âLittle Bao, go there first.â Yang Ming looked up at Bao Sanli who was driving in front, and then he gave a command.
âOkay, Brother Yang.â Bao Sanli nodded and replied.
âRight, Little Yang, why do you call him Little Bao, and he calls you Brother Yang?â Lin Changqing asked curiously.
âUgh?â Yang Ming was speechless. He didnât think of this problem. Bao Sanli was also sweating, but fortunately, he was smart. âUncle, I look more old-fas.h.i.+onedâŚâ
âOhâŚâ Lin Changqing just asked simply. His mind wasnât on this question at the moment, so there was no more question.
Most of the other people in the vehicle also had this thought. Now they were thinking about the matters of He Luluâs family, so they obviously wouldnât pay attention to these little things.
Along the way, no one talked. The car went down the Dongsong Expressway and entered the Song Jiang City area. Then they headed to the place that He Lulu told them about.
This was an old industrial area. Then it was transformed into a distribution center for Song Jiangâs foreign trade. There were several large-scale foreign trade wholesale markets, and on the market side, there were many tall buildings. The trading companies were crowded on top. He Luluâs familyâs Zhibo trade was also located above.
The van stopped at the door of the trade building. Before the van stopped completely, He Lulu couldnât wait to open the door and jump out. As for Shen Yuefeng, he was following behind her to get out.
âWeâŚâ Shen Yueping just wanted to ask if they were going up together but she was interrupted by Yang Ming.
âAunty Shen, let them go. Letâs wait here.â For He Luluâs matters, Yang Ming was too lazy to bother.
Seeing that Yang Ming said so, Shen Yueping also knew that Yang Mingâs heart was displeased with He Lulu. She sighed and didnât get out of the car. However, she looked anxiously in the direction that Shen Yuefeng and his girlfriend went.
Shen Yuefeng and He Lulu didnât even wait for the elevator. They ran directly to the companyâs office on the third floor. He Lulu pushed the door and saw a group of fierce macho men surrounding her fatherâs office.
The person who was sitting in the bossâ chair wasnât her father, but a one-armed middle-aged fat man with a bald head.
âDad!â He Lulu nervously shouted to He Zhibo who was standing beside the fat man.
âLulu? How come you are here?â He Zhibo was shocked. He said, âThis is none of your business. Go home quickly!â
Just now, Old Yao had already told He Zhibo about the news of He Luluâs return. This time, he didnât have half of the joy he usually had when his daughter came back. He hoped that his daughter wouldnât come back first.
âOh? I say, President He, is this your daughter who is studying for her Ph.D. abroad? Good, good! She is quite charming!â said Du Duzi as he smacked his tongue.
âWho are you? Are you harming my father?â He Lulu glared at Du Duzi.
âWho am I? Then ask your father!â Du Duzi spread his hands in the air and made a very innocent posture. âAs for me, I harm your father? What would I harm him for?â
âHe Lulu, donât make trouble. Listen to me. Go home!â He Zhibo was anxious. He was afraid that Du Duzi would be unfavorable to He Lulu. He looked at Shen Yuefeng who was beside her. âAre you the boyfriend, Little Shen, that Lulu mentioned? You take Lulu and leave here! Please take care of Lulu.â
What He Zhibo said was equivalent to admitting the relations.h.i.+p between Shen Yuefeng and He Lulu. He now hoped that Shen Yuefeng could quickly persuade He Lulu to leave here. The others werenât important. Whatâs more, he would soon lose everything. Did he have the right to pick a son-in-law?
âLulu⌠weâŚâ Shen Yuefeng hesitated and pulled He Luluâs hand.
âYou are a coward! What are you afraid of?â He Lulu swung her hand and said, âIf you want to go, go by yourself. I wonât leave!â
As He Lulu said this, she glared at Du Duzi. âDoesnât my dad just owe you money? Why do you force him? You are talking so weird! How much is owed? We will repay you!â
âOh? Great!â Du Duzi clapped his hands and laughed. âThatâs good. If this is the case, then pay back the money. Your dad owes me⌠En, I will give him a discount. Wipe a fraction, ten million yuan will be good!â
âWhat? Ten million yuan!â He Lulu was surprised that she dropped her jaws widely. âHow is it so much?â
âHowever, I have already discounted a lot of interest for you!â Du Duzi sneered and said, âI am discussing with your dad to use his company to pay off his debt!â
âDad, how do you owe so much money?â He Lulu asked inexplicably, âIs he cheating you?â
âWho knows that the interest in usury would be so high⌠I only borrowed one million yuan in the beginningâŚâ He Zhibo said bitterly.
