Return To The Past: I Won't Choose Humility This Time! - Chapter 234

Chapter 234: Zhao Biao’s Ruthlessness

The matter of cheating in exams was over, and Li Jun had not come to school for the past few days.

Someone who had been waiting in the dark at Yun Xi’s house was getting impatient.

Zhao Biao had discussed with Wu Mei the other day that they would work together to squeeze out the Yun family’s assets, but it had been almost a week, and Wu Mei still had not made any movements.

The debt collectors were pressing Zhao Biao. He did not dare to go home and was just waiting for Wu Mei to give him the money. Nonetheless, Wu Mei’s life was very comfortable, and she had probably forgotten about Zhao Biao.

On this day, Wu Mei went out to buy some soy sauce. When she reached the small alley, she was once again pinned against the wall by Zhao Biao.

“Look at you. You’ve been eating well these few days. I’m afraid you’ve become a member of the Yun family. You’ve long forgotten about me,” Zhao Biao said as he pinched Wu Mei’s face.

“I haven’t…” Wu Mei began to explain in fear.

“You haven’t? Why didn’t you come to find me these few days? Why didn’t I see the money you promised me?!”

Zhao Biao was not stupid. He could not be fooled with just a few words.

“Listen to me. There’s a reason for this,” Wu Mei quickly explained.

…

“Tell me, what reason do you have this time?!” Zhao Biao’s strength increased. He wanted to tear Wu Mei’s face off.

“I know a secret. The house that Yun Shan’s family is living in now doesn’t belong to them, and their family doesn’t have much money. The house that their family is living in now actually belongs to that man, Zhou Lin. The one who’s really rich is Zhou Lin.”

Hearing Wu Mei’s words, Zhao Biao was deep in thought.

“Why don’t we give up on scheming against Yun Shan and do it to Zhou Lin instead?” Wu Mei suggested.

At that time, Wu Mei and Zhao Biao had been plotting. Wu Mei would make Yun Shan go onto the bed and pretend that he had raped her. This way, Wu Mei could use this as an excuse to extort a large sum of hush money from Yun Shan. Otherwise, Zhao Biao would take the matter to the police station to settle it.

Presumably, Yun Shan’s family would also choose to settle the matter privately for the sake of their reputation.

“You damn woman, what are you thinking?!” Zhao Biao let out a mocking laugh.

“How old is Zhou Lin now? How old are you? He’s elegant and handsome. Will he take a fancy to an old and frail housewife like you? If you lay on the same bed with him, outsiders might not necessarily say anything about it. Who do you think is taking advantage of you?!”

Zhao Biao did not give Wu Mei any face at all.

“You…”

Wu Mei did not expect Zhao Biao’s words to be so vicious.

“Here, I got this knockout drug from a friend on the black market. As long as you put this in Yun Shan’s food, he’ll faint in less than five minutes. Let’s stick to the original plan.”

Zhao Biao placed a small porcelain bottle in Wu Mei’s hand.

“But Yun Shan doesn’t have much money. It might not be enough for us to repay the debt.” Wu Mei was still a little unwilling to hurt Yun Shan.

“Are you stupid? Although the two of them might not have much money, it’s obvious that their son-in-law isn’t a pushover. I don’t believe that he won’t lend a helping hand when his father-in-law is in trouble. They only need one capable person in the family. We just need to stick to the original plan.”

Zhao Biao’s tone was threatening.

“Okay then.” Wu Mei squeezed the small porcelain bottle in her hand and agreed.

“The debt collectors are already at our door. My patience is limited. If you can’t squeeze money out of this family in three days, don’t blame me for selling you to the debt collectors!”

Zhao Biao touched Wu Mei’s face. A fierce look could be seen in his eyes.

“Well, I’m sure I can get the money.”

Wu Mei also panicked. Zhao Biao was getting desperate.

If he was cornered by the debt collectors, he would do something unconscionable.
