Rebirth: Encyclopedia System-Chapter 1375 They started pressing for repayment.

Zhu Ran was dumbfounded. How could he repay the money? What could he possibly use? He had no way of repaying it.

He looked at Zhao An with pleading eyes, unable to utter a single word.

Zhao An sneered, "Zhu Ran, weren’t you planning not to repay the money?"

Zhu Ran saw the stack of IOUs in Zhao An’s hand and hurriedly shook his head, saying, "Repay, repay.

But brother, I don’t have that much money!"

Zhao An smiled and said, "You can go home and ask!

It’s only right for Zhu Ran to repay his debts; I believe you understand that!"

What is a devil like...?

What is Zhao An like now?

The thought of going home to ask for the money made Zhu Ran’s face turn deathly pale. Although the Zhu family was wealthy,

compared to the powerful families who had set the price, they were nothing.

Forget whether the Zhu family would repay the money; even if they were willing, it would be a painful ordeal.

They can’t possibly come up with hundreds of millions in liquid assets. Their assets are fixed and unrealized, not actually that much money.

"Zhao An, my family really doesn’t have that much money!"

Zhu Ran pleaded, "Can’t you not tell them?"

Zhao An laughed, "If you don’t have money, what are you gambling for?!

Don’t tell me you’re trying to get something for nothing!

Do you think I’m that easy to bully?"

Zhu Ran froze, even a fool could tell...

If Zhao An had that much money, he must be an ordinary person.

Zhao An continued, "By the way, I can sue you. I have an IOU; this is legal debt collection!

The Zhu family will definitely be happy to pay back the money. Money doesn’t matter, but reputation comes first.

By the way, don’t just talk to the Zhu family. Even if you gamble in Las Vegas, the casinos here have the right to collect my gambling debts. Hehe, when they come to collect, it won’t be so easy for me to talk to them."

Zhu Ran swayed, realizing what would happen if his family found out.

Needless to say, he’d be expelled from the family register.

His legs went weak, and he could no longer sit still, kneeling before Zhao An.

Zhao An didn’t even blink, asking, "Oh, Zhu Ran, what do you mean by this?"

Zhu Ran lowered his head helplessly, saying, "I don’t have that much money. Can you please be magnanimous and let me off the hook?

I’m sorry, I was wrong just now. I shouldn’t have been so rude to you. I apologize; it’s all my fault.

I’m sorry!"

"Hahaha, are you an idiot?!

Hundreds of millions in debt, forgiven with a single word? Are you out of your mind?!

It’s okay, we can take it slow. We can always go to court.

If you can’t pay, then the Zhu family will pay. If they don’t pay, then we’ll send you to jail!"

Zhao An’s smile was unusually sinister.

"Sir, he can’t leave here without paying back the money.

I guarantee with my professional expertise that he must fulfill the debt agreement."

Attorney Thomas, playing the villain, stepped in to intimidate the other party.

Zhu Ran, already kneeling there, kowtowed repeatedly, pleading, "Zhao An, please let me go, please!"

Zhao An smiled; that was more like it, exactly the attitude he wanted.

Zhao An smiled and said, "Zhu Ran, I’ll show you a way!"

Zhu Ran looked at Zhao An excitedly, "Tell me, tell me, I’ll do whatever you want."

Zhao An glanced at the house and said, "Your wife seems quite beautiful!"

Zhu Ran nodded, looking at Zhao An with confusion.

Feng Nan’s expression changed, her face turning pale as she looked at her husband.

She seemed to have guessed what he was going to do; he clearly wanted to use her to pay off the debt!

Zhao An finally smiled genuinely. "Speaking of which, do you have anything valuable left in this room?"

Zhu Ran looked at Zhao An, puzzled. Everything in the room had been used to pay off debts; what valuable could he possibly have?

Seeing Zhu Ran’s blockheadedness...

Zhao An shook his head. "Zhu Ran, you’ve read ’The White-Haired Girl,’ right? There’s a line that goes, ’If you have no money, use Xi’er to pay off your debts!’"

Zhao An finally revealed his true intentions. Zhu Ran burst into laughter, finally understanding Zhao An’s goal.

So Zhao An was after his wife! No wonder he said he’d use things to pay off the debts.

A surge of anger rushed to Zhu Ran’s head. He jumped to his feet, pointing a finger at Zhao An, and said, "You...you!

...You actually..."

Zhu Ran was speechless with rage.

Zhao An was unfazed by Zhu Ran’s anger...

Instead, he held up the IOU and counted, "Ten thousand, twenty thousand, thirty thousand..."

By the time he reached one hundred thousand, Zhu Ran was speechless, his sudden burst of courage gone.

With each number Zhao An uttered, his courage dwindled, until finally, his back, which had just straightened, bent back down again.

"Zhao An, I beg you, please let me go.

You’re so rich, you don’t need this little bit of money!"

Zhu Ran pleaded.

Zhao An coldly snorted, "Did I tell you to stand up?"

Zhao An had already seen through him; this was a coward. If he were the kind of guy who would spill blood...

Zhao An wouldn’t be forcing him like this.

Unfortunately, Zhu Ran wasn’t that kind of person.

The fact that he could kneel down was enough to tell.

And since he had bent down once, he would definitely bend down again.

Sure enough, Zhu Ran knelt down again.

Zhao An, holding the IOU for 100,000 yuan, said, "How about 100,000 yuan, Zhu Ran? That’s not a low price.

You know, hiring a prostitute only costs 2,000 yuan.

Even a virgin would only cost around 10,000 yuan. I’m being quite generous."
