Chapter 629: Listen to me
"Aci, you..."
Shen Ci said softly: "You're sick now, and the 'roast meat shop' is closed. You can't let your life be dragged down by this fruitless matter, right?"
"Sui Sui and Guangrong don't need me to worry for the time being, but you and Uncle must listen to me this time."
Although her tone was light, it contained an irresistible forcefulness.
Shen Yingying lowered her eyes and thought about it. In fact, she and He Bin were really at the end of their rope. Squabbling with the developer, the other party could drag you down just by stalling, consuming time and energy.
How could ordinary people have any methods? It was just a case of treating a dead horse as if it were a living one.
Now they couldn't even see the person, but even if they did, what could they do?
"Alright, Auntie will listen to you," Shen Yingying finally nodded, because she was indeed physically and mentally exhausted.
Early the next morning, Shen Ci woke up in He Sui's room. Although the room was small, it was kept very clean by her aunt. When Shen Ci was little, she often squeezed into this bed with her cousin, so she didn't feel uncomfortable and slept very well.
"You're up, Aci."
In the living room, buns and porridge were already prepared on the dining table. Shen Yingying greeted Shen Ci to sit down: "Auntie knows you love white-cut chicken, I'll go buy some for you at noon."
"Alright, Auntie loves me the most." Shen Ci hugged her aunt and found that there were only the two of them at home, so she couldn't help but ask: "Where are Guangrong and Uncle?"
"Guangrong went back to school, he has a physical test this morning. Your uncle went out and will be back later."
Shen Ci subconsciously blurted out: "He went again?"
"No," Shen Yingying hurriedly explained: "Originally, there were still some equipment and tools in the shop, which your uncle sold. He went to deliver them to someone."
Knowing what Aci was worried about, Shen Yingying reassured her: "Aci, don't worry. Since Auntie promised you, we won't be serious about this for now, we'll listen to your arrangements."
Hearing this, Shen Ci smiled with satisfaction: "That's right. Auntie, don't worry. You and Uncle have worked hard for half your lives to save this money, I will do my best to help you get it back."
At this moment, Gao Zhan made a video call.
Shen Ci didn't avoid it and clicked it immediately. On the other side of the video, Gao Zhan seemed to have just changed into his white coat and was preparing for today's rounds. His originally expressionless face instantly had a smile the moment he saw Shen Ci.
"You're up?"
Shen Yingying leaned over curiously to look. Shen Ci nodded and turned to introduce him to her aunt: "Auntie, my boyfriend Gao Zhan, he's a doctor."
Hearing that it was Aci's boyfriend, Shen Yingying's eyes lit up: "Hello, hello."
"Hello, Auntie."
Shen Ci pointed the camera at herself and looked at Gao Zhan: "You're going on rounds, right? Shall we talk when you're on break at noon?"
"I just wanted to see you. I was a bit worried because you left so hurriedly yesterday," Gao Zhan said truthfully: "But seeing your state, it seems you're in a good mood. It's good that nothing is wrong."
Seeing her aunt go to the kitchen, Shen Ci lowered her voice and said: "It's not that nothing is wrong, it's just that I don't know if the matter is big or small yet."
"How so?"
"A tumor was found in my aunt's body, but I don't know the specific results yet. I'm scared..."
"Don't be afraid," Gao Zhan interrupted Shen Ci's worry with a serious tone, his voice gentle and powerful: "Don't scare yourself first. Everything will wait until the results are out."
"However, regardless of whether it's benign or not, I suggest you bring your aunt to Longcheng for treatment. Several of the more authoritative tumor hospitals and well-known experts in the country are in Longcheng. My grandfather is one of them. If needed, I think he would be very willing to help."
If it were any other matter, Shen Ci would naturally not want to bother Gao Zhan's family.
But regarding her aunt's condition and health, she couldn't say "politely decline."
"Thank you, Gao Zhan. I'll tell you the first time I get the results."
Gao Zhan said gently: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
This sentence, coming from Gao Zhan's mouth, really made Shen Ci feel very at ease.
Over the next two days, Shen Ci handed the information of the developer who cheated her aunt and uncle to someone else to investigate, and soon received feedback.
The developer's move was actually a common trick in the real estate industry to make money with money: mortgage first, then sell, and use the mortgaged money to do other business and investments. As long as they pay the bank back on time, there would be no problems, and it was equivalent to a "white wolf with empty gloves."
Because even if they lost money and couldn't pay the bank back, there were still "innocent" owners to cover the bottom, and the developer wouldn't be hurt much, at most just a few more long and smelly lawsuits.
Shen Ci carefully read through all the details and sat on the sofa, pondering for a long time.
She wasn't involved in the real estate industry, and the people around her who did the most real estate business were Uncle Yang and Uncle Jiang.
After hesitating for a moment, Shen Ci didn't look for Boss Yang, but called Jiang Yuanliang directly.
Because she thought that the first time she met Uncle Jiang was in Shengang, so she guessed that Uncle Jiang should have business involvement and connections in Shengang.
And she had donated 10,000 yuan to the Jiangdong Group's charity fund, so she had some confidence in asking Uncle Jiang for a favor.
Although she knew that no matter what, Uncle Jiang would help her.
As it turned out, it was such a coincidence that Jiang Yuanliang was in Shengang at this time.
"I have a general understanding of your matter."
On the other end of the phone, after listening to Shen Ci's explanation, Jiang Yuanliang said in a relaxed tone: "The old routine of unscrupulous real estate developers, it's not an isolated case in the industry. But you don't have to worry, this matter is not difficult to handle. Wait for my news."
"Alright, thank you, Uncle Jiang," Shen Ci thanked him happily. She knew that looking for Uncle Jiang for this matter was definitely the right choice.
Just after hanging up the phone, the sound of the door opening came from the entrance. Shen Ci got up and heard her aunt say happily after the door opened: "Aci, look who's here!"
Shen Ci walked to the entrance and was startled to see the person behind her aunt: "Why are you here?"
Gao Zhan stood outside the door, looking at Shen Ci with a smile in his eyes: "I was still worried, thinking that since your aunt is sick, you might feel more at ease if I were by your side."
Shen Ci was filled with emotion, the kind of emotion that truly touched her heart.
Shen Yingying looked at Gao Zhan with satisfaction, and then at Aci: "I just came back from outside and recognized him at the entrance of the complex at a glance. Isn't this the boyfriend from your video?"
Being handsome really has its advantages; it makes people unforgettable.
Besides being moved, Shen Ci was also very surprised: "How did you find this place?"
"You posted a location of the complex on your Moments yesterday. I took a taxi directly here after I landed," Gao Zhan explained.
After he entered the house, Shen Ci walked up and hugged him: "Thank you for coming."
At this moment, the happiness was real, the emotion was real, and the peace of mind was even more real.
So she didn't want to say things like "actually you didn't need to come" or "I could do it myself," which were stubborn and mood-killing. ===== CHAPTER 630 =====
