Taking advantage of the beauty being poor, fooling her into being my girlfriend

Chapter 681: Chapter 681: The Pig Opponent Delivers an Assist

Bai Hong looked at the Patriarch of the Bai Family lying on the hospital bed and suddenly made a shocking statement, “Father, you are also getting on in years.

Now plagued by illness, you won’t live many more days.

Rather than living in such pain, it would be better if your sons sent you on your way early.”

The Patriarch of the Bai Family’s eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at his youngest son, “What did you say?!”

The other members of the Bai Family all turned to Bai Hong, startled by his audacious remarks.

A crazed look appeared on Bai Hong’s face as he grinned and looked at everyone, “You all heard what he just said.

He wants us to come up with tens of billions.

After taking out so much money, how are we supposed to live afterward?

So, I suggest we send Father off today and let us manage the family—it would be better that way.”

“You… you… you!” The Patriarch of the Bai Family pointed at Bai Hong, his anger causing his blood pressure to skyrocket and the machines to start beeping.

And the other members of the Bai Family each had shifting expressions in their eyes.

It was obvious they were tempted.

Indeed.

Surrendering now would be too humiliating.

Futhermore, the idea of them parting with such a large sum of money was absolutely impossible.

At this moment, they were all persuaded by Bai Hong.

One by one, the expressions of those looking at the Patriarch of the Bai Family changed.

The Patriarch’s heart sank continuously, “You… you really want to commit such a monstrous act of unfilial piety?”

The eldest son of the Bai Family took a step forward, expressionless, “Father, your way of thinking is outdated.

And as the third brother said, your health is no longer what it was.

You are just hanging on for dear life; wouldn’t it be better to be released from this sooner rather than later, don’t you think?”

The second son of the Bai Family had a look of struggle on his face, but it quickly turned sinister.

He also took a step forward and said venomously, “Father, go in peace.

We will not come up with the money; it is the foundation of our standing.

The Bai Family will not be without us; we will defeat Jiang Xu!”

As for the rest of the Bai Family, they each remained silent.

Clearly, they agreed with Bai Hong’s proposal.

It is so.

Each of them has already grown accustomed to a life of luxury, sumptuous banquets, and indulgence.

To travel is always in various luxury cars, private jets, or yachts and the like.

Asking them to downgrade their lifestyle is like killing them.

Plus, now that the old Patriarch is in this condition, they’ve begun to harbor improper thoughts.

Without the old Patriarch, no one would control them anymore and they could also get a share of his wealth.

They could become even richer and squander without restraint.

With these thoughts, the looks they gave the old Patriarch were devoid of any shred of guilt.

“Unfilial children, monsters!” The Patriarch of the Bai Family’s face was full of despair. He cursed out loud, “If you dare to commit patricide, you will definitely face retribution!”

They didn’t care about any retribution.

They knew that without the old Patriarch, there were only benefits and no drawbacks.

Thus, the sons were already prepared to remove the oxygen tube.

“Bang!”

However, just at that moment, the door of the hospital room was pushed open.

More than a dozen burly men rushed in.

Before the members of the Bai Family could react, they had already started protecting the old Patriarch.

Then…

Jiang Xu walked in.

Seeing Jiang Xu, everyone’s expressions changed dramatically.

They started to scold him.

“What are you doing here!”

“Get out, or else we’re going to be in trouble (homophone: hug tightly)!”

“`

“Did you hear me? Get out now!”

…

Rather than anger, it was fear that predominated.

At such a critical moment, Jiang Xu’s sudden intrusion had instilled fear in them.

They must get rid of him quickly and then deal with the old Patriarch.

Jiang Xu, of course, would not leave.

However, he hadn’t expected that by placing his own people in the major hospitals before making a move against the Bai Family, they would be able to play such a significant role.

He had felt that once they announced action against the Bai Family, the Patriarch of the Bai Family would surely be outraged enough to be hospitalized.

So, he had placed his people in all the high-end hospitals in Magic City in advance.

They knew right away that the Patriarch of the Bai Family was staying here.

Then, when the nurse came in, they installed a bug under his bed.

Initially, Jiang Xu’s intention was to listen in for some Bai Family secrets to use against them.

Who would have thought that he would actually hear the explosive news about the Patriarch’s sons wanting to patricide?

He immediately changed his mind, brought people over, and was determined to protect the Patriarch of the Bai Family.

And when the Patriarch saw Jiang Xu, it was as though he had seen his own grandson.

Overwhelmed with joy, he cried out loudly, “Save me, Mr. Jiang, please save me!”

The Patriarch of the Bai Family was only in his sixties now.

Rich people consume only the best of everything.

Under normal circumstances, living to eighty or ninety years old would be a breeze.

Naturally, the Patriarch also did not wish to die so easily.

Bai Hong and the others panicked at this scene.

They tried to break through the bodyguards’ defense line to pull out the Patriarch’s oxygen tube.

But against these towering and formidable bodyguards, it was futile.

Jiang Xu closed the door and made a gesture.

The bodyguards immediately took action.

In less than five minutes, all members of the Bai Family were lying on the ground.

They were bound with ropes and had cloth gags stuffed in their mouths.

Only then did the hospital room quiet down.

Jiang Xu walked up to the Patriarch, smiling, and said, “I did not expect that someone as wise as you would end up in such a situation.”

“Alas, maybe this is retribution,” the Patriarch, seeing that his life was no longer in immediate danger, relaxed a bit.

He said with a wry smile, “Perhaps I did quite a few bad things in the first half of my life, and now retribution has come upon me.”

Jiang Xu didn’t believe a word.

None who rose to this position were weak or incapable.

Now, these words were said merely to make Jiang Xu pity him.

“Let’s talk serious,” Jiang Xu spoke indifferently. “If you want me to save you, you need to show some sincerity.”

“Ten billion,” the Patriarch held up a finger. “Whether you want cash or an equivalent in assets or shares is fine.”

Ten billion for his life was a high price indeed.

Having said that, he stared fixedly at Jiang Xu.

He was already prepared for Jiang Xu to raise the price.

After all, they were faced with a three-way siege.

Divided among them, each would only earn a little over three billion.

However, to his surprise, Jiang Xu did not ask for more.

He smiled and said, “Okay, then ten billion it is.

But in addition, I have another requirement.”

The Patriarch grew solemn: “Tell me, as long as it’s within my capacity, I will satisfy it.”

“You can certainly do it,” Jiang Xu’s face revealed a trace of an inscrutable expression. “Perhaps you have already guessed what I’m about to say.”

The Patriarch’s face changed slightly, “Could it be that you mean…”
