We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong

"Boss, don't worry, I'll handle this small matter immediately and expect to give you a clear answer within half an hour," Brother Wu responded readily.

For Brother Wu, this was indeed a trivial matter that could be easily resolved.

If they were pursuing the loan from Guan Shan through legitimate channels, Su Cheng would naturally respect the law and rules, and would not bully the weak, let alone interfere.

However, if they dared to involve the innocent Guan Jiahui, who was still in school, Su Cheng would certainly not stand idly by and let things develop.

After finishing the phone call, Su Cheng sat back down next to Guan Jiahui, and the two continued to chat.

Since there were only the two of them in the hall, Guan Jiahui mostly knew but didn't speak, especially since Su Cheng had now become her only support.

From their conversation, Su Cheng gradually learned that Guan Jiahui actually knew very little about her father Guan Shan's debt problems.

This all came too suddenly, leaving her with almost no psychological preparation, let alone time to carefully digest and cope with it.

Su Cheng sighed inwardly. If Guan Shan could have been honest with his daughter earlier, perhaps Guan Jiahui would have been emotionally prepared, and might even have considered using that huge sum of money Su Cheng had told her to keep secret to help her father through the crisis.

After all, blood is thicker than water, and the power of kinship can often lead people to make unexpected decisions.

But the reality was cruel. Guan Shan chose to run away, and only told Guan Jiahui the truth at the last moment, which was undoubtedly a heavy blow to her heart.

Su Cheng could deeply feel the pain and helplessness in Guan Jiahui's heart. He gently held her hand, giving her silent comfort and support.

At this moment, he was even more determined to protect Guan Jiahui.

In less than half an hour, Brother Wu indeed called back.

"Boss, after my detailed investigation, Mr. Guan Shan recklessly borrowed nearly one million Hong Kong dollars in the form of high-interest loans due to poor business management. As a result, he suffered a comprehensive loss, not only losing all his savings, but also incurring huge debts.

Currently, his only property in Hong Kong, worth only over two hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars, has already been mortgaged to the creditor. Therefore, he is indeed unable to repay the debt and ultimately chose to flee Hong Kong.

I have communicated with the lender, and they have promised not to involve Miss Guan Jiahui in this matter. Please rest assured, boss, I will continue to arrange for people to closely monitor this matter. Our Tian He Bodyguard Company has a reputation, and they will not act rashly.

Once there is any movement that is unfavorable to Miss Guan Jiahui, we will immediately take measures to make them regret their decision!" Brother Wu reported to Su Cheng in a clear and organized manner.

"Brother Wu, you handled it very well. I'm relieved now," Su Cheng nodded with satisfaction, a smile of approval on his face.

Su Cheng had never intended to repay Guan Shan's debts from the beginning.

In his opinion, although this debt of more than one million was nothing to him, if he easily paid it off for Guan Shan, he was afraid that this "father-in-law" would repeat the same mistakes and return to Hong Kong to stir up trouble again.

Su Cheng hoped even more that Guan Shan could stay away from the place of trouble and continue his life overseas, without interfering with Guan Jiahui and his own life.

Leaving Guan Jiahui alone in Hong Kong filled Su Cheng with anticipation.

He believed that as time went on, Guan Jiahui would become more and more dependent on him.

Without the burden of debt repayment, Guan Jiahui would be able to escape the struggles and hardships caused by money in her previous life. Those means she had to take for a living would become a distant memory.

In this brand new world, Guan Jiahui could breathe freely and live without worry.

The desire and pressure for money, like dust swept away by the spring breeze, no longer troubled her heart.

Her character would also become purer and more resilient as a result, no longer being eroded by external storms.

Su Cheng knew that this was the Guan Jiahui he most wanted to see.

After finishing the phone call, Guan Jiahui listened quietly to Su Cheng's conversation with Brother Wu, her heart filled with gratitude and peace of mind. When she learned that the debt collectors would no longer come to bother her, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, a long-lost smile appearing on her face.

"Brother Su Cheng, thank you!" Guan Jiahui stood up excitedly and hugged Su Cheng tightly, her voice with a hint of choking, "I was really scared. When I saw those fierce debt collectors, I didn't know what to do. Now that I have you, I feel like I have a support, and I'm not afraid of anything anymore."

Su Cheng gently hugged Guan Jiahui back, gently patting her back, giving her the most solid support. "Jiahui, don't be afraid. With me here, no one can hurt you. In the future, no matter what difficulties you encounter, remember to tell me, we will face them together, and solve them together."

"Brother Su Cheng, regarding my father's debt, if I have the ability to repay it, should I repay it for him?" Guan Jiahui raised her head, a hint of confusion and determination in her eyes.

Su Cheng pondered for a moment and said slowly, "Jiahui, it is true that children paying for their parents' debts is a part of traditional concepts. But you have to understand whether your father's debts should be borne by you is a very personal decision, and I cannot make the decision for you.

However, your father's choice this time has indeed made you see some of his behaviors clearly. If you decide to help him repay, I hope you can understand that it is not to let him escape responsibility, but for your own inner peace and a reflection of your sense of responsibility towards him.

But one thing is very important, I don't want you to tell him about this, let him always bear this guilt and owe you, this may be a warning and punishment for him.

"Of course, if you choose not to help him repay, that is also your right, and I will ensure that the creditors will not bother you again. But if you decide to repay, I will fully support you. Keep your money, Su Cheng ge will help you repay as your man. This million Hong Kong dollars is really nothing to me.

But please remember, no matter what decision you make, you must not let him know that you helped him repay the debt, this is our secret."

Su Cheng's words were full of concern and protection for Guan Jiahui. He understood that this decision was of great significance to Guan Jiahui, and he hoped that she could make a choice that did not go against her heart.

At the same time, he would also arrange for Brother Wu to communicate with the lender to ensure that Guan Shan would not know the truth that the debt had been cleared.

Guan Jiahui sat on the sofa, her hands clasped on her knees, her eyes fixed on the front, lost in deep thought.

Her brow was furrowed at times, and she shook her head lightly at times, her inner struggle and contradiction were obvious.

She felt unusually tangled about whether to help her father pay off the debt.

On the one hand, he was her father, and she had an inseparable blood relationship in her heart, wanting to share the pressure for him;

On the other hand, she also knew how much trouble and harm her father's behavior had brought her, and she was not sure whether such an effort was worth it.

Time passed slowly in silence, and Guan Jiahui's thoughts were like a tangled mess, impossible to unravel.

She weighed the pros and cons countless times in her heart, trying to find a solution that would both give her peace of mind and make her father realize something.
