How should we deal with this?
Zhong Laobiao couldn’t imagine it, his face turned ashen.
Zhong Dabiao even fainted from dizziness.
Standing there to let him hit, yet he didn’t dare to hit?
He would hit even his own father without hesitation. The Zhong Family is done for!!!
"No need to rush," Ye Huan lightly kicked Zhong Laobiao on the ground and said calmly, "You previously said Su Zhiqiang owed you two million, what’s the story?"
Zhong Laobiao’s forehead was drenched in cold sweat, his throat moved with difficulty: "My... my son took him to the city to gamble... gambling, got him addicted to it, he lost... lost fifty thousand, so..."
"So, from fifty thousand, with compound interest it became two million?"
"Purpose..." Zhong Laobiao swallowed and said, "My son... son inadvertently saw... saw Su Zhiqiang’s VX friend, someone called... Xiaomei, very pretty, so then..."
"So, your son developed lustful thoughts, took Su Zhiqiang to gamble, then made him owe an unpayable debt to coerce him, so as to get his sister? Isn’t that right?"
Ye Huan squinted with a smile, causing a chill to rise from Zhong Laobiao’s heart.
"Deal with everyone in the Zhong Family!" Ye Huan snapped his fingers, a fierce look flashing in his eyes.
The snap sounded crisp and clear.
The sound wasn’t loud, yet it was like a bolt from the blue, making Zhong Laobiao wet his pants, an unpleasant liquid flowing out.
A few of Baha’s subordinates immediately rushed up, punching and kicking Zhong Family father and son, then restrained their arms and dragged them straight down the concrete road.
Zhong Laobiao was beaten beyond recognition, his already ugly features now twisted beyond human form.
He cried heart-wrenchingly, filled with despair.
Why did he act tough in front of such a person? Why!
Why didn’t he investigate thoroughly before taking action against him? Why!
One wrong move, all moves lost!
The mighty Zhong Family? In front of him, just an ant that can be easily crushed!
Xiangyang Village, Su Family.
The room was very dilapidated, the walls pitted, cobwebs filled the corners, under a flickering incandescent lamp, five people sat around the dining table.
"Brother, what’s going on, speak up!" Su Qingqing slammed her chopsticks on the table, her face full of anxiety.
Not only her, but Su Dahai and his wife also looked anxious.
Su Zhiqiang’s character was very timid, always a follower of Zhong Dabiao since childhood, he was in awe of Zhong Dabiao to an extreme degree.
But he never colluded with Zhong Dabiao, never took part in the atrocious deeds Zhong Dabiao did, he had a strong sense of right and wrong.
Who would believe he would actively gamble or be instigated to gamble?
"I... sigh!" Su Zhiqiang sighed, looking troubled, "Sister, you guys just don’t ask, it’s all... it’s my fault."
"The Zhong Family is already gone, what are you still afraid of?" Su Qingqing patted the table in frustration, making the dishes on the table tremble, the already old table creaking as if about to collapse.
"Yes, there’s..." Su Dahai and his wife glanced at Ye Huan, "There’s Xiao Ye here, you don’t need to be afraid!"
Su Zhiqiang continued eating with his head down, silent.
"My dear brother-in-law, you’re six feet tall, why are you so cowardly?" Ye Huan picked his teeth, crossed one leg over the other, "We men need to be responsible, to have courage, moreover, the Zhong Family is finished, you have nothing to fear."
Ye Huan’s words hit the mark, making Su Zhiqiang’s face more embarrassed, he bit his lip, not daring to speak.
In truth, he still couldn’t believe that the massive Zhong Family, the one that dominated Xiangyang Village, could be so easily brought down by the man his sister brought home.
The sound of knocking came, Ba Ye slowly pushed open the wooden door of the Su family’s house, walking in with a group of subordinates, bowing respectfully: "Brother Ye, the Zhong Family has been dealt with."
Ye Huan nodded, saying, "Not bad, on another note, I’ve got to ask, the Zhong Family took people gambling in Celestial Sea, did they go to your venue?"
"Yes." Ba Ye scratched his head awkwardly, "The Zhong Family would bring a group of people to play at the venue from as short as a month to as long as six months."
"And him, have you seen him?" Ye Huan pointed to Su Zhiqiang.
Ba Ye looked at Su Zhiqiang, thinking for a few seconds before nodding: "I remember him, he was always by Zhong Dabiao’s side before, but last month he... he went up to the table too."
Su Zhiqiang trembled all over.
His lips quivered, and he spoke:
After saying that, he sighed deeply, looking very guilty:
"I also know I was deceiving myself, someone like Zhong Dabiao would never turn over a new leaf."
"But... but I had no choice, I... I didn’t want mom and dad to know how far I’ve fallen, so I kept lying to myself, forcing myself to believe Zhong Dabiao’s lies."
"I went to the gambling table, voluntarily..."
As soon as he said this, Su Dahai, his wife, and Su Qingqing all exclaimed: "Why!"
Su Zhiqiang’s lips were filled with bitterness: "Because I needed money."
"Three months ago, Zhong Dabiao and I went to Celestial Sea, and on the way, we met a girl walking, she was from the neighboring village."
"The first time I saw her, I felt... a bit different, so I went to say hello..."
"That’s when I found out she had a strange illness and was going to the city for tests, I felt sorry for her, so I took her to the hospital and accompanied her for tests."
"The test results were... leukemia."
"I... I don’t know why, but I wanted to help her raise money, to... to cure her."
"I borrowed money everywhere and barely gathered 150,000, but the base cost for surgery was 500,000, I had no choice, I went to Zhong Dabiao to borrow money."
"But he beat me up, even stole my phone. He saw my sister’s photo from my phone, then... developed lust, lent me 50,000 principal, then coaxed me to gamble..."
"I couldn’t borrow money already, had no other way, so I agreed."
"Then those 50,000 were lost by me in two minutes, Zhong Dabiao promised, as long as I introduce my sister to him as a wife, he would reform, and forgive my huge debt, even more..."
"Would raise 500,000 for me, to raise money for the girl’s surgery."
After he said this, he closed his eyes, as if awaiting his fate.
But the storm he envisioned didn’t come.
Su Dahai, his wife, and Su Qingqing all breathed a sigh of relief together.
Su Qingqing flashed a cunning look in her eyes, speaking meaningfully: "Brother, I didn’t expect you would reach this age."
"The age to fall in love!"
