Chapter 7: Justice For the Family

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Chen Yisong hung up the phone and was about to leave.

His wife, Jian Yunchun, saw that he was in a hurry and asked, “Where are you going? Why do you look so anxious?”

Chen Yisong was furious when he thought about it. “You’re really right. That money should have been stolen by that kid, Chen Jing. I just received a call. That kid, Chen Jing, is going to use our family’s money to pay off his debt.”

“Ah?” Jian Yunchun’s face darkened. “That’s even more impressive. Your Chen Family’s descendants actually has a thief, and he even stole from his own family. Chen Yisong, let me tell you. Stealing is stealing. Don’t think that just because he’s your nephew, you can let him off so easily. If he can steal 100,000 yuan from us without blushing or panicking this time, who knows what else he might steal next time? We simply can’t have such a relative anymore.”

“Do I even need you to say that?” Chen Yisong had no intention of letting him off lightly.

On the phone just now, Young Master Wang had already spoken in that manner. If he didn’t put justice before family this time, then he really wouldn’t be able to make money from real estate in the future.

“Although this matter looks like Chen Jing stole it on the surface, it might have been instigated by your brother. Even if he didn’t instigate it, he definitely knows about it. Hmph, his family is indeed not good. Let’s go. Let’s go together. I want to see what kind of face their family will have later.” Jian Yunchun immediately changed her shoes. She also rushed out the door.

They were in a rush and filled with anger.

When the couple arrived at the Chen Family’s restaurant, they saw that the debt collectors had also arrived.

The leader was the eldest son of Zhang Junnian, who was injured in the accident. He was already 27 years old. He was a gangster.

Apart from them, there were two other police officers here.

When Chen Yisong saw the police, he thought that it was good that he did not have to call the police.

The moment his wife Jian Yunchun stepped into the Chen Family’s restaurant, she opened her mouth to question him.

However, Chen Yisong pulled her back and whispered, “Don’t be anxious. Let’s see first. I want to see if he dares to take out that money in front of me.”

Jian Yunchun felt that it made sense when she heard that. He had stolen their family’s money. Now that the couple had come looking for him, she wanted to see if this thief, Chen Jing, had a guilty conscience.

Thus, the couple sat down at the side and watched coldly.

“Oh, Officer Liu is here too? That’s good. I received a call here asking me to come and get the money. I hope you won’t play me. My time is very precious.”

Zhang Junnian’s son, Zhang Hongfu, spoke with a cigarette in his mouth.

The old police chief, Liu Qisheng, said with a frown, “If you want to get the money, then get the money. Why did you bring so many people here? Are you trying to cause trouble again?” 

“Officer Liu, what are you talking about? My family is the victim. My father is still lying in the hospital. I was afraid that I would be besieged by them when I came here. That’s why I brought some relatives and friends to strengthen my courage. Is this also against the law?” Zhang Hongfu said.

“Shameless. You are clearly the one who brings people here to cause trouble every few days.” Chen Jing’s mother, Xu Yanlan, couldn’t help but curse.

Zhang Hongfu said coldly, “Don’t slander me. When did I cause trouble? My father was knocked into the hospital by your husband. My grandparents at home have to take care of him, and my younger brothers and sisters have to take care of him. If you don’t compensate us, how will our family live? I’m definitely here to urge you. If I don’t urge you, won’t you owe me until the end of time?”

“You’re shameless…” Xu Yanlan could not resist Zhang Hongfu’s thick skin in the end.

“Cut the crap. Didn’t you ask me to come and get the money? Where’s the money?” Zhang Hongfu knocked on the table and called out impatiently.

“What’s the rush? Since I asked you to come, I naturally have the money to give you. However, you have to sign this first.” Chen Jing had previously drafted a receipt agreement and found a printing shop to print it.

Although Officer Liu was the witness this time, it was only safe to have a written agreement.

Zhang Hongfu took the agreement and glanced at it. “Alright, give me the money and I’ll sign it. With Officer Liu here, are you afraid that I won’t admit to it?”

Chen Jing nodded and prepared to take the money from his bag.

Chen Yisong and his wife, who was sitting at the side, suddenly stood up.

The couple sat there with the intention of seeing if Chen Yiyuan’s family would feel guilty and not dare to take out the money.

In the end, their arrival was as if they had not been discovered at all.

Chen Yiyuan’s family did not even look at them.

Oh, Chen Yiyuan himself had not returned yet. He had received a call earlier and was rushing back.

As a result, this [Chen’s Restaurant] currently only had Chen Jing and Xu Yanlan.

Chen Jing had never been close to this Second Uncle.

Xu Yanlan was also very clear about Chen Yisong and his family’s attitude. She did not have a good impression of them either.

In addition to today’s situation, she naturally ignored the two of them.

However, in the eyes of Chen Yisong and his wife, this unintentional ‘neglect’ of Chen Jing and Xu Yanlan. this mother and son, had become a brazen ‘deliberate act’.

Chen Yisong thought to himself, ‘Great, he directly neglected me in front of him. Does he really think that I, his Second Uncle, have a good temper?’

Jian Yunchun also thought to herself, ‘What a coincidence, but Chen Yisong is far away. He probably doesn’t have the face to see his brother, so he’s deliberately hiding and doesn’t dare to come out, right?’

“Wait a moment.”

Chen Yisong also knocked on the table and shouted, “Since Officer Liu is here, I also have something to say.”

When he said this, everyone in [Chen’s Restaurant] looked at him.

Chen Yisong’s gaze shifted to Chen Jing and he said with a straight face, “Nephew, don’t you have anything you want to say to me?”

In the end, they were all relatives.

If he was willing to return the favor and apologize now, as an uncle, he did not have to be too ruthless.

But if he didn’t know what was good for him, then his relatives wouldn’t be relatives.

Chen Jing glanced at Chen Yisong and said with a smile, “Second Uncle, you’re here too? I’m sorry, but my house isn’t open today. There’s no free lunch for you. You can eat at another house.”

These words sounded a little rude.

Xu Yanlan patted Chen Jing as well, hinting at him not to be so rude.

However, the only one to blame was Chen Yisong’s poor impression of Chen Jing. As his nephew, he could not be any gentler.

Chen Jing sneered in his heart, ‘You’re my father’s biological brother. In the past, whenever it was a New Year’s or a festival, you would brag in front of my family about how rich your family was and how you were worth a few million yuan.’

‘But my family met with a difficult situation. My father asked you to lend him some money, but you didn’t have a single cent.’

‘Usually, you would come to my family’s restaurant to eat for free, but my father was honest and didn’t mind. I don’t have to treat you like an old master.’

Chen Jing shook his head and said, “Isn’t that so? Mom, when our family met with difficulties, Second Uncle, who claimed to be a millionaire, didn’t lend us a single cent. Even if we borrowed 10,000 yuan, it wouldn’t be to the extent that my father would return empty-handed, right? Today, Second Uncle, Second Aunt, the two of you are here to watch a joke, right? However, I might have to disappoint you. My family doesn’t need to borrow money from you. Don’t hide and say that you’re poor..”
