Friday, June 5, sunny.
When it was almost noon, Lu Chen walked out of Binhai High Speed Railway Station.
The dazzling sunlight shone on his face, causing his eyes to narrow involuntarily, his mood soaring.
Thanks to the modern and well-developed high-speed railway system, in just 5 hours, Lu Chen returned from the capital to his hometown, which he had been away for nearly a year, in 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 Hangzhou-Wenzhou area. It is more than 200 kilometers away from the provincial capital Hangzhou. Lu Chen was born and raised 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, but he was delayed in the capital for a few days because he was preparing a new song for sister Na and the wandering band.
Several songs of the Wandering Band have entered the stage of formal production. As a songwriter, Lu Chen took the opportunity to participate in the process of arranging and producing, and put forward many suggestions of his own.
Arrangement is Lu Chen's biggest weakness, so this kind of opportunity is rare for him, he can 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 beneficial to know the production process in advance, not to mention that he still has good personal friendship with Sister Na and Qin Hanyang.
After leaving the train station, he took a taxi to the Dongping Community in the city.
Dongping Community is one of the earliest communities built in Binhai City. It is also the dormitory for the employees of the Municipal Finance Bureau, National Taxation Bureau and Local Taxation Bureau. Lu Chen's mother Fang Yun and younger sister Lu Xue live in it.
Fang Yun is an accountant in the National Taxation Bureau of Binhai City. After the Lu family's accident, the original house and car were sold, so she moved to the staff dormitory in Dongping Community to save money.
After getting off the car at the gate of the community, Lu Chen didn't go home immediately, but ran to a bank not far from the community.
At the VIP customer window of the sales department, he took out his bank card and ID card and stuffed them in.
"Hello, I made an appointment to withdraw money yesterday."
Five minutes later, Lu Chen left the bank with a heavy backpack and returned to Dongping Community.
The dormitory where Fang Yun lives is in Room 201 of Building 7.
Although Lu Chen lived for very little time, this small home also brought him many warm memories. Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to home, his footsteps became extraordinarily brisk.
However, when Lu Chen walked in front of the 7th building, he suddenly noticed that the car parked beside the green belt looked familiar. He looked carefully at the license plate number, and suddenly felt a bad feeling in his heart!
Frowning, Lu Chen quickened his pace and rushed up the stairs, and soon came to the door of Room 201.
The door was ajar, so the voices from the living room could be heard clearly in his ears!
"There is nothing we can do, the money has been owed for so long..."
"If it wasn't for my family Wenkang to buy a house, there is really no way, otherwise we wouldn't come to the house."
"We are all relatives, you can't let us..."
After listening to a few words, Lu Chen couldn't take it anymore, he pushed open the door hard!
boom!
The security door hit the wall with a loud bang.
This dormitory has a layout of 1 bedroom and 1 living room. The room type is very old. The combined area of the living room, bedroom, kitchen and bathroom does not exceed 30 square meters. The small living room can barely accommodate a sofa and a bed. Small desk, so it looks very simple and cramped.
When Lu Chen broke in, his mother, Fang Yun, stood expressionlessly in front of the desk, and a middle-aged woman with a rich appearance was spitting and gesticulating at her.
Sitting on the sofa was a dull-looking middle-aged man, smoking a cigarette with his head sullen.
On his right is a young man in his 20s, wearing a T-shirt and jeans, with a messy hairstyle and a shiny silver earring on his left ear, with a rebellious look on his face.
The sound of slamming the door made everyone look at Lu Chen.
"Xiao Chen?"
Fang Yun was surprised and delighted, and hurried over: "When did you come back?"
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Mom, I just came back."
He turned his face, his expression became extremely cold in an instant: "Uncle, aunt, are you all there?"
The middle-aged man sitting on the sofa is Lu Chen's uncle Fang Yuanzhong, the one who sprayed Fang Yun just now is his aunt Lin Ru, and the young man with the earrings is Lu Chen's cousin Fang Wenkang !
"Xiao...Xiaochen is back!"
Fang Yuanzhong stood up at a loss, and said awkwardly, "It's good to be back."
Lin Ru was stunned for a moment, and then said disdainfully: "What's better? If you have the ability to make money, bring it back, and pay off the debt owed to our family first!"
