Chapter 822: A Phoenix in Trouble Is Worse than a Chicken



Seeing the woman silent, Jun Li laughed and said, "Why, you got in my car, asked me for help, and even asked me to protect your sister-in-law, but you didn't even dare to tell me her name?"

"Li Ke."

"Li Ke?"

Jun Li said while driving: "I seem to have heard of this name."

Li Ke was silent for a moment and then said, "Yongtai Carton is the name of my company. We used to be the leader in this industry. Ever since my father cheated on my mother, divorced her, and remarried, our company's business has been getting worse and worse."

"So it's the Yongtai Carton Company. Your father is Li Yongtai, right?"

Yongtai’s company name is the boss’s name.

Li Ke hummed, "It's my dad."

Jun Li didn't ask any further questions, he knew everything that happened next.

Yongtai Carton Company has been doing bad business in recent years. Customers have frequently complained about the poor quality of its cartons. The company also often makes mistakes in the sizes of its cartons, which then have to be returned by customers and remade. The losses are getting bigger and bigger.

Two months ago, Yongtai Carton Company went bankrupt and closed down. I heard that it owed a lot of debts.

It took exactly thirty years for the once giant cardboard company, which went from being the leader in the industry, to go bankrupt.

It's really sad.

"My dad and that bitch both love to gamble and travel the world, living a life of luxury. They don't put any effort into managing the company and don't let me join. That bitch is afraid that I'll take power, so she instigated my dad to stop me from joining the company."

"After she married my dad, she arranged for her family members to take up important positions in the company and make money. My dad listened to her and was wary of his own children, but trusted outsiders. They messed with the company, causing business to decline. And my dad also took that bitch on gambling sprees, accumulating a huge gambling debt that he was unable to repay."

When Li Ke talked about these things, she was filled with hatred. She hated her father's ruthlessness and disloyalty, and also hated herself for not being able to turn the tide. It should be said that she didn't even have a chance to turn the tide.

Her parents divorced when she was sixteen.

My sister was only six years old and my brother was only two years old.

Since the three siblings were minors at the time, their father was powerful, and their stepmother was vicious and overbearing, and had a firm control over their father, if the stepmother had not been unable to have her own children, she would have been able to get pregnant, but every time she got pregnant for more than two months, she would have miscarried.

After having several miscarriages in a row, her stepmother became unable to have children anymore.

Li Ke felt that it was retribution for being a stepmother.

Because the bitch interfered with her parents' family, instigated her father to seize the custody of her three siblings, and deliberately prevented her siblings from being with their mother, making her mother agonize.

So, that bitch got her retribution and will never be able to be a mother in her life.

Fortunately, the bitch can't have children, so her father doesn't abuse them in life.

But it only took ten years.

Now, her father is being chased for debts by people from the casino every day. The house has been smashed beyond recognition. Her father also had half of his fingers chopped off by the debt collectors, who said that if her father doesn't pay back the money, they will chop off his hands and feet.

And her good stepmother, because she had taken good care of herself and was quite pretty, was forced by debt collectors to work as a hostess in a nightclub to earn money to pay off her debts.

It was the good stepmother who told those people that her two sisters were very beautiful and that they could make a lot of money by selling them to a nightclub. The frightened father actually agreed to hand her two sisters over to those villains to repay his debts.

Fortunately, my younger brother heard it.

Her brother told her, and she quietly escaped from home with her brother and sister-in-law.

Fortunately, it is still summer vacation, so it doesn’t affect my younger siblings’ schooling.

She hid her brothers and sisters in a small town, and she showed up herself to attract the debt collectors to focus on her, so that her brothers and sisters would be safe.

Li Ke thought that he was just struggling to survive and would fall into the hands of the villains in just a few days.

Unexpectedly, the car I hurriedly got on belonged to the third young master of the Jun family.

If Jun Li is willing to lend a helping hand and allow the three siblings to live in Fengchen Villa, it would indeed be safe.

"I've heard your dad loves gambling. When he wins, he can win hundreds of thousands of dollars in a single night. When he loses, he can lose hundreds of thousands of dollars in a single night. He actually managed to lose an entire company."

"Where's your mother?"

Jun Li asked, "You guys haven't tried to find your mother yet?"

Li Ke said embarrassedly, "My mother remarried ten years ago, six months after her divorce. She is now living happily with my stepfather and has given birth to a son and a daughter. After learning that our family went bankrupt, my mother only had someone bring me 20,000 yuan and told us not to disturb her new life."

The father is not kind and the mother is already married.

She could only flee alone with her younger siblings.

Jun Li: “…I’m sorry.”

He didn't pay much attention to the affairs of Yongtai Carton Company. Besides, ten years ago, he had just entered society and didn't have the time to care about who got divorced.

If Yongtai Carton Company had not gone bankrupt, Junli would not have paid attention to this company.

No wonder Li Ke recognized him.

She was once a rich girl.

"Third Master, you don't have to apologize. I'm fine. I've been through so much in just a few months and I've already become numb. I'm just worried about my brother and sister-in-law's future."

"Third Young Master, does your family need a servant? I'd be happy to be your servant. It's okay if the wages are low. Just allow my sister-in-law to live in Fengchen Villa for a long time. Until my brother can support the family, we will move out of Fengchen Villa."

Li Ke naturally wanted to seize the opportunity to get rid of the debt collectors.

You can say she is thick-skinned or you can say she is scheming.

She just hugged Jun Li’s thick thighs!

"What town or village did you say?"

Li Ke said it again.

Jun Li restarted the navigation, re-entered the address, and then said, "We don't lack servants. They have been working in my house for a long time. If no one leaves, there will be no room for them."

"Did you lose your job too?"

"Well, the debt collectors are extremely vicious. I used to work in a company. My income wasn't particularly high, but it was enough for my daily pocket money. Now, I've lost my job. When I fled with my brothers and sisters, I packed up some valuables and took them with me."

"As for the three of us, my siblings and I, we can actually support ourselves for a while."

After all, she was once a girl from a wealthy family, and the pocket money saved by Li Ke and her two siblings was enough to support them for a while.

"My dad sold off a lot of my bags and jewelry. Otherwise, he could have taken away even more valuable things."

Jun Li: “…”

Li Ke is now like a phoenix in distress, worse than a chicken.

"After you pick up your brother and sister-in-law, you can stay at my house for a while. When the storm has passed, you can go find a job."

Jun Li felt that he was being righteous and was willing to provide the brother and sister with a safe place to hide from the storm, which was already a great help to Li Ke. He no longer cared about Li Ke's work.
