Chapter 6: IOU for 40 million
"Madam, the young master has finally figured it out. I'm worried that he'll be fooled by that Ji guy again."
After saying this, Fang Bo sighed, like a helpless old father.
"He's just a kid, it's okay to have a few relationships, but Angel's temper won't last long."
Rebecca has always been indifferent to Ye Lin's boyfriend talk. In her opinion, her nephew is much more well-behaved than those Italian boys. As for spending some money, it is not a big deal. As long as her nephew is happy, that little money is nothing.
But when I came back today, I saw that this kid asked Lao Fang to throw away all his things. I guess she was tired of him. Look, she said that the relationship won’t last long. Besides, this kid surnamed Ji is not that good-looking, so just break up. The next one will be more handsome.
Everyone in the restaurant had their own thoughts. When Fang Bo heard the sound of a car in the yard, he hurried out to greet it, muttering, "God bless you, master bless you, please don't let the young master come back with that scoundrel Ji Yuanping."
After the Rolls-Royce stopped, Fang Bo quickly opened the back door to see if Ji Yuanping was in the car.
Ah Hui, who had just come out of the cab and was about to open the door for the young master, saw that his job was snatched away by Fang Bo. He stood aside and looked at Fang Bo with resentment.
Ah Hui secretly made up his mind that his speed was still not fast enough and he couldn't even outrun Fang Bo. He would get up early tomorrow and run ten more laps around the garden. I, Ah Hui, am determined to be the most useful subordinate of the young master!
Fang Bo looked around and saw that there was no one else in the car. He smiled so hard that wrinkles on his face suddenly appeared on his face. He asked softly, "Master, are you hungry? Come in quickly. Madam is waiting for you."
Fang Bo's smile was clearly very gentle, but Ye Lin felt goosebumps all over his body.
Walk through the rockery in the foyer and into the dining room on the right.
"Oh! Baby is back!"
The enthusiastic Aunt Rebecca walked around the round table, holding up the hem of her sea-blue satin skirt, and gave Ye Lin a warm hug.
Ye Lin and Rebecca kissed each other cheeks
"Zia, your dress tonight is amazing."
She has to wear an evening gown to dinner, she is worthy of being his aunt.
Rebecca took Ye Lin's arm and returned to the dining table to sit down. "The dress was delivered by Dior this afternoon. Come and sit down. We have lion's head and cream of mushroom soup tonight."
As soon as Ye Lin sat down, Aunt Rebecca couldn't wait to use chopsticks to pick up a large meatball dripping with braised sauce and put it on the silver plate. She also quickly picked one for Ye Lin, not wasting a drop of sauce in the process.
Before Aunt Rebecca came to Hong Kong, she only had the same old three dishes for dinner: red wine steak with salad. But after arriving in Hong Kong, she fell in love with lion's head dish and changed her diet to red wine lion's head dish with salad. She ate it every other day, which made David and Aunt Liu always want to compete with each other between lion's head dish and steak.
"Angel, have you broken up with Xiao Ji?"
Aunt Rebecca used chopsticks and a knife to neatly divide the lion's head into four small pieces, and did not forget to care about her nephew's love life.
The maid Amei brought the hand washing water, Fang Bo took care of Ye Lin while he washed his hands. Ye Lin rubbed his hands and replied to Rebecca
"Yes, Zia, today I feel that he is too ugly and not worthy of me. Our family will have nothing to do with him from now on."
"Yes, my Angel is the most handsome. Do you need Zia to introduce you to some handsome Italian guys?" Rebecca blinked at Ye Lin, eager to try.
Ye Lin was so frightened by Rebecca that he didn't hold the knife. "Ahem, no need, Zia. I prefer single life now."
"Oh, I see." Rebecca looked at Ye Lin disappointedly. She had thought of several types just now, but seeing that Ye Lin really didn't seem interested, she decided to continue eating the lion's head.
