Chapter 1 Chaos KTV
In the ward, Gao Longsheng already had a dying breath. He could still barely hold on for a while, but after Gao Wei's vicious scolding in the corridor, Gao Longsheng almost couldn't hold on anymore.
The hospital issued a critical illness notice twice, and Xu Lin signed it twice, looking like she was scared out of her wits. As Gao Long's condition worsened, the medical expenses also skyrocketed. Nowadays, hospitals are mostly bottomless pits that swallow people whole without spitting out their bones. No matter how much money you have, they can still devour it all. In the end, the patient is still just a dead person.
But driven by the instinct of survival, patients often know that this is a bottomless pit and still jump in like moths to flames.
"Long Sheng," Xu Lin gently shook Long Sheng's arm, biting her lip and saying, "Mortgage your car for a loan, our medical expenses... are a bit tight. They're all external things, let's treat the illness first."
Gao Longsheng felt dazed and confused, and upon hearing this sentence, he suddenly felt an infinite sense of desolation. I, the great Gao Longsheng, who just a few days ago had assets worth nearly 100 million, have fallen to such a state?!
But he didn't even have the strength to be indignant. He even suspected that this was a case of retribution. Just now, while he was unconscious, Old Master Ya Wei had come to claim his life again, covered in blood, and had scared Gao Longsheng half to death. Was it really the case that everything in the world had a predestined fate?
His eyes were somewhat dizzy, and Gao Longsheng was already very hard to support. This guy with a belly full of evil water only now felt that doing evil might have a great retribution. It wasn't that there was no revenge before, it's just that the time hadn't come yet.
Xu Lin persuaded again, saying: "Longsheng, actually, the car and all that, it's not a big deal if we don't have one. Moreover, even if we live a good life in the future, raising that kind of car is also very tiring. Let's treat the illness first, let's cure the disease first. The doctor said that as long as you rest and calm your mind for a period of time, you will get better."
"It's... it's all because of you..." Gao Longsheng couldn't lift his head, and let out a deep sigh. "Xiao Wei... doesn't understand things, don't... don't have anything to do with him..."
Gaolong Sheng signed the contract for the mortgage loan brought by Xulinn, while speaking. The handwriting was also twisted and similar to that of Qiangqiang, because Gaolong Sheng had no strength to hold the pen now.
Afterwards, Xu Lin waited until Gao Wei came back from having lunch and then hastily left, saying that she was going to raise money for Gao Longsheng's illness. Gao Wei also knew that they were short of money now and didn't say anything. Raising money is a good thing, now Gao Wei's mind is all about money.
……
However, Gao Wei and Gao Longsheng waited for Xu Lin in vain. They waited until nightfall, even if they couldn't raise the money, at least she should have come back! It was already hard enough for Gao Wei to take care of his own affairs, let alone change shifts. So, Gao Wei dialed Xu Lin's phone number, but what surprised him was that her phone had been turned off!
Even if Gao Wei was a blockhead, he now felt that something wasn't quite right. However, he couldn't think of what exactly had happened.
It wasn't until the next day that the problem finally surfaced!
A burly man came to the hospital, claiming to be an employee of a certain pawnshop in the city. He told Gao Wei that yesterday his mother (Xu Lin) brought a contract signed by Gao Longsheng and relevant documents such as property certificates, and mortgaged the car and villa to their pawnshop. The property certificate and other documents were all pledged to the pawnshop, and the car was even sealed there directly. The pawn period is three months. If the loan and interest cannot be repaid within three months, the pawnshop will take back the villa and car to offset the loan.
The pawnshop staff said: "Ms. Xu said that 100,000 yuan was deposited into your account because you need to use this money for medical expenses. Now please handle the signing procedure, and we will immediately transfer 100,000 yuan to your personal account."
Gao Longsheng, who was as weak as a strand of silk on the hospital bed, immediately became dizzy and his heart rate suddenly accelerated: "No...no...Xu Lin said...said it was just a mortgage...the car..."
In fact, he didn't even have the energy to read through the multi-page contract yesterday. Xu Lin said that they would use the car as collateral for a loan, and in his eagerness to save his life, he believed it. But among those terms, not only was the car included, but also the villa - the villa that Gao Long and his son considered their lifeline!
Gao Longsheng realized he had been cheated as soon as he finished speaking! Because he also realized that he hadn't read that clause at all yesterday!
One hundred thousand! Is it enough for Gao Longsheng's medical treatment?
And also, adding that car outside the villa, how can it be worth only 1 million? Gao Wei was furious: "What a joke! My family's villa is at least worth 30 million, and that car, even if it's depreciated, is worth 4 or 5 million! One million?!"
The pawnshop staff showed a professional smile: "This young man misunderstood, we operate honestly and would not do such a thing. Ms. Xu mortgaged her villa and car with us for a total of 2.2 million yuan. To be honest, doing this pawnbroking business is just like running an old-fashioned pawnshop. Being able to lend out more than half of the actual value is already very good in the industry. Moreover, we didn't say we wanted the villa. If you clear the 2.2 million yuan debt three months later, plus interest at a rate of 0.24% per month, you can still take back your villa and car. This 0.24% interest rate is also extremely low in private lending. Otherwise, our reputation wouldn't be the best in the city's pawnshops."
Many words were spoken, but the Gao family father and son only cared about one thing - Xu Lin mortgaged 2.2 million, but took 2.1 million and ran away!
Only 100,000 yuan was left for medical treatment, and it was also because Xu Lin, as a woman, had a soft heart. As the saying goes, "one night of marriage is worth a hundred days of kindness", Xu Lin didn't want Gao Long to die in the hospital, so she directly transferred the 100,000 yuan to Gao Long's personal account.
But that 2.1 million, Xulin thinks it's what she deserves! She dedicated her youth to Gao Longsheng, this middle-aged man, and wasted her good years, isn't it worth 2 million? A person, a woman, can only have so many youthful years?!
Gao Wei almost collapsed! One million, one million is enough to do what? "No, you must have colluded with each other! Since it's my dad's loan in his name, the 22 million should also be taken by my dad!"
The pawnshop staff took out the contract copy and pointed to a clause at the back, saying: "Look at this, it says that Ms. Xu Lin is fully authorized to handle everything, including withdrawals. Moreover, Ms. Xu Lin has her marriage certificate with Mr. Gao, and it's normal for spouses to handle such authorizations, especially since Mr. Gao is bedridden and can't run errands himself."
In fact, the pawnshop staff had already seen the contradiction, but in order to maintain the interests of their own pawnshop, they would naturally stick to what was stated in the contract.
Gao Wei was shocked! It's all over, everything is gone, from now on he has nothing left!
Gao Longsheng also knew that he was finished. More importantly, Xu Lin's betrayal as his confidant had dealt a severe blow to his already vulnerable heart, a fatal blow!
Husband and wife were originally birds in the same forest, but when disaster struck, they flew separately. What's more, this couple was a half-way husband and wife to begin with.
The pawnshop staff said sincerely: "Mr. Gao, please sign for the receipt of this 100,000 yuan, we still need to go through the formalities."
"Ah!" Gao Longsheng suddenly sat up straight, his eyes staring fixedly ahead, his fingers raised. Another mouthful of blood spurted out, staining the hospital gown and the white bed sheets red!
