Two days later, Su Daqiang logged into the mobile client of Haofu Financial Management as usual, wanting to see how much profit he had made yesterday, but he could not log in. He sent a WeChat message to Xiao Jinfa, the chief consultant of Haofu Financial Management, to ask what was going on, but found that the message could not be sent. He was blocked by the other party, and even the financial management group was disbanded.

Su Daqiang suddenly became anxious. He called Lao Nie, and the two of them took a taxi to go to the Haofu Financial Company to check it out.

When he arrived at the Haofu Financial Company, he saw that the door was locked. Su Daqiang leaned on the glass door and looked inside. The company was in a mess and everything was emptied out. Su Daqiang was stunned. He opened his dull eyes and his mind was blank.

Old Nie was better off. He had come into contact with Haofu Financial Management earlier and had made a lot of money before. Later, he redeemed all the investment money and bought stocks. When he accompanied Su Daqiang to the company for additional investment, he couldn't resist the temptation and invested 20,000 yuan with Su Daqiang. As a result, he didn't lose much, and with a good mentality, nothing happened to him and he was relatively calm.

But Su Daqiang was different. He had just started managing his finances and invested all his savings of 60,000 yuan at once. Moreover, he had originally invested with the mentality of making a fortune and attached great importance to money. Now faced with this situation, he was stunned. He put his hands on the glass door of the Haofu Financial Company, unable to speak, and just stared at the inside of the glass door with his dead fish eyes.

At this time, seeing the cleaning lady mopping the floor in the corridor next to him, Old Nie hurriedly stepped forward and asked:
"Hello, there used to be an investment and financial management company here called Haofu Financial Management. Have they moved away?"

"Oh, that's a fraud company. A lot of people have come to them in the past two days, even the police have come. Most of the people who have been deceived are elderly people. Have you been deceived too?"

As she spoke, the cleaning lady glanced at Old Nie and Su Daqiang who was still lying on the glass door.

"Liar, liar."

Su Daqiang muttered to himself, slammed the glass door with both hands, and collapsed to the ground crying loudly.

"My money, my money."

"Da Qiang, Da Qiang."

……

At this time, Su Mingyu was in a villa in the city.

Yuan Xudong prepared breakfast and brought it to the table. He and Su Mingyu each had one portion. Seeing him sit down across from her at the table, Su Mingyu smiled and said,

"I eat the meals you cook for me every day. Now I can't eat food outside. Tell me, what should I do in the future?"

"That's easy."

Looking at Su Mingyu, Yuan Xudong smiled and said:
"I will cook for you every day from now on until you get tired of it."

"What if I don't get tired of eating it?"

Su Mingyu smiled. Glancing at her, Yuan Xudong helped her pick all the carrots from the plate and put them on his own plate, then smiled and said:
"Then I will keep doing it for you until the day I am too old to do it anymore."

"is it?"

Seeing Yuan Xudong picking all the carrots that he didn't like to eat and putting them on his plate, Su Mingyu smiled and said:
"You sound nice, but why don't you propose to me?"

After picking all the carrots, Yuan Xudong handed the plate to Su Mingyu and said with a smile:
"Marriage is the grave of love, and family is the harbor of the soul. Don't you think the way we are now is pretty good?"

"Hey, Yuan Xudong, I say, are you really not a scumbag?"

While eating the fried rice made by Yuan Xudong, Su Mingyu looked up at him and asked:
"Tell me the truth, how many girlfriends have you had?"

"I've only talked to one person in my life."

Yuan Xudong told the truth.

"I do not believe."

Su Mingyu obviously didn't believe it. She looked at Yuan Xudong and smiled:
"You've been in the United States for so many years, and you've never had a girlfriend?"

"No, I really don't have this."

"Do you think I will believe it?"

"meeting."

Yuan Xudong nodded very seriously and rolled his eyes at him. Su Mingyu ate the fried rice on the plate and said:

"You have such good cooking skills, it would be a pity if you didn't become a chef."

As soon as she finished speaking, the cell phone she placed on the table rang. She took a look and saw that the caller ID was Dad. Su Mingyu frowned slightly and picked up the phone to answer the call.

