Chapter 87 The Xie Family's Decline
Upon hearing this, Madam Xie's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly stepped forward with the help of Granny Sun.
Xie Jinbo was pale, his disheveled hair was plastered to his face with cold sweat, and his lips had turned blue from blood loss. He was barely breathing and was on the verge of death.
The most shocking sight was Xie Jinbo's legs, which had been brutally severed and were covered in blood and flesh. The two severed legs were also put away at the foot of the bed. Such a bizarre scene was truly horrifying.
"Who...did this?!"
Madam Xie was both heartbroken and furious. Even though her grandson was useless, she could not allow others to harm him like this!
"Replying to the old lady..."
The servant who first discovered Xie Jinbo said tremblingly, "According to people outside, it was done by people from Wansheng Casino."
"Wansheng Casino...a casino!?"
Upon hearing this, Madam Xie's cries grew even more piercing. "Why did the Wansheng Casino want to kill my son?! Haven't all the debts been paid off?! Why do they have to do this to my son again?!"
The servant cowered, not daring to answer. He had slept soundly last night for some reason and only discovered Xie Jinbo being left at the door when it was almost noon. He really didn't know what had happened to the second young master.
At this moment, the people of the main branch of the family also rushed over after hearing the commotion. They were all shocked when they saw Xie Jinbo's miserable state, but a hint of pleasure flashed in Madam Xie's eyes.
Ever since her Yunqi left, that bitch from the second wife has been bragging about her son in front of her from time to time. Although she doesn't know what exactly happened, it seems that Xie Jinbo, that good-for-nothing, has been punished by heaven!
When Xie Zhongchang, the second master of the Xie family, saw his elder brother arrive, he hurriedly stepped forward and pleaded tearfully, "Brother! You must stand up for the CIIE!"
Xie Longqing's expression was equally unpleasant, but he wasn't heartbroken over his nephew's miserable state; rather, he was annoyed that the matter had become such a public spectacle.
He was incorruptible in his official career, never getting his hands dirty, all to maintain Xie Longqing's good reputation.
On the way here, he had already heard the servant recount the general course of events, and the thought of such a scandal involving the Xie family filled him with rage.
"Why would someone from the casino chop off his legs when he was perfectly fine?!"
Xie Longqing said coldly, "You should find out why your son is going to the casino to fool around again!!"
Seeing that his elder brother immediately began to berate his son, Xie Zhongchang became even more furious. "Even if my son has made a huge mistake, he doesn't deserve to die! How can you, as an elder, not care about your nephew and instead take the side of those scumbags from the casino?!"
Just as the atmosphere between the two brothers was becoming increasingly tense, another servant rushed in in a panic.
"Oh no! Those people from the Wansheng Casino are back!"
Upon hearing that the casino people had arrived, Madam Xie was the first to stand up, her eyes red as she walked out. "They actually dared to come?! I want to ask them why they hurt my son like this?!"
Seeing his wife storm out, Xie Zhongchang forgot about arguing with his elder brother and hurriedly followed her.
Although Xie Longqing didn't want to get involved in these dirty affairs, as the pillar of the family, he still had to show up at such a scene, and the old lady followed closely behind.
As soon as the group arrived at the entrance of the Xie residence, they saw Wang Er, a staff member of the Wansheng Casino, leading dozens of fierce-looking burly men who blocked the entrance.
"It was you bastards who hurt my son?!"
Madam Xie was so heartbroken that she lost her mind. She lunged forward and grabbed Wang Er by the collar, shouting, "How dare you cut off my son's legs... I'll fight you to the death!"
Wang Er snorted coldly when he saw her like this, and without letting go because of the woman and child, he pushed the Second Madam to the ground with great force.
"And now you're putting on this mother-son sympathy act? Last night, Xie Erlang owed five thousand taels of silver in gambling debts at our casino. I brought men to your Xie residence and knocked on the door half the night, but no one came out to answer!"
"We already warned you that if you didn't hand over the money by dawn, we would cut off his legs. Did you think we casino people were joking?! Since you won't pay back the money, we will naturally cut off his legs!"
Upon hearing this, Madam Xie was stunned. Five...five thousand taels of silver?
She actually gambled away another five thousand taels of silver at the China International Import Expo!?
"What are you knocking on the door!?"
Xie Zhongchang immediately stepped forward to argue with Wang Er, "We didn't hear anything last night. If there had been any noise, wouldn't the gatekeeper have reported it?!"
"I'm too lazy to waste my breath on you guys."
Wang Er was never very patient. "Your neighbors all witnessed this last night. If you don't believe me, go ask them yourselves! I'm here today to make sure you get out of the Xie residence!"
"Get out of the Xie residence?!"
Upon hearing this, Xie Longqing stepped forward, his face turning ashen, and said, "You have quite the nerve to tell us to get out?"
"Open your dog eyes and see clearly."
Wang Er flashed the land deed in his hand, "Yesterday, Xie Jinbo lost all the land deeds to your Xie family's house and fields to us. Now that we have the land deeds, this house no longer belongs to you, but to our Wansheng Casino!"
"I'm here to reclaim this territory on the orders of our Manager Chen! If you know what's good for you, pack your bags and leave. If not, my brothers aren't pushovers either!"
Upon hearing this, Madam Xie's heart tightened, and she quickly gestured for Granny Sun to step forward and check.
"Madam...it's true."
Upon hearing Sun Momo's trembling voice, Old Madam Xie was struck dumb and immediately burst into tears of hatred.
"How could this be! My house... the Xie family's wealth accumulated over so many years... has all been destroyed in my hands! Master... I'm so sorry!"
Madam Xie cried out to the sky, then her crying stopped abruptly, and she fell straight backward, fainting.
"Mother!?"
The Xie family members rushed forward upon seeing this, and chaos ensued. "Quick...quickly carry Mother inside! Get a doctor!"
Wang Er remained unmoved, and said fiercely, "Although you are not entitled to take anything from the Xie family mansion, my manager took pity on your Xie family for having such a spendthrift son, and specially allowed you to take your own clothes. But everything else belongs to our Wansheng Casino, so don't try anything funny!"
The Xie family was suddenly struck by this misfortune. Jixiang learned about the farce at the Xie mansion's gate from the secret guards and was immediately shocked.
Yesterday, Jiang Yuyue specifically asked Old Madam Xie for the Xie family's land deed. Today, Xie Erlang lost all the land deed and ended up in such a state. Could it be...?
