In Hong Kong, we build a global business empire

Guan Shan is considered a senior veteran in the Hong Kong entertainment industry. He was already very popular in Hong Kong in the 1950s and enjoys a very high reputation in the film and television industry.

Because of this, Lin Haoran was very curious about how much debt Guan Jiahui's father owed.

More importantly, from Li Weidong's words, Lin Haoran learned that a group of gangsters were collecting the debt.

This usually means that the money Guan Shan borrowed was likely usury.

Formal banks usually do not adopt this debt collection method.

Besides, Guan Shan is also a well-known figure in Hong Kong.

It’s just strange that he would actually borrow money from loan sharks to do business?

This was completely beyond Lin Haoran's expectations.

"They said that my dad owed 180 million, but my dad called home and said he only owed 120 million." Guan Jiahui answered while crying.

Lin Haoran nodded gently and said comfortingly: "Let's go home first."

Ten minutes later, the Rolls-Royce drove back to the villa on Shi Xundao.

For Guan Jiahui, returning to Lin Haoran obviously made her feel relieved and she was no longer afraid of someone coming to her house.

The two went up to the third floor and sat down. Lin Haoran asked, "So what are you going to do next?"

More than one million Hong Kong dollars is just a negligible amount of money for Lin Haoran, but he will not easily repay the debt for Guan Shan.

"I don't know either. When my dad left Hong Kong, I was still in school and knew nothing about it. When I returned home, he called me and told me to be careful in Hong Kong. But in this situation, where can a girl like me hide no matter how careful I am? I called you because I had no choice!" At this point, Guan Jiahui's tone revealed obvious dissatisfaction with her father.

"Then don't worry about him. I'm here, no one dares to touch you." Lin Haoran comforted with a smile.

After all, Guan Jiahui is his woman now, and he naturally won't allow her to be bullied in any way.

"Brother Haoran, can you help me pay back this money? As long as you agree, I am willing to do anything for you. My dad can't keep carrying this debt!" Guan Jiahui suddenly looked straight at Lin Haoran, her eyes full of pleading.

Guan Jiahui was very clear about Lin Haoran and the gap between her and him was too big.

As the richest person in Hong Kong, she knew that her qualifications were difficult to match.

In addition, she was afraid that her father would worry or object after knowing her relationship with Lin Haoran, so Guan Jiahui had always kept this secret carefully and had never revealed her relationship with Lin Haoran to anyone.

But her heart was also full of confusion. Although she was very clear that there was an insurmountable gap between her and Lin Haoran, the richest man in Hong Kong, and that it was almost impossible for them to have a real home in the future, she was unwilling to give up this relationship easily.

Growing up in a family where both parents are members of the Hong Kong entertainment industry, Guan Jiahui has seen more of the vicissitudes of life than her peers since she was a child.

Therefore, she knew better than anyone how rare an opportunity it was to be able to rely on a strong backer like Lin Haoran.

Even though she knew that the possibility of becoming Lin Haoran's legal wife was slim, Guan Jiahui never thought of giving up.

She silently played the role of an underground lover, willingly staying by Lin Haoran's side, cherishing this hard-earned support.

Although she is only 19 years old, Guan Jiahui is already much more mature than her peers.

Lin Haoran stared at Guan Jiahui, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

He thought deeply and said slowly: "Jiahui, I can help you solve this problem, but you have to agree to one condition of mine."

When Guan Jiahui heard this, her heart tightened, but then a glimmer of hope arose.

She raised her head and looked at the famous Hong Kong tycoon next to her, waiting for his next words.

"I want you to be my eternal lover. Remember, once you agree, you must be loyal to me and not have another man. You should be fully aware of the consequences of breaking this promise." Lin Haoran's words were very overbearing and ruthless, and did not allow for any negotiation.

Guan Jiahui was stunned for a moment when she heard this.

She had never expected that Lin Haoran would put forward such harsh conditions. Once she nodded, it would mean that she would have to tie her entire future closely to this man. More importantly, she would completely give up the right to choose other partners.

She was very clear about Lin Haoran's methods and abilities, and knew that his threats were not empty words. If he broke his promise, the consequences would be something she could not bear.

Previously in Mong Kok, Lin Haoran and she had been bullied by 13K thugs, but in the end 13K not only admitted their mistakes, but also vowed to follow Lin Haoran's lead in the future.

Guan Jiahui was very clear about this incident.

She knew very well that even the powerful 13K society in Hong Kong had to bow down to Lin Haoran. If she agreed to his request but then regretted it, the consequences would be disastrous.

Therefore, faced with Lin Haoran's request, Guan Jiahui fell into a long silence.

She felt mixed emotions and her thoughts were in a mess.

The thought of the huge debt her father was carrying was like a huge rock pressing on her heart.

The father is obviously unable to repay the debt now, otherwise he would not have chosen to flee and even ran away without taking his own daughter with him.

This determination and helplessness made her feel both pain and hatred.

Furthermore, even though she now has Lin Haoran's protection, which gives her a sense of security in Hong Kong, as long as the debt is not settled, she will be like living under a shadow, always worried that the creditor will come to her door one day and break this rare peace.

After weighing the pros and cons, Guan Jiahui's heart began to waver.

She understood that perhaps agreeing to Lin Haoran's request was the only way to resolve the current predicament.

