Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jia Manman gave Cao Hui a signal with her eyes, to which Cao Hui nodded in understanding and deliberately moved closer to Chen Xuan.
“Brother, that rcedes of yours is really nice.
To be driving a rcedes at such a young age, how did you do it?
Teach
so of your tricks.”
Chen Xuan naturally sensed Cao Hui’s ill intent.
He smiled faintly and said earnestly, “That’s easy, as long as you find a wife who’s not so sharp-tongued and harsh, you’ll be able to do it.”
Having said that, Chen Xuan looked aningfully towards Jia Manman, infuriating her so much that she slamd the table and stood up.
“Who are you calling harsh?”
“Don’t get
wrong, I wasn’t talking about you.
After all, it’s still uncertain whether you two will even get married.”
“You…”
Chen Xuan spoke lightly, which nearly made Jia Manman spit blood in anger.
Cao Hui played the peacemaker, “Brother, don’t get
wrong, I was just trying to lend you a hand because you are Manman’s neighbor.
The rcedes might be nice, but it isn’t yours.
A real man should earn money through his own abilities!”
“I’m not very talented, but I’ve made so achievents so far, starting my own advertising company with assets barely hitting ten million!
If you’re willing, you could co work at my company.
What do you think?”
Cao Hui had already calculated his moves; if the other party refused, at the very least he’d have demonstrated his superiority, but if he accepted, that was even better—then he’d be able to control him completely!
Jia Wendeng imdiately perked up with interest, “Cao Hui is right, Chen Xuan, there’s sothing I’ve wanted to say for a long ti.
You’re a man after all, always being supported by a woman—what kind of behavior is that!
Xuu Suzhen, what do you think?”
“Ah?
This…”
The honest and simple Xuu Suzhen was suddenly asked this question and didn’t know how to respond.
Jia Wendeng slapped the table, “Here’s what we’ll do, today I’ll take charge.
Cao Hui, when you go back, find sothing for Chen Xuan to do.
We should lend a helping hand whenever we can!”
“Uncle, rest assured, since we are neighbors, I will definitely help with this matter!” Cao Hui acted righteously.
“Coincidentally, our company is short on security guards.
The pay isn’t much, but Brother Chen seems to have only a high school diploma, so this job is quite suitable for him.”
“Good, then it’s settled!
Chen Xuan, what do you think?”
Jia Wendeng arranged everything clearly before rembering to ask for Chen Xuan’s opinion.
Chen Xuan let out a bitter smile.
Should he tell the Jia family that he was actually the chairman of Yaowang Corporation, with a net worth in the billions?
After all, they were neighbors, and Chen Xuan felt it best not to injure their pride.
“No need, I don’t require this job.”
But Chen Xuan’s polite refusal greatly displeased the Jia family.
Jia Manman looked at him with a contemptuous smile, “Cao Hui kindly offered you a job, and you actually refuse.
Chen Xuan, you’re really ungrateful!”
“So refusing your kindness is ungrateful?
Well then, if I now offer you a job cleaning toilets, would you show so gratitude?”
“You…” Jia Manman was choked by his words.
At this point, Zhao Chuni couldn’t bear to watch.
“I’ve said it before, it’s hard to be a good person these days.
You have good intentions, but people treat it like donkey’s liver and lungs.
Since so people prefer living off others their whole life, let’s not ddle in their business!”
Jia Wendeng shook his head, helpless, looking as if lanting over soone failing to et expectations.
“Mother is right, we’ve done what we could to help.
If he doesn’t appreciate it, then forget it, maybe so people just like living off others.
Ha ha…”
Zhao Chuni nodded in approval, “Cao Hui is more sensible.
Not only does he have integrity, but he also has the ability.
So young and he’s already started his own company with a fortune of ten million, far stronger than so people!”
Zhao Chuni’s gaze briefly flicked towards Chen Xuan, filled with mockery.
Chen Xuan couldn’t be bothered to waste words with these people.
If they wanted to show off their sense of superiority, then let them.
Just then, a staff mber approached.
“Sir, your table is ready.
You can dine now!”
“Alright.”
Chen Xuan was about to get up when Cao Hui and the others had already stood up first.
“Then we won’t be polite anymore.”
The Jia family really was impolite, directly attempting to take their seats first.
Chen Xuan felt a wave of frustration; he had really co to understand how thick-skinned this family was today!
Even the staff couldn’t stand it anymore, “Um, sorry, but this gentleman arrived first.”
Jia Manman, with a cold face, snapped, “Which eye of yours saw him arriving first?
It was clearly us!”
“That’s right, and besides, he doesn’t have much money.
Even if we let him eat, how much can he possibly spend?”
Cao Hui laughed out loud, leading Jia Manman and the others to take their seats.
Just at that mont, over a dozen burly n suddenly charged into the restaurant.
The leader was a crew-cut bruiser, soone Chen Xuan recognized: it was Pan Dayong’s right-hand man, Brother Gou!
Brother Gou and his group were clearly prepared for this, as they locked their sights on Cao Hui as soon as they entered.
“Damn it!”
Cao Hui, seeing Brother Gou and his group, tried to run like a rat spotting a cat.
Unfortunately, he hadn’t made it two steps before Brother Gou caught up to him from behind.
With a single kick, Cao Hui was sent sprawling forward, knocking out his front teeth, his mouth filled with blood.
“Motherfucker, run then!
Keep running, goddamn it!”
Brother Gou delivered a series of ruthless kicks to Cao Hui’s body; Cao Hui coughed up blood from the beating.
This sudden turn of events shocked everyone present.
“What the hell are you doing, beating soone in broad daylight?
Is there no law?” Jia Wendeng said with righteous indignation.
But no sooner had he finished speaking than Brother Gou slapped him to the ground.
“Fuck off, you old bastard, keep speaking nonsense and I’ll beat you up too!”
Jia Wendeng was so frightened he shrank back, daring not to let out a peep.
In front of those who argued with reason, he was bold and confident; in front of the unreasonable, he completely cowered.
“Cao Hui is my boyfriend.
If you dare to hit him again, I’ll call the police!”
Jia Manman put on an aggressively angry fa??ade.
Brother Gou smiled with a sneer, “Call the police?
Sure, the punk owes us over eight million and won’t pay, I’d love to see if the cops will arrest us or him!”
“Over eight million!”
The Jia family was startled.
Wasn’t he said to be worth tens of millions?
How did it co to owing so much money?
In fact, Cao Hui did have money before and even started a company, but due to poor managent it was near bankruptcy.
In desperation, he borrowed high-interest loans, and in the end not only failed to save his company but also accrued massive debt.
Cao Hui crawled over and clung to Brother Gou’s leg, “Brother Gou, it’s not that I won’t pay, I just really don’t have any money.
Just give
a few more days, I promise, once I’ve gathered the money, I’ll definitely pay it back…”
“Pay back my ass!” Brother Gou slapped Cao Hui’s face while roaring, “No money and you still dare to buy a new car!
No money and you still dare to dine at Huai City Banquet!
Are you fucking treating
like an idiot?
Believe it or not, I’ll cripple you right now!”
“Brother Gou, I beg you, spare !
My… my car wasn’t bought, it was borrowed from a friend.
Today’s al was also borrowed, just to show off in front of my girlfriend!”
In his desperation, Cao Hui spilled everything.
The Jia family was completely dumbfounded.
They thought they had caught a golden son-in-law, but it turned out to be nothing but an empty shell!
