Zhu Weida laughed, "Miss Ji, tis have changed for you. In the past, you had money to spare; you'd just delay paynt for a few days if you wanted. But now, it's different. Your company's troubles have spread; your cash flow is about to break."
"You opened so many stores across the country, and now you've encountered problems, haven't you? It's tough running physical stores these days, and you're heading for trouble. Once the cash flow stops, you won't be able to keep up, right?"
Ji i's complexion turned sowhat pale, "Don't worry, President Zhu. Even if my cash flow is cut off, I, Ji i, will repay the debt, even if I have to pawn everything I have."
Zhu Weida sneered, "No need for you to pawn anything. I find this villa quite nice. It should cover the cost of my goods. Otherwise, just mortgage the villa to ."
"What are you talking about? This is my ho. It's not sothing you can just take because you want it. If you want money, I'll give you money, but don't be so arrogant toward ." Ji i was furious upon hearing Zhu Weida's words.
Zhu Weida sneered, "Fine, I want money—cash or card, either works." At which point, the people beside him promptly brought out a POS machine, clearly prepared in advance.
"President Zhu, are you joking? You think a transaction of over a million yuan can be done with a POS machine?" Ji i said.
"What's so strange about that? There's no limit on my POS machine. As long as you have money, you can make the paynt. I just worry your bank card doesn't have the funds," Zhu Weida taunted.
Ji i's expression was as still as water. She turned and went to another room, returning shortly with a bag, which she placed on the table in front of Zhu Weida.
"Here is one hundred thousand yuan. Take this for now. I'll pay you the rest in a couple of days."
The others all laughed, "Ji i, are you joking with ? Bringing one hundred thousand yuan like it's alms. When will you give the rest? Give a specific date."
After a mont of thought, Ji i responded, "I will definitely give it to you by next Monday."
Zhu Weida's face darkened, "Next Monday is still several days away. If this amount of money were in the bank, the daily interest alone would be significant. Why should I give you these extra days?"
The anger on Ji i's face was evident, "Fine, I will pay you the interest when the ti cos."
"I don't care about the interest. Our contract clearly states the last possible date for paynt—only one month's delay is allowed, and today is the last day. If you don't pay today, I will sue you."
Zhu Weida looked Ji i up and down with a smile, "If we sue you, your company will definitely go bankrupt."
Ji i spoke angrily, "Zhu Weida, don't push too far. A few million yuan isn't even a big deal in my eyes."
"Of course, I know a few million yuan is nothing to you, but you don't have it now, do you? And tomorrow will be too late," Zhu Weida said with a smile.
Ji i looked at Zhu Weida furiously, "What exactly do you want?"
Zhu Weida scoffed, "Miss Ji, you know what I want. I pursued you when we started working together two years ago."
Ji i was taken aback; indeed, she rembered Zhu Weida had courted her, but she had rejected him. She hadn't expected him to bring it up again today.
"You want to pursue ?"
Zhu Weida laughed, "Sorry, that was in the past. Now that you have neither money nor many people who rember you, what's the point in pursuing you? However, if you're willing to spend one night with , I could extend the deadline for you by a few days."
Upon hearing this, Ji i beca furious, "Zhu Weida, you wish."
Zhu Weida chuckled, "Ji i, aside from your body still being worth sothing, what else do you have? No one recognizes you when you act on TV, your company is on the verge of bankruptcy, and you can't even repay your debts. What can you do?"
"Even if I were so poor I had to sell my pots and pans, you won't get your way," Ji i said furiously.
Zhu Weida laughed, "Ji i, why are you so foolish? You're at the pri age, if you find a backer now, would you still need to struggle on your own later?"
"Mind your own business!" Ji i snapped back angrily.
Seeing Ji i's resolute deanor, Zhu Weida got angry too, "Ji i, you really are ungrateful. Don't think you're worth that much, there are plenty of younger and prettier won around. If they had a little problem, they'd be a di a dozen in the stations."
"If you don't pay today, you'll either let have you for a good ti or we won't leave and will take you to court first thing tomorrow morning."
Ji i said angrily, "Don't push people too far, if you don't leave, I'll call the police."
"I'm just asking for the money I'm owed, how is that going too far? Go on and call the police. We'll post this matter online imdiately, 'Big Star Ji i owes money and refuses to pay, causing a police incident,' let's see who suffers more."
"You... you're despicable."
"Ji i, I think you'd better listen to . Sleep with just for this night, and I won't press you for the paynt so urgently afterward. What do you say?"
After saying that, Zhu Weida reached out his hand, trying to pull Ji i towards him.
But Ji i struggled desperately, "Zhu Weida, just drop dead. Even if I die, you won't have a chance."
Zhu Weida got sowhat angry, "Today, you have no say in this. Guys, hold her down for ."
Two n rushed over and imdiately grabbed Ji i. Now that she couldn't move, Zhu Weida looked over Ji i's curvy body, with a sleazy drool forming at the corner of his mouth.
"Ji i, with your figure and looks, why don't I introduce you to a few big bosses? You could pay off the debt in just two or three etings," he suggested.
"To hell with that, go die," Ji i retorted as she lifted her leg and kicked Zhu Weida right where it hurt.
Zhu Weida winced in pain, "You bitch, today I'll show you what I'm made of."
"Oh my, have the thugs broken into the house?" Suddenly, a voice appeared, causing Zhu Weida to flinch. He clearly hadn't expected another person to be in the house.
They had done their howork before coming; Ji i's ho was usually occupied by just one person, which is why they had been so brazen with her. So the appearance of another person in Ji i's house caught them off guard.
Ji i also felt embarrassed. It was supposed to be just a dinner with Ling Zhenfei; who would have thought sothing like this would happen? It was incredibly shaful.
Ji i was even afraid to look at Ling Zhenfei. She wished the person who had appeared in the kitchen was not Ling Zhenfei but a maid or soone similar—anybody but Ling Zhenfei.
"Who are you?" Zhu Weida asked, looking surprised at Ling Zhenfei.
Ling Zhenfei glanced at himself and said, "Who do you think I am?"
Zhu Weida looked at Ling Zhenfei, then at Ji i, and suddenly realized, "So Miss Ji has found herself a pretty-boy boyfriend, eh? Not bad. Since that's the case, shouldn't you be the one to pay Ji i's debts?"
Ling Zhenfei nodded, "Of course, that's possible, but I saw you laying hands on Ji i just now. How should we deal with that?"
Zhu Weida sneered, "So what if I laid hands on her? You have no grounds to stand on if you owe money."
