Chapter 137 The Uproar Begins (3/3)

Meanwhile, in Xincheng.

Mei Mengcheng was at home, anxious and restless. He had talked about starting a business with those "fair-weather friends," investing money into it, but months had passed without any sign of profit. He was frustrated and angry. Worse, because he lacked the necessary funds, he had taken out multiple loans. The repayment period for these loans had long since passed, yet he was still unable to pay them back.

The phone calls from lenders were incessant, hounding him like the Grim Reaper, and Mei Mengcheng had no choice but to turn off his phone to avoid them.
