Shuanzi was a cunning fellow. As soon as the old lady repeatedly ntioned that he must provide an explanation, he had already thought it through and cracked a sly smile, "Old lady, I get what you an. You just don’t want to pay back the debt your son owes, right?"
"I..." Zhou Yuni didn’t speak, but the eager expression in her eyes was obvious to anyone.
Seeing that, Shuanzi glanced at Xu He on the bed and burst into laughter, "Dream on. Do you really think your daughter-in-law is worth that much? That sleeping with for one night could offset two thousand yuan?"
Zhou Yuni was taken aback and unconsciously asked, "Then how many nights would it take to offset it?"
Shuanzi arched his eyebrows lasciviously as he looked at Xu He on the bed and chuckled, "At the very least, three to five months isn’t it..."
Shuanzi hadn’t finished speaking when Xu He, red-faced with anger on the bed, pointed at Zhou Yuni and scolded, "Zhou Yuni, do you have no humanity?"
"No, no, that’s not what I ant," Zhou Yuni felt her words might have indeed been too much, and she quickly changed her tone towards Shuanzi, "Anyway, there will only be two outcos today. Either you agree not to demand the money back from us, or I will go to the... police."
Shuanzi sneered dismissively upon hearing Zhou Yuni stutter over going to the police, "Old lady, you really are funny. Looking at you, you’d probably shake in fear just at the sight of the police, let alone go report to them."
Zhou Yuni fell silent. Being of the old school, she believed in the saying ’never step into the governnt’s doors’. Although she had done plenty of wrong in her life, she had never been to a Police Station, indeed she was a bit scared.
She remained silent, yet her hands were still blocking the doorway, preventing Shuanzi from leaving.
Glancing askance at her, Shuanzi’s heart softened when he looked again at Xu He, who sat on the bed refusing to leave. He said, "Forget it, considering that your family isn’t well-off, I’ll extend your son’s debt by half a year. I will charge the minimum interest for this half-year. But if your family can’t pay the money after half a year, I won’t be courteous anymore."
Zhou Yuni was naturally unsatisfied with rely a half-year extension and opened her mouth to speak, "You..."
"Old hag, shut your mouth." Having said that, Shuanzi’s eyes suddenly fixed on Xu He’s exposed shoulder, a flicker of lust in his gaze. He chuckled half-seriously, "But your daughter-in-law really does know how to take care of a man. If your son doesn’t mind, let her care for . If she pleases , perhaps I won’t insist on your family repaying the money."
Seeing his lecherous look, Xu He wrapped herself up in the quilt and furiously cursed, "Beast! To speak such words, get out!"
With that, Shuanzi looked at Xu He and swaggered off.
After Shuanzi left, Xu He no longer harbored any scruples as she crawled out from under the quilt to pick up her clothes on the floor.
Shuanzi was a rough man, and he had been rough in bed too, leaving Xu He with bruises all over her body, which enraged Zhou Yuni.
Zhou Yuni bit her teeth, trying to suppress her fury but ultimately failed. She rushed forward and slapped Xu He twice while scolding, "You shaless woman, claiming you’re thinking of our Zhiming, but I think you’re just lusting after n, even getting mixed up with soone like him."
Xu He quickly got dressed, fuming with rage as she countered Zhou Yuni with two punches, ranting, "Who are you scolding? If it weren’t for your son being unable to produce a son, would I need to go through such trouble? I haven’t even complained to you, and you dare to scold , do you have no conscience at all?"
"Ah! Ah! Ah!" Zhou Yuni couldn’t tolerate her daughter-in-law laying hands on her, so, gnashing her teeth in fury, she pounced on Xu He.
Xu He would not back down and naturally fought back.
Then the two of them got tangled up, putting all their strength into hitting each other.
After a long bout, the fight ended in a draw.
Since Zhou Yuni was older, her hands and feet weren’t as nimble as Xu He, and Xu He had been busy working all night, exhausting quite a bit of her energy, so their injuries were about the sa.
Zhou Yuni’s face was scratched with several bloody marks by Xu He, while Xu He’s hair was yanked out in clumps by Zhou Yuni, with other injuries on her body not imdiately visible.
Unable to continue fighting, Zhou Yuni sat down in a chair to rest for a while, then picked up where she had left off, continuing to berate Xu He, "Bitch Xu, what trouble are you bringing to us, did I make you sleep with other n?"
Gasping for breath, Xu He didn’t even want to bother with Zhou Yuni anymore, but upon hearing Zhou Yuni’s words, a mix of grievance and anger welled up inside her, and she burst into tears, crying out, "It wasn’t you, it was your son, Luo Zhiyong."
Xu He wasn’t stupid, and after the incident just now, she had more or less figured sothing out. She recounted the experience to Zhou Yuni.
"That damn kid." After hearing the story, Zhou Yuni cursed through gritted teeth, but since Luo Zhiyong wasn’t there, her cursing was pointless, so she continued venting her anger on Xu He, "Are you dead or just blind to who is who?"
"It was so dark I couldn’t tell who it was," Xu He countered irritably, "If I had known it was Shuanzi, I would have called out for help."
She really hadn’t expected to be targeted by Shuanzi’s people, and to unwittingly give Shuanzi a bargain.
At first, Zhou Yuni said nothing, but then sothing felt off to her. She sensed so inexplicable familiarity between Shuanzi and Xu He, and it was also strange how Shuanzi had suddenly gotten involved in this matter.
She looked at Xu He with sudden suspicion, "Hold on, what I don’t understand is, how does that high-interest loan shark seem to know you?"
Subconsciously, Xu He imdiately stamred a denial, "Which of your eyes saw him recognize ?"
Hearing Xu He’s tone, Zhou Yuni beca even more suspicious, "If he didn’t know you, why would he co here and deal with you like this?"
Upon hearing this, Xu He felt her heart skip a beat. No matter what, she couldn’t let Zhou Yuni find out about her past relationship with Shuanzi.
Otherwise, she truly wouldn’t be able to clear her na even if she was in the right.
She forced herself to stay calm, then t Zhou Yuni’s gaze, feigning innocence, "How should I know? This is his turf in the provincial city, he might have set his sights on us from anywhere and followed us, and then Luo Zhiyong used a little trick which led to what happened to . What’s so strange about that?"
Since Xu He shifted the bla to Luo Zhiyong, Zhou Yuni’s focus returned to Luo Zhiyong. After silently cursing Luo Zhiyong to herself for a mont, she didn’t say anything more, confused about what to do next.
After a long silence, Zhou Yuni was able to think again, reviewing all that had happened in her mind, and when she looked at Xu He again, her eyes carried a hint of disdain, "Even if what you said is true, tell , with things having co to this, what do you plan to do?"
