...

Such intimidation was meaningless for Qin Fang; these formidable-looking brutes were actually of no importance at all.

Liu Ying, that shrew, probably brought them just for show. They looked fierce, but their actual combat ability wasn't even a match for street gangsters who were used to brawling.

"Auntie, let me handle this matter..."

Seeing the worried look on Mother Su's face, Qin Fang spoke calmly.

"Okay... okay then!"

Mother Su hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded her head. Although she hadn't interacted much with Qin Fang, everything he had handled had been reliable, even persuading her resentful daughter to come back. Mother Su's trust in Qin Fang had grown stronger.

Moreover, Mother Su knew that Qin Fang was wealthy, had status, and had connections; dealing with matters was certainly much stronger than what she could manage as an ordinary woman.

Furthermore, the 500,000 she needed for repayment was essentially provided by Qin Fang, giving her even less reason to refuse...

With Mother Su's permission, Qin Fang naturally became the legitimate person in charge of this matter. He looked indifferently at the old crone across from him, completely ignoring those beefy men, and declared firmly, "500,000, cash or check, I have no issues with either... However, we must see the person first. Hand over the person, hand over the money; otherwise, forget it!"

Mother Su was confused by her worries, especially since her daughter Su Xiaoxiao had returned—she was thrilled yet anxious, and even her mind wasn't as clear as usual.

But Qin Fang was different. He was an outsider to the situation and could see things more clearly, not getting lost in it; besides, he had a special ability others didn't possess, always able to spot something unusual.

500,000 was a huge sum for ordinary people, and even for Liu Ying, who seemed pretty impressive, that amount was significant; she couldn't produce it.

But for Qin Fang, it was no issue at all. He had just won 40 million from Lu Ming the night before, so 500,000 was a mere trifle.

Money wasn't the problem, but he couldn't just give away such a sum without clarity, especially since there were some undisclosed shenanigans involved.

"Big talk for such a young lad. Why should I trust you? You don't get a say here..."

But Liu Ying, evidently difficult to handle, looked down on Qin Fang, seeing him as just a young twentysomething. She was significantly irritated by his audacity.

"He's my man!"

Just then, a clear female voice rang out, and the crowd parted again, revealing Su Xiaoxiao walking towards Qin Fang with a frosty expression.

Her glare was piercing and murderous, causing the bodies of the ferocious men to tremble subconsciously, as if a mere glance could send one's soul flying... although many thought it was infatuation rather than intimidation.

"Xiao Xiao..."

Mother Su hadn't expected her daughter Su Xiaoxiao to step forward and help her; she had been worried that her daughter might misunderstand her.

"He's my man, does he have the right to speak now?"

Su Xiaoxiao didn't pay any heed to Mother Su, but the look she gave her wasn't as cold as before, though it was hard for her to completely change that in the moment.

Su Xiaoxiao affectionately linked her arm with Qin Fang's and coldly addressed Liu Ying, the shrew.

"And who might this be? So, little Xiao Xiao has come back..."

It was normal for Liu Ying not to recognize Qin Fang, but seeing Su Xiaoxiao, who looked very much like a younger Mother Su, Liu Ying immediately knew who she was. Her expression instantly became very awkward, and her tone much gentler.

"Don't try to cozy up to me. We're not that close... My man has already said, hand over the person, hand over the money; otherwise, forget about it!"

Su Xiaoxiao's piercing gaze gave Liu Ying a stern look. She had no fondness for this type of shrew, and immediately made it clear there was no room for negotiation.

"This..."

Liu Ying hesitated, her expression quite unnatural. Being lectured by a younger person in front of so many people was something her pride could hardly stand.

But to yell at Su Xiaoxiao the way she had yelled at Qin Fang, she simply didn't have the guts...

Mother Su, Li Wenxiu, was a single woman. After her divorce, she had no one to rely on, and she was often bullied.

But Su Xiaoxiao was different. Not to mention that Su Xiaoxiao's father was said to have made a fortune with assets worth tens of millions, but the Su family's relationship with Secretary Sun of the municipal committee was not something she dared to offend.

"What? Don't believe my words? Do you want me to take out the 500,000 right now?"

Seeing Liu Ying hesitate, Su Xiaoxiao's expression changed immediately, and she spoke even more forcefully. There was no need to be polite to such a shrew; otherwise, she would just be more disrespectful.

"No, no, of course not... I'll have them bring the person right now!"

Liu Ying's already unattractive face turned rapidly from pale to flushed with urgency. In the end, she dared not confront Su Xiaoxiao directly and could only agree obsequiously. She pulled out her cell phone and stepped aside to make a call.
