Chapter 794: How about kidnapping her one more time
? After everyone sat down, Elder Huo pulled out a bank card from his pocket. "This card contains five million yuan. It's compensation for your emotional distress from the Zeng family."
Liu Liang took the card and shook it in her hand. Five million yuan on a thin piece of paper.
It was a generous gesture.
Otherwise, she could have them kidnap her a few more times. It would be easier than winning the lottery.
Liu Liang placed the card on the table, treating gold and silver like dirt.
After all, she had taken over the Zeng family's lair. So, this mere five million yuan seemed insignificant compared to the value of those jadeite. "They promised not to bother you again. Xu Bai will have nothing to do with the Zeng family from now on."
Elder Huo put down his teacup and continued, his words a bit persuading. "But he's Xu Bai's family after all. I can't be too embarrassing. With that blood relationship, even if he didn't grow up in the Zeng family, there's no denying his surname is Zeng." "
Liu Liang knew, and Zeng Xubai certainly understood it too, otherwise, he would not have worked as a horse for the Zeng family for so many years, and finally left with such a desperate effort.
"So what Mr. Huo means is..."
Liu Liang put his hands on the table, also playing with the card, "They just want to use five million to get rid of us?"
"Didn't Xubai beat up Zeng Shu, and he is still in the hospital."
Old Huo was helpless. The couple were simply more brutal than the other, and the kid was half dead.
"He also has the surname Zeng, shouldn't he protect his grandfather and father from disaster?"
Liu Liang threw the card aside, "He doesn't even have this little spirit of sacrifice, is he worthy of being a grandson or a son?"
"A son pays for his father's debts, it's a matter of course. We can't beat other people in the Zeng family, but we can always beat this kid."
"I understand. "
Old Huo raised his hand quickly, fearing that Liu Liang would blame him for the mistake. He was really just a messenger, and of course he was also doing some mediation. After all, if things got out of hand, it would be embarrassing for both of them. If that happened, both of them would suffer losses, which would not be good for Liu Liang.
"Now the fight has been over, and the money has been paid. What else do you want them to do?"
"No need."
Liu Liang was too lazy to meet people with the surname Zeng again. "Just don't let that family show up in front of me." No, except for Zeng Xubai's surname, she didn't even want to hear a single word about Zeng in that family.
It would be best if they didn't see each other alive or related to each other in death. Whether the Zeng family lived or died in the future was their own business.
"Okay."
Old Huo could agree. With "several of us old guys here, Zeng Liang wouldn't dare. "
Using the entire future of the Zeng family to cause trouble for Liu Liang and Zeng Xubai, they also have to weigh whether the Zeng family can withstand the storms again and again. The decline of the Zeng family is already at the blink of an eye. Now it is just superficial vanity and inner emptiness. Zeng Liang knows it better than anyone else, so it is even more impossible for him to use the Zeng family to fight with others.
It is possible that he will still fight hard, not only for his own life, but also for the fate of the Zeng family, and even the lives of his children and grandchildren. Don't underestimate Zeng Xubai and his wife. If they really fight, they can really make the Zeng family restless, and they can also beat the next generation of the Zeng family to death.
"I have brought the words."
Old Huo picked up the cup again, and the smile on his face was too fake.
"The money is also here.
So..."
He put down his cup and rubbed his hands. "Look, I haven't been feeling well lately. I keep feeling like something's not right, and I don't have much strength. Would you mind prescribing me some medicine, or arranging for me to stay in a hospital for a while?"
Liu Liang rolled his eyes at him. "
Shameless!" "
If you want medicine, just ask directly. Why are you beating around the bush like this? Does he really think others don't know what's going on? "
Liu Liang pulled out two small porcelain bottles from under the table.
"These are new."
Liu Liang pushed the bottles toward Elder Huo.
Elder Huo quickly took them out and opened one. A faint, refreshing aroma filled his nostrils. The medicinal scent was subtle, yet the herbal aroma was rich.
He knew it was good stuff the moment he took a whiff.
One thing Liu Liang's medicines were particularly special about was that the lighter the flavor, the more effective it was. Of course, the lighter the flavor, the more Liu Liang added to the herbal remedy, while the other herbs decreased accordingly, so the lighter the flavor was normal.
But it was this little bit of uniqueness that caught Old Huo's eye.
He sniffed the medicine again and again with satisfaction, thinking that after taking the two bottles of medicine, his health would surely improve. He'd have no problem living past ninety. Most importantly, he could live a quality life, not the half-dead existence he'd been in before.
"Okay, everything's settled. I'll be leaving now. If you need anything else, just call me."
Old Huo stood up, tucked the medicine bottle, which he had already tucked into his arms.
"Remember to let me know about things like this in the future. I'm happy to run errands for you."
Old Huo smiled, touching the bottle in his arms.
It was a truly great idea. He didn't have to show up himself, so he could just call two old friends. Those old friends had everything, but they also had some power. It would only take a few words to accomplish this. He could share a little of the medicine he got from Liu Liang with them. They'd be grateful, and he could even get two portions from Liu Liang.
He would be willing to do anything for this kind of good thing that was effortless and could please people, not just one, but a hundred.
But Liu Dian was too petty. He rarely asked him for help, leaving him no chance to show his ability. In the past, whenever he wanted medicine, he would find this excuse or that excuse. He used all his intelligence on this.
Oh, asking for help was so difficult...
Unlike now, he hadn't even asked yet, and the good medicine kept coming to him.
"I know."
Liu Ge replied lazily. She still felt bad about the two bottles of medicine that Mr. Huo had taken away. Forget it, she would dig more grass in the future and store more so that she wouldn't feel bad when she needed them.
After Mr. Huo left, Liu Liang lay down on the table and propped up her chin with her hand.
"When will the Zeng family know that their treasure house is being coveted?"
Liu Jing...
"Probably not in the short term."
Zeng Xubai lowered his eyelashes slightly. "They don't have that much time to keep an eye on the treasure house every day. Besides, the Zeng family is busy with their own affairs now. It will take a long time to recover. They may not remember to go to the treasure house to take a look."
And by the time they remember, it will be a long time.
The more Liu Jing listened, the more relieved she felt.
