I Have 10 Trillion Dollars only Usable For Simping Chapter 2545 - 1599: A Man Who Defies Fate

Although this couple is selfish and self-interested, as a family, they are truly devoted to each other.

In this respect, they are better than many couples today.

Most women in this situation would probably first think of dividing up the family assets and going their separate ways.

Mai Encui’s steadfastness towards Zhang Zhongquan softened the impact of their previous actions, evoking feelings of sympathy from onlookers.

Fang Qing helped her to sit down, and Pan Hui even brought her a wet towel.

It wasn’t an act.

She knelt with real force.

Her forehead was red, and if Fang Qing hadn’t stopped her in time, she might have bled.

"Things haven’t escalated to life-or-death yet, wipe your face."

As the oldest person present, and also a man, Fang Weiguo spoke with authority, then proceeded to simply explain the situation to Jiang Chen.

"Zhang Zhongquan was framed and arrested for extortion."

Jiang Chen nodded, "Fang Qing mentioned it to me."

Seeing that his daughter had already informed him, Fang Weiguo fell silent.

He brought Mai Encui back out of sympathy, out of compassion, out of human kindness, but whether Jiang Chen wanted to intervene or not, he wouldn’t meddle.

"Zhang Zhongquan brought it on himself, but Green Land is too vicious."

Jiang Huazi said, "A dozen years in prison is meant to ruin someone, to destroy their family."

Zhang Zhongquan is in his forties.

Fang Qing, as a professional, had already enlightened them earlier.

If he really goes in under charges of "especially huge amounts," it’s essentially the end, and even if he can withstand the immense physical and psychological pressure of prison, the family would still fall apart.

Mai Encui’s current desperate pleas, kneeling and kowtowing, do not mean she would wait for him for so many years.

Human nature is narrow.

Would a regular woman, dragging a child, have the perseverance to endure and wait?

Unrealistic.

Separation of the family is the inevitable outcome,

Jiang Chen’s expression was as calm as a lake, giving no indication of his thoughts.

Indeed.

If kneeling and kowtowing could right all wrongs, would there still be injustice in the world?

"Alright, stop crying, Jiang Chen is back now. Let’s speak and discuss properly."

Pan Hui spoke with emphasis, "Even if Jiang Chen can’t help, he can at least give you some advice."

Mai Encui, after wiping her face, clutched the towel and stopped sobbing; she could hear Pan Hui’s wavering stance.

But who could be blamed?

If the same thing happened to the Hong Family, the Fang Family wouldn’t have this attitude.

The bitter fruit sown by one’s own hand must naturally be borne by oneself.

"He also has high blood pressure, which flared up once during Tie Jun’s wedding. Now that he’s been arrested, I’m really worried he won’t be able to control his emotions and something might happen."

"You don’t need to worry about that; if his health takes a turn, the police will definitely take him to see a doctor. If anything happens to him inside, the police department would be responsible."

"..."

"..."

"..."

Is this comfort?

Why does it sound more like sarcasm?

"It would be better if you didn’t say anything."

"Sister Pan, Fang Ge is right; if he was framed, it’s something we brought upon ourselves. Why weren’t others arrested?"

Mai Encui’s smile was more painful than crying, the makeup she had carefully prepared for viewing the house was completely ruined.

The gist of the entire situation was clear to everyone; it wasn’t about blaming the victim, but it takes two to tango. The malice of others can’t sting without a crack to enter.

Ultimately, it was their own greed.

"What do you think?"

Fang Qing was the bravest, braver than any of the elders.

"If it really is a case of being framed, you can use legal means to protect your legitimate rights."

A textbook answer.

Even more proper than Fang Qing, the professional.

The elders let out a series of bitter smiles, unsurprised by the child’s attitude.

To err is human.

Why demand forgiveness?

During his own dark times, they turned a blind eye, now they face misfortune, and hope to reach out.

What kind of reasoning is this?

The old refrain goes on.

Helping is a gift, not helping is a duty.

The slightest kinship had long been ground down by them, thrown into the millstone by the Zhang Family, borne by an invisible donkey, worn down to dust by the whipping of time.

Having resorted to public kowtowing, how could Mai Encui care about a bit of indifference? She had prepared herself mentally before arriving, otherwise why would she have approached Jiang Huazi first.

"Jiang Chen, do you know why I came here? Because when your cousin was dragged away in front of me, he used all his strength to shout for me to come find you."

Truly a master of the service industry.

The expression was so vivid that one could almost imagine the scene of the police arrest, see Zhang Zhongquan’s helplessness, his pitifulness, and his despair.

"Why did Zhang Zhongquan ask you to find Jiang Chen?"

Pan Hui asked, puzzled.

"Probably because aside from Jiang Chen, no one else can help us."

Mai Encui’s guess wasn’t entirely wrong, but clearly not completely right.

Zhang Zhongquan was quick on his feet; upon hearing "extortion," he immediately realized it must have something to do with Jiang Chen. After all, that young master Zhou approached him because of Jiang Chen, which is why he shouted desperately as he was taken away.

But Mai Encui was unaware of these details.

Only Fang Qing, and Jiang Chen, who had just returned from the inspection team’s office, knew the whole story.

Without a doubt,

Zhang Zhongquan was caught in the crossfire.

The sneer Young Master Zhou Shaohua left behind as he departed last night still echoed in their ears.
