Chapter 90 The Ninetieth Day After Stopping Running Away The ninetieth day after stopping running away...

Chen Bozheng and his group were stunned.

How come I run into this kind of thing as soon as I arrive?

"President Liang." Seeing that Liang Wenxuan was about to fall, Wang Jianquan went up to help him. A man and a woman ran out from inside. The man was about to hit Liang with a brick, but the woman next to him stopped him.

But a woman's strength is nowhere near that of a man's; no matter how hard she tried to pull him back, she couldn't. So she could only say to Liang Wenxuan, "Brother, why don't you run!"

Liang Wenxuan's face turned pale and then red, clearly showing both shame and anger.

Chen Bo gave Wang Jianquan a meaningful look and quickly pulled him away.

Never mind what's going on here, if that brick falls, it's no joke.

Wang Jianquan and Liang Wenxuan have had quite a few dealings.

In Wang Jianquan's words, of all the times he and his comrades had worked together, only Chen Bozheng and Liang Wenxuan had ever paid him in full.

Therefore, Wang Jianquan wanted to join forces with Liang Wenxuan and his Wanxing.

Ultimately, doing business depends on the character of your business partners.

If someone has good character and is reliable, even if they lose money temporarily, they can recover in the future. But if someone has bad character, things are uncertain. You have to be on edge all the time when cooperating with such a person. No matter how well the business is doing for a while, it will eventually collapse.

Santana took the four people to a nearby Sichuan restaurant.

Liang Wenxuan was clearly embarrassed. After ordering the food, he said to Wang Jianquan and the others, "Brothers, I'm really sorry to have made you laugh. This meal is on me. Boss, bring two cases of beer."

Wang Jianquan quickly stopped Liang Wenxuan and said to the approaching shopkeeper, "Just one pitcher will do."

“That won’t do,” Liang Wenxuan said. “You’ve come all this way. If we can’t reach an agreement today, I have to show my appreciation.”

Chen Bozheng said, "President Liang, if you say that, you're not treating us like friends. Everyone encounters unexpected things. If we were to hold grudges against everything, how could we possibly manage? We'll treat this meal as if we've come all this way to have dinner with you, our friend. Just for the sake of you as a friend, this meal is worth it no matter what we eat."

Chen Bozheng's words were frank and straightforward, which made Liang Wenxuan feel much better.

After the food and wine were served, Liang Wenxuan took a few sips and gradually began to open up.

The guy who was about to hit him was his godbrother-in-law, Hu Cheng. Hu Cheng and Liang Wenxuan used to be real estate agents. Real estate agents are brokers who help people buy and sell houses and profit from the price difference.

For example, if a seller wants to sell a house for 50,000, a real estate speculator knows that the house is available, so he looks for a buyer and sells it for 70,000. In this way, 20,000 yuan ends up in his pocket.

This industry is a highly profitable one, requiring no initial investment. However, it's not easy to get into this business. First, you need to be well-informed, such as having friends at the housing management office or someone who can tell you where people are selling houses. That's one hurdle. Second, you also need to know wealthy people, know who has money, and be willing to buy.

In this line of work, you can't get in without someone you know guiding you.

The reason Liang Wenxuan was willing to take Hu Cheng under his wing was because Hu Cheng had married his god-sister, Sun Yue.

Liang Wenxuan and Sun Yueqing were childhood sweethearts. Sun Yueqing's mother went abroad many years ago and disappeared. She returned a couple of years ago empty-handed. Her father raised Sun Yueqing alone. Liang Wenxuan's situation was similar. His father was conscripted and went to Taiwan, leaving his mother alone.

The two were in similar situations; both were considered "black five categories" in their early years and were ostracized, so they had a very good relationship, almost like siblings.

"If it weren't for my sister, I would have beaten that bastard to death long ago."

Speaking of this, Liang Wenxuan was furious.

"I had a good discussion with him about this real estate deal with Kaiwanxing. We agreed that we would each contribute 700,000 yuan and split the profits 50/50. He agreed verbally, but he kept dragging his feet on the payment. Today, I realized it was really going to get out of hand, so I pressed him for the money, and he turned on me! Damn it, I knew that bastard was up to something by delaying the transfer of the money to the company account."

Hua Lingfeng ate some peanuts and exchanged a glance with Chen Bozheng.

Hua Lingfeng's eyes were filled with worry. Given Wanxing's situation, could they still cooperate?

Putting aside other issues, if Wondershare itself is fighting amongst itself, it's hard to guarantee that future collaborations won't be fraught with problems.

Up until now, Hua Lingfeng, Chen Bozheng and Wang Jianquan have all gotten along very well. Although there are some conflicts, they can discuss them properly.

Wang Jianquan couldn't help but pour Liang Wenxuan a glass of wine and ask, "Mr. Liang, so you're saying you've been scammed? Hu Cheng didn't pay a single penny, but your company still has to give him half."

Liang Wenxuan took a sip of his drink. "No, I'm not stupid. I was prepared for this bastard to pull this trick on me. The company's business license, seals, and everything else are currently all in my own name. To be honest, this company is just me right now. Oh, right, there's 700,000 yuan, but nothing else."

