Leopard chuckled and said quietly, "Pay back? What are you going to use to pay back? This money has been owed for over a month, and you said the same thing last time."

As he spoke, he patted Niu Yi's face with the dagger.

The cold dagger struck his face, and Niu Yi felt a chill run down his spine. However, because he was being held captive by the thugs, he had no chance to resist and could only be slaughtered at their mercy.

Now, all he can do is beg for mercy.

"Leopard...Leopard, I really can pay it back. I have a job, I can earn money, I will definitely pay it back!" Niu Yi swallowed hard, his eyes filled with fear, his back soaked with cold sweat.

"How much money can you make at that shabby Xinglong Restaurant? Even if you don't eat or drink for a year, it'll be hard to pay it back, right?" Leopard's expression was cold, and his face twitched a few times as he stood up.

"I can give you a chance. You have three days. If you can't pay back the money, I'll go to Xinglong Restaurant and tell everyone that you gambled and owe money. Let's see if the restaurant manager will still keep you!"

After saying that, Leopard gave a wicked smile, seemingly quite pleased with his idea.

Niu Yi felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his whole body went numb.

He suddenly regretted revealing where he worked; otherwise, he could have kept his job.

Leopard didn't give Niu Yi a chance to think. He took out a piece of paper from his pocket, placed it in front of Niu Yi, and said coldly, "Put your fingerprint on the IOU, or I'll cut off your hand now. The choice is yours."

Niu Yi stared at the note in front of him, his hand resting on the ground trembling uncontrollably.

He signed the contract, but failed to repay the money three days later. Not only did he lose his job, but he also faced the prospect of having his hand cut off.

If you don't sign, I'll cut off both your hands right now.