"Hey."

"What's the situation? Which hospital?"

"Okay, I see."

Seeing that Su Mingyu hung up the phone with a bad look on her face, Yuan Xudong asked:

"What's wrong? What happened?"

"I don't know. A friend of my dad called me on his cell phone and said that my dad had fainted and is now in the city hospital. He didn't tell me the details."

As she spoke, Su Mingyu stood up from her seat, put on her coat, picked up her bag and prepared to go out to the city hospital.

"I'm going to the city hospital. You can eat slowly."

"I'll go with you."

"Okay, let's go."

Yuan Xudong accompanied Su Mingyu to the municipal hospital.

……

City Hospital Emergency Room.

In the ward, Su Mingcheng and Zhu Li had already arrived, but they didn't see Old Nie. The doctor was talking to Su Mingcheng and Zhu Li about Su Daqiang's condition. At this time, Yuan Xudong and Su Mingyu walked into the ward and heard the doctor say:
"The old man was over-stimulated mentally. It seems that there is no big problem now. He can be discharged from the hospital after half a day of observation. After returning home, you need to take good care of him. He has high blood pressure and cannot have any mood swings."

"Okay, thank you doctor."

Julie thanked.

After the doctor left, Su Mingcheng looked at Su Daqiang, who was lying on the bed with his head covered with a quilt, and said angrily:
"What did I say? I told you not to go out with Uncle Nie, but you didn't listen. Now it's over. You've been fooled. I think you were fooled by him. You wanted to make a fortune, but now you've been fooled by the liar, right?"

"Su Mingcheng, how do you talk to Dad?"

Su Mingyu yelled at Su Mingcheng. After looking at her, Su Mingcheng glared and said:
"This is our Su family's business. You don't need an outsider like you to come here and make irresponsible remarks. Get out of here right now!"

"Mingcheng, what are you talking about?"

Zhu Li reached out and tugged at Su Mingcheng's sleeve. She looked at Su Mingyu and apologized with a smile:
"Mingyu, I'm sorry. Mingcheng is just too worried about dad's matter, so that's why he behaved like this."

Su Mingyu already knew what kind of person Su Mingcheng was. She ignored him and looked at Zhu Li, who was more sensible, and asked:

"Sister-in-law, we just arrived too. What's going on with Dad? Where's the friend who brought Dad to the hospital?"

"He, he has gone back."

Zhu Li smiled awkwardly, and then she glanced at Su Mingcheng beside her. Su Mingcheng said directly:
"He's the one who helps Dad with his finances. I suspect he's in league with those scammers. If he hadn't run away so fast, I would have beaten him up."

Hearing this, Zhu Li glared at Su Mingcheng. She looked at Su Mingyu and Yuan Xudong and explained awkwardly:

"Here's what happened. Uncle Nie was actually a victim, and many other people were deceived. They all called the police. Dad invested 60,000 yuan, and it was all gone in an instant. He couldn't handle it and fainted. Uncle Nie called an ambulance and sent Dad to the hospital."

At this time, Su Mingcheng walked to the bedside and said:
"Dad, I know you're not asleep. Get up and explain to us clearly whether it was that old Nie who induced you to invest?"

Seeing that Su Daqiang still didn't respond, Su Mingcheng angrily pulled back the quilt.

"Get up!"

At this time, Su Daqiang bit his hand in his mouth and cried. Seeing him like this, Su Mingcheng's anger suddenly dissipated. He said helplessly and angrily:

"What's the point of you crying now? Mom said you're not destined to get rich, but you still want to make extra money. Weren't you showing off a few days ago? Why aren't you showing off now?"

"Su Mingcheng, how do you talk to Dad?!"

"What's it to you how I talk to my dad?!"

Seeing that Su Mingyu was about to quarrel with Su Mingcheng again, Yuan Xudong grabbed her arm and advised:
"Okay, this is a hospital, please keep quiet. Besides, didn't the doctor just say that uncle can't be provoked anymore?"

Zhu Li on the side also advised Su Mingcheng:

"Alright, alright, speak properly and stop irritating Dad."

