Chapter 1249: They Could Not Afford It
The person on the side sighed. “What a pity! If there were a way out, they wouldn’t have come to this G.o.dforsaken place. This young man is also at fault. He’s here to do a job. Why did he have to bring his beautiful wife with him? Wouldn’t that make other people jealous? My wife had said that she wanted to come here to see me.”
“And she’s a foreigner. She’s definitely going to get bullied,” someone else said.
Jiang Yao heard all the whispers. Then, Lu Xingzhi also replied to the foreman. “I didn’t hit him; he hit me on purpose! I won’t pay for this! I don’t have any money either; I can’t afford it!”
After that, Lu Xingzhi added, “Consider me unlucky. You guys are just bullying foreigners like us. You can keep the half an hour’s pay!”
Then, Lu Xingzhi pulled Jiang Yao to him so that they could leave. However, that was clearly someone else’s territory. How could they leave so easily?
The foreman immediately stopped Lu Xingzhi and Jiang Yao.
When the foreman spoke, he looked at Jiang Yao lecherously and said, “If you really can’t afford it, then I’ll give you another way. Don’t say that we’re bullying foreigners.”
Without waiting for anyone to ask, the foreman said, “It’s fine if you don’t want to pay. Just let your wife accompany me for a month, and we’ll forget about it.”
Just as he finished speaking, Lu Xingzhi’s fist smashed into his face. He used all his strength to beat that person to the ground, hitting his face and cursing at him.
Lu Xingzhi had no intention of letting him go. He rushed forward and stepped on that man’s face with all his might. He glared at the person on the ground and gritted his teeth. “I have killed people before, and I don’t mind killing another one!”
The foreman was stunned by the beating. He did not expect a foreigner to be so bold in Shu city. However, when he snapped back to his senses, he was so angry that he was about to explode. He instructed the workers to pull Lu Xingzhi away. He ordered them to beat Lu Xinghi to death.
The foreman wanted to beat the young man who had dared to hit him.
He was only a foreigner. No one would know if he was beaten to his death and left in the wilderness.
Furthermore, not a single person there would dare to talk about it. They counted on the factory to work for a living. Plus, they did not know the young man at all. They did not even know his name. Even if they beat him to death, no one would seek justice for him.
As for that woman, she would be his. He could even sell her off when he was bored with her.
If that woman were sensible, she could even serve him for a few more years.
The men kept away from Jiang Yao. The foreman told them to beat the young man to death but not the woman. They knew that the foreman had taken a fancy to the woman, so they did not dare to touch Jiang Yao.
Lu Xingzhi was not a coward. Although he did not fight methodically, he was not at a disadvantage. He was strong and young, but it was difficult for him to fight four people by himself. He was still at a disadvantage.
Jiang Yao stomped her feet anxiously. There were too many people, so she could not squeeze in between them. She could only let Moe go in and keep watch over her husband. Then, she looked around anxiously and begged the crowd to call for the police to save her husband.
