Chapter 171 Throwing Dirty Water?
Chapter 171 Throwing Dirty Water?
Shen Lang remained unfazed by the reprimand.
He crossed his arms, glanced at Ye Feng with disdain, and said dismissively, "Yes! That's right!"
"It was indeed my fault in this matter. I trusted the Zhang family father and son, which is why I was deceived. But putting that aside, isn't this kid also at fault?"
Ok?
Ye Feng was slightly stunned, his mind momentarily blank.
What happened? How could this be related to me?
Qin Yao chuckled in exasperation, then asked directly, "Then tell me! I want to see how you managed to throw this dirty water on Ye Feng today!"
The more she talked, the more she regretted it!
What an irresponsible man! Even at a time like this, he's still trying to shirk responsibility. Qin Yao felt increasingly annoyed.
"Hahaha, why would I need to splash dirty water?"
"Don't you guys use your brains? We have no grudge against the Zhang family, and Luo Yi is even their classmate with a good relationship. Why would they want to trick us for no reason?"
Shen Lang had already prepared his explanation.
After these words were spoken, both Shen Luoyi and Qin Yao were slightly stunned.
That seems to make sense; logically speaking, there's no reason to lie to them.
"Why is that?" Qin Yao suddenly asked, somewhat curious.
"Isn't it because that kid Ye Feng tricked Zhang Pu during dinner?"
"They kindly invited us to dinner, and this guy, not only ungrateful, he also ripped us off. Let alone them, anyone in their shoes would be resentful!"
Shen Lang snorted coldly, his expression towards Ye Feng growing even colder. "So, they hold a grudge, that's why they're thinking of taking revenge on us. Otherwise, why would they do this?"
"Remember this: there is no love or hate without a reason in this world; everything has a cause and effect!"
The living room fell silent.
Everyone looked at each other, speechless.
Ye Feng couldn't help but twitch his lips at this moment.
He once suspected that Shen Lang was so heartbroken from being deceived that he had begun to lose his mind and talk nonsense.
There are people in this world who can say such things.
Qin Yao's curiosity gradually turned into speechlessness, and finally she directly mocked, "You old fool, you're getting better and better at making excuses. You always find fault with others. Why don't you just admit you have no brains!"
"In the end, isn't it just that you're simple-minded and lack intelligence? Your two children tried so many times to persuade you, but you wouldn't listen. It was like you were brainwashed. Now that something's happened, you're trying to find someone to take the blame!"
"If you ask me, you're a complete waste! Incompetent, yet you're all talk and no action!"
These words truly expressed Ye Feng's innermost thoughts.
Shen Lang, now red-faced and furious, wished he could disappear into the ground. He immediately yelled back, "Yes, yes, it's all my fault! You're all right, you're all good people, and I'm the only one who's wicked!"
"I did everything I could for this family, and in the end, I'm caught in the middle! Qin Yao, don't forget, when an avalanche happens, no snowflake is innocent!"
"We've been married for so many years, and our daughter is all grown up. Don't you understand me at all? How could you not have imagined I would do this? Do you have any feelings for me at all?"
The two argued more and more fiercely, as if they wanted to turn the whole house upside down.
Shen Luoyi's irritation deepened, and finally she couldn't hold back any longer and slammed her hand on the table.
boom!
A loud noise came, and the two men barely stopped arguing, both looking at her.
"That's enough!"
"Things have already come to this, what's the point of arguing anymore!"
Shen Luoyi spoke coldly, and although the couple were dissatisfied, they didn't dare to say anything more. They just glared at each other before giving up.
"Daughter, what should we do about this?"
"I'd do anything to get this money back."
Shen Lang was filled with regret, but he couldn't possibly bow down to Qin Yao, so he could only turn to Shen Luoyi for help.
"What other options are there?"
"The only thing we can do is try to use our family connections to see if we can find a way to get it back."
As Shen Luoyi spoke, she glanced at Ye Feng, seemingly unintentionally.
It seems they also approved of Ye Feng's idea.
"Yes, yes, yes! You're right!"
"I'll call right now!"
Shen Lang nodded repeatedly, quickly took out his phone and dialed each number in a humble and pleading manner.
Ye Feng wanted to laugh at this scene.
When he suggested using connections, the other party was extremely disdainful and even flew into a rage. However, when Shen Luoyi made these suggestions, the other party had a completely different attitude.
That's really the ultimate double standard.
After the couple had been struggling for two hours, a phone call came in.
"Shh! Don't say anything, there must be a result!"
Shen Lang was extremely nervous at this moment. After giving a reminder, he answered the phone, "Hello, yes, yes, it's me. How did it go?"
"Huh... Ah? What!"
In just a few seconds, Shen Lang's expression changed several times, finally turning into despair.
After hanging up the phone, he couldn't even hold onto it properly, and it fell straight to the ground.
"What's wrong? Say something!"
Qin Yao asked anxiously from the side.
"It's gone, it's all gone!"
"Those father and son dogs have already run away and are now overseas!"
Shen Lang seemed to have all his strength drained away, and he looked extremely dejected.
The hope that had been so hard to ignite was suddenly doused with cold water and extinguished without a trace.
"what?"
Qin Yao was also stunned; this was clearly planned in advance!
Otherwise, how could they have run so fast? It's only been a short time, and they're already overseas!
"What are we going to do? We can't get the money back, and the group can't come up with any funds. It's really all over now."
Qin Yao's face was pale; she was utterly desperate.
All my hard work is about to be wasted, and in the end I've gained nothing.
Hey!
Ye Feng sighed softly, bent down to pick up the bank card from the ground, and handed it to Qin Yao again, "Aunt Qin, the money in this card is enough to help you get through the company's difficulties. You can use it first."
It wasn't because of the Shen family, but simply because of their kinship.
Before Qin Yao could speak, Shen Lang, like a cat with its fur standing on end, launched into another hysterical tirade, "You useless piece of trash, are you never going to stop! Didn't you hear what I just said?!"
"You live in your own fantasy all day long. If it weren't for you, things wouldn't have turned out this way. You'd better shut up and stop trying to get attention!"
Ye Feng frowned slightly, and immediately lost his temper.
He didn't know who gave Shen Lang the courage to jump around in front of him. He was about to lash out when he felt a sharp gaze shot over him.
Shen Luoyi stared coldly at him, and said angrily, "Ye Feng, that's enough!"
