Chapter 207: Stop Pretending to Be Dead
Gong Liang did not intend to take his life. After all, with Zhong Heyang around, they would definitely be in trouble, so there was no need to sacrifice themselves.
After receiving the money, Gong Liang kicked him twice in anger and said, "Next month or today, the protection fee cannot be less than a penny, otherwise, you will be reported!"
Zhong Zhiyang struggled to get up from the ground. None of the other vendors around him looked over here.
I'm no longer surprised by the behavior of Gong Liang and his friends.
Zhong Zhiyang covered his waist in pain where Gong Liang had just kicked him. The slightest movement was so painful that it felt like death.
He moved step by step to find Wang Maer.
Wang Maer had just divided the money with Gong Liang when he saw Zhong Zhiyang coming.
Zhong Zhiyang was shocked, as if something in his heart had collapsed. He pointed at Gong Liang's back and asked, "Why did he give you money?"
He waited until Gong Liang and the others left before he dared to come out.
Otherwise, if I rashly barge in to confront him, I will definitely be beaten up.
Being caught doing this, Wang Maer didn't feel guilty at all. Instead, he curled his lips in disdain, "He is my good friend, why should I ask so many whys?"
"He charged me fifty dollars for protection! He also said he would charge me fifty dollars every month! Since you two have such a good relationship, why did you cheat me like this? I bought the goods from you!"
Zhong Zhiyang even found it hard to believe that they were all in the same group.
Wang Maer did not hide it at all, "So what? It doesn't matter whether you take the goods or not. I don't need someone like you to take the goods. Besides, he collected protection money from you for your protection. If you pay the money, no one will dare to bully you in the black market in the future."
Zhong Zhiyang didn't expect that even though he knew all these things, he still supported Gong Liang to do it.
"He was robbing, okay?"
"Don't say such harsh words. We all have to make a living, otherwise you wouldn't come to a place like ours. How can a young master like you who grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth understand the hard life of us low-class people?"
Wang Maer even lit up a cigarette slowly, "Today is also for you to experience, so that you can better integrate into this place in the future, and then you can sell the goods."
His reasons were so concise that Zhong Zhiyang almost believed them all.
"I think you two are in the same group! You want to trick me on purpose! You want to cheat me out of my money!"
Fortunately, the pain in his body made Zhong Zhiyang unusually sober. His voice was trembling, full of hatred, "Give me back my money! Give it back to me!"
Wang Maer said with a smile: "The money you spend is just like water spilled, there is no reason to take it back! Instead of arguing with me here, why don't you sell the goods earlier and get your money back sooner? Don't you want your deposit anymore?"
His words directly stimulated Zhong Zhiyang, "You... I'm going to report you! You are in cahoots with each other and rob people of their money. Let the police arrest you all!"
Facing his hoarse voice, Wang Maer remained indifferent, with a somewhat absurd expression, "Go ahead, and tell me about your own misconduct. We can keep each other company in jail when the time comes."
"you--"
Zhong Zhiyang was once again under control.
He never imagined that his childhood playmate would, together with others, deceive him step by step and even blatantly rob him of his money!
Wang Maer saw him break down and felt very happy, "Zhong Zhiyang, I really didn't expect you to end up like this."
"It seems like you are really short of money. Otherwise, why don't you kneel down and beg me now? I might be soft-hearted and give you some money because we have known each other for many years."
When he was young, he envied Zhong Zhiyang very much.
Even though his parents are both dead, he still comes from a military family.
Not to mention that he has an elder brother who is a young and capable team leader. Even if he does nothing and just lies at home in his life, he can still live a happy life.
But such a person actually gave up his own family for a woman.
What an idiot.
That woman was just a second-hand commodity, a slut who had been played with by countless men, but he treated her like a hot commodity.
But even so, as long as he broke up and went home to admit his mistake, he could still become the idle young master of the Zhong family who was fond of eating, drinking and having fun.
But Wang Maer is different.
Although his parents were both workers in a steel factory, he was strictly disciplined by them since he was a child. He would be beaten if he did not study well, but he was really not cut out for studying.
Later, his mother fell ill and the burden of the whole family fell on his father.
His father's salary was barely enough to provide food for their family of three. In order to pay for his mother's medical treatment, Wang Maer begged for help from everyone and finally found a way to sell things on the black market.
Little by little, we have come to this day.
Comparing yourself with others is really frustrating.
Zhong Zhiyang suffered all the hardships in his life today. Even when he eloped with Jiang Nianyue and went out to earn money, he was never as miserable as he is today.
He regretted that he had trusted Wang Maer. Perhaps he would never get his deposit back. What Wang Maer said about returning the deposit if he bought goods worth 500 yuan was just a lie.
I originally thought that once I made a lot of money, I would impress my family members.
But now, he seems like a joke.
He didn't know where he got the courage from, but he picked up the stool next to him and smashed it hard on Wang Maer, as if he wanted to vent his anger.
Wang Maer was quite skilled and took a few steps back in time, so the stool didn't hit him at all.
"Do you want to live? You dare to fight with me here? Haven't you learned to be honest yet?" Wang Maer walked forward and punched Zhong Zhiyang in the stomach.
His strength is not small.
Zhong Zhiyang covered his stomach in pain, then fell down with his back bent.
Wang Maer raised his eyebrows slightly, "If you can't stand being beaten, stop pretending to be dead and get up!"
Zhong Zhiyang was already seriously injured, and now he was hit so hard by the punch that he couldn't breathe.
But Wang Maer thought he was pretending, and stepped on him even more, "Weren't you very arrogant when you were a kid? You relied on your few lousy bucks to treat so many people to a meal and snacks."
"Your Zhong family has plenty of money. When all your family members die, won't it all be yours? Is it worth it for such a small sum of money now?"
At this moment, the door was kicked open from the outside, and a gust of cold wind rushed in.
Then a deep and cold voice came from far away, "At least he still has family, unlike you who can't wait to have a reunion dinner when you pick up chopsticks."
Lin Ziqiu walked in. She raised her eyes slightly and sneered vaguely, as if a murderous aura was spreading from her body.
Wang Maer had never seen her before. When he heard her calling him an orphan, he was so angry that his brows twisted into a thread. "Where did you come from, you stinky girl? Be smart and stop meddling in other people's business. Get out of here as soon as possible!"
