45: Chapter 45 Subduing Zhang Yusheng (1) 45: Chapter 45 Subduing Zhang Yusheng (1) “Boss Zhang, you promised to pay back the fifty million you owe me today.
Why are you still trying to weasel out of it?” The burly leader pushed Zhang Yuksheng roughly, almost causing him to stumble and fall.
He steadied himself with a chair nearby.
Even though he was being bullied, one could still sense his iron resolve: “The money was borrowed by Jia Ming.
The debt has a debtor—go find him.”
You think you can fool me?
Your name is clearly written on this IOU.
I don’t care; whoever signed it pays it back!” The burly leader shook the IOU in his hand, his eyes fierce and round.
Zhang Yuksheng felt a surge of anger within him.
If he hadn’t been too trusting back then, he wouldn’t have fallen into the trap set by his ex-wife, Chen Shuhua, and his friend, Jia Ming!
He had always treated them with sincerity, but to his dismay, they had already been deceitful and were now treating him !
“I really don’t have the money right now.
Please wait some more; I’ll pay it back when I can.”
Wait for you to have money?!
Your sister is on her deathbed right now; if you had money, you would’ve taken her to the hospital long ago!
Since you’re not paying up, don’t blame me for being rude.
Boys, smash everything!
Whatever is valuable, smash it!” The burly leader also felt aggrieved; unable to find Jia Ming, he could only go after Zhang Yuksheng for the money, and to top it off, he was penniless.
Seeing this, Zhang Yuksheng hurriedly attempted to intervene, but the men who had come were all brawny practitioners, and Zhang Yuksheng was no match for them.
Far from stopping them, he was knocked to the ground and viciously kicked several times.
Zhang Yuksheng felt as if his insides had shifted from the pain.
He heard the sound of things being smashed and struggled to get up.
But in vain, the pain was too intense, and despite struggling for a long while, he achieved nothing.
Was heaven intent on destroying him?
Zhang Yuksheng felt bitter and resentful in his heart.
He had talent but had met with the wrong people.
Now, with his sister bedridden and the jade in the shop his only way out, even his last hope was on the verge of being destroyed!
Tears filled Zhang Yuksheng’s eyes as he clenched his teeth, trying to get up.
Suddenly, he remembered what the girl he met yesterday had said, “You have to believe in miracles; you have to believe good people get rewarded.” Hah, could he really witness a miracle?
As Zhang Yuksheng struggled, a pleasant and firm voice rang out.
It wasn’t loud, but it silenced everyone present.
Zhang Yuksheng strained to look up at the girl standing in the doorway, slim and graceful.
Sunlight sprinkled over her, making it seem like Zhang Yuksheng was looking at a pure angel.
He would never forget this brilliant moment in his life, the moment of his redemption, his rebirth.
“I’ll pay back the money Boss Zhang owes!” The declaration astonished everyone; they were stunned by An Yiqing’s words!
Zhang Yuksheng’s eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at An Yiqing.
What did she just say?
How could that be possible?
He opened his mouth to speak, but Yiqing’s calm and decisive voice cut through, “This is money I’m lending you, and you’re going to pay it back with your life!”
Pay it back with his life?
Zhang Yuksheng stared in shock at the girl, puzzled by the meaning of her words.
“You’re going to pay it back?
Can you even afford it?” The men looked skeptically at An Yiqing, dressed simply, somewhat in disbelief.
An Yiqing pulled out a check from her bag, scribbled a few strokes, and handed it to the burly man: “This is fifty million, redeemable at any bank in Xuandu City.
Leave the IOU and don’t come here causing trouble anymore.
Should you change your mind, you’ll end up table!” With a wind-accompanied slap, her jade hand struck, and “Bang!”, a sturdy Eight Immortals Table split instantly!
“Hiss—” The burly men gasped in shock, taking several steps backward, their eyes wide as they stared at the now fractured table.
If such force were to land on their bodies…
Shivering, they looked at An Yiqing with fear in their eyes.
