Grandma’s, rich people’s lives are just different, drinking fine tea and cracking seeds, this life is simply too good.
While spitting melon seeds onto the ground, he urged Dianzi, "Dianzi, hurry up, someone will come soon."
"I’ll definitely speed up," Dianzi said, chuckling as he lunged at Xiaofeng.
Xiaofeng dodged in fright and grabbed a nearby chair, her voice stuttering as she looked at him, "Don’t come over... If you come over, I’ll smash this chair at you."
"So, Xiaofeng, you might as well save your strength. I’m telling you, this guy is tough as nails, that chair in your hands won’t do a thing to him. Don’t believe me? Try smashing it. Remember, many have tried with large bricks and sticks, and he still came out of it all right." Dianzi was indeed Dianzi, having endured countless inhuman treatments, a mere girl like her was no match for him.
"Hehe, exactly." Dianzi drooled a bit, "A big chair can’t trouble me."
"Don’t come any closer, or I’ll scream," Xiaofeng’s voice was tearful, "I have no quarrel with you, why must you do this to me? Are you after money? If it’s money you want, I can give it to you."
"Money?" Zhang Dacai really got interested, "How much can you give?"
"As much as you name." Xiaofeng had glanced at her passbook the last time, and the balance had given her quite a shock.
She never knew she could be that rich, "Uncles, let me go, and I’ll give you money. Think about it, with money, not just one, whatever you want, ten even, and others will even serve you well and it’s not illegal. Today, if you touch me, it is illegal, and the police officers won’t let you off, you don’t want to spend your next life eating prison meals, do you?" Xiaofeng tried to keep herself calm.
She couldn’t afford any trouble, if something really happened, she couldn’t go back to the Imperial Capital anymore.
She wanted to go back, she wanted to be with Gu Yecheng.
Zhang Dacai stood up, positioned himself in front of Xiaofeng, "You say you will give us money, you have to make us believe you have the money. Just now, that woman gave me two thousand three, if you can give me five thousand, I’ll let you go right away." Zhang Dacai stepped forward, his eyes sparkled at the mention of money.
If Su Xiaofeng was willing to pay, he wouldn’t reject free money.
Upon hearing the other party willing to talk and wanting to take the money, Xiaofeng understood they were tempted, "Whether my family has money or not, you can find out easily. Just let me go, and five thousand it is."
"Dianzi, if she says she’s willing to give five thousand, we take the money, of course. As for women, just spend a hundred or two to find those streetwalkers, you could sleep for several nights." Zhang Dacai was quite experienced in these matters.
"I’ll listen to you," this Dianzi really trusted Zhang Dacai.
"Good." Zhang Dacai grinned at Su Xiaofeng, "You said you’ll give us money, bring the money."
Zhang Dacai was certainly no good person, even though he had promised Lin Jing to do her bidding, now that there was a chance to make extra money, he saw no reason to refuse.
With so much money, he could live a life of luxury.
Of course, he would still do what he promised, especially since Lin Jing still owed him two thousand.
"I only have a little over two hundred on me," Xiaofeng vigilantly watched them, not daring to relax for a moment, "My money is all in the passbook, I need to go home to fetch it, then withdraw it. If you let us leave, I will go home to get the passbook, I will withdraw the money for us."
Really, she had seen the passbook, there was a lot of money in it.
Not just five thousand, even fifty thousand was possible.
"That won’t do, if you leave here and then run away, wouldn’t I get nothing?" Zhang Dacai advanced and snatched the over two hundred dollars from her, "We are not fools."
Letting Su Xiaofeng out of this door, who knows what could happen.
"Uncles, I won’t deceive you, I promised I’ll give, and I will," Su Xiaofeng pleaded nicely, "Really, I won’t run, returning home I’ll definitely get the money for you."
"We can believe you," Zhang Dacai eyed the bracelet on her hand, "Give us the bracelet in your hand or the necklace you’re wearing around your neck. Though they’re not worth much, if you want these two things back, you’ll have to bring money to exchange."
"Okay, okay." Xiaofeng immediately tried to remove the bracelet, but it was as if it had grown onto her arm, she couldn’t take it off.
After several attempts, she felt helpless, "I must have gained some weight, so the bracelet won’t come off my hand now."
No one knew how it had been put on in the first place; now it seemed impossible to take off.
"That’s easy, I’ll get some soap." With soap in hand, what can’t be taken off?
Zhang Dacai asked Dianzi to watch Su Xiaofeng while he went outside to find a bar of soap.
Zhang Dacai opened the door and sneaked out.
Xiaofeng watched Zhang Dacai leave and was about to rejoice when she noticed that her strength seemed to be fading, to the point where she couldn’t even hold a stool steady.
No, there must have been something wrong with the tea she had just drunk, and now the drug was taking effect inside her.
She put down the stool and looked at Dianzi across from her like a frightened rabbit, "Uncle, don’t worry, I’m a woman of my word, I will definitely pay you."
Dianzi looked at her suddenly drooping hands and her weak-sounding voice, and suddenly his courage swelled again.
He stepped forward step by step, "Little girl, I’m just a beggar, living each day as it comes in this world. Today’s matter, whether I do it or not, I’ll do it. Since nobody is here right now, why don’t we have some fun together?"
Xiaofeng looked at him only to feel her eyelids getting heavier.
She shook her head; no, she needed to stay alert.
She must not let anything happen.
Dianzi, observing her condition, squinted his eyes, pulled the stool away, and pounced on her in an instant.
With a loud ’bang’, the door was burst open.
Captain Hong and Wu Yifan stood at the doorway, while Zhang Dacai was trembling, flanked by a police officer.
Damn it, he shouldn’t have been greedy. Just the time it took to go downstairs to buy a bar of soap, and they had found this place.
At that moment, Dianzi was pinning Xiaofeng to the ground, about to assault her, but upon hearing the noise, he immediately weakened and quickly raised his hands and crouched in a corner.
He was not afraid of bricks, not afraid of stool, only afraid of these police officers.
Captain Hong waved his hand, and the police officer behind him immediately restrained Dianzi.
Wu Yifan and Wu Ershun rushed to Xiaofeng’s side and found her breath strange and her body limp, appearing as if she had been drugged.
"Captain Hong, Xiaofeng seems to have been poisoned, we need to get her to a hospital immediately." These damn people are truly ruthless.
"Alright, let’s go." Captain Hong drove the police car over and quickly placed her inside the vehicle to the hospital.
Su Dacai and Dianzi were of course arrested.
"Pengzi, you stay here and watch; there is another person I need to meet." Wu Yifan asked Su Peng to stay at the hospital while he and Captain Hong had more important matters.
Su Peng nodded, "Okay, thank you for your effort."
If it weren’t for Captain Hong and Yifan’s swift action, Xiaofeng might have really been in serious trouble.
Lin Jing bought a ticket for the fastest train from the ticket office, not caring where to, just to leave this place first.
She glanced at the time; the fastest train would arrive in ten minutes.
She pulled down the hood of her coat and headed to the waiting hall.
A figure suddenly appeared, blocking her path.
She looked up, only to meet Wu Yifan’s eyes, which were smiling yet intense.
"Lin Jing, didn’t you just get home? Where are you rushing off to now? Escaping?"
