Chapter 538 Dealing with Family Affairs
"We won’t be taking the house, but Zhang Yanlin previously borrowed money from my friend, and there was a contract written. Now that he’s in prison, are you paying the money back, or are you selling the shop?" Huo Chen pulled Xu Ying into the yard and directly found a chair to sit down.
Qu Huimin hesitated upon hearing this. She knew how much money the shop made, but the thought of paying back tens of thousands of yuan was daunting.
She had no money to repay the debt, and she didn’t know what to do with the business. If all the earnings were his, she might have tried, but the profits were to be shared with Zhang Yuhua. Even though Zhang Yuhua was also arrested, there was still Zhang Zhiguo.
As soon as Sun Yan returned, she saw Huo Chen and Xu Ying, and her face suddenly changed drastically, thinking they had come to drive her daughter away.
"What are you here for, what do you want with my daughter?"
"Auntie, we are here to discuss Zhang Yanlin’s shop. When he started it, he borrowed tens of thousands of yuan from my friend.
Now that he’s gone to prison, it’s your daughter’s responsibility to pay back the money. If your daughter can’t pay, we’ll have to take the shop back," explained Xu Ying in a gentle and friendly tone.
Sun Yan curled her lips as she listened, realizing that Zhang Yanlin hadn’t opened the shop with his own money after all, but with borrowed funds.
She wondered how he could be so wealthy.
"Let me discuss it with my daughter inside the house before we decide," Sun Yan said, then gestured for her daughter to follow her inside.
