C14

It was only eight o'clock in the evening, and there were many people in a hurry on the street. I followed a few fashionable girls into the shop.

As soon as I entered the store, a female shop assistant wearing light makeup walked over and cordially asked me what kind of service I needed. After I said my reason for coming, the female shop assistant's expression immediately fell, without the slightest hint of respect from before.

I curiously pointed at the white paper in front of the store. "Aren't you all writing about hiring?"

The female shop assistant clutched her chest in dissatisfaction. "If I say there's no need, then there's no need. Hurry up and scram. Where are you from? Go scram!"

She twisted her butt and walked away from me.

I'm a bit annoyed. Why would a small shop assistant have a temper with me?

But I kept my temper. Besides, I'm not a fussy person.

After walking around outside for a while, he finally returned home helplessly.

Usually, the lights in the house would always be on, but after Liu Fangfang moved back to the room next door, I was the only one left in the huge house with three bedrooms and one living room.

I lay down on the sofa to rest for a while, but before I could get up, my phone suddenly vibrated. I took it out and saw that it was an unfamiliar number, which indicated that it belonged to a foreign country.

My parents were overseas and I, who was always treated as a fool, had suddenly recovered. Liu Fangfang must have informed them of the news, they might be extremely excited at the moment and wanted to come back to see me.

This phone call was the prelude to their imminent return.

"Hello, is this Yang Wei?!"

When I heard the cold voice on the phone, I was somewhat puzzled. It wasn't my parents who called me. I replied, "Yes. What business do you have with me?"

"I'm your parents' private lawyer, you can call me Lawyer Wang. I'm calling specifically today because there's something I have to tell you. I hope you're prepared. "

The male voice on the phone claimed to be a private lawyer. Even in foreign countries, there were very few who could have a private lawyer. From this, it could be seen that my parents were doing well abroad.

"Alright, Lawyer Wang, please speak."

I tried to sound polite. If Lawyer Wang could reach my parents, at least he wouldn't feel like I had no home tutor. Even if I recovered suddenly, I would still be able to be a normal person.

But for some reason, Lawyer Wang's words made me feel a faint uneasiness. I didn't know where it came from, but it made me feel extremely uncomfortable.

Lawyer Wang said, "Your parents own a company with a market value of over 100 million overseas, but they also have many competitors. Although the two sides usually look calm, the actual situation is very serious.

"Lawyer Wang, what do you mean?"

I frowned and said, "Please speak frankly."

The other end was silent for a moment, then Lawyer Wang's voice came through the phone, "Before this, there were already people who wanted to make a move against your parents, but they were all unsuccessful. Only this time, your parents' most trusted people betrayed them, they couldn't escape."

"A threat of martial arts?! Sold them? You failed to escape? "

I was stunned for a moment and immediately reacted. I felt the phone in my hand suddenly become heavy. My throat was a little dry as I said, "What you mean is, my parents … Is there any danger? "

"No, not in danger. They've been killed. I just called to let you know. Furthermore, with the passing of your parents, the company they started will not only be annexed, but will also face a huge debt. According to federal law, the legal responsibility for this huge debt will fall onto you, which means, right now, not only will you face the sadness of your parents' passing, you will also have to face a sky-high debt. "

"How much?"

I finally understood why, from the moment I received the call, I felt uncomfortable, not because of Lawyer Wang, but because of what he had told me.

I also understood why he sounded like this. If he was really my parents' lawyer, he would at least show the proper respect for my only son, and not the icy way he was speaking now.

"Probably... The initial debt estimate is one million five hundred thousand dollars. "

Lawyer Wang hung up the phone. I listened to the beep on the phone in a daze.

Just a moment ago, I wanted to prove to my parents that I was the one who had dragged them down for the past decade or so, but in the days to come, I would use my own efforts to tell them that I wasn't a piece of trash, that I could at least support myself.

However, the ruthless reality gave me a harsh slap in the face, turning all my fantasies into dust.

The call lasted three minutes and forty-two seconds, during which time I lost my real parents and faced a huge debt that I would never be able to pay in my entire life.

I lay on my back on the couch, staring at the bright white ceiling illuminated by the lights, and the phone slipped from my hand and fell to the floor with a thud.

It was summer, and the room was hot, but I still felt a cold that seeped into my soul, came in from all directions, and then corroded my body, as if my heart were slowly being torn apart.

Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of the cigarette that had been casually placed on the table. I took one and lit it.

Smoke swirled around the room, smoke burned between my fingers, the silence was terrible, and soon a cigarette burned out and I continued to light it.

I don't know how long later, just as I was about to fall asleep in the smoke, the door opened and a familiar figure walked in.

Suddenly, I recognized that it was Liu Fangfang. What is she doing here?

"Little Hao! My little ancestor! "How many cigarettes have you smoked?!"

As soon as Liu Fangfang entered, she coughed continuously, while trying her best to fan the smoke in front of him, she ran towards me.

She helped me up from the sofa. Due to the fact that I was wearing pajamas, a large part of the snow-white gully on her chest was exposed, but I couldn't find any interest in her at all.

"Little Hao?! Why aren't you talking? What's the matter with you? What's the matter? Why aren't you talking? Come, Little Hao, Big Sis will send you to the hospital. "

Liu Fangfang nervously caressed my head, and then extended her hand behind my head, attempting to pick me up. But it seemed that I was too heavy, and even though Liu Fangfang tried hard for a long time, thin beads of perspiration flowed down all the way to her face, she was still unable to pick me up successfully.

In the end, he could only cough as he struggled to help me out the door.

As I was about to exit the door, I suddenly stopped in my tracks. I looked at Liu Fangfang and saw that her face seemed to be capable of turning into a mage and that she had transformed into the appearance of my parents. I couldn't help but say, "I really want to cry."