Fang Wenkang sat on the armrest of the sofa and looked at Lu Chen with mocking eyes.
Fang Yun's face was filled with anger, she was about to speak, but was stopped by Lu Chen.
Lu Chen asked lightly: "Auntie, I don't understand what you said, when did our family owe you money?"
Lin Ru seemed to have heard some strange news from the Arabian Nights, and her face was distorted: "What did you say? Your Lu family didn't owe us any money? It's written all over the black and white paper!"
She took out a few pieces of paper and shook them vigorously at Lu Chen, shouting, "Do you still want to renege on your debt?"
Lu Chen held back his anger and asked, "If I remember correctly, this is a shareholding agreement, right?"
Back when the Lu family's business was booming, Lin Ru was jealous and urged Fang Yuanzhong to beg Fang Yun. He insisted on buying some shares in the Lu family's newly opened factory. Besides earning dividends, he also wanted his son Fang Wenkang to work in the factory. .
The new factory was profitable at the beginning, and the dividends were distributed to Fang's family. However, after the outbreak of the international financial crisis, Lu Qingsheng's business was hit hard. The bank's pursuit of loans eventually broke the capital chain and the company went bankrupt.
Although Lu Qingsheng passed away, he left an astonishing amount of debt to his family. In addition to the bank loan offset by fixed assets, he owed several million to his relatives and friends.
Fang Yun has resisted all these debts, and it is only natural to pay back the debts, so there is nothing to say.
But Fang's family signed a shareholding agreement, and the dividends they took before had already exceeded the share capital. After the factory closed down, they had to ask Fang Yun to withdraw the shares and pay back the money. There was no reason at all.
Lu Chen knew that his mother had repaid some money to Lin Ru, and the relationship between the Lu family and the Fang family became very cold because of this. Unexpectedly, their family came home today to demand debt from Fang Yun.
Simply superb!
How could Lu Chen not be angry: "If you want money, then go to the court and sue, now get the hell out of here!"
It is impossible for a court to uphold such a "debt".
How could Lin Ru not know
She was choked by Lu Chen's harsh words, the flesh on her fat face twitched, and she suddenly grabbed Fang Yuanzhong and howled, "Fang, just say something, just watch your nephew bully your wife Ah, you are dead!"
Fang Yuanzhong frowned, and let Lin Ru beat him. He looked at Fang Yun helplessly: "Xiaoyun..."
"Why are you talking to my mother?"
Fang Wenkang jumped up, and rushed towards Lu Chen aggressively: "Fuck your mother, you're looking for smoke!"
The living room suddenly jumped up and down, and it was chaotic!
Lu Chen saw Fang Wenkang reaching out to grab his chest. He dropped his backpack and didn't dodge. The moment the opponent's claws were about to touch his body, he suddenly raised his left hand and grabbed it.
"Snapped!"
The next moment, a heavy slap hit Fang Wenkang's face!
Fang Wenkang was caught off guard and was beaten into a daze. Lin Ru also stopped crying, dumbfounded.
Lu Chen covered his face with frost, pushed Fang Wenkang out with his left hand, and said in a deep voice, "Fang Wenkang, if you want to die, just say so, and I will help you!"
This kid used to fawn on him like a running dog before, but now he turned his face and dared to insult his mother.
Lu Chen wanted to kill Fang Wenkang, this slap was too light!
Fang Wenkang was almost pushed and fell to the ground. He covered his red and swollen face, and it took him a while to wake up.
Then he howled like a pig: "Mom, Lu Chen wants to kill me!"
Lin Ru was so angry that her nose was crooked, and she screamed, "Fang..."
For some reason, the cold expression on Lu Chen made her subconsciously feel a little fear, so she wanted to order Fang Yuanzhong to come forward to teach Lu Chen a lesson, but she didn't dare to do it herself.
"enough!"
Fang Yun yelled.
She was disheartened and said to Fang Yuanzhong: "Big brother, I will call you big brother one last time. I will find a way to return the money to you in the future. You can go."
There is nothing more sad than a dead heart, Fang Yuanzhong didn't dare to look into Fang Yun's eyes, his lips moved and he couldn't speak.
"No more!"
Lu Chen picked up the backpack on the ground and unzipped it abruptly: "Return it now!"
