Chi Hongcai's eyes darted around. He suddenly remembered Han Luoxue's several shops and wondered what Han Luoxue's husband did. Right, he had heard of him before; he seemed to be a peasant from the village.
Such people are not worth fearing at all.
Besides her man, the only other person left is Yunniang. And Yunniang's man too. This is a bit tricky. That man is now an official, after all. I don't know if Tiger and his men would dare to make a move. What if they kill Yunniang too, or sell her off as well…
Chi Hongcai's eyes lit up. How could he have forgotten about Yunniang? Although his little sister was quite old, her looks, figure, and appearance were all top-notch.
To be honest, even teenage girls in their early twenties can't compare to her. This can be sold for money; it's better to make use of waste than to kill someone.
Since Han Luoxue and Yunniang both had accidents, wouldn't all of her shops become hers? What's wrong with her taking some money from them?
The shop was already profitable, and after making a fortune at the casino, his future couldn't be better.
I can't tell Tiger about this idea. What if he snatches it from me? Where am I supposed to find the money then?
Chi Hongcai walked ahead with very light steps, and soon they arrived at the small courtyard again.
"Brother Tiger, I'll have to trouble you with this. Could you find a place to hide first? I'll go knock on the door!"
Tiger glared at Chi Hongcai, but thinking that he would soon see a stunningly beautiful woman, he suppressed his anger and scanned the area around Xiao Yang with his sharp eyes.
The houses here aren't very expensive, so it's probably just for an ordinary person.
Chi Hongcai knocked on the door again, but his voice was much softer than before.
Han Luoxue and the others inside the house also heard it.
"I knew he wasn't the kind of person who would give up easily! Look, he's back again, Xue'er, what should we do?" Old Madam Chi asked with a worried expression.
Yunniang frowned in displeasure; it was the first time she had ever seen such a shameless person.
"It's alright, I'll go out and take a look!"
Han Luoxue smiled nonchalantly; she was just afraid that Chi Hongcai would cause trouble.
The more trouble she causes, the better. She's a law-abiding citizen. If we can't find any fault with Chi Hongcai, how can we get him arrested?
Han Luoxue slowly walked out, with Ye Leng following behind.
Before they even reached the courtyard gate, a figure flashed out and whispered what he had just heard.
"This Chi Hongcai is going too far! What gives him the right?"
Ye Leng was so angry that her eyes turned red. Who would have thought that two people who were not even acquainted with each other would betray each other just because of that thin kinship!
And they sell it so confidently.
What kind of uncle is this?! If she could, she would like to go out and beat that man up.
"Alright, don't be angry. I want to see what other tricks he has up his sleeve!"
When Han Luoxue heard this, she found it hard to believe. She hadn't expected Chi Hongcai to go so far.
But upon further reflection, it made sense. That man was a complete scoundrel; a normal person wouldn't sell their ancestral home and use the money for gambling.
"But I'm still very angry, Madam. How could he do this?"
Han Luoxue raised her hand and pinched her little face: "What's there to be angry about? Don't I have the two of you protecting me? Those people outside are just some thugs. You can't even beat them, can you?"
The two maids hurriedly shook their heads, and Han Luoxue then smiled and said, "Isn't that it? So don't be afraid, let's go out and see what he's up to!"
Opening the door, Han Luoxue saw that only Chi Hongcai was outside. She frowned and asked, "What are you doing here again?"
"Oh dear, Xue'er, didn't I tell you? Your uncle just came to visit your maternal grandparents!"
When Han Luoxue saw that there was no Tiger Brother outside, she understood. She looked around but couldn't see where he was hiding.
"I've already said, you're not welcome here, please leave!"
Han Luoxue's expression turned cold, and her beauty became even more stunning. Chi Hongcai swallowed hard. In all his life, this was the first time he had ever encountered such a stunning beauty!
"Little Xue, I'm still your uncle, and they're my own parents. What's wrong with me coming to see them?"
"Little Xue, you don't look down on your uncle just because his family has fallen on hard times, do you? Don't forget, your uncle prepared a dowry for you back then!"
Dowry? Han Luoxue didn't understand for a moment, but Chi Hongcai chuckled and said, "I'm the only male in the Chi family. Do you think your maternal grandmother and grandfather would have been willing to give you the dowry they gave you last time without my consent?"
Han Luoxue was stunned by his shameless words. She remembered that the dowry was sent by Old Madam Chi, and it was Old Madam Chi's own idea. How did it become her idea in Chi Hongcai's mouth now?
"Oh dear, I had no idea that the dowry was actually given to me by you! Should I call my grandmother over and ask her what she thinks?"
Chi Hongcai hurriedly waved his hand and chuckled, "Xue'er, don't bother your grandmother with such a small matter. How is she feeling? I've been worried about her these past few days. Look at me, I haven't been eating or sleeping well, and I've lost several pounds! Xue'er, let's not keep talking about this outside. Otherwise, shall your uncle go inside first?"
Chi Hongcai was about to go in when Han Luoxue pushed him and slammed the door shut.
"No need. Don't come over again. I've never acknowledged you as my uncle!"
Han Luoxue was already quite strong, and she had just used even more force, almost pushing Chi Hongcai over. He stumbled back several steps before regaining his footing.
"Snow Girl, how could you treat your uncle like this? We're blood relatives! I'm your mother's older brother!"
Unfortunately, no more sounds came from the courtyard. Chi Hongcai had achieved his goal; he believed that Tiger had clearly seen Han Luoxue's appearance just now.
He walked quickly for a few steps until he reached Tiger's hiding place. Without saying a word, he pulled Tiger away.
The two walked quite a distance before Chi Hongcai stopped.
Tiger is still a bit slow-witted.
"Brother Tiger, that was just my niece. What do you think?"
Chi Hongcai raised his chin, and anyone who didn't know better would think he was incredibly powerful.
"You said she's had a child?" Tiger Brother finally came to his senses, his sharp eyes scrutinizing Chi Hongcai.
It must be said that the members of the Chi family are all quite good-looking.
Chi Hongcai was quite handsome, one of the best-looking men.
However, his appearance paled in comparison to the woman he had just met. What could that woman say? In all his years, Tiger had never seen anyone so beautiful.
The top courtesan in the brothel? She's no match for this woman at all.
