Jiang Feng did not go to the company over the following few days. Since Zhang Qidong and the others were there to oversee the company, there was no need for him to worry.
At this moment, Jiang Feng lay on his bed, lost in his thoughts. His relatives had been calling him, but fortunately, they still did not know where his new house was. For the time being, they would not be able to disturb his family. However, this problem had to be solved sooner or later.
At this time, he received a call from his sister. His heart skipped a beat, wondering if his relatives had come looking for trouble. His heart tightened when he thought about his parents.
Jiang Feng asked nervously, “What happened? Did the relatives come?”
“No, Second Uncle is here. He wants to see you. Mom and Dad want you to come back,” Little Yu said with a smile.
Their second uncle treated them very well. Previously, there had been no news. Now that he was here, Little Yu was very happy.
On the contrary, Jiang Feng did not look very happy. Instead, his heart sank. He could not help but wonder why his second uncle showed up only after news of the bankruptcy spread. Did he come to ask for money as well? His second uncle had always been good to his family. When the other relatives shunned their family, it was his second uncle who helped them and gave warmth to him and his little sister. Was it possible that his uncle had also become like his other relatives?
With this thought in mind, Jiang Feng felt uncomfortable. He really wished his second uncle did not come to ask for money. Were all his relatives like that or was there something wrong with him or his family?
Jiang Feng pursed his lips. His mood was low.
…
Jiang Feng took a cab to the hospital. When he arrived, he hesitated. In the past, his second uncle always wore a faint smile and a doting expression on his face. He hoped his second uncle did not change.
After a moment, Jiang Feng calmed down and prepared himself for the worst.
Jiang Jianzhong and Yu Xiumei were naturally present. In addition, Jiang Feng saw a bearded middle-aged man in his forties. Although his appearance had changed, he still looked familiar to Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng pursed his lips, thinking that his second uncle came for money.
At this moment, Yu Xiumei rose to her feet. She smiled apologetically at her brother-in-law before she said to Jiang Feng, “What’s wrong? Quick, greet your second uncle.”
Jiang Jianzhong added, “Little Feng is probably too excited. He was talking about you previously. Little Feng, hurry up and greet your second uncle.”
Jiang Feng’s mood was low as he bowed politely. “Hello, Second Uncle.”
“You’ve grown so much. You’re no longer the same as when you were young. You’re very bold now,” Jiang Feng’s second uncle scoffed and said in a slightly cold voice. He was clearly displeased. He felt that Jiang Feng had gotten out of control and had even brought trouble to his family.
“Second Uncle, you’re…” Jiang Feng was perplexed. He wanted to say something but hesitated. At the same time, there was a hint of expectations in his heart. He wondered if it was possible that his second uncle did not come to look for money. Perhaps, his second uncle did not change and was still the same person who treated his family sincerely.
Jiang Feng’s second uncle felt his anger rise when he thought about the post on WeChat’s Moments. He cursed angrily, “You brat! Do you have a brain? Do you know that Little Yu still needs treatment? It wasn’t easy for your family to receive 10 million yuan in compensation, but you actually squandered it all! Your family didn’t have money, to begin with. It was not easy to receive such a huge sum of money, but you gambled it all on Bitcoin! What are you going to do about Little Yu now? You don’t have the capability, but you dare to take such risks!”
Jiang Feng’s uncle continued his tirade. “You dare to mess around just because you have some money! Your parents worked hard their entire lives, and yet, you didn’t think about saving the money so they could enjoy their lives! What an unfilial son!”
At the end of his words, Jiang Feng’s second uncle looked a little teary-eyed when he turned to look at Little Yu, Jiang Jianzhong, and Yu Xiumei who were dressed very plainly. His heart ached, and he felt distressed.
At the same time, Jiang Feng’s second uncle was confused. Jiang Feng used to be a very sensible kid in the past. He did not understand why Jiang Feng would act like that now. He truly pitied his brother and sister-in-law. His niece, whom he doted on, needed treatment, and yet, they did not have money to pay for the medical fees. Fortunately, he found out in time. Otherwise, his niece might have been kicked out of the hospital in a few days. At that time, his niece’s life would be ruined.
