Live-in Son-in-law
Chapter 99 Please Be Human

"You’re using money to keep a mistress, I’ll never let you off, I’m going to sue you, I’m going to make you go to jail."

Dong Jinsu cried and screamed, even kicking off her shoes.

Xia Yujiang roared, "Those were my stocks, left to me by my father, I can deal with them however I want, it’s none of your business."

"You shameless old man, are you even human? Fine, even if the shares are yours, what about the two hundred and ten million from the company, that’s the company’s money."

"Gone, all gone, I’ve spent it all, what are you going to do about it?"

Xia Yujiang shouted, completely exposing his most shameless side.

Shen Zhengwen glanced at Qin Yi, with a detached tone, "You two, there’s no need to argue; I’ll call the police now. The two hundred and ten million might have been spent by Mr. Xia alone, but you are a couple, you’re both responsible."

"I think, if you go to jail, this amount is enough for both of you to be locked up for life."

Xia Yujiang and Dong Jinsu’s faces turned deathly pale.

"Mr. Shen, please, don’t call the police, I beg you!" Xia Yujiang trembled all over, he didn’t want to go to jail.

"Not calling the police is also an option, then Mr. Xia, please return the two hundred and ten million entirely." Shen Zhengwen said indifferently.

Xia Yujiang was dazed, he didn’t even have two hundred and ten yuan on him now, let alone two hundred and ten million.

"It seems like Mr. Xia can’t repay the money, so I have no choice but to call the police." Shen Zhengwen took out his phone.

"Mr. Shen, please, don’t call the police, please, let’s talk about this." Xia Yujiang shouted desperately.

"Yes, yes, please don’t call the police, I don’t want to go to jail, Bingbing, hurry and beg Mr. Shen, quick!" Dong Jinsu was so scared, her old face shook violently.

Xia Yanbing clenched her fists tight, unable to cry, feeling utterly disappointed in the Xia family members.

"If I have to go to jail, there’s no way out for me either, let’s all go to jail as a family." Xia Yanbing’s beautiful face turned pale.

Lin Hongzhuang hugged Xia Yanbing with heartache, "Bingbing, don’t worry, I’ll go home and beg my dad, we’ll find a way to pay back the money together."

Xia Yanbing gently shook her head, "Two hundred and ten million, your family isn’t a bank, how could you come up with that much money all at once."

Shen Zhengwen sneered, "Looks like you can’t come up with the money, so we’ll have to go by the book."

"Mr. Shen, please, don’t call the police, I beg you..."

"Take your hand off me." Shen Zhengwen looked at Xia Yujiang coldly.

Xia Yujiang quickly withdrew his hand, "Mr. Shen, I’ll find a way to repay the money, please don’t call the police."

Shen Zhengwen sneered, "Actually, I don’t want to call the police either, but since you can’t come up with the money, I’m in a tough spot too."

"How about this, I’ll suggest a compromise for you."

Xia Yujiang and Dong Jinsu nodded eagerly, faces full of hope.

"Convert all your assets, including this house, into money, pay back as much as you can. For the remaining amount, Mr. Xia must give me an IOU, then you can repay it slowly."

Dong Jinsu screamed, "Where will we live then?"

"That’s not my concern. If you don’t agree to this plan, you’ll have to go to jail instead—don’t you get a place to live in jail?"

"I agree, let’s do as Mr. Shen says." Xia Yujiang hurriedly said.

"Alright, I’ll have someone come to appraise how much your junk is worth later." Shen Zhengwen said indifferently.

Then, Shen Zhengwen looked at Xia Yanbing, "President Xia, you must continue to serve as the general manager of Xia Group."

Xia Yanbing was taken aback, looking at Shen Zhengwen in shock.

"Don’t look at me like that, I’m a businessman. If President Xia doesn’t work, how will you repay the money?" Shen Zhengwen smiled.

Xia Yanbing was a bit dazed, not expecting Shen Zhengwen to ask her to take on the position of general manager at this time.

"Xiaobing, quickly agree to Mr. Shen, hurry!" Dong Jinsu urged anxiously.

"Xiaobing, do you want to watch your parents go to jail?"

Xia Yanbing looked at Dong Jinsu and Xia Yujiang in disappointment, smiling bitterly.

"Fine, I agree!"

Shen Zhengwen smiled, "Good, then it’s settled. Of course, out of respect for President Xia, you can continue living in this villa, but you’ll have to pay rent."

"Alright, now you can write the IOU. Just write two hundred million. I estimate this villa plus your other junk won’t exceed ten million."

Xia Yanbing exhaled deeply, "Fine, I’ll write it!"

"No, President Xia, don’t misunderstand. Mr. Xia must write this IOU, as he made the mistake, the IOU naturally should be his."

"Xiaobing is my daughter, it’s only right she pays on my behalf, who writes..."

"If you question my decision again, there’s nothing more to discuss between us. Mr. Xia, let me give you a word of advice—if you can’t be a good father, at least be a man." Shen Zhengwen said coldly.

Xia Yujiang shivered with fear, "Alright, I’ll write, I’ll write..."

Quickly, the IOU was written, Xia Yujiang pressed his fingerprint on it, and handed it to Shen Zhengwen.

Shen Zhengwen glanced at it, saying indifferently, "Alright, that’s it for now, farewell!"

After Shen Zhengwen left, Xia Yanbing couldn’t hold it together any longer, her body swayed and she collapsed onto the sofa, her pretty face pale, making people’s hearts ache.

"Bingbing, are you alright?"

Xia Yanbing hugged Lin Hongzhuang tightly, bursting into tears.

Xia Yanbing, with a cold exterior and warm heart, always positive and optimistic, being pushed to cry on the spot shows she’s been wronged to the extreme.

Qin Yi sighed, realizing that no matter how strong she was, she was still a woman; then he lowered his head and sent out a message.

Xia Yujiang sat slumped on the sofa in a dejected state.

Dong Jinsu glared at Xia Yujiang, eyes filled with malice, savagely gritting her teeth.

"President Xia."

Xia Yanbing looked back, only to see Shen Zhengwen had returned, hastily wiping her tears.

Dong Jinsu and Xia Yujiang’s faces turned ashen; was Shen Zhengwen coming back to...?

"President Xia, could we talk in private?" Shen Zhengwen said.

Xia Yanbing was slightly stunned, then nodded.

The two went outside.

"Mr. Shen, what do you need from me?"

Shen Zhengwen handed over the IOU Xia Yujiang had just written.

"What’s this?" Xia Yanbing looked at Shen Zhengwen in shock.

"Take it, you can keep it or tear it up."

Xia Yanbing didn’t accept it, her face full of shock—it was twenty million.

"Why?"

Shen Zhengwen smiled, "I’m just acting on orders!"

Xia Yanbing suddenly widened her eyes, yet was it the mysterious benefactor secretly protecting her again?

"Mr. Shen, please tell me, who is he really?" Xia Yanbing asked hopefully. Why does that person always appear when she’s helpless? Why does he help her time and again?

Shen Zhengwen said, "President Xia, don’t make things difficult for me. If I tell, I’m afraid I won’t keep my life."

Xia Yanbing was more shocked than ever—how powerful could this person be to instill such fear in Shen Zhengwen?
