Chapter 856 Someone Came to Cause Trouble, Zhu Zhe's Parents Who Were Concerned with Their Resp
Along the way, Zhou Chen and Zhu Zhe discussed it, and Zhou Chen finally came up with an idea for Zhu Zhe: he could lend money, but Zhu Zhe's parents had to mortgage their house in their hometown.
Of course, the purpose of doing this was not because Zhou Chen had his eye on Zhu Zhe's old house, but to provide Zhu Zhe with a guarantee, since her parents favored boys over girls.
As long as Zhu Zhe holds onto the house in his hometown, they will definitely be hesitant to act rashly, and at least they won't give Zhu Zhe a hard time. His parents won't just focus their attention on his younger brother.
Moreover, Zhou Chen had another purpose: Zhu Zhe's parents had always made unlimited demands on him, which would only fuel their greed.
It must be stated now that Zhu Zhe is powerless to help the family even if they seek assistance. Even if she tries to find a solution, you, as parents, will have to pay the price.
This time we asked for your house, next time we'll ask for your land. Who told you to let your son cause trouble? The bigger the trouble your brother causes, the more you'll have to pay.
Of course, Zhou Chen is chosen to play the villain because it's too ruthless to do this.
If Zhu Zhe's parents knew that this was all a charade staged by Zhou Chen and Zhu Zhe, they would probably scold Zhu Zhe for being unfilial, scheming against his own family.
An even more serious scenario would be for Zhu Zhe's parents to sever ties with him. Of course, this is the scenario Zhou Chen would like to see, so that Zhu Zhe wouldn't have to worry about family matters anymore.
Hehe, at this moment, Zhou Chen's identity is that of a loan company's customer manager and part-time friend of Zhu Zhe. He came along this time under the pretext of investigating Zhu Zhe's family's financial strength. Otherwise, why would Zhou Chen lend Zhu Zhe 400,000 yuan?
Finally, in the evening, Zhu Zhe and Zhou Chen arrived at Zhu Zhe's hometown. There was a crowd gathered in front of her house, and it seemed that something had happened.
Zhou Chen immediately honked the car horn, and the crowd made way for him. The neighbors were surprised to see the car parked in front of Zhu Zhe's house.
The neighbors had no idea that Old Zhu had any wealthy relatives. Could it be that Old Zhu's eldest daughter had returned?
Zhu Zhe's arrival at the car proved this point. She greeted her neighbors and then headed home. At this moment, she was genuinely worried, wondering what had happened at home.
As soon as Zhou Chen got out of the car, he became the focus of everyone's attention. The young man was very handsome and even drove a luxury car. Could he be the boyfriend that Old Zhu's eldest daughter found outside?
It seems that the eldest daughter of the Zhu family has made something of herself outside. She must have known that something had happened at home, which is why she came back.
Zhou Chen paid no attention to the neighbors' gossip. When he entered the courtyard, he found that someone was causing trouble. A middle-aged woman was sitting on the ground, making a scene and cursing. There were several young men with her, who looked like thugs. In short, they didn't seem like good people.
At this moment, Zhu Zhe was standing at the door of her house comforting two elderly people, who appeared to be her parents. The couple seemed a bit cowardly and didn't dare to come out to resolve the issue, leaving her to vent her frustration in the courtyard.
“I’m telling you two old bastards, your son is a beast. My son didn’t provoke him, but he stabbed my son. I’m going to send him to jail. I’m going to make him pay the price.”
You parents shouldn't have an easy time either. You'll face all sorts of medical expenses and lost wages. You won't be able to settle this without at least 400,000 yuan.
This must be your daughter who just got back. Didn't you say that you'd have money when she came back? Where is the money?
"Hmph, if you don't pay me, I'll come here every day and cause trouble. I'll make sure you can't stay in this village anymore. Just you wait and see."
The woman sitting on the ground was making threats, but her eyes were fixed on Zhu Zhe. It was clear that she was saying these words specifically to Zhu Zhe. She knew from Zhu Zhe's mother that the eldest daughter of the Zhu family might come back today, so she deliberately came to make trouble, her purpose being to force Zhu Zhe to give her money.
