Chapter 2464 - 1555: Stubborn and Unrepentant!
Hong Xiaoyu sensed something was wrong, "Uncle, what’s going on?"
"Didn’t the Fang Family tell you?"
Zhang Zhongquan looked at his cousin.
Jiang Huazi frowned even more, her gaze sharp and oppressive, questioning, "Tell me what?"
Zhang Zhongquan inexplicably went quiet again, his expression like he had constipation.
"Uncle, what exactly happened? Tell me."
Hong Xiaoyu was curious and anxious.
Zhang Zhongquan swallowed, lightly coughed, and then slowly said, "I’ve decided to withdraw the lawsuit."
"What?!"
Jiang Huazi’s pupils contracted sharply, pushed her son aside, and rushed towards Zhang Zhongquan like a wolf or tiger.
"What did you say?!"
Even though her family had a fierce shrew, Zhang Zhongquan was still startled by his cousin’s aura and involuntarily took two steps back, his expression unnatural, stammering, "I said, I withdrew the lawsuit."
"Why withdraw?"
Hong Xiaoyu was puzzled, "Uncle, didn’t you say you would take it to the end?"
"That’s not what I meant..."
"That is exactly what you meant. And Uncle, when Sister Fang Qing asked you, you made a promise to her..."
"I don’t quite remember, I drank a bit too much that day..."
"Bastard!"
Jiang Huazi was furious, combining her observational analysis, she quickly deduces the general situation.
"Did you withdraw the lawsuit behind the Fang Family’s back?"
Zhang Zhongquan avoided her gaze but straightened his neck, "What do you mean by ’behind their back’? Withdrawing or not is my legal right, it’s also my freedom."
Hong Xiaoyu was stunned, then couldn’t help but say, "Uncle... you’re being foolish!"
"Have you discussed it with Sister Fang Qing?"
He immediately asked impatiently.
"Discussed my ass! If he had discussed it, would he be acting so guilty?"
Jiang Huazi was so angry her face turned red, originally thinking the matter had been properly resolved, but who knew this asshole would still give her a massive "surprise"!
"You’re simply an ungrateful wretch!"
She raised her trembling hand, pointing at Zhang Zhongquan’s nose, too angry to speak coherently.
She had tried every possible way, disregarded her dignity, and finally pleaded with the Fang Family to help, only for this.
This bastard who only cares about himself sold everyone out!
"Uncle, why did you do this?!"
Hong Xiaoyu also couldn’t understand, and in his urgency, he lost control of his tone, becoming somewhat aggressive, no longer as polite.
"Isn’t it better that I do this?!"
Zhang Zhongquan also had a temper, being scolded by Jiang Huazi was one thing, but now even his nephew was reprimanding him, which ignited his anger.
"Without a court hearing, things can be resolved, saving everyone’s time and energy, isn’t that a win-win?!"
What a "win-win".
Thinking of herself as a matchmaker, Jiang Huazi felt murderous.
She wished she could slap herself.
Why did she have to suggest it when the Zhang Family decided to buy a house?
"I deserve this!"
Jiang Huazi stomped her feet.
Zhang Zhongquan’s lips moved, and his remaining conscience stirred, "Sister, I know you’ve done a lot for me, and I’m really grateful to you."
"I should be thanking you!"
Jiang Huazi clasped her hands together, "I beg you, from today on, pretend I don’t exist as a sister."
Zhang Zhongquan was embarrassed, he could only glance at his nephew.
"Uncle, did you really settle privately with Green Land?"
Zhang Zhongquan couldn’t avoid it and gave a vague "mm" in response.
Hong Xiaoyu’s heart sank.
To deceive Sister Fang Qing was one thing.
The key is.
The cousin is also here.
Originally, it was an opportunity to put aside past grievances, but instead, the rift widened, probably irreparable anymore.
Hong Xiaoyu fell silent, his eyes trembling, looking at this uncle, feeling only one thing.
Pitying his misfortune.
And angered by his incompetence!
Jiang Huazi was more direct, "What conditions did Green Land offer you?"
Zhang Zhongquan remained silent.
Nothing other than.
