Chapter 599: Chapter 599: Easy for You to Say

No follow-up capital and still have to repay the original investment?

The old lady’s blood pressure shot up suddenly, her vision blurred, and if it were not for her grandson Luo Xuanran’s support, she would have fainted.

Chen Guihua’s face turned ashen. Ever since she became entangled with Tao Pinggui, the billionaire tycoon, she had been dripping with gold and silver, frequenting various high-end beauty salons, buying designer clothes, and spending tens of thousands a day at the least.

Originally, Tao Pinggui gave his daughter, Luo Zitong, a card with ten million on it. His daughter hadn’t bought much, but she herself had already spent almost three million.

Now, the other party talked about withdrawing their investment, asking the Luo Family to come up with the money to repay the debt. Where could she possibly find such money?

Recalling the recent bankruptcy of the Luo Family, when they fell so low that they didn’t even have money for noodles, she was gripped by fear.

She hurriedly tugged at her daughter’s clothes, her teeth chattering, "Zi Tong, please talk to Chairman Tao, see if out of consideration for you, he could refrain from demanding money from us."

Seeing Tao Pinggui really intending to leave, Luo Zitong indeed panicked. She hurriedly forced a smile, her arms entwining around the other person’s arm, "Pinggui, are you just joking with me?"

"Get lost!"

Tao Pinggui shouted coldly, shaking off her arms, and spoke with an icy tone, "Can’t you understand human speech?"

"Considering the relationship we once had, I’ll give you one week to come up with the money. There won’t be any trouble if you pay me back 550 million within a week, but if you can’t come up with the money in a week! Your whole family can go beg!"

million?

The old lady’s eyes were about to pop out with blood. Where could she find such an amount of money?

She had been hoping that Tao Pinggui would increase his investment and help Luo’s Group get back on its feet, but now he was not only leaving at this critical time, but also demanding the repayment of his initial investment. How could she possibly repay it?

In that moment, the old lady was overwhelmed with tears and pleaded desperately, "Chairman Tao, you can’t do this!"

"Our Zi Tong was pure when she followed you, you can’t just wipe your hands clean and leave!"

Luo Yuantu also spoke up, "Chairman Tao, however you look at it, Zi Tong has been with you for a long time, and our Luo Family has always been subservient to you. Out of old friendship and everything we’ve been through, please don’t completely abandon us."

"We are willing to let go of Luo’s Group. Just let us keep tens of millions to live on, okay?"

Luo Yuantu was aware of the Tao Family’s power, and now he merely wanted the other side not to be too cold-hearted and leave them some money.

Dammit! If it weren’t for you guys, would I have incurred the wrath of Mo Han, this curse?

Tao Pinggui snorted coldly in his heart and said with an icy tone, "I have said what needed to be said, one week, 550 million!"

"Tao Wu, let’s go!"

"Yes!"

Tao Wu nodded and then helped Tao Pinggui out.

As the old lady watched their figures getting farther away, she could no longer bear it, her head tilted, and she fainted on the spot.

"It’s over! It’s all over..."

Chen Guihua collapsed on the ground, staring blankly at the ceiling.

Sitting in the wheelchair, Luo Yuantu sighed deeply, looking at his daughter as if wanting to say something, but then held back.

"Wah..."

Luo Zitong burst into tears, covering her face with her hands, and ran upstairs.

...

When Tao Pinggui returned to the Starlight Villa No. 3, his older brother, Tao Wenqiang, and his nephew, Tao Donglai, had already returned.

Both of them had joyful expressions on their faces as though something good had happened.

"Eh, Pinggui, what happened to your leg? Is it better?"

Seeing that Tao Pinggui didn’t need a wheelchair but was using a cane instead, Tao Wenqiang asked in confusion.

"I just went to the Rejuvenation Clinic to see an old traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. He gave me a few acupuncture needles, and I can barely stand up now."

Tao Pinggui replied indifferently, "Big brother, how did it go with Chairman Park?"

Rejuvenation Clinic? Isn’t that Gui Nongsang’s place?

Tao Wenqiang was instantly unsettled, his brow furrowed, and he spoke in a deep voice, "You just went to see Gui Nongsang for treatment?"

Tao Pinggui shrugged, "Yes!"

"Gui Nongsang’s medical skills are indeed not bad; he’s the one who cured the ulceration down there for me."

"But the old man is a swindler; he downright took twenty billion from me!"

"What? Twenty billion?" Tao Donglai gasped, his tone containing some reproach, "Uncle, weren’t you a bit too reckless?"

"Twenty billion! That’s twenty billion we’re talking about! How long will it take us to earn that amount back!"

"Easy for you to say!"

Tao Pinggui looked at Tao Donglai coldly, his nose humming, "Of course, I know it’s twenty billion, but if I didn’t pay that money, they would have had to amputate! I would’ve been castrated!"

"Both Gui Nongsang and Professor Tony said that if it were any later, the bacteria would have spread throughout my body! By then, not twenty billion, but two hundred billion wouldn’t have saved my life!"

Seeing that his son and brother seemed about to argue again, Tao Wenqiang’s face darkened as he interrupted, "Enough, let’s stop this matter here."

"Twenty billion to save Pinggui’s life is already a bargain."

"Pinggui, is your illness really cured? You don’t need a second treatment, do you?"

"Thank you for your concern, big brother, but I’m not fully recovered yet."

Tao Pinggui stated truthfully, "The divine doctor said I still need to get a few more acupuncture sessions before my leg can fully recover."

"Is that so?"

Tao Wenqiang stroked his beard, pondered for a moment, and then made a phone call, "Tao Yi, do your best to spare Gui Nongsang’s life!"

"Big brother!"

Tao Pinggui was right beside him and immediately noticed something was amiss, "What did you just say? You’re going to make a move on the divine doctor?"

"It’s nothing, the divine doctor took something from Chairman Park, and I’ve asked Tao Yi to help retrieve it tonight."

Tao Wenqiang nodded, his expression grave, "Pinggui, you don’t need to ask. You’re my brother, and when the time is right, I’ll tell you..."
