Then let the witch offer her loyalty

Qian Yan put away the money and bowed respectfully, saying, "Brother Fei, one more round, I'm sure my luck will turn around next time!"

"Shut up, I'm making a phone call." Luo Fei flicked a cigarette out of the crumpled cigarette pack, lit it, and took out his phone to dial a number while smoking.

After a while, he put down his phone and cursed, "Damn it, still can't get in touch. Did that guy surnamed Zhao run away?"

Qian Yan said with a smile, "Let him run, one can run, there's always another one."

Luo Fei grinned, revealing his rotten, yellow teeth stained with tobacco: "You know what, I've seen that girl's picture. She's fucking gorgeous. I don't know how that bastard managed to trick her into it."

"I'm not kidding, I actually wish that guy surnamed Zhao would run away. That girl would be so helpless being left behind. Then I can give her a hug, hehe~"

Luo Fei smiled, and his underlings around him all laughed along.

"Come on, come on, even if you lose money today, let's play a few more rounds."

Just as Luo Fei was shouting to continue, one of his underlings ran over and whispered in his ear, "Brother Fei, a man and a woman have come outside. They say they're here to return the money."

Luo Fei raised an eyebrow, took the nearly burned cigarette, rubbed it out with his calloused index finger and thumb, and tossed it into his teacup.

"Let them in."

Soon, two figures, one tall and one short, walked over.

Chen Moxin walked in front, with Gu Qiaoqiao following behind.

A well-behaved girl like Gu Qiaoqiao has never even been to a bar, let alone a legitimate outpost of a violent border group.

Although she tried her best to remain calm, after all, it was her own initiative to accompany Chen Moxin here.

But the unpleasant smell of smoke in the air, the dim light, and the greedy eyes of the thugs all made Gu Qiaoqiao feel an overwhelming unease.

Just then, she suddenly felt a warm and strong touch on her hand.

Chen Moxin took her hand and turned back to give her a gentle, comforting look, as if to say, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

In Gu Qiaoqiao's memory, this was not the first time Chen Moxin had tried to hold her hand.

I remember when we were in our second year of high school, the school went on a spring outing. When we were walking across a pond on the mountain, Chen Moxin took the opportunity to hold her hand, but she hurriedly pulled away.

This time, even though it was just holding hands, Gu Qiaoqiao felt an unprecedented sense of security. She subconsciously grabbed Chen Moxin's hand and followed behind him with her head down.

Chapter 120: The Craving for Splitting Returns

(Two updates combined)

Luo Fei squinted and first glanced at Gu Qiaoqiao with a flirtatious look. When he found that the little girl was even more beautiful in person than in the photos, excitement immediately appeared in his eyes, and he smiled very slickly.

But soon, Gu Qiaoqiao noticed the blatant gaze and carefully shrank behind Chen Moxin, with only half of her head sticking out.

Luo Fei was immediately disappointed. He looked at Chen Moxin and asked in a very unfriendly tone, "Who are you? And what about that guy surnamed Zhao?"

Chen Moxin said calmly, "You don't need to worry about where Zhao Guangzheng went. He owes you money, right? I'll pay it back."

Luo Fei chuckled, which made his underlings burst into laughter as well.

"Wow! The ultimate sucker!"

"Wow~ I saw a live turtle~"

"This is hilarious! Does this guy think he's handsome?"

"What are you laughing at? Such a pretty girl, I'd be happy to take her too!"

Luo Fei also looked at Chen Moxin as if she were an idiot.

"The girl behind you is your guarantor. Now that Zhao Guangzheng has run away, do you know how much money she has to pay back?"

"You said."

Seeing that Chen Moxin's expression was very calm, Luo Fei's face showed a hint of suspicion. He thought for a while and then gave a wink to the underling next to him.

The younger brother took out his phone, did some calculations, and replied, "The principal, interest, and late payment penalties add up to a total of 24168200 Rose Coins."