A confidentiality agreement was involved.
"What? Did they offer an exorbitant amount? Afraid we’ll be envious?"
"I signed an agreement, if I disclose anything, I’ll have legal responsibilities."
Zhang Zhongquan said weakly.
"Also, where did the exorbitant amount come from, they’re not stupid. Real estate developers are profit-driven, how could they do charity."
"If Green Land isn’t stupid, then you’re the one who’s stupid!"
Jiang Huazi’s chest started to hurt faintly, "Don’t tell me a small bit of profit bought you over."
"Sister, stop trying to get it out of me, I really can’t say. If I do, given Green Land’s legal team, they’ll definitely make me go to jail."
"Green Land’s legal team can’t be more formidable than Sister Fang Qing, and for this case, Uncle is completely in the right. If you take it to court, you’re guaranteed to win! If that wasn’t the case, why would Green Land settle privately with you?"
"You’re still young!"
Zhang Zhongquan retorted to his nephew, "Green Land isn’t afraid of lawsuits; do you think they’re really afraid of Fang Qing? They just don’t want to make it a bigger deal! The Fang Family’s daughter is successful, but this is Sha City, Green Land’s turf!"
Hong Xiaoyu was silent.
Does he think his uncle is hopeless?
He seems to lack that qualification.
His uncle hadn’t stepped out of Sha City, hadn’t seen this diverse world, he couldn’t take a condescending stance to bully an elder.
But even if he didn’t have the qualification, his mom Jiang Huazi did.
Indeed, even though Zhang Zhongquan had legal awareness, "keeping his mouth shut," hearing his words made it clear, what Green Land offered definitely wasn’t much, at most, it was probably just a refund of the purchase.
Is that "compensation"?
No.
That’s charity!
"You’re incredibly stupid!"
Jiang Huazi’s finger nearly pointed to Zhang Zhongquan’s forehead.
"You don’t understand the Fang Family’s conduct, but I do! If they weren’t absolutely sure, they wouldn’t have told you not to compromise and to fight it out to the end!"
Zhang Zhongquan subconsciously wanted to refute, but Jiang Huazi didn’t give him the chance.
Endurance reaching its limit, no need to endure any longer.
She had already understood, from today, this familial relationship was over.
As a cousin, she had done her best, it was the other party who didn’t consider her position.
"Don’t talk about how powerful Green Land is, yes, they can easily bully ordinary folks like us, but that’s all they’re capable of, I’m telling you now! To the two kids, Green Land is worth nothing!"
Hong Xiaoyu kept his mind clear, quickly pulling his mom’s arm quietly, but she shook it off immediately.
"What are you pulling for! I’m stating the facts! Zhang Zhongquan, don’t always look at issues with your narrow, shallow perspective, you probably don’t know yet, do you?"
Zhang Zhongquan, almost flushed red from her words, clutched his hands, nearly erupting, but restrained due to her last remark.
"What news?"
"I thought you were the instigator. I overestimated you! You withdrew the lawsuit, right? Good! As of now, nearly a hundred households from Greenfield Phase II have collectively sued Green Land, having you or not, makes no difference!"
Zhang Zhongquan was caught off guard, shocked, "How is that possible! Where did they find a lawyer?! No lawyer in all of Sha City dares take this case!"
Indeed.
To avoid embarrassment, after officially withdrawing, he deleted all the owner groups and contacts of other owners, otherwise, he wouldn’t be unaware of such significant news.
"Then you? Where did you get a lawyer?"
"..."
Zhang Zhongquan was suddenly speechless.
"Withdrawing is your freedom and right, but I hope you won’t regret it."
For some reason, an inexplicable ominous premonition arose in Zhang Zhongquan’s heart, leaving him feeling empty, uncomfortable.
"Sister, were you brainwashed?!"
Jiang Huazi shook her head, suddenly becoming calm.
"You don’t even know what you’ve lost, take your things and leave. Or else."
Jiang Huazi glanced at her son, "Throw it in the trash."
Hong Xiaoyu remained silent, his expression complicated.
"Incurably stubborn!"
Zhang Zhongquan snorted, picked up his things, and left in a huff.
