C1 Poor Trash

"Chen Yang, take away our washing water."

On the sofa sat two extremely fascinating and charming women. They had just finished soaking their feet and were now lazily leaning against the sofa.

These two women were Chen Yang's wife and her best friend.

Hearing his wife's words, Chen Yang bent down and poured away the two basins of foot-washing water. He didn't dare to complain. He was just a matrilocal son-in-law who had no status at all.

He had been married for two years but still had no status in the family.

His wife and mother-in-law often scolded him for minor matters. If he dared to retort, he would be kicked out of the house in minutes.

In this house, Chen Yang's status was even worse than that of a dog.

He had been married to Su Miao for two years, but he never even touched her hand! Every night, Chen Yang could only sleep on the floor because not only did Su Miao hate him, but she despised him wholeheartedly. She didn't even see him like a man!

Chen Yang's daily job was to do laundry, cook, and clean the house. Not only that, he had to prepare three meals a day on time.

A few days ago, he accidentally added more salt to some dishes. He was scolded by his wife for half an hour.

One night, Chen Yang coughed in the middle of the night and woke Su Miao.

Su Miao directly kicked him to the ground and told him to get out of the room.

That day was their first anniversary. There was no candlelight dinner and no tenderness! That kick also made Chen Yang's heart turn cold.

After two years of insults and humiliations, he had long been used to this kind of life.

He could blame nobody but himself since he was the one who chose to be the matrilocal son-in-law.

The most painful thing was that, after two years together, he actually fell in love with Su Miao. Even though she always ignored him and kept calling him trash!

"Am I suffering from Stockholm syndrome?" Chen Yang laughed self-deprecatingly.

As the Eldest Young Master of the Chen family, which was the largest family in Jiangnan, it was ironic that he had to beg a woman.

Two years ago, Chen Yang spent 20 million to buy 15% of Jiangnan Energy Group shares.

At the time, hundreds of people in the Chen family criticized Chen Yang, saying he lost the family's money by fraudulently investing the 20 million.

Some people also said that he deliberately embezzled the family funds, maliciously intending to enrich his own pockets.

After that, it was a unanimous decision to expel Chen Yang from the family. Not only that, but his parents were also expelled and had their names removed from the family tree!

During these two years, Chen Yang experienced the coldness and warmth of human relationships. Those friends who called him 'brother' in the past now all distanced themselves from him.

Chen Yang, who had been expelled from the family without any money, had no choice but to become a matrilocal son-in-law to survive!

Not even his wife, Su Miao, knew about it.

"Miao, your husband is really obedient!" Her best friend Lee Mi said.

Su Miao laughed coldly. "So what if he is obedient? I feel disgusted when I see him. Other girls all marry someone rich or a rich second generation. My fate is not good, so I can only marry such trash. Look at him. Poor and miserable, he looks like a hillbilly. Tomorrow is the Su family's annual meeting, and I really don't want to bring him there."

Lee Mi looked at Chen Yang. He really looked as poor as Su Miao had said. He was too badly dressed.

Lee Mi did not know what to say, so she laughed and changed the topic, "Miao. Let's not talk about him anymore. I heard that there are some problems with your company recently?"

Su Miao nodded and said, "We have invested in two restaurants in the last two months and lost a few million. Now that there is a problem with the company's operations, we need 8 million. If we do not find an investor within a week, we will have to sell other assets under the company."

Lee Mi looked worriedly at Su Miao, "Eight million is a lot of money. Who would spend so much money to support you?"

Su Miao did not answer but turned her head and looked at Chen Yang eavesdropping from the sidelines. "Chen Yang, who told you to listen here? Go and wash my clothes."

"And my skirt, in my lockbox, wash it too." Lee Mi said.

After Chen Yang heard their orders, he put the clothes into the washing machine.

Thinking about tomorrow's reunion, he washed his own clothes as well.

Just as he put the clothes into the drum, his phone suddenly rang.

He opened it and saw a text message.

The phone number on the top of the screen was 138×××8888.

This was the Chen family's number.

Chen Yang opened the message and was stunned.

"Young Master, please help the Chen family. Its financial chain is broken. We need your help!"

"The family's financial chain is broken, but what does it have to do with me? Is this a joke?"

"Two years ago, he and his parents were driven out. Now he has nothing left, and his pockets are empty. What is the use of looking for him?"

Chen Yang frowned. His phone rang again, but this time it was not a message, but a phone call.

He answered.

Before he could speak, the butler's urgent voice came over the phone. "Young Master, I beg you to help the family. The Jiangnan Energy Shares you bought two years ago increased in value by a multiple times. Please, help us. If you don't help, our family will go bankrupt!"

"What the heck are you saying?"

Chen Yang almost threw away his phone. He hung up and searched the storeroom for a long time. Finally, he found a black bank card in a corner.

When he married into the Tang family, the card was discarded in the storeroom and remained there for two years.

This card was issued when he was still the young master of the Chen family. It showed his identity, and each card had 24 hours of exclusive customer service. He hurriedly picked up his phone and dialed the service number!

"Hello, Mr. Chen. Welcome to your 24-hour personal assistant. Is there anything I can help you with?" A woman's sweet voice came over the phone.

"Yes, quickly, help me check the balance."

"Okay, please wait a moment." The personal assistant said unhurriedly.

In just a few seconds, the voice spoke again, "Mr. Chen, the balance on your card is quite large, and it is exceeding my access. Please come with your ID card to the bank's VIP counter to check."

Chen Yang hung up before she finished speaking.

At this moment, there was a buzzing in his head, and his heart was beating fast as if it was going to jump out of his chest the next moment.

"The number is too large and exceeds the authority to check!" From the day he was kicked out of the family for using the money for investment, it had been two years, but it actually gave him such a big surprise two years later! He really wanted to know how much money was on this card!

"Miao, look at Chen Yang calling to check the balance on his card!" Lee Mi couldn't help laughing.

Su Miao shook her head and smiled, "I give him 200 yuan as pocket money every day. After two years, he must have saved some money."

"Miao, it's like raising a dog." As soon as Lee Mi finished talking, the two looked at each other and smiled.

Chen Yang ran over excitedly and looked at his wife. "Your company urgently needs eight million. Do you want me to help you?"

"Haha..." Lee Mi laughed until her stomach hurt. She looked at him and said, "Chen Yang, do you know how much eight million is? Miao only gives you 200 yuan every day. If you can take out 8 million, I will call you Daddy."

"Is that so?" Chen Yang smiled. "Then remember what you said!"

At this moment, Su Miao could not restrain herself. Not only did Chen Yang usually look poor, but now he was even bragging in front of her best friend. He really was a pile of mud that couldn't support the wall. She waved impatiently. "You better go and make the bed in the room. Don't bother us here."

Chen Yang simply said "OK". Then he turned and left the room.

That night, Chen Yang was so excited that he could not sleep. This sudden good news was like a dream.

He must personally go to the bank tomorrow to check the balance!
