The night was as dark as ink, and Sun Xinyi's house was shrouded in the blinding beams of several flashlights, making it appear particularly eerie.
In the courtyard, several burly men stood at the entrance, their arms tattooed with ferocious dragon and tiger patterns, and their faces bearing malicious smiles.
The leader, known as "Tiger Brother," was tall and burly with a face full of scars. He had a cigarette dangling from his lips and a fierce look in his eyes.
"Sun Jian, you fucking owe money and you're not paying it back, how long are you going to keep dragging it out?"
Tiger's voice boomed like thunder, making the air in the courtyard tremble.
"I've been giving you face by letting you live this long, and now I'm getting impatient!"
Sun Jian stood at the door, his hair disheveled, his face covered in stubble, and his eyes filled with despair.
His hands were clenched tightly, and his voice trembled slightly: "Brother Tiger, I beg you, please give me a few more days. I really will find a way to pay back the money."
Tiger sneered and kicked over the stool in front of Sun Jian: "A few days? How are you going to pay me back? Your meager salary isn't even enough to fill a tooth gap!"
Just then, Sun Xinyi's younger sister, Sun Yuxin, ran out of the house.
She was only a teenager, her face still showing signs of childhood, but she was so frightened by the scene before her that she burst into tears: "Daddy, what are they going to do?"
Tiger's gaze fell on Sun Yuxin, a lewd glint in his eyes: "Hey, this little girl is quite pretty. Sun Jian, if you can't pay back the money, just use your daughter to settle the debt. I just happen to need a plaything."
Sun Jian's face instantly turned ashen. He rushed forward, but Tiger kicked him to the ground: "You fucking dare to move?"
Sun Jian's wife, Chu Hongyue, dragged her frail body out of the house. Her face was pale and her lips were chapped, but her eyes revealed a firm determination.
She stood in front of Sun Yuxin, her voice weak but resolute: "You won't touch my daughter!"
Tiger laughed loudly and reached out to grab Chu Hongyue's shoulder: "Old woman, get out of my way, or I'll get rough!"
"If you dare touch my mom, I'll fight you to the death!"
Sun Yuxin rushed forward crying, but was grabbed by Tiger's henchmen, and she screamed in fright.
Sun Jian knelt on the ground, his eyes filled with despair and anger. He covered his head with his hands, his voice trembling with sobs: "Brother Hu, I beg you, please let my daughter go! I really will find a way to pay back the money!"
Tiger completely ignored him.
He stared at Sun Yuxin and Chu Hongyue, his eyes filled with greed and lewdness: "Sun Jian, if you know what's good for you, hand over both of your daughters to me. If I'm in a good mood, I might spare your life."
The atmosphere in the courtyard was extremely tense, and Sun Jian's face grew increasingly grim.
He gritted his teeth, unsure of what to do. Just then, the roar of a car engine came from afar, growing ever closer.
As night fell, the dim streetlights barely illuminated Sun Xinyi's dilapidated courtyard.
Lin Yuan drove a Pagani Zonda with Sun Xinyi slowly into the alley.
The car headlights swept across, illuminating the figures of several burly men with ferocious dragon and tiger tattoos on their arms, making them look exceptionally fierce.
Sun Xinyi's face turned deathly pale instantly. She gripped Lin Yuan's arm tightly, her voice trembling, "Lin Yuan, these people are here to collect debts! My father, my mother, and my sister, they..."
Before he could finish speaking, the car door was suddenly pulled open.
Tiger's henchman, a burly man with a thick beard and a face full of scars, had a cigarette dangling from his mouth and sized up Lin Yuan with a sidelong glance: "Hey, this kid's got some money, driving such a nice car. Here to pay me back?"
Lin Yuan snorted and got out of the car first, followed by Sun Xinyi.
In the courtyard, Sun Jian was kneeling on the ground, his face full of despair, while his wife, Chu Hongyue, dragged her weak body and stood in front of their daughter, Sun Yuxin, who was crying her heart out in fear.
Tiger looked at Sun Jian with disdain: "Brother Sun, look at your two daughters, so beautiful and pretty. They can easily marry a rich man, and this little bit of money is nothing to them! Why don't you marry them to me, and you become my father-in-law, and I'll forgive all the debts!"
The henchmen immediately burst into laughter.
Tiger's laughter echoed in the courtyard. He crossed his arms and looked at Sun Jian with a smug expression, as if he had driven the other man into a corner.
He flicked the cigarette butt in his hand and said in a flippant tone, "Brother Sun, look at your two daughters, so beautiful. They can easily find a rich man to date. What's a little money to them?"
He paused deliberately, put on a "kind" expression, and continued, "How about this, you marry your two daughters to me, you become my father-in-law, and I'll forgive this debt. Anyway, they're just sitting around doing nothing, so why don't they become my personal maids? Maybe they can live a good life."
The henchmen immediately burst into laughter, clapping and jeering, their laughter filled with lewdness and mockery.
Sun Jian's face turned extremely ugly, his fists were clenched so tightly that his nails almost dug into his flesh.
He gritted his teeth, his voice low and angry: "Brother Tiger, don't go too far!"
Tiger ignored Sun Jian's anger and laughed even more arrogantly.
The atmosphere in the courtyard was extremely oppressive. Sun Jian felt like he had been driven to a dead end, yet he was completely helpless.
He could only look helplessly at his wife and daughter, his eyes filled with guilt and despair.
Sun Jian's face was ashen; he gritted his teeth, but couldn't utter a single word.
Sun Xinyi was so angry that she trembled all over. Just as she was about to speak, Lin Yuan stopped her.
Lin Yuan walked slowly towards Tiger, his eyes cold: "Tiger? Don't you recognize me?"
Tiger stared at Lin Yuan's face, a hint of surprise and uncertainty flashing in his eyes, as if he were thinking of an old friend.
