Chapter 820: Either a house or 8, how to choose?
Zhou Chen went directly to Lucy's house to negotiate with her father. After a combination of threats and persuasion, Zhou Chen finally got Lucy's father to compromise.
Haha, all I can say is that Lucy's father underestimated Zhou Chen. Since Zhou Chen dared to get involved in this mess, he must have been mentally prepared. Otherwise, why would he take on so much responsibility?
"Zhou Chen, I underestimated you. You've got a good grasp of the situation. Every move you make is designed to force me to compromise. So, tell me, what exactly do you want?"
Faced with Lucy's father's questioning, Zhou Chen immediately laughed and said, "What happened to your tough attitude just now?"
"Hehe, Uncle, you're asking me what I want to do?"
I think I made myself clear just now. I was just helping Lucy and Mianmian get back what belonged to them. There were some things that Lucy couldn't do herself, so I had to play the bad guy.
I had someone investigate everything about you. After your aunt passed away, you transferred 150,000 yuan of your salary from her card. You still have 400,000 yuan in your bank account.
In addition, your house is worth at least 120 million yuan according to the current market price. We won't take advantage of the furniture in the house; those two items alone are worth 160 million yuan.
We won't ask for much; we'll just split it in half. That way, you can say that the two sisters inherited their mother's property, and they didn't take a single penny from you.
If this money is divided among three people, with over 160 million divided into three parts, each person would get over 50. Therefore, you would need to give Lucy and her sister over 100 million to be fair.
Last night, Zhou Chen used hacking skills to access Lucy's father's company's financial payroll records. After obtaining his bank card number, Zhou Chen checked the bank statements and knew exactly how much money Lucy's father had.
Before Zhou Chen could finish speaking, Lucy's father immediately interrupted, "I think you're daydreaming. You ask me for a million right off the bat. Where would an old man like me get so much money?"
"Hmph, you're trying to kill me! My daughter is truly filial; there's absolutely no way I'll agree. I have no money, but you can take my life. Go ahead and kill me if you dare!"
Lucy's father made his stance clear, and he looked at Zhou Chen with a fierce expression. Who told this guy to be so despicable?
Whether it's 100 million or 80, Lucy's father doesn't want to pay the money. Sure enough, you can't expect anything nice to come out of Zhou Chen's mouth.
Zhou Chen had no idea that Lucy's father was cursing him in his heart. He gave Lucy's father two choices, and then it was up to him to decide.
"Uncle, why do we have to fall out? Since that's the case, let's take a step back. As long as you transfer 800,000 to Lucy's bank card, Lucy won't care who you marry after that. You can say you're completely free."
Of course, if you don't agree with this division method, then I'll give you 40 yuan, and transfer the house to Lucy and Mianmian as compensation for your abandonment of her.
This house is located in the suburbs of Beijing. With the current property prices, they should still be able to appreciate. Don't worry, I won't take advantage of you.
"The house will absolutely be left to Mianmian when she grows up. I have no intention of taking it; I mean it."
Lucy's father sneered at Zhou Chen's promise, saying that some people make nice promises, but how many of them can actually keep them?
It's uncertain who this house will belong to after Mianmian grows up. In Lucy's father's opinion, Zhou Chen is no simple character. Wouldn't he be tempted by a property worth millions?
Haha, Lucy's father underestimated Zhou Chen. He didn't know that Zhou Chen was a rich second-generation. In his mind, Zhou Chen was just a good-for-nothing doctor. He would definitely have his eye on this house.
Moreover, it's even more impossible for Zhou Chen to ask you to leave the house to your two daughters. If you hand over the house, where will Lucy's father live?
In other words, if he hands over the house and then marries the woman, where will they live?
Hmph, he can't just rent a place to live, so this house is absolutely not to be handed over; that's his bottom line.
Only if someone owns this house will they be interested in her, and only then will their relationship have a chance to continue. Lucy's father understood this principle.
"Zhou Chen, you really have a lot of tricks up your sleeve. You actually wanted to take my house. You just said that the house prices in the capital will continue to rise. Do you think I would hand it over to you?"
Although this is the suburbs, there's still a lot of room for growth. I've worked so hard to build this little fortune, are you trying to bankrupt me?"
Lucy's father started blaming Zhou Chen. Actually, Zhou Chen did it on purpose. He knew that Lucy's father would never hand over the house, so he deliberately made a difficult request so that Lucy's father would agree to another option and ultimately have no choice but to hand over 80 to Lucy.
In Zhou Chen's opinion, getting 80 yuan from Lucy's father was already a success, since the other party was so shrewd.
Hmph, for such an inhuman father, we should quickly get the money and make him break off his relationship with Lucy. That way, they won't have any contact with each other, and Lucy won't have to worry about taking care of him in his old age.
"You don't want to hand over the house, and you don't want to pay 800,000 yuan. Uncle, don't you think you're being too cunning?"
"Or we could ask that auntie who's already left to come over and discuss it. I'm sure she'd be very interested in this. Without a house, I doubt anyone would even bother with you."
Zhou Chen started using that woman as a threat again. Now that woman is Lucy's father's weakness, and sure enough, Lucy's father is getting anxious again.
At this moment, Zhou Chen kindly offered him advice, saying, "Uncle, if you ask me, you can mortgage the house or borrow money to raise 80 yuan to give to Lucy. It shouldn't be difficult for you to repay the money after that, right?"
You're now on the sidelines with a salary, and you'll have a pension after retirement. I believe you can pay it off in a few years, and your life will still be very good.
That way you can keep your house, and you can marry whoever you want. Isn't that great?
If you feel insecure and are afraid that your two daughters will try to take your inheritance in the future, you can even sign a separation agreement with Lucy and Mianmian, so that you can each live your own lives and not have anything to do with each other.
Starting with your decision not to support Mianmian, Mianmian won't need to support you in your old age either. Let's just sever ties and be done with it once and for all.
You and that woman can enjoy your life together in this house. If you're still not satisfied, you can have another son. Just thinking about it makes the future seem full of hope.
Haha, Zhou Chen actually tricked Lucy's father into signing a separation agreement without Lucy's consent. That move was indeed a bit too audacious.
If Lucy gets angry, Zhou Chen will be in trouble. Who told him to make decisions on his own?
