He only had four houses. He lived in one, his parents lived in one, and he only had two houses left.

One of the two houses was rented out. The validity of the rental contract was two years. If he asked the renter to move out, he would have to pay liquidated damages, which wasn't small!

No one was willing to lose money for no reason.

Unfortunately, he was left with no choice. Most importantly, he couldn't ignore this message. Since this person could send the message to him, he would quickly be in trouble if he didn't return the money. No matter what, he must do it as soon as possible.

He Fangqi was irritated, so he couldn't enjoy himself any longer. After walking out of the washroom, he told his friends that he needed to go home.

There was no one he trusted in his circle, so he couldn't tell anyone.

He could only talk about it with his wife, because one of the two available houses was under his wife's name. If he had to sell it, he needed his wife to finish the formalities.

However, his wife was a miser. If she knew he had to sell the houses, she would definitely quarrel with him.

Upon thinking of that, He Fangqi was anxious.

Before He Fangqi left, he told Jiang Zeshu to treat his friends.

However, his friends disliked Jiang Zeshu because they had all heard that Jiang Zeshu betrayed Fengyang and Fengyang almost went bankrupt. As a result, they mocked Jiang Zeshu.

They said that Jiang Zeshu cherished romance above friendship, and that he was a decisive man who could easily give up friendship.

Obviously they weren't really complimenting him.

They were business partners with He Fangqi and they seemed close, but they weren't real friends.

Therefore, they disdained He Fangqi for what he had done, but He Fangqi didn't scheme against them, so they got along well with each other for benefits.

Jiang Zeshu was angry when they laughed at him, but he had betrayed his close brothers. And they were He Fangqi's friends and had a higher status than him, so he didn't dare to say anything. It was extremely unpleasant.

They didn't separate until 12 am. Jiang Zeshu called his girlfriend and complained about it.

Jiang Zeshu's girlfriend formed a relationship with him for a purpose. She didn't love him, so she couldn't care less about his feelings.

Especially now that it was done, she was unwilling to talk to Jiang Zeshu. Therefore, when Jiang Zeshu called her and complained about it, she gave him perfunctory responses.

However, because her cousin told her not to argue and end her relationship with Jiang Zeshu, she had to tolerate it.

When He Fangqi got home, his wife was asleep, but it was urgent, so he woke her up and told her what happened.

His wife was aware that he had stolen money from their company, but she didn't know the details.

Now, he had to be honest.

Without surprise, He Fangqi's wife was mad and quarreled with him. She asked He Fangqi to think of an idea on his own since she wouldn't sell the house.

"My idea is to sell the two houses and return the money with our savings," He Fangqi said. That was the best way he could think of. What else could he do? He couldn't borrow money from everyone he knew and make it public news.

By then, it wouldn't be an affair within their company. He could be arrested by the police because he had broken the law.

He Fangqi knew it was illegal, but he still did it.

Sometimes, people were too greedy to think about the results. After succeeding several times, no one would care about the law.

They would only regret it when they were caught.

"No, you can sell the other house, but not the house under my name." He Fangqi's wife insisted.

"Why can't I? Don't forget that I paid 80% for the house. Do you think it's yours just because it's under your name? Do you want to see me arrested by stopping me from selling it? Tell me, do you want me to be in trouble?" He Fangqi questioned. Was his wife waiting for him to be caught? She was putting him in danger by refusing to sell the house!

"Nonsense! I don't…" He Fangqi's wife was mad. She didn't have that idea, but she simply didn't want to sell the house.

"If not, why do you disagree? Don't you want to see me be in trouble?" He Fangqi asked.

"I-I-I…" He Fangqi's wife was too angry to say anything.

"What? You can't lie to me after I point it out." He Fangqi believed that he was right and became even angrier. He couldn't believe that his wife didn't want him to be safe.

"I don't have that thought, but I need to ask you why you stole so much public money? Where did you spend the money? Are you keeping a mistress?" He Fangqi's wife questioned him.

She knew that He Fangqi had stolen public money from their company, but she didn't see how he used it. After all, the money was enough to keep a mistress in a single apartment, so He Fangqi's wife was suspicious

Upon hearing that, He Fangqi felt guilty. He didn't keep a mistress, but had spent a lot of money on entertainment. He had also paid for sex outside, but didn't take those women home.

However, he wouldn't admit it. "I don't. You can't say that to me. I used the money for my career. I've done everything for our family."
