Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Hehe. Little girl, don’t talk big at such a young age.”
For a moment, the burly man in the lead was really intimidated by the aura of the young lady. However, he quickly regained his senses. Could this young lady really return the money just because she said so? Every day, Jing Yu would say that he would definitely be able to return the money to him. However, that was not the case every time the burly man came to Jing Yu’s house.
“How can you return the money? You have to show us some proof.”
The other two burly men agreed. “That’s right.”
“Sister, we don’t have so much money. Don’t do anything stupid.”
!!
Yun Lian grabbed Yun Xi’s arm and spoke up to stop Yun Xi.
“Hahahahaha. Little girl, your sister has already said that you won’t be able to return the money, so you shouldn’t get involved in this matter.”
What a useless thing!
It could be considered a minor issue as it was only a matter of 5,000 yuan and a land deed. However, it would be a major issue as it would affect the survival of the Yun family.
“Brothers, search around.”
With that, a few burly men rushed into the house to search for the land deed.
“Wait!”
Yun Xi used her fastest speed to pull out a box of Cordyceps sinensis from the [s.p.a.ce]. It was the most expensive medicine that she could think of in a short period of time.
“Even if you don’t believe me, you should believe this!”
Yun Xi handed the expensive medicine to the burly man in the lead.
The burly man knew a bit about the medicine. At first glance, he could tell that the box of medicine that Yun Xi handed him was Cordyceps sinensis. Moreover, he knew the medicine was of high quality and costly.
He stopped in his tracks and began to examine the thin and weak girl in front of him with a different gaze.
“Hey. Looks like you have something there.”
“Now you believe that I can repay the money that the Jing family owes you, right? I have a way of getting the expensive medicine. Give me some time, and I’ll definitely be able to repay the money.”
“Sure. We’ll come back later, then. As for this box of Cordyceps sinensis, it would be to pay the interest.”
With that, the burly man finally let them off and left the room with his two brothers.
“Sister, how did you get such expensive medicine?!”
Usually, when Yun Gang was doing business, there would be people giving him gifts. Yun Lian was lucky enough to see such rare medicine once. However, what she was more curious about now was why the woman whom she would see every day would have such an expensive item in her possession.
This item might be equivalent to half a year’s income for her family. If they had this kind of channel, why would they have to live such a tight life in the Yun family? Could it be that her family had been pretending to be poor? Were they afraid of splitting the Yun family’s wealth with the other two families after Old Master Yun pa.s.sed away?
Annoyed by Yun Lian, Yun Xi did not want to respond to her at all.
However, on second thought, a wicked thought flashed through Yun Xi’s mind, which could make it impossible for Jing Yu to be Yun Lian’s right-hand man.
“You’re asking me? I want to ask you instead.”
Yun Xi ignored Yun Lian’s question and changed the topic.
“Why are you here?”
“Although there is a slight misunderstanding between you and me, the misunderstanding should be resolved at home. Why did you bring people to cause trouble for Jing Yu’s family?!”
Jing Yu was shocked when he heard Yun Xi’s words. Knowing that Yun Lian was the person who kicked up the fuss today, Jing Yu had complete trust in Yun Xi now.
“Are you trying to stop me from saving Jing Yu’s mother? I always thought that you were just a spoiled kid. I didn’t expect you to be so vicious.”
“I’m not. I’m really not.”
Yun Lian seemed to be saying that to Yun Xi, but in reality, she was trying to explain to Jing Yu.
“Look, I’ve brought all my pocket money to see if it can be of any help.”
Yun Lian took out the miserly three yuan from her pocket and showed it to everyone.
“I-I’m back again.”
One of the two men turned back.
“My boss asked me to remind you that his patience has reached its limit.”
The burly man saw the change in Yun Lian’s hand.
He walked over and took the three yuan.
“Since you have money, you can pay me back a little now.”
After taking the money, he quickly left the house.
Yun Lian was stunned on the spot. What a double whammy.
