That night, Zhuang Li panted and asked condescendingly: “Do you like this reward?”
Xuan Ming hugged his head, pressed him to himself, kissed him passionately, and said intermittently: “I like it very much!”
“Did you make money?” Zhuang Li smiled evilly while making trouble.
Xuan Ming, who was nearly strangled to death, couldn’t help but growl.
“I made a good deal. Now the whole world belongs to me.” He hugged the little curly-haired boy tightly, his dark eyes tinged with madness.
“You know, you are my whole world too.” Zhuang Li whispered very gently into his lover’s hot ear.
….
As soon as Zhuang Dahai and Chang Hui returned home after getting their divorce certificate, a group of creditors showed up at their door, throwing paint and hanging banners, clamoring for Zhuang Li to pay back the money.
Zhuang Dahai, who had already called his son to confirm that the money had been paid off, was furious and chased these people with a mop.
Chang Hui took out the divorce certificate and immediately cut off all ties with him. She then returned to her room to pack up her things with a gloating look on her face. She also called her son and described Zhuang Dahai’s predicament in vivid detail: “He owes his life to his son. No one would come to collect his body when he died. Fortunately, I divorced him and got back the one million you lent to Zhuang Li.”
Chang Dongming was stunned and asked hurriedly, “Mom, you divorced Uncle Zhuang? And you asked for my money back? Didn’t I tell you not to force Uncle Zhuang and Zhuang Li? Why didn’t you listen?”
Just as Chang Hui was about to reply, Chang Dongming hurriedly said, “Forget it, forget it. You wait at home, I’ll be back soon!”
Chang Dongming dropped his work and ran out without even taking a vacation.
He saw it when Xuan Ming brought Zhuang Li into the company in the morning. The two policemen also followed them to the R&D department and never appeared again.
He felt that something was wrong and wanted to go to the R&D department to inquire about the situation but found that his access card was not working. An unfamiliar security guard told him that there might be a system failure and asked him to wait a while before coming back. He also asked him many questions.
When he mentioned that he was Zhuang Li’s elder brother and wanted to go in to see his younger brother, the fierce-looking security guard actually softened his eyes.
Most people would not notice this subtle change in expression, but Chang Dongming had a premonition about this, so he quickly realized something.
Zhuang Li was really rich to be able to change the security system of Haiming Group! That prophetic dream was going to come true!
This thought made Chang Dongming be immersed in ecstasy for the whole day, but the call from his mother made him fall into an ice cave in a second.
When he rushed out of the company, he suddenly had an idea and said to the strange security guard who stopped him and refused to let him go: “A lot of people came to my house to collect debts. I’m worried that something might happen to my parents. Please make some concessions.”
This person obviously knew who he was and let him go immediately, while the others could not leave the company without the approval of their leader.
Chang Dongming stood on the roadside hailing a taxi. From time to time, he turned his head and looked at the towering building of Haiming Group. He always felt that it had become particularly majestic and cold today.
As expected, as soon as he arrived at his doorstep, he saw the troublemakers being arrested by a group of policemen. They handcuffed them one by one and said sternly, “We are arresting you for provoking disturbances! If you have anything else, come back to the police station and talk!”
“Zhuang Li owes us money!” a middle-aged woman screamed.
Neighbors living on both sides of the corridor opened their doors and looked over curiously.
Zhuang Dahai immediately shouted: “My son said he has paid back the money!”
“Did he really pay it off? He must be kidding. Zhuang Li owes more than 100 million!” The neighbors were talking about it, with the word “suspicion” written all over their faces.
Zhuang Dahai was so angry that smoke was coming out of his head, but he didn’t know how to explain.
Instead, the police threw the shouting woman against the wall and deliberately raised their voices, saying, “As far as we know, Mr. Zhuang Li has indeed paid back all your money. We still have a copy of the debt settlement contract you signed in our bureau. You are slandering people and you will be held legally responsible!”
“Wow, he actually paid it off!” The neighbors were stunned.
To them, 180 million was an astronomical figure that they could not pay off in several lifetimes, but they did not expect that Zhuang Li was so capable and turned things around in just a few days!
“We are making trouble because Zhuang Li is illegally raising funds!” another creditor shouted indignantly.
“Nonsense! We’ve seen the contract you signed. It’s clearly crowdfunding, which is different from illegal financing! Go away, you took the money and came to smash people’s doors. This is trespassing and provoking trouble! Take you all back to detention!”
The leading policeman waved his hand and the group of creditors were taken away.
The neighbors looked at each other, then quickly closed the door and went back to their houses. After all this time, Zhuang Li had nothing to worry about, and they thought Zhuang Li was done for this time!
Seeing this abnormal scene, Chang Dongming had nothing to understand. He blushed and called Zhuang Dahai “Dad”, then pulled Chang Hui into the bedroom, locked the door, and asked almost collapsed: “Mom, have you really divorced Uncle Zhuang? And you took my one million back?”
“How could it be fake? Look, here are a check and a divorce certificate. Mom is capable, right?” Chang Hui happily took out the two things.
Chang Dongming suddenly collapsed on the bed, pounding the mattress with his fists, then rolled around and kicked wildly, just like a child who was so aggrieved that he could only roll on the ground.
Chang Hui was stunned and asked hurriedly, “Son, what’s wrong with you? Where does it hurt?”
