"My brother just returned from abroad and is preparing to take over the family business."
"As for Xiao Han—"
I paused for a moment, looking at him with a half-smile, "He owes me quite a bit of money and is about to have me chase him for it. He should be expecting my summons."
Xiao H An'an d his two companions were unceremoniously thrown out of the company by the security guards.
I had Liu Ling bring in the legal team to thoroughly investigate the company managed by Xiao Han. It was clear that Xiao Han lacked the ability to manage a company, and it didn't take long to uncover financial discrepancies and flaws in business contracts, along with the insurance policies he had signed previously.
Under pressure from the legal team and the debt collection agency, Xiao Han quickly crumbled.
He started calling me to apologize for past matters, sending me texts from different phones about previous issues.
I looked at those messages, feeling utterly indifferent, even wanting to laugh a little.
I kept blocking his phone numbers, and finally, I was fed up and answered his call: "Xiao Han, what do you want?"
Xiao Han's tone was somewhat smug: " An'an, you answered my call; I knew you still cared about me."
I rolled my eyes, "Get to the point; I don't have time for your nonsense."
Xiao Han quickly spoke up: "I'll find a way to pay you back. Can we go back to how things were before?"
Liu Ling, who was listening nearby, raised an eyebrow: "Sis, what kind of delusions is he having?"
I shrugged helplessly and shook my head.
Liu Ling curiously asked, "Sis, are you really planning to let him off if he pays you back?"
I looked at her calmly and said, "He owes more than just money; he owes me years of effort and time. Let him off? Ha, not completely getting rid of him is already showing my kindness."
To repay his debt, Xiao Han sold his parents' house in the city. His mother cried and cursed, but in the end, she was sent back to their hometown by Xiao Han.
Xu Ya never expected that her calculations would lead to such a result. Angered, she went to the hospital to terminate the pregnancy, but her body did not allow it; she had to terminate it to avoid a life-threatening situation. Standing in front of the mirror, Xu Ya touched her belly, feeling cold and anxious about the future.
From that day on, Xiao H An'an d Xu Ya began their petty arguments, with both of their tempers spiraling out of control. When Liu Ling went to the bank to handle Xiao Han's transfer procedures, she saw the two of them arguing fiercely on the steps.
Xiao Han suppressed his anger and tried to coax Xu Ya in a low voice, "Xiao Ya, can we talk about this at home?"
"You’re still carrying a child; let’s go home first."
Xu Ya coldly replied, "Xiao Han, how can you be so hypocritical? When you were pursuing me, you said all those things about luxury cars and villas, just to make me your rich wife."
"You promised I would have a good life with the child and attend an elite school."
"And now? What do we have? Besides this rented rundown room, what else is there?"
Xiao Han's face turned ugly. "Xiao Ya, difficulties are only temporary; things will get better after this period."
Xu Ya sneered, "Xiao Han, do you think I’m a fool? You can't even pay off your debts; all you do is talk big. The company belongs to someone else, and you have no ability at all. You're just a useless coward."
The more she spoke, the angrier she became, raising her hand as if to hit him.
Finally unable to endure any longer, Xiao Han slapped her across the face.
Xu Ya fell to the ground, covering her bleeding mouth in disbelief as she looked at Xiao Han. "I'm pregnant; how could you hit me?"
Xiao Han was filled with regret but was unwilling to lose face in public. "Xu Ya, enough already! Do you think you're some kind of good person? You just want to latch onto a wealthy man."
