Chapter 77 The Real Estate Tycoon's Imminent Demise!
Chapter 77 The Real Estate Tycoon's Imminent Demise!
After dinner!
The family chatted happily by the fire in the courtyard.
Chen Bolin and Li Xiuying listened in astonished as their daughter and son-in-law recounted how Chen Le had bought them a house and a car. When they heard about how their in-laws were also taken aback, they burst into laughter.
Su Xi held her daughter Xin Xin, listening with great interest, her eyes sparkling with a different kind of light.
At this moment, she vaguely realized it.
Chen Le seems to have really changed.
Knowing and sympathizing with the hardships her older sister and brother-in-law had endured, she showed gratitude and resolved the family's worries.
On the contrary, Chen Bolin, after laughing, picked up his old pipe and went out for a walk.
Chen Le was a little worried, so he went outside and found his father standing next to the new car he had bought for his brother-in-law.
They would reach out and touch it from time to time, looking both distressed and delighted.
Then, as if remembering something, he sighed slowly and laughed.
"Dad, what's wrong...?"
Chen Le stepped forward with a smile on his face.
"You little rascal, you scared me!"
Chen Bolin was startled, his face flushed red, and he quickly raised his iron fist and cursed.
"Hey, don't hit me..."
"I came over to ask what was wrong because you seemed unhappy, but you started hitting me with your fists right away. Can't you change this habit?"
Chen Le was so frightened that he turned and ran away.
"stop!"
Chen Bolin grabbed Chen Le's arm and whispered, "This car... isn't cheap, is it?"
“You’re doing well now, but you can’t keep spending like this. You need to learn to save…”
"No matter how much money you have, you need to save it early, otherwise what will you do if you have nothing to live on in your next life..."
"And in our careers, we can't be careless. We must work diligently and not take shortcuts!"
Listening to his father's words of advice, Chen Le felt a warm glow in his heart.
He could feel his father's care and consideration.
I earn money so that my family can be happy.
Just hearing my father say, "You've made something of yourself," makes me feel truly content.
"Don't worry, Dad."
"I've remembered everything you said."
Chen Le smiled and said earnestly, "My son went astray before and became a complete villain. He drove you two to the brink of suicide several times, but he held back because of his younger siblings."
“Things are different now. Our son has become successful, so he has to repay you for all the hard work you've done over the years.”
“I put two family cards under the blanket by the bedside. You and Mom can buy whatever you want.”
"There's still over 300,000 left in the east wing. You and Mom can decide how to spend it, don't try to save this little bit of money for me."
"Now that my eldest sister's matter is resolved, shouldn't we use the remaining money to properly support you two?"
"As for Xiaoming and Xile, please rest assured. I will personally go to the school to take care of them after we return to Tianzhou."
"As long as I'm here, they'll both be absolutely safe and sound."
The autumn wind is chilly, and the temperature is gradually dropping.
But Chen Le's words were like a gentle spring breeze, warming up the entire street.
"You kid..."
Upon seeing this scene, Chen Bolin's eyes reddened and his lips trembled slightly.
He knew that his son had truly grown up.
This growth is not only reflected in his achievements, but also in the fact that he has finally taken on the responsibilities of his family.
Whether it's the larger family or the individual family, everything was handled so well...
However, jade cannot become a useful object without being carved.
He still needs to be scolded!
"Father, don't worry..."
Knowing his father's tendency to nag, Chen Le quickly said, "Even if I have a lot of money, I won't spend it recklessly!"
"I'll go back and work really hard, extremely hard!"
Chen Bolin crossed his arms, squinted, and asked, "Really?"
Chen Le sighed and said helplessly, "Really!"
Jingle Bell!
As fate would have it, Chen Le's phone rang at that moment.
Chen Le quickly took out his phone, glanced at it, and immediately narrowed his eyes.
The person who called was Xiao Qiangwei.
After Zhang Zihao introduced her to help Xiao Qiangwei and Chu Yaoyang out of their predicament, this woman disappeared.
Why did you call me suddenly?
Is there something important?
Or... should I thank you?
Ultimately, they are all related to business.
We've come at the perfect time!
It's a good way to get rid of my dad's nagging.
"Dad, look, the business is here!"
Chen Le immediately beamed and said to Chen Bolin, "Son is off to work now, don't worry!"
"That's more like it. Let's get back to work."
Chen Bolin patted Chen Le on the shoulder with satisfaction before carrying his tobacco pouch back into the courtyard.
He hummed a little tune along the way, and seemed to be in a much better mood.
Chen Le smiled and answered the phone.
"Hello? Is this Brother Chen? This is Xiao Qiangwei."
After the call connected, Chen Le heard a polite voice on the other end.
"Oh, Miss Xiao, has the problem from last time been resolved?"
Chen Le remained calm and asked indifferently.
"solved!"
"Thanks to Mr. Chen's guidance, our company successfully weathered the crisis... Not only that, but our daily transaction volume has even doubled!"
"Upon closer reflection, if it weren't for you, sir, our company would be completely finished..."
"Not only will it lead to bankruptcy, but it will also result in countless legal disputes..."
"I've been looking for an opportunity to repay you, and now that it's a holiday, I'd like to invite you to dinner!"
Xiao Qiangwei's words revealed her heartfelt gratitude and respect for Chen Le.
"Not at all, since it's Mr. Zhang who's in charge, we're friends."
Chen Le smiled calmly and replied humbly, "These are all small things within my ability; there's no need to worry about them."
"Brother Chen, you are too modest. Your help is like sending charcoal in snowy weather; how can it be considered a small matter?"
Xiao Qiangwei's laughter revealed sincerity.
Although Chen Le is magnanimous, she truly keeps this kindness in her heart and regards it as a precious treasure.
"Wait, Miss Xiao, there's something I need to ask you."
Chen Le shook his head slightly and said calmly.
Just as Chen Le received Xiao Qiangwei's call, his eyelids twitched violently.
I closed my eyes, and scenes began to appear...
In the video, Xiao Qiangwei's father is seen frantically investing money in the stock market.
It started at three million.
Then five million, ten million...
Fifty million……
Then they spent over 100 million...
Total loss!
They sold off many of the company's assets, converted the proceeds into cash, and invested it all in stocks!
In the end, having lost everything, he chose to commit suicide by poisoning himself!
The once-powerful tycoon was found dead, his body already decomposed.
"hiss……"
Chen Le gasped, his brows furrowing tightly.
Xiao Qiangwei's father, Xiao Ding, was once a leading figure in Tianzhou Real Estate.
As early as twenty years ago, when urbanization covered less than 50 percent of the land, Xiao's Real Estate was founded and remains a leading enterprise today!
Fifteen years ago, he had already raised tens of billions in funding and his net worth exceeded three billion.
However, as more and more real estate companies emerged, like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, and renowned real estate enterprises from all over the country moved in, the market became saturated, and the Xiao family began to decline.
Calculate the days carefully.
In his previous life, Xiao Ding apparently committed suicide by jumping off a building because he lost money in the stock market.
The date should be around these next few days...
Human life is at stake.
Since Xiao Qiangwei is Zhang Zihao's friend.
Therefore, Xiao Ding's life must be saved...
After all, tomorrow...
