Three o'clock in the morning.

It was a time when everything was quiet.

The hall on the first floor of the Yu family villa was brightly lit.

Yu Ziang knelt at Jinlan's feet, hugged her knees with both hands, and said in panic, "Mom! Mom! Save me! Save me!"

Jinlan looked at her son lying on her knees and felt dizzy for a moment.

This scene looks so familiar!

Not long ago, his sister also hugged her with a helpless look on her face and asked her for help.

Unfortunately, her guess was confirmed, and Jinlan didn't know whether to praise herself for her accurate intuition or hate her son for not living up to her expectations.

But no matter what, the first thing she had to do was to make Yu Ziang shut his mouth.

"If you want to wake your dad, then just be louder."

Yu Ziang's eyes widened, he covered his mouth with his hands, and shook his head in horror.

No matter how stupid he was, he knew this and he must never let Yu Deyan know about it.

Otherwise, a beating would be considered good enough, and he would definitely receive a more severe punishment.

Seeing him calm down, Jin Lan said coldly: "Now, tell me everything you have done recently. Remember, you can't hide anything, otherwise no one can save you!"

Jinlan's tone was very stern.

Yu Ziang nodded repeatedly.

He was so frightened by what happened tonight that he had no ideas of his own at all. He just did whatever Jin Lan said.

So, he told Jin Lan everything that had happened recently, even how much money he had made from gambling on stones and how he had lost it, without hiding a single thing.

When Jin Lan heard that Yu Ziang not only lost the 200,000 yuan she had just transferred to him, but also borrowed another 2 million yuan in high-interest loans from Boss Sun in the underground warehouse, she wanted to strangle Yu Ziang to death and pretend that she had never given birth to this son.

"Mom, listen to me. I, I didn't mean it! Originally, I had already started to turn the tables. I bet 200,000 on a piece of good quality jadeite, and made 500,000! I thought my luck was back, and I wanted to make more money and pay you back the money I owed you last time. I couldn't help it, so I..."

Yu Ziang's voice became smaller and smaller under Jin Lan's fierce gaze.

He grabbed his hair hard, feeling that everything that happened tonight was just a dream.

It was obvious that he could turn the tables soon, but he failed again, and it was a huge failure!

He was really obsessed at that time, so when Boss Sun offered to lend him money to gamble on stones, he agreed without hesitation.

And the final result is obvious.

Not only did he go bankrupt in gambling again, he also owed Boss Sun two million yuan and left an IOU with his handprint.

At this moment, Yu Ziang wished he had a time machine that would allow him to travel back to the past and stop himself.

"Even the experts hired by your father's company don't dare to say that they can win nine out of ten times. Where do you get the confidence that you are better than those experts? Huh?"

Jin Lan never expected that her son would become addicted to gambling on stones.

Gambling on stones, gambling on stones, the word "gambling" is enough to illustrate its harm.

It can range from ruining the family's fortune to ruining one's family.

The person Jinlan hates the most is also a gambler.

Because her father is a gambler.

When she was very young, her father was still a good father who would carry her on his back for riding on a big horse, buy her small cakes after getting his salary, and braid her hair in a clumsy way.

Until he was dragged into a gambling game by his so-called friends, things got out of control from then on.

The gentle man began to drink, commit domestic violence, and stay out all night, and her family's living conditions changed drastically.

She remembered the most difficult times when her mother took her to pick up rotten vegetable leaves that others didn't want in the vegetable market, rummaged through the trash cans in the food court for leftover food, and picked up waste on the street before dawn.

Jinlan had suffered a lot in the past, so she didn't want to suffer again, nor did she want her children to suffer.

The reason why she clung to Yu Deyan so desperately was because Yu Deyan could provide them with a good life and make them become superior people.

But Yu Ziang didn't cherish the living environment that she had painstakingly created at all, and even wanted to destroy it!

Jin Lan looked at Yu Ziang with eyes as cold as ice.

"Mom, why do you look at me like this? I'm scared! I know I was wrong, please forgive me! Forgive me this last time!"

Yu Ziang burst into tears.

Worried that the noise would be too loud and wake up Yu Deyan, he bit his lips hard, his entire face covered with tears and snot.

Jinlan finally softened her heart.

This was the child she gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy. He was the continuation of her bloodline and the most crucial chess piece for her to become the mistress of the Yu family.

She absolutely could not allow herself to fail just before she was about to accomplish her goal.

Jin Lan raised her lips to a gentle smile again, helped Yu Ziang up, and then took out a tissue from the tissue box to wipe the tears and snot from Yu Ziang's face.

She wiped it very carefully, with no disdain in her eyes, only deep concern.

Yu Ziang was stunned for a moment when he looked at his gentle and loving mother.

"Zi'ang, Mom is really sad.

Your sister Yutang has been an excellent and sensible child since she was young. She has never caused me and your father any trouble, but you have always been the most favorite child in our hearts.

No matter what you want, we will do our best to satisfy you. You know that your father and I have high hopes for you and will hand over the Yu family to you in the future. There is also an outsider in the family who is eyeing you and wants to compete with you for the family property. Why can't you make progress and fight for me?

Mom gets tired, too."

When dealing with Yu Ziang, you cannot use too harsh means, as it can easily trigger a rebellious mentality.

So Jinlan used both reasoning and emotional appeal to persuade him.

Whether he can listen or not, at least he won't be angry.

Jinlan’s prediction was very accurate.

After hearing these words, Yu Ziang's eyes were filled with crystal tears.

He always thought that his father and mother loved his sister the most because she was very smart and capable, and was his idol whom he would never be able to catch up with.

It turns out that he is the child that his parents value.

Yu Ziang was both delighted and felt extremely guilty.

He lowered his head and said, "Mom, I'm sorry."

"You are a good child if you admit your mistakes and correct them. Mom can forgive you this time, but you must agree to one condition of mom." Jin Lan said in a gentle voice.

"Okay, I agree." Yu Ziang agreed without thinking.

"Don't touch gambling stones anymore, okay?"

"Okay!" Yu Ziang gritted his teeth and nodded vigorously.

"Very good, since you agreed, then I feel relieved. You can go back first, and I will find a way to deal with the two million."

After Jinlan coaxed Yu Ziang back to the room, her face suddenly turned gloomy.

Two million is not a small sum of money. Where should she go to fill the gap of two million this time?

It was almost four in the morning when I returned to the bedroom.

Jinlan, however, was not sleepy at all.