Seven hundred thousand?

Not a lot, but not a little either.

Chen Bo was giving Wang Jianquan a look, about to ask him to bring up the matter of jointly bidding for land, when Liang Wenxuan's cell phone rang.

Liang Wenxuan picked up his mobile phone, answered the call, said "hello," and then sat up straight, his eyes serious and his face darkening.

"Wait here, don't be afraid. Take good care of your aunt, I'll be right there with my friend!"

After hanging up the phone, Liang Wenxuan rubbed his face and looked at Chen Bozheng and his group. "Brothers, do me a favor. That bastard beat up my sister. I need you guys to take me home!"

When they heard that women were being hit, Hua Lingfeng and the others turned pale.

Wang Jianquan made a firm decision: "Let's go! Damn it, what kind of man hits a woman!"

Liang Wenxuan's god-sister, Sun Yue, and her husband live quite far from here, in the northernmost part of Xicheng District, a half-hour drive away.

When they arrived, before Chen Bozheng could even ask Liang Wenxuan which floor it was, Liang Wenxuan opened the car door and drove straight up to the third floor of the soda factory's office building.

This place is a housing unit allocated by the work unit.

Hu Cheng's parents live with Hu Cheng and his wife, and in recent years, Sun Yue's mother has also joined them.

As soon as Liang Wenxuan reached the third floor, he saw clothes, blankets and other items thrown out in the hallway. Neighbors were watching the commotion from their doors. Just as Liang Wenxuan pushed his way through the crowd to get inside, Sun Yue and her mother were pushed out of the house.

"Get out, all of you get out!" Hu Cheng's voice was extremely loud. "You shameless bastard, what's wrong with my parents saying a few words to your mother? You eat and drink for free every day at home, and you even drag your mother into it. Our Hu family is really unlucky to have a daughter-in-law like you."

"Fuck you, Hu Cheng, who are you talking about?"

Liang Wenxuan rushed over and kicked Hu Cheng in the stomach.

Hu Cheng stumbled back a few steps and fell to the ground with a thud, clearly not expecting Liang Wenxuan to arrive so quickly.

Liang Wenxuan's kick stunned everyone around him, and they hurriedly made way for him, fearing they might be caught in the crossfire.

Liang Wenxuan had been drinking, and this incident only fueled his anger. He wasn't satisfied with just kicking Hu Cheng once; he wanted to go inside and fight him.

Sun Yue quickly grabbed his hand, "Brother, stop hitting him, stop hitting him, don't let it turn into a fight and cause trouble."

"Fine," Liang Wenxuan was helped up by his parents, his face flushed red. He clutched his stomach and pointed at Liang Wenxuan and Sun Yue with one finger. "You two, you two, Sun Yue, don't think I don't know. You two have been cheating on me for a long time. I'm telling you right now, since everyone's here, we're done for. Tomorrow we'll get our divorce papers!"

"divorce?!"

The surrounding crowd couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

The soft drink factory has never had a divorce in all these years.

Some of the older women were on good terms with Sun Yue and knew that she was a good person, so they quickly advised, "Xiao Hu, you can't say anything out of line. Couples always make up after a fight. Sun Yue has been married into your Hu family for so many years and she has never mistreated you. Over the years, whenever your parents have been unwell, she has always been there to take care of them at the hospital."

"That's right. Look how good Sun Yue is to your family. All three of you want to eat, drink, and look good. For the past ten years or so, she has only been busy taking care of you and has never taken care of herself. She has never bought many bright clothes."

Even the old men couldn't stand it.

Hu's parents looked embarrassed.

Mother Hu said through gritted teeth, "So what if she's capable? Why don't you say that she's been married into our family for so many years and hasn't given birth to a single child? My Hu family can't be left without descendants because of her!"

"You can't treat people like this! Xiao Sun still has her mother to take care of. If you kick her out like this, what are Xiao Sun and her mother supposed to do!"

An older woman standing nearby couldn't stand it any longer.

Hu's father shamelessly said, "Sister Zhang, if you're so kind, why don't you make arrangements for them? Anyway, my family is determined to get a divorce, so that's settled!"

Mr. Hu slammed the door shut and locked it with his hand.

With a crisp click, the curtains inside the room were pulled up with a whoosh.

Everyone stared in disbelief, dumbfounded.

Chen Bozheng and the other two were completely dumbfounded.

Seeing that Liang Wenxuan was furious and about to kick the door, Chen Bo quickly went over to stop him and whispered to Liang Wenxuan, "Mr. Liang, forget it, let's leave quickly. The most important thing right now is to settle your sister and her mother down first, and then find out what happened."

Reminded by this, Liang Wenxuan turned his head and saw Sun Yue, who looked ashen-faced, and Sun's mother, who was picking up things with her head down. He twitched his lips, clenched his fist, and bent down to help pick up the things.

There weren't many items thrown out, but most of them were old and worn-out women's clothing.

Liang Wenxuan had no choice but to ask Chen Bozheng and the others to help drive him home.

