Zhai Muchen did not know what to say. His family was indeed a ss. Even though the Zhai family looked quite good from the outside, there was one ss after another waiting for him to clean up. His parents were not reliable, leaving him, the big brother, to deal with the ss of his siblings and neither of his siblings was willing to sit still. Whether it was Zhai Heng or Zhai Mumu, both of them were a cause of his worries. And if that was not enough, his aunt and cousin would cause trouble every now and then. Just thinking about the ss that was waiting for him in the house made his teeth ache.
"I still want to apologise to you. Ah Heng has caused you a lot of trouble and my aunt must have been rude to you as well." Zhai Muchen knew his aunt too well; that woman would certainly not sit still when her precious son was being questioned. She must have spoken so foul words to Han Ruochen.
Han Ruochen, however, did not take such a matter to heart. She had listened to way worse things in the past. Compared to those curses, the things that Madam Yun said to her, they were nothing. She waved her hand and stated generously, "There is no need. Really. I did not take those words to my heart." If she started to take such small things to her heart, then she was worried that she would be driven crazy by her mother.
Zhai Muchen saw that she was indeed unaffected and sighed. He wanted to talk to her but he also knew that there were more important things waiting for him. "I will thank you for your help so other day, Ruochen. Today, I will deal with the good things that my family has arranged for ."
Hearing his response, Han Ruochen nodded. She knew that this was not the ti for her to ask about the money that she had earned; she could always ask Zhai Heng to transfer the money to her tomorrow. Anyway, she trusted the character of the Zhai family. They were so rich that they could easily clinch a five million yuan deal, what was a re three million yuan in their eyes?
"Alright, see you later, Brother Muchen." Han Ruochen bid her goodbye and then returned ho. However, as soon as she arrived at the Han house, she knew that there was sothing amiss.
"What is so good about staying at ho and learning how to cook? He was doing business just fine. But now he has stopped earning even a penny." Xu Yuanshu sobbed incessantly. "I am not being hard hearted but I need to think of Han Zhicheng as well; he is my son and he is so young. With a father, who is not even willing to take care of him, how am I supposed to live this life? You tell , aunt!"
After listening to the cries of her eldest sister in law, Han Ruochen understood what was going on more or less. Her eldest brother had stopped bothering with the business and had declared it as bankrupt but the Xu family would certainly not leave the matter as it was. They would definitely try to scramble and squeeze the last ounce of worth from the business that Han Yong had built.
Unfortunately, they only knew how to make a ss and did not know how to earn a penny. So it was not a surprise that they were not able to do anything and could only watch the business crumble. Xu Yuanshu and the rest of the Xu family had been spoiled rotted by Han Yong, who allowed them to do whatever they wanted. It was not a surprise that they were not able to live in the current dire state.
Han Ruochen sighed; it seed like she was destined to not have peace today. She pushed open the door and entered the house. Sure enough, the entire Xu family was sitting in the living room with Han Yong. Their stance was clear; they wanted him to get back on his feet and start earning money for their family.
ng Yunhan seed flustered after being questioned by her cousin. She turned to look at Han Yong and pointed at his nose before scolding him fiercely, "You damned son of mine, are you bent on causing trouble for ? You have such a good business but you don’t want to do it instead you want to cook? Have you lost your mind?" She had worked so hard to stop this son of hers from following that master of his but now he was back to doing the sa foolish thing, what was the point of cooking? What could he even achieve?
"What is the point? At least if he earns a few pennies, he would be able to keep them for himself. But if he does business, then the elder brother has to take out every penny that he earns and give it to soone else’s family."
Han Ruochen walked inside the house and glanced at Xu Yuanshu and her family. She had seen many shaless people but this was the first ti she had seen soone as shaless as them. They had been relying on her brother for so many years and yet after hitting an obstacle, their first reaction was not to do sothing to change their circumstances but instead to force her brother to take on their family’s responsibilities. This alone showed how easily they had taken her brother’s hard work for granted.
"You shut up for . What do you know?" ng Yunhan scolded Han Ruochen angrily. She did not like Han Yong but she liked Han Ruochen even less now that the girl was not listening to her. She had a sick suspicion that this woman was behind Han Yong’s actions.
Han Ruochen sneered. "All I know is that my brother has been working hard all these years but look at him; he is all flesh and bones. If anyone sees him, will they even consider him a business owner? They would take him as a beggar. He cannot eat anything decent with his own hard-earned money and look at the rest! They are so fat and plump that they look like landlords. You do not feel sorry for your son but I feel sorry for my brother!"
