The security team captain immediately said, "Repaying debts is a matter of course, no matter who comes, I dare to say so! When you borrow from a bank, they also ask you to mortgage things like your property deeds, just in case you can't pay back! Now that you can't pay, I'm going to take your property deed, and that's perfectly legal and reasonable!"
He spoke as if he was the very image of a good citizen.
Xu Hao, however, laughed and said, "Firstly, usury is an illegal act. A principal of ten thousand, after five years, you actually want someone to pay back one hundred thousand, and moreover, you use violence to collect the debt, threatening and intimidating, even assaulting the debtor. Do you really think what you're doing is reasonable?"
The security team captain, seeing the limited-edition Ferrari supercar behind Xu Hao, felt somewhat intimidated. Such a wealthy person was not someone he could afford to offend, but he couldn't just willingly let him leave either.
With this in mind, he said, "Young Master Xu, I presume you also mingle in Huadu, right?"
Xu Hao nodded slightly without committing to an answer. Text acquired from M|V|LEMP&YR.
The security team captain immediately said, "We have backers too. Young Master Cao, Cao An, is our immediate superior. Our Cao's Security Company was founded by Young Master Cao. Over the years, our performance has been very good. Young Master Xu, please consider carefully before you get involved in this matter. For the sake of this kid, is it worth offending Young Master Cao?"
Upon hearing his words, Xu Hao immediately laughed, "So you have connections?"
"Of course! Young Master Xu, perhaps you can leave now? Now that Young Master Cao is involved, I believe you're a smart man and know what to do," said the security team captain, thinking Xu Hao was intimidated and immediately asking him to leave.
He felt that Xu Hao, after all, was also the scion of some family and on his own, he couldn't provoke him. Although he was an employee under Young Master An, he was not Young Master An himself. It was better not to ask Young Master An to step in if it could be avoided, so he felt that Xu Hao being there was an inconvenience in handling the situation.
But, Xu Hao was clearly about to disappoint him.
Xu Hao glanced at him and laughed, "You want me to leave, and I must leave? Even if your boss Cao An were here, he wouldn't dare to chase me away! However, I am curious whether the Young Master Cao who used to preen in front of everyone still has the face to appear in public?"
The security team captain immediately became angry, as Xu Hao dared to ridicule Young Master Cao!
He said harshly, "Young Master Xu, I call you Young Master Xu out of respect, but don't take kindness for weakness! There are many powers in Huadu I'm not aware of, and so I don't wish to offend you, but the strongest forces in Huadu are the Four Great Families and the Seven Small Families. Yet, among these eleven families, there isn't one with the surname Xu!
So, you may be the offspring of some minor family, but your family pales in comparison to a family like Young Master Cao's! Don't precipitate a disaster for your own family because of your own arrogance. If Young Master Cao holds you accountable, your family won't be able to bear it!"
Xu Hao immediately laughed, "I can't bear it? Call Cao An for me; is that kid looking for trouble again by not disciplining his men properly?"
The security team captain, convinced of his own judgment that Xu Hao was just bluffing, picked up his phone and snorted, "I am calling our manager right now to ask Young Master Cao to come out!"
Saying this, he walked to the side and began to make his call.
At this time, Peixian's mother said, "Young master, please take my son and leave. The farther you can escape, the better. The Cao Family's power is so immense, we don't have the strength to resist them!"
"Leave? No one is leaving today!"
The security guards instantly blocked the exit, clearly intent on letting no one leave.
Xu Hao didn't even glance at them and smiled at Peixian's mother, "Auntie, you don't need to worry. Even if the Head of the Cao Family came, he wouldn't dare to do anything to you, let alone a mere Young Master Cao."
Peixian quickly said, "Mom, rest assured, Young Master Xu's power is beyond anything you can imagine. And now I'm an employee under Young Master Xu. He treats his employees well, he will surely stand up for us."
Worry still clung to Peixian's mother's face as she murmured, "Ah, the power of the Cao Family is too great. With just a flick of their finger, we could all be wiped out without a place to be buried!
Ah, why won't you listen? Please go, even if I'm left here, they won't bother with an old bone like me, but you young and strong ones are different! And these two young and beautiful girls, that bastard Cao An is a big pervert, haven't a few good girls already fallen victim to him? Ah!"
Xu Hao walked over, crouched down, and smiled, "Auntie, don't worry about us. Rather, you've been suffering from illness for so many years, which must have been hard. But, I might be able to take a look and help you with these illnesses."
