In Beijing, there was a family, and the story was full of twists and turns and pain. Uncle Lu, an ordinary retired old man, once looked at his two sons with great pride, the eldest son Lu Zhen, a businessman, and the youngest son Lu Feng, a taxi driver. Their lives, though ordinary, are peaceful and full of family warmth. However, a sudden storm is about to break the silence.
Lu Zhen's phone call broke Uncle Lu's peaceful life. He falsely claimed to have cancer and was in dire need of money for treatment. Uncle Lu, with compassion, raised 200,000 yuan for his son without hesitation. But what he didn't know was that Lu Zhen was actually mired in a debt of 13 million. In order to help his son, Uncle Lu sold a property worth 5.3 million. However, this is just the tip of the iceberg.
Lu Zhen's debts are snowballing. In order to raise more money, Uncle Lu had to consider selling their family's other properties. These properties were originally the wealth he had worked so hard to accumulate for future generations. Now, they're a lifesaver.
In this debt storm, Uncle Lu's life has become difficult. He used to live on the income from renting out his properties, but now he has to sell them. He and his wife's pension is far from enough to cover their daily expenses.
Uncle Lu's youngest son, Lu Feng, was furious when he learned the true situation of his brother. Originally peaceful family relationships began to crack due to debt problems. Lu Feng is adamantly opposed to selling his property to help his brother pay off his debts. Family strife intensified, eventually leading to a breakdown in the relationship between father and son.
There is no happy ending to this story. The relationship between Uncle Lu and Lu Feng broke down, and although Lu Zhen had the will to repay his debts, he was powerless to return to heaven. Uncle Lu, a once proud father, ends up feeling powerless and hopeless under the weight of life. Family, once the most important part of his life, has now become an eternal pain in his heart.