"Sixty thousand dollars, what do you say we should do now?"

Su Mingcheng was angry. He was not worried about Su Daqiang, but he was worried about the money. He and Zhu Li saved money to pay back Su Daqiang, but Su Daqiang was so arrogant before, but now he suddenly behaved like this again, which made him very angry.

When Su Daqiang heard Su Mingcheng mention 60,000 yuan, he could no longer hold back and burst into tears.

"I was wrong, Mingcheng, I shouldn't have disobeyed you. I really wasn't destined to get rich. I wasn't destined to get rich!"

Looking at Su Daqiang who was crying loudly, Su Mingyu was angry and amused. She said helplessly:
"Dad, you are already so old, why do you still think about getting rich every day?"

"My money, I won't live any longer."

Su Daqiang cried and jumped out of bed. He rushed to the window and said, "I'm going to jump off the building."
"What dignity do I have left to live? Just let me go with your mother."

The person couldn't jump down from the window. Besides, if he really wanted to, it would only take a moment and no one could stop him. Su Daqiang just lost his money and started to act unreasonably again.

Looking at him, Su Mingcheng said, "Okay, I don't blame you anymore, just stop making trouble, okay?"

"Yes, Dad, even if you jump, you can't get the money back."

Hearing what Zhu Li said, Su Daqiang looked at her and cried:

"I don't care, I just want my money back. Call the police and ask them to get my money back as soon as possible."

"Here……"

Zhu Li was speechless. At this time, Su Mingcheng sat on the bed. He looked at Su Daqiang and said:

"Do you think our police station is owned by our family? Why did you call them to urge them to hurry up? What on earth were you thinking?"

"I don't care, I just want my money, I really jumped."

"dad."

Looking at Su Daqiang, Su Mingyu said directly:

"If you want to jump, just jump. You can see my mother after you jump. Jump and we will be relieved."

"Su Mingyu, are you sick?"

Su Mingcheng shouted and glanced at him. Su Mingyu ignored him and walked up to Su Daqiang and said:
"With your current physical condition, you can live at least another 20 years. Your monthly pension is 5,000 yuan, which is 60,000 yuan a year, and 1.2 million yuan in 20 years. If you jump now, you will lose 1.2 million yuan. If you don't jump, you will only lose 60,000 yuan, not counting the money your children have given you.

Oh, by the way, that old house is also yours. Tell me, with such good conditions, will your quality of life in your later years be bad? Do the math, are you still interested?"

Su Daqiang was reluctant to die in the first place, and jumping off the building was just a pretense. Now after hearing what Su Mingyu said, although he still felt very uncomfortable about being cheated out of 60,000 yuan, he thought about it. He had a monthly pension of 5,000 yuan, and Su Mingcheng and Zhu Li had to pay him 4,000 yuan every month, plus the living expenses of 60 yuan a day. Wouldn't the 60,000 yuan be just a matter of more than five months?

Thinking of this, Su Daqiang stopped making trouble. Su Mingyu helped him sit on the bed. She looked at Su Mingcheng and Zhu Li and said:
"You guys go out first. I want to talk to Dad alone for a while."

Su Mingcheng was about to get angry when he heard Su Mingyu say that. Zhu Li quickly pulled him out. Yuan Xudong was about to follow them out when Su Mingyu said:

"Xudong, you stay."

"it is good."

After looking at Su Mingcheng and Zhu Li, Yuan Xudong stayed. Su Mingcheng wanted to stay and didn't leave, so Zhu Li quickly pulled him away and closed the door.

In the ward.

Su Daqiang sat on the hospital bed and cried. Su Mingyu moved a stool and sat in front of him. She used a napkin to wipe his tears, showing her gentle side rarely.

Seeing her like this, Yuan Xudong stood beside her and quietly turned on his mobile phone to take a photo. He wanted to capture Su Mingyu's gentle side and show it to her when he returned.

Helping Su Daqiang wipe away his tears, Su Mingyu said softly:
"Don't act like this in the future. Just take this as a lesson. Be down-to-earth and don't mess around anymore. Losing money doesn't matter. Being healthy is all that matters. The doctor said you can't get too emotional. Don't cry."