“My heart hurts! Oh my god! My heart hurts so much that it’s about to burst! Do you know what you have done? Huh?” Chang Dongming got up and said quickly with red eyes: “Zhuang Li’s company has been acquired by our company 100%! Did you see those policemen? They are all here to help Zhuang Li settle the matter! He is rich now!”
“Are you crazy? How could the police help Zhuang Li?” Chang Hui waved her hands disapprovingly.
“Your lending of money to Zhuang Li is financing or crowdfunding, don’t you know? For raising 180 million, you will have to go to jail for at least ten years, but Zhuang Li is fine. Can’t you see the reality? Do you know what the future will be like if his company is acquired by our company?”
“Come on, let me do the math for you. His company’s registered capital is five million. If I didn’t take this one million back, it means that I own 20% of his company. The company was acquired by Haiming Group, and it will definitely get a large order from Haiming Group. I dare not say how much, but it is no problem to make 20 million a year. According to the dividends based on the shares, I can make 4 million a year! Mom, if I invest one million, I can get 4 million at the end of the year. Do you understand?”
“When our company’s president Xuan went to pay back the money to Manager Zhuang, didn’t you see it? Couldn’t you call me and tell me? Four million a year, eight million in two years, twelve million in three years! In less than five years, I could buy a big house in City B! Mom, you’ve killed me, don’t you know?”
Chang Dongming lay back on the bed, clutching the clothes on his chest and wailing: “Mom, you have ruined my future! I told you long ago that Zhuang Li would definitely make it through, and he would definitely become successful, but you didn’t believe me!”
He rolled around on the bed, waving his fists and kicking his legs like a desperate child.
Anyone who had waited five years to realize his dream of getting rich but failed at the last minute would collapse like him.
Chang Hui’s smug expression twisted into one of fear and regret, but she stubbornly said, “How do you know that Zhuang Li has become successful? That CEO Xuan didn’t say he wanted to acquire his company!”
“Don’t talk! I get annoyed when I see you!” Chang Dongming roared with his face red and neck thick.
Chang Hui was also angry and was about to teach her son a lesson when she heard the sound of many people talking outside. When she opened the door, she saw a group of tall and strong men in black suits helping Zhuang Dahai move things in the house.
“What happened?” Chang Hui hurried out.
Chang Dongming stopped rolling around and looked at these people with red eyes.
Zhuang Dahai said cheerfully, “They are here to help me move. My son’s company was acquired by Haiming Group, and they just received 2 billion investment and a large villa. If you two don’t have a place to live, you don’t have to move for the time being. I’ll leave first.”
Zhuang Dahai opened his phone and pulled up a news page. He said with great pride, “Look, look quickly. My son’s company is now a subsidiary of Haiming Group! My son is now the president!”
“I don’t want this furniture anymore. Just wait for my son to come back and buy me new ones.” Zhuang Dahai waved his hand, looking very generous.
“Okay, Mr. Zhuang. We will carry your bag for you. You walk in the middle, which is safer.” The group of men in black quickly surrounded Zhuang Dahai and walked towards the elevator.
The creditors besieged the Zhuang family, and they dared not leave Mr. Zhuang’s father in this troubled place. If the United States took advantage of the situation, they would not be able to explain to their superiors.
As for Chang Hui, she had just divorced Mr. Zhuang. She was not worried if anything happened to Mr. Zhuang and she even signed the joint complaint. It was obvious that she had a bad relationship with Mr. Zhuang and did not need protection.
As she was thinking this, the group of people had already walked away.
With so many people coming to the Zhuang family and the noise of moving things around, the surrounding neighbors were alarmed again. After inquiring for a while, they realized that Zhuang Li’s company had been acquired by Haiming Group, and the acquisition price was as high as 2 billion!
Zhuang Dahai was blessed in his old age! His son had become rich! He had gone from a bankrupt loser to a rising star in the business world in an instant!
“Oh my God! How great it would be if this was my son!” The old man living opposite muttered enviously.
“Chang Hui and Zhuang Dahai divorced just this morning! She was only one step away from becoming a wealthy lady! Haha, this woman really needs to have a conscience. Zhuang Dahai was very good to them, mother and son, but as soon as the Zhuang family fell into trouble, she ran away with the money. Now she is getting her retribution!” The old man’s wife said gloatingly.
The neighbors opened the door and secretly observed Chang Hui’s expression, with pity and contempt hidden in their eyes.
Chang Hui was stunned for a long moment before she tremblingly opened her phone and checked the news page. Sure enough, she saw the news that Haiming Group acquired Zhuang Li’s company for 2 billion and changed its name to “Mingli Technology”.
Zhuang Li was really rich! If his company could earn 20 million a year, her son could get 4 million! As his stepmother, she could also live in a big villa with him!
But now there was nothing! It was all over!
Chang Hui screamed, then took out the divorce certificate, tore it into pieces while chasing him, and cried, “Zhuang Dahai, I don’t want a divorce, did you hear me? I don’t want a divorce! Don’t you dislike me for not doing housework? I will take care of all the housework from now on! I promise to take care of Zhuang Li as if he were my own son, please give me another chance! Zhuang Dahai, Zhuang Dahai…”
Chang Dongming watched indifferently as his mother ran out without any dignity, then closed the door under the sympathetic gazes of the neighbors and went back to the bedroom to continue rolling around.
Ahhh! His bright future was ruined again! Ruined again!
