Chapter: 48
His mother-in-law was standing at the front of the crowd, holding a banner and shouting with a furious face: "Trash Huaxin, scam platform! We're fighting for our rights, getting back my blood-sweat money!"
Ye Chen hurriedly walked up to her and asked, "Mom, you called me over, what's going on?"
Just as he was speaking, the sound of slogans from behind him again, with elderly people shouting loudly, making people's eardrums resonate.
Ma Ran pulled Ye Chen aside and told him to take his place, then instructed, "Come, replace me yelling this slogan, I've been screaming for an hour now, my throat is hoarse."
Ye Chen didn't understand what was going on, but he could only follow a few elderly people protesting, shouting slogans, and occasionally asking the person next to him about something. It wasn't until then that he realized what was happening.
It turned out that Huaxin Insurance Company, which they operated, was dealing with some extremely high-yield insurance products.
These group of elderly folks were attracted by the high returns, and each person bought a lot of insurance products under this company's name, becoming their customers.
Normally, it would be time for the dividends now, but who could have expected that when these group of elderly folks came to collect their dividends, they found that the entire company was shut down, with only a few employees left at the door, trying to shoo people away with poor excuses.
This group of elderly folks finally realized that they had been scammed and got ripped off.
It's no wonder that their mother-in-law rushed over in a hurry, asking them to join her in seeking justice together.
Thinking about this, Ye Chen's face turned red with anger, and he couldn't help but ask his mother-in-law, "Mom, how much money did you invest?"
Ma Ran's eyes were blazing with anxiety as she said, "They said it was a guaranteed return on investment, one for all, my head is spinning just thinking about it, so I spent all our savings on their products......"
Ye Chen's eyes widened in shock as he exclaimed, "What? You spent all our savings on insurance?"
Ma Ran's anger boiled over, and she started yelling at Ye Chen, "Are you trying to humiliate me? Do you think I'm not good enough for you?!"
As she continued scolding Ye Chen, she said, "If you had any sense, would I even have bought their insurance products? It's not like the insurance can support our old age, what more do you expect from a useless person like you?"
This guy, he couldn't even take care of his own family, and now he dares to look down on things with such ease?!
"Then she turned to Ye Chen and said, 'Tell me, continue shouting slogans for me, don't stop for a second!'"
Ye Chen had no choice but to nod his head and say, 'Okay, Mom.'"
At that time, several old ladies walked over, scrutinizing Ye Chen from top to bottom before asking Ma Ran, 'Ran sister, is this your son-in-law?'"
As they were talking, they also swept their gaze over Ye Chen's clothes, shaking their heads in disdain and saying, 'How can he look so pitiful? He's not even as good as my own son-in-law.'"
'Yes, these clothes are really too shabby! They're not even half as good as mine!'"
A few people were chatting casually, with mocking remarks slipping in between the lines, making it especially painful to hear."
Ye Chen didn't seem to care at all, and just let a bunch of old ladies chat away while he thought about how they had lost their life savings and now had nothing to show for it."
Ma Ran's heart was burning with anger as she looked at Ye Chen, growing more and more displeased. She blurted out, 'Watch this, I'll let my daughter divorce him in a few days! And get someone better!'"
Ye Chen smiled coldly inside. 'Quick marriage to a rich husband? You should include all those rich second-generation kids from Gold Mountain too, but they're not even as good as one of my fingers.'" JrNovels.com
