Qin Hai didn't think it was too much to call such a family a total failure, and this was all because of Autumn Leaf's brother's gambling efforts. If it weren't for the fact that this house belonged to the school, perhaps there wouldn't even be a house left. Seeing the scene in front of him, Qin Hai finally understood why Autumn Leaf was so angry when she mentioned his brother.

He s.h.i.+fted his gaze and saw a portrait hanging on the wall. There was a middle-aged man inside. His face was somewhat similar to Autumn Leaf's. He wore a Chinese tunic that was very scholarly and had a scholarly air to it.

"That's my dad. He used to be a teacher in No.1 Middle School, but he's been gone for five years." Autumn Leaf said softly when she saw Qin Hai looking at the portrait on the wall. As she looked at the portrait of her father, her eyes were filled with nostalgia.

Qin Hai hurriedly stood up and caught it, saying, "Auntie, don't be so polite. We're friends, and I came here specifically to help you guys. Please quickly tell me about Brother Autumn Leaf's situation."

Subconsciously, she looked towards Autumn Leaf.

Autumn Leaf said, "Mom, Big Brother Qin is our company's security department's head. He's a very capable person, so tell him about the situation."

Autumn Leaf's mother's heart skipped a beat. She looked at Qin Hai and guessed that there was a high chance that he had a relations.h.i.+p with Autumn Leaf. Otherwise, how could this young man come so far to help them?

Who knows, this young man and Autumn Leaf might be in love!

In the past few years, because of Autumn Leaf's older brother's gamble, not only did the school's leaders and his father's colleagues completely ignore them, even their relatives and friends had all cut off all contact with the family, afraid that they would go borrow money again. How could a stranger who had nothing to do with their family help them for no reason at all?

However, when she thought about how Autumn Leaf's older brother's finger had been cut off by someone and was still locked up by those people in the casino, she couldn't help but feel happy.

Autumn Leaf's mother sighed and helplessly said, "Little Qin, I have truly let you down. The first time you came to our house, we didn't have a good welcome, and even wanted you to help us.

Qin Hai said, "Auntie, don't say that, and don't get involved with me. I'm very good friends with Autumn Leaf, so her matter is my problem. Just tell me the details. I'll definitely think of a way to save Autumn Leaf's brother."

Autumn Leaf's mother nodded, then gave a detailed account of what had happened. This fellow was originally a hoodlum in the Greenwood County city, but after a period of hesitation, he set up a casino with people joining in the gambling business. At the same time, he put out high interest loans, causing many families to lose their homes, and caused many families to lose their lives.

Qin Hai's older brother, who had been cla.s.smates with Third Hou, was dragged into Third Hou's casino after a cla.s.smate gathering. From then on, Qin Hai went all out, losing everything in the family and even finding Third Hou to borrow quite a bit of money. If it weren't for Autumn Leaf saving up a lot of money this year, Qin Hai's brother would have had his legs broken several times already.

Although she was worried about her son's safety, Autumn Leaf's mother didn't want Qin Hai, the future young master, to take the risk. After all, for the sake of Autumn Leaf's elder brother, Autumn Leaf had already sacrificed a lot.

Qin Hai smiled faintly. "It's fine. I'll go and find out about Big Brother Autumn Leaf's situation. I won't have any conflicts with them. Auntie, all of you can rest a.s.sured."

After asking where Third Hou was, Qin Hai was prepared to meet this fellow. "Big brother Qin, wait for me. I'll go with you."

Then, he pushed open the door and walked out of the house. He descended the stairs and drove in the direction that Autumn Leaf and the others had indicated, directly towards the Dreamsky Lake Hotel where Hou Lao San was staying.

Autumn Leaf watched Qin Hai drive away from the balcony. She stood on the balcony for a long time, her heart filled with worry.

Autumn Leaf stared blankly for a moment. Immediately, her mother's words made her change her mind. She shyly said, "Mom, don't speak nonsense. I'm only friends with Department Head Qin."

"He's really just a friend!" Autumn Leaf's face was flushed red as she stomped her feet, afraid that the neighbors next door would hear her. She hurriedly returned to her room.

Autumn Leaf's mother followed up, "Ye, Mom knows you're shameless, but you're not young anymore. It's time for us to get into a relations.h.i.+p, you can't be like your brother, not having a family even after you're in your thirties. Your brother's life can be considered to be ruined. Mom doesn't want you to delay yourself like he did; otherwise, if I were to die in the future, how would I be able to see your father?! "

Speaking of her son, who had made her worry so much, Autumn Leaf's mother couldn't help but sigh, her face filled with helplessness.

Autumn Leaf turned and hugged her, comforting her, "Mom, don't worry. Our family will definitely get better, we definitely will!"
