To make up for the debt owed to Lin Qingping and Gu Juncheng

Looking at the four burly men, Wu Axiu's fear reached its peak. Her whole body trembled like a leaf, and she pointed at Gu Juncheng, "This...this...this is my son-in-law."

All four people turned their gazes toward Gu Juncheng.

"Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt its debtor," Gu Juncheng said coldly. "Whoever borrowed the money should pay it back!"

But how could these men let him leave? They knew Wu Axiu and Lin Jiagui all too well; those two couldn't come up with a single penny! If they still had money, would they be hiding here? Now that a sucker had finally appeared, if they didn't stop him, where would they collect their money if he escaped?

The three people at the door quickly surrounded Gu Juncheng, making it impossible for him to leave.

Wu Axiu was terrified by Gu Juncheng's actions, and her precious son was beaten up like this. She hated Gu Juncheng to death and wished that these people would beat Gu Juncheng to death, as a way to avenge her son!

But she only dared to think this in her heart and didn't dare to say it out loud. What if Gu Juncheng wasn't beaten to death and came to cause her trouble again in the future? She couldn't bear the fear.

"What? You want to make a move?" Gu Juncheng asked coldly.

These four people didn't take Gu Juncheng seriously at all.

Gu Juncheng was indeed very tall, but he was well-proportioned and had a muscular physique with even lines, making him appear slimmer in clothes. Compared to these four burly men, he looked rather thin.

Even Wu Axiu agrees with this opinion: no matter how powerful Gu Juncheng is, can he defeat four opponents?

"Beat him! Beat him to death!" Wu Axiu prayed silently in her heart. Since he wasn't going to help her son pay back the money anyway, she might as well beat him to death! If she killed him, she could still use him to control Lin Qingping!

Gu Juncheng walked out with his head held high, but the three people at the door blocked the door completely, not moving an inch. One of them even reached out to push him.

However, before her hand could even touch Gu Juncheng's shoulder, Gu Juncheng twisted her wrist, causing her to scream in pain.

"Oh, he's got some skills!" another burly man said, but still didn't take him seriously, after all, there were four of them on his side.

With a shout of "Go!", the other three rushed towards Gu Juncheng. Gu Juncheng leaped into the air and executed a spinning kick, and with three consecutive thuds, all three fell to the ground.

Gu Juncheng threw the person he was twisting forward, and the four of them fell to the ground.

In the darkness, Gu Juncheng coldly stared at everyone in the room. "Want to come again?"

This question was directed at the four burly men: Did they still want to fight? It was also directed at Wu Axiu and Lin Jiagui: Did they still want to cause trouble for Lin Qingping?

The four burly men had come to ask for money and didn't want to mess with this tough nut. They looked at each other and remained silent.

Disappointment and fear mingled within Wu Axiu. Just moments ago, she had hoped that Gu Juncheng would die, but now that he was leaving, she was even more afraid. At least, no matter how ruthless Gu Juncheng was, he wouldn't kill anyone. These four people were truly deadly!

"If you don't fight, and I don't fight, someone else will kill him!"

Gu Juncheng's words echoed in her ears like a demonic whisper, and only then did she understand their meaning.

“Chengzi…Chengzi…you can’t leave…If you don’t abandon me and Jiagui, we’ll really be beaten to death…” Wu Axiu crawled around begging him, but she couldn’t let go of Lin Jiagui. She crawled around on the ground, crying incessantly.

Gu Juncheng ignored him, turned around and walked out of the dilapidated house, quickly disappearing into the darkness.

The door to the dilapidated wooden house closed again.

From inside came the roar of a burly man and Wu Axiu's hysterical screams.

Gu Juncheng stood outside and heard the conversation inside clearly. It was just that a big man was forcing the mother and son to return the money. The mother and son didn't have it and were begging for it. Then, either Wu Axiu or Lin Jiagui was beaten again.

Wu Aixiu cried and shouted, "Stop hitting me! Stop hitting me! We'll give you back your money! We'll give you back your money!"

"Here we go again? How many times have you said that? Do you think we still believe you? Do you think we're fools?" the Khan roared.

"Really, really!" Wu Axiu cried. "This time it's definitely for real... We'll give you three days, really three days, and we'll definitely return it after three days!"

"Is that so? Hiding again after three days?" the Khan roared angrily.

"No, no, no, this time it's really not possible... really not possible..." Wu Axiu said, crying.

"Alright! Then leave us a token so we can trust you!"

Wu Axiu stammered, "What...what do you want? We have nothing left!"

The brief silence inside was suddenly broken by a scream—from Lin Jiagui.

Then Wu Axiu cried wildly, "Jiagui! Jiagui! How could you cut off his finger! He's going to take the college entrance exam, how will he write now! He's going to marry a cadre's daughter, now she'll look down on him! Jiagui, Jiagui, are you alright? Does it hurt, Jiagui!"

"It's just one finger. If you don't return it in three days, we'll cut off another one! Let's see how many fingers you have enough to cut off!"

Gu Juncheng watched the police car speeding toward the dilapidated house and knew he could retire.

He was the one who called the police.

He was the one who found out Lin Jiagui's whereabouts.

He was the one who notified the four burly men.

We must teach them a lesson, but we must also catch the bad guys.

Like catching turtles in a jar, none of them can escape.

At this very moment, another team of police officers has likely already rushed off in another direction to wipe out the group of people who set up the illegal casino!

It was very late when Gu Juncheng got home.

Zhiyuan was already asleep, Lin Qingyun had returned to school, and only Lin Qingping was at home. She had already taken a shower and was sitting on the sofa with the TV on and a book in hand. It was unclear whether she was watching TV or reading.

The door opened, and she turned around to see him. She was quite surprised. "Where have you been all day? I thought you went back to school!"

"I've gone to take care of Lin Jiagui's matter." He didn't intend to hide it from her; he wanted her to know that the matter was over so she could feel at ease. "Everything's been taken care of. The people who needed to be arrested have been arrested. No one will come looking for you to pay your debts anymore, and your mother won't be bothering you for a while."

Lin Qingping was slightly taken aback. She remembered that she hadn't told him about this, yet he had spent the whole day outside dealing with it.

She thought about it and realized that it must have been Gu Youlian who told him.

A warm feeling welled up in her heart, and she asked him first, "You haven't eaten yet, have you? I..." She didn't ask about what happened, because she wanted him to eat first, and then they could sit down and talk slowly together.

As a result, Gu Juncheng's expression was not good. He casually picked up a piece of chalk that Zhiyuan used to write characters, drew a circle on the ground, and said, "Stand inside."

Lin Qingping: ? ? ?

He pointed to the circle that was just big enough for one person to stand in, "Lin Qingping, get in there! Think carefully about where you went wrong!"
