In fact, Ye Xuan was never afraid of any opponent, including the Sword God.
Even though this legendary expert of the Northern Federation was recognized worldwide as powerful, Ye Xuan was not afraid at all. It was just the state of the Sword God, filled with killing intent but devoid of hostility, that made Ye Xuan a bit worried.
He was concerned that in a true duel, he might not be able to strike.
Even without Chiba Sakurako’s recent antics, Ye Xuan might not be able to act.
Ye Xuan was just that peculiar kind of person.
No fear of strong enemies, no dread of troublemakers.
The only thing he feared was soone like the Sword God, who had a high sense of righteousness and pride, soone truly worthy of respect.
"Alas, it’s so hard for ."
Ye Xuan shook his head to himself, deciding not to think about it any further.
...
The Sword God had already begun inviting many heroes of the Martial Arts world to arrive at Canglang Island in seven days as witnesses to his duel with Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan, however, seed carefree, as if unaware of anything, continuing his happy routine.
Su Yumo worked overnight, calculating all the debts of the Su Family’s relatives, which totaled around 170,000 yuan.
Ye Xuan thought for half an hour and finally decided to ask Leng Qiuge for money, after all... this young woman was not only the richest but also the most demanding; we couldn’t keep supplying for free every day, could we?
So, Ye Xuan asked Leng Qiuge for a million, gave Su Yumo 200,000, and kept the remaining 800,000 as personal savings.
These days, the cost of living in a big city is getting higher and higher. For the Eastern Group, Ye Xuan has almost emptied everything. Without so money saved, it would be embarrassing not to be able to invite a beautiful woman out for a al.
Su Yumo used Ye Xuan’s 200,000 to transfer to the Su Family’s creditors, paying off the debts including interest.
The relatives were overjoyed.
Su Qinian also called, expressing his most sincere thanks and affection to Ye Xuan.
Su Yumo was relieved.
"Whew!"
Having finished all this, Su Yumo exhaled heavily in front of the office’s floor-to-ceiling window, then stretched comfortably and said, "Finally, it’s all sorted. From now on, I just need to focus on repaying you."
Ye Xuan, lying on the sofa, casually said, "You owe 200,000, make sure to write an IOU."
"Oh right, I almost forgot to write the IOU!"
Su Yumo suddenly realized, slapped her forehead, hurried to the desk, took out a sheet of A4 paper, and ticulously wrote down the IOU, signed her elegant na, and stamped it with her delicate handprint.
Ye Xuan rolled his eyes; this woman was really...
"Here, this is the IOU, keep it safe!" Su Yumo handed the IOU to Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan glanced at it: "Pay off within half a year?"
"Yes." Su Yumo smiled and said, "I calculated it in advance. My salary is a little over 30,000 a month, and including full attendance and year-end bonuses, I will have around 210,000 by then. Spending 10,000 as living expenses should suffice."
"Only 10,000 for half a year?" Ye Xuan stared: "Yumo, are you crazy or am I? You, a woman, using that little in half a year?"
Not to ntion basic expenses like als, clothes, or rent, won just spending on skincare products would exceed 10,000 in half a year, right?
"10,000 for half a year, it should be enough." Su Yumo pursed her lips and said, "I’m not soone who likes to spend money. If you give more, I wouldn’t know how to use it."
"That won’t do, as my woman, living such a poor life, would that not be disgraceful to ?" Ye Xuan said displeasedly, "Change it from half a year to a year."
"Ah..." Su Yumo had a sullen expression.
"What do you an ’Ah’? I’m the creditor; I’m the biggest." Ye Xuan said forcefully, "If you insist on paying it off in half a year and end up thin and poorly maintained, I’d have to dump you."
"Fine then." Su Yumo pouted grievance: "Let’s change it to a year then."
As she spoke, Su Yumo was about to change the IOU content.
At that mont, Ye Xuan swiftly embraced her.
The sudden imbalance made Su Yumo exclaim, "Ye Xuan, what are you doing?"
"No hurry to change the IOU; you owe so much money; shouldn’t you pay so interest first?" Ye Xuan’s charming laughter rang out.
Su Yumo blushed, suddenly feeling weak all over.
In just three days, Su Jie was on the verge of collapse.
Three days ago, he, Su Jie, the godson of Leopard-Ye, was so glorious, so unbeatable.
So many people flattered him and treated him like a star, so many people tried to ingratiate themselves with him?
But life is full of surprises.
Who would have thought he, once so glorious, would fall from grace due to a mont of greed?
Greed knows no bounds, just as the snake swallows the elephant - causes have consequences!
In hindsight, all Su Jie felt was agonizing regret.
Not to ntion that Su Qinian had already repaid the money. Even if not, there’s no need to make such a big fuss, is there? Just a few days ago, such numbers wouldn’t have ant anything to him.
Just because of greed, because he thought Su Qinian’s son-in-law was rich and easy to extort, he was tempted, bringing about lifelong regret.
Now, the flood washed away the Dragon King Temple, and instead of successfully extorting, he paid a heavy price.
Leopard-Ye ordered anyone daring to help Su Jie would be his enemy.
Three nights ago, Su Jie was still in the hospital, when Eastern Group’s legal team delivered him a lawyer’s letter, and upon seeing the hefty compensation he faced, Su Jie fainted on the spot.
Family should be united and face matters together.
Su Jie’s parents resolutely stepped forward, putting forth their life’s savings, only to find it insufficient in the face of such compensation.
Leopard-Ye won’t help, and the brothers on the road remain indifferent.
If the money isn’t repaid, Su Jie would be labeled a defaulter, also facing criminal charges for assault and property damage, aning inevitable imprisonnt.
This unexpected predicant is overwhelmingly worse than a few years ago!
Su Jie didn’t want to rot in jail, so he had no choice but to leave the hospital in a wheelchair, seeking funds everywhere.
He contacted his closest brothers, those who had shared pants and won with him.
However, when money was discussed, the brother said, "Su Jie, I do have a bit of money, but not much. Even breaking the pot and selling all, I can only give you ten bucks. Do you want it?"
Su Jie felt deeply disheartened.
Brother, at the table, you said within 500,000, with a word from , you’d move mountains and oceans to get it for !
Su Jie had an epiphany, realizing the truth of life.
When you are successful, the whole world is your friend and brother.
But when you’re downcast, the world leaves you with only enemies and indifference.
The more respect and friendliness shown to you before, the more coldness and sarcasm you face today.
