C72

The moment the man finished his words, the few men who were still struggling in the room immediately walked out and slowly surrounded the two of them.

Huo Chen Xin subconsciously blocked the way for his mother, opened his almond eyes wide and pretended to be fierce as he shouted, "Huo Zhong is in charge of his own matters, he is in charge of it!"

She was actually scared to death. Who knew what these tall and sturdy men in front of her would do when they became angry. She had her mother behind her. If this really went wrong, her mother would be dragged into it as well.

"Actually, there are other ways. It's fine if you don't want to mortgage the house," the man leading the group scratched his chin and looked at Huo Chen Xin from top to bottom, his eyes filled with blasphemy. "Then, give us the person."

The man extended his hand to touch Huo Chen Xin's little face, but before his finger could even touch her, it was cut off by half. Looking at the man who suddenly stood in front of him and the lady, he said unkindly: "Bro, are you trying to meddle in my business?"

When Huo Chen Xin thought that she would be humiliated by the man for nothing, Sheng Xing Yu suddenly stood in front of her, blocking the man's hand. She was both happy and surprised, she never thought that the man would actually follow and act once again.

"A group of men bullied two women," Sheng Xing Yu tightly gripped onto the man's wrist, forcing him to not move at all, "Even if it's not possible."

Seeing that he was unable to take back Sheng Xing Yu's hand, the man was clearly embarrassed, but he could not suppress his anger. He immediately held back his smile and said fiercely: "Bro, it's only right that we pay back the debts we owe them. I'm afraid that it's not us who are bullying them, it's just them who think that us brothers are easy to bully."

Sheng Xing Yu gently turned her head and looked at Huo Chen Xin behind her. She had her head buried in her, and her lips were so red that blood was almost coming out from her mouth.

She was still very young. Facing such a violent action, she did not know how to respond. She had a completely helpless look on her face. A child of her age shouldn't have to bear such a chastisement, yet she had to use her thin shoulders to carry it.

He turned around and calmly gazed at the leading man as he slowly asked, "How much?"

"How much?" The man was stunned for a moment before revealing an arrogant smile, "Bro, let me give you a word of advice. A hero saving a beauty depends on the situation. Do you know how much you need? Be careful not to screw over a hero."

Chen Lan watched anxiously from behind, Huo Zhong was the one who was in charge of causing the mess, in the end, it was all pushed onto himself and Huo Chen Xin, the bastard was out and free.

Father Huo left early and threw the two young children to her. She was usually too busy to keep her mouth shut so she didn't have the time to slowly teach them.

Huo Chen Xin, on the other hand, followed his father's well-behaved and sensible personality. Since his age of understanding, he had helped him do things by his side and saved himself a lot of trouble.

Huo Zhong, on the other hand, was different. He didn't listen to the rules and hung out with the hoodlums outside. He had long since left school and had learnt his bad habits.

Chen Lan worried a lot about him, but she still needed to live her life, so she really couldn't spare much energy. In the end, after a year had passed, Huo Zhong became even more arrogant, and actually stole the family's money to gamble.

She pushed all the debts she owed to the mother and daughter. She had put everything aside clearly, so how could she not be upset about it?

"What money!" Chen Lan was so angry that tears almost flowed out, and shouted, "If she wants money, go find Huo Zhong, pay for his own debt!"

However, the man only gave her a look of contempt before ignoring her and trying to pull his hand away.

"How much?" Sheng Xing Yu was so shocked that he could not move at all, and calmly repeated his words.

Seeing that the other party was trying to outdo him, the man stared at him impatiently, "1.5 million, I can't lose a single cent. Can you afford it? If you can't afford it, go away. Don't hold me back!"

Hearing this number, not to mention Chen Lan, Huo Chen Xin could not help but to inhale a breath of cold air. She only knew that Huo Zhong owed someone a lot of money, but she didn't know it would cost a whole 1.5 million.

"How is that possible?" Chen Lan was almost unable to stand steadily, she staggered a few steps, and was supported by Huo Chen Xin who was beside him: "How can she owe me so much?"

Even if she didn't eat or drink for twenty years, she probably wouldn't be able to earn that much money.

Sensing that the other party had slowly let go of his hand, the man thought that he was scared by this figure and couldn't help but to let out a snort. He rubbed his hand that was painful from being clawed and sneered, "Auntie, we are already very friendly.

How could there be such a cheap deal to do? In fact, the man had already come up with an idea.

"The government is going to overhaul this area. After three months, they are going to mobilize and demolish the building. By then, the house will probably be worth far more than 1.5 million yuan." Sheng Xing Yu's voice was calm, but it carried a sense of assurance that was difficult to doubt.

As if he never expected the other party to know of this inside information, the man froze on the spot, exchanged glances with the helpers behind him, and waved his hand impatiently. "In any case, I'm in debt. Stop putting on an act here and waste your time! "

A few men rushed into the room as they spoke, looking like they were about to throw out a bunch of junk to show off.

Chen Lan almost cried out, "Don't throw it away, don't throw it away!" However, it was to no avail. The other side didn't want to let it go. The more she threw it, the more she worked.

"Stop throwing it," Sheng Xing Yu looked at that scene, and then frowned as he took out a stack of cheques from his body. After writing it down, he tore it down, and indicated to the man, "One million and five hundred thousand."

The man looked down at the cheque in disdain, as if he couldn't believe what he had just heard. He then sneered, "Such a straightforward cheque, it can't be an empty cheque, right?"

"You're looking for me if you can't get a single cent less." Sheng Xing Yu no longer had the usual smile in his eyes, the biting cold in his eyes made people apprehensive.

The man was speechless. He took the cheque and looked at it unhappily, but could not find anything wrong with it. He could only call out the people in the room, glare at them, and quickly left.

"Hurry up and leave. They won't be able to find you in a while, even you will be implicated."

Seeing that group of people leaving in a hurry, Chen Lan did not let them go at all. She thought Sheng Xing Yu had only used a fake cheque to trick them into leaving, but there was no time for her to be grateful.

"It's fine, Auntie," Sheng Xing Yu turned around and comforted her, "The cheque is real."

After hearing the other party's reply, Chen Lan was actually stunned in place, and in just a few words, she had already passed the one million five hundred thousand to the man. Just who was Sheng Xing Yu to make such an extravagant move, and what kind of relationship did he have with Huo Chen Xin?

Before he could finish speaking, Huo Chen Xin who had been silent all this while suddenly said softly: "Mom, you go in first."