After Su Daqiang wiped away his tears and stopped crying, Su Mingyu asked with a smile:

"Let me ask you, don't you only have over 40,000 in savings? Where did the 60,000 come from? Do you have any hidden money?"

"I, I don't have any private money. Isn't that the money Mingcheng and his wife used to pay off my debt?"

“You invested all of it?”

"Ah, they say that you lose money if you deposit money in the bank, and that this has higher interest rates than the bank. Who knew it was a scam? I just want to make some money, right?"

"How do you make money? Who do you want to support? The couple provides you with food and drink, and pays your bills. You also get a pension of 5,000 yuan every month. Isn't this enough for you to spend?"

"I eat and drink for free at Mingcheng's house all day long. I can't bear the shame. I just want to make some money. Do I have the nerve to do that?"

"What do you mean? Did they both give you a cold look?"

"Not always, but sometimes a little."

Looking at Su Mingyu, Su Daqiang deliberately provoked:

"They don't cook for me, so I have to go out to find food every day. Mingcheng is always mean to me, and Lili is even more hostile to me. She says I smell and stink up their house, and she also says I disturb their rest by going to the bathroom all the time at night. Mingyu, Dad is having a hard time."

"I'll go find them!"

Su Mingyu was furious when she heard this. She thought Su Mingcheng and Zhu Li had finally taken up their responsibilities, but she didn't expect that they would treat Su Daqiang like this behind his back.

Seeing that Su Mingyu was about to go to Su Mingcheng and Zhu Li to settle the score, Su Daqiang grabbed her and said:
"Mingyu, don't go look for them. If you go look for them, isn't that what I told you? Then how can I live in Mingcheng's house in the future?"

"Dad, come live with me. I'll support you from now on. I'll hire a nanny to take care of you."

"Don't go, don't go."

Su Daqiang shook his head and refused. He was very free living in Su Mingcheng's house. If he went to live in Su Mingyu's house, although the conditions were better, he would not be free. The provocative words he just said to Su Mingyu were only one-tenth true and nine-tenths false. Su Mingcheng and Zhu Li both had to go to work. Zhu Li didn't cook before, and all three meals were takeout. Now, she has started cooking, but she lets Su Daqiang eat out at noon, and gives him fifty yuan a day for living expenses, and now it is sixty.

The problem with going to the toilet is that he doesn't flush it after using it, and his body smells because he doesn't take a shower. Zhu Li would complain to Su Mingcheng in private, but every time she saw Su Daqiang, she was smiling and was as respectful to him as possible.

Su Mingcheng was a bad boy when he was young, and he still depended on his parents when he grew up, but now he can be considered filial to Su Daqiang. He has a bad temper and sometimes says something to Su Daqiang.

As for Su Daqiang, he was smashing bowls and chopsticks on the table at Su Mingcheng's house and was very arrogant, especially in the past few days. He made some money from financial management and went out to drink and eat out every day and came home very late. Now he pretended to be pitiful in front of Su Mingyu and deliberately said that Su Mingcheng and Zhu Li were abusing him.

Su Mingyu is the one who is confused as she is involved in the matter, while Yuan Xudong is the bystander who sees things clearly. He was taking pictures secretly from the side, and originally wanted to capture Su Mingyu's gentle side, but unexpectedly captured Su Daqiang's ugly side. Some old people do this on purpose, saying that their children have abused them, and they are complaining, pretending to be pitiful to gain sympathy. I don't know if it's because the bad guys have grown old, or if people become like children when they get old and complain about evil.

Yuan Xudong put the phone into his pocket and stopped taking pictures.

After comforting Su Daqiang for a while and letting him lie down on the bed to have a good rest, Su Mingyu walked out of the ward angrily, intending to settle the score with Su Mingcheng and Zhu Li. After Su Daqiang's instigation, Su Mingyu now not only has opinions about Su Mingcheng, but also about Zhu Li. She used to think that Zhu Li was a good person, but she didn't expect that she was like this behind her back?
In the hospital corridor, Su Mingyu walked forward angrily. Yuan Xudong grabbed her and advised:

"Mingyu, calm down. Seeing is believing, hearing is not. Have you ever thought that your father might be deliberately complaining to you like a child?"

