Friday, June 5th, sunny.
Near noon, Lu Chen walked out of the Binhai High-Speed Railway Station.
The dazzling sun shone on his face, making his eyes involuntarily squint and his mood soar.
Thanks to the modern developed high-speed railway system, in just five hours, Lu Chen returned from the capital to his hometown, which he had been away from for nearly a year, a small town on the coast of eastern Zhejiang.
Binhai City is a county-level city with a population of more than 1 million. The regional administration belongs to the Hang-Wen area, which is more than 200 kilometers away from the provincial capital, Hangzhou. Lu Chen was born and grew up here until he was admitted to Jianghai University.
Originally, he wanted to go home on the 1st because he had to go back to Jianghai University to attend the graduation ceremony on the 9th. However, because he was preparing a new song for Sister Na and The Bionics, he was delayed in the capital for a few more days.
Several songs of The Bionics have entered the formal production stage. As a songwriter, Lu Chen took the opportunity to participate in the process of arrangement and production, and put forward a lot of his own suggestions.
Arrangement is Lu Chen's biggest weakness, so such an opportunity is very rare for him to learn a lot, and if the new song can be successful, it will be a good start for him to enter the mainstream circle of pop music.
On the other hand, Lu Chen will also release his own album. It is good to know the production process in advance, not to mention that he has a good personal relationship with Sister Na and Qin Hanyang.
Out of the train station, he took a taxi to the city's Dongping District.
Dongping District is one of the earliest districts in Binhai City. It is also the location of the staff dormitory of the Municipal Finance Bureau, State Taxation Bureau, and Local Taxation Bureau. Lu Chen's mother, Fang Yun, and sister, Lu Xue, live there.
Fang Yun is an accountant in the Binhai State Taxation Bureau. After the Lu family's accident, her original house and car were sold. She moved to the staff dormitory in Dongping District to save money.
When he got out of the car at the gate of the district, Lu Chen did not go home immediately, but ran to the bank not far from the district.
At the VIP customer window of the business department, he took out his bank card and ID card and stuffed them in.
"Hello, I'm here to withdraw money. I made an appointment yesterday."
Five minutes later, Lu Chen left the bank with his heavy backpack and returned to Dongping District.
Fang Yun lived in Room 201 of Block 7.
Although Lu Chen didn't spend much time here, this small home also brought him a lot of warm memories. Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to home, his footsteps became especially light.
However, when Lu Chen walked to the front of Block 7, he suddenly noticed that the car parked next to the green belt looked very familiar. He took a closer look at the license plate number and suddenly had a bad feeling!
Frowning, Lu Chen sped up the stairs and soon arrived at the door of Room 201.
The door was unlatched, so the voices in the living room could clearly be heard by him!
"There's nothing we can do. We've been in debt for so long …"
"If it wasn't for our Wenkang wanting to buy a house, we wouldn't have come here."
"We're all relatives, you can't let us …"
After listening to a few words, Lu Chen couldn't listen any more. He pushed the door open!
Bang!
The security door hit the wall and made a loud noise.
This dormitory had a layout of one bedroom and one living room. The room was very old. The living room, bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom all added up to no more than 30 square meters. The small living room could barely accommodate a sofa and a small desk, so it looked very simple and cramped.
When Lu Chen broke in, his mother, Fang Yun, was standing in front of the desk with an expressionless face. A middle-aged woman with a rich appearance was spitting at her and pointing at her.
A middle-aged man with a dull look was sitting on the sofa, smoking with his head down.
On his right was a young man in his 20s, wearing a T-shirt and jeans, with a messy haircut, a shiny silver earring hanging on his left ear, and an unruly look on his face.
The sound of the door knocking made everyone look at Lu Chen.
"Little Chen?"
Fang Yun was surprised and happy. She quickly came over: "When did you come back?"
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Mom, I just came back."
He turned his face, and his expression became extremely cold in an instant: "Uncle, aunt, you're all here?"
The middle-aged man sitting on the sofa was Lu Chen's uncle, Fang Yuanzhong. The one who just scolded Fang Yun was his aunt, Lin Ru, and the young man with the earring was Lu Chen's cousin, Fang Wenkang!
"Little … Little Chen is back!"
Fang Yuanzhong stood up a little bewildered and said, "It's good to be back."
