Urban Invincible Medical Divine-Chapter 684 - 355: Making a Fuss_5
The origin of the incident was that several days ago, an older gentleman, Du Laoye, spied Fan Xiaoyu by chance and claimed it was love at first sight, insisting on marrying her as his second wife!
Understand that this Du Laoye was already sixty years old!!
Moreover, since Fan Xiaoyu was with Liu Wentian, even though Du Laoye was wealthy and powerful, she was unwilling. After clearly understanding Du Laoye’s intentions, she outright rejected him.
At the time, Du Laoye didn’t say anything.
However, the next day, trouble arose.
Fan’s father worked at a pharmaceutical factory; after work that day, a few colleagues dragged him out for drinks. After becoming slightly intoxicated, they coaxed him into visiting Boss Cui’s casino for some gambling fun.
Originally, he’d planned to just play casually, and even if he lost, he would stop after losing a few hundred to keep it light.
However, his luck was incredibly good at the start; he kept winning money, amassing tens of thousands.
That excited Fan’s father, feeling like he could win regardless of his bets, so he gambled more aggressively.
But, after winning tens of thousands, his luck seemed to vanish instantaneously. In no time, he had lost all his money, including the thousands he personally had!!
Fan’s father, slightly drunk and spurred on by his colleagues, still felt his luck was good and that he could win back all the money if he continued gambling!!
Originally having won tens of thousands, he ended up losing everything and even owed money, which made him extremely frustrated!!
Consequently, he foolishly went to borrow money from the casino, and as the night progressed, he lost more than he won, eventually facing continuous losses!!
Fan’s father, blinded by his losses, kept borrowing from the casino, not considering why the casino was so willing to lend him money. Finally, as the stakes grew higher, he had astonishingly lost a whopping million!!
He owed the casino a huge sum of one million yuan!!
At that moment, he realized it was over, but it was already too late!!
When Liu Wentian heard this, he said, "If I’m not mistaken, the next day, Boss Cui’s men came knocking on the door demanding repayment, and if you weren’t willing to pay, Sister Yu, you would have to marry that Du Laoye as his second wife, right??"
Clearly, this Boss Cui was colluding with Du Laoye, deliberately setting a trap for Fan’s father.
Fan’s father’s colleagues were undoubtedly bought off by them already!!
This was all a trap they laid.
Liu Wentian sneered internally; this Du Laoye wanted to steal his woman and was even resorting to schemes and tricks, essentially digging his own grave!!
Fan’s father, ashamed, said, "It’s all my fault for being too greedy; otherwise, it wouldn’t have turned into such a mess."
Fan’s mother glared at him with reddening eyes, reproaching, "What’s the use of saying this now?? I told you never to gamble, and look what’s happened now. We owe a million, should we pay with our lives?? Seriously, are we really going to let Xiaoyu marry that old man??"
Fan’s father hung his head in shame, his chin nearly touching his chest. freёwebnoѵel.com
"Auntie, don’t blame uncle for this. That Du Laoye obviously intended to play dirty; it’s unavoidable," Liu Wentian spoke up.
When a person in power decides to manipulate an ordinary person, they have countless means; you can dodge once, but not forever.
Fan’s mother sighed deeply and said, "I understand that, but what do we do now?? Ah, young man, you better take Xiaoyu and leave now, or it will really be too late!!"
"Yes! You two go ahead, at most I’ll give them my life. I’m useless as a father, but I can’t let Xiaoyu’s happiness be the cost!!" Fan’s father said decisively.
Their elder daughter had already left this world, and their younger daughter and two granddaughters were all they had left. Even if it meant his death, he couldn’t harm his own daughter!!
"Grandpa, grandma, with my dad here, nothing will happen!!" Keko said, trying to comfort her visibly distressed grandparents.
"Dad is the best; he can chase all the bad guys away!!" Mengmeng nodded, in the little girl’s eyes, Liu Wentian was a hero capable of anything.
"Uncle, Auntie, don’t worry, I will handle this matter. That Du Laoye and Boss Cui can’t really do anything to you!!" Liu Wentian confidently said, not regarding such social bullies highly at all!!
"Ah, young man, why don’t you understand? You need to take Xiaoyu and leave quickly, or you really won’t be able to!"
Seeing that Liu Wentian stubbornly wanted to stay, Fan’s parents felt rather helpless.
In their view, Liu Wentian was probably just another worker like their daughter, incapable of fighting against such powerful adversaries.
"Liu Wentian, Du Laoye and Boss Cui, those locals have tremendous influence. You mustn’t underestimate them," warned Fan Xiaoyu.
Although she knew Liu Wentian was formidable, she was even more aware of how extensive Du Laoye’s influence and power were, nearly unmatched in both the black and white realms.
"Heh, Sister Yu, it seems you don’t have much faith in me, huh?" Liu Wentian chuckled.
Thinking Liu Wentian was upset, Fan Xiaoyu hastily shook her head and said, "It’s not that I don’t believe in you, I’m just—"
"Alright, no need to say more, let’s go, I’ll take you away," Liu Wentian said with a smile while grabbing Fan Xiaoyu’s hand.
"Leave??" Fan Xiaoyu was stunned, thinking Liu Wentian was planning to take her away alone, leaving her parents behind in their hometown.
She couldn’t help but stiffen; although she understood it was a wise decision, Liu Wentian making such a choice disappointed her greatly.
"Yes, let’s go check out Boss Cui’s casino. He dared to trap my father-in-law; I really want to see just how formidable he is, whether he has three heads and six arms!!" Liu Wentian said with a cold sneer.