âWhat? One million yuan?â He Lulu was enraged after hearing that. She pointed at Du Duzi and said, âYou are scamming people! We owe you one million yuan. Why do you want us to return ten million yuan?â
âEvery house has its rules! We who run the money shop have our way to calculate the interest. If you think itâs too high, you can choose not to borrow. No one is forcing you to borrow money.â Du Duzi snorted and said, âAlright. If you owe money then you should pay it back. This is the rule. If you sleep with me for two nights, I will probably give you another discount.â
âYou⌠are shameless!â He Lulu stomped her feet and said furiously, âYuefeng, letâs call the police! I donât believe the police canât deal with people like you!â
As He Lulu spoke, Du Duzi laughed arrogantly. âHa ha ha ha ha! Little Chick, have you just returned from Mars to study? Call the police? I have the receipt for the loan. Iâm not afraid if you report it to anyone!â
âWhat you are doing is extortion!â He Lulu said, âI really want to know. If I borrow a million yuan, why am I repaying ten million yuan?â
âOkay, then you report it! I, Du Duzi, will say this, little chick. Iâll tell you this. Unless you hide abroad forever, you will suffer for a long time!â Du Duziâs face became sullen and said cold.
Du Duzi was actually afraid of making the matters bigger. If He Lulu reported to the police, not only would he be unable to persuade the police, but after he came back, he might be eliminated by Bao Sanli.
So, when He Lulu threatened to call the police, Du Duzi also became ruthless. He threatened her in return.
âEnough, Lulu! Stop messing around! There is something you donât understand!â He Zhibo said while he was shocked in his heart. Who was Du Duzi? He was from the underworld! These people were unscrupulous in their ways of doing things. How can He Zhibo be vengeful with people like them?
If He Lulu reported to the police today, the matters may be solved, but the subsequent troubles were endless! Du Duzi had suffered a loss. Could he let them go?
In the future, He Zhiboâs family didnât have to think about doing business in Song Jiang again! Unless there was someone important to mediate it or directly cover the He Family, otherwise, they could only run.
âDad, how can I not understand? To deal with the bad guys, the weaker you are, the madder they are!â He Lulu said loudly, âOnce we call the police, they will be afraid! He is doing extortion. It is a big crime! Do you still think that he can come out? He will be sentenced quickly!â
âAi!â He Zhibo sighed. My daughter just stepped onto society. How can she know so much? Even if Du Duzi is sentenced, what about his underlings? If they come to look trouble every day, it would be difficult! At that time, my family will be ruined.
âWell, I would let you call the police!â Du Duzi gritted his teeth and said to the other underlings, âYou guys see this. If anything happens to me, do you guys know what to do?â
âDo not worry, Brother Du. Our daily life always has a risk. Adding He Family onto the list wouldnât be too much!â Du Duziâs several underlings answered.
As expected! He Zhibo took a cold breath, and at this moment, He Lulu finally understood why Du Duzi would be fearless! He seized the weakness of human nature that was afraid of retaliation!
âAlright, Lulu. You and Little Shen should go home first. Iâm going to do the formalities with Boss Du.â He Zhibo sighed. Now, this is all I can do!
âButâŚâ He Lulu was looking at her fatherâs company falling into the otherâs hand so easily. Her heart was feeling extremely bitter.
âOld Lin, Yuefeng, they went up for so long. Would something happen?â Shen Yueping looked at her watch and said anxiously.
âWho knows? AiâŚâ Lin Changqing sighed. I didnât expect my little brother-in-law to be caught up with such a thing as soon as he returned.
âYang Ming, I donât feel relieved. Me and Uncle Lin will go and take a look. You and Zhiyun wait downstairs. If something is wrong, it is also easy to ask for help.â Shen Yueping couldnât sit still, so she said this.
âLetâs go then. Go up and see.â Yang Ming couldnât help it. Although he didnât want to bother about it, Shen Yuefeng was still Lin Zhiyunâs uncle. After Yang Ming said it, he glanced at Bao Sanli. Then like he was talking to himself, he said, âSong Jiangâs usury is really bad*ss, right?â
Yang Mingâs seemingly unintentional words made the sweat on Bao Sanliâs head come out! Obviously, Yang Ming was questioning him with this! Bao Sanli had just gotten Yang Mingâs affirmation. He didnât expect such a thing to happen. Wasnât this letting Yang Ming doubt Bao Sanliâs ability?
It wasnât easy for Bao Sanli to sit in his current position. Although he seemed to be the boss of Song Jiang, only he knew about his current situation. The power of Song Jiangâs underworld had been divided. Hou Zhenhan had taken up more than half, and Hou Zhenhan still held the financial power! This was the lifeline of the gangâs growth!
And he, himself, in fact, dealt more with the underworldâs matters. To say it bluntly, if another person took over the position, he could do it as well! Therefore, if Yang Ming was displeased with him, it was easy for him to get rid of Bao Sanli.
So, at this moment, Bao Sanli was so angry right now. Usury, is it? Okay, I will deal with you today! He would like to see who had the guts to create trouble for him!
Lin Changqing and Shen Yueping walked in the front. Yang Ming and Lin Zhiyun were in the middle, and Bao Sanli followed at the back. They found He Luluâs fatherâs company.
Shen Yueping pushed the door open with worry. She was at ease when she saw that Shen Yuefeng was fine. âYuefeng, sister-in-law, are you alright?â
âSister, brother-in-law, how come you are here?â Shen Yuefeng looked at the door and said, âWe are fine. Letâs go quickly!â
