Chapter 826 843: Lin Mu Handles It
At first, he just played cards with a few good friends, just gambling a little money. But after winning a little, he found himself deeper in, and then he started to play bigger games. Initially, he won some money, but once An Jian Country tasted the sweetness, he gambled bigger and bigger, and almost every time he ended up losing money. Every time he lost, he wanted to make up for the loss!But things often don't go as one wishes. The more he wanted to make up for it, the more he lost. So, he kept this mindset and lost again and again. An Jian Country seemed to have fallen into a quagmire, the more he struggled, the deeper he sank, ending up in the current situation!
An Jian Country looked at Qi'Er, somewhat annoyed, "You, you are the daughter I raised for nothing. Do you want to watch your father get hacked to death with your own eyes? Would you feel better if I got hacked to death?"
"Dad, I just don't want you to get hacked to death, that's why I'm trying to pull you out. Don't you understand? You're already in too deep, if you don't get out soon, you'll die in there sooner or later. Dad, wake up, if this continues, it won't just ruin you, but our entire family!" An Qi'Er pleaded earnestly.
An Jian Country, seeing that Qi'Er was not giving him money, turned his gaze to Mrs. An, "Child's mother, do you have money? Help me once more, I beg you, I promise, after this gamble, I will never gamble again. Help me!"
Mrs. An looked at An Jian Country with a face of helplessness, "Jian Country, the family money was all lost by you, where is there any money now? You know how much I earn!"
"Then, then how much do you have?" An Jian Country asked again.
"Not much left, just a few thousand." Mrs. An sighed and said, after all, they're a couple, seeing An Jian Country like this, she still couldn't bear it.
But it must be said, Mrs. An is indeed a good wife, and she loves her husband very much, otherwise given her husband's current state, even the daughter wanted them to divorce, yet Mrs. An still decided to stay by her husband's side, waiting for him to turn back from his wayward path! If it were anyone else, who would be willing to endure this suffering? They would have run away with the family assets long ago!
"Alright, a few thousand is fine, give it to me quickly, I'll gamble one more time, win back the money and pay off the debt, I won't gamble again after this." An Jian Country said.
"Dad, you still want to gamble? Don't you understand? Gambling is a bottomless pit, no matter how much money you have, it's never enough to fill it. Stop now, I'll find a way to help you pay off those debts, but you absolutely cannot gamble anymore." An Qi'Er said.
"No, this time I must win it back, I must win it back." An Jian Country said with red eyes, looking very unwilling to give up.
"Mom, you can't give Dad the money, you'd be harming him, he can't sink any lower." Qi'Er said to Mrs. An.
"This..." Mrs. An glanced at Qi'Er, then at An Jian Country, showing that she still couldn't bear it.
"Open the door, open the door!" At this moment, there was a "dong dong" knock at the door and a few men shouting outside.
"It's over, the people from the casino are here, what should we do? What should we do? I owe them money, finally managed to run away, they must be here to collect the debt, if I can't pay them, they'll definitely chop my hands. What should I do?" An Jian Country heard the shouting outside the door, his face panicked. Already somewhat disheveled, he appeared even more so at this moment.
Really don't know, how a man, head of the household, turned out like this, how this family can continue. At this moment Lin Mu felt very sympathetic toward Mrs. An, actually the one suffering most must be her as the wife.
The knocking outside continued, and the sounds got louder and louder, "An Jian Country, we know you're inside, you can't run away, if you don't pay, we'll chop off your hands and feet today, hurry up and open the door!"
"What should we do? Should we call the police?" Qi'Er said anxiously.
"Can't call the police, if we call the police they'll never let me go, we absolutely can't call the police." An Jian Country quickly refused.
"Then what should we do?" Mrs. An asked.
"Leave it to me, I'll handle it." Lin Mu said indifferently, the An Family was engrossed in discussing the issue, seemingly forgetting the presence of Lin Mu.
"Lin Mu, what do you propose?" Mrs. An seemed to see hope, quickly asking.
Lin Mu nodded, smiled, "Oh Mrs. An, don't worry, I can solve this issue, I can help Uncle pay off the debt, but Uncle must agree to a few things, otherwise I can't help."
"Speak, as long as the debt is paid, I'll agree to anything." An Jian Country promptly replied.
"First, I can help you resolve this matter completely, ensuring they won't bother you again, but you mustn't gamble anymore, that's the most important thing."
"No problem, I agree."
"Second, once this is resolved, I'll help find you an easy job, earn a good living, support the family. Being a big man, the whole family relying on a woman for support, aren't you ashamed?"
An Jian Country nodded, sighed, "But my leg, alas, what can I do? Which company would want me?"
"You don't have to worry about that, just tell me whether you agree or not!" Lin Mu said, based on his capabilities, arranging for a disabled person, not to mention arranging for ten or a hundred disabled people isn't a problem, merely arranging an idle position, giving him a medium-level salary is all that matters.
"Alright, I agree, as long as you solve this issue, I'll agree to anything, promise not to gamble again, I'll support this family!" An Jian Country said with a firm expression, didn't look like he was joking.
"Hmm, okay then, nothing else, you haven't owed them money before, have you?" Lin Mu lightly said.
"Damn..." An Jian Country helplessly glanced at Lin Mu, thinking he was going to pay the debt, but instead, he said such frustrating words!
"Cut it, you say there's no debt? Who do you think you are? People are still knocking outside!"
Suddenly Mr. An felt like he was being toyed with, not only Mr. An, but even Qi'Er and Mrs. An looked distrustfully at Lin Mu, this matter isn't just talk, the knocking outside got louder, the shouted curses were unbearable to hear, almost breaking into the door!
Lin Mu remained calm, didn't say much, just smiled, stepped forward to open the door. Mr. An saw this and quickly grabbed Lin Mu.
"What are you going to do?" An Jian Country held onto Lin Mu's arm.
"I said, now this matter is my own business, it has nothing to do with your family, I'm naturally going to open the door and explain it to them!" Lin Mu turned his head and calmly said.
"They're still outside and haven't left, these people are ruthless, if you go out it's a death wish, you can't open the door!" An Jian Country said in horror.
