Old Master Black picked up the call right there in the living room in front of everyone. Peter Gingery and Bright Sampton just quieted down but didnāt pay attention to Old Master Blackās call.
Meanwhile, Brooke Black and Jane Sampson were almost nervously tense, focusing on Old Master Black, with their hearts hanging tight, wishing they could glue their ears to Old Master Blackās mobile phone.
Bright Sampton and Peter Gingery, clueless about the emotional fluctuations of the two beside them, were like three-year-old children, continuing their back-and-forth banter in lowered voices.
Brooke Black couldnāt help but frown and rolled her eyes at Peter Gingery, sniping at him, "Now I finally understand why youāve been single for so many years and nobody wants you."
???!!!
Peter Gingery stared at Brooke Black with a shocked expression, "Mom, are you really my mom?"
Bright Sampton stifled a laugh from the side.
"Iāve been single for many years because I love being single?" Peter Gingery said frankly, "I enjoy the pleasures of the single life."
"Enjoy? I think youāre just pretending to enjoy it, arenāt you? Nearly thirty years old, and youāre still yakking like a crow. Even I, as your mom, find you annoying." Brooke Black rubbed her forehead, "How did I end up giving birth to such a loudmouth?"
Mom? Are you really my mom?
Peter Gingery had an expression of wanting to say something as he stared at Brooke Black. After a few seconds, he turned to look at Old Master Black and snorted, "Iām single, not my fault, itās because Old Master favors my brother. My brother is still studying, and Old Master has already found a wife for him. Iām already this big, and Old Master hasnāt arranged a good wife for me. My requirements arenāt high, just like little Jane in appearance, and a bit gentler in personality than Jane would be nice. And she should best have little Janeās culinary skills, that would be perfect."
"Then you might as well plan to stay single for the rest of your life." Brooke Black immediately lost the desire to push him towards marriage.
Previously, during Chinese New Year, there were relatives who asked about Peter Gingeryās personal matters. At that time, Brooke Black also felt that Peter Gingery was at the age where marriage discussions should start, though not urgently, but itās a time to meet more girls.
Hearing Peter Gingeryās list of demands now, Brooke Black immediately dismissed the idea of having relatives introduce girls to him.
This troublemaker is better left for his future girlfriend to handle.
Over there, Old Sir had already finished the call. He beckoned Jane Sampson and Brooke Black to follow him into the study to talk.
Watching the three leave, Peter Gingery muttered, "All secretive, I wonder what theyāre cooking up behind my back again."
Bright Sampton looked at Peter Gingery with his usual demeanor, and couldnāt help but think to himself, Brother Gingery sure has a big heart.
In the study, Old Master Black shared what he just learned on the phone with Jane Sampson and Brooke Black.
"Through the game account login, we indeed found the identity information and geographical location of the mobile phoneās owner," said Old Master Black. "The address is not in the original city, but in the provincial capital city just over a hundred kilometers away. The mobile numberās owner is an employee of an investment company, holding the position of General Manager. This investment company claims to do financial investment, but in reality, itās a lending company."
In other words, itās a company that operates under the guise of private lending, or to put it more clearly, itās essentially an usury-based illegal company.
