C341 Even Blood Brothers Have to Settle Accounts
Si Leeting did not expose their conversation. He continued to ask, "Alright, how long do you need?"
The two of them looked at each other and Aunt Su continued to answer, "You saw the situation in Su Family too. I'm afraid we won't be able to return this much money in a short period of time. No matter what, it will take at least one or two years."
"One or two years?" Si Leeting did not say why, but his tone was very serious.
The two did not understand why he asked so clearly. "Leeting, what is the difference between one year and two years?"
"Of course there's a difference. It'll be useful when signing an IOU later."
"You still want to write promissory notes?" Aunt Su knew that this money was not so easy to borrow. She had originally gotten the money in the name of borrowing money, but she had never thought of returning it.
Si Leeting sneered. "Aunt has lived for more than half of her life. She should know that borrowing money requires a promissory note."
"I know, I know. I just feel that we are a family. We need to write promissory notes. Isn't this a little strange?"
"Strange? Could it be that we were very familiar with each other before?" Si Leeting's question made them speechless.
They were not even strangers. It could even be said that they were enemies.
Aunt Su forced a smile, "In the past, we did not have the chance. In the future, we will be more familiar with each other when we walk more often."
"Even brothers need to settle accounts, let alone us. If you do not write promissory notes, I will not give you this money."
Writing promissory notes had legal benefits. At that time, if they didn't return the money, he could ask the court to enforce it.
Aunt Su hated that she did not establish a good relationship with Si Leeting. Every step she took was wrong. There was nothing she could do now even if she regretted it.
"Okay, let's fight."
Si Leeting waved his hand and asked the servant to bring a pen and paper over. Si Leeting asked again.
"One year or two?"
"Two years."
"Okay, let Su Meng write the promissory note. The amount will be 1,1440,000."
"Why is there an extra 1,440,000?" Only then did Aunt Su realize that there was something wrong with Si Leeting's words.
"The interest is on account of us being relatives. I only took three percent of your profits. In two years, it was only a little more than one million."
Aunt Su was completely dumbfounded. This was a loan shark!
"Leeting, we are relatives. Why are you so heartless? The bank's loan is not even a cent."
Si Leeting put his hands on his head and looked at the two men indifferently. "The bank? Do you think the bank can still give you a loan in Su Family's current situation?
You still owe the bank a huge debt. "You've borrowed all the relatives and friends around you. What else can you do?"
Su Meng clenched her fists tightly. Si Leeting was right, but every word was harsh. This was the current situation of the Su Family.
"The Su Family will get better, it's just that it's not doing well now." Aunt Su said with red eyes.
Si Leeting snorted, "Anyway, that's all I have to say. If you want to borrow money, you can do it. You have to do it according to my request. Otherwise, there's no need to talk and see the guests out."
"Leeting, he is your uncle. Please help him. "We are really at a dead end. Otherwise, we wouldn't have bothered you.
To you, 10 million is just a matter of moving your fingers, isn't it? Even if you casually buy a ring, it would still be 100 million.
10 million yuan can save a person. This person is still your family. "Can you really stand by and do nothing?"
Si Leeting felt disgusted when he heard her talk about family. "I can spend my money however I want. Even if I donate 100 million tomorrow, it's still my business.
As for you always saying that we should help each other. Two years ago, at the wedding, you could have stood up and told the truth to prevent the tragedy from happening.
"Touch your conscience. Doesn't that hurt? "You caused Susu and I to be in such a miserable state, and now you are actually shameless enough to say that we are family."
Si Leeting thought about how painful it was for him to receive news of Su Jinxi's death when she fell into the sea. If Su Jinxi really died, Then they were the ones who indirectly killed Su Jinxi.
It was too late for him to hate her, let alone help them.
You did not even help him when he was at his weakest. What right did you have to ask others to save you when you were in trouble?
Gu Jin heard sounds of argument from outside and came out with a plate of fruit salad.
"Third Uncle, who's here?"
