Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Li family members argued non-stop. Each of them wanted to be the one to go home. Whoever went back to retrieve the money that Old Madam Li had saved up over the years definitely would not return to the capital. The person would just take the money and run away.

Qiao Mei watched quietly as the Li family members quarreled and fought with one another. She was not in a hurry and just took it that the Li family members were putting on a “clown performance” for her.

“Enough!” Old Madam Li shouted.

“Mom! What are you doing!” Li Tao said.

“Qiao Mei, let me tell you the truth. We don’t have that much money. The most that our family can pool together is 200 dollars. You can kill or torture us however you want. Just give us a quick death!” Old Madam Li said as she looked at Qiao Mei.

“My mother’s illness needs treatment. Every minute and second is money. Since you can’t afford to pay for the medical fees and the subsequent treatment fees, you can give me something as collateral. I remember that your family has two houses in the countryside, so you can use the houses to repay the debt,” Qiao Mei said.

“No! How can we use the houses to repay the debt! I don’t agree!” Li Dong said agitatedly.

Old Madam Li indeed had two houses in her possession. She lived in one house and the other one was the new house that Old Madam Li had spent a lot of money to build for Li Dong when he got married.

“The combined value of your two houses is not even 2,000 dollars. I’m already being lenient by letting you use it as collateral. Otherwise, I can send all of you to stay at the police station for a few days. With the current amount of money you owe me and the assault case, it’s possible that you’ll be sentenced to between half a year and a year’s jail,” Qiao Mei said.

“Don’t try to scare us! I don’t believe what you say!” Old Madam Li said in a panic.

“Whether I’m scaring you or not, you can use your brains and think about it. I’ve given you enough time. You can either fork out 6,000 dollars for the medical fees or transfer the two houses to my mother to repay the debt. It’s up to you,” Qiao Mei said.

The Li family members argued for a long time and in the end, they had no choice but to agree to Qiao Mei’s request and transfer the houses to Li Gui. In fact, Li Gui was doing very well in the capital now and could buy any luxury house she wanted. She would not have any interest in the Li family’s two houses at all.

“We won’t take back the houses for the time being. You can still continue to live there, provided that you don’t appear in front of us again from now on. Otherwise, I can get the police to chase you out of the houses in the countryside at any time,” Qiao Mei said.

“I’ll remember that ” Old Madam Li said dejectedly.

After settling the Li family, it was time to deal with the Zhang family. Qiao Mei strode to the warehouse next door, where Zhang Qian and Zhang Cong were locked up.

When the two men saw Qiao Mei, they were stunned for a moment. Then, Zhang Qian glared fiercely at Qiao Mei and said, “B*tch! I just know it’s you! Kill me if you have the guts!”

“What good will it do me to kill you? You still owe me 6,000 dollars. It won’t be too late for you to die after you pay me back,” Qiao Mei said calmly.

Zhang Qian immediately understood why Qiao Mei had captured them. He said, “You’re already big bosses now, why are you so calculative about this 6,000 dollars! You’re only forcing us to our deaths!”

“I worked very hard to earn my money. If it is anyone else, I won’t mind spending 6,000 dollars in exchange for a few auspicious phrases, but for you guys, I don’t want to waste even a single cent! Besides, you even gave up Zhang Wei and the other children for that few thousand dollars back then. Do you regret it now?” Qiao Mei said mockingly.

“What’s there to regret! Even if I die! The four brats are still my children! I’m their biological father and they have to take care of me in my old age!” Zhang Qian said shamelessly.

Qiao Mei brought over the agreement which Zhang Qian had signed back then. She pointed at the words on it and said, “It’s written here clearly in black and white. Stop daydreaming. Oh right! Their surname is Li now, not Zhang,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

“B*tch! It’s all because of you! If you hadn’t urged Li Gui to divorce me! I wouldn’t have ended up in this state!” Zhang Qian roared furiously.

“You should do some self-reflection and think about how you get yourself into this situation. I didn’t force you to divorce my mother. Don’t tell me that you have lost your memory?”

“Back then, you were the one who insisted on divorcing my mother. You were also the one who accepted money in exchange for the children. You were also the one who kidnapped Zhang Chao and Zhang Qin! All I did was to save them from that vampire’s den. What’s wrong with that?” Qiao Mei said.