Upon hearing this enormous sum, Chen Moxin showed no emotion whatsoever, casually stating, "Give me the payment account."

The underlings who were laughing just now are now unable to laugh.

Dude, you really have that much money?

Luo Fei also frowned, his expression shifting uncertainly, wondering if this person was just trying to show off and amuse him.

But since the other party had already spoken, he had no reason to refuse, so he looked at his underling and nodded to Chen Moxin.

The younger brother stepped forward and showed Chen Moxin the payment information on his phone screen.

Chen Moxin opened her mobile banking app, performed a few operations, and quickly said, "Okay, the transfer is complete."

"Ding-dong—You have a new message."

The younger brother stared blankly at the payment notification on his phone, then quickly ran to Luo Fei's side to show him the information.

Even Qian Yan, who often handles large sums of money, came over to take a look and then couldn't help but sized up Chen Moxin.

The shocking aspect of this matter is not the amount of money involved.

It's only a little over 20 million. International giants like the Twin Cities don't lack wealthy people who can come up with such a huge sum.

But these 20 million yuan were actually transferred to a personal account in one lump sum!

And the money arrives instantly!

This is too outrageous!

This indicates that the other party's bank card has extremely high fund limits and transaction processing priority, making them a very prestigious client of the bank.

"Damn, you're awesome."

Since the other party returned the money so readily, Luo Fei didn't even have a chance to cause trouble.

Although he was involved in organized crime, even organized crime has its own rules.

Given the current situation, he has absolutely no reason to make things difficult for Gu Qiaoqiao anymore.

Luo Fei snorted coldly, annoyed: "Give them the contract and tell them to get lost."

The younger brother took the contract out of the safe and slapped it into Chen Moxin's hand.

After confirming it, Chen Moxin handed it over to Gu Qiaoqiao.

Gu Qiaoqiao's hands trembled as she took the contract. Looking at the thing that had almost ruined her family, she couldn't help but shed tears. Her tearful eyes stared blankly at Chen Moxin's back, full of gratitude and longing.

The debt has been settled.

Completed.

For the rich second generation, this task is that simple.

However, Chen Moxin did not leave.

He grabbed Gu Qiaoqiao, who was about to leave, and continued to say to Luo Fei, "Give back the jade you took."

Luo Fei was puzzled after hearing this: "Jade? What jade?"

One of the henchmen seemed to remember something, whispered a few words in Luo Fei's ear, and then ran to another room to retrieve a jade pendant.

It was a piece of jade in the color of emerald, tied with a red string, and the words "Peace" were carved on it.

Chen Moxin could clearly feel that Gu Qiaoqiao tightened her grip on his small hand.

Without a doubt, this was the piece of jade that had caused her to break down at the time.

Luo Fei took the jade pendant from his underling and played with it, then chuckled briefly: "You mean this thing? I had someone check it out, this jade is totally fake."

"You guys are really pathetic. You treat a fake jade like a treasure and keep it in the cabinet. When they brought it back, I thought it was really valuable."

Qian Yan also chimed in with a affected tone, "It's fake, understand?"

Chen Moxin said, "Whether it's real or fake, just return it."

Although Luo Fei looks fierce, he is actually quite shrewd to be able to establish himself in such a gray area as the border.

At that moment, he immediately realized that although the jade itself was fake, it must be of great significance to Gu Qiaoqiao.

Otherwise, why not mention all the other things that were taken, but specifically ask for this piece of jade?

Luo Fei's eyes darted around as he played with the jade in his hand, a slightly provocative smile on his face. "Hehe, this jade was taken by us as a penalty for that girl not paying back her money on time. Now it's ours."

"You want it?" He grinned, his rotten, yellow teeth standing out even more under the light. "Then buy it from me."

"You little brat, you think you're rich? Bring me another 5000 million, and this jade is yours."

