Gorgeous Female Tenants

Xu Xiangbei and his group were just waiting there. Xu casually pressed a button, and music started playing in the car. He reclined the seat and lay down directly, looking completely at ease, which made Qin Xue grit her teeth.

"You’re really enjoying yourself. It’s already ten at night, and I don’t have time to waste with you here."

"Don’t worry, my brother-in-law will definitely come. If you’re tired, you can sleep for a while, let’s sleep together!" Xu Xiangbei said nonchalantly, resting his head and humming along with the music.

"Only a fool would sleep with you. If Chen Pingfan doesn’t come, I’ll skin you alive!"

Xu Xiangbei teased, "Relax, he’ll definitely come. This is the only route to the police station, and he’ll be released tonight. Do you believe it? By the way, do you want to skin me to see my inner self? I, the young master, am not only beautiful on the outside but also on the inside. Tonight, we can get to know each other well, let us have zero-distance—no, intimate contact, so you can understand me better!"

Qin Xue fell silent and started chatting with Guo Lijun about matters at the police station. After a while, she got bored and started playing on her phone.

"They’re here..." Suddenly, a voice interrupted them.

Hearing Xu Xiangbei’s voice, they looked up, only to see a group of people approaching. Most of them were limping and shuffling, looking like they had been injured.

Some were even wrapped in white cloth, but most were walking normally without any major injuries, just a bit of pain.

"Brother Chen, this time our brothers have really been caught off guard. I didn’t expect this Xu Xiangbei to be so formidable. Not even an ordinary trainer could be his match!" said Zhang Yonglin, a young man with a Shamate hairstyle and a strong build, obviously trained in martial arts. He was the fiercest fighter under Chen Pingfan.

Xu Xiangbei still had some impression of him, as he had held up against his moves, which was commendable, showing some skill.

Chen Pingfan sighed continuously, a look of sorrow on his face: "Ah, Yonglin, this time we’ve truly screwed up. I didn’t even want to do this in the first place. But Zeng Xianren, that bastard, forced my hand, and I had no choice. I thought it would be an easy task to handle smoothly, but it turned out like this. I’ve let down the brothers!"

"Brother Chen, we don’t blame you," yelled a few of his followers behind him.

"Yes, we can only blame our bad luck, or perhaps say Zeng Xianren’s background is too powerful for us to offend!" Zhang Yonglin’s face was full of helplessness.

"There’s nothing we can do. He has a good father, and a good grandfather, unlike us who may be born with no father or mother. Even if we have them, they’re without money or power, and some even divorced, with no ability to send us to college. Otherwise, why would we be in such a plight? But knowing you guys, I’m still very happy!"

Chen Pingfan’s face was full of grief and resentment, mingled with a bit of unwillingness. If possible, who would want to be a thug in this world?

Who doesn’t want to suit up every day, frequent high-end places and hang out in various bars, dance halls, and hotels, drinking the strongest liquor, smoking the thickest cigarettes, and dating the most beautiful girlfriends!

But some things aren’t achievable just because you want them. Ideals are rich; reality is harsh.

Chen Pingfan tightly clenched his fist, but finally, he had to let it go.

"Brother Chen, what should we do next?" Zhang Yonglin, too, understood his predicament. Usually, he acted as a boss to ordinary folks or elementary school kids with no backgrounds, collecting pitiful protection fees. But facing those with real status and backgrounds—

He had to tuck his tail between his legs, acting subservient; otherwise, they’d face doomsday. This is the plight of small people.

Chen Pingfan’s expression was full of anguish: "What else can I do? I can only pay up!"

"That Xu guy is really being greedy, a million! Does he think money grows on trees or flows like tap water? That’s cold, hard, white cash, and he just demands it like that?" Zhang Yonglin’s face was full of indignation, wishing to devour Xu Xiangbei’s flesh.

"Do you really think that Xu wants a million?" Chen Pingfan glanced at him.

"But that’s what Zeng Xianren said, right? Is there something shady about this?"

"Xiao Lin, you’re way too naive. You can’t believe a word that bloodsucker Zeng Xianren says. His heart is far darker and more ruthless than ours."

