It wasn't her money?
Rong Chang smiled meaningfully.
Thinking that if it's not now, it will be in the future.
Ignoring Zhang San's words, Rong Shang grasped Shen Changling's hand, preventing him from handing over the ten silver dollars in his hand.
Then her soft little hand covered him.
It felt like an electric current was running through his entire body.
Shen Changling was stunned for a moment, then looked up at her.
Suddenly, his earlobes turned red.
He turned his face away, his gaze intentionally or unintentionally falling on their clasped hands. "Miss, you..."
Rong Shang didn't seem to realize where his unease came from.
She smiled and continued to persuade him, "If you pay this money for my sister, you won't be able to get it back."
That guy's luck with gambling was never good; he lost nine out of ten times.
When do you think she'll be able to raise the money to pay you back?
"Sister." Guan Shuli said with a dissatisfied look on the other end of the line.
But when his gaze fell on the man, Guan Shuli hurriedly said to him in a fake tone, "Sir, I am so grateful to you."
"I will definitely pay you back this money."
She'll be marrying the young master of the Shen family soon. The Shen family is so wealthy and powerful, surely they'd have enough for a mere ten silver dollars?
It's a pity, though, that this person really made her heart flutter.
"It's nothing." Shen Changling withdrew his hand from Rong Chang's.
He reached out to hand over the ten silver dollars to Zhang San and his group.
Rong Chang frowned.
"You're not allowed to give it to me," she said fiercely.
Shen Changling was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and met her stunning profile. "I, I'm just trying to help you."
"Sister, please let this gentleman pay me back first," Guan Shuli said, feigning pitifulness.
In her heart, she had already cursed Rong Shang to the extreme.
Thinking to herself, "They've already agreed to help her pay off the debt, so why is she still so nosy?"
Ke Rongshang refused to change her mind, saying, "Don't even think about it."
Help her pay off her debts? Dream on.
Upon hearing this, the person at the gambling den immediately rolled up his sleeves and said, "You little brat, you don't want to pay your debts, do you?"
“No,” Rong Shang corrected them, “it’s Guan Shuli who owes you money, not me.”
"Oh dear, still so stubborn."
Zhang San was furious. He turned his head, gestured to his men, and said menacingly, "Close the door!"
As soon as he finished speaking...
Two henchmen dressed in black shirts and trousers immediately turned around and closed the door.
In an instant, the sounds of the market were shut out.
Inside the tailor shop, Zhang San shouted, "Smash it!"
"Hey, no, no, no."
Shen Changling still felt that things that could be solved with money shouldn't be blown out of proportion.
When five or six burly men started smashing things in the shop, he quickly went over and handed over all the silver dollars he was holding.
Rong Shang's face darkened when she saw it.
In comparison, Guan Shuli had it much easier than her.
Shen Changling said, "It's not easy for those young girls to do business, so you should be magnanimous and not hold it against them."
"..."
"OK."
Zhang San glanced down and saw ten; none were missing.
He tossed it in his hand, then looked up at Rong Shang.
He pointed at her and said, "Be smarter next time."
Rong Chang sneered.
Just as the group of people turned around and opened the wooden door of the tailor shop, ready to leave...
Suddenly, a loud bang.
Suddenly, the open door slammed shut, both outwards and inwards.
The door struck them hard.
They all cried out in unison and fell to the ground.
Shen Changling was the closest to them at the time.
A person's head was pressed against his shoe.
He quickly pulled it out.
He bent down and patted it with his hand, as if it were very dirty.
