The Reversal of a Son-in-law

"Oh! One more thing. After you go in, you'd better not talk about what happened at the hospital. If mom and dad find out that you didn't apologize and offended the Ning family, they will scold you again."

Li Yuechan suddenly turned around and reminded him.

"Yes, I know." Long Chen nodded.

"You can go in now."

"Wait," Long Chen whispered, "I have another important question. Has grandpa always been living in Jingshui Villa?"

p "Yes. My second uncle's family is also living at Jingshui Villa," Li Yuechan said, "grandpa has been in a coma for a long time. There are people taking care of him every day."

"Let's visit him someday," Long Chen said.

He wanted to try it and see if he could cure Li Yuechan's grandfather.

He might be able to find out some secrets from the old master.

The old master of the Li family and his grandfather were adamant about him marrying Li Yuechan. But they were not compatible in terms of social status. Long Chen guessed that Old Master Li must know some secret since he agreed to it willingly.

However, Li Yuechan rejected Long Chen's suggestion immediately. "I don't want to go."

"Why? Is it because you still hate grandpa for forcing us to get married?" Long Chen was puzzled.

"No," Li Yuechan rolled her eyes at Long Chen and said, "I did have complaints about grandpa's decision in the past, but I don't anymore. I don't want to go because I don't want to meet my second uncle's family."

"But I want to go. If you don't go, I don't think I'll be able to get in."

Long Chen smiled bitterly.

"Why do you suddenly want to visit Grandpa?"

Long Chen's persistence left Li Yuechan in a puzzle.

"Our relationship is better now, and I want to thank grandpa for it," Long Chen said with a smile.

"I see." Li Yuechan stopped frowning and said, "alright, I'll go with you tomorrow night."

"Thank you, honey."

Long Chen was overjoyed.

"Buy some gifts before we go tomorrow. Here, take this."

Li Yuechan took out a bank card and handed it to Long Chen.

Her action startled Long Chen. He didn't take it.

"Take it. There's not much money inside, only about ten thousand yuan."

Li Yuechan stuffed the bank card into Long Chen's hand.

"You helped my family pay off so much money last time, and I haven't even paid you back yet. I can't take this."

Long Chen returned the bank card to Li Yuechan.

"What are you talking about?"

Li Yuechan's relaxed expression instantly became stern again. She said unhappily, "We're husband and wife. What's wrong with you spending my money? Do you intend to divorce me?"

"What are you guys doing? You've been at the door for so long and not coming in. What are you whispering out there?"

Han Min suddenly walked out of the house.

Li Yuechan quickly retracted her hand and hid the bank card.

However, Han Min still noticed that.

Her face immediately turned cold, and she said in a deep voice, "Yuechan, are you giving him money again?"

"Mom, he has been in living our house for more than a year, but I've never seen him buy any clothes. I was thinking maybe..."

"You're not allowed to give him money," Han Min shouted, "if he wants to buy clothes and shoes, he'll have to earn them himself. We don't have an obligation to buy them for him."

"But..."

"Li Yuechan, you should think more about yourself. The Wanxing shopping mall project is about to start. It requires a lot of investment. Your father said that he needs another 30 million yuan. We are still thinking of a way to get that much money. Don't waste your money like that."

Han Min advised.

"Didn't we have enough money?" Li Yuechan frowned.

"Your second uncle called the day before yesterday and said that he was facing some difficulties and took more than ten million yuan," Han Min said.

"My second uncle owns most of the important businesses in our family. Why would he need that money?"

Li Yuechan sounded bewildered.

"I have no idea. Anyway, your dad is short of money now. If he can't get 30 million yuan, I'm afraid the Wanxing mall project will face a financial problem. You have to think of a way to get the money," Han Min said.

"Have you tried asking for a loan from the bank?" Li Yuechan asked.

"The bank refuses to load us more money. After all, we have already owed them a lot. Your dad has been calling his friends to help us, but we didn't get a positive response yet."

"What's wrong with dad? He knew he had to build Wanxing Mall, but he still lent money to my second uncle. It's ridiculous."

Li Yuechan was angry.

"Your dad doesn't owe him any money. I can't tell you the details either. Anyway, you have to think of a way to help your dad get some money," Han Min said.

"Even my dad can't do anything about it. What can I do?"

"You're one of the people in charge of the Wanxing mall project. You have the responsibility to take care of these things," said Han Min.

"Yuechan, your mother is right. I don't have any other way now, but I can provide you with a suggestion."

Li Shiqi walked out of the hall with a smile on his face. He did not look anxious.

"What is it?"

"Long Chen was the one who negotiated this project with Wanxing Group. I think Wang Wanli still thinks highly of Long Chen. Why don't you let Long Chen try? Maybe he can borrow the 30 million yuan from Wang Wanli," Li Shiqi suggested.

"That's impossible," Li Yuechan immediately said, "it's already a huge favor for them to let us take over the project. Let's not talk about whether we can borrow money. Even if we can, we haven't even started the project yet. What will they think about us? That is a bad idea."

"As a businessman, you should be more shameless. You know that. Besides, we've already reached the end of the deal, so why care about this? Let Long Chen try. If it works, we'll go and thank him. If it doesn't work, we'll say that Long Chen made the decision himself. It won't affect the overall situation."

Li Shiqi laughed.

"Dad, you are cunning."

Long Chen sneered.

"Well, you have to do something for this family, don't you?" Li Shiqi said.

"I'm not going," Long Chen said firmly.

He didn't care even if Li Shiqi was his father-in-law, but he, Long Chen, would not do something so inappropriate.

"If you don't agree, you and Yuechan should break up," Li Shiqi sneered.

Long Chen was shocked. He didn't expect Li Shiqi to threaten him with that again.

Li Yuechan also frowned. "Dad, we can discuss the solution for the financial situation. Don't threaten him for no reason."

"I'm not threatening him. If he doesn't go, he'll have to divorce you. The family doesn't need someone who will do nothing for the family."

Li Shiqi spoke in a demanding tone.

"Grandpa arranged my marriage with Long Chen, not you. So, even if I want to divorce him, grandpa will be the one who decides."

With that, Li Yuechan dragged Long Chen into the house.

Li Shiqi was so angry that his breathing became rapid. He turned around and quickly walked into the hall, shouting, "Li Yuechan, since you won't let him borrow money from the Wang family, then you will be the one who needs to think of a way to get the fund. You must stop interfering in this project if you can't handle this matter."

"How about Yuechan take the highest percentage of the dividends if she manages to get the money?"

Long Chen asked indifferently.

"Erm... what do you mean?" Li Shiqi was startled by that question, "Don't tell me you're willing to borrow money from the Wang family now?"

"I didn't mean it that way. Answer my question first."

Long Chen stared at Li Shiqi.

"Don't even think about it," Li Shiqi gritted his teeth and said, "it doesn't matter if it's you or her. We both have to contribute to the family. It is your duty. Why should I reward her for that? It is ridiculous."

"You said that if I don't go to the Wang family's residence to borrow money, you'll ask me to divorce Yuechan. Aren't you trying to negotiate with me? Oh! It's not negotiating. You are forcing me to get the money."

Long Chen gazed at Li Shiqi calmly.
