Hu Jiasheng's expression was blank. "Tang Nannan is my woman from now on. I don't like her contacting other men, and neither do you. Don't call her again if there's nothing important."
"?!"
"I know you've had a tough time these past two years with your family issues, losing your wife and children. But Nannan isn't to blame for any of that."
"If you had charisma and the ability to cope with setbacks, your wife wouldn't have left you. We're both men, don't expect to gain my sympathy by playing the victim due to your incompetence."
"Nannan is young and soft-hearted. She might be threatened by you with such excuses and devoted herself to you without regret, but I won't be."
"Here's 5,000 yuan. Take it. We're relatives after all, consider it her final compensation for you. From now on, find a job and support yourself. Don't expect Nannan to give you another cent."
"You, you..."
Her uncle was almost infuriated to death by him.
"What kind of lunatic are you? What business is it of yours between my family members?"
"Or perhaps Tang Nannan had planned to sever ties with me all along and deliberately invited you over?"
So-called kinship, when faced with conflicts of interest, was nothing more than this.
Hu Jiasheng sneered, "You know what kind of person Tang Nannan is better than I do. Is there any point in saying such things?"
"As a man, instead of reflecting on yourself when facing problems, you only find fault with women. I look down on you."
"You, what are you to look down on me?"
Biting his lip, her uncle lunged 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. It would be you who loses face."
"You're still young, strong, and have decent features. You can completely earn a living with your own hands. Why put yourself through this?"
With that, Hu Jiasheng shook him off and went to get into his car. Her uncle, shamelessly, grabbed his clothes.
"So, Tang Nannan, relying on her youth and beauty, found a rich man and is now turning her back on me! After all these years of doting on her!"
"You look down on me and want to cut ties? 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 own business. The car is gone, but my money can't just go to waste! You pay her back the money!"
During their first meeting, because the rain was too heavy, Hu Jiasheng had looked more than a few times due to concern for the vehicle, so he remembered that car.
A certain pure electric model from BYD, with a total value not exceeding 100,000 yuan.
It looked about five to six years old, and as a used car, it was worth at most 10,000 yuan.
Knowing her uncle wouldn't give up easily, he had specifically gone to a bank near the hospital to withdraw 20,000 yuan in cash before coming.
He pulled out a stack and gave it to him.
"That car was second-hand, wasn't it? This money should be enough for you to buy another one. Now we're completely settled, you can leave, right?"
Although he received the money, her uncle seemed to have suffered a loss, grumbling and walking away, looking back repeatedly.
After arranging his brother in the psychiatric ward, Hu Jiasheng had once again spent tens of thousands.
Including the 15,000 yuan from her uncle and the deposit for the Central Hospital, in total, he had spent over a hundred thousand yuan within 24 hours.
Tang Nannan didn't know what words other than "savior" could describe him.
He hadn't rested all day, and the wound on his arm hadn't been properly treated. Honestly, Hu Jiasheng was in quite a bit of pain.
Having finally cleared Tang Nannan's obstacles, he now just wanted to go back and sleep.
Tang Nannan followed beside him, watching him rush back and forth at the hospital all day. Fatigue gradually appeared on his face, and her heart was filled with guilt and concern.
"Mr. Hu, you've worked hard today."
"It's nothing. Do you have anything else to do later?"
"Hmm?"
"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. After I rest for a bit, I'll tell you more."
Tang Nannan's heart began to pound.
He really meant it.
