“Those beasts, they are not human beings. Why can’t they come to us adults when they have something to do? Why do they have to bully a child like you?”
Jiang Mi held her son’s arms tightly and then looked him up and down, wanting to know where he was injured.
“Mom, I’m really fine. Let’s go home first. If you have anything to say, we can talk about it when we get home.”
Sheng Chenglin took a deep breath.
At this time, he had prepared himself mentally, but it was obvious that the elevator entrance was not a place suitable for talking about private matters.
There might be residents of the building passing by at any time, so Sheng Chenglin wanted to comfort his mother first and then ask her seriously what troubles the family had encountered recently after returning home.
The son who was beaten up by the loan shark stood in front of her intact. There were no obvious scars on his face, and he still spoke reasonably. Jiang Mi’s heart, which had been lifted high, finally let go a little.
With the comfort of his son, she got on the elevator and prepared to go home and tell him everything about the changes in their family.
After all, the loan shark had already attacked her son. No matter what, she had to tell his son about it so that he would be on guard in the future.
“So, Dad is not on a business trip but hiding?”
After returning home, he heard his mother choking up as she spoke about the recent changes at home.
Even a calm person like Sheng Chenglin felt a little confused for a moment.
It is true that he is a top student, but it does not mean that he has a strong ability to deal with things and crises at the age of 18.
In the past, his parents’ requirements for him were to study hard, get into the best school in China in the future, and then go abroad for further studies to become an outstanding talent in society in the future.
Sheng Chenglin’s life has always focused on studying, and his only hobby is programming games related to studying.
As for the figure of more than 9 million, even Sheng Chenglin, who had no concept of money, understood that it was a huge sum that their family could not afford, not to mention that the interest of more than 9 million continued to derive.
If it was delayed any longer, it would probably become an astronomical figure.
Therefore, for the Sheng family, the best way to deal with it was to sell the property as soon as possible, at least to reduce the damage to the minimum level.
“Did Dad… escape by himself…”
Sheng Chenglin was a little unconvinced.
In the past, his father always behaved so kindly and gently. In the Sheng family, Jiang Mi and her husband had always been a kind father and a strict mother.
Jiang Mi was a teacher and was particularly strict in educating Sheng Chenglin. On the contrary, Sheng Yuan, the father, would take Sheng Chenglin to the zoo and amusement park after his busy work and would talk to him all night long when he had a rebellious mentality during adolescence.
Sheng Chenglin couldn’t accept that after his father had caused such a big disaster, he hid alone and left the trouble to himself and his mother.
“Chenglin, this is an adult matter. It has nothing to do with you. Your most important task now is to study hard. Don’t let what happened at home affect your studies. Mom will handle these things.”
If the loan shark hadn’t attacked her son, Jiang Mi really didn’t want her son to be involved in this matter.
Because in a mother’s eyes, this teenager who was already a head taller than her was still a child. As a mother, she always wanted to protect her child from the storm.
“But your father’s behavior really broke my heart. After this matter is handled, I may divorce your father.”
Jiang Mi has been under tremendous pressure these days, especially when these blows came without any emotional preparation in advance. The collapse was sudden, and the burden in her heart and the hatred for her husband naturally became even deeper.
If Sheng Yuan had been able to sit down and talk to her properly when the problem occurred, there might have been a chance to save the marriage.
However, after Sheng Yuan ran away and left the mess to her and their son, the relationship between the couple of more than 20 years had come to an end.
To put it bluntly, the trouble was caused by Sheng Yuan.
Before the debt crisis broke out, Jiang Mi had no idea that Sheng Yuan was obsessed with stock speculation and had emptied out all the family savings. He owed so much debt on his own, which should not be considered a joint debt of the couple.