After saying goodnight to Aunt Rebecca after finishing the meal, Ye Lin returned to his room. Looking at the aromatherapy bottle placed on the table by Ah Hui, he opened it and smelled it. It was not the same smell in the room this morning, but it was almost the same. He stared at the aromatherapy bottle for a while and then put it in the drawer.
Just as he closed the drawer, Fang Bo knocked on the door outside, "Master, are you asleep?"
Ye Lin stood up and went to open the door. "No, Mr. Fang, is there anything wrong?"
Fang Bo stood at the doorway, hesitant to speak, and looked at Ye Lin, "Master, how do you think we should deal with this?"
Fang Bo held a brown paper bag in his hand. "You ordered all of Ji Yuanping's things to be taken away. I found this in the desk drawer when I was sorting it out. What do you think we should do with it?"
He took the cowhide bag from Fang Bo's hand, pulled the drawstring and turned it a few times to untie the bag. There were more than a dozen documents inside. He took out one and looked at it, then Ye Lin smiled.
Ji Yuanping, this money-grubber, is both a self-made man and a tyrant. He relies on the young master to make a fortune, and also wants to establish a self-reliant personality for himself.
Every time he borrowed money from the young master for investment, he would write an IOU to the young master, saying that he would definitely pay it back after he succeeded. This made the young master very moved. When Ji Yuanping borrowed one million yuan, the young master wanted to give him ten million yuan.
Originally, Ye Lin didn't remember finding the IOU, and was thinking of asking Ji Yuanping to get it from somewhere else. This time, it saved him the trouble.
It seems that the young master never intended to ask Ji Yuanping to pay back the money, and he didn't care about these IOUs at all. Ji Yuanping also knew the young master's temper well, so he dared to write the IOUs.
It’s decided. I’ll go collect the debt tomorrow!
Ye Lin put the documents away and sent Fang Bo out. "Thank you, Fang Bo. Leave these for now. Go and have some rest."
Fang Bo was relieved to see that Ye Lin had understood what was going on. "Okay, young master, go to bed early."
Ye Lin sat back at his desk, roughly counted the IOUs, and looking at the priceless pieces of paper in his hand, he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Tsk tsk, Ji Yuanping borrowed over 40 million Hong Kong dollars. Has his appetite grown bigger, and is he planning to directly encroach on the Ye family's assets? Or does he just not want to repay the debt? But he knows in his heart that the young master has no intention of asking him to pay back the money. Besides, no matter how the inheritance is divided, Ji Yuanping will not get any of it. What is Ji Yuanping thinking?"
Tap the ground with one foot to make the seat spin slowly
Rich people like to make wills. Could Ji Yuanping have intended to forge a will? After all, technology in the 1970s was not as advanced as it is today, and laws and testing techniques were relatively backward, so there might be loopholes that could be exploited.
After Ye Lin finished thinking, he decided to go to the study to look at the inheritance law of Hong Kong at that time. No matter in which era, knowledge is the most powerful weapon.
Leaving the room and walking to the right to the end of the corridor, there is a heavy mahogany double door. When you open it, you will see the study of the villa. There is a conference table about 3 meters long in the middle, and bookcases are built on the walls on both sides. The left side is for foreign languages, and the right side is for Chinese. Thinking that Xiangjiang is still in a rental state, Ye Lin walked to the left.
Recalling the grand occasion of Hong Kong's return in his previous life, he now personally felt the excitement of the Hong Kong people at that time. He is a Chinese, standing on Chinese soil, but he has to read foreign books and use foreign laws. Then what kind of unfair life do the ordinary Chinese people living in Hong Kong live?
Hong Kong inheritance law is roughly the same as that of later generations, and it is difficult to forge it.
After reading it, Ye Lin felt that forging a will was difficult and risky, and there was something fishy about it. It was not a good idea. Ji Yuanping should not be that stupid, and his clues were lost again.
