Chapter 4725
At this moment, the old house of the Chen family.
Sham Shui Po is a neighborhood in Hong Kong. This is an old house.
There is only over 30 square meters of usable space.
Owning a house of more than 30 square meters is already more than many people can afford in Hong Kong,
where every inch of land is precious.
It wasn’t uncommon for families of five or even eight to cram into coffin rooms of less than 10 square meters
in Kowloon Walled City back then.
In comparison, the Chen family’s house in Sham Shui Po is considered to have escaped the title of slum.
Hogan grew up here as a child. The family later moved to Hong Kong’s bustling city center after his father
made a fortune making roast goose.
Hogan later became a well-known professional manager in Hong Kong, helping Gerard to make a lot of

Hogan’s family was well-off when he left Hong Kong, but because he offended Gerard, the whole family was
implicated.
It was difficult for his younger siblings to find jobs, and even love, marriage, general social interactions were
greatly affected.
The business of the family including roast goose shop also plummeted.
Long time ago, in order to provide for his younger brothers and sisters to study, as well as to treat his parents and
maintain the family,
The Chen family’s terraced house had long been sold.
Fortunately, Hogan’s old father is very nostalgic. Even after he developed, he did not put Sham Shui Po on sale.
Thus the old house was sold, so the family finally had a place to stay.
Hogan’s two younger sisters, without exception, were married to migrant workers in Hong Kong.
The reason for this was that local people in Hong Kong knew that their brother had offended Gerard, so no one
dared to marry him.
And Hogan’s younger brother Azur is still lucky.
His girlfriend who he has been in love with for many years has always been with him.
Right now, this old house is inhabited by Azur’s family of three and the old lady.
Although it is already very crowded, Azur still separates out a separate room for the old mother,
And also installed a window air conditioner for the old mother, so that she could have a nice place to live.
However, when Hogan suddenly came back, the cramped house was stretched all of a sudden.
After the family came back here after visiting the grave of Father Chen, the old lady said to Hogan a little ashamed:
“Hogan, the house is too crowded, you will stay at the hotel next door tonight.
The hotel is opened by your childhood playmate, Uncle Liang.”
“Hogan from my family, he has often come to help at home over the years, and often asks about your news.”
“You should stay there for one night first. Tomorrow, Mom will ask Azur to buy a bunk bed and change the bed in
Mom’s room.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Then you will live in the same room with Mom!”
Hogan said hurriedly: “Mom, you don’t have to worry, these few days I will accompany you during the day,”
“Stay at the hotel at night, and after these few days, I will go to work.”
The old lady said distressedly: “You finally returned home after so many years,” “Don’t worry about working
immediately, take a good rest first!”
Hogan explained: “Mom, Young Master Wade has helped me so much, while I still have a little bit more.”
“With my meager power, as long as he doesn’t dislike it, I plan to work for him in the future.”
“Most of his business is in the mainland, and if he needs me, I may go to work in the mainland.”
After speaking, Hogan took out from his carry-on luggage some 30,000 US dollars in cash and handed it to
his younger brother Azur.
He said, “Azu, I haven’t saved much money all these years.”
“I brought back the US dollar deposit, you keep this money to subsidize the family.”
Azur quickly refused: “Brother, this is your own hard-earned money, how can I collect it?”
“Besides, my income is very stable now, and mom is recovering.”
“Now, there will be no need for high medical expenses in the future, you can keep this money for yourself!”
