Chapter 785: The Gateway to a New World
The footsteps of Allen and the others stopped immediately.
Nobody noticed this series of actions.
"Such big talk, do you know this kid owes me money?" The man in the lead didn’t even consider the four young men in front of him.
He stared coldly at Zou Yanpeng, as if looking at a weakling.
Jin Bai finally came to his senses, stepped forward a few paces, and looked at the man in the lead with a pleading expression, "Brother Hu, please give me a few more days, I promise I’ll gather the money and pay you back in a few days!"
"Pay back?" Brother Hu sneered, his face darkening as he stared at Jin Bai, "With what? The place you’re living now is rented, and you have a grandma who’s almost on her deathbed. Tell me, what will you use to repay me?"
Jin Bai clenched his hands tightly, knowing that what Brother Hu said was true.
Back then, when his grandma fell gravely ill, he was so desperate that he borrowed money from Brother Hu, who ran a game arcade on this street.
He also knew that borrowing from someone like Brother Hu meant exorbitant interest rates.
But for his grandma, he had no other choice.
"It’s just money! With such a big fuss, you’d think Xiao Bai had dug up your ancestors’ graves!"
Hearing that Jin Bai owed Brother Hu money, Zou Yanpeng was furious.
No matter what, he couldn’t resort to violence!
Any problem solvable with money is not a problem.
Brother Hu sneered at Zou Yanpeng, "Oh! Talking big, are we?"
He pointed at Jin Bai and asked, "Do you know how much he owes me?"
From his tone, Zou Yanpeng’s expression became conflicted.
Admittedly, his family was well off, and he got over ten thousand in pocket money every month.
If Jin Bai owed tens of thousands, he could cover it, but any more would be difficult.
Zou Yanpeng thought that if Jin Bai owed too much, he’d have to involve his family.
But Brother Hu mistook his silence as fear.
He sneered again, staring back at Jin Bai, "It’s fine if you don’t pay back the money you owe, just like we discussed before. Spend some time with the boss I introduce you to, and the debt between us will be cleared!"
Jin Bai seemed to have heard something horrifying, quickly stepping back two paces, trembling violently, terrified to the core.
Behind Xiao Bai was Qiao Wenming, who he bumped into directly.
Qiao Wenming supported his arm, staring at Brother Hu in confusion, "What do you mean by that?"
Brother Hu chuckled, eyeing Qiao Wenming up and down, lewdly, "Xiao Bai is so good-looking, a lot of big bosses fancy that type. As long as he spends a few nights with them, he can earn several thousand bucks. Where else can you find such a cheap deal? It’s just a stroke of luck to meet me; otherwise, he’d never get such a chance in his life.
I heard you’re going to school on some Jiang Jiu Foundation scholarship or something. If I were you, I’d agree to this. Once you take this path, you’ll have whatever you want, counting money until your hands go soft—that’s what you call self-reliance—"
Neither Qiao Wenming nor Zou Yanpeng listened to much of what Brother Hu said beyond this point.
Their focus was caught by Brother Hu’s words about many bosses liking Xiao Bai’s type.
What a bunch of perverts!
They weren’t ignorant and quickly caught on to what he meant.
And then Brother Hu revealed that Jin Bai only owed him a few thousand.
On hearing the amount, Zou Yanpeng was furious!
Just a few thousand, and this guy was forcing Xiao Bai... to sell his body!
In a fit of rage, he charged forward and swung a punch at Brother Hu.
"Bang!"
He used all his strength in that punch.
Brother Hu was caught off guard and couldn’t avoid it.
"Damn! You dare hit me!"
