Knowing the seriousness of the situation, Qin Lu immediately took his wife to see his father after learning that the land had been mortgaged.
Qin Feng had just finished work at the company and was about to go out for a social event when his wife and son arrived.
"Why aren't you going home? What are you doing here?"
"Dad, I have something to tell you." Qin Lu's expression was solemn.
Qin Feng didn't notice his expression and simply said...
"I have another social engagement, I'll talk about it when I get home."
"I can't wait." Seeing that he was unmoved, Qin Lu said directly, "It's about that piece of land."
Qin Feng was stunned. The only piece of land that the Qin family owned now was the one they had acquired in a few years ago.
What happened to that piece of land?
Qin Lu glanced at his assistants and secretary around him. "Let's talk in your office."
Qin Feng thought for a moment, then asked his secretary to arrange for someone else from the company to attend the social event on his behalf. He then took Qin Lu and his mother into his office.
"Tell me, what's wrong with that piece of land?"
"That land was mortgaged by Mom, and now we need 80 million to redeem it," Qin Lu got straight to the point.
"Eighty million?" Qin Feng's voice changed, and he looked coldly at his wife. "You went to the casino again?"
"I..." Mrs. Qin knew she had gone too far this time, and dared not argue.
"You lost, so what? You still dare to mortgage that land?" Qin Feng was furious, his face turning ashen. Even when the Qin family was in its most difficult time, he didn't dare to touch that land.
As long as the Qin family has enough funds, developing that land will bring very considerable returns.
However, due to the withdrawal of investment from the Fu family, the project had to be put on hold.
She actually... she actually mortgaged it and lost it all.
“Dad, now is not the time to pursue these matters. The repayment deadline has arrived. Let’s get the land deed back first,” Qin Lu reminded him.
While the mother was certainly at fault in this matter, the most pressing issue now is not the time to argue about these things.
Qin Feng glared fiercely at his silent wife, "What oath did you make last year?"
Not only did he gamble again, he also mortgaged his land to borrow money.
"I wanted to win back some money and help my family a little, but who knew..." Mrs. Qin muttered softly.
Initially, I had the idea of helping my family, but it was mainly because I wanted to go myself.
"Dad, the other party is a loan shark. If we don't pay back the money, I'm afraid there will be problems with that land." Qin Lu urged anxiously. The Qin family can't afford any more trouble now.
Qin Feng sighed helplessly and said to Mrs. Qin.
"Now, contact the person who lent you the money and get the land deed back."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Qin quickly took out her phone and made a call.
"Mr. Hou, I am Mrs. Qin. Is it convenient for us to meet now?"
"Oh, it's Mrs. Qin. Your loan repayment was due yesterday, and I haven't been able to reach you for days."
"I contacted you as soon as I got back to the country today. Let's meet somewhere. I'll return that money to you with interest, and you can give me back the mortgage agreement and the land deed," Mrs. Qin said, both amused and exasperated.
The other person smiled and said after hearing her words.
"Mrs. Qin, you don't need to repay this money."
"You don't need to pay it back? What do you mean?" Mrs. Qin pressed.
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng coldly rebuked him.
"Turn on speakerphone."
Mrs. Qin glanced at him, turned on speakerphone, and heard the other party say.
“We have an agreement: you deposit the land deed with me, and I will lend you the money. If you repay the money on time, the land deed will be returned to you. If you fail to repay on time, the land deed will belong to me.”
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng snatched the phone and said...
"We will return the money we owe you, but that land is worth far more than 80 million. How dare you seize even the Qin family's property?"
The other person was startled by his shout and took a long time to speak.
"But someone else has already taken a liking to that piece of land and bought it."
"Who bought it?" Qin Feng pressed.
The other party thought for a moment and then said.
"Mrs. Fu".
