Eighty's Military Marriage: The Disliked Me Became the Richest Man in the City

Originally the female CEO of a high-end catering brand, Xia Enruo drowned while vacationing in Hainan to watch the underwater starry sky and transmigrated to the 1980s. Her past life was full of gl...

Chapter 209 The Debt Collector Comes Knocking

"I think her man definitely doesn't know Xia Enruo's background. He's handsome, well-dressed, and has an extraordinary demeanor. Why would he marry someone who has no parents?"

"That little bitch Xia Enruo must have made up a lie. Maybe her man is still in the dark. We'll use this to threaten her in a bit. If she doesn't obediently hand over the money, we'll completely ruin her reputation and make her a laughingstock!"

Wang Yue'e became increasingly angry as she spoke, determined to avenge her son.

The two sat by the roadside for an entire afternoon, leaving orange peels scattered all over the ground, as more and more people set up stalls to do business.

More and more students came out of the school gate to buy things, but Xia Enruo was nowhere to be seen.

Finally, as the crowds thinned out, the vendors began to pack up their stalls.

Zhang Baozhu then became anxious.

He went up to Old Li, who sells fruit, and asked him about it.

"Hey sir, do you know a woman named Xia Enruo who sells boxed lunches around here?"

Old Li sized up the two people. They had been sitting by his stall all afternoon, waiting for Xia Enruo.

"Do you need to see her?"

Upon hearing that there was hope, Zhang Baozhu began to fabricate lies.

“Oh, we are Xia Enruo’s uncle and aunt. We came from the countryside to see her about something, but we don’t know where she lives. We only heard that she sells boxed lunches near the medical university, so we came to find her.”

"My wife and I have been here all afternoon, but we haven't seen her. We were wondering if you know where she is?"

Old Li was delighted to hear this; it turned out that a relative had come to the city to visit Xia.

"Xia is really something now. She stopped selling boxed lunches here a long time ago. She's got money now and opened her own shop."

"Look at that luxuriously decorated Ke Lai Xiang private restaurant at the west end. It's run by Xia Xia. She's very famous in Yongning City. If you're looking for her, go there."

When Zhang Baozhu heard that this woman was now so rich that she even owned a restaurant, he was shocked.

This means she has to cover all of her father's medical expenses to save her family from having to pay for them.

The two walked in the direction Old Li pointed.

Wang Yue'e grimaced. That little bitch has really struck it rich now.

She actually opened a restaurant. She's a real nemesis; she brings bad luck to her own family while she herself thrives.

Shameless little vixen, this time I'll skin you alive! Why are you so rich?

"Honey, this girl is really capable now, she actually has such a big business."

“Our family has been incredibly unlucky. One terrible thing after another has happened, all because of her.”

Wang Yue'e was stirring things up in her husband's ear, all to make Zhang Baozhu angry so he could thoroughly berate Xia Enruo later.

Expose her past completely to the public, let everyone know how she betrayed her promises and abandoned her elders without supporting them.

When the two arrived at the store entrance, they looked up at the billboard hanging overhead.

"Ke Lai Xiang Private Kitchen. That's right, this is it! The sign is quite impressive!"

"They're just sucking other people's blood to enrich themselves. What's the use of grandeur if it's not their own property? Don't forget Guohong is still in jail!"

Wang Yue'e added another sentence.

Zhang Baozhu grew angrier as he listened, and led his wife through the door and went inside.

Seeing the two enter, Tian Xiuli assumed they were there for dinner and immediately greeted them:

"Welcome to our store. The restaurant is on the first floor and the supermarket is on the second floor. If you want to dine, just queue up there to pick up your food. The supermarket on the second floor can be reached by going up the stairs on the left."

Zhang Baozhu and Wang Yue'e were somewhat dazed as they entered the store; it was the first time they had ever been to such a luxurious place.

This is practically the imperial palace where the emperor lived, straight out of a play.

The overhead lights shone with a golden light, and green plants surrounded me. The aroma of food wafted into my nose, making my mouth water.

Wang Yue'e, who had walked in angrily with a long face, now seemed a bit timid.

I always felt that I shouldn't have come to this kind of place; I simply couldn't afford it.

She tugged at Zhang Baozhu's sleeve, who was equally stunned, signaling him to speak quickly.

Zhang Baozhu snapped out of his daze and said to Tian Xiuli without any politeness:

"Call Xia Enruo out here, we need to find her!!!"

Zhang Baozhu's tone was extremely domineering, as if he were there to cause trouble. His voice drew frequent glances from the diners.

"You didn't come here for a meal? You came to see Xia?"

Tian Xiuli was momentarily stunned; this was the first time she had ever encountered someone with such a bad attitude.

And they came looking for Xia Enruo.

"Didn't you hear what I just said? Call your boss, Xia Enruo, out and tell her that her uncle and aunt are looking for her."

Zhang Baozhu revealed his identity and urged him again.

When Tian Xiuli heard that they were Xia Enruo's uncle and aunt, she realized that Xia Enruo had never mentioned her relatives before.

However, since they are relatives of my boss, I must treat them well.

"Uncle, Aunt. Xia Xia isn't out of the shop right now. Why don't we sit down and wait for her? She'll come over when we collect the bills tonight."

Zhang Baozhu had no choice but to agree. Fortunately, he had found the right place. He just hoped that Xia Enruo would show up.

Tian Xiuli led the two to an empty seat and placed two cups of tea on the table.

“Xia is back, and I’ll bring her over to see you right away.”

After finishing her speech, Tian Xiuli continued to greet guests at the door.

Zhang Baozhu and Wang Yue'e took a sip of tea. The tea was really delicious, and it was black tea.

I wouldn't even buy such good tea for myself at home.

"Boss, look how many people there are! They're swarming in. It's almost dark and there are still so many customers. That little bitch must have made a fortune."

Zhang Baozhu didn't say anything, only looking around.

Looking around at the crowded seats filled with customers, I felt a little uneasy.

"Hey, I was just saying, what did that woman mean by a supermarket on the second floor? What's a supermarket?"

Wang Yue'e was curious; it was the first time she had ever heard this word since she was born.

"How would I know? I've never heard of it in our county!"

Zhang Baozhu sat in the chair, his stomach rumbling. He and Wang Yue'e hadn't eaten since lunch, in order to keep Xia Enruo from eating.

The oranges I ate this afternoon have long been digested, and now seeing everyone around me sitting there enjoying them makes me so hungry.

Wang Yue'e was the same; she swallowed hard, wiped her mouth, and drool was practically dripping from her mouth.

"Hey, sir, go find that woman from earlier and tell her to bring us some food. We're the boss's elders; we can't just eat and drink for free here. I don't think they'll dare say anything!"

Wang Yue'e was already incredibly excited about the food; she couldn't wait to eat the restaurant's dishes.

This restaurant is so extravagant that I wouldn't dare to go in on a normal day, let alone spend money to eat there.

It just so happens that it's now run by that little bitch, so it's good that she's eating and drinking for free. Who told her to owe my family so much?
