The police took statements from everyone, and Zhao Baishan honestly confessed that his purpose in bringing Xiao Jie back to his hometown was to use Xiao Jie to blackmail Lin Baiwei for money. Zhao Wenshan, who rushed over after receiving a call from the police station, couldn't believe that his own brother could be so bad, but after hearing Zhao Baishan's confession, Zhao Wenshan was furious and turned from a gentle man into a raging lion.
"You beast! Xiao Jie is your own nephew! You want to sell him out? And you even hit a three-year-old child? Zhao Baishan, how could you be so vicious? Are you even human...?"
Zhao Wenshan was both angry and scared. Lu Mo's prowess was well-known in Pingjiang's business circles. He was well-connected in both the legitimate and underworld sectors, and no one dared to provoke him. However, his parents and brothers were incredibly audacious. First, they went to the Lu family's house to curse, and now they even ran over their precious son with a car.
Last time, Lu Mo was magnanimous and didn't hold a grudge against his mother, but this time he probably won't escape it. Zhao Wenshan didn't dare to imagine what the consequences would be. He might even lose his job. Lu Mo and his boss were such good friends that they could play golf together!
And his son, Xiao Jie, was almost sold by this beast. He's not young anymore, and he only has one son in his life. Zhao Baishan wanted to cut off his lineage!
"You ingrate...you heartless ingrate! All these years I've supported your whole family. I paid for your house, I paid for your marriage, and I raised your children. You even had three of them, while I only had one. All these years you haven't even planted a single scallion, just enjoying what's readily available. You repay kindness with enmity, you beast...I'll beat you to death, you beast!"
Enraged, Zhao Wenshan abandoned all decorum and lunged at Zhao Baishan, engaging in a fierce fight. Fortunately, Zhao Baishan's hands were cuffed; otherwise, even three Zhao Wenshans wouldn't have been able to defeat him. Even so, Zhao Wenshan was already panting heavily after only a few exchanges, exhausted himself.
"Back then, the whole family supported you through your studies. None of us could go to school and had to go up the mountain to collect herbs to earn money to support you. I was the one who sponsored your doctorate, and you yourself promised to support my family. Humph, you only give me so little money a month, and I don't even think it's too little. If I had been the one who went to school back then, I would be making a lot of money now, and I wouldn't need to spend your little bit of money!"
Zhao Baishan looked indignant. He was ten years younger than Zhao Wenshan and the youngest in the family. In fact, when Zhao Wenshan was in school, Zhao Baishan didn't contribute much at all. He was still at the age of playing around. Moreover, this guy had been lazy and gluttonous since he was a child. How could he possibly work honestly?
However, Zhao Wenshan's eldest sister and two younger siblings did contribute to his education. His eldest sister even married early for him, and although she didn't marry well, the dowry was higher than others. So, Xiao Jie's grandparents married off their eldest daughter without hesitation, without preparing a single penny of dowry. As a result, the eldest daughter had no status in her husband's family and had a very difficult life. It wasn't until Zhao Wenshan became successful that the eldest daughter was able to turn the tables and become the master of her own destiny.
Zhao Wenshan knew perfectly well how much effort his brothers and sisters had put in, so he gave the most back to his eldest sister. However, he also gave a lot to the younger ones. As for Zhao Baishan, it was because his parents doted on their youngest son that they often secretly helped him. Zhao Wenshan turned a blind eye to this, not wanting to argue with his parents over a few small amounts of money.
But he never expected that his tolerance would be met with such an ingrate, who almost caused his family to be ruined. Only now did Zhao Wenshan understand what Lin Baiwei had said: "Sooner or later, they will drain you of your lifeblood, but don't drag me and Xiao Jie down with you!"
