Let's Squander A Billion First!-Chapter 1471: Bankrupt CEO (17)

Sure, here is the translation:

The apartment Jinn Xiu had was under a relative’s name, who lived abroad, and Jinn Xiu was unable to contact them for a while.

When Jinn Xiu finally made contact and listed the apartment for sale, it was already half a month later.

Due to urgency, the apartment was sold far below market price.

However, with this money, Jinn Xiu could get some relief.

Who could have guessed that before he could even warm up to the money, the debt collectors showed up at his door.

They somehow found out he had sold the apartment and made over six million.

"CEO Jinn, since you have the money, why not pay us first? We’ve got lots of people to feed too."

Jinn Xiu was surrounded by these people, making it clear that they wouldn’t leave unless they got money today.

Jinn Xiu usually traveled with caution.

The debt collectors were aware that he was out of money and didn’t actually stalk him every day.

They just didn’t expect that the moment he got money, the collectors would show up.

"I will repay what I owe you, but this money is needed elsewhere." Jinn Xiu tried to stay calm, feeling that as someone who’s been spoon-fed and can’t even sort his own trash, he was no match for these people.

After such ups and downs in life, CEO Jinn had learned self-awareness.

"CEO Jinn, you need the money, and so do we," the debt collectors said. "Paying back debts is a moral obligation. As a learned person, we shouldn’t have to teach you this principle, right?"

If Jinn Xiu had the money and they didn’t act fast, wouldn’t others snatch it away?

They couldn’t let Jinn Xiu walk away with the money.

It must be repaid today!

Not even a penny can be missed.

Jinn Xiu said, "I will pay it back as soon as possible, but this money can’t be given to you..."

"CEO Jinn, don’t pull these stunts. Just give us the money," interrupted the debt collector, giving Jinn Xiu no chance to explain: "Otherwise, don’t blame us for being rude."

This group was experienced in debt collection, skilled in evading the law to deal with people who wouldn’t pay.

Jinn Xiu: "..."

Jinn Xiu scanned the surroundings.

This area was sparsely populated, but the terrain was complex. If he could just elude them...

Thinking along these lines, Jinn Xiu’s mind became active; he spoke to attract their attention, then, when they relaxed, he pushed the person nearest to him and dashed down an escape route he’d planned in his mind.

Yet, a CEO, who knows nothing of worldly affairs, failed to understand that in such a place there were private constructions blocking pathways.

The direction he ran towards turned out to be a dead end.

The people behind caught up: "CEO Jinn, why did you stop running?"

Jinn Xiu: "..."

-

Chuzheng had a fight in the Wen Family’s villa with An Sui.

No mistake about it, they had a fight.

The reason being, An Sui used Wen Hongyi’s authority to covet her room’s piano, and while she wasn’t around, moved the piano out.

That piano was bought by Liu Hanshan, quite expensive, and is now an out-of-print item.

Yet the original owner barely used it, and then An Sui wanted it.

Wen Hongyi directly had people take it down for An Sui.

When Chuzheng came back, she couldn’t be bothered to argue. She just pinned An Sui down and gave her a beating, simultaneously smashing the piano.

It’s likely that Wen Hongyi had just complained to Liu Hanshan, as Chuzheng received a call from Liu Hanshan right after.

"Zhengzheng, good job smashing it." Liu Hanshan said as soon as she spoke, "Mom will buy you a new one."

Chuzheng: "..."

She thought she was going to get scolded.

After all, it was a gift from Liu Hanshan...

"The things Mom gives you, even if you throw them away, you can’t let her use them. Zhengzheng, don’t worry. Mom’s got your back. If she bullies you, just bully her back. Your dad won’t dare do anything to you."

Chuzheng hung up and pressed the elevator button to go upstairs.

With the Wen family in such a state, she couldn’t stay there anymore.

Of course, she came back to find the Good Person Card.

As Chuzheng stepped out of the elevator, she saw someone squatting in a corner outside.

Chuzheng was startled and almost stepped back into the elevator.

This person looked somewhat familiar...

"Jinn Xiu?"

The person in the corner heard her voice, and first raised his head.

He was completely in the shadows, making it hard for Chuzheng to see his face.

The man was curled up in the corner, looking somewhat pitiful and a bit sad.

"What are you doing squatting there?"

Jinn Xiu’s voice was hoarse: "I... didn’t bring my key."

Chuzheng: "Didn’t I set up a fingerprint lock for you?"

Jinn Xiu paused: "I forgot."

Chuzheng: "How didn’t you forget yourself."

Chuzheng walked over and opened the door first: "Come in."

"Hmm."

Jinn Xiu waited for Chuzheng to enter before propping himself up against the wall to stand.

Perhaps from squatting too long, both of Jinn Xiu’s legs were numb, making it difficult to stand.

Chuzheng stuck her head back out, seeing him leaning against the wall, struggling to stand, she came out from inside and directly supported his arm.

Jinn Xiu shrank back.

Chuzheng’s hand met air, and Jinn Xiu, with his head lowered, said: "I’m fine."

Jinn Xiu took a moment, slowly stood up, buried his head low, and supported himself against the wall towards the door.

Chuzheng pulled him back, Jinn Xiu’s back hit the cold wall with a soft hiss.

Chuzheng immediately eased some of her strength.

She leaned in to scrutinize Jinn Xiu’s face.

Jinn Xiu tried to dodge, but Chuzheng held his chin, rendering him motionless.

Upon careful examination of the man’s handsome face, Chuzheng noticed some bruises.

"Did you get beaten?"

Little thing, I’ve never hit you, and now someone dares to beat you!

Tired of living, huh!

"No...no," Jinn Xiu replied, "Just accidentally bumped."

"Like this from a bump? Are you kidding me?"

"..."

Chuzheng pulled him inside.

With the lights on, Jinn Xiu’s bruises on his face became even more apparent.

"Apart from your face, where else are you hurt?" Chuzheng hoisted him onto the sofa, found the first aid kit, and while disinfecting his wounds with iodine, she asked.

Jinn Xiu winced occasionally, trying to retreat from the pain.

"Don’t move!"

Jinn Xiu frowned: "It hurts."

"Endure it."

A boy whining over this amount of pain, can he get any better.

Jinn Xiu probably was truly in pain, his brows furrowed tightly.

A young master like Jinn Xiu might have suffered a lot, but never physical pain.

Chuzheng quickly wiped clean the wounds: "Anywhere else hurt?"

"No problem..."

"If you don’t tell, I’ll check myself." Chuzheng’s aura of fierceness almost seemed to ooze out.

Check himself? How to check? Jinn Xiu felt that this inspection wouldn’t be a gentle one.

Before Chuzheng’s patience could run out, Jinn Xiu said: "...On the body."

"Off with it."

"..."

Jinn Xiu took off his clothes, revealing bruises on his back and chest, along with several scrapes.

Luckily they weren’t very severe, Chuzheng was able to handle it.

Jinn Xiu thought there might be some ambiguous atmosphere, but Chuzheng’s face was set firm, her whole demeanor cold, with not a hint of amorous air.

"Hiss..."

Chuzheng glanced at him, sped up her treatment.

"Anything else?"

"No."

Chuzheng glanced at his legs.

Jinn Xiu quickly said: "Really none."

Chuzheng stared at his legs for a few seconds: "I’ll trust you this once, but let me find out, and you’re done for."

"..."
