Ah Qi left with his underlings, and Yan Ling sat dejectedly on the floor, his mind still replaying the words Ah Qi had just said.
Ah Qi said the house was used to pay off debts, and he would bring people to take it back in three days.
They also demanded that he hand over the restaurant, as one house wasn't enough to cover the debt.
Yanling wanted to call Jiang Xin to ask for the money, but then he thought, if Jiang Xin knew that he owed so much money, would she secretly laugh at him for being a useless man?
He has suppressed Jiang Xin for so many years, he absolutely cannot lose face in front of her!
Moreover, the house belongs to Jiang Xin. If she finds out that she used the house to pay off debts, will she disagree?
If she doesn't agree, Ah Qi and the others will definitely not let her get away with it!
Not only can't we tell Jiang Xin about this, we also have to keep it from her so she doesn't ruin things!
Jiang Xin stayed at her uncle's house during this period and developed a deep bond with her uncle's family. She did not return to her new home after her postpartum period ended.
She went back once in between, took her clothes and daily necessities, and then returned to her uncle's house to stay permanently.
Her and Yanling's daughter's full name is Yanxi, and her nickname is An'an. Her aunt adores this beautiful and adorable granddaughter.
Neither her uncle's family nor Jiang Xin knew about Yanling's gambling, let alone that he owed a huge sum of money and had gone bankrupt.
That day, as usual, my uncle went to help out at the restaurant at noon.
He could see a group of burly men standing in front of his restaurant from afar.
The uncle was startled and nervously approached the restaurant. The people standing at the door did not stop him. As soon as the uncle stepped into the store, he heard the waitress Xiao Li crying.
"Uncle Jiang, they said the restaurant was used by the owner to pay off debts, and now they are in charge of it."
She was so frightened by the group of menacing people that she couldn't help but burst into tears as soon as she saw her uncle.
Uncle had never seen anything like this before. A row of burly men stood at the door, and there were quite a few inside as well. They all turned to stare at Jiang Wei, and Uncle instantly felt his scalp tingle.
He didn't know what had happened. Just now, Xiao Li said it was to settle a debt, that Yanling owed them money?
The uncle anxiously observed the people in the room, finally fixing his gaze on Ah Qi.
Ah Qi sat regally in his chair, legs crossed, waiting for his underlings to pour him tea.
The uncle realized that he must be the person in charge, so he quickly stepped forward and said with a smile, "Is there some misunderstanding? We haven't heard Yanling mention anything about the restaurant being transferred."
Ah Qi still showed some respect to his elders. He gestured for his uncle to sit down and talk to him.
Taking a sip of tea, Ah Qi said unhurriedly, "Grandpa, I'm just an employee. Please don't make things difficult for me. Boss Yan does owe our boss a lot of money, and since he can't pay it back, he can only use this restaurant to pay off the debt."
The uncle didn't believe it. How could Yanling owe his boss money? Why would he need to borrow money?
Even if Yanling owes money, she can't use the restaurant to pay it off! The restaurant is doing very well now and making money right now, how can she sell the hen that lays the eggs!
After thinking it over, the uncle wondered if he could just pay off his nephew's debt out of his own pocket.
Otherwise, if they take the restaurant away, how will my nephew's family make a living?
An'an is still so young, but there are so many places where money is needed.
The uncle chuckled awkwardly, "So, how much money does Yanling owe you?"
Ah Qi waved his hand, and his henchman behind him handed him a black briefcase.
He took a stack of IOUs out of his bag and placed them on the table, chuckling softly, "Here, all the IOUs are. Take your time looking at them, sir."
The moment he produced the IOU, his uncle's expression changed drastically; his mind went blank...
Ah Qi also showed him a video of Yan Ling pressing his fingerprint on the IOUs, proving that Yan Ling had personally signed them.
Faced with Ah Qi's mocking expression, the uncle shakily picked up the pile of IOUs.
His face went from initial doubt, shock, and disbelief to eventual calm.
The last piece of paper clearly stated a total of eight million yuan!
If it were only tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, I might be able to plead for them and negotiate the price.
Eight million! That’s eight million!
Even if he sold his entire family, he still couldn't come up with that money!
Then what else is there for him to be angry and sad about?
The uncle was numb; they knew they could never repay the money anyway, so he gave up trying.
We can't pay it back, we simply can't pay it back.
Seeing the old man's eyes glazed over, Ah Qi worried that his body wouldn't be able to hold up, and that he would end up losing money.
He could only "kindly" remind him, "Old man, don't worry. This money looks like a lot, but our boss is a good man. He knows Yanling's situation and knows he can't repay the money. So..."
My uncle's expression shifted slightly. He said his boss was a good person? What does that mean? Does it mean he doesn't have to pay it back? So what?! Tell me quickly!!!
Ah Qi added, "So, our boss said that Boss Yan only needs to use the restaurant and the house to pay off the debt. He doesn't have to pay the rest!"
Tell me, isn't our boss a really good person?
His words nearly made his uncle vomit blood. Was this really a good person?!
Would a good person covet someone else's house or shop?
