“Xinrong, I beg you… Bring the child in first,”Jiang Bei begged.
“Is there a difference? This time, we can’t stay in this house anymore, right?” Xu Xinrong asked calmly, but her expression already gave the answer.
“Xinrong, believe me, I will take care of everything. You bring the child in first.”
“Ha…”
She knew that once these people came in, they would not let Jiang Bei off.
But what did the life and death of this man have to do with her?
When this house was also sold, this marriage would truly be over.
She could take care of her daughter by herself.
Xu Xinrong wanted to carry her daughter into the house. She did not want her child to see the scene that was about to happen.
However, this three-year-old daughter seemed to have realized something. She struggled and cried.
“Mommy! Mommy! A bad person is coming! A bad person is coming to bully daddy! I want to protect him!”
She wasn’t sure how Wanwan got the strength, but she struggled to get out of Xu Xinrong’s arms. She ran to Jiang Bei’s side and hugged his legs tightly.
“Wanwan…” Jiang Bei lowered his head and looked at his daughter. His heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.
His daughter raised her head and looked at this devil-like father.
But he had really changed. His father had just cried. He was so sad. How could he still bully her mother?
He had just promised me…
If our family could be normal, how good would that be…
“Daddy, don’t be afraid. Wanwan will protect you. Wanwan has grown up.” Jiang Xiaowan’s big bright eyes blinked. She tried her best to smile, giving Jiang Bei confidence.
“Wanwan… be good. Wait for me to take care of these things. Trust me, okay?” Jiang Bei took a deep breath. His chest was burning because he was hungover, and he desperately wanted to get it out.
“I trust daddy.” Jiang Wanwan nodded with a smile.
“Damn it! You won’t cry until you see the coffin, right? Playing dead? Lao Wu, it’s your job now. Is this door easy to open?”
“I can open ten of these damn things in a minute.”
The curses outside the door were heard again. Wanwan hugged Jiang Bei’s legs tightly, her arms trembling slightly.
Although she was very scared, she had to protect her father…
“Wanwan, Listen to me. Let go of me. I will defeat the bad guys.”Jiang Bei squatted down and gently pulled his daughter’s arm away.
Then, he smiled and touched his daughter’s dry hair.
“Yes! Daddy is superman!”
“Yes, daddy is superman.” Jiang Bei smiled silently, nodded hard, and stood up again.
The creaking sound of the lock and the wire could be clearly heard.
Jiang Bei walked into the kitchen, washed the tears off his face with cold water, and slapped his own face hard.
The stimulation of the cold water completely restored his consciousness.
He took out the only thing in the house that could kill people, the kitchen knife!
When he walked out of the kitchen again, the door slowly opened with a crisp sound.
The hooligans outside the door, who were dressed in dirty clothes and holding sticks in their hands, appeared in front of Jiang Bei.
“Damn you, Jiang Bei, playing dead?”
“This bastard has been dragging out his debts for a long time. If he can’t pay up today, we’ll take one of his arms!” A hooligan at the back said with a smile.
These people were in charge of a casino and collecting debts, so they were more difficult to deal with than ordinary debt collectors.
They had seen too many families being destroyed!
While they were talking, the leader, the man in a flowery shirt, had a receipt in his hand. The bottom right corner of the receipt clearly had the words “Jiang Bei” written on it, and there was a bright red fingerprint on the side.
“Including the interest, it’s a total of 40,000 yuan.”
“Eh? This girl is not bad.” The leader’s eyes immediately lit up when he saw Xu Xinrong.
“Third Brother, she is indeed not bad. Her looks are much better than the ones from the day before yesterday.” A few people beside him also agreed.
“It’s a pity that such a beautiful woman is with such a scumbag.” He shook his head and said disdainfully.
“Please give me some time. I will pay back the money with interest.” Jiang Bei opened his mouth with difficulty.
He tried his best to suppress his emotions so that his gaze was not invasive.
However, he stared fixedly at the man who was leading the group and whom the others referred to as “Third Brother”.
In his previous life, this had happened, causing chaos in the house.
As for Wanwan, in order to protect Xu Xinrong, she was fiercely pushed away by this man!
She bumped her head at a solid wooden chair.
With a bang, Jiang Bei didn’t come back to his senses for the rest of his life!
The daughter who called for her father and wanted her father to hug her was gone just like that!
She was still so young…
That day, Xu Xinrong hugged Wanwan and sat on the living room floor, crying in despair. Jiang Bei remembered that scene for the rest of his life!
“Third Brother, give me ten days, give me ten days… I will definitely pay back the money, including the interest.” Jiang Bei lowered his head and said these words through gritted teeth.
The hand holding the knife was behind his back as he clenched it tightly. The veins on his arm were popping up.
“Ten days? Ten days is f * cking long! Don’t blame me for being merciless, eh? How about this? Let your wife spend the night with us. I will give you three days. Third Brother is a man of his word.”
“Hehe…” Third Brother said as he walked over.
Xu Xinrong, who was still expressionless, suddenly turned pale. She subconsciously protected her daughter.
Not far away, he had already taken out the knife from his back.
Third Brother paused for a moment, and his face instantly darkened.
“You dared to take out a knife? Scumbag, I dare you to!”
As he spoke, he took another step forward. He could clearly see that Jiang Bei’s hand holding the knife was trembling!
He did not dare to do it at all. He was just putting on an act!
How could such a scum care about the life and death of his wife and daughter?
He should be grateful that they were giving him three days in exchange for one night with his wife.
They knew Jiang Bei. They just did not expect that this scum’s wife could be so beautiful.
“Did I give you a choice?! You still dare to hold a f*cking knife? Do you really think I’m scared?”
“Brothers, seize them! In a while, let’s enjoy ourselves! I’ve never tasted such a woman in my life.” Third Brother laughed and grabbed Xu Xinrong!
Jiang Bei suddenly raised the knife and stabbed him!
“Argh!!”
An ear-piercing scream immediately echoed through the room.
A bone-deep wound had already appeared on Third Brother’s arm, and blood instantly gushed out.
“Bam!”
At the same time, a skinny man rushed over to Jiang Bei and struck Jiang Bei’s back with a club.
It happened almost at the same time. Jiang Bei took the hit in order to buy a bit of time for his wife and daughter.
Jiang Bei staggered two steps and almost spat out a mouthful of blood, but he forcefully held it back.
He swallowed the mouthful of blood. The smell of blood and the pain in his chest stimulated his nerves again.
He could fall at any time, but he couldn’t!
“Daddy, daddy…” Tears welled up in Jiang Xiaowan’s eyes.. She rushed over and used her small body to support Jiang Bei.
