Lin Haoran hurriedly stepped forward and blocked the Lin family's gate with his body, pleading, "Lawyer, why is this happening?"
The lawyer replied helplessly, "Didn't anyone tell you that you messed with the wrong person?"
Could it be Lin An again? But the Dong family's business has already moved to the port area, so strictly speaking, it's not a company in Shanghai anymore. He couldn't believe that Lin An could affect it. Undeterred, Lin Haoran asked:
"Can't you be a little more accommodating? Besides, two days is really too tight. I can't raise that much money even if you force me to."
The lawyer scoffed, thinking to himself, "The college entrance exam only lasts two days; does going bankrupt depend on when?"
"No, just two days! If you don't have money, you can sell your house and car. If you don't sell, the court will come to your door to seize them. When it comes to the judicial auction stage, your assets will be even less valuable."
"You...you..." Lin Haoran was shocked by his words. Selling the house and the car, wouldn't that mean bankruptcy?
Lin Haoran felt as if he had been struck by lightning!
how so?
How could Lin An, a mere individual, have such extensive connections that he could get the Dong family to intervene?
Why should he be the one to revolve around someone? He's just a rebellious son whom I despise, a little brat who can't even get a shred of sincerity from me even if he kneels down and begs. Why should everyone revolve around him?
The lawyer, already annoyed, pushed Lin Haoran aside, went out, got into his car, and left.
Lin Hao looked at the Lin family villa in front of him and pounded his chest in frustration!
Bankruptcy and closure!
No! Absolutely not!
The Lin family company is the business he has worked his whole life for, and it should be carried forward and made to great heights so that he can become an object of respect for everyone.
It cannot go bankrupt!
"Where's Lin Xia? Where is she? Tell her to contact Dong Shu right away!" Lin Haoran yelled at Zhang Wanru.
He wanted to make a final stand, betting that Dong Shu was willing to defy the Dong family for Lin Xia's sake.
Zhang Wanru's face was ashen, and she was barely breathing when she blurted out, "Lin Xia has run away from home."
"What? How can you be a mother? How can you manage a household? Not a single one of you is any good!" Lin Haoran roared angrily.
He couldn't understand why one or two of them wanted to leave home.
Zhang Wanru was inexplicably yelled at, and her anger surged up. It was clearly Lin Haoran's fault, so why was she being blamed?
She retorted, "It's all your fault! You said that whoever goes to see Lin An will never be allowed to enter the Lin family again. You drove my daughter away. The Lin family's current predicament is all your fault!"
Lin Haoran never expected that Zhang Wanru would dare to argue and talk back to him so boldly, saying without any politeness:
"How dare you blame me? If you hadn't given birth to this bastard, none of this would have happened."
"You're talking nonsense! You bet on the wrong horse, you chose Lin Zhe over Lin An. You never expected that I would be so successful, while your illegitimate child with that bastard is a piece of trash."
Zhang Wanru hit Lin Haoran where it hurts. She's not afraid of anything now. The Lin family is about to go bankrupt. Once they're liquidated, without the luxury cars and villas, what will Lin Haoran be? Couples are like birds in the same forest; when disaster strikes, they fly away separately.
Lin Haoran was so angry that he lost his temper and kicked over the sun lounger in the yard: "Damn it, everyone's against me!"
He suddenly remembered that he had an outstanding eldest daughter: "Where is Lin Wan?"
Zhang Wanru stopped responding to him and started thinking about what valuable things in the house she could quickly take, exchange them for money, and run away.
"Where is Lin Wan?" Lin Haoran roared again.
Seeing the tense standoff between her parents, Lin Rou didn't know what to do and whispered, "My eldest sister has also run away from home."
Lin Haoran laughed in exasperation, almost maniacally: "Fine, fine, they're all gone. Get out! Get out!"
He was seething with anger, and grabbed Zhang Wanru by the collar:
"These are the fine children you've raised!"
“Take out your secret stash of money and use it to cover the Lin family’s losses.”
When the topic of secret savings came up, Zhang Wanru panicked and vehemently denied it: "I don't have any secret savings. You've already squandered all of my dowry."
Lin Haoran chuckled coldly, exposing her lie:
"Stop talking nonsense. Do you think I'm stupid? Lin Tianyou will reward you with ten million for every child you have. Six children, sixty million. Where's the money? Give it to me."
Zhang Wanru kicked Lin Haoran hard, and Lin Haoran released his grip in pain.
"You're even eyeing this money? Are you even a man? I was blind to marry a piece of trash like you. If I had known this would happen, I should have left the Lin family with Lin An."
Lin Haoran lost his temper and slapped Zhang Wanru hard, making Lin Rou tremble with fear.
"You dare hit me! I'll fight you to the death!" Zhang Wanru lunged at him like a madwoman.
In an instant, the couple started fighting, and the courtyard of the Lin family villa became their battlefield, a chaotic mess.
"Mom and Dad, please stop! Please, please stop!" Lin Rou cried out from the side.
The two exchanged blows without holding back, and Zhang Wanru, being in poor health and a woman, quickly found herself at a disadvantage.
Seeing her mother beaten black and blue, Lin Rou rushed in to break up the fight.
"Dad, stop hitting him!"
Lin Haoran completely lost his mind and went berserk. Suddenly, he raised his leg and kicked Lin Rou in the stomach.
"ah!"
Lin Rou, who had taken a solid kick, let out a scream and fell backward.
Butler Li couldn't bear to watch any longer and went to help Lin Rou up, only to see a pool of red blood seeping through her skirt. He immediately understood what had happened.
"Stop fighting! Miss has miscarried!" Butler Li shouted angrily, and the couple who were fighting finally stopped and regained their senses.
When Zhang Wanru saw the red mark on her daughter's dress, she burst into tears, crying out, "Oh, my daughter! Even tigers don't eat their cubs!"
A hint of guilt flashed across Lin Haoran's face, but it quickly disappeared. Anyway, it was all going to be lost, so what if it was gone?
Lin Rou, pale-faced, slumped weakly on the ground. Zhang Wanru cried and cursed, lamenting her miserable life and cursing Lin Haoran for being inhuman.
Lin Haoran was scratched bloody by Zhang Wanru, with bloody marks all over his face and neck. He stood to the side without saying a word.
Butler Li shook his head. "A bunch of good-for-nothings. The Lin family is completely finished." He took out his phone and dialed 120 for Lin Rou.
Lin Haoran stood there stunned for a few minutes, as if he had suddenly figured something out. He quickly walked into the room, went up to the study on the second floor, and headed straight for the safe.
After entering a password, the safe opened, and Lin Haoran took out a black briefcase.
The suitcase contained Lin Haoran's treasured possessions, some valuable antiques left by Lin Tianyou, which could be exchanged for a large sum of money. Lin Haoran knew that these things were his future means of turning his life around, and he absolutely could not allow them to be seized by the court.
Lin Haoran carried his suitcase and walked out of the house.