With this thought in mind, Jiang Feng’s second uncle grew anxious again. He quickly took a stack of cash out of his bag and said, “There’s 30,000 yuan here. Hurry up, and use this to pay for Little Yu’s medical fees. Otherwise, the hospital might drive her away.”
Jiang Feng’s second uncle moved to stand in front of Jiang Feng and pushed the money into Jiang Feng’s hand. He said urgently, “Hurry up. Go.”
Jiang Feng finally regained his senses. His heart was suffused with warmth, and all his worries vanished in an instant. He had misunderstood his second uncle. His second uncle did not change at all, and his second uncle was still the same person who treated them very well.
Clearly, Jiang Feng’s second uncle was unaware of the bankruptcy being fake. However, his other relatives had clearly known about it; that was why they had been calling him non-stop. If it were not for the fact that his relatives did not know where they were staying, they would have long gathered at his new house. Did his second uncle not have access to the Internet?
Jiang Feng was very moved. He said sincerely, “Second Uncle, you misunderstood. The truth is that I didn’t lose any money. I’ve also already paid for Little Yu’s medical fees.”
“What?” Jiang Feng’s second uncle was dumbfounded. He lowered his hand that was holding the money subconsciously as he wondered inwardly, ‘Didn’t lose any money? What’s going on? I clearly remember seeing Little Feng’s post about losing everything. Did I see wrongly? However, I read it several times and only came over after confirming it. If he didn’t lose money, does this mean he didn’t invest in Bitcoin or what?’
As though he could read his second uncle’s thoughts, Jiang Feng explained with a smile, “It’s true that I invested in Bitcoin, but I made 100 million instead of losing money.”
Jiang Jianzhong chimed in, “Second Brother, don’t worry. Little Feng really made a lot of money. Little Yu’s medical fees had been paid for a while now. Little Feng even hired a very good doctor.”
“That’s right. Little Feng is very capable and filial. He even hired a doctor to treat his father’s old illness. He even bought a villa for us. You have to visit us later. It’s really big and nice,” Yu Xiumei said with a smile, barely able to conceal her joy.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng’s second uncle sighed in relief. He said, “You brat, you even fooled your second uncle! As it turned out, you made money. As expected of my nephew. I didn’t expect you to be so remarkable. Second Uncle is proud of you.”
Jiang Feng’s second uncle patted Jiang Feng’s shoulder. The pride in his eyes could not be concealed at all. He did not expect Jiang Feng to give him such a big surprise. In the past, Jiang Feng was a simple child. As it turned out, Jiang Feng was a genius. In the future, his brother and sister-in-law would have nothing to worry about for the rest of their lives and no longer have to break their backs working. Since his nephew was very filial, he was very relieved.
Jiang Feng stuffed the money back into his second uncle’s hand and pulled his second uncle to sit down before he asked, “Second Uncle, you should keep this money for yourself. How have you been doing recently?”
Jiang Feng’s second uncle forced a smile on his face and said, “I’m okay. Life is filled with ups and downs, but I’m still doing okay.”
Jiang Feng could tell that something was wrong. His second uncle likely did not want to worry Jiang Jianzhong and Yu Xiumei was around so his second uncle had said such words.
However, Jiang Jianzhong naturally could tell something was wrong as well. He quickly said, “Second Brother, stay with us while you’re here. It’d be livelier at home with an extra person.”
“No, no, no. How can I trouble all of you?” Jiang Feng’s second uncle shook his head and waved his hand.
Little Yu chimed in, “Second uncle, stay with us! I miss you so much. The house is too big and empty. Stay with us!”
“Second Uncle, it’s decided. You should live with my parents,” Jiang Feng quickly said.
Jiang Feng’s second uncle smiled foolishly. He was very moved. He said, “Alright, alright. I’ll stay and accompany Little Yu.”
He felt very satisfied that Jiang Feng and Little Yu were so sensible.
