“Yan’er, what’s going on?”
Gu Mian felt awful and depressed. Her mother had told her just now that Gu Ling had gambled away the family company. Reportedly, he also owed someone a lot of money. As for how much he owed, Gu Ling did not specify.
“Ah? It’s nothing. Mum, big sister, let’s eat.” Gu Yan put the dishes and rice on the table. She recalled the man who had rescued her earlier on and was rather enamoured with him.
Gu Mian saw that she was not injured and did not bother asking more questions
When Su Qianxun arrived at the hospital, Gu Mian, her younger sister and her mother had just finished lunch. Su Qianxun had a brief conversation with Mrs. Gu before following Gu Mian to her father’s ward.
Mr. Gu was still in the intensive care unit.
Gu Mian told Su Qianxun what she knew about the current situation. As she listened, Su Qianxun scrunched up her brows. She thought that this was a very difficult problem to solve.
“How did he even gamble away the whole company?” Su Qianxun thought that what Gu Ling did this time was absolutely outrageous.
“I have no idea. A while ago, he mortgaged the company for one billion RMB of loan. After he got the money, he simply disappeared. I guess he had probably run off to gamble.”
As they spoke, Gu Mian’s cell phone started ringing. The moment she answered the phone, she heard Gu Ling asking for help. “Little sister, help me! They’re going to kill me. They’re going to kill me!”
Gu Ling’s voice was extremely harrowing. Hearing him, the two young women immediately turned pale.
“Your older brother owes me five billion RMB. If you can pay off his debt, I’ll spare his life, or else I’ll chop off parts of his body one by one and feed them to sharks!”
Gu Mian and Su Qianxun were both shocked. Gu Ling had owed someone five billion RMB! It was an astronomical number to them!
“Little sister, save me. You have to save your older brother!” Gu Ling’s cry sounded chillingly anguish.
“Save you? How do I save you? How do I get five billion RMB to save you? I can’t get that much money even if I pimp myself!” Gu Mian bellowed angrily.
But just as she finished yelling, she immediately heard her older brother’s harrowing scream from the other end of the line. Gu Mian was frightened. She quickly said, “I’ll think of something!”
“I want the money by tomorrow evening!”
The caller hung up right after that.
Gu Mian’s body went limp. She almost collapsed. Su Qianxun quickly held her and said, “Don’t panic. Don’t panic. Let’s think of a solution together.”
“What solution can we possibly come up with? What other choices do we have?” Gu Mian wanted so badly to strangle Gu Ling, that useless bastard of a brother with her own hands.
Su Qianxun mused in silence.
“I’ll go to Long Sijue. I’ll borrow some money from him, as much as I can!” Su Qianxun had no other choice. She knew very well that no matter how despicable Gu Ling was, she would never leave him to die.
“Qianxun, don’t trouble yourself. I’ll think of something on my own.”
Gu Mian also understood that five billion RMB was a lot of money. Even if Long Sijue was rich, he would not simply give that amount of money to Su Qianxun without asking for anything in return. She could not trouble her friend with her family matter. Su Qianxun’s life was already hard as it was.
If she could get five billion RMB by pimping herself, she would have done that now without hesitation…
“I’ll try my best.” Su Qianxun did not dare to promise her that she would manage to borrow money from Long Sijue for sure. Even if she could, she knew very well that it would be difficult to obtain five billion RMB. But she still needed to try as hard as she could.
After Su Qianxun left, Gu Mian remained where she stood, alone and helpless. She sensed that her limbs were still limp.
She recalled that when she was young, Gu Ling genuinely adored her and Yan’er. If anyone dared to bully them, Gu Ling would definitely beat the bully into a pulp.
When Su Qianxun rushed to the Long Corporation, Long Sijue was signing a pile of documents at his desk. Seeing the young woman scurried into his office frantically, he furrowed his eyebrows and asked, “What happened?”
