Mengtang couldn't drive, so she was worried about letting Wei Chuan drive alone for four hours. Two hours later, she persuaded Wei Chuan to go to the service area.
After parking the car, Wei Chuan tilted his head: "Aren't you anxious?"
Meng Tang shook her head, she had completely calmed down.
It's already eleven o'clock now. If we keep driving, we won't be able to get home until about two o'clock in the morning.
At this point, the mice are all asleep, and it is impossible to solve the problem directly when they get home, and they will wake up the old man.
Meng Tang turned his face and turned to Wei Chuan and said, "You can rest for a while. There is no need to rush. If you go back early, you will wake up Sister Fang and open the door."
Wei Chuan unbuckled her seat belt, lowered her seat to the lowest position, and then he also lowered himself and lay down.
There is no light in the car, and we can only rely on the lights on the roadside to give us what we have.
Their upper bodies were hidden in the darkness, and they looked at each other in silence for a long time.
Meng Tang seemed not to understand, and still asked: "I told you to break up, right?"
Wei Chuan felt a little uncomfortable breathing, he squeezed Meng Tang's hand and said, "We will not break up."
Meng Tang did not say anything, and luckily the light did not shine on her face, otherwise Wei Chuan would have seen the embarrassment on her face.
She clenched her fists and tried to break away from Wei Chuan's hand, but Wei Chuan held on tightly and wouldn't let go.
He frowned: "What are you going to do?"
Meng Tang said, "I'm going to rest for a while. It's a bit tiring to hold her like this, and I'm hanging."
Wei Chuan let go of his hand and looked at her quietly.
Meng Tang closed his eyes and whispered: "Get some sleep."
Wei Chuan couldn't sleep, so he took out his mobile phone and set the alarm clock, and closed his eyes along with Meng Tang.
She may be really tired.
It was already five o'clock in the morning when the alarm clock rang again, and both of them were woken up at the same time.
Wei Chuan turned off his cell phone, opened the car door, and said, "Go to the bathroom and wash your face. Have breakfast later and then drive on."
Mengtang nodded and got out of the car with him.
After coming out of the bathroom, Wei Chuan went to buy breakfast. He guessed that Meng Tang had no appetite, so he bought milk and eggs to satisfy his stomach.
After Meng Tang took it, the two of them leaned against the car and finished eating in silence.
Meng Tang took out his cell phone and looked at it. It was already half past five, and he arrived home around eight o'clock.
"Let's go." She pushed Wei Chuan.
Wei Chuan threw the garbage into the trash can, turned around and stepped into the driver's seat.
Driving for more than two hours, we finally arrived at the door of our house at 8:10.
Sister Fang was startled when she saw the two of them, and then silently let them in, with Meng Tang in front and Wei Chuan behind.
When he lost his body, Sister Fang grabbed Wei Chuan's arm.
Wei Chuan stopped and looked at her doubtfully: "What's wrong?"
"I didn't believe it when the old man told me yesterday. Did those debt collectors really find their way to your door?"
Wei Chuan nodded.
"Sin." Sister Fang sighed, "Isn't this harmful to Xiaotang?"
"It's okay." Wei Chuan comforted her, "I came back with Meng Tang to solve the problem. Where are the others?"
Uncle didn't want to call him anymore, so Wei Chuan changed his name to Meng Tang.
"I'm sleeping in the house."
Wei Chuan: "..."
How can I sleep?
Meng Yuchun was not surprised to see Meng Tang. He asked her to sit down in the courtyard and asked, "Have you had breakfast?"
Meng Tang said, "Eat." 1 million? "
Meng Yuchun nodded: "The interest later is compounded by usury, and the money is being robbed."
Wei Chuan frowned: "You don't need to pay back these, right? Just collect evidence, counterclaim for fraud, and apply for a debt that is invalid."
Meng Yuchun said: "Everyone knows this is a road, but no one can walk to the end. Meng Huaizhang is stupid. He has been tricked. I suspect it started when Lao Liao was a child."
"What did Lao Liao say?" Wei Chuan asked impatiently.
Meng Yuchun said: "Lao Liao refused to admit it. He said that he also lost money. He only lost tens of thousands because he drank that night and fell asleep and stopped gambling."
Meng Tang asked: "Why did he gamble?" , "I dare not tell me that I was upset when I was drinking with Lao Liao. While drinking, something happened and I ran to the card table."
Meng Tang sneered: "I don't believe Lao Liao doesn't know, what are you pretending to be? Who can bring others wealth? Only Meng Huaizhang believes it."
Wei Chuan glanced sideways, seeing such a cold Meng Tang for the first time.
"It's useless for you to be angry now." Meng Yuchun himself was also angry, "I asked Lao Liao a long time ago, but he doesn't admit it, what can you do? Moreover, Meng Huaizhang also signed an IOU and repaid the debt, which is a matter of course. Who asked him to gamble?"
Meng Tang clenched his fists, is there really nothing he can do?
"These games are all aimed at the family's wealth." Wei Chuan said to Meng Yuchun, "Old Liao is among them. He is at best a middleman, but who is behind it? To be honest, your family's wealth is not worth being treated, so I think this matter is a bit strange."< br/>
Meng Yuchun nodded: "It's true. Meng Tang and I were old and young, and we were afraid that others would care about us. We didn't take any big jobs in the early years. In the eyes of others, Meng Tang and I were pitiful. It wasn't until she entered high school that I took on big jobs, but I never revealed my family background."
