Chapter 98: Chapter 98 All Done

Xia Yujiang patted his forehead, he drank a bit too much last night.

He walked around each room, Zhu Xiangxiang was nowhere to be found.

She must have gone out to buy food.

Xia Yujiang thought happily, a woman like Zhu Xiangxiang was truly gentle like water. The one at home was a tiger even when she was being polite.

The 210 million he embezzled from the company had lost 150 million in the stock market, and he still had 60 million left on hand. He couldn’t stay at Longxia and had to find a way to leave the country.

He had borrowed 50 million from loan sharks, and with principal and interest, he had to repay 80 million, so the 60 million he had wasn’t enough.

Xia Yujiang planned to take Zhu Xiangxiang and leave together, 60 million would be more than enough for them to live luxuriously abroad.

"Yes, hurry up and book tickets, leave as soon as Xiangxiang returns."

Xia Yujiang picked up his phone to book the tickets. He knew that embezzling so much money from the company meant facing legal repercussions, but he was sure Xia Yanbing wouldn’t report it just yet, after all, he was his father.

He had to leave quickly, or he might not be able to go at all.

However, when he went to pay, the few words that popped up on his phone shocked him.

Insufficient balance?

How could this be, he had 60 million, how could he not afford a ticket worth a few thousand?

Xia Yujiang tried several times and got the same result each time: insufficient balance.

He was completely panicked, quickly checked his account, and was stunned to find not a single penny left.

"Where’s my money? Where did my money go?" Xia Yujiang roared.

Suddenly, he paused, vaguely remembering he drank too much yesterday, and Zhu Xiangxiang had asked for his card’s PIN. Did he tell her?

Could it be that Zhu Xiangxiang took all his money?

Xia Yujiang hurriedly called Zhu Xiangxiang, but her number was already disconnected.

"Impossible, this is impossible, Xiangxiang loves me so much, how could she steal my money?"

Frenzied, Xia Yujiang opened drawers and wardrobes—everything valuable that belonged to Zhu Xiangxiang was gone.

Xia Yujiang stared blankly, plopping down on the ground... it was over, all over, Zhu Xiangxiang had taken all his money.

"Fraudster, Zhu Xiangxiang, I will kill you, kill you..." Xia Yujiang howled like a wounded beast, roaring.

Knock knock...!

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Xia Yujiang paused, his eyes lit up, surely it was Zhu Xiangxiang playing a prank on him.

Xia Yujiang quickly ran over to open the door.

But when he saw the few burly men standing at the door, his face turned ashen, he panicked and tried to shut the door, but it was too late.

Two of the strong men picked him up like a chick and threw him to the ground.

A man in a black suit, wearing sunglasses, and with a gold chain around his neck, looked at Xia Yujiang with a smirk.

"Mr. Xia, you’ve been quite hard to find."

Xia Yujiang’s face turned pale as paper, stammering: "Boss He, I, I..."

"No rush, take your time, I have plenty of time." He Hong sat down on the sofa, crossing his legs, "Mr. Xia, it’s time to pay up. A billion shouldn’t be too much for you, right?"

Xia Yujiang trembled all over, "Didn’t we agree on 80 million?"

He Hong sneered, "You’re a businessman, and businessmen value honesty. We did say 80 million before, but look, several days have passed, and time is money. Asking a billion isn’t excessive."

Xia Yujiang shook like a sieve, "Boss He, could you give me a few more days?"

"Sure, but by then it would be two billion."

Cold sweat dripped down Xia Yujiang’s forehead, "Okay, two billion, I’ll pay two billion in a few days."

"Haha..." He Hong suddenly laughed, "Do I look like an idiot to you? With the shares of Xia Group you have, they are worth at most a billion. How can you pay two billion?"

He Hong’s eyes suddenly turned fierce, pulling out a dagger from his waist and stabbing it into the coffee table.

"Mr. Xia, in our line of work, we mean what we say. If you can’t pay today, we won’t make it difficult for you, but we will have to chop off one of your hands."

Xia Yujiang was nearly scared to death, kneeling on the ground, "Boss He, please give me some time, I promise I’ll repay the money, please trust me."

"Why should I trust you? A bare promise and words won’t convince me, don’t you think that’s ridiculous?" He Hong waved his hand, "Do it."

Two strong men grabbed Xia Yujiang, pressing his hand firmly on the coffee table.

"Boss He, spare me, spare me... I’ll definitely repay the money, I’m begging you to spare me..." Seeing He Hong pick up the dagger, Xia Yujiang was so scared he wet his pants there and then.

He Hong’s face was full of a cold smile, "Then repay the money."

"Can I use my shares to offset the debt?"

He Hong squinted his eyes and pondered for a moment, "Looking at your miserable face, it’s my bad luck, I’ll take your crappy shares."

He Hong waved his hand, "Let him go, call Lawyer Li to bring a share transfer agreement."

Half an hour later, a man in a suit with gold-rimmed glasses came in.

"Mr. He, here’s the share transfer agreement you wanted."

He Hong casually tossed it in front of Xia Yujiang, "Sign it."

Trembling, Xia Yujiang signed the paper. He Hong took a look, then stood up and walked over, patting Xia Yujiang on the shoulder, "Mr. Xia, pleasure doing business with you. Remember to come to us next time you want to borrow money."

"Let’s go!"

He Hong and his men left.

Xia Yujiang sat alone in his wet pants, eyes vacant, face ashen, as if he were an idiot.

Outside the complex, He Hong got into a Rolls-Royce.

"Mr. Zhang, here’s the stuff you wanted." He Hong handed over the share transfer agreement.

Zhang Wenhao opened it and looked it over, smiling, "You’ve done well, I’ll have your money transferred to your account."

"You’re too kind, Mr. Zhang. I’ll still rely on you in the future."

As a loan shark, he could only keep going if Zhang Wenhao supported him. One word from Zhang Wenhao and he’d be finished.

Zhang Wenhao waved his hand, and He Hong nodded and got out of the car obsequiously.

Zhang Wenhao took out his phone and called Qin Yi, respectfully saying, "Mr. Qin, the shares are acquired."

Qin Yi’s lips curled slightly; truly a good day.

"Thank you! Inform Shen Zhengwen to bring Xia Yujiang back to the Xia Family."

"Yes, I’ll handle it right away."

After hanging up, Qin Yi smiled, now Xia Group’s shares were all in his possession.

......

An hour later, Shen Zhengwen brought Xia Yujiang to the Xia Family.

Xia Yanbing returned upon receiving the news.

When Xia Yanbing learned that all of Xia Yujiang’s money was gone, and even the shares were mortgaged, he almost fainted on the spot.

Dong Jinsu, like a mad dog, rushed over and started hitting and kicking Xia Yujiang.

"Xia Yujiang, you old bastard, you cruel scoundrel..."

Xia Yujiang reeked with the stench of urine. Suddenly, he jumped up, seemingly provoked by Dong Jinsu, and slapped her to the ground.

Dong Jinsu clutched her face, bawling, rolling on the ground, cursing furiously, turning the house into chaos.