Upon hearing this, Gu Qiaoqiao gripped Chen Moxin's hand even tighter and quickly dissuaded him, saying, "Forget it, Xiao Chen, I don't want this jade anymore, let's go."

Although Gu Qiaoqiao had a breakdown that afternoon because of the jade pendant, it was because she had suppressed too many emotions at the time. The loss of the jade pendant was just the last straw that broke her back.

She cherishes the jade pendant her parents gave her, but it is ultimately just an external possession.

The person who gives the gift is more important than the gift itself.

It would be best to get it back, but it's not a big deal if we can't.

Not to mention that the other party is asking for such an exorbitant price, Gu Qiaoqiao would never let Chen Moxin be such a sucker.

Chen Moxin didn't say anything at this moment, but just looked at Luo Fei expressionlessly.

Luo Fei seemed to enjoy the feeling of bullying others, glaring at them and mocking, "What are you looking at? Huh? You're rich, aren't you? If you're so rich, why don't you take it out and let us see? Huh? Can't afford it? If you can't afford it, get lost!"

Gu Qiaoqiao sensed that the atmosphere was getting tense and was afraid that Chen Moxin would have a conflict with the other party, so she hurriedly lowered her voice and said to him, "It's almost time for me to go out, let's go back quickly."

Chen Moxin's eyes swept over everyone, taking in each person's face.

In the end, he said nothing and led Gu Qiaoqiao outside.

Luo Fei and the others burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, this idiot is hilarious!"

"So what if you have a little money? I thought you were something special, you stupid Xinshi dog."

"They act all high and mighty, so arrogant. If they're so great, why don't they just kill us?"

"Please, please come and do it to us already! Our skin is so itchy!"

Chen Moxin ignored the mockery from behind and left with Gu Qiaoqiao.

The two returned to the management bureau at the perfect time. After Chen Moxin finished the relevant procedures, she sent Gu Qiaoqiao back to the shelter area.

Before saying goodbye, Gu Qiaoqiao bowed deeply to Chen Moxin. Although she had cried several times today, this little crybaby seemed to have an endless supply of tears, and she shed tears again at this moment.

However, compared to the sadness and pain she felt during her previous tears, this time she shed tears of gratitude.

"Xiao Chen, although I've said it several times today, I still want to say thank you, thank you so much."

Chen Moxin wiped away her tears with her sleeve and smiled gently, "Everything's been resolved, don't cry anymore, go back and get some rest."

Gu Qiaoqiao nodded, and before leaving, she looked back at Chen Moxin with some worry and comforted her gently, "Don't take what happened with Luo Fei and the others to heart, and don't think about it anymore."

"Those people are completely unreasonable. Don't get entangled with them. There's no point in arguing with these thugs."

Chen Moxin smiled brightly and cheerfully: "Don't worry, I have a very good temper and I never hold grudges."

"That's good. See you tomorrow, Xiao Chen." Gu Qiaoqiao waved goodbye to Chen Moxin.

Chen Mo watched Gu Qiaoqiao leave, then walked out of the Administration Bureau alone.

The night was as thick as spilled ink, and the wind howled fiercely, swirling and fluttering the dead leaves of the roadside trees in the empty alley.

Chen Moxin raised her head, her amber eyes gazing at the deathly night.

"A dark and windy night is the perfect time for murder and arson."

He twisted his neck from side to side, and his bones made a dull, menacing cracking sound.

"I'm craving to eat."

...

"Wow - wow -"

The sound of shuffling tiles echoed continuously on the greasy mahjong table, which was covered in cigarette ash.

Luo Fei and the others, with cigarettes dangling from their lips, kept grabbing dominoes and placing them in front of them with a clatter, then pushing them into a row and pulling them up to stand them up.

That's why people say the world of martial arts is all about interpersonal relationships and social skills.

Previously, when Luo Fei was in a good mood, Qian Yan played recklessly and won whenever he was supposed to.
