Chapter 102: Turning Point (Part 4)



In a small alley, several thugs surrounded a middle-aged man who looked disheveled.

The middle-aged man wanted to escape, but how could he, with his big belly, be a match for several young and strong men? Soon he was blocked in a dead end.

Several people beat him with fists and kicks. The middle-aged man curled up and held his head tightly with both hands.

"Please let me go... I really have no money... I can't pay it back..."

"What debt did you borrow if you can't pay it back?"

"I didn't borrow it. You found the wrong person..."

"Wrong person? Your fingerprints are on it! Do you think we are blind?"

Another round of punches and kicks.

When Su Xiaoxiao and Su Ergou passed by the alley, they subconsciously looked inside.

Su Ergou exclaimed: "Sister, that person's voice sounds a little familiar... Could it be Doctor Fu?"

The first person he thought of when he saw the middle-aged man and the name sounded familiar was Doctor Fu.

A thug saw the brother and sister and shouted at them, "What are you looking at? If you keep looking, I'll beat you up too!"

"Fuck you!" The little bully Su was enraged. He had just finished the last bite of the biscuit. He rolled the bamboo leaves into a ball and threw it at the man without any hesitation!

The man was hit in the face.

It didn't hurt, but it was a slap in the face! The two sides started fighting.

When it comes to fighting, the bully from the Su family has never been afraid.

These three were just small thugs in the gambling house, and they were not a big deal. Su Xiaoxiao didn't even make a move on them. Su Ergou went solo and slayed the whole audience.

The three ran away cursing! Su Ergou always felt that something was wrong. When he helped the person curled up on the ground, he finally understood where the problem came from.

He curled his lips in disdain: "Hey, why is it you?"

Shopkeeper Sun also opened his mouth in astonishment: "Brother Su, Brother Su? Miss Su?"

He never expected that the people who saved him were his former opponents - Su Xiaoxiao and Su Ergou.

Thinking back to the past, he was so glorious that he didn't even look at the siblings. But now, he is hiding from his creditors and his former glory is gone. How miserable can one word describe him? Su Ergou asked, "Mr. Sun, how did you get yourself into this state?"

Shopkeeper Sun leaned against the wall and sat down, sighing, "Oh, don't mention it anymore."

Su Xiaoxiao folded her arms and looked down at him: "Just mention it. After all, we saved you, so let us laugh at you."

Shopkeeper Sun: ...Is it really okay to stab someone in the back like this?

However, after hiding for so many days, he really had a lot to say and he had to get it off his chest.

He leaned against the cold wall behind him and looked up at the gray and boundless sky: "Jin Ji has a new manager. Did you notice?"

Su Ergou said: "Yeah, that guy surnamed He is even more shameless than you!"

Shopkeeper Sun: Who are you scolding?

Shopkeeper Sun calmed himself down and continued, "I have worked hard for Jinji over the years, rain or shine, every day. I, Sun Quan, dare to say that I have made great contributions to the success of Jinji!"

"Pfft——" Su Xiaoxiao laughed.

This guy is actually called Sun Quan?

Liu Bei wants to jump out and beat you to death! Shopkeeper Sun looked at Su Xiaoxiao with hurt expression: "You're still laughing?"

Su Xiaoxiao said confidently: "I am adding insult to injury, so of course I will laugh."

Shopkeeper Sun: ... What kind of brother and sister are they? In short, Shopkeeper Sun's experience can be summarized as he dedicated half his life to Jinji and treated Jinji as his own child, but he never thought that he would be abandoned by Jinji in the end.

"The man surnamed He is a relative of the boss," he said.

Su Xiaoxiao suddenly realized: "No wonder he is so arrogant."

Shopkeeper Sun had revealed his true colors, and presented his whole self to the brother and sister openly.

I have no face to save anyway, so let it be embarrassing.

It would have been fine if this had not been mentioned. Once it was mentioned, Shopkeeper Sun's face became even uglier.

That was just the beginning, and this is the moment that truly makes a man lose face.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at his constipated expression and guessed, "Could it be that your concubine ran off with someone else and took away your private money, and then borrowed a lot of debts and made you the scapegoat?"

Su Ergou put his hands on his hips and laughed: "Haha! Sister! Where in the world can there be such a stupid and unlucky man?"

Shopkeeper Sun stopped talking.

Su Ergou stopped laughing: "Ah, it's true..."

Su Xiaoxiao patted Shopkeeper Sun's shoulder sympathetically.

The next second, the brother and sister were laughing so hard that they almost died.

After the brother and sister finished laughing, Shopkeeper Sun was numb.

But what can he say? It's all his own fault.

Su Xiaoxiao touched her belly and said, "Huh, I must have lost two taels."

The rumored abs that show off after laughing!

Shopkeeper Sun said, "Your business is getting bigger and bigger. I passed by Jinji the other day and saw that there were more people lining up in front of your stall than in front of Jinji."

Su Xiaoxiao said proudly: "Yeah, you're envious, right?"

Shopkeeper Sun sighed and said, "I underestimated you, girl. You are not an ordinary person."

Su Xiaoxiao said shamelessly: "There are many people who look down on me, and you are not the only one. But in the future, it's okay to say a few more words of this truth."

This is the first time that Shopkeeper Sun has seen someone so shameless.

"Are you still supplying Jin Kee?" he asked.

"No more." Su Xiaoxiao said, "The He guy is a scoundrel. He wants to chase us away and even sent people to block us on the road."

Su Ergou showed off his biceps: "In the end, we beat him up!"

"You are a stubborn girl." Shopkeeper Sun suddenly thought of something and laughed happily, "Jinji is finished."

Su Xiaoxiao sighed, "What's the point of it? It's just an egg yolk pastry. Even if we don't sell it, the business is still good."

Shopkeeper Sun said with a smile, "You don't know? Tomorrow is the birthday party of Mr. Qi's family. I went through so much trouble and used so many connections to get the snacks to the Qi family. After tasting them, Mrs. Qi liked the wife cakes and egg yolk pastry, especially the egg yolk pastry. Mrs. Qi said that this snack is indispensable. Now that you are not supplying Jinji, their egg yolk pastry will not be made. If you ruin the birthday party of the Qi family, you will be in big trouble!"

After hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao did not gloat over the misfortune. Instead, she remained silent, which was unusual for her.

"How many egg yolk pastries do you want for the Qi family's birthday banquet?" she asked.

Shopkeeper Sun said, "One hundred."

Su Xiaoxiao frowned: "It's her!"

"What's wrong?" Shopkeeper Sun was confused by Su Xiaoxiao's sudden reaction.

Su Xiaoxiao said, "It's been very peaceful these past two days. Jinji didn't pick a fight with us. A woman came to me and bought a hundred salted duck eggs."

These sentences seemed unrelated, but how shrewd was Shopkeeper Sun? He immediately figured out what was going on! His face changed drastically: "It was sent by Mr. He! He bought your ingredients!"

"Ah? Didn't that woman buy it for her son? Was she running errands for Mr. He?" Su Ergou was furious! Mr. He was so abominable! Su Xiaoxiao frowned, but soon, her brows relaxed.

She curled her lips and smiled: "You negotiated the deal before the New Year, right?"

This chapter does not ask for monthly tickets, it is purely a chapter of gratitude.

I saw a lot of old readers in my new article. You all are here, which is the greatest support for me.

There are also many new faces joining the pursuit of greater success, and I am really grateful.
