Hu Jiasheng's expression was blank as he said, "Tang Nannan is mine from now on. I don't like her contacting other men, and neither do you. Don't call her anymore if there's nothing important."
"?!"
"I know you've had family troubles these past two years, and you lost your wife and children. It's been hard on you, but none of that is Nannan's fault."
"If you had charisma and the ability to cope with setbacks, would your wife have left you for someone else? We're both men, don't expect to gain my sympathy by playing the victim with your incompetence."
"Nannan is young and kind-hearted. She can be threatened by you with such excuses and dedicate herself to you without regret, but I won't."
"Here's 5,000 yuan. Take it. We're relatives, after all. Consider it her final compensation to you. From now on, find a job and support yourself. Don't expect Nannan to give you a single cent more."
"You, you..."
Her uncle was almost infuriated to death.
"What kind of lunatic are you? What business is it of yours, what happens between my family and me?"
"Or is it that Tang Nannan planned to cut ties with me all along, and she deliberately invited you over?"
So-called family affection, when faced with conflicting interests, is ultimately just like this.
Hu Jiasheng sneered, "You know what kind of person Tang Nannan is better than I do. Is it meaningful to say such things?"
"As a man, when you encounter problems, instead of reflecting on yourself, you only find fault with women. I look down on you."
"Who do you think you are, looking down on me?"
His uncle gritted his teeth and was about to rush forward to hit Hu Jiasheng, but his hand was easily caught.
"I don't want to waste words with you, nor do I want to fight you. You'd be the one losing face."
"You're still young, healthy, and have decent features. You can completely earn a living with your own hands. Why be like this?"
After speaking, Hu Jiasheng shook him off and went to get into the car, but his uncle, shamelessly, grabbed his clothes.
"So, Tang Nannan, relying on her youth and beauty, found a wealthy man and is now turning her back on me! After all the years I've doted on her!"
"You look down on me and want to cut ties with me? Fine! Give me back the money I spent on you!"
"When she was at her most difficult, I sold my watch to buy her a car so she could start her business. The car is gone, but my money can't go to waste! You repay the money for her!"
The first time they met, the rain was so heavy, and Hu Jiasheng, concerned about his car, had taken a few extra glances, so he remembered the car.
A certain pure electric model from BYD, with a total value of no more than 100,000 yuan.
It looked about five or six years old, and as a used car, it was worth at most 10,000 yuan.
Knowing that his uncle wouldn't give up easily, Hu Jiasheng had specifically gone to a bank near the hospital to withdraw 20,000 yuan in cash when he came.
He pulled out a stack and gave it to him.
"That car was second-hand, right? This money should be enough for you to buy another one. Now we're completely square, you can leave, can't you?"
Although he received the money, her uncle seemed to have lost out, muttering curses and walking away, looking back repeatedly.
After arranging for his younger brother in the psychiatric ward, Hu Jiasheng had once again spent tens of thousands.
Including the 15,000 yuan for his uncle and the deposit for the Central Hospital, in total, he had spent over 100,000 yuan within 24 hours.
Tang Nannan didn't know what else to call him besides a savior.
He hadn't properly treated the wound on his arm all day, and frankly, Hu Jiasheng was in quite a bit of pain.
Having finally cleared away Tang Nannan's obstacles, he just wanted to go back and sleep well.
Tang Nannan followed him, watching him rush around the hospital all day, exhaustion gradually appearing on his face. Her heart filled with guilt and concern.
"Mr. Hu, you've worked hard today."
"It's nothing. Do you have anything else to do later?"
"En?"
"I'm tired and need to rest, but your matters haven't been fully arranged."
Although Hu Jiasheng was tired, his thoughts were still clear.
"How about this, you come back with me first. I'll rest for a bit, and then we can talk."
Tang Nannan's heart began to beat faster.
He really meant that.
