The Ruthless One

Horrifying!

Xu Hao's gaze was terrifying!

Scarface considered himself a ruthless man, capable of cutting down enemies without flinching. However, in the face of Xu Hao's gaze, he still felt a chill down his spine.

He swallowed hard and trembled as he asked, "Xu Hao, what exactly do you want?"

"Talk?" Xu Hao did not answer directly but instead looked at Zhao Laosi.

Zhao Laosi trembled all over and said in terror, "What are you looking at me for?"

Xu Hao calmly stated, "Life for a life, money for a debt. This is the righteous way of things. My parents owe you money, and I will repay you with interest within the next month."

"However, the injuries my parents and grandfather suffered, you must also repay."

"And it will be repaid ten times over!"

Upon hearing this, Scarface immediately understood Xu Hao's intention and stood up, slapping Zhao Laosi hard across the face.

"Scarface brother, you..." Zhao Laosi covered his swollen face, looking incredulous.

He had gone to collect money for Scarface, but was beaten up by Xu Hao instead, breaking bones and dislocating his shoulder. When he came to Scarface to complain, Scarface not only refrained from attacking Xu Hao, but also beat him?

He was more unjust than Dou'e in ancient Chinese mythology!

Before he could finish speaking, Scarface kicked him to the ground, picked up a bottle, and smashed it on his head.

Instantly, Zhao Laosi's head was bleeding, and he lay on the ground.

Scarface then turned to Xu Hao and asked, "Is this alright, Brother Hao?"

Xu Hao took a sip of his drink and said indifferently, "I said ten times over, didn't you understand?"

Scarface's expression changed, and he grabbed another bottle from the table, smashing it again on Zhao Laosi's head.

One bottle!

Two bottles!

Three bottles!

Four bottles!

Bang! Bang! Bang...

The sound of broken bottles rang out continuously, and Zhao Laosi was beaten to a pulp, barely alive. He looked as if he would die at any moment, miserable beyond words.

This scene terrified everyone present, leaving them pale and stunned.

No one expected Xu Hao to do this!

He was too ruthless!

However, what scared them the most was Xu Hao himself, who remained calm and composed.

The terrifying strength Xu Hao had displayed earlier had frightened even Scarface, who dared not offend him. That was why he turned to beat Zhao Laosi, in order to appease Xu Hao's anger.

Zhao Laosi had been beaten so badly, yet Xu Hao didn't even blink an eye.

This was truly a ruthless one!

Finally, after smashing ten bottles, Xu Hao stopped, panting slightly. He turned to Scarface and asked, "Is this satisfactory to you?"

Xu Hao nodded and said, "Then we're square. You're Zhao Laosi's boss, right? Keep your men in check. If he dares to touch a hair on my family's head again, I'll come to you for reckoning."

"By then, it will be repaid a hundred times over!"

Upon hearing this, Scarface's face darkened.

"If Zhao Laosi retaliates, what's it got to do with him? Why come to him for reckoning?"

"Don't worry, as long as I, Scarface, speak a word, no one dare lay a finger on your family."

However, Scarface, who had seen a lot in life, quickly calmed down and said, "Brother, you're quite skilled. We could say that we met through a fight. Let's be friends!"

"It's a waste for you to be a coach at Sikong Yuan's gym. Come work for me instead."

After pausing, he held up a finger, "I'll give you this much every month."

Xu Hao asked, "One million?"

Scarface's face turned green.

Seeing that Xu Hao was dressed so shabbily, he wanted to put on a show in front of him and offer Xu Hao 100,000 a month, which was definitely a high salary in Guangzhou City.

However, Xu Hao's question left him speechless.

Failed attempt at showing off!

Xu Hao took a sip of his drink, pointed to the business card on the table, and said, "I'm tired of fighting and killing. You should find someone else."

"But if you want to work out, train muscles, need a game coach, boxing sparring partner, homework helper, or anything like that, you can come to me."

"See you later."

After finishing, he waved his hand and turned to leave.

After his figure disappeared behind the booth on the second floor, Scarface finally let out a sigh of relief, feeling a sudden drop in pressure and panting heavily.