Although this meant sacrificing her freedom and future, she seemed to have no choice under the pressure of reality. Besides, she really liked the feeling of being with Lin Haoran.

She understood that now she had no better choice than to agree to Lin Haoran.

"Brother Haoran, I..." Guan Jiahui's voice trembled a little, but she finally said the word firmly, "Okay."

Lin Haoran smiled slightly, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

He gently held Guan Jiahui's hand and said softly: "Jiahui, don't worry, I will treat you well. I will help you settle this debt, and I will also let you live a better life in Hong Kong."

"Yeah!" Guan Jiahui nodded softly.

Now that you've agreed, this will be easy.

The reason why he made such a request was because he understood Guan Jiahui's character.

He didn't want her to turn around and throw herself into the arms of another man after he helped her solve her debt, making him the one who got taken advantage of.

Therefore, if you want him to help pay back the money and settle this matter, how can it be possible without paying some price!

Thus, a silent agreement was reached between the two, a complicated deal about feelings, debts and the future.

There is no need to sign any contract for this kind of thing.

If Guan Jiahui really broke the contract herself, he had plenty of ways to make her bear the consequences of breaking the contract.

"Do you know who your father owes money to?" Lin Haoran continued to ask.

"Yes, I heard from my dad that they are from Jinjiang Financial Company. This group of people has great influence in the underworld." Guan Jiahui replied.

Lin Haoran nodded and made a phone call in front of Guan Jiahui.

"Help me check the specific details of Guan Shan's debt to Jinjiang Financial Company." As soon as the call was connected, Lin Haoran gave concise and clear instructions.

"Got it, boss, I'll call you back within ten minutes!" The head of the intelligence department responded quickly and respectfully.

Nowadays, the intelligence department is becoming more and more mature, and there is a dedicated person in charge to coordinate various affairs. In this way, Cui Zilong can be freed from the heavy tasks and focus on more core work.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Haoran turned to look at Guan Jiahui and saw that she was silent, with a hint of complexity and struggle in her eyes.

He roughly guessed in his heart and understood what it meant to her to agree to such a condition. Her silence at this moment might be a reflection of her inner struggle.

So he chose to give her some space and was not in a hurry to break this rare tranquility.

Less than ten minutes later, the phone rang again. It was obvious that investigating such a small matter was not a difficult task for the intelligence department.

"Boss, I have already checked. Guan Shan initially borrowed about 50 Hong Kong dollars from a bank, but since he was unable to repay it when it was due, he began to use financial institutions to repay the previous loan by borrowing from Peter to pay Paul.

When he arrived at Jinjiang Financial Company, it was already the fifth financial institution from which he had borrowed money. After the interest continued to accumulate, the total amount of money he owed to Jinjiang Financial Company had reached HK$120 million.

What’s worse is that after the payment was overdue, Jinjiang Finance Company imposed a penalty of 60 yuan on him, which was the reason why Guan Shan ran away. In addition, it is worth mentioning that Jinjiang Finance Company is a medium-sized community in Hong Kong and has close ties with the 13K gang. "The head of the intelligence department reported in detail.

"I understand. Thank you for your hard work!" Lin Haoran responded and hung up the phone.

Lin Haoran was on speakerphone, so Guan Jiahui at the side could hear everything clearly.

"What kind of business is your dad doing?" Lin Haoran asked curiously.

Logically, Guan Shan is also a well-known movie star in Hong Kong and he can make a lot of money from filming. How could it come to this?

"I don't know. My dad never tells me about his business!" Guan Jiahui shook her head.

Since Guan Jiahui didn’t know, Lin Haoran didn’t ask any more questions and turned around to make another call.

This time, he called Hu Xuyong of 13K.

Since that society has a complicated relationship with 13K, that would be the best.

"Mr. Lin, do you have any instructions for me?" Hu Xuyong asked respectfully after answering the phone.

Now, given Lin Haoran's status in Hong Kong's business community, no matter how rebellious Hu Xuyong is, he dare not show it in front of Lin Haoran.

He was a figure that even the British financial groups had to bow to. What were these gangsters to him?
Lin Haoran briefly told Hu Xuyong about Guan Shan’s debt.

"I will transfer the 120 million to you later. Please make sure to handle it properly. But remember, don't let Guan Shan know that the debt has been paid off. Do you understand?" Lin Haoran said finally.

As for the penalty for breach of contract? He did not mention it. He would give what should be given and would not give what should not be given.

"Mr. Lin, leave this matter to me. I guarantee that I will handle it in an orderly manner! As for the 120 million, Mr. Lin, you don't have to worry about it. I will handle it and they won't dare to bother me anymore." Hu Xuyong responded confidently.

"I will pay what I should pay. Do you think I care about 120 million Hong Kong dollars? It's settled. Thank you for your hard work this time. I'll treat you to tea when I'm free some other day!" Lin Haoran said directly.

"It's not hard. This is what I should do. I will definitely handle this matter properly for you, Mr. Lin!" Hu Xuyong said solemnly.

"Okay, thank you for your help. That's it for now!" Lin Haoran said with a smile and then hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone with Hu Xuyong, Lin Haoran called the finance department of Huanyu Investment Company and asked them to transfer 120 million Hong Kong dollars to Hu Xuyong.

Using HK$120 million to buy Guan Jiahui's lifelong indenture contract was very worthwhile in Lin Haoran's opinion. (End of this chapter)
