Chapter 37: Old Debts (2)

In front of the two henchmen was another hoodlum with, blonde upright hair, holey jeans, scraggy face, and cigarette in his mouth. He was taking puffs of smoke and observing his henchmen's performance with an apathetic expression.

The old shop owner was obviously frightened by the blatant threat of the hoodlums.

He stiffly replied, "En, Boss Hao. I don't have that much money with me right now. Can I give it to you another time, Please..? With this hot weather like today, how can I pay without business?" The old man showed a bitter smile.

The old man was a poor shop owner, how can he have that much money? So the old man decided to stall for more time. If he can't find money he would sell his shop and run away from there. He didn't want to die.

Hearing the old man's words the bald henchman clicked his tongue. He was obviously displeased.

"Tsk, tsk, old coot, don't take a yard after being given an inch. If it wasn't for boss Hao protecting you, this stall would have been wrecked a long time ago." The bald henchman said in a threatening, yet flattering way.

"Yeah, Boss Hao was being magnanimous just by asking only 10,000 yuan for his hard work, yet you still don't wanna give Boss Hao his rightful pay. How can heaven tolerate this?" The short henchman also tried to flatter his boss.

He looked at his Boss and said, "Boss Hao, what should we do about this geezer? He is stubborn as a mule."

The hoodlum called boss Hao flicked his finger and threw the cigarette on the ground he seemed extremely pleased, and he patted his henchmen's shoulder and said to the old man, "This month's collection fee, you can choose to pay, or you can choose not to pay. Either way, I must get the money today. Otherwise I will wreck your food shop today.

"Don't even think for a single second that I don't know your plan. I know what You're thinking, Just give us the money without resistance." The hoodlum added.

The old man's face immediately paled and stutteringly replied, " But, Boss Hao, I really don't have that much money, will this 1000 yuan do?" The old man handed them his hard earned money from his pocket, which he was trying to protect all this while to feed his family.

But if he doesn't give the money now, they would begin to wreck his shop which will cause substantial damage.

When Boss Hao saw the old man's action, he wasn't happy at all, rather his face twisted with anger.

"What did you say?" The blonde haired hoodlum shouted loudly.

Many onlookers saw and heard everything but didn't say anything. Who would have time for unimportant people like that poor old man? Moreover those hoodlums were from the Scarlet Reaper gang.

"Do you think we're beggars, huh?" He kicked a tool in the shop with boiling rage, and "Slap!"

He slapped the old man. The old man fell down on the ground and touched his creased face. Five fingertips marks were printed on his old face.

"I will break your shop into pieces, just wait." He picked a metal pipe lying on the ground and ordered his two henchmen, "Both of you go and break this old man's legs and the shop as well, so that no one dares to resist us in the future," Boss Hao said coldly.

"Alright, Boss." After saying that they grabbed a twig from a nearby shop and started walking to the old man. Both of them had a cruel smile on their face.

"Haha, Old man, You're to blame what is going to happen to you next. Don't blame us, hehehe.."

The old man's face paled with fright, only despair could be seen on his old wrinkled face. Am I going to get beaten at my old age?" The old man questioned himself.

Just when the hoodlums were about to hit the old man, they heard an overbearing voice.

"Stop, You Bastards.." Fu Jinlong was observing the whole incident calmly. But When Fu Jinlong saw that those familiar rotten pieces of sh*t were about to beat an old man, Fu Jinlong couldn't take it anymore.

Although he wasn't a Virgin Marry, he couldn't just blind eye to the tyranny which he could solve easily now. Moreover he had some old debts to settle with those hoodlums.

"Huh!" Upon hearing the shout, the two henchmen stopped at their tracks..

Boss Hao was also startled by the sudden shout behind him. He turned around in order to see who was so audacious enough to berate them. After turning around, he saw the most unexpected person in this world. He was surprised.

Never did he think for a single moment that, the guy would be Fu Jinlong. After thinking about how weak, poor, and homeless Fu Jinlong was, he regained his composure as if everything was in his bags already.

"Everything will be fine as long as the person is the harmless and homeless Fu Jinlong. He would just give him a beating and then shut him up." That's what he thought.
