The baby was born and she cried, the rich husband comforted his wife and held the baby every day

Even though he had lived there for several days, Li Zeshan still couldn't get used to it.

He couldn't help but complain, "My room is so small! How can it compare to the villa I used to live in? My room used to be much bigger than this whole house!"

Chen Yuwei, her face wrinkled as she sat on a small stool picking vegetables, quickly said, "Don't say that in front of your dad."

The family used to have a nanny, and she hadn't done these jobs for a long time, so naturally she had many complaints in her heart.

"Our family was once so wealthy, how come we became so poor in just a few days?" Li Zeshan couldn't understand it.

"It's all your dad's fault. He was so ambitious that he signed a contract worth tens of millions, but ended up losing three times as much, completely destroying our entire fortune..."

It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. This principle is vividly reflected in their family.

"Mom, is it true that we have no money at all?"

"I only have tens of thousands of yuan in my hand. I do have a house in my hometown, but it's not worth much. Son, you have to work hard and make mom proud..." Chen Yuwei said, tears falling.

Li Zeshan held her hand tightly and comforted her, "Mom, Dad has been busy outside lately. He is also trying hard to find a solution. Our family will definitely not reach the point of desperation."

Chen Yuwei wiped her tears, looked at him and said, "Why don't you look for Yanyan? Ask her for some money to pay for your college tuition."

"Something happened at home recently. I kept calling her but she didn't answer. She ignored my messages. It's all Dad's fault. If he hadn't treated me so badly, how could we be in this situation? How can I even ask her for college tuition?"

"After all, you are her biological brother. What's the harm in asking her for tens of thousands of yuan for tuition? Yanyan is soft-hearted. Just say a few nice words to her. She really liked you when you were a child."

Li Zeshan returned to his room and frowned as he looked at the small bedroom. His bathroom used to be bigger than this bedroom.

He picked up the phone, stared at Li Yanyan's number, hesitated again and again, and finally dialed the number...

At this time, Li Yanyan was sitting comfortably on the balcony of the villa, leaning on a chair and leisurely eating sour plums.

Jiang Qing, who was standing beside him, wrinkled her face and asked, "Is it sour?"

"It's not sour and tastes great. Qingqing, you can have one too." Li Yanyan smiled and put a big plum in her hand.

Seeing Yanyan eating with gusto, Jiang Qing took a bite. In an instant, the sour taste spread in his mouth.

"It's not sour, it's so sour to me... Yanyan, your taste is really special." Jiang Qing touched her chin with both hands.

The phone suddenly rang. Li Yanyan glanced at the caller ID and the smile on her face disappeared instantly.

Jiang Qing turned around and took a look, then curled his lips and asked, "Your brother called again?"

"Yeah." Her good mood disappeared instantly.

Li Zeshan has been calling her a lot recently, but of course she doesn't answer.

He sent her another text message, saying that his family had gone bankrupt and the villa had been sold, but she just took a look at it.

Nothing that happens in the Li family is her business.

"I heard from my dad that your father's factory went bankrupt." Jiang Qing said in a low voice.

Although she knew Yanyan didn't care about the Li family, she was a member of the Li family after all, so she was still worried that Yanyan would be affected.

"Yes, Li Zeshan told me that in a message."

"Why did it suddenly go bankrupt?" Jiang Qing was a little confused.

"Who knows?" Li Yanyan raised her eyebrows.

"I heard your dad sold all his houses and stocks and is now renting a house."

"Yeah, but it's none of my business."

"Yes, you didn't live in the villa when they lived there, and they didn't give you a penny when they made money from the factory. It's all their own fault until now." Jiang Qing stood up for her.

The phone continued to ring.

"Yan Yan, since you don't answer his call, why don't you block him?" Jiang Qing asked.

"I've blocked my dad and stepmother's phone numbers. I only have his number. I want my dad to sign a severance agreement someday, but how can I get that across if I've blocked him?"

"That's right."

The phone rang again. Li Yanyan hesitated for a moment, but still picked up the call.

"Sister, it's me. You finally answered the phone." Li Zeshan's cautious voice came from the other end of the phone.

Li Yanyan was silent for a while, then said coldly, "What do you want from me?"

Li Zeshan took a deep breath and said, "Sister, our family is bankrupt and we have nothing now. Sister, I want to... I have to pay for college tuition soon. Can you lend me a few tens of thousands of yuan?"

Li Yanyan sneered a few times, "Have you forgotten that I earned my university tuition by working part-time? You should go work too. You have hands and feet, so why are you asking me for money?"

Li Zeshan hurriedly said, "Sister, Dad was wrong about what happened before, and I was also wrong. I didn't ask Dad for mercy on your behalf, but I was young and ignorant at that time."

"I was only 16 when I went to college. You're 18 now, and you say you're not sensible? I'm telling you, if you ask me for money, I won't give you a cent."

"Sister, I was really wrong. Now I can understand your predicament, but our family really needs money right now. I really don't have the money for my tuition... Sister, please lend me a few tens of thousands of yuan. When I graduate from college, I will definitely pay you back double, no, ten times."

"How about this, tell your dad when you're willing to sign the divorce papers with me. If he agrees, I'll pay you all your college tuition."

"Sister, there's no need for us to make such a fuss..."

"Tell your father that if you sign the divorce agreement, I'll give him 20 yuan. Otherwise, I won't answer your calls anymore and I'll block your number. Even if you don't sign the divorce agreement, so what? At most, when he's old, I'll give him three steamed buns a day. That's also a form of support."

Li Yanyan hung up the phone.

Li Zeshan looked at the hung up phone and sighed.

I opened the door and went out, and found that my father had come back. He was exhausted and sitting on the sofa with dull eyes.

Li Zeshan walked over and whispered, "I just spoke to my sister on the phone. She said that if you're willing to sign a divorce agreement, she'll give you 20 yuan and cover my tuition."

Li Jianhua sat up and shouted angrily, "20? You're sending away a beggar? I gave birth to her and raised her. Why should I buy her out for 20? I won't let her go. Don't worry about your tuition. I know the price."

Li Jianhua decided to go back to his hometown with Chen Yuwei and start over, while Li Zeshan stayed in Beijing alone, waiting for school to start.

Since they couldn't reach an agreement, Li Yanyan also blocked Li Zeshan.

In the evening, Gu Yuanzhou took her to the basement to watch a movie in the cinema.

Her mind was not on the movie, but she turned to look at him from time to time.

Gu Yuanzhou hugged her and said, "Wife, do I look good? Why do you keep looking at me?"

Li Yanyan asked tentatively, "Did you cause my dad's bankruptcy?"

"Why do you ask?" The man held her in his arms.

"I remember two weeks ago you said what would happen to me if my dad went bankrupt? How come my dad's family went bankrupt just after you said that? So I wondered if it was you..."

"If it were my wife, would you blame me?"

"I don't blame you. Whether his family goes bankrupt or not has nothing to do with me."

"I simply acquired his factory and the ownership of his trademark. He couldn't complete the overseas orders on time, so he was ordered to pay triple the liquidated damages, which led to his bankruptcy."

Li Yanyan nodded slightly, without any reaction.

"I heard that the Qin Group has also been acquired by you now?"

"Well, who made Qin Haoyu dare to set his sights on you, my wife?"

"So you bought them out and drove them out of the capital?"

Li Yanyan suddenly felt a chill down her spine. The man beside her could bankrupt Li Jianhua and bring the Qin family to an end in an instant with just one word...

Does he have too much power?

If one day, he no longer loves her, or despises her, will he also plot against her?

Thinking of this, she felt cold all over.
