Chapter 84: Chapter 84 Trouble Knocking at the DoorSo that’s what happened! After hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Lin Tong nodded. "Right, honey, if you think it tastes good, I’ll cook breakfast for you myself next time!" Ye Xuan quickly added. His intuition about this woman was too dangerous, if he continued, he feared he’d really give himself away. Sure enough, Lin Tong’s attention was successfully diverted! "You can cook? You’re not kidding me, right?" She opened her eyes wide in surprise, looking incredulously at Ye Xuan. "Guaranteed genuine!" Ye Xuan replied with a mysterious smile, without further explanation. "Okay, I’ll definitely try it then." Lin Tong answered calmly, though she didn’t really take it seriously. In her eyes, Ye Xuan didn’t look like someone who could cook at all! However, Ye Xuan’s words still made her somewhat happy. After all, he was the first man who had ever bought her breakfast and the first man who had said he would cook it for her. As for her father, Lin Dongfang, he’d never once made her breakfast! That was also why she never felt warmth in this family. ... The morning passed quickly, and in the afternoon, Ye Xuan received a call from Lu Miaochan. Thinking about how he had accidentally seen this young woman naked yesterday, Ye Xuan felt a bit guilty, considering whether or not to answer the phone! However, he couldn’t avoid this situation, so Ye Xuan steeled himself, ready for her barrage. But the voice coming from the phone was unexpected. "Ye Xuan, come quickly, those people are causing trouble at my place again!" Lu Miaochan’s words were anxious, and from the noisy background, it sounded like someone was causing a disturbance. Ye Xuan raised his eyebrows and immediately said, "Okay, don’t panic, I’m coming right over!" After hanging up, Ye Xuan’s expression darkened, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes. He had visited Lu Miaochan’s house yesterday precisely because he was worried these people would cause trouble, but last night they hadn’t shown up. Ye Xuan had thought that since they had sent Lu Zhengguo to the hospital, they would stop, but today trouble had come knocking! "Good timing. You escaped yesterday’s disaster, but today I’ll deal with you all." Ye Xuan’s expression was indifferent; he wouldn’t let these ruffians off until Lu Miaochan and her family could live in peace. After leaving the company, Ye Xuan hailed a cab and headed straight to Lu Miaochan’s house. Meanwhile, outside Lu Miaochan’s house, a commercial van was parked. A man with a broad back and burly build, resembling a brown bear, stood in front of the van, arms crossed. This man emanated a fierce aura, dressed in a black stretch vest with muscles bulging from his arms like small mountains, giving off a strong oppressive feeling! Behind him, four other youths dressed in flashy, hip-hop attire and with bizarrely long hair stood. "Hey hey, Lu Zhengguo, looks like you’ve got a strong life force to have recovered from such serious injuries!" The burly man sneered coldly, looking at the opposite side where Lu Zhengguo, holding a kitchen knife, stood. "Guo Yong, last time you brought people to ambush me unawares, today, if you dare, face me one-on-one and see the might of my Dragon Slayer Sword!" Lu Zhengguo, standing tall in the doorway, lifted the sharp kitchen knife and bellowed furiously. "Ha, it seems you’ve forgotten the pain once your scars healed, and now you threaten me with a mere kitchen knife? You think I, Brother Yong, am easily frightened!" Guo Yong revealed a disdainful face without any hint of agreement, signaling the people behind him with his eyes to step forward. The ruffian youths snickered and were about to forcefully enter the courtyard! "I’ll see who dares to set foot in my house. I’ll chop whoever does!" Lu Zhengguo raised his eyebrows and shouted fiercely. "Fuck! Giving you face and you don’t take it, thinking you’re somebody? Today I’m putting it down here, if your family doesn’t pay my brother’s medical fees, then bring your daughter out to cover the debt!" Guo Yong’s eyes flashed fiercely as he cursed. Hearing this, Lu Miaochan in the courtyard turned pale, clutched her phone tightly, praying in her heart, "Ye Xuan, please come over quickly!" Wu Xiangjun hurriedly squeezed out and pleaded, "Mr. Guo, we will pay the medical fees, we definitely will! But could you please give us a few days? I don’t have thirty thousand right now." Seeing these people arriving aggressively and threatening her own daughter, Wu Xiangjun was already panic-stricken. Now all she wanted was to quickly pay off to settle the matter and drive these ruffians away—how could she even think of anything else? "Mom, it wasn’t us who hit him, why should we pay him money?" Lu Miaochan said indignantly. These people clearly didn’t look like good people, and although she was also very scared, she believed that as long as Ye Xuan could rush over, he would definitely be able to drive these ruffians away and return her family to tranquility! "Delay? Do you think I run a charity? It’s not just thirty thousand now, I want three hundred thousand!" Guo Yong stretched out three fingers, a cold smirk on his face. What? Three hundred thousand!? Hearing this number, the entire Lu family exclaimed in shock. They never expected the other party to demand such an exorbitant amount! "Mr. Guo, wasn’t it agreed that the medical fee was thirty thousand? Why is it suddenly three hundred thousand now?" Wu Xiangjun said anxiously. Three hundred thousand, how could their family possibly come up with so much money? Even if they sold everything they owned, it wouldn’t be enough to cover the debt. "Thirty thousand? Heh, that was the price ten days ago!" Guo Yong pulled out a hospital bill from his chest, waved it in front of Wu Xiangjun with a smug look, "See? This is the invoice issued by the hospital, the total medical expense is three hundred and eighty thousand! Could I possibly lie to you? However, I see your family is quite pitiful, I’ll let go of the eight thousand, just take three hundred thousand!" Seeing that eye-popping line of numbers on the bill, Wu Xiangjun felt a rush of darkness before his eyes. Lu Zhengguo’s face also turned pale! Three hundred thousand! Such a large sum of money, how could his family afford it? Wasn’t this pushing them towards a dead end? Already suffering from high blood pressure, her brain buzzed in shock, nearly causing her to faint, but luckily Lu Miaochan was quick to support her. "Fuck, old lady, you’re trying to scam me? Unfortunately, Brother Yong doesn’t fall for that!" Guo Yong glared with bulging eyes, a fierce smile on his face, "Boys, tie up his daughter. Let’s see if he doesn’t pay up obediently!" "Hehe, look how pretty his daughter is!" "Beauty, don’t be afraid, as long as your dad coughs up three hundred thousand, we’ll let you go!" The youths behind him walked towards Lu Miaochan with ill intentions. "I dare you to try!" Lu Zhengguo raised his knife in front of Lu Miaochan, swinging it wildly. After all, it was a gleaming knife, and the ruffians really didn’t dare come closer.