The mother and daughter of Su Family did not expect her to be here. Seeing her suddenly appear, Su Meng tightly grabbed Aunt Su's hand.
"Mom, she is Su Jinxi. Su Jinxi is still alive."
Gu Jin cast a glance at the two of them who were lingering around. The things that this mother did to her was even more detestable than what Su Meng did.
"What, I am still alive and made you worry? Do you want to sell me to the cruise ship again?"
Gu Jin took the fruit plate to Si Leeting's hand and spoke to him with a gentle expression.
"Third Uncle, have some fruits first. The steak will be ready soon."
Si Leeting also removed the coldness in front of them, "Are you tired? "Yes," Third Uncle said.
Her hands were white and tender. He could not bear to let her do the chores.
"Why would I be tired when I cook for Third Uncle? Let some irrelevant people affect your appetite." Gu Jin looked at the two of them unhappily, as if they were heinous criminals.
Si Leeting grabbed her hand and put it by his mouth and kissed it, "Susu, I'm not as fragile as you think I am.
"Although you're not weak, your stomach is weaker than glass. You haven't been able to eat or sleep well these few days in America. You've lost a few pounds of weight. Third Uncle, you want me to feel sorry for you. I want to take good care of you and make you healthy."
The two of them had a sweet interaction. They had totally forgotten about her.
Gu Jin fed Si Leeting a mango while Si Leeting forked a strawberry for her.
Many celebrities would deliberately pretend to love each other in order to hype up topics when they fell in love. The two of them did not have this kind of feeling at all.
They only saw each other in each other's eyes. This was just their daily life.
"By the way, Susu, what did you just say about selling you to a cruise ship?" Si Leeting still didn't know about that night.
Su Meng looked a little embarrassed. Based on Si Leeting's attitude towards Gu Jin, if he knew what happened that night, The money was even less in his hands.
"No, it's nothing. I was just joking with big sister." Su Meng quickly explained.
The more she did not dare to admit it, the more Si Leeting thought she wanted to cover it up.
"What's the matter with Susu?"
Su Jinxi looked at Su Meng, "It's nothing. It's just that on the night before our wedding, she collaborated with Bai Xiaoyu to sell me off on the cruise ship. I almost became someone else's toy."
Thinking about that night, he said good night to her but did not get any response. At that time, he thought Su Jinxi was asleep but now he knew she was actually sold!1
With a bang, the plate on the table was swept to the ground by Si Leeting.
Su Meng was already so scared that her face turned ashen. Her fingers tightly grabbed Aunt Su's sleeves.
Aunt Su did not know about this matter. She only felt that Su Meng was very strange that day.
"Third Uncle, it's already over. Don't worry, I didn't suffer any losses. My brother just happened to save me on the cruise ship." Gu Jin did not expect Si Leeting to be so angry.
After all, two years had passed since the incident. She was still alive and well, so there was no harm in saying it out loud.
Si Leeting's entire body was emitting a frightening chill, and his face was cold.
"Did you really do this to her?" He looked coldly at Su Meng, who was trembling in fear.
"I, I was just joking with big sister. Bai Xiaoyu asked me to do this." She quickly denied it.
The Su Family was already in a terrible situation. If she angered Si Leeting again, would she still be able to live?
Gu Jin advised Si Leeting, "Third Uncle, don't be angry. It has been so long, and nothing has really happened to me. With my brother protecting me, are you still worried?"
Si Leeting went to that kind of place a few years ago because of work. The men and women on the ship all wore masks to cover their ugly faces.
That scene was as lewd as it could be. His precious heart had been sold to that kind of place. Even if he was saved, just the thought of it made Si Leeting's heart surge with anger.
"Why didn't you say so earlier?" Si Leeting wanted to pick her up, but she didn't mention what happened that night.
Gu Jin scratched her head, "This... I forgot. I didn't tell you because I was afraid you would worry. You see, you are still so angry after two years. If I had known, I would not have mentioned it."
