Chapter 105(1/2)
Being tricked
In Hu Rong's view, an excellent man never belongs to just one woman. As Chen Nan is so outstanding and rich, it is normal for him to have a few more women.
Poor losers are indeed easily available, but who wants them?
If you want to compete for good men, you have to bear strong pressure.
Even Ji Man, a popular goddess, is blatantly vying for Chen Nan, so why should she save face? Just put down her body and chase after her with all her strength.
Quitting when faced with difficulties?
That is a label unique to the weak.
A strong person will only face difficulties, even if there are no difficulties, he will face them even if they create difficulties.
She, Hu Rong, has always been a strong person.
Time flies by.
Summer vacation comes with rare sustained high temperatures.
Compared with Lecheng University, the summer vacation of Lecheng University of Communication comes earlier, after all, the study pressure is not so great. Seeing that her roommates began to leave school one after another, Li Xuemei also packed her things and prepared to go home. Her plan was to first
Stay home for a few days, and then embark on the journey of observing and learning at a film and television company.
When I was about to leave the dormitory, the phone suddenly rang.
It was my mother calling.
After answering the phone, Li Xuemei was a little confused.
Mom said that the high temperature has been continuing in my hometown and the epidemic is serious. She told me not to go home for the time being? She told me not to leave school?
For this reason, you also gave me 10,000 yuan?
Didn’t she say the day before yesterday that I should go home as soon as possible after the holiday, and then our family would go to escape the summer heat together?
Li Xuemei keenly felt that something must have happened at home.
She was not allowed to go home because she was afraid that she would also be implicated.
After calling back and asking again and again, my mother finally told the truth.
It turned out that her father's business went bankrupt and she owed countless debts. Many creditors were chasing and intercepting their family, and their residence was under heavy surveillance.
In desperation, the family could only hide temporarily.
The couple hid in their grandparents' house.
And her sister Li Xuejuan is hiding in her uncle's house further away.
Dad has not eaten or drank for two whole days, and has only smoked one cigarette after another. No matter how hard he tries to persuade him, it is useless.
After saying this, my mother's voice choked up.
…………
Li Xuemei was directly petrified.
In her heart, her father is the God of the family and her God.
But now, the sky has fallen!
She couldn't believe it. For more than 20 years, her father had been in business and he had always been on thin ice. He had always been kind to others. He needed experience and connections. How could he suddenly go bankrupt in just two days?
There must be something fishy about this.
She must go back immediately to figure things out!
Otherwise, you will definitely feel unsatisfied with food and unable to sleep at night.
After deciding, Li Xuemei set off immediately.
Her hometown, along with her grandparents and uncle's family, is in Yangcheng, which is only a hundred kilometers away from Lecheng and only takes half an hour by train.
Li Xuemei went directly to her grandparents’ house.
The weather was so hot that people were crazy, the wind blowing in the face was full of heat waves, and the whole world seemed like a sauna.
Wiping the sweat from her forehead, she started knocking on the door.
But there was no response.
If you add some more force, the sound of the waves will remain the same.
Could it be...
impossible!
It's just a debt.
Li Xuemei's heart trembled and she quickly dialed her mother's phone number.
The call was quickly connected, and my mother's voice was trembling: "Xuemei, are you okay? Don't scare Mom."
Li Xuemei breathed a sigh of relief and almost burst into tears.
You can imagine that my mother must look like a frightened bird now. These days, she is burdened with too much pressure: worried about her husband's health, worried about her daughter being targeted, worried about creditors blocking the door again...
"Mom, where have you been? Why is there no one at grandma's house?"
"Xuemei is back? Was you knocking on the door just now?"
On the other end of the phone, there was a rush of footsteps.
The door finally opened from the inside out.
The moment she saw her mother, Li Xuemei couldn't bear it anymore. She threw herself into her arms and cried: "Mom, is dad okay?"
"Get in the house quickly!"
Mother quickly pulled Li Xuemei into the house.
Before closing the door, he looked around a few times in fear.
As if someone is following my daughter.
…………
"Grandpa, grandma and Xuejuan were all taken over by your uncle to live here. Your dad and I are the only ones here."
"What about dad?"
"He locked himself in the room and refused to leave the room no matter what. He didn't eat for two whole days, and if he continues like this, his body will collapse. Xuemei, your father and you are the best people to talk to. Please hurry up and persuade him."
Advise him."
Li Xuemei opened a bedroom.
When she saw the man sitting in the smoke clearly, she was stunned!
His face was full of disbelief.
The man in front of me with gray hair, dull eyes, and a lifeless face is his elegant, handsome, and high-spirited father?
"dad!"
Li Xuemei burst into tears and screamed in pain.
Regardless of her mother's obstruction, she quickly opened all the windows and adjusted the wind power and speed of the room's air conditioner to the maximum.
Smoking indoors with doors and windows closed is extremely harmful.
Your life is almost gone, why should you be afraid of creditors?
If someone really wants to find you, what's the use of closing the window?
How is it different from hiding one's ears and stealing the bell?
Isn’t this self-deception?
In less than five minutes, the smoke in the room dissipated.
The man who was shrouded in clouds and fog finally became clear.
But no matter how Li Xuemei shouted or pushed, he didn't respond, and he didn't even notice that the cigarette burned his fingers.
…………
My most beloved father has actually become like this?
Li Xuemei couldn't accept it. She wiped away her tears fiercely, stood up straight, and looked at her mother calmly: "Mom, what is going on?"
Wu Cuilian sighed: "Alas! Your father has been cheated."
"Who was tricked?"
it is as expected!
"One day a month ago, a friend from the business field suddenly came to the door and said that there was a way to make a lot of money. After repeated inspections, your father felt that the way was indeed good. Because it was just a one-off transaction, he could lose everything in one go.
All the assets were mortgaged and some loan sharks were borrowed. Unexpectedly..."
At this point, my mother sighed again.
