Seeing her daughter's domineering demeanor instantly subdued the previously aggressive Liu Ying, Mother Su's face was also very satisfied, especially when she saw her daughter Su Xiaoxiao and future son-in-law Qin Fang being so close, she was even more delighted and pleased...

"Xiao Xiao, go and chat with Auntie, I'll be fine here..."

Seeing that shrew go to make a phone call, and observing the hint of forlornness amidst Mother Su's satisfaction, Qin Fang gently patted Su Xiaoxiao's back and whispered.

Su Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment, but eventually nodded her head and walked over to Mother Su. The mother and daughter, who had not truly spoken in many years, were unlikely to resolve their issues so easily.

The response from the loan sharks was quite prompt. In about ten minutes or so, a series of screeching brakes were heard, and soon, a considerable number of people swarmed into the yard. Although these people didn't look as menacing as the previous few, their shabby appearance certainly didn't suggest they were good people.

That wasn't very important. These people were involved in high-interest loans and shady businesses; no decent person would be doing that.

Among this group, there was a young man with a slightly bluish corner of the mouth, who looked as if he had been beaten, mixed in. He was clearly being controlled, with a thug intermittently brandishing a dagger at him...

Without a doubt, this controlled young man had to be Li Deliang, who had tricked his own aunt. Just looking at his current state, he seemed to have not suffered much beating and was rather intact.

The leading person in this group was about a twenty-something-year-old young man, whose hair was dyed in various clashing colors, giving him a bizarre appearance, complete with a nose ring.

Upon seeing this young man, Liu Ying instantly exclaimed, "Son," and immediately rushed over to him. It appeared this young fellow was Liu Ying's son and, of course, the creditor of the high-interest loan.

This young man was named Liu Kun. He had refused to go to school since he was sixteen or seventeen and had ventured into society. Over the years, he had indeed made a name for himself, which earned him a group of followers who called him Brother Kun.

Of course, Brother Kun preferred his name to be pronounced as separate syllables...

Brother Kun was very happy today because someone was about to bring him money — fifty thousand including the principal and interest. This deal was very profitable. The only problem was that the party insisted on exchanging the money hand-to-hand and the person. He had no choice but to lead a group of his men and bring the detained "borrower" over to collect the money.

As he entered the yard and swept his gaze around, his eyes nearly popped out as if he had discovered some rare treasure. He noticed a stunning beauty and almost immediately felt a certain part of him harden...

When his mother ran over at this moment and introduced the identity of this stunning beauty, it also made Brother Kun's face light up with joy. He had been worried about not having a reason to strike up a conversation, but here it was delivered to him...

"I've brought the person, where's the money?"

Brother Kun immediately walked towards Su Xiaoxiao's direction. As the saying goes, debtors have their creditors. Since borrower Li Deliang couldn't repay the money, it was natural to look for the guarantor.

As for whether they were relatives or not, in Brother Kun's eyes, that was nonsense. Even his own father had been angered to death by him. When his father was buried, he was partying with some girls, not showing his face at all.

However, if he could have a good relationship with this stunning beauty, then the terms of the money were not completely non-negotiable, mainly depending on the performance of the beauty...

"Don't get too close! My girlfriend and you aren't very familiar..."

But before Brother Kun had the chance to approach the beauty, he found a young man standing in front of him, blocking his way, and speaking nonchalantly.

"Where is the person? I didn't see..."

Qin Fang saw through Brother Kun's intentions at a glance. Su Xiaoxiao was talking with Mother Su, and things were finally moving in a good direction. He certainly didn't want this situation to be spoiled by Brother Kun.

"Who are you?"

Brother Kun immediately became displeased, feeling that someone dared to block his path. He frowned, and his temper seemed on the verge of flaring up.

"Son, he is Xiao Xiao's man..."

As useful as Liu Ying was, at least now she knew to introduce Qin Fang's identity to her son, Liu Kun.

As for her son's little crush, she was well aware of it, and of course, she was more than willing for her son to seduce Su Xiaoxiao. However, just thinking that Su Xiaoxiao was Li Wenxiu's daughter made her uncomfortable.

"But, playing with your daughter is still a possibility..."

Of course, if her son could play with Li Wenxiu's daughter and then dump her, she would be very pleased to see that happen.

"The money will be here soon. I want to see Li Deliang first..."

Qin Fang paid no attention to the mother and son; he simply said something briefly and then walked towards Li Deliang.

Li Deliang, controlled by a few thugs and looking about twenty-seven or twenty-eight, had a pale face as if frightened. However, Qin Fang could tell at a glance that his constitution was clearly drained by debauchery.

However, knowing Qin Fang's identity and seeing him approaching, Li Deliang's face turned pale and he shrank back in fear, looking quite scared. He even gave Qin Fang a pleading look, which really made him appear quite pitiful.

"Are you Li Deliang, Aunt Li's nephew?"

Looking at the cowering Li Deliang in front of him, Qin Fang wore a faint smile, which might make an unknowing person think the kid was really scared.

"I... I am Li Deliang!"

Li Deliang still appeared timid and cowardly, his speech slow and his tone trembling.

"Was it you who had Aunt Li act as guarantor and borrowed three hundred thousand from a loan shark?"

Qin Fang asked with his usual calm tone.

"Yes..."

Li Deliang said this without changing his tone, but he tried to look very remorseful.

"Where's the money?"

Qin Fang asked again.

"Lost... lost it..."

"How did you lose it?"

"Lost it in business..."

"What kind of business?"

"Doing..."

Like this, Qin Fang, as if interrogating a criminal, kept asking Li Deliang about the details of this matter. Li Deliang answered fluently, as if he had prepared beforehand, with each detail very precise, as though he had indeed experienced the whole process.

"I see, it seems your luck is really not that good..."

After Li Deliang had carefully answered every one of Qin Fang's questions, Qin Fang seemed very moved as he spoke.

"Yes, yes, bad luck..."

Li Deliang naturally echoed Qin Fang's words.

"Don't worry, I'll cover this debt for you..."

Qin Fang patted Li Deliang on the shoulder in a brotherly manner, seemingly very sympathetic towards his plight, and prepared to leave. Li Deliang also seemed noticeably relieved.

But just as Li Deliang's tension began to ease, Qin Fang, who had taken half a step away, stepped back and suddenly asked, "How much did Liu Kun agree to give you this time?"

"Fifty thousand..."

Almost instinctively, Li Deliang blurted out this response, not even realizing his own mistake after speaking.

Whoosh~~

But the eyes and ears of the crowd were sharp. They hadn't really cared about Qin Fang's seemingly trivial questions, but this sudden statement made them all start, including Liu Kun and his son.

Only when they realized something was wrong did Li Deliang blurt out the truth, instantly drawing a chorus of hisses from the crowd. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote at Qidian (qidian.com), your support is my greatest motivation.)
