With one hand, he pulled Tongsu's wheelchair around and dodged, while with the other hand, he grabbed Yiwen's shoulder and pulled her aside. At the same time, he kicked out with lightning speed, hitting the young man with the wine bottle right in the chest!
"Ahhh!"
Caught off guard, the young man missed the bottle, and his body, already staggered, was further struck in the chest by Luo Ziqing. He swayed to the side, and the bottle smashed against the wall, shattering into pieces.
"The road is so wide, why did you have to crash into me? Don't you have eyes? Your bangs are so long they're blocking your eyes. If you don't need your eyes, you can donate them to someone who does!"
Luo Ziqing had a sharp tongue, and her fierce and furious voice was even more terrifying than the troublemaking youth, which startled him.
"I, I—" He composed himself before remembering he had to continue reciting his lines. He lay on the ground, pretending to be a fierce demon. "Why are you dodging? If you hadn't dodged, would I have fallen? My leg is injured, you'll have to pay for it!"
Evans pushed up her glasses: "If you hadn't bumped into us, would we have needed to dodge? What you're doing is called staged accident, and we won't pay you."
"You won't pay? You're not leaving without paying!"
The young man shouted unreasonably. At the same time, several other young men with gloomy expressions gathered from both ends of the alley. The leader sneered, "Miss Nan Yao, why are you so silent now that you've seen us, your good brothers?"
Tongsu shook her head: "I don't know you."
"Don't recognize me? Don't pretend! Back in the bar, you called me 'brother' so enthusiastically! You bought those exorbitantly priced drinks without batting an eye, and now you're pretending not to know me?"
"Yeah! If it weren't for you, our bar would be shut down. And now you've even bumped into Brother Hao. Here's what we'll do: you give me some money, and we'll call it even."
Speaking of the original owner spending a lot of money on alcohol at the bar, the background information Tong Su had previously obtained only showed that it was to help her friends from the orphanage who worked at the bar.
Seeing these young people now revealed a part of her past, and she suddenly understood—
The original owner spent money partly because she was being extorted by these young men. In any case, she was going to spend money anyway, and she happened to see her friend acting as a bar girl, so she deliberately spent her money on alcohol and let her friend get a commission.
However, these people's behavior constituted extortion, but they all called her brothers and sisters, and others genuinely thought they were "friends." When Nan's parents investigated, they couldn't find out anything.
Now, the bar has been secretly reported by Nan Yunshen and shut down, losing a large source of income. These people are frantic and, in their anger, have lost their minds and decided to rob her.
Luo Ziqing sneered: "Don't even mention that Yaoyao is sick now and can't remember at all. Even if she does remember, so what? She's not playful anymore, and she's already cut ties with you. Why would she want to pay money to wipe the slate clean?"
Yiwen nodded and began to calculate seriously: "You said the bar closed down because of Yaoyao. Can I interpret that as selling alcohol to minors? That's illegal. If they don't close your bar, then the Industry and Commerce Bureau should close it down. What does it have to do with Yaoyao?"
The young man choked, unable to find a way to shut her up, and angrily cursed, "You brat, shut up! We just want to borrow some more money from her, what are you babbling about?"
Instead of shutting up, Evans became even more scathing: "'Again'? That means you borrowed money from her before. As the saying goes, 'If you borrow and repay, it's easy to borrow again.' You should pay back the money you borrowed before first."