"My dad is not a child. He won't deliberately tell on Su Mingcheng and his wife about their bad deeds."

Su Mingyu directly shook off Yuan Xudong's hand. She rushed to the rest area of ​​the hospital and started arguing with Su Mingcheng and his wife. She did not mention what Su Daqiang had told her, but just said that the couple did not take good care of Su Daqiang.

Su Mingyu felt that she was right, but Su Mingcheng and Zhu Li thought that she was just talking nonsense and felt very wronged, especially Zhu Li. She had never cooked at home and now had to go to work during the day and buy groceries and cook for Su Daqiang when she came home at night. Now Su Mingyu blamed her for not taking good care of Su Daqiang. How else could she be expected to take care of him?
Looking at Su Mingyu, Su Mingcheng pointed at the exit of the hospital and shouted:
"Get out, get out. From now on, anything in the Su family has nothing to do with you. Get out now!"

After looking at Su Mingcheng, Su Mingyu left the hospital directly. Yuan Xudong did not leave with her, but looked at Zhu Li who was angry and said:

"Ms. Zhu, can I talk to you alone?"

"Who are you? What do you want to talk about?"

After taking a look at Su Mingcheng who was full of anger, Yuan Xudong said:
"Mr. Su, calm down. I just tried to persuade Mingyu. I apologize to you on her behalf. She was a little impulsive. I'm sorry."

"You have the right to..."

"Okay, Mingcheng, this is a hospital, stop making noise and go to the ward to see dad."

After saying that, Zhu Li looked at Yuan Xudong and said:
"Let's go talk outside."

"it is good."

After taking a look at Su Mingcheng who looked unhappy, Yuan Xudong and Zhu Li left the hospital together.

On the road outside the hospital, Zhu Li looked at Yuan Xudong and asked directly:
"What do you want to talk to me about?"

"Do you know why Mingyu suddenly got angry at you?"

As he spoke, Yuan Xudong took out his mobile phone from his pocket, turned it on, and found the video he had just recorded in the folder to show Zhu Li.

"Look at this, Mingyu didn't mean to get mad at you guys."

"what is this?"

Zhu Li was watching the video with Yuan Xudong's mobile phone. The beginning of the video showed Su Mingyu caring about Su Daqiang, and then Su Daqiang complained to Su Mingyu, saying that she and Su Mingcheng were not good to him and gave him a cold look.

Slowly, Zhu Li's face became colder and colder. She was angry with Su Mingyu before, but now she transferred all her anger to Su Daqiang.

After she finished watching the video, Yuan Xudong took the phone back and deleted the video in front of her.

"Why did you delete it?"

Zhu Li said that she was planning to make a copy to show Su Mingcheng. Was this what his father said about them in front of Su Mingyu?

"Why keep it if you don't delete it?"

Looking at Zhu Li, Yuan Xudong said:
"I'm showing this to you so that you don't misunderstand Mingyu. She did something wrong, but she's not a bad person."

"Who is the bad guy then?"

Looking at Yuan Xudong, Zhu Li said:
"Are you a bad guy? Or..."

Zhu Li didn't continue talking, but Yuan Xudong knew who she wanted to talk about. This was also Yuan Xudong's purpose. Once Su Daqiang's house was demolished, he would be able to take advantage of the situation.

After all, Zhu Li is not Su Daqiang's biological daughter, they have no blood relationship. She is nice to Su Daqiang not out of affection, but out of a sense of responsibility and her own cultivation and quality. She feels that she should take good care of Su Daqiang, but this responsibility is not solid. As long as there are enough reasons to give up, Zhu Li will not be able to hold on.

And Yuan Xudong is now giving Zhu Li a reason to give up. Of course, this kind of thing cannot be achieved overnight, but it will plant a thorn in Zhu Li's heart, and when the time is right, it will suddenly erupt.

"I started recording this video just to record Mingyu's gentle side, but I didn't expect..."
