That night, Zhuang Li panted heavily and asked condescendingly, "Do you like this reward?"
Xuan Ming held his head, pressed him to himself, kissed him passionately, and said intermittently: "I like it very much!"
"Did you make money?" Zhuang Li laughed evilly while making trouble.
Xuan Ming, who was almost 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 filled with madness.
"You know, you are my whole world too." Zhuang Li whispered very gently in his lover's hot ear.
---
As soon as Zhuang Dahai and Chang Hui returned home after getting their divorce certificate, a group of creditors came to their door, throwing paint and hanging banners, demanding that Zhuang Li 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 produced her divorce certificate and immediately disowned him. She gloated as she returned to her room to pack her things. She even called her son and vividly described Zhuang Dahai's predicament: "He owes his life to that son of his. Even after his death, there's no one to collect his body. Luckily, I divorced him and got back the one million you lent 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?"
Chang Hui was about to reply when 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 asking for leave.
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 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. A strange security guard told him that there might be a system failure, asked him to wait a while and come back, and 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's eyes softened.
This subtle change in expression was not noticeable to most people, but Chang Dongming had a premonition about it, so he quickly realized what was going on.
Zhuang Li is incredibly successful, having been able to replace the entire Haiming Group's security system! That prophetic dream was real!
This thought made Chang Dongming immersed in ecstasy for the whole day, but the call from his mother made him fall into an ice cave in a second.
As 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 debt collectors have come to my house, and I'm worried about my parents. Could you please be flexible?"
This person obviously knew who he was and let him go immediately, while the others could not leave the company without the approval of the 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, the troublemakers were arrested by a group of police. They handcuffed them one by one and shouted, "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.
The 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 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 slammed the shouting woman against the wall and, raising their voices, said, "As far as we know, Mr. Zhuang Li has indeed repaid all your debts. We still have a copy of the debt settlement contract you signed. You are slandering me and will be held legally responsible!"
"Wow, he actually paid it off!" The neighbors were stunned.
To them, 180 million is an astronomical figure that they could not pay off in several lifetimes. However, they did not expect that Zhuang Li was so capable and turned his fortunes 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, not illegal financing! Get out of here! You took the money and are now smashing people's doors. This is trespassing and provoking trouble! Take everyone 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 their doors and went back to their houses. After all this time, the village manager had nothing to do, and they thought the old banker was finished this time!
Seeing this unusual scene, Chang Dongming was completely confused. He blushed and called Zhuang Dahai "Dad". Then he pulled Chang Hui into the bedroom, locked the door, and asked in a state of near collapse, "Mom, are you really divorcing Uncle Zhuang? And you want my one million back?"
"How could it be fake? Look, this is a check and a divorce certificate. Isn't mom capable?" 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 when he was a child and 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 it's about to burst! Do you know what you've done? Huh?" Chang Dongming scrambled to his feet, his eyes red as he spoke quickly, "Zhuang Li's company has been 100% acquired by ours! Did you see those policemen? They were all here to help Zhuang Li settle the matter! He's rich now!"
"Are you crazy? How could the police help Zhuang Liping?" Chang Hui waved her hand disapprovingly.
"Your lending of money to Zhuang Li was financing or crowdfunding, don't you know? Financing 180 million yuan should get you at least ten years in prison, yet Zhuang Li is fine. Can't you see the reality? Do you know what the future holds for his company if it's acquired by ours?"
"Come on, let me do the math for you. His company's registered capital is five million. If I don't take this one million back, it means my stake in his company will be 20%. If the company is acquired by Haiming Group, it will definitely get a large order from Haiming Group. I can't say how much more, but making 20 million a year is no problem. If I get dividends based on my share of 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 Manager Zhuang, didn't you see it? Wouldn't you have called to 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 ruined me, don't you know?"
Chang Dongming lay back on the bed, clutching his clothes at his chest and wailing, "Mom, you've ruined my entire future! I told you Zhuang Li would definitely make it through this, that he would 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 has waited five years for his dream of getting rich but fails at the last minute will collapse like him.
Chang Hui's smug expression twisted into one of fear and regret, but she stubbornly said, "How do you know Zhuang Li has become successful? That President Xuan didn't even say he wanted to acquire his company!"
"Don't talk! I get annoyed when I see you!" Chang Dongming roared with his face flushed 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're here to help me move. My son's company was acquired by the Haiming Group, and they just received a 2 billion investment and a large villa. If you and your mother don't have a place to live, you don't have to move for now. I'll be leaving first."
Zhuang Dahai opened his phone and pulled up a news page, his tone as smug as could be: "Look, look! My son's company is now a subsidiary of the Haiming Group! My son is the president!"
"I don't want these furniture anymore. 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, it's safer this way." The group of men in black quickly surrounded Zhuang Dahai and walked towards the elevator.
With the creditors besieging the Zhuang family, they couldn't bear to leave Mr. Zhuang's father in this troubled place. If the Americans took advantage of the situation, they wouldn't be able to explain themselves to their superiors.
As for Chang Hui, she had just divorced Mr. Zhuang. She was not worried if anything happened to Mr. Zhuang and even signed the joint complaint. It was obvious that she had a bad relationship with Mr. Zhuang and did not need protection.
While thinking this, the group of people had already walked away.
So many people came to the Zhuang family and were moving things around with a bang, which alarmed the neighbors. After a while of inquiring, 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 a successful businessman! 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 were my son!" The old man living opposite muttered enviously.
"Chang Hui and Zhuang Dahai divorced just this morning! She's just one step away from becoming a wealthy lady! Haha, this guy really needs to have a conscience. Zhuang Dahai was pretty good to them, mother and son, but she ran away with the money when the Zhuang family fell into trouble. Now she's 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 time before she tremblingly opened her mobile 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 is really rich! If his company can make 20 million a year, his son can get 4 million! As his stepmother, I can also live in a big villa with him!
But now there is nothing! It’s all over!
Chang Hui screamed, then took out the divorce certificate, and tore it into pieces while chasing him, crying and shouting: "Zhuang Dahai, I don't want a divorce, do 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 chased 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!
