Chapter 829 Zhu Zhe tricks his younger brother to get rid of the family's bloodsucking.
Zhou Chen's scare tactics directly frightened Zhu Minjie away. Haha, why would he stay and pay back the money if he didn't run away?
Zhou Chen directly shifted the blame for his friend's loss onto Zhu Minjie. As long as Zhu Minjie dared to come looking for him, Zhou Chen would dare to make him pay back the money. After all, he was the one who caused the trouble.
Unfortunately, Zhu Minjie had no money and, not wanting to be burdened with debt, he could only choose to stay away from Zhou Chen. He then called his older sister, Zhu Zhe, hoping she could put in a good word for him with Zhou Chen.
Zhu Zhe is a master of acting. Even though she already knew this outcome and it was a scheme she and Zhou Chen devised, she pretended to be someone who had just found out.
When she heard that her younger brother had been fired for causing the company a loss of one million, she was immediately shocked and then pretended that the sky had fallen.
"You spendthrift! You're such a spendthrift! Over a million yuan! How are we going to pay it back? Do you even know how much trouble you've caused?"
Do you think your sister has influence and can speak up for Zhou Chen? Do you think he would give up this 100 million for me?
"Can we stop dreaming? People's money doesn't grow on trees. They told you to just do your job delivering packages, but you insisted on causing trouble, and now look what happened!"
Zhu Minjie said with a mournful face, "Big sister, I didn't want this to happen either. I thought Zhou Chen was a good person, and I even wanted him to be my brother-in-law."
I never expected him to turn his back on me. Do you think he'll sue me over this money?
Zhu Zhe immediately comforted him, saying, "You should have learned your lesson from this incident. Don't be overly ambitious. Only by taking one step at a time can you forge your own path."
I will plead with Zhou Chen about this matter, hoping he will show leniency. If that doesn't work, you'll have to work and pay it back slowly. You're still young; you'll be able to pay it off eventually.
Haha, Zhu Zhe put the pressure on her younger brother. Obviously, she did it on purpose. She knew that her brother definitely didn't want to bear the pressure and would eventually push it onto her.
There are some things Zhu Zhe can't say, but she can do them; she just needs an excuse.
As expected, Zhu Minjie panicked when he heard his older sister ask him to work to pay off the debts. He didn't want to be burdened with a huge debt.
On the one hand, Zhu Minjie has no money and doesn't want to take on this debt. On the other hand, he is still young and needs money to get married and have children. He can't earn a million yuan even if he works his whole life. Why should he live to pay off his debts in the future?
"Big sister, I'm your own brother. How long will it take to pay back the money if you expect me to work?"
Dear sister, please help me. How am I supposed to get married and have children with such a huge debt? Do you want our Zhu family line to end?
"Oh, right, isn't Zhou Chen after you? Why don't you become his woman? That way we'll be family, and you won't have to pay back this money."
Zhu Minjie's eyes lit up and he immediately had an idea, but the words he said angered Zhu Zhe, who raised his hand to slap Zhu Minjie and berate him for betraying his own sister.
"You little ingrate! I'm your own sister, and you just betrayed me like this? I haven't even settled the score with you for what happened to Zhou Chen when he was drunk last time, and you actually teamed up with Zhou Chen to scam me."
I'm telling you, I'm not involved in this anymore. If Zhou Chen wants to sue, he'll sue you; he won't be able to trace it back to me.
Zhu Zhe acted as if he was giving up, and then hung up the phone.
According to Zhu Zhe and Zhou Chen's original plan, Zhu Zhe would end up taking the blame for this debt. However, this would mean that Zhu Zhe would not be able to use his salary to support his family in order to repay the debt. In other words, Zhu Zhe would no longer have to leech off his younger brother and family.
Another purpose is to cultivate his younger brother's independence and self-reliance. In the future, Zhu Zhe will no longer support you financially, so you will have to make your own way in the world on your own.