His own home wasn't far from here; it was a small, detached house. After the door opened, a chubby-faced boy poked his head out. When he saw Liang Wenxuan, his eyes lit up, and he called out, "Dad!"

Liang Wenxuan hugged his son who rushed towards him and kissed him on the head. "Still up so late? You were secretly watching TV again, weren't you?"

"Dad, you smell terrible! Oh, what are Aunt Sun and Grandma Liu doing here?"

The little boy giggled a few times, dodged his father's kiss, turned his head to the side, and saw a group of people behind Liang Wenxuan. He was stunned for a moment.

Liang Wenxuan patted the little boy's bottom and said, "Don't ask so many questions. Go back to your room. Your Aunt Sun and Grandma Liu are coming to stay with us for a few days."

The little boy was quite well-behaved; he said "oh" and ran into the house, looking back every few steps.

Liang Wenxuan first took Sun Yue and her daughter to the guest room to settle in. Before leaving, he looked at Sun Yue and said, "Sister, I think you should come over here. You need to tell us what happened so we can help you figure out a solution. President Wang and his group are alright; maybe they have some connections that can help us."

Sun Yue packed her things mechanically with a blank expression, not wanting to go.

Her mother nudged her, went to the bathroom, wrung out a towel, wiped her face, and said with a sneer, "Why don't you go? What's the use of being sad now? They've already been so heartless. Do you still want to be a workhorse?"

Sun Yue's cheeks flushed a sickly red. She gritted her teeth and looked at her mother with anger and grievance in her eyes.

Sun Ma said, "You don't need to look at me like that. I can say that I didn't say a word or interfere in anything tonight."

Over in the living room.

Chen Bozheng and the other two felt that tonight was a bit surreal.

Liang Wenxuan was very good at handling people, letting them take any drinks from the refrigerator. Hua Lingfeng didn't stand on ceremony and gave everyone a bottle of Coke.

Wang Quanjian heard a few words faintly coming from the guest room, so he raised his hand and nudged Hua Lingfeng's shoulder, "Xiao Hua, do you think they will get a divorce?"

Hua Lingfeng sipped his cola and glanced speechlessly at his brother-in-law.

Wang Jianquan said, "Why are you looking at me?"

Chen Bo was suppressing a laugh.

He turned his head and saw Liang Wenxuan bringing Sun Yue over, so he put down the bottle, coughed, and reminded Wang Jianquan and Hua Lingfeng.

"Brother Wang, guys, I'm really sorry for causing you all trouble tonight."

Liang Wenxuan was genuinely a little embarrassed.

Wang Quan said, "President Liang, why are you saying such strange things? Is your sister alright?"

Liang Wenxuan looked at Sun Yue, who lowered her head and shook it, her hands clasped together, her face pale.

Liang Wenxuan asked Sun Yue, "What happened when you went back with Hu Cheng tonight? How did things suddenly turn out like this?"

Sun Yue smiled bitterly: "I was confused too. I was afraid he would argue with you, so I took him home on the motorcycle. My mother had already prepared dinner, but for some reason he started finding fault with this and that. I couldn't help but say something back, and he got angry and threw all of our things outside."

"That's it?" Liang Wenxuan asked in surprise.

Is this trivial matter really worth getting a divorce over?!

Sun Yue said, "Brother, don't you know me? I'm in their family, would I dare to go against those people surnamed Hu?"

As Sun Yue finished speaking, she raised her hand to wipe away her tears.

It's a bit awkward being surrounded by men.

Liang Wenxuan hurriedly pulled out a handkerchief from his pocket. "Girl, I didn't say anything to you. Hurry up and wipe yourself. There are so many people here. People will laugh at us."

Wang Jianquan and the others gave an awkward smile.

Liang Wenxuan looked at Wang Jianquan: "Brother Wang, we're friends now, so I'm going to ask you for a favor, even if it's a bit shameless."

"President Liang, please just tell me what you need." Wang Jianquan said straightforwardly, "I will definitely help if I can."

"That's right. Didn't you say before that you had a comrade who became a private investigator after retiring from the army? I suspect that bastard Hu Cheng is up to no good outside and is keeping a mistress."

Liang Wenxuan said.

"What?" Sun Yue suddenly looked up, her eyes swollen like peaches: "Hu Cheng is keeping a mistress?!"

Liang Wenxuan lit a cigarette, his brows furrowed. "I felt something was off about that kid before. I couldn't reach him on the phone all the time, and now he's causing this mess. I don't believe he doesn't have some ulterior motive. First he wanted to break up with me, and now he wants a divorce from you. He probably has some mistress outside, so he's using this as an excuse to divorce you tonight!"

After Liang Wenxuan's explanation, Sun Yue suddenly realized that all of Hu Cheng's unusual behavior that night seemed to have a reason.

Wang Jianquan said, "No doubt about it, I will definitely help. I hate those scumbags who mess around and betray their families the most."

"Brother Wang, I won't thank you." Liang Wenxuan handed Wang Jianquan a cigarette. "I agreed to your plan to bid together. I have a few houses on hand. If we mortgage them, we can get 300,000 yuan. Together, we'll have 1.5 million yuan, which should be enough."