Lin Ru was stunned at first, and then said disdainfully, "What's good about it? If you have the ability to make money, bring it back and pay off the debt you owe our family first! "
Fang Wenkang sat on the armrest of the sofa and looked at Lu Chen with sarcastic eyes.
Fang Yun's face was angry. She was about to speak, but she was stopped by Lu Chen behind her.
Lu Chen asked lightly, "Aunt, I don't understand what you're saying. When did our family owe you money?"
Lin Ru's face was distorted as if she had heard something fantastic. "What did you say? Your Lu family doesn't owe us money? It's written on both white and black papers! "
She took out a few pieces of paper, shook them hard at Lu Chen, and cried, "Do you still want to renege on the debt?"
Lu Chen suppressed his anger and asked, "If I remember correctly, this is a shareholding agreement, right?"
When the Lu family's business was booming, Lin Ru was jealous and urged Fang Yuanzhong to ask Fang Yun for some shares in the Lu family's new factory. In addition to getting dividends, she also wanted her son, Fang Wenkang, to work in the factory.
The new factory was still profitable at first, and the dividends were given to the Fang family. However, after the outbreak of the international financial crisis, Lu Qingsheng's business was hit hard. The bank demanded repayment of the loans, which eventually led to the capital chain being broken and the company going bankrupt.
Although Lu Qingsheng died, he left a huge debt to his family. In addition to the bank loans offset with fixed assets, he still owed millions to his relatives and friends.
Fang Yun bore all these debts. It was natural to pay off debts, and there was nothing to say.
However, the Fang family signed a shareholding agreement, and the dividends they had taken in the past had exceeded the shares. After the factory closed, they still had to ask Fang Yun to return the shares and pay back the money. There was no reason at all.
Lu Chen knew that his mother had paid back some money to Lin Ru, and the relationship between the Lu family and the Fang family had become very cold. He didn't expect that the Fang family would come to their house today to force Fang Yun to pay back the debt.
It was the best!
How could Lu Chen not be angry? "If you want money, then go to the court to sue. Now get out of here!"
It was impossible for the court to support such a "debt".
How could Lin Ru not know?
She was choked by Lu Chen's harsh words, and the muscles on her fat face twitched. She suddenly grabbed Fang Yuanzhong and howled, "Fang Yuanzhong, say something. Are you just going to watch your nephew bully your wife? Are you dead?!"
Fang Yuanzhong frowned and let Lin Ru beat him. He looked at Fang Yun helplessly. "Little Yun …"
"How can you talk to my mother like that?"
Fang Wenkang jumped up and rushed to Lu Chen aggressively. "F * ck your mother, you're looking for a beating!"
The living room was instantly thrown into a state of chaos!
Lu Chen saw Fang Wenkang reach out to grab his chest. He dropped his backpack and did not dodge. At the moment when the other party's claws were about to touch his body, he suddenly raised his left hand and grabbed it.
"Pa!"
The next moment, a heavy slap landed on Fang Wenkang's face!
Fang Wenkang was caught off guard and was directly stunned. Lin Ru also stopped crying and was stunned.
Lu Chen's face was cold. He pushed Fang Wenkang away with his left hand and said in a deep voice, "Fang Wenkang, if you want to die, just say it. I will fulfill your wish!"
This kid used to be like a dog in front of him, but now he dared to insult his mother.
Lu Chen wanted to kill Fang Wenkang. This slap was too light!
Fang Wenkang was almost pushed to the ground. He covered his red and swollen face and came to his senses after a while.
Then he howled like a pig being slaughtered. "Damn it, Lu Chen wants to kill me!"
Lin Ru was so angry that her nose was crooked. She screamed, "Fang …"
She didn't know why, but the cold look on Lu Chen's face made her subconsciously feel a trace of fear, so she wanted to instruct Fang Yuanzhong to come forward and teach Lu Chen a lesson. She didn't dare to do it herself.
"Enough!"
Fang Yun shouted.
She was disheartened and said to Fang Yuanzhong, "Brother, I will call you brother for the last time. I will find a way to return the money to you in the future. You can go."
The greatest sorrow was the death of the heart. Fang Yuanzhong didn't dare to look at Fang Yun's eyes. His lips moved but he couldn't speak.
"There is no need to do it in the future!"
Lu Chen picked up the backpack on the ground and suddenly unzipped it. "Return it now!"
