Chapter 547:

"My mother went back to City B without saying a word. I, I didn't see Mr. Qin."

Perhaps out of guilt or overexcitement, Mrs. Chen's voice was trembling slightly.

The disappointed Chen Yuanhong didn't notice it, or perhaps he didn't have time to pay attention to his wife's strange behavior. He was now at a loss as to what to do.

Just half an hour ago, the company's stock price hit the limit down!

The stocks he had previously pledged to the bank were no longer sufficient to cover the debt, and the bank had issued an ultimatum: either continue to use shares to make up the difference or pay back the money.

He no longer has any shares, and even if he did, it would be impossible for him to pledge them to the bank.

As for paying back the money, let alone 1 billion, he can't even come up with 10 million now.

After watching Chen Yuanhong hurriedly go to Chen Guoan's study, Mrs. Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief. She was about to go upstairs to her bedroom when Chen Yue beside her suddenly said, "Mom, are you taking me to the Qin family to ask them to help Dad?"

Mrs. Chen touched her daughter's head lovingly and said, "Yueyue, you are still young. Your grandfather, father, and brother will take care of the family affairs. Just focus on your studies and don't worry about anything else."

Although Chen Yue is not mature enough at her age, she is not completely ignorant.

She looked at her mother with a questioning look in her eyes, "Did you reach some kind of agreement with the Qin family without Dad's knowledge?"

Mrs. Chen's heart suddenly skipped a beat and she subconsciously looked around. Seeing that there was no one around, she hurriedly pulled Chen Yue back to the bedroom upstairs.

After locking the bedroom door, Mrs. Chen looked at her daughter in panic, "Yueyue, what do you know?"

Chen Yue shook her head gently, "Mom, before at the Qin residence, the old housekeeper said, 'Everything is in accordance with the previously negotiated conditions.' You obviously already contacted the Qin family a long time ago, why didn't you tell Dad?"

Why? Of course it’s because of money.

She held in her hands a huge fortune that was enough for her and her daughter to live a life of luxury, and she had to keep it.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Chen's panicked heartbeat gradually calmed down, "Yueyue, you must believe that no matter what mom does, it is for your own good."

Chen Yue showed an expression of incomprehension, "What about Dad and the others? Dad has doted on you for more than ten years and has never done anything to let you down. Can you bear to see Dad fall into trouble and become haggard day and night? Don't you feel sorry for him?"

Mrs. Chen felt uncomfortable with her daughter's words and said in a bad tone, "In order to help your father, I sold all the real estate, jewelry, and financial funds that were originally intended for your future dowry. I even transferred my jade beads to someone else. Haven't I done enough? You don't know how people outside talk about me and laugh at me. Even the wives who used to flatter me are deliberately alienating me and avoiding me."

As Mrs. Chen spoke, tears of grievance welled up in her eyes.

Chen Yue sighed, walked forward, took her hand and comforted her, "The upper class society is a place of fame and fortune where everyone competes with each other. Everything is based on interests. No one is sincere. If you don't want to associate with them, then don't associate with them. There's nothing to regret.

Although the situation at home is not good now, as long as we work together, we will definitely be able to overcome the difficulties. Mom, don't you want those people who laughed at you and alienated you to gather around you again and flatter you like before?"

Mrs. Chen stared at her daughter in amazement, speechless.

Of course she wanted to, but what if the Chen family didn't make it this time? Moreover, even if they managed to make it, they would be seriously injured, and it was unknown how many years it would take to regain their glory.

By then, she would have become an old woman, and the Chen family would definitely be headed by Chen Wenhao, the eldest son. Chen Wenhao had always disliked her, so how could he let her have an easy life? "Yueyue, there are some things you don't understand yet. You will understand them when you grow up. Mom also has her own difficulties."

Seeing Mrs. Chen's stubbornness, Chen Yue felt extremely disappointed. "Mom, when my sister came to see you at Dad's birthday party last time, why did you lie and say that she was my aunt's daughter? And grandma, why didn't you take me to see grandma earlier? The gift grandma gave me was a..."

"Yueyue, I'll tell you about these things later. You still have classes in the afternoon, so go back to your room and get some rest."

Chen Yue returned to her bedroom in a depressed mood and sat there in a daze for a while. Then she remembered that the white jade pendant was still in the car, so she went downstairs to the garage to get it.

When I passed the living room on my way to the garage, I vaguely heard the voices of my father and grandfather coming from the study.

She stood there for a while and did something that was against etiquette and education for the first time in her life: eavesdropping.

Chen Yuanhong: "Mr. Qin refused to see Ah Shan, it seems that he is determined to stand aside and not help the Chen family.

How about asking the Mo family for help? I don’t know if Mo Shaochen is dead or alive now. If he is still alive, he still owes our Chen family a favor for what happened 20 years ago.”

Chen Guoan: "It has been 20 years since this happened. At that time, we had already received a huge benefit and promised Master Mo that we would not owe each other anything.

If you bring up the past again at this time, and anger the Mo family again, the Chen family will be doomed!"

Chen Yuanhong: "Dad, I have actually been wondering for a while now, who is targeting our Chen family? After thinking about it, I still suspect the three famous families.

Although the Qin family is not involved in the business world, they can hand this matter over to a private equity firm. "

Hearing this, Chen Yue couldn't help but show up, "It wasn't done by the Qin family."

Seeing Chen Yue standing at the door of the study, Chen Yuanhong and Chen Guoan were both stunned.

The Chen family father and son have always loved their smart and well-behaved daughter (granddaughter). Even though they knew she was eavesdropping, they did not get angry with her.

Chen Yuanhong said in a rare serious tone: "Yueyue, your grandfather and I have something important to discuss. Go back to your room to study. Rest when you are tired. Be obedient."

Chen Guoan stared at his granddaughter thoughtfully, "She is not young anymore, and she should know the actual situation at home. Yueyue, come in."

Chen Yuanhong didn't quite agree with the old man's idea.

Chen Yue is not even 15 years old and she is a girl. Even if she knew about the difficulties at home, what could she do? It would only affect her studies.

Chen Yuanhong himself is not good at studying, and his son is a playboy and idler. It is rare for his family to have such an outstanding talent as Chen Yue. He hopes that Chen Yue can be admitted to the top university in the future so that he can be proud of himself.

"Dad, Yueyue is only in junior high school. Isn't it too early to let her get in touch with these things now?"

Chen Guoan ignored his son's worries. He looked at Chen Yue kindly, "Yueyue, why did you say it wasn't done by the Qin family?"

Chen Yue's pretty and tender face was slightly wrinkled, revealing an expression of obvious struggle and hesitation.

Chen Guoan said in a gentle tone: "It doesn't matter, just say whatever you think. Even if you say something wrong, grandpa won't blame you."

Chen Yuanhong, who was standing by, also noticed that his daughter seemed to know something and kept silent.

The reason why Chen Yue stood up was simply because she wanted to protect her sister Tang Qi.

Tang Qi is from the Qin family, and she is from the Chen family. She doesn't want the two families to become enemies.

I wish you all a happy Chinese Valentine's Day~