"Do you know, he initially even asked me for 500,000 in loans. If I hadn’t let it all go, threatening to go to court, do you think he would have relented?"

"He’s simply a vampire, clearly instructing us to do this job, but now that it’s messed up, all the blame is on us!" Zhang Yonglin’s eyes were filled with bitterness.

"But what can we do? To people like him, we’re just meat on the chopping block, ready to be slaughtered. Is he someone we can fight against? We can’t even afford to offend him!" Chen Pingfan’s eyes were filled with helplessness.

"Forget it, let’s not talk about this. Brothers have suffered today, and I still have ten thousand yuan here. Take it to treat your wounds, make sure you don’t end up with any lingering issues, just consider it a brotherly gift!" Saying this, Chen Pingfan took out ten thousand yuan from his pocket and distributed it to those hooligans.

"Brother Chen, how could we accept this?"

"Yes, yes!" Several guys were hesitating to take it.

"Just take it, unless you despise me? Think of it as a token of appreciation!"

"Clap! Clap..." Xu Xiangbei stepped out of the car, applauding.

"Brother-in-law, I’m growing more and more fond of you. Such backbone, I have high hopes for you!"

Chen Pingfan and his crew, upon seeing Xu Xiangbei exiting the car, turned pale. They then noticed Xu Xiangbei’s car had been parked in front of them for a while.

"Oh, what a coincidence running into each other from afar. What brings you here?" Chen Pingfan’s face immediately lit up with a smile. He could tell just by looking at Xu Xiangbei’s car that his background wasn’t simple, probably at least a wealthy second generation. Moreover, given that Zeng Xianren had ordered them to act, it was clear that even Zeng Xianren feared Xu Xiangbei somewhat and dared not make a move himself, which meant he was certainly not someone Chen Pingfan could easily provoke.

"What do you intend to do?" The bunch of underlings behind him all looked sharply at Xu Xiangbei, their faces filled with caution and also fear, as if looking at a demon.

"Not much, just here to catch up with my future brother-in-law. What’s wrong? Do you have any objections?" Xu Xiangbei maintained his carefree demeanor.

The bunch of underlings fell silent, not daring to make a move; it was apparent they were intimidated by Xu Xiangbei.

"I’m telling you, we’re just following orders. This has nothing to do with Brother Chen!" Finally, Zhang Yonglin mustered the courage to step forward.

"Right, we were just carrying out orders. Brother Chen wasn’t much involved." Hearing him, the bunch of underlings plucked up their courage.

"Not bad, not bad. Brother-in-law, your underlings are quite commendable. By the way, what’s your name?" Xu Xiangbei cast an appreciative glance at Zhang Yonglin.

"I never change my name while on the move, sitting still, or otherwise. I am Zhang Yonglin!" Despite his face flushing and tone carrying a hint of fear, the young guy summoned his courage to shout.

"Hmph, whatever it is, direct it at me. It has nothing to do with them. Do whatever you want!" Chen Pingfan, moved by the loyalty of his brothers, could only grit his teeth and bear the responsibility.

Xu Xiangbei looked at him with unreserved admiration, smiling as he spoke: "How could that be? You’re my future brother-in-law. I’d be too busy treating you well to want to harm you in any way. Come on, come on, hop in my car, let’s find a place to have a good chat!"

With this, Xu Xiangbei grabbed Chen Pingfan and ushered him into his luxury car. The bunch of youths, sensing something was amiss, although a bit scared, surged forward nonetheless.

"Let go of Brother Chen!"

"Yeah, real men don’t resort to sneaky moves, deal with us openly!"

"You all go ahead, get checked out at a hospital. I’m just catching up with my brother-in-law; it has nothing to do with you. Go on now!" Seeing things were getting tense, Chen Pingfan understood they weren’t Xu Xiangbei’s match and shouted out loud.

He and Xu Xiangbei got into the car and drove off in a flash, leaving the group of underlings looking at each other, eventually dispersing.

However, Zhang Yonglin’s eyes were filled with reluctance. After some thought, he hailed a cab and stealthily followed behind.
