The scarred man said, "I don't care. If I can't find him, I can only look for you."
Sheng Yufei's eyes dimmed. "Where would I have so much money?"
"You said that Sheng Difei owes you money. Do you have an IOU?" Lu Jinshen's deep voice rang out in the room.
"Of course." The scarred man fumbled in his pocket for a while and took out a piece of paper. He spread it open. "It's written in black and white. How could I frame him? There's even Sheng Difei's signature on it. "
Lu Jinshen took a closer look and frowned. "It says one million. Why did you ask for two million?"
The scarred man said, "He borrowed from a loan shark for several years. Two million is considered a small amount. I can't be bothered to calculate the small change."
Lu Jinshen was silent for a few seconds. "I'll pay you back. You're not allowed to come here and disturb her in the future."
"Jin Shen, don't …"
"Bitch, shut up." The scarred man interrupted Sheng Yufei and smiled at Lu Jinshen. "As long as someone pays me back, I won't come here again."
Lu Jinshen took out his phone and called Lu Meihua. After hanging up, he looked at the scarred man. "Go to Lu Corporation now. Someone will give you the money."
The scarred man was unwilling. "No way. Who doesn't know if you're trying to lure us away? After we leave, you'll run away. It wasn't easy for me to find her. We won't leave until we get the money."
Lu Jinshen frowned and took out his military ID from his pocket. He showed it to the scarred man. "I won't run away."
When the scarred man saw that Lu Jinshen's ID said 'Major General', his face was filled with fear. He immediately became respectful. "Okay, okay, okay. We'll go to Lu Corporation to get the money."
Lu Jinshen called out to the men who were about to leave. "Wait."
The scarred man turned around. "Is there anything else?"
"Take the money receipt and hand it to the person who gave you the money."
"Yes, yes, yes, of course."
"Also, you're not allowed to lend money to Sheng Difei in the future. Otherwise, you won't be able to return it. I'll even invite you to the police station."
"No, no, definitely not." The scarred man shook his head repeatedly. "Sir, can I leave now?"
Lu Jinshen nodded slightly.
After they left, Lu Jinshen walked to the sofa and sat down. He untied Sheng Yufei's wrists and asked, "Do you know that your brother borrowed money?"
Sheng Yufei's tears fell down. She bit her lip and nodded.
Lu Jinshen looked up at Sheng Yufei and continued to untie the rope. "Why didn't you tell me before?"
"My brother told me that it was 200,000 yuan. I thought that I could solve it if I worked hard. Who knew … they changed it to two million yuan. I … I don't have that much money … If I didn't give them the money, they said that they would sell me … I was scared … That's why I called you …" Sheng Yufei sobbed after she finished speaking.
Lu Jinshen threw the rope on the coffee table and took out a cigarette case from his pocket. He lit a cigarette and took two puffs before saying, "You shouldn't have kept it from me."
"You already have your own family. I didn't want to cause you trouble."
Lu Jinshen frowned and took two more puffs of the cigarette. "I said that I would take care of you and your son for the rest of my life. I will definitely do it."
"I know that you are a person who values relationships. I also know that you took care of Ziqian and me for Zihua's sake. In fact, you didn't cause what happened back then. You don't have to treat us like this." Sheng Yufei wiped her tears as she spoke. "I know that my existence makes Tong Qiao uncomfortable. If it were me, I would also be unhappy if my husband took care of another woman unconditionally …"
"Stop talking." Lu Jinshen got up and looked annoyed. "Don't let your imagination run wild. I still have something to do. I'll leave first."
"Jin Shen …"
Lu Jinshen strode toward the door without looking back.
Sheng Yufei looked at Lu Jinshen's back as he left. A trace of guilt flashed across her teary eyes, but it quickly disappeared. She murmured, "Lu Jinshen, don't blame me."
…
Lu Jinshen returned to the Tong family home and saw Xia Daiyun playing with An 'an on the sofa. He glanced around but didn't see Tong Qiao. "Mom, is Qiao' er not back?"
"She's back …"
Before Xia Daiyun could finish speaking, Lu Jinshen quickly walked toward the stairs.
Xia Daiyun hurriedly continued, "Qiao 'er is not upstairs. She went out to buy medicine for me."
Lu Jinshen turned and walked toward the sofa. "Mom, where are you feeling unwell?"
Xia Daiyun smiled. "Actually, it's nothing. I probably caught a cold after getting up a few times last night. My nose is a little stuffy. I said it's nothing and I'll be fine after drinking more water, but Qiao 'er insisted on going out to buy medicine for me."
"If you're not feeling well, you'll get better quickly after taking medicine. I'll go out and see her." Lu Jinshen then walked toward the door.
Xia Daiyun's face was full of relief. This couple was so close that they couldn't leave each other for a while.
Lu Jinshen hadn't gone far when he saw Tong Qiao return. He walked toward her.
Tong Qiao also saw Lu Jinshen. She stood still and watched him walk up to her. "You're back?"
She wasn't angry or furious. It was just a simple question.
This question was asked in a flat tone, without a trace of emotion, and her eyes were also indifferent.
Lu Jinshen was most afraid of Tong Qiao being like this. "Qiao 'er, Yufei almost …"
"You really did it for her!" Tong Qiao's lips were tinged with a hint of mockery. "In your heart, she will always be more important than me. It's just that I don't understand. Since you can't let go of her and she even gave birth to your child, why did you divorce her?"
Lu Jinshen reached out to hold Tong Qiao's hand. She took a few steps back and avoided his touch.
"Qiao 'er, it's not what you think."
Tong Qiao looked at Lu Jinshen indifferently. "Then tell me, what's the matter?"
"Yufei's brother owed a huge sum of money to loan sharks. Those loan sharks came to Yufei and asked her to pay back the money. It was an emergency, so I left."
Tong Qiao's mocking smile deepened. "You're so nosy. Not only do you have to take care of your ex-wife, but you also have to take care of her family."
"Qiao 'er …"
"I don't want my parents to worry. I told my mom that we've registered our marriage. Don't let it slip." Tong Qiao interrupted Lu Jinshen. She lowered her eyes and her gaze fell on the ring on her ring finger. "I'll wear the ring first, in case my parents get suspicious. After a while, I'll find a chance to tell my parents that we're divorced. I'll return it to you."
"It's not that easy for soldiers to get divorced."
"Then let's wait for now." Tong Qiao finished speaking and walked towards the villa.
Lu Jinshen caught up with her in a few steps and grabbed her wrist. "Qiao 'er, I told you before that I'll take care of Yufei and her son for the rest of my life, but I have no romantic feelings for Yufei …"
Tong Qiao shook off Lu Jinshen's hand. "After we registered our marriage, Sheng Yufei called and you left me alone. Now you're telling me that you have no romantic feelings for her? Lu Jinshen, you're so hypocritical. I look down on you. "
"Qiao 'er …"
