Chapter 236 The house is sold, and Fan Shengmei bursts into emotion
As soon as the debt collector left, Fan Shengmei couldn't hold back her anger anymore and she started crying out of grievance. It was clearly her brother who caused the trouble, so why should she, a woman, take the blame?
It is obvious that those thugs who are collecting debts are not easy to deal with. If they attack me for money, how much injustice will I suffer?
Looking at the crying Fan Shengmei, Wang Baichuan felt a little distressed, but he was still rational. There were some things he couldn't say just because he was soft-hearted, because he didn't want to fall into the big trap of the Fan family.
The old lady walked out boldly only after she heard no more noise outside. Looking at her crying daughter and Wang Baichuan who was comforting her, the old lady immediately frowned.
"Hmph, Xiaomei, the debt collector left today, but what if he comes back in two days?
Just now you asked for 30,000 yuan in compensation. How can we afford that much money? You even asked them to call the police and arrest your brother. How can you be so mean?
Old Mrs. Fan is a bully at home. She was so cowardly in front of her creditors just now, and now she starts to make trouble for Fan Shengmei.
She didn't care whether Fan Shengmei was plotting something or not, she only knew that this girl wanted to trick her brother, and the old lady who favored boys over girls certainly didn't agree.
After the old lady finished speaking, she turned her face to Wang Baichuan again. She had thought that this guy could be a support for the family, but she didn't expect that he would let Xiaomei take the lead when facing the debt collectors. She really doubted whether he was a man.
Haha, this will certainly ruin the old lady's good impression of Wang Bochuan. She didn't expect this guy to be so unreliable.
She even lost the mood to invite Wang Bochuan to dinner at home. Instead, she angrily shouted at Fan Shengmei, "What are you still doing at home? Go and borrow money from your relatives and friends.
If we can't pay back the 30,000 yuan, the creditor will break our legs. Do you want to be an unfilial daughter? Do you hope that the creditor will take our lives so that you will be happy?"
The old lady was very stubborn and could easily get angry. Fan Shengmei had no choice but to pull Wang Baichuan away from home.
After leaving, Fan Shengmei apologized to Wang Baichuan, "Baichuan, I'm really sorry that you got beaten because of my family's situation. Do you want me to take you to the hospital?"
Wang Baichuan shook his head and refused, "Xiaomei, I'm fine. I just didn't expect that group of thugs would be so brutal. They jumped out and beat people before they figured out the matter. They really went too far.
I'm sorry I couldn't help you with this matter. If I had been tougher, this wouldn't have happened."
Everyone can say something after the fact, but it's a bit too late to say it now. Of course, this also makes Fan Shengmei lose the good impression she had just accumulated towards Wang Bochuan.
When she needed help the most, Wang Bochuan was able to help her borrow money and send her father home. These things touched Fan Shengmei very much and she felt that Wang Bochuan was a reliable person.
However, Wang Bochuan's performance in the face of the debt collectors just now made Fan Shengmei realize once again that having money and power is the most important thing. If Wang Bochuan had some strength, he would not have been so cowardly just now.
This made Fan Shengmei's desire to find a rich man even stronger. Wang Baichuan couldn't even be a backup, which really disappointed her.
Of course, these words can only be thought about in the heart, Fan Shengmei would not be stupid enough to say them out loud.
"Baichuan, I was planning to have you stay for dinner at my house, but now my mom has kicked us out. Let's find a restaurant and eat together.
Don't worry about the loan. We'll contact the buyer and sell the house on Monday, and then we'll have the money to pay them back."
Wang Baichuan nodded and quickly promised to contact his friend to discuss the transfer of ownership.
Monday soon came, and Wang Baichuan took Fan Shengmei to meet the buyer. Seeing the 180,000 yuan transferred into her bank card, Fan Shengmei immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
After the creditor promised not to cause trouble for the Fan family in the future, Fan Shengmei returned the 30,000 yuan to the creditor, and their family's troubles were resolved.
Afterwards, Fan Shengmei returned another 100,000 yuan to Wang Bochuan. In a private room of a restaurant, Fan Shengmei couldn't help but sigh.
"Fortunately, housing prices have risen rapidly in the past two years, otherwise I wouldn't be able to pay the money I owe you even if I sold the house.
Haha, eight years of hard work ended up in vain. I gave you 100,000, and 30,000 to the creditor. After returning to Shanghai, I have to pay back 20,000 to Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying for the remaining 50,000, and also pay 5,000 as compensation for Zhou Chen's mobile phone.
So after eight years of struggling, I'm left with only $25,000. This amount isn't even enough to cover the mortgage interest I've paid over the years. Don't you think my life is ridiculous?"
After hearing Fan Shengmei's account of her miserable life, Wang Baichuan could only console her by saying, "At least the remaining 25,000 yuan is in your hands. If it were in your brother's hands, he would probably have squandered it all in no time."
Fan Shengmei nodded in a depressed mood. When she heard her brother mentioned, she wiped away her tears in grievance.
"Baichuan, our family's affairs really make you laugh. For so many years, I have been using my own money to subsidize the family, and all the expenses of the family are borne by me.
Can you imagine how hard it is for a woman like me to face such a life? But even so, my parents still don’t appreciate my hard work.
Their eyes are only on my brother, and my mother thinks that no matter how much I do for the family, it is my duty.
Woohoo, I am also a woman, I also want to be loved. After so many years in Shanghai, I have always wanted to find a man who has a car and a house and can give me a stable life in Shanghai. Do you think my request is too much?
I also want to be like Andy, like Guan Guan and the others, able to afford brand-name bags, and have a man to shelter me from the wind and rain when I need help the most."
As she spoke, Fan Shengmei's emotions completely exploded. She covered her mouth and burst into tears. Fan Shengmei, who always liked to pretend, showed her vulnerable side to Wang Baichuan for the first time.
This made Wang Bochuan feel even more distressed. Seeing his white moonlight looking aggrieved, he smartly stood up and hugged Fan Shengmei to comfort her.
"Xiaomei, although my strength is still very weak, I am willing to be the man who can protect you from the wind and rain.
You don’t have to be so hard on yourself in the future. Let’s work hard together. Please give me some time.
I will definitely let you have your own house in Shanghai and build a home for us in Shanghai."
Haha, Wang Bochuan started talking big and even painted a rosy picture for Fan Shengmei of owning a house and a family, which was very useful for Fan Shengmei who was suffering from a mental breakdown.
Because Fan Shengmei did not push Wang Bochuan away, but burst into tears in his arms. Wang Bochuan thought this was a sign that their relationship had taken a step further.
In the afternoon, Fan Shengmei took a bus from her hometown back to Shanghai. She did not tell her mother about selling the house, nor did she say that the creditor problem had been resolved.
Fan Shengmei knew that as long as she explained the situation clearly, her mother would definitely call her brother who had escaped, and they would definitely come back to cause trouble.
Fan Shengmei, who didn't want to face these situations, chose to conceal them. Some things should be concealed as long as possible.
This time, the trouble caused by her brother directly destroyed the family’s house, and Fan Shengmei really couldn’t stand it anymore.
