Rebirth of the Villainous Female Boss-Chapter 539 - 513: Touching the Inverse Scales
Chapter 539: Chapter 513: Touching the Inverse Scales
“Qian Bao, putting aside the fact that your win was utterly disgraceful, even if I wanted to cross-dress for you, we don’t have the conditions for it. Look, we don’t even have a skirt at home. How about letting Elder Brother give you another reward? I’ll do 200 push-ups for you, okay?”
“Push-ups are to be done – but a skirt is also to be worn. Aren’t you a real man? Aren’t you guys the best at creating conditions even when you have none? I see – this curtain, this quilt, isn’t that enough? Make a little adjustment, and they turn into a skirt, don’t they? I have lip gloss in my bag too. How about I give you the latest color number?”
“Just kill me now…” Yu Minglang laid down on the sofa, pretending to be dead.
“If you die, who will keep me company? Come on, Elder Brother, get up! You have to accept the loss if you gamble!”
“You won in such a disgraceful manner.”
“All is fair in love and war! Besides, I’m not a good person. Didn’t you know that from the first day you met me?”
“Chen Xiaomei, I find that you have completely given up on the bottom line of being a human!”
Xiao Qian was very proud, “Do I need a bottom line with you? My bottom line with you is that I have no bottom line, that’s my full love for you!”
“Then just hate me.” How did he end up with such a shameless wife?
“No, I will love you forever and ever – Elder Brother, where did your camera go?”
Life was becoming unbearable; not only did she want to prank her man, but she also wanted to take pictures?
If such photos were taken, Yu Minglang might as well give up on his life.
“Don’t worry, I’ll develop the photos, and I won’t let your pictures leak out.” Her bag of skills was really useful!
“By the way, Qian Bao, how do you know so much? I find that you can do anything! The first time I saw you, you took pictures for Li Zhen and the others. Did you develop those photos yourself?”
“I’m a decathlete! Don’t change the subject, hurry up, accept the loss if you gamble!”
Just as Yu Minglang was on the verge of not being able to fool her anymore, Xiao Qian’s phone rang.
Xiao Qian gave him a “wait for the reckoning later” look and answered the call.
“Mom, what’s going on?” The caller ID showed it was from home.
“Qian’er… Can you contact Ming Lang and ask him to come over to our house? I can’t get through to his brother’s phone…” Jia Xiufang’s voice sounded a little anxious.
“What happened? Don’t worry, take your time.” Xiao Qian glanced at Yu Minglang.
“I don’t know what kind of trouble your good-for-nothing father has gotten himself into, but there’s a group of people at our door claiming to be debt collectors. They say if we don’t pay up, they’ll eat and stay at our house. You don’t come back. Let Ming Lang find someone – Ah!”
“Mom?!” As Xiao Qian heard her mother scream, she immediately sat up straight, and Yu Minglang, hearing something had gone wrong, immediately started putting on clothes.
“Chen Xiaoqian, your father owes us money. You better pay us back quickly, or else… heh heh, we brothers don’t know what we’ll do!”
A sleazy male voice came over the phone.
“You can have all the money you want, just don’t hurt my mother. I’ll be there right away.” Xiao Qian saw that Yu Minglang quickly put on his clothes and brought her own clothes over, letting him help her put on her pants. She noticed something like a whip on Yu Minglang’s waist, a type of weapon.
“200,000, not a penny less.”
“How should I address you?”
“I’m Brother Jiu! Remember not to report it. Your dad is still in our hands, if you dare to call for help, his corpse will sink to the bottom of the sea!”
“I’ll be there right away, remember not to hurt my mom or my younger brother, or you won’t get a single penny.” Xiao Qian hung up the phone, and Yu Minglang had her clothes on too while she was making the call.
Xiao Qian almost forgot she still had a dad, but the moment he showed up, he created such big trouble.
She put down the phone, looking for Zheng Xu’s number in her contacts, and was about to dial when she noticed something was off.
She looked up and saw Yu Minglang looking at her with deep eyes; if her first reaction was to think of another man, her rightful (future) husband’s status would be threatened, and he would have to settle scores with her.
Luckily Xiao Qian thought of that and immediately pocketed her cell phone.
“Xiao Qiang, you handle it.”
Yu Minglang held her hand with one hand, called with the other, and walked to call his eldest brother.
“Eldest Brother, what’s the matter with you? How could people run to my mother-in-law’s house to make trouble? Do you just eat and do nothing? There are still people daring enough to lend high-interest loans to my ex-father-in-law in Qiang City. How did I tell you back then?”
Xiao Qian knew that Chen Lin was addicted to gambling, so she had told Yu Mingli about this before, absolutely refusing to allow anyone to lend money to Chen Lin and not let Chen Lin enter any slightly larger gambling dens.
Yu Mingli was also stunned when he heard the news, “That’s impossible. I’ve told my people about this a long time ago. Who is so blind to lend money to him? Who’s the one asking for the debt?”
“He calls himself Brother Jiu, but from his tone, I’d say he’s not a big shot.”
“Give me a moment, I’ll call you back. Is everything okay with your aunt? I’ll send some people over.”
“No need, I’ll go myself. Just find out what’s going on.”
On the way, his eldest brother called back, and Yu Minglang let Xiao Qian answer.
“I couldn’t find anyone in this city lending money by this name. He’s not from the underworld, and there’s no big shot on this side called Brother Jiu. I’m planning to expand the search to nearby cities to see if it’s someone from another city.”
“No need, Eldest Brother, just help me find out the whereabouts of my dad now.”
Yu Minglang saw Xiao Qian hang up the phone and, with a dark face, he took out one hand to hold her hand.
“Don’t worry, it’s not that big of a deal, I’m here.”
“I was too soft-hearted towards him. He wouldn’t have been able to try to do this useless thing if I had been a little harder on him at the beginning.” As soon as Xiao Qian thought of her mother being frightened by this incident, her face turned extremely ugly.
“Do you also think… It’s what I think?”
When Yu Minglang heard his eldest brother say it wasn’t someone in this city lending money to him, he immediately thought about the truth of the matter. Hearing Xiao Qian, he knew that she had thought of it too.
“He’s quick on his feet when it comes to these crooked ideas, but not so much when it comes to real things. Not to mention he’s too timid and loves his life too much to actually borrow high-interest loans. Also, anyone who actually lends money wouldn’t be so stupid. He would need collateral to borrow money. My mom is rich now, but since he and my mom are divorced, no one would actually lend money to a person who has nothing.”
Xiao Qian was very furious right now; Chen Lin had really angered her this time.
“When the soldiers come, block; when the water comes, cover it with soil. This little thing is not worth your anger, Qian Bao, look up the number in your phone book called Xiao Wu.”
Xiao Qian dialed the number as he said.
“Xiao Wu, this is Yu Minglang. Help me look up a gambler named Chen Lin WITH a Qiang City county accent, ID card number is…”
