Chapter 2036 The Life of a Tycoon 23
“It is only right and proper for a mother to pay her son’s debts. If you don’t pay them for him, do you want to just watch him work for me for ten years?”
Without a second thought, Lin's mother refused, then hurriedly distanced herself, saying, "He's already an adult. Ten years of work is ten years. Time will fly by. Anyway, if he doesn't work for you, he'll work somewhere else."
Su Yan sneered, "These ten years are his most precious ten years. You are willing to pay him money so that he can do what he wants instead of being trapped by me. You don't know, do you? He has no freedom for these ten years. He has to obey my orders 24 hours a day."
"this......"
"I'm only asking you to pool your money to pay him back now out of kindness. If you miss this opportunity, even if you have the money later, you won't be able to redeem him. Think about it yourselves."
After saying that, Su Yan looked at Lin Shouyue and gestured for him to perform.
Lin Shouyue understood her meaning at a glance and immediately got into character, looking pitifully at his mother: "Mom, please help me sell the house. I will definitely find a good job and earn money to support you."
"No, that won't do. If we sell the house, where will we live? Besides, this is your own mess, so you should take responsibility for it. How can you be so selfish and make our whole family suffer because of you?"
"Mom, but if I sell myself to her, I'll never have my freedom again."
"It's only been ten years, just bear with it and it will pass. Your brother is going to his future father-in-law's house, I have to go back and help him prepare a gift, so I'll be going now."
"Mom, can you really bear to see me lose my freedom and be burdened with debt?"
"You made this mess, so you have to take responsibility for it. Your dad and I can't help you. You'd better figure it out yourself."
"Mom, if you refuse to help me today, I will never acknowledge you again."
Lin Shouyue said through gritted teeth, seemingly speaking in anger, but his cold eyes revealed his true emotions.
"You good-for-nothing brat, you still want to disown me as your mother? I wasted my life giving birth to you. What good have you done all day long besides bringing disaster to the family? If you don't want to acknowledge me, then don't. I should have strangled you when I gave birth to you, so that I wouldn't have suffered so much all these years."
Lin's mother seemed angrier than Lin Shouyue. She pointed at Lin Shouyue and scolded him for being unfilial and calling him a jinx.
"You're a born debt collector! Maybe our Lin family can only truly recover without you. You're like a ghost all day long, with such long, gloomy hair that it's annoying to even look at you. I thought you'd at least be able to work and earn money to support the family when you grew up, but all you do is cause trouble. Today you crashed someone's car, and who knows if you'll burn down someone's house tomorrow. You don't acknowledge me, and I don't want such a good-for-nothing son. It's shameful to even talk about you! Humph!"
"You said it yourself, and I hope you won't regret it later," Lin Shouyue said coldly.
Lin's mother sneered, "Regret? I only regret not strangling you back then, letting you anger me for so many years."
Seeing that Lin's mother was about to start cursing again, Su Yan pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "What are you arguing about here? Are you going to pay me back or not? This is your only chance. If you miss this opportunity, you'll be my slave from now on."
Lin Shouyue lowered his head and said in a low voice, "I am willing to be your slave."
Lin's mother also said, "Just let him be your slave. Anyway, we're not going to pay back his debts. I have something to do, so I'll be leaving now."
Lin's mother ran away as if fleeing, terrified that Su Yan would catch her and demand money from her.
She originally came to ask Lin Shouyue for money, but instead of getting the money, she almost got splashed with dirty water and nearly couldn't get away.
What bad luck! This kid is more trouble than he's worth. I knew he was a jinx.
After Lin's mother returned home, the whole family was still waiting for her to bring the money back.
Lin's father adopted the airs of a patriarch and asked in a deep voice, "You're back. Where's the gift?"
Lin's mother said angrily, "Don't even mention it. That brat Lin Shouyue crashed into someone's luxury car and couldn't afford to pay for it. He even signed a ten-year contract to sell himself into servitude. He still wants money from me and wants us to sell our house to pay for it. He's utterly heartless. He doesn't think about what's best for his parents. Instead, he wants to drag us down. I should have strangled him back then so he wouldn't be a burden on our family."
Upon hearing this, Lin's father and younger brother were immediately furious.
Lin's father cursed with a dark face, "Useless thing, he really is a jinx. He brings bad luck to his parents at home and harms himself outside. I knew I could never count on him in this life."
Lin Sheng asked worriedly, "What about the gift I'm going to give to my future father-in-law? He won't pay for it, so what are we going to buy?"
Lin's mother was also heartbroken. Since Lin Shouyue wouldn't contribute any money, they had to use their own savings to subsidize their youngest son.
"It's okay, Mom will give you the money to buy it. I will never let you suffer any injustice."
Lin Sheng then said with satisfaction, "My elder brother is truly a scoundrel, harming both himself and others."
"That's right. If it weren't for him, would I have needed to use up my savings for my funeral?"
The family cursed Lin Shouyue for half an hour. If Lin Shouyue weren't their son, their ancestors for eighteen generations would probably have suffered as a result.
Lin Shouyue never expected that he could get rid of his parents in this way.
Seeing Su Yan casually eating ice cream, he sincerely thanked her, saying, "Thank you."
"You're welcome. Just make me some more delicious food in the future to repay me."
"Um, okay."
Such a good thing is almost like winning the lottery.
Having dealt with difficult, biased, bloodsucking parents, and being able to eat with the person you love every day, what could be happier than this?
Every morning, Lin Shouyue would wait outside Su Yan's door and hitch a ride on her electric scooter to go to school.
Wu Qingcheng felt extremely jealous seeing them going to and from school together every day.
Just then, Sun Hao, who was standing next to her, noticed her dark expression. He assumed that Wu Qingcheng was angry because of what others had said about her being rejected by Lin Shouyue after confessing her feelings to him, so he comforted her, "Don't be angry. It's because Lin Shouyue is blind that he doesn't like you. Besides, why would you be angry over a man who lives off a woman?"
"A gigolo?"
"That's right. He gets driven around by a woman every day. If Su Yan weren't rich, do you think he would even pay attention to her? It can't be true love, can it?"
"But he said he fell in love with Su Yan at first sight."
"Hehe, there aren't that many cases of love at first sight. Su Yan is so ordinary. As long as you're not blind, you'd definitely choose you over her."
"Maybe it's just that you have a biased view of me, which is why you think I'm prettier than her."
"Honestly, you are the undisputed school beauty. What is that Su Yan? She's not even a beauty. At best, she's just average-looking and can't compare to you."
Wu Qingcheng's mood improved after hearing Sun Hao's praise.
