Chapter 827: Humble to the Dust

    

r finishing the business, Junzhimu did not immediately hang up.Lu Qinan, as a younger brother who had been bullied and oppressed for many years, keenly sensed something was wrong. He curiously asked,..."How come you guys are fighting!"

Both the mother and her brother grew tense all at once.

"Why are you quarreling about things Fang Mei, aren't you usually the one who doesn't argue with people Why let men handle everything It's not easy for men to support a family."

The mother quickly came to her foreign son-in-law's defense.

"Sis, is it because you guys had a fight that he isn't giving you money anymore, so you have to live in this kind of place"

The younger brother began to worry about money.

"No, this is my own rental."

Fang Mei quickly chimed in to explain, "Henry also asked me to move to a smaller house, but I find it inconvenient to manage such a large place when I'm living alone."

As soon as she heard they hadn't fought, the mother was immediately relieved.

"That's right, a big house is really hard to manage," Mother immediately said, feeling it herself, "Your brother bought that new 200-square-meter apartment the other time. We saw the model room and it was so beautiful, but I bet it'll be tough to keep up."

Thinking about her future new home, a smile also appeared on the face of her brother's girlfriend.

That house's down payment was over 2 million, and before that, I was worried about being unable to afford it. Unexpectedly, this sister's foreign boyfriend is so capable; he just signed a check right away to pay for it.

The whole family regrets it now, they wish they had made Henry pay the full amount upfront.

"Sis, did you guys just happen to find a suitable house yet So you're staying here temporarily Now, good location and layout for new houses are really hard to find, eh."

The younger brother also had a look of understanding on his face about why he lived in this run-down house.

Fang Mei just smiled in response.

She originally wanted to ask, how many rooms were there in the new house she bought Could she reserve a small space for him It seemed she couldn't ask. Since when did things become like this Perhaps because she had been working abroad for too long, he was no longer part of her family's future plans.

Mother originally wanted to come over and cook a delicious meal for everyone, but now seeing that the rental apartment is so narrow and run-down, she's lost her appetite.

A few people were enjoying a pot of flower tea in the tiny living room, settling in for some casual conversation. Later, his brother planned to treat his sister to a fancy dinner out.

After his new house payment is so high, he will still have to rely on his sister and her foreign boyfriend.

"...Sister, I see that your brother-in-law's show is very popular now."

The younger brother's girlfriend sat closer to Fang Mei, wanting to get closer to him.

"Yes, my future son-in-law is truly remarkable." Mother said proudly.

Fang Mei still just smiled without saying anything.

A mother knows her daughter well. Her daughter is usually introverted and not very talkative, but she's never been this silent before.

As soon as I thought about my daughter possibly arguing with that rich foreign boyfriend, my heart started pounding.

It's hard to say, and there's a hint of anxious urging in her voice. "Fang Mei, when are you getting married to Henry"

When will you get married

This is a thorn in Fang Mei's heart.

As soon as she said that, her face turned pale.

"Mother continued to advise, "Fangmei, he's a big star now. Our ordinary family may not be worthy of him. But you two have been together for 7 years, even before he became famous. You can't just let other women snatch Henry away!"

"Yeah, sis, he's famous and rich now. You need to hurry up and get him to marry you. Getting married will give you peace of mind."

Now the younger brother was worried, "When I bought a house before, he paid my down payment. At that time, I said, what if the mortgage is so high He promised me personally that he would help me."

If his wealthy brother-in-law runs away, how will he make his monthly mortgage payments then

Fang Mei suddenly came to life and lectured, "You guys have to pay for the house yourselves, don't depend on Henry. We can't spend his money."

Even though they had been together for so many years, Fang Mei tried her best to pay for her own living expenses. She felt that she was capable of supporting herself, so she didn't need to rely on others.

"It's not like that. This time, he volunteered and he's a star, making money is easy for him."

"Mother became unhappy immediately. “Fang Mei, you can’t be constantly worried about him spending money. When something goes wrong and you have an argument, in the end, you still have to rely on your family, or your brother.”

Fang Mei instantly realized that her whole family had been treating Henry like a sucker.

How could you do that

Isn't this just proof that those women before her said she was after his money

Her heart felt as if it had been pierced by something, the buried shame she had once held now crumbled into dust, leaving her wondering how she could ever face Henry again.

Seeing her dazed and dishevelled appearance, the whole family grew worried.

"People say there's a seven-year itch, you've been dating for seven years and still haven't gotten married, I knew something would be wrong!"

If the wealthy foreign son-in-law runs away, won't they suffer a huge loss

"No matter what, even if we break up, I'm going to ask him for 10 million in alimony!"

Fang Mei's younger brother, thinking of the monthly payments he would have to make alone in the future, immediately became furious and angrily said.

"Ten million, isn't that too much" Mother hesitated.

The younger brother's girlfriend also became indignant, “Mom, one million is too little for a top influencer like Henry. We should be asking for one hundred million.”

"A hundred million"

Mother had never seen so much money in her entire life, she couldn't even imagine it.

Can her daughter really get so much money just by breaking up with a man

The younger brother's girlfriend spoke eloquently, "After all, my sister dated him for 7 years and stayed with him for so long. Asking him for a hundred million is reasonable! In foreign countries, if a couple gets married and divorces, they can directly split his half of the property."

The younger brother slammed his fist on the table as if he'd just sealed a deal.

"Yes, that's right! We're going to ask him for one hundred million!"

Facing her family, Fang Mei was utterly dumbfounded. She quickly interjected, "What are you talking about"

"I dated Henry for 7 years, and I didn't lose out. We were very happy together all those years. Even if Henry and I break up in the future, you absolutely can't ask him for money!"

Fang Mei hated most that those women last night said she was dating Henry for money.

This is simply an insult to her.

Even though she may not be good enough for him now, he has never harbored ill intentions.

For free

When the younger brother heard this, his face immediately became somewhat ferocious.

The younger brother's girlfriend also became anxious, hurriedly pulling on the mother beside her. "Mom, you have to persuade sister, our family can't suffer such a loss! I even feel sorry for sister."

The younger brother, upon realizing all the money was gone, immediately became furious.

He angrily said, "Back then when he was still a poor young man, you were together. Why is it that now that he's successful and wealthy, you can't even split some money after breaking up This person is really heartless. If Henry doesn't handle this properly, we'll ruin his reputation!"

Fang Mei was surrounded by them and getting annoyed. "What are you guys thinking All day it's about money, money. Are we not going to make any"

Over the years, she has been working abroad and hasn't had a family reunion for a long time. She always yearns for a warm and cozy life with her whole family together. However, something seems to have changed, even she can't understand why her family has become so materialistic.them into words.Ding ding…Qiao Baoer didn't hear what he said after that.
