Chapter 12 Trouble

1153 Words
At last, Xiyan didn't have her fourth strawberry cake, but Lin Hao gave in when seeing her upset look and bought her two marshmallows to make up for her. Today, Xiyan really had a good time, enjoying doing activities and tasting delicious food. She was filled with joy for the first time since she was born. Of course, the most important reason was that her father, who she could only see in photos, showed up as a real person to keep company with her! "Dad, where are we going next?" Xiyan rode on the back of Lin Hao and asked with each hand holding one marshmallow. Lin Hao tilted his head back to rub her belly, making her giggle. Then he answered, "You still want to have fun? But the sun already goes down and we should go home to sleep now!" "Go home?" Xiyan seemed unfamiliar with the word, home. Three years ago, when Lan wasn't missing, Xiyan always lived with her. However, she was so young at the time that she couldn't understand what "home" meant. Later, Lan was missing. It was Lin Xiaotian, the patriarch of the Lin Family, that asked people to bring Xiyan back home. So naturally, Xiyan was raised there. Driven by her nature or something else, Xiyan always told herself unconsciously that she didn't belong to the Lin Family, although she had lived there since she was about three. To put it in the best way, she regarded it as her grandfather's home. Recognizing the bewilderment from her tone, Lin Hao felt heartbroken but he forced himself to sound normal. "Yeah, I asked my friend to buy us a house here before I went back. In the future, I will stay with you forever. Everywhere I live, it's your home." "I see!" Xiyan nodded fiercely and asked with a big, sweet, and innocent smile, "So, dad, do we have a big house?" "Um, I assume... It is really big." Lin Hao remembered that he asked He Shouwu to buy him a house in Modu. Beyond expectation, He Shouwu should buy him a top-level villa in Thomson Riviera. That villa seemed to be the one and only type in Tomson Riviera. He really wondered how He Shouwu managed to get it. After all, the villa was built by Tomson Riviera, the extremely well-known real estate in Modu. Although the so-called top-level villa might not hold a candle to his house in Dengta, it wouldn't be so disappointing. Xiyan rested her chin on Lin Hao's head. Her eyes were sparkling as if stars were shining in them. She looked like she was imagining her home in her mind. Right now, Lin Hao suddenly moved his ears and squinted to turn to somewhere for no reason. "Xiyan, we may have to change our plan of going home now." "Ah! Dad, why?" "Someone's in trouble and she looks like Aunt He." "Eh? I didn't see her. Dad, how do you know?" "Haha, I have good hearing." Lin Hao replied with a smile and then reached up to hold Xiyan's little feet that hung down from his shoulders. "Hold me tight, or you may fall!" Just when he stopped talking, Lin Hao secretly built an invisible protective shield around Xiyan with his Qi and rushed steadily to an alley near the hospital back door. Of a few passengers on the road, most just thought a gust of wind blew when Lin Hao ran past. Only very few people saw a vague shape of him. About two minutes ago when He Jing said goodbye to Lin Hao, she left the cake shop with bread as her simple dinner and took a shortcut to the alley to walk home as usual. But when she walked for some time, five gangsters rushed out to stop her from nowhere. "You, who are you?" Seeing three men encircling her in front, He Jing took a step back unconsciously, but then she found two men blocked the road behind too. "B*tch! Bao, our boss, sent us here. I think you'd better keep your mouth shut. So when will you repay us?" At once, He Jing looked a bit terrified when hearing what the man who dyed his hair yellow said. She frowned and thought for a while before she said anything. "I, I've remitted my salary to you every month." "Bah, your salary is worth nothing, even unable to cover the monthly interest!" The man with yellow hair spat at the place near his shoes, took out a knife from his pocket, and waved it before He Jing with a hideous look. "When you came to borrow money from Bao to treat your father's lung cancer, we clearly told you the loan interest was 6% and you had to repay us within 6 months. But if you fail to do so, the overdue interest will double!" "I, I... But you didn't tell me this!" The bread in her hand fell to the ground. He Jing looked so frightened. "Nonsense. All these have been written in the loan bill and you signed it. How dare you deny it?" The man with yellow hair took out a piece of wrinkled paper and unfolded it before He Jing. He Jing's eyes were fixed on it. The bill was indeed the one she signed when borrowing money from them and there were still her autograph and fingerprint on it. However, they apparently had added one clause that didn't exist when He Jing signed it! "You've tampered with it. The last clause didn't even exist when I signed it!" "Hey, you have no say over this. In the underworld, everyone knows people who borrow money from Bao should follow his rules!" Waving the knife before He Jing's pretty face, the man with yellow hair screwed the paper into a ball and tossed it into his pocket. All of a sudden, he put on an evil smile. "Heehee, girl, Bao is actually kind-hearted. Before we came to you to collect the money, he told us to offer you one more option because he knows you're from a poor family." "As long as you come back with us to serve him for one night, we won't collect the interest anymore and even extend the repayment date to 6 months later. What do you think?" "You... jerk! B*st*rd!" He Jing bit her lower lip tight and even, blood seemed to ooze. This stubborn girl who just graduated from college already had her eyes filled with tears because of grievance. "Hahaha, you're right. We really are jerks and b*st*rds!" Looking at aggrieved He Jing, the man with yellow hair laughed excitedly as if he took drugs, "Dudes, knock her out and carry her back in a gunny bag to serve Bao!" "Heehee, look how fair and juicy she is. Maybe after Bao has fun with her, we will also get a chance to enjoy ourselves. Hahaha!"
