When Sister Xia approached Zhou Hao with a thick stack of IOUs, Zhou Hao suddenly realized the gravity of the situation.

Each one was for ten thousand!

Such a thick stack must amount to millions!

"I didn't borrow that much, right?"

Zhou Hao swallowed and asked nervously.

If it was true, he might as well sell himself and still not be able to pay it back. Would he end up getting his arms and legs chopped off?

"Oh, what's this? Getting cold feet and trying to wriggle out of your debts?"

Sister Xia poked Zhou Hao's chest arrogantly and said, "I've been in this business for many years, and not a single person has dared to default on their debts to ! Are you sure about this?"

"No... I just feel like I never borrowed that much... At most, at most only about fourteen tis?"

"Heh, no worries, nowadays everything has to be evidenced. I've got surveillance footage here, why don't you take a look for yourself? If after watching it you still dare talk nonsense, don't bla my brothers for not showing rcy."

Sister Xia tossed her phone to Zhou Hao.

Zhou Hao watched the video of himself going back and forth, entering ninety-four tis!

How did he have no mory of it?

Of course, by that ti he was already deep in the quagmire, his sensitivity to money drastically reduced. Every ti he borrowed money, he would gamble it all, and then continue to borrow.

It was a vicious cycle, borrowing that much in such a back-and-forth manner.

Moreover, the ease of borrowing made Zhou Hao believe the delusion that it was just a small amount.

"Let calculate, you've borrowed a principal of ninety-four thousand, plus interest, you owe a total of one million three hundred and sixty-eight thousand four hundred fifty-one. But since you're a major custor, I'll round it down for you, just give one million three hundred and sixty thousand, alright? Cash or card?"

Sister Xia held a calculator right in front of Zhou Hao's eyes.

Seeing the long string of numbers, he gulped in fright.

"I... I don't have that much money..."

"Huh?"

Upon hearing this, Sister Xia's brows furrowed, and she glared with her large, fierce eyes, saying nacingly, "Are you seriously planning not to pay back the money?"

"No! Let's be fair, you knew I couldn't possibly repay such a high amount. Why did you lend so much money?"

Zhou Hao felt he had been trapped, completely forgetting how desperately he had begged Sister Xia for money previously.

"Heh, lending money can be a mistake now? Why don't you say it's your own insatiable greed that brought you to for loans?"

Sister Xia sneered, "Cut the crap and pay up quickly, or I can't say what might happen next."

"Sister, I truly don't have that much... Maybe, maybe you could give a few days to gather it? After all, even selling houses requires finding custors, right?"

Zhou Hao was nearly in tears by now; having just graduated from college, such a large sum of money seed like a mountain to him, heavily weighing down on his shoulders.

"Damn it, if you run away, wouldn't that ruin my business?!"

"I absolutely won't run, I swear! I've co to our—your place so many tis, you should give so trust!"

Zhou Hao begged earnestly, though in truth, he had already planned his escape. If these people let him out, he was going to buy a train ticket for the very next day and disappear, living under an assud na for a few years.

"Don't give that nonsense. Let tell you, with every minute you stall, the interest doubles. I want to see how much your family's house is worth then!"

"Ah? We didn't agree on that before!"

Zhou Hao exclaid, dumbstruck.

Sister Xia pulled out an IOU and found a line of fine print that was hard to see with the naked eye, saying, "Isn't it right here?"

Zhou Hao took it and examined it closely, then in a fit of anger, he threw the IOU on the ground and shouted, "This is illegal! You are..."

"Smack!"

Sister Xia slapped Zhou Hao across the face and said coldly, "What I hate the most is people saying that. Since you've made up your mind not to pay back the money, let's see if you have anything of value on you!"

"I only have the clothes on my back, nothing else!"

"I'm not talking about that."

Sister Xia leered at Zhou Hao's body and said with a wicked smile, "Whether it's your looks, or what's inside, you'll still fetch a good price."

"No, no, no!"

Zhou Hao imdiately understood what Sister Xia ant, and knelt on the ground, begging for rcy, "Sister, I really know I was wrong, just give so ti, I'll go raise the money right now!"

"What's all this noise about?"

Chang Chun erged from the shadows with a displeased look on his face.

Upon seeing Chang Chun, Sister Xia imdiately clung to him and cooed, "Boss~ this bastard won't pay back the money he borrowed. If this debt goes bad, you'll take a big loss~"

"Hmph! To think that soone would dare default on a debt owed to , Chang Chun!"

He swaggered over to Zhou Hao, squatted down, grabbed his hair, and said to his face with a cold laugh, "So you're the one called Zhou Hao?"

"Ah? You... you've heard of my na?"

"Hmph, didn't you and Uncle Gang team up trying to win money? Let tell you, that old 'helpful' fool has already been tossed into the river on my orders. Do you want to end up like him?!"

"Uncle... Uncle Gang is gone???"

Zhou Hao looked around in disbelief and sure enough, he did not see Uncle Gang's figure in the vast space.

Only then did he realize that the people before him were demons who consud n without spitting out bones!

The trouble he had gotten into was like bone-eating maggots, impossible to shake off for a lifeti!

"I was wrong, I was wrong, please spare , and for the rest of my life I'll work like an ox or horse to repay you!"

Zhou Hao kept kowtowing and calling out, his voice already carrying a hint of sobs.

"Damn it, what do I need a broke-ass kid like you for, just to feed and get nothing back!"

Chang Chun gave a cold snort and instructed his subordinates, "Take this bastard away, and get in touch with a buyer to see what's valuable on him."

"No, no, no! I... I have a sister who's very rich. Not to ntion over a million, she'd surely be able to co up with three or four million!"

Zhou Hao struggled and shouted as he was dragged away by the thugs.

"Oh? Bring him back."

Chang Chun, looking at Zhou Hao covered in dust, said, "Is your sister really as rich as you say?"

"Yes, she got together with a rich guy, and as long as I ask her, she will definitely lend the money!"

Zhou Hao lay on the ground, not caring about the dirt. He clung desperately to Chang Chun's feet and yelled, "And I am the Zhou Family's only heir, my family won't ignore my plight!"

"The way you put it does sound reasonable."

With a wave of his hand, Chang Chun ordered a lackey to bring a cellphone to Zhou Hao.

"Call now. If you dare to lie, hmph, you know the consequences!"

"I wouldn't dare..."

Zhou Hao felt as if he had just snatched back his life from the gates of hell, shakily pressing one digit after another.

He listened to the "beep beep beep" from the phone as if millions of ants were ceaselessly gnawing at his heart!

Pick up the phone!

Pick up the phone already!
