Su Wen and Zhou Hengyang exchanged glances, paying no attention to the frightened Su Xiu and Su Xiu, and pretended to be panicked. “Third uncle… Why are you here?”
“It’s because Big Brother pa.s.sed away early, and you don’t have any elders.
Initially, they wanted to come to your house to cause a scene, burn the house, kidnap people—villains would do anything. The key is that if those loan sharks come looking for you, your reputation will be ruined. It might even affect Fifth sister’s college admission,” Su Xueqiang deliberately threatened, emphasizing the severity of the consequences.
Su Qing and Su Xiu were so scared their faces turned pale. If it weren’t for the inappropriateness of the situation, tears would have welled up.
Su Wen gently patted the two of them and used her eyes to convey that they shouldn’t be anxious. Soon, the two were comforted.
To Su Qing and Su Xiu, nothing was more powerful and important than their eldest sister. As long as Big Sister said it was fine, then it would be fine.
“What do we do now? The third uncle, please help me. What should I do? ” Su Wen asked in a panic. “Return the money? But I don’t have that much money now. I borrowed the car from someone else. The most valuable things in the house are the bicycle and sewing machine. If I sell them, will it be enough to pay off my debts?” she asked.
“How can it be enough?” Su Xueqiang slapped his thigh. “It’s not that I want to criticize you, but you borrowed from loan sharks for such a long time and didn’t return it. The interest has already acc.u.mulated to a huge amount. Even if you sell your house, it won’t be enough to pay off your debts, not to mention selling your bicycle and sewing machine.”
Su Wen sneered in her heart. She wished she could step forward and kick Su Xueqiang to death. Even if it was interest, it would not be to the extent that she could not afford it even if she sold the house. If Matchmaker Zhao followed the rules and came to ask for the debt, with her family’s current financial strength, she could pay it back. She was willing to pay her debts. However, some people were greedy and vicious.
Su Xuewen had been good to his younger brother when he was alive, but now his brother was vicious. The more Su Wen thought about it, the more hatred she felt. Suddenly, she realized the danger and stopped her hatred in time.
She couldn’t think about it.
She couldn’t fall into hatred.
She had nothing to do with the hatred, but it was related to her now, and the tragedy hadn’t happened yet.
With Hengyang around, she would get through this and bring these people to justice.
“Then what should we do?” Su Wen became more and more fl.u.s.tered, her eyes turning red.
Even Su Xiu and Su Qing realized that their big sister was acting. Their big sister would never be like this in the face of difficulties.
Only Zhou Hengyang remained silent. His pair of deep eyes lost their usual sharpness. They were like a dormant b.l.o.o.d.y beast, less aggressive and more complicated.
He kept looking at Su Wen.
He had been watching Su Wen without leaving a trace.
“Sigh!” Su Xueqiang pretended to be in a difficult position and sighed. “He said that he wants you to sell your sister to pay off your debts. This is the only way you can barely pay off your debts.”
Su Wen understood. Brother Zhu knew that the loan the original owner borrowed was not enough to force Su Wen to sell her sister and herself. If he asked for the debt openly, he would not be able to achieve his goal. The existence of Hengyang was an obstacle too.
That was why he had racked his brains to set up a trap.
Heng Yang was remarkable. He had seen through everything and made an accurate prediction.
As Su Wen thought of this, she secretly cast a look of admiration at Zhou Hengyang, who happened to meet his eyes that were as deep as the sea. His eyes were like a web of emotions that could read one’s mind with just one glance..
