Long Chen made his way home and saw that everyone, except Li Yuechan, was enjoying their conversation immensely.
Han Min glanced at Long Chen and, clearly annoyed, gave him a cold stare, “The market isn’t far. How could buying groceries take so long? Are we even eating dinner?”
Long Chen didn’t say a word and silently placed the groceries in the kitchen.
“Wash the dishes.”
Han Min said indifferently.
“I’m not free,” Long Chen responded.
He would no longer blindly be ordered around as he had been before.
“Not washing them, huh? No worries, you won’t be part of our family for much longer anyway.”
Han Min sneered.
Long Chen frowned, “What do you mean?”
“Just what I said,” Han Min replied.
“Don’t you see? My second cousin’s family came to visit, and it’s all about his and my sister’s arrangement. We’ve almost reached a consensus now, we’ll formally notify you soon.”
Li Yuexin said, half smiling, with a sense of gratification in her eyes.
Since Long Chen had once oppressed her boyfriend, now she was more than willing to see him being suppressed.
“Long Chen, since Yuechan’s mother has spoken, let’s be frank, we think that Han Jieke and Yuechan are more suited for each other. As for you, let us know if you need anything.”
Li Shiqi spoke earnestly.
“I don’t need anything, just one word from Yuechan.”
Long Chen looked at Li Yuechan.
Li Yuechan lightly bit her lip, thought for a moment, and then softly said, “I didn’t agree to them, you are my husband, for life.”
“Yuechan, as long as you don’t want it, no one can force you.”
Long Chen smiled, relieved.
“Yuechan, are you out of your mind?”
Han Min was very angry.
“Aunt, please don’t,” Han Jieke immediately said, “After all, this isn’t a trivial matter, and Yuechan naturally finds it hard to accept.
Moreover, I don’t want to force her to make any decision.
As for that twenty million, whatever happens, we will lend it to you to tide you over.”
“Jieke, you’re great, so understanding and intelligent, unlike some people—parasites who live off others,” Han Min patted Han Jieke on the shoulder.
“Without that twenty million, it would be difficult for the Li family to even start that project we secured in Wanxing.”
Li Shiqi sighed.
“Shiqi, here’s what I think, the twenty million, absolutely can serve as a dowry, but… if it doesn’t work out, I’m thinking…”
Han Xiao hesitated.
Li Shiqi’s face changed slightly, interpreting the unstated part of Han Xiao’s statement.
Seeing this, Han Jieke whispered, “Dad, maybe we should…”
“You are still young, let dad handle this, okay?”
Han Xiao looked at Han Jieke.
“Alright.”
Han Jieke could only nod.
“Big brother, are you saying that Yuechan and Jieke have to be together to get the twenty million?” Han Min asked.
Updat𝓮d from frёewebnoѵēl.com.
“Sister, it’s not that I, as the older brother, want to make conditions, but this is a major issue; after all, twenty million is not a small amount,” Han Xiao said.
“Indeed,” Han Min replied with some headache.
Li Yuechan unwillingly, coercion was useless.
But if this deal fell through, so would the twenty million.
“Li Yuechan, if you don’t agree, then go find twenty million yourself.”
Han Min said through gritted teeth, “I truly don’t know what you see in Long Chen, such a loser.”
“He is not a loser,” Li Yuechan stated firmly. “We don’t have twenty million, but we have fifty million, is that enough?”
Fifty million?
Those words stirred waves of shock among everyone.
At that, Han Xiao couldn’t help but burst out laughing, “Yuechan, if you don’t want to be with Han Jieke, just say it directly, why lie? Do you think fifty million is just scrap paper?”
“Yuechan, I think Jack isn’t that bad,” Gao Jinlan persuaded. “Just consider it. If you agree, you can have anything you want.”
Li Yuechan shook her head slightly and said, “I didn’t lie; we really have fifty million. Long Chen gave it to me.”
“Enough!” Li Shiqi shouted angrily. “Li Yuechan, to escape, you even make up such poor lies. Does Long Chen look like he could have fifty million?”
“Wait a minute.”
Li Yuechan ran to her room to find the check.
As soon as Li Yuechan left, Han Jieke’s gentle appearance suddenly sharpened.
“Long Chen, right? I’m giving you a chance to leave on your own. Whether you want a sports car or a house, you can name it, but if you don’t leave, I will teach you a lesson using unconventional methods.”
Han Jieke threatened openly.
“What are these unconventional methods?”
Long Chen was not flustered at all.
If it had been the old Long Chen, he would have been somewhat nervous, but times had changed.
Han Jieke, not sensing Long Chen’s calmness, coldly said, “Unconventional methods, such as car accidents, falling from buildings, or dying from illnesses. Which one do you choose?”
“Oh.”
Long Chen sat down on the sofa, completely unconcerned.
“Long Chen, I advise you not to seek your own death.”
Gao Jinlan said through gritted teeth.
“Hehe, a patient in the middle stage of lymphoma being so sharp and harsh will only worsen your condition prematurely.”
Long Chen sneered.
“Huh? How do you know about my illness?”
Gao Jinlan was shocked.
“I happen to know a bit of medical knowledge; it’s nothing noteworthy,” Long Chen said calmly.
“You definitely heard it somewhere. Stop pretending to be an expert here.”
Gao Jinlan didn’t believe that Long Chen knew any medical techniques.
“The check is here.”
At that moment, Li Yuechan came running over with the check and handed it to Li Shiqi.
After studying it back and forth, a joyous expression appeared on Li Shiqi’s face, unable to hide his excitement, “It’s indeed fifty million.”
“Is it really true?”
Li Yuexin was shocked, finding it hard to believe.
The Han family, including Han Min and Han Xiao, were also stunned.
Gao Jinlan’s face turned ugly; if the check was real, they could no longer coerce Li Shiqi and his wife or Li Yuechan with money.
“Long Chen, where did you get all this money from?”
Han Min couldn’t refrain from asking.
“I borrowed it,” Long Chen said.
“From whom?” Han Min asked again.
“That’s my personal privacy,” Long Chen said calmly. “When you earn money later, just return this money to me, and I will give it back to the creditor.”
“What are you thinking?” Han Min immediately said. “This money was borrowed by you and now brought out to support the family. There is no reason for us to pay it back. You figure out how to return it yourself.”
“Seriously?”
Long Chen was astounded.
“Of course, seriously. You can’t keep occupying my daughter’s house, eating and drinking for free, and expect us to pay back even this little money.”
Han Min spoke with justified indignation.
Long Chen was left speechless. When people are shameless to this extent, what can you say? Nothing you say matters; shamelessness is invincible.
“Mom, we still need to return the money later. Long Chen doesn’t have a job; how can you ask him to return it? Let’s just consider it a temporary solution to our troubles,” Li Yuechan hurriedly said.
“Yuechan, your mother makes a lot of sense. Why pay back such a little money? Let Long Chen figure it out himself.”
Gao Jinlan added her opinion.
Hearing this, Long Chen couldn’t help saying, “Your Han family really is rich and mighty, considering fifty million just pocket change. Impressive.”
“You’re right, our Han family is indeed impressive, indeed rich. Are you unhappy with that?”
Gao Jinlan looked disdainful.