Zhou Chen and his brother wanted to use this money, which they didn't need to repay, as a pretext to pressure their younger brother and, incidentally, get Zhu Zhe rid of his status as a leech in the family.
If Zhu Minjie says a few nice words, Zhu Zhe is ready to agree to help pay back the money, since she doesn't actually have to pay it back herself; it's all just an act for her brother.
Unexpectedly, her younger brother suggested that she seduce Zhou Chen. If they became family, they wouldn't have to pay back the money. Wouldn't this be tantamount to betraying Zhu Zhe?
Zhu Zhe was naturally very unhappy. He didn't expect his younger brother to be like this. So Zhu Zhe immediately refused to help pay back the money, which could be considered a test for his younger brother.
Zhu Zhe never expected that his younger brother would be such a good-for-nothing. He only wanted to scare his brother, but unexpectedly, his brother went back to his hometown that very night to avoid debts.
Zhu Minjie then pressured his parents to force his sister to repay the money, so that he wouldn't have to worry about it anymore.
Zhu Zhe, who had just finished get off work, received a call from his mother saying that his younger brother had returned home. She also complained that Zhu Zhe hadn't taken good care of his brother in Shanghai, causing him to get into such big trouble. Finally, she suggested that Zhu Zhe settle the one million yuan debt.
Clearly, the parents placed all the blame on Zhu Zhe, which left Zhu Zhe speechless once again. It was true that no matter how much he did for the family, it couldn't compare to his precious son.
The clever Zhu Zhe decided to take this opportunity to break free from his family's control. It would be even better if his younger brother returned to his hometown, so he would no longer have to worry about his brother causing him trouble, nor would he have to worry about his relationship with Zhou Chen being exposed.
On the surface, Zhu Zhe deliberately complained, "Mom, I am also your daughter. How can you say such things?"
Why should I take the blame for my brother's trouble? I'm already in my thirties. If I'm burdened with over a million yuan in debt, how am I supposed to find a husband? Have you even considered my situation?
In response to Zhu Zhe's complaints, his mother immediately retorted, "What do you mean 'yours' and 'mine'? You are Xiao Jie's older sister, so you have to be responsible for him."
"That's settled then. Now that you're a hotel manager, your salary must be quite high. You can pay me back slowly later."
Taking this opportunity, Zhu Zhe immediately stated her conditions. She said, "You parents are so biased. You want me to pay it back, but then I won't have any money to support my family anymore, since I have to pay off my debts."
Also, let your younger brother find a job back in our hometown, as long as he can support himself. Just don't let him come to Shanghai and hang around Zhou Chen's face, otherwise who knows what kind of trouble he might cause?
"You don't know that Zhou Chen is a rich second-generation. My little brother caused such a big mess and ran away. If he shows up in front of Zhou Chen, an enraged Zhou Chen will break his legs. You don't want my brother to become a cripple, do you?"
Haha, Zhu Zhe is trying to scare his family again so his younger brother won't come to Shanghai.
This method is not bad. The younger brother is the apple of the family's eye. When the parents heard that the younger brother might get his legs broken if he went to Shanghai, they repeatedly promised to keep a close eye on him.
Moreover, their daughter Zhu Zhe was already willing to take on the debt, which was the best news for them. Thus, both sides were happy and achieved their goals.
The younger brother actually ran home to avoid debts, which relieved Zhu Zhe of the worry that he would cause trouble for him at the hotel.
Then, she used the excuse of being in debt to escape her family's exploitation, but unexpectedly, Zhou Chen's plan actually helped her escape her misery.
For the family, Zhu Zhe took on her younger brother's debts, shouldering the burden of the family so that her brother wouldn't have to repay the debts.
What Zhu Minjie's family didn't know was that this whole thing was a trap set by Zhou Chen and Zhu Zhe for him from the very beginning; the so-called 100 million yuan debt simply didn't exist.
They used a non-existent sum of money to expose Zhu Minjie's true colors and free Zhu Zhe from his family's exploitation, killing two birds with one stone.