As the air-conditioning blew, he felt a chill on his back, realizing he had broken out in a cold sweat.

When facing Xu Hao earlier, he had a misconception that he was dealing with a great king.

Although Xu Hao didn't show any particular aura, his mere presence filled him with a sense of oppression, almost making him struggle to breathe.

Especially Xu Hao's eyes, sharp like a knife or sword, just a glance at him made his heart ache.

He had a misconception that in the next second, Xu Hao would devour him like a wild beast.

That's why he didn't dare to offend Xu Hao and immediately taught Zhao Laosi a lesson to appease Xu Hao's anger.

"What kind of background does Xu Hao have? Why is he so terrifying?"

Scarface trembled as he sat down, drinking several mouthfuls of liquor with trembling hands. He finally calmed down slightly, with a look of terror in his eyes.

Such a terrifying gaze, he had only seen in that legendary figure in his lifetime.

Xu Hao, still young, possessed the same gaze as that legendary figure, indicating that his background must be extraordinary. He was definitely not someone like Scarface could provoke.

....

Xu Hao exited the bar, hailed a taxi, and headed straight to the hospital.

When he arrived at his sister's hospital room, he found that neither his sister nor his parents were there. After inquiring with a nurse, he learned that Xu Xiaoqing's condition had worsened and she had been rushed into the operating room.

Xu Hao's expression changed, and after asking for the location of the operating room, he immediately hurried there.

On the way, he took out his phone to call his parents, but realized that it had run out of battery and turned off without him noticing.

"Damn it!"

Xu Hao cursed and quickly took the elevator to the floor where the operating room was located.

Xu Sancai and Lin Qing stood at the door, looking worried and tense, pacing around like headless flies.

"Dad, Mom, how is it?" Xu Hao asked as he approached.

Upon seeing Xu Hao, Xu Sancai and Lin Qing seemed to have found their anchor.

Lin Qing grasped Xu Hao's hand, her eyes red and tears streaming down her face. She choked out, "Xiaoqing's condition worsened just now, and she was rushed into the operating room for emergency treatment. It's been over three hours, and she hasn't come out yet. Will she...?"

Xu Sancai was also extremely worried.

"Dad, Mom, Xiaoqing is a good person and she'll definitely be fine," Xu Hao comforted them.

He looked at the operating room, feeling a knot in his heart.

He had never been afraid when facing gunfire and drug lords abroad.

But now, he was scared, terrified!

At this moment, the door of the operating room opened, and a doctor wearing surgical scrubs, a mask, and a cap pushed out a hospital bed. "Who are Xu Xiaoqing's family members?"

On the hospital bed lay Xu Xiaoqing, pale and emaciated, lost in unconsciousness.

Xu Sancai and Lin Qing hurriedly approached, "We are her parents, Doctor. Is our daughter okay?"

The doctor explained, "The patient's surgery was successful, and her life has been saved. However, her condition is not optimistic, and there is a high possibility that her condition will worsen. She needs to be admitted to the ICU for observation for a few days. The ICU fees are quite high, so you need to go pay for them."

Xu Sancai's expression changed, "Didn't we just pay 500,000 yuan? Why do we need to pay more?"

The doctor glanced at him coldly, "That 500,000 yuan was for the previous treatment fees owed to the hospital and this surgery. The fees for admission to the ICU are separate."

Lin Qing quickly asked, "Doctor, how much money is needed?"

The doctor said calmly, "If your daughter recovers quickly and is out of danger, it would generally be around 100,000 yuan. However, if her condition worsens, you may need to prepare anywhere from 200,000 to 1 million yuan."

Upon hearing this, Xu Sancai and Lin Qing's faces instantly turned pale.

They still needed so much money?

They were already penniless, where could they get that much money?

Xu Hao stood aside without saying a word, but looked at Xu Xiaoqing on the hospital bed with utter astonishment.

The moment he saw Xu Xiaoqing, a piece of information popped into his mind: "Leukemia Stage 3, spleen removed, blood transfusion, qi and blood deficiency, life-threatening at any time."

"Treating with the Nine Dragon Life-Extending Needles can save her from the danger."
