Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The lights in the neighborhood were dim.
Jiang Bei’s footsteps and Wanwan’s steady breathing were very clear.
The daughter in his arms and the light cloth bag on his back felt very real.
Jiang Bei smiled lightly. He knew that his wife was waiting for him and his daughter at home, and that she might have already prepared dinner.
Although he didn’t know how she would react when she saw the money and knew that he and his daughter spent Children’s Day together.
But she wouldn’t misunderstand him again, right?
He already had 15,000 yuan in his hand, which was not far from the 50,000 yuan gambling debt.
This money was enough to let him start a bigger business. Even if he opened a small shop to sell something, it would be very easy.
There were only seven days left, so it should be very easy for him to earn the remaining 35,000 yuan
Having a happy family was his greatest wish.
It was also his only wish after he turned back time.
Jiang Bei’s smile became brighter as he thought about it.
But at this moment, a few figures dressed in dirty clothes walked out from the corner of the street. They held clubs in their hands.
The moment Jiang Bei saw them, he didn’t hesitate at all and immediately ran!
Behind him, there were already a few people waiting to block his path.
“Long time no see, Jiang Bei.” The gangster leading the group, whose arm was wrapped in a thick bandage, suddenly sneered. “Why, don’t you remember me?”
“That day when you stabbed me with a knife, weren’t you pretty amazing?”
Not all the gangsters were “businessmen” like Zhang Luzhong, at least Third Brother was not.
He held a grudge against Jiang Bei!
After being stabbed up by such a good-for-nothing, he became a laughingstock!
But today, he caught Jiang Bei!
June 1 was a day for children, but it was also a day for hooligans, especially for people like Third Brother. A part of his income came from forcibly collecting protection fees, otherwise, he would not have been discharged today.
The park was also one of their “business” spots.
It was his subordinates who were at the park collecting fees who sent him the news.
They suddenly found a stall that had never been there before, and business was booming.
Just as he was about to ask for money, he saw an acquaintance.
It just so happened that this person was with Third Brother that day and met Jiang Bei. The ruthlessness of Jiang Bei holding a knife and the cold smile on his face were still fresh in his memory.
He didn’t look like a person at all, but more like a devil!
He didn’t dare to collect protection fees from such a person, so he went back and looked for Third Brother.
When Third Brother heard that Jiang Bei was in the park, he couldn’t hold it in anymore and immediately wanted to bring people over. However, when he heard from his subordinate that he had earned quite a lot of money, he hesitated again.
Then let him continue earning the money. When it was dark, he had to go home.
When the time came, even if he called the police, it would be useless!
Jiang Bei naturally did not expect that Third Brother would be so persistent even though Zhang Luzhong had agreed to give him time.
“What do you want to do?” Jiang Bei took a step back to the other side and asked with a dark face.
He wanted to run with his daughter, but it was impossible now. He was gradually approaching a dead end.
“What do I want to do? Look at my arm, what do you think I can do? I had more than 30 f*cking stitches in the hospital!”
“Zhang Luzhong should have told you, right? Give me ten days. I won’t return you 1 cent less than 50,000 yuan,” Jiang Bei said coldly.
“50,000 yuan?” Third Brother suddenly laughed. When he laughed, the two men behind him also laughed loudly, as if they had heard the funniest joke in the world.
“50,000 yuan is f * cking Zhang Luzhong’s! I took your stabbing for nothing!” Third Brother shouted coldly. He looked ferocious
His gaze also landed on the bag that Jiang Bei was carrying.
“You want money, right?” Jiang Bei said with a sullen face.
When he felt the Third Brother’s gaze, Jiang Bei had become bolder.
What he was most afraid of was that these gangsters did not want their lives. There were already seven or eight gangsters surrounding him. He could no longer escape.
He didn’t care about himself, but his daughter was still in his arms!
If their goal was only to take the money he earned today, that would be the best.
Money could be earned back at any time, but his daughter must not be harmed. He would not allow it.
“I’ll give you 5000 yuan for the medical fees. I’ll pretend that what happened tonight did not happen. How about that?”Jiang Bei took a deep breath and said.
He couldn’t reveal all his trump cards in front of someone like Third Brother.
“5,000? Are you sending beggars away?” Third Brother shouted. According to what his subordinate said, Jiang Bei earned more than 10,000 yuan today!
“What do you want?” Jiang Bei asked back. His expression was obviously hesitant. Third Brother noticed it.
He laughed sinisterly. “What do I want? Leave all the money in your bag to me!”
“I’ll give you all the money and you let my daughter and I go. How about that?” Jiang Bei asked in a deep voice. “If it gets out of hand, it won’t benefit either of us. If you only take the money, I’ll pretend this never happened.”
“That depends on how much money you have here. Do you think it’s possible with just 5,000 to 6,000 yuan?” Third Brother sneered.
Jiang Bei took off the bag on his back with one hand. The shoulder strap of the bag was hanging on his other elbow, which was holding his daughter.
“This is 15,000 yuan.”
As soon as he said the number, Third Brother’s eyes immediately lit up.
“I will return the 50,000 yuan to Zhang Luzhong. Take all this money and let me and my daughter go,” Jiang Bei said while clenching his teeth.
His eyes were filled with hatred, but he could only lower his head as much as he could to hide everything.
He had to do something that he didn’t want to do.
He had no choice. He was not alone now. He was no longer that numb machine in his future life!
He would always remember that Third Brother, who had escaped for two years in his previous life, was caught by him and sent to prison in the future. He had clearly taken revenge, but that night, he cried until dawn.
But now, he had to compromise!
For his daughter!
Even if there was a ferocious beast in him, he had to hold it in.
He held it in until his eyes were bloodshot, and his arms trembled.
“15,000? That’s quite a lot of money, huh?” Third Brother laughed. The greed in his eyes could not be hidden at all.
“Third Brother, 15,000 is not enough! You had more than 30 stitches on your arm! After the anesthesia wore off, how much pain were you in? Have you forgotten?” A man beside him suddenly said.
“Zhang Luzhong casually takes 50,000 yuan. How much of it will he keep? How much will he give to his subordinates?”
“If he hadn’t played dirty back then, would he have been the boss?”
After they finished speaking, the greed in Third Brother’s eyes burned fiercely once again. That’s right!
Damn it!
I was stabbed by this trash in front of me! I’ve had more than 30 stitches!
That bastard Zhang Luzhong didn’t even look at me.
And told me that it was my fault?
It’s against the rules to touch someone’s wife and daughter?
Even if he did, so what!
This wasn’t the first time he had done this!
When he first became a gangster, Zhang Luzhong was nothing!
At this moment, Wanwan slowly woke up. He looked up at Jiang Bei and asked, “Dad…. are we home yet?”
