Chen Ke had a sudden surge in work contacts, so he got a work phone. In addition, he worked overtime all night and went out early this morning to sign contracts, so he didn't notice that his other phone had run out of battery and turned off.

He had just finished buying gifts for everyone in his family and had just left the mall when he noticed someone following him.

If you think about all the people you've offended and who might retaliate, Lu Xiao and Liu Xiang are the most likely candidates.

Presumably, Liu Yao was so angry that she called her brother, and coupled with her previous failed attempt to extort money from the bar, she held a grudge, so Liu Xiang decided to teach him a lesson.

In just a few steps, Chen Ke had figured out pretty much who was following him.

Thinking that the original owner was tricked into taking out huge high-interest loans by this group of people, and ended up with his family ruined and dying tragically on the streets, and that he didn't know how many other people were in the same situation as the original owner, Chen Ke felt that it would be better to get rid of these social scourges.

Carrying a large bag of things, Chen Ke originally intended to take a taxi home, but now he took out his phone and called Mr. Li, the general manager of Dyson.

Liu Xiang sat in the van watching Chen Ke carrying large bags and small packages, talking on the phone as he walked towards the alley across the street. He grinned maliciously. He was worried that it would be difficult to make a move on the main street, but unexpectedly, Chen Ke went to a secluded place on his own. It was like a pillow being delivered to someone who was sleepy.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Liu Yao's eyes were filled with malice that almost materialized, but after seeing the pile of designer brands in Chen Ke's hand, it turned into greed.

"Brother, don't break anything Chen Ke is holding, I want it all!"

"Once we catch him, we can take whatever we want." It's just some shoes and bags, not worth much. The most important thing is to force Chen Ke to take out a high-interest loan; that's where the real money is.

In his previous life, the original owner followed them around and was tricked into taking out high-interest loans. In this life, Chen Ke immediately severed ties with them, leaving Liu Xiang with no choice but to use forceful methods.

Chen Ke carried his things and slowly entered an alley.

With a sharp screech of brakes, a van came to a stop at the alley entrance. Chen Ke turned around and saw seven or eight thugs dressed in leopard-head jackets, tight pants, and loafers getting out of the van, wielding wooden sticks. They glared at him menacingly while rolling up their sleeves to reveal large tattoos covering their arms.

Seeing Chen Ke's somewhat bewildered expression, Liu Xiang and Liu Yao finally got out of the car with an air of superiority.

The underlings parted to make way, and Liu Xiang swaggered forward a few steps, with Liu Yao following behind triumphantly, her face beaming with excitement as if she could already see Chen Ke kneeling and begging for mercy.

"What do you mean by this?" Chen Ke asked knowingly.

Liu Xiang spat a mouthful of yellow phlegm on the ground and said with a sinister smile, "What do you mean? What do you mean? Last time I went to the school to find you in person, but you didn't know what was good for you. Today, there are no security guards to help you. Just be direct and pay me back."

“I told you, I’ll only acknowledge it if you can produce the bill I signed.”

"You fucking ungrateful bastard, huh?!" Liu Xiang roared, and his henchmen behind him banged their wooden sticks together fiercely.

"Brother, why are you wasting your breath on him? If he doesn't admit it, just beat him until he does."

Liu Xiang took a wooden stick from his underling and clapped his hands repeatedly. "Did you hear what my sister said? You actually dared to mess with her today. Tell me, how are you going to compensate me for this emotional distress?"

How do you want compensation?

"Ten thousand isn't too much, is it? Add to the debt from the bar, it's a total of 250,000. How are we going to pay it back?"

Drinking for 150,000? Chen Ke was so angry he almost laughed. This was blatant robbery. The worst part was that the original owner of this body believed it and was tricked into taking out a 500,000 high-interest loan to pay off the debt.

"I have no money."

Liu Xiang and his men approached, "No money? You dare to come drinking if you have no money? But since you and Lu Xiao are friends, I'll give you an idea."

Chen Ke remained calm and asked, "What idea?"

"Brother Liu, I have a friend who specializes in lending money to people in urgent need. All you need to do is bring your ID card to get a large loan. Not only will you be able to pay off your debts, but you'll also have a lot left over. Then, all the girls in the bar will have to call you Young Master Chen when they see you."

"Is an ID card all you need?"

“Of course, who told you to be a top student from Beijing? That status alone is worth this much.” Liu Xiang held up five short, thick fingers and waved them, his excitement and greed barely concealed.

"fifty thousand?"

"That's 500,000, my brother. How about it, are you tempted?"

Chen Ke looked conflicted and hesitant. Seeing this, Liu Xiang felt there was a chance and patiently waited for him.

After a long pause, Chen Ke finally raised his head as if he had made up his mind, while Liu Xiang looked excited and expectant.

Chen Ke: "...I've thought about it, and I think you should bring me the bill I signed first."

? ? ?

Liu Xiang was so angry his face turned red and his neck bulged. "You fucking tricked me!?"

Upon seeing this, Liu Yao immediately recalled the scene in the mall and was so enraged that she screamed, "Ah! Brother, kill him! Kill him now!"

Liu Xiang, not wanting to waste any more time, raised his stick and roared, "Brothers, let's go! He won't listen to reason, so let's teach him a lesson!"

"beat!"

"bump!"

Liu Xiang was the first to throw the wooden stick at Chen Ke. Just as the stick was about to hit Chen Ke's head, it was blocked by a steel rod that Chen Ke pulled out from somewhere. Before Liu Xiang could even be surprised, Chen Ke swung the steel rod at his waist.

"Ah!" A sharp pain shot through Liu Xiang, who screamed and turned pale instantly.

"Brothers, kill him!" Liu Xiang roared fiercely, his voice trembling. Even if he didn't kill Chen Ke today, he would make him suffer a great loss!
