On Ye Yuan's side, he was slowly returning home.
Before reaching the door, from inside came chaotic screams, curses, the sound of broken objects, and even choked pleas.
Ye Yuan's heart suddenly tightened. A bad premonition flashed, causing him to immediately rush inside.
"Dad! Mom!" - he shouted loudly, his eyes filled with worry...
But the scene that met his eyes made Ye Yuan seem to freeze, his pupils contracted, his lips moved, unable to speak because the scene that appeared before his eyes was...
His father was kneeling on the ground, his body covered in bruises. His mother was being pulled back by a man's hair, her face distorted in pain.
One of the men turned his head and sneered:
"Ah, look who's back."
Ye Yuan paused for a second, then gritted his teeth:
"What are you guys doing here? Didn't we say the deadline is next month?"
The guy standing next to him burst out laughing, intending to kick his mother.
Without thinking, Ye Yuan rushed forward, pushing him away, his voice trembling but still saying each word:
"Just say it, why do you have to use your hands and feet?!"
The others looked at each other, then burst out laughing loudly.
The leader stepped forward, curled his lips:
"You brat, you're quite bold."
Ye Yuan trembled, but his eyes were bloodshot. He grabbed the cup of water on the table and threw it straight at his face.
"Don't touch my parents anymore, you scum!"
The whole room fell silent.
The water dripped onto the floor, making a clattering sound.
The guy who was splashed with water frowned, raised his hand to wipe his cheek, his voice hoarse:
"Damn it... you dare to do that?!"
Before he could finish, he kicked Ye Yuan straight in the stomach.
"Slap!" - the sound made his mother scream loudly, run to hug her son, and block him.
"If you want to hit me, hit me! He's just a kid!"
"Slap!" the slap resounded coldly in the dilapidated house.
The woman fell to the ground, her face red and swollen.
The other guy grabbed Ye Yuan's collar, lifted him up, and growled:
"Do you still want to be a hero now, you brat?"
Ye Yuan gritted his teeth, his eyes were red, his gaze seemed to want to pierce through the person in front of him.
The leader laughed coldly, threw him to the ground, then spat on Ye Yuan's face contemptuously:
"Don't look at me with that look. Do you want me to gouge your eyes out?"
As soon as he raised his hand again, a cold and clear voice rang out from outside the door:
"Stop. What the hell are you guys doing? Do you believe I'll call the police?"
The whole group turned around in shock.
A tall, bright-faced man with eyes as sharp as a knife was standing in the doorway.
The leader raised his eyebrows and sneered:
"Oh, another fake hero?"
Da Uyen was stunned, he recognized that person. It was the one who had helped him escape this morning.
He wanted to shout for him to run away, but his throat was tight, only making a few mumbling sounds.
"What are you doing to them?" Du Thanh Ngon said coldly.
The leader shrugged:
"Just collecting debt. Do you want to interfere?"
"Yes." - Du Thanh Ngon answered concisely.
The whole group burst into laughter.
"Can you pay it back?"
"Read the account number." - his voice was so deep and cold that the whole house seemed to fall silent.
The other guy was stunned for a moment, then said: "Five hundred million!"
Da Uyen's father struggled to get up, his voice hoarse:
"No... no! I said it was two hundred and fifty before!"
"Shut up and let me talk, you old bastard!" - he kicked him to the ground, causing him to groan in pain...
Dư Thanh Ngôn saw this, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, his eyes darkened, his voice a bit impatient:
"Read the account number."
The leader growled, took out his phone:
"Here! If you can, transfer it. If it's not enough, don't blame me."
Less than a minute later, his phone vibrated...
"500,000,000 VND has been transferred."
The room was silent.
The leader was a bit stunned, then coldly snorted:
"Let them go."
The underlings whispered and cursed, then left.
The door slammed shut.
Only the sound of heavy breathing and the faint smell of blood lingered in the air.
Yu Qingyan walked over, his voice softening:
"Are you two okay?"
Ye Yuan's mother's tears fell down:
"Thank... thank you. Without you today, my family wouldn't know what to do..."
Yu Qingyan smiled softly:
"It's nothing, it's just what should be done."
But in a corner that no one could see, in his eyes, a cold light flashed, looking very scheming that few people could see, smiling a mysterious smile mixed with indescribable joy..
"Ha..it was worth the trouble to come all the way to this godforsaken place..finally the plan..was successful!"