Just then, Zhou Chen walked up to her, squatted down, looked at her, and said, "Big sister, this is a matter where your family is in the right. Don't make it seem like you're in the wrong."
The police haven't even given an explanation about Zhu Minjie stabbing someone, and you're already coming to collect a debt. You think you can just give me 400,000 yuan in compensation?
We respect the law. If it is truly Zhu Minjie's responsibility, we will pay whatever the court orders. If you come here to cause trouble, then you are not in the right.
Either you leave now, or I'll call the police. You're making a scene in someone's yard, and a bunch of neighbors have gathered to watch. This is no small matter.
We didn't say we wouldn't pay compensation, but if you want to take legal action, your disturbance should be considered disorderly conduct, and you'll be in jail for ten days to two weeks and then you'll behave yourself."
The woman who was throwing a tantrum didn't expect Zhou Chen to actually step forward and take responsibility. She immediately questioned him angrily, "Who are you? What does this have to do with you?"
I'm telling you, you'd better not get involved, or we'll beat you up too.
Seemingly in response to the woman's words, several thugs immediately surrounded Zhou Chen.
Seeing this, Zhou Chen was not afraid. Instead, he pointed to the cars outside and joked, "Beating me up probably won't vent your anger. Why don't you smash my car too? That car is worth more than 100 million. Smashing the car will at least give us a sound. I'm rooting for you."
I am Zhou Chen, a lawyer from Shengli Law Firm in Shanghai. I came here at Zhu Zhe's invitation to handle Zhu Zhe's brother's case.
"If you have the guts, smash my car too. I'll sue you until you're bankrupt and send you all to jail."
Alright, Zhou Chen has put on the guise of a lawyer again to scare them, his goal being to drive them away, of course.
The villagers had never seen much of the world, so the lawyer's profession suddenly seemed very prestigious.
The thugs who had been surrounding Zhou Chen immediately dispersed. After all, they had come to help him out and give him courage; nobody wanted to get into trouble with the authorities.
Seeing that they were starting to back down, Zhou Chen added fuel to the fire, saying, "Either you leave now, and we'll go to the police station together tomorrow to find out what happened, and then we can discuss compensation."
Either I call the police now and have them take you to the station to spend the night and calm you down.
"I can meet you at the police station tomorrow. Which one do you choose?"
Zhou Chen's imposing manner immediately intimidated them. Since Zhu Zhe had returned and they were willing to go to the police station tomorrow to resolve the issue, they immediately stopped causing trouble.
After uttering a few harsh words, the woman who had been throwing a tantrum left immediately; they didn't want to spend the night in jail.
Zhu Zhe's parents were surprised that the matter was resolved so easily. They looked at Zhou Chen in the courtyard and gave Zhu Zhe a meaningful look, asking who the man who came back with him was.
Zhu Zhe simply replied that he had asked a friend to help, an answer that clearly did not satisfy the elderly couple.
They had heard Zhou Chen say that he drove a car worth millions, which made him seem like the perfect son-in-law—young, promising, rich, and handsome. How could he just be a friend?
The troublemakers left, and Zhu Zhe's parents, who had been timid just moments before, immediately mustered their courage. So they went out of their house and began to disperse the neighbors, saying there was nothing to see here.
When neighbors asked if Zhou Chen was their daughter Zhu Zhe's boyfriend,
Zhu Zhe's parents, who were very concerned about their image, did not deny the issue; instead, they nodded in agreement.
After years of hard work, their daughter finally brought a man back home, and he was even a young and promising man driving a luxury car worth millions. Of course, they said he was their daughter's boyfriend. Their daughter was doing well in Shanghai, and it gave them face in the village.
Haha, on the way here, Zhu Zhe was worried that Zhou Chen would not be well received by his parents, but he didn't expect that as soon as he entered the house, they would treat Zhou Chen as their future son-in-law.
They were clearly celebrating too soon. Zhou Chen hadn't even shown his true colors yet. When they found out that Zhou Chen wasn't Zhu Zhe's boyfriend and was even after their house, I wonder if they would still be happy.
