Chapter 1 Chaos KTV

  In the ward of the Municipal People's Hospital, Gao Longsheng was in low spirits. His little wife Xu Lin was busy running back and forth, feeling despondent at heart. The illness was one thing, but what made Xu Lin, a woman who loved vanity, feel even more lost was that after two days in hospital, how many of those friends had come to visit?

  Gao Longsheng is no longer the boss of Hengtai Real Estate, and his influence in both the black and white worlds has greatly declined. The news of Huang Fahong's divorce has also led people to suspect that Gao Longsheng has committed a crime. If so, who would want to be tainted by this plague god's evil aura?

  Of course, even the most ruthless and heartless Gao Wei was now guarding his bedside. His hands were empty of money, and those friends had long since scattered. Moreover, Huang Jing's departure did not bring him much relief. He thought that he had been entangled by Huang Jing before, but now he felt a little lost after seeing her leave without any attachment yesterday. It was the first time Gao Wei had been dumped, as he usually played with women and then threw them away.

  Actually, at the beginning, Huang Jing thought Gao Wei was quite good - his family background was not bad and his "technique" was also not bad. However, recently, Huang Fa Hong had already made a move in advance, introducing a young rich businessman who came to invest to Huang Jing in every possible way. What kind of person is Huang Jing? They talked for less than half a month and directly went to bed together. Now this young rich businessman's "technique" is not inferior to Gao Wei's. As for reputation, it's obvious that he is many times better than Gao Wei.

  What's more, this young rich man from outside didn't know Huang Jing's "great reputation" and even took pride in having connections with the municipal leaders - it was simply a perfect match.

  Now that the Gao family has no money, what is Huang Jing still nostalgic about with Gao Wei? Of course, they parted ways. In a strange coincidence, on another rainy night, Huang Jing eloped with the young rich businessman and directly dealt a crushing blow to Gao Wei.

  On the sickbed, haggard Gao Longsheng called Gao Wei to his bedside, with a sorrowful face: "In Jiangning, we can't stay hidden anymore. Bai Jingchu and Yi Jun are all ruthless people. Like Zhang Ziqiang, even more ruthless - once traitors become desperate, they will be more merciless than ordinary opponents. Plus I've offended many others before, it's not good!"

  Gao Wei was so scared that his face turned pale, while Xu Lin patted Gao Longsheng's shoulder: "Longsheng, what nonsense are you talking about? Just focus on recovering from your illness. If things don't work out, we can move to the provincial city."

  "Move?" Gao Longsheng said bitterly, "That also requires getting back the 10 million borrowed from Qianye. If you leave Jiangning penniless, which of you two can endure starting over again?"

  Xu Lin also knew that the 10 million yuan borrowed by Qiang was the last capital of Gao Longsheng. Except for that, there is only a solitary villa left - it's hard to afford even if you live there for a long time. "Longsheng, do you think Qiang is trying to welch on the debt?"

  "It's hard to say!" Gao Longsheng sighed, "In the past, I thought I had a relationship with Huang Fahong and was brothers with Zhang Ziqiang, and I was also the boss of Hengtai. Who would have thought that Zhang Ziqiang would dare to offend me? But now the situation has completely turned around, who knows what Zhang Ziqiang will think?"

  Gao Wei and Xu Lin couldn't help but shudder at the thought that if this last lifeline of money was gone, they would be in big trouble.

  Then Gao Longsheng made a phone call to Qiang Qiang again. No one answered the first three calls, and it wasn't until the fourth call that Qiang Qiang spoke up: "Brother Longsheng, something's up?"

  Gao Longsheng knew something was off as soon as he heard it - what kind of joke are you telling, don't you know what's going on? But for the time being, Gao Longsheng didn't dare to speak harshly: "Qiang Ge, brother is having a streak of bad luck right now and is in the hospital. If you have some extra money, could you please send some over first? At least let me get treated and let my family live."

  "Are you ill? What's wrong with you?" Zhang Yaqiang was shocked. In fact, the news of Gao Long's illness had already spread, and Zhang Yaqiang pretended not to know.

  Gao Longsheng shook his head and simply said a few words, without mentioning too much about the Huang Fahong incident. When Gao Longsheng still asked for the debt, Kou Qiang was very embarrassed and said: "Old brother, you also know my situation. If I had spare money, would your brother have helped me so generously in the first place? It's really helpless... But since it's come to this point, I'll have to scrape together some money. Five million is all I can do... Otherwise, let your wife take that IOU I wrote and settle with my finance department?"

  Gao Longsheng's heart was as clear as a mirror - son of a bitch, this tone is clearly going to swallow the other 5 million!

  Gao Longsheng's heart skipped a beat, as if he had been stabbed with a knife. But fortunately, the originally expected Wu Qiang would not admit anything at all, and now he was willing to pay back half of it. Five million, which was indeed not much for him in the past, but now it was life-saving money. With this five million, he could barely spend the rest of his life.

  On the other hand, if Qiang is really a one-in-a-million genius, what can he do with his talent?

  I have no choice but to accept it!

  So, I repeatedly warned and handed the IOU to Xu Lin, telling her not to get too entangled. If Qiangyao is willing to pay back the remaining 50 million, that would be for the best. If that kid doesn't want to pay back, then we'll just accept it.

  Xu Lin thought to herself that this underground circle was really dark, one knife cut and it would be a split. But Gao Longsheng had this opinion, she was just a weak woman, what could she say? She could only lament her own bitter fate, at such a young age she had originally hoped to marry a billionaire, but in the end she accidentally married a multimillionaire old man.

  Holding the IOU that Qiang had forcibly signed, Xu Lin carefully made her way to Qiang's headquarters. After finding the finance department, they told her that such a large transaction required approval from General Manager Hong (Qiang). As a result, Xu Lin waited anxiously in the reception room for another half hour, worried that Qiang was playing tricks on her and intentionally avoiding her. Fortunately, after half an hour, Qiang finally arrived at the company.

  "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, something came up on the way." Qian said with a forced smile, inviting Xu Lin into his office and asking his secretary to serve tea, showing unexpected enthusiasm which made Xu Lin feel more at ease.

  Of course, then comes the complaint, saying how tight their funds are now. Xu Lin was disdainful in her heart, thinking that it's all just an excuse to shirk off the 5 million debt.

  Finally, Qiang said: "Sister-in-law, it's not that brothers don't understand human feelings, nor is it that brothers don't know the difficulties of your family, but really can't afford it. I'll scrape together 5 million cash first, and the rest..."

  Xu Lin didn't say anything, just listened to you talk nonsense.

  "Alright, I'll let you off with the remaining 5 million. Brother, write another IOU for me, and give Dragon and his brother some more time."

  Alright, you're really bold! You've got guts! At least you didn't say no to paying back.
