Chapter 84: Chapter 76: Conflict at the Barbecue Restaurant 2Master Tu spoke calmly, but his words were sharp. "Oh, turns out you’re debt collectors!" Lin Mu understood a bit. But the interest rate was outrageously high—it doubled from ten thousand to twenty thousand in just a few days. These people were really running a high-interest operation; hell, they might as well be robbing a bank! "Master Tu, you’ve got it wrong. The person who owes you is Fan Jian, and I, Liu Yemei, have already divorced him. If you don’t believe me, I can show you the divorce certificate. Therefore, I don’t take care of his affairs anymore. If he owes you money, you should go and find him yourself!" The glamorous proprietress screamed, "Oh my!" immediately, frightened. It was just a coincidence. If Lin Mu had stood still, she might not have dared to actually chop down, since an ordinary citizen would never dare to perform such a mafioso-level act in public! The cleaver hit Lin Mu, but rebounded as if hitting a wall of steel, and the glamorous proprietress exclaimed, immediately letting go of the cleaver, covering her face, not daring to look at Lin Mu’s potentially severed left arm. The cleaver slid off Lin Mu’s shoulder and fell to the ground. Strangely, Lin Mu’s arm wasn’t chopped off, and not even a drop of blood came out. He looked completely unharmed, showing no signs of pain on his face! You should know that last time, on the train, when attacked by a criminal with two shots fired, he wasn’t hurt at all. Let alone now, when he’s facing just a weak woman! "I think there might be some misunderstanding!" Lin Mu hastily explained, "We don’t have anything to do with that bastard you mentioned earlier. We’re good people. Well, I just happened to forget my wallet in the car today. And see, I have a work ID from Yunhai Mansion!" As Lin Mu spoke, he took out his credentials from Yunhai Mansion and waved them in front of the proprietress and others. "Inside Yunhai Mansion is the Global 500, Su’s Great Enterprise. With this ID, let alone six hundred yuan, you could even withdraw six million!" The glamorous proprietress looked at Lin Mu’s work ID, realizing it was genuine, and then understood she might have been a little rash earlier. "You’re really not sent by Fan Jian to make trouble?" "Really not, miss!" "Oh dear, I’m really sorry, I misunderstood you!" The glamorous proprietress began to earnestly apologize, looking less like a hysterical shrew and more like a kind and gentle woman. To force such a beautiful and alluring woman to wield a cleaver, it’s clear that the man Fan Jian indeed is despicable! "Miss, who is this Fan Jian you mentioned earlier? Does he often come and trouble you?" "Well, that bastard is my ex-husband!" The glamorous proprietress said with a tinge of bitterness, "He’s a gambler, an addict, a drunkard. Especially with gambling, if he doesn’t gamble for a day, it feels like his life is over! The money at home was basically all gambled away by him..." The glamorous proprietress wiped her tears. Although Lin Mu was a big man, he couldn’t bear to see women cry, especially in front of him, which immediately made his heart ache! The poor proprietress continued to sob, "Later, I couldn’t take it anymore, so I divorced him with our daughter, and came out to open a small barbecue shop. Fan Jian, however, sank deeper into the casino, refusing to repent. After losing everything, he’d come to me for money. I pitied him and gave him a bit of money, but he never repented. As long as he had a little money, he gambled it all away again!" S~eaʀᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. By this point, the glamorous proprietress was sobbing uncontrollably, and Lin Mu could only comfort her a bit. "So, this Fan Jian often comes to make trouble at your place, right?" The proprietress nodded with tears in her eyes, "He gambles every day, loses every day. My small BBQ shop can’t withstand his torment. Later, I stopped caring about him, but he started coming here to cause trouble, and it’s getting worse, now even involving outsiders to create issues!" "That bastard!" Lin Mu cursed fiercely. Men who live off women are the most hateful, still pestering weak women after divorce, treating his ex-wife as an ATM. This kind of man is truly despicable! As a strong man, Lin Mu despised men who bullied weak women the most! Moreover, this woman was once his wife, whom he loved deeply! Oh dear, the proprietress was indeed a good woman, kind and affectionate. Even after divorce, seeing her ex-husband pitiful, she still gave him money. A woman like this is so hard to find! Meeting such a wife, and to divorce her, it’s clear how despicable Fan Jian really is! Just as Lin Mu was chatting with the proprietress, a group of rough men suddenly barged in from outside. Each had a fierce face, bare-chested, wearing big gold chains, shaved heads with tattoos. Clearly, they were local thugs. "Is Boss Liu here?" The leading bald, fat man asked. As Lin Mu saw the way these people were dressed, he immediately understood. These must be the people related to Fan Jian, as the proprietress mentioned. Having owed the proprietress six hundred yuan himself meant an enormous debt of gratitude, and morally, Lin Mu couldn’t ignore this. Furthermore, Lin Mu despised men who bullied weak women. "I am the proprietress here, Liu Yemei. What business do you have with me?" The glamorous proprietress stepped forward and asked. "Oh, so you’re Boss Liu!" The leading bald thug glanced provocatively at Liu Yemei, letting out a lewd smile, "Hehe, with a cleavage that deep, no wonder the proprietress runs a successful business." "Sorry, gentlemen, if you’re here to spend money, I’m afraid we’re closed for the night. Please come back tomorrow!" Liu Yemei had been in business for a few years, gaining some experience in dealing with such matters, so she wanted to shut down early to prevent their malicious disturbance. "The name’s Tuzi, but friends in the underworld call me Master Tu. Of course, you can call me Tuzi too. I’m not here to spend money today. There’s an important account to settle with Boss Liu!" The thug leader, Master Tu, blocked Liu Yemei’s path, displaying what he thought was a sunny smile, though his yellow teeth made Liu Yemei feel nauseated. "Master Tu, you must be joking, right? We don’t even know each other. What accounts could there be to settle? And before today, I never even met you!" Liu Yemei replied calmly. "Let’s be honest here!" Master Tu got straight to the point, "I’m indeed not familiar with the proprietress, but we’re old gambling buddies with your family’s Shopkeeper Fan! A few days ago, your Shopkeeper Fan took ten thousand from our gambling place and still hasn’t repaid it. Today is the deadline for repayment: including interest, it’s twenty thousand. We couldn’t find your Shopkeeper Fan, so we have no choice but to come here to collect!"