Meng Tang said: "Is it possible that he leaked it? After drinking two glasses of wine with others, you can't say anything."
Meng Yuchun said: "He probably doesn't know. I asked tentatively a few times before, but I didn't tell him. His own salary is enough to support himself, so how could he know that he is so useless."
Wei Chuan didn't even notice the old man's expression. To the point of despair, he asked: "Do you have any ideas?"
"What do I have in mind." Meng Yuchun spread his hands, "Yesterday I sent out three wood carvings, and I found some connections to see if I can check it out, as you said, and apply for a debt that is invalid. I'm still waiting for news."
Wei Chuan nodded.
The old man is an authoritative representative in the woodcarving world. He has been in Yueqing for so many years and will definitely not be without connections.
It’s just that gambling is different from ordinary cases.
It is organized and premeditated, the cost of investigation is too high, and the people involved are also relatively complex.
As for the people who come to the Wei family to collect debts, they are not part of the gambling game, they are just debt collectors.
In a society governed by the rule of law, they cannot act recklessly, but they cannot stand being politely collecting debts in front of you all day long.
In case it was exposed again and affected the company's image and stock price, this was the reason why Wei Lifeng asked Wei Chuan to break up.
He himself had no objections to Meng Tang. Furthermore, Wei Lifeng had to take Chu Yin's physical condition into consideration, so he stood on the same line as Chu Yin.
Meng Tang was silent for a moment and asked: "Is Lao Liao's mahjong parlor still open? Has he paid back the money he and Meng Huaizhang lost together?"
"I paid it back." Meng Yuchun said, "His wife paid it back. She has been staying at home during this period and was beaten by his wife."
"But I have a question." Meng Tang said.
Wei Chuan and Meng Yuchun both looked at her: "What's the question?"
Meng Tang said to Wei Chuan: "Didn't you just say that? The plan is to find out the family background. In this case, why didn't the debt collector come to ask for it from grandpa, but to your house instead?"
Wei Chuan and Meng Yuchun looked at each other and realized that Meng Tang had gotten to the point of his question.
Meng Yuchun frowned and thought for a long time but had no idea.
Is it to get more money? But that’s not right either.
These arrangements will be stuck at a point where you can afford it, so that your family will not be destroyed, and you will not have to drag them to death together.
Wei Chuan pointed at himself: "Since you went to my house, did you come for me?"
"Why did you go for you?" Meng Tang also couldn't figure it out. Since he knew that her family could afford compensation, shouldn't he collect the debt and leave? Why go to Z city for no reason?
The three fell silent.
"Maybe it's for you two?" Sister Fang said quietly from the side.
Meng Tang was stunned and turned his face away: "Why do you say that?"
"I also guessed." Sister Fang said, "He is in debt and dare not go home and tell the old man. Others can only threaten him. Don't they all say this on TV? Listen to me. If you don't pay back the money, I will destroy your daughter, son-in-law, father, everything." Didn't you find it pointless to ask Wei Chuan to break up with me after discovering the true identity of my family? Why don't you just kidnap me and threaten Meng Huaizhang?"
Sister Fang spread her hands: "Then I don't know."
Wei Chuan lowered his eyes and thought about Sister Fang's words. When he had no clue, Meng Huaizhang came out of the room.
When he saw Meng Tang, he was obviously startled for a moment, and then smiled cautiously at her.
Meng Tang sat motionless on the chair, stared at him for several seconds, and suddenly said: "You really suck!"
Meng Yuchun was stunned for a moment, and after a moment of surprise, he said nothing.
Meng Huaizhang was simply ashamed.
Wei Chuan took Meng Tang's hand and patted it comfortingly.
Waiting for Meng Huaizhang to leave, Wei Chuan said, "Should we call the police now?"
Meng Yuchun said, "We'll wait for my news. The main reason is that he has no evidence, so calling the police is useless."
The cell phone rang. Wei Chuan looked down and was stunned. It was his father's assistant.
Wei Chuan subconsciously glanced at Meng Tang, walked aside and answered the phone.
The assistant said: "Mr. Wei asked me to go over and help handle this matter."
Wei Chuan was delighted: "My dad called you?"
The assistant responded: "I will go there this afternoon and will bring my lawyer with me. Then I will meet with Bureau Liu of the Public Security Bureau first."
"Okay." Wei Chuan breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I will wait for you in Yanqing. Do you know the address?"
"I know, I checked before."
Wei Chuan hung up the phone. He turned to Meng Tang and said, "My dad's assistant called and said he would bring a lawyer over in the afternoon. He also said -"
"It's not good!"
Wei Chuan's words were interrupted by an impatient teenage voice outside the gate.
"Grandpa Meng, what's wrong, Uncle Zhang went to find Uncle Liao, and they started fighting over a disagreement."
“Uncle Zhang is hanging on the air conditioner outside the window of the mahjong parlor, making noises about jumping off the building.” When Meng Tang heard this, he ran out.
"Sister Fang, please take care of grandpa and ask him to walk slowly. I'll go over and take a look first."
Wei Chuan said a word and ran away with Meng Tang.
