Ephemeral clouds and works

Chapter 1187: Feeding a Dog with Kindness

    

hugged her tightly, holding her in her arms, pressing on the bleeding wound on her waist, tears streaming down her face. In her sixteen years of life, she had never experienced such a terrifying thing..."Can this work If things get out of hand, it won't be good."

Xing Dayong was still a little hesitant.

"What are you afraid of It's not like we're the ones who have to face them. When the time comes, you just have to show up and scare them away."

"Father isn't senile, this coincidence of me running into this... Don't let father and mother find out later, or we'll be the ones who lose face."

Xing Dayong glanced at his wife and said.

"What a coincidence! Our family needs to buy things for our small business, so we'll definitely go to the county town. It's only natural that we'll ask our parents where we can find good and cheap stuff.

"

He Cuicui rolled her eyes and said.

"Okay, I'll do that. I'll look for friends these two days."

Xing Dayong immediately said.

As Liàn Yī walked home from evening study, she turned the corner into her neighborhood alley and felt someone following behind. She didn't think much of it until she came face-to-face with another person blocking her way.

She had intended to go around, but the other party was specifically looking for her. How could she be allowed to leave They immediately surrounded her, one in front and one behind.

What do you want to do

Ripples pretended to be startled and asked.

"What we can do, of course, is to ask our little sister to lend us some money to spend."

The short, stout man said in a rambling way.

"I have no money, I'm just a poor student. Where would I get money"

Ripples hugged her own schoolbag and immediately started crying poor.

"Hey! You little rascal, not telling the truth! Your parents are running a small business, making quite a bit of money each day. Raising you so beautifully, there's no way you could be poor."

Another tall man spoke.

"That's because my parents are wealthy, not me."

The ripples lowered their eyes and spoke in a low voice.

This is because their business is doing well, someone has taken notice, but it's unclear whether it's just for their money or their small business.

"Alright, stop acting poor. If you have no money, go get some. Don't play tricks, your parents are old bones and can't take a beating."

The short, stout man immediately growled.

Ripples quickly glanced at the two people before speaking:

"Then you guys come back with me to get it!"

The two of them exchanged glances and nodded in agreement. They had already done their homework before this, finding out that the couple lived here with their daughter, renting a house. Their relationship with the neighbors was average, which is why they dared to come here and confront them.

Liàn Yī lowered her head and simply led the way ahead. The two of them followed Liàn Yī openly and honestly, not concealing themselves at all.

Ripples entered the courtyard first. After the two of them entered one after the other, she immediately closed the courtyard gate.

At this time, Xing's mother was in the house picking vegetables. Hearing the doorbell, she knew her daughter was back and immediately got up to prepare a warm meal for her. However, when she opened the door, she saw two strangers and immediately became alert, asking:

Who are you What are you doing at our house

Hearing Mrs. Xing's voice, Old Man Xing also came out with his smoking pipe. Seeing his daughter winking at him, he immediately grabbed his wife's hand and whispered:

Are you two here to see my old man

"Yes! Just spoke to your daughter. Lately, my brother and I are a little tight on cash and were hoping to borrow some money to tide us over."

The short and stout one spoke first, also glancing at Lianyi who was walking over slowly, the threat in his eyes very obvious.

Old Man Xing tightened his grip on his pipe as he knew his daughter must have been threatened by these two, otherwise she wouldn't have invited wolves into the house. But now there were only three of them at home, all elderly and weak, so it was unwise to confront them head-on. He immediately pulled his wife behind him and said politely:

"Two young brothers, borrowing money is easy to say, I hope you will be merciful and not hurt my daughter and old woman."

At this moment, Mother Xing was terrified. If it weren't for Old Man Xing pulling her, she would have been rooted to the spot and unable to move.

Seeing the old man was so accommodating, the two immediately said with a fake smile:

We only seek wealth, not harm.

Only that tall and thin man kept glancing at Lianyi, apparently with ulterior motives.

Old Man Xing was also worried about his daughter, but he had to keep these two bandits at bay first. Then, when they were distracted by the money, he could grab a weapon. Otherwise, if he fought them unarmed, he wouldn't stand a chance. As long as he held them off, his daughter could run and call for help.

Xing Laotou had a good plan, but as soon as he entered the room, Lian Yi slammed the door shut and punched the short fat man in the waist with a backhand. She then kicked the tall thin man's leg, breaking it clean off.

"Ouch!"

"Ah!"

After two short cries, the ripples reached both of them, delivering a punch to each of their stomachs and sending them crashing to the ground, curled up like shrimp.

Only then did the ripples turn back to the startled old couple, who gaped in disbelief and said:

"Father and mother, you don't have to worry, I can handle these two scoundrels."

Then, turning his head to the tall and thin man, he gave a sneer and stepped directly on the other man's ankle, asking:

"Who sent you to find me"

Ripple considers her family of three to be very low-key. Plus, with the incident involving the police last time, most of the local tough guys don't dare to bother them. After all, they really are willing to report to the police. Who would want to be watched by the police for no reason

"I said, I said!"

Before the lanky man could speak, the short, stout man spoke up.

"Bang!"

With a slap, Lian Yi struck the other person, saying domineeringly:

Has it got you talking

The short, chubby man covered his swollen face and immediately fell silent. He thought the other person was a little lamb, but turned out to be a tigress.

The lean man's face contorted for a moment, but the searing pain in his right foot told him he had kicked an iron plate. He could only grit his teeth and swallow his anger.

"I said, someone paid us brothers to make things difficult for you. They want your little business to fail and then work with him to put on a show."

"Since you guys are making it impossible for us to buy and sell, you should go up to the stall and cause a commotion. Why come and rob me"

His eyes narrowed, clearly not believing the other's words.

"I'm telling the truth, someone came to take over your business, but they didn't reach an agreement with you, so they can only resort to force. We brothers figured since you're doing small-time business, you must have some money, so we just want to borrow a little bit for our spending."

The gaunt man swallowed nervously and replied immediately.

Who is the other party

I don't know.

"You probably have an idea of what he looks like! Otherwise, how could you act with him"

Ripples are not easily fooled.

The lanky man, while reminiscing, described the appearance of the person in question. After finishing his account, he noticed that the expressions on the faces of the family of three across from him had become rather gloomy.

"I'm telling you the truth, this person wants to take over your business. They must have contacted you before, you should remember."

And the short, fat man on the side had already calmed down, slowly getting up, as if waiting for an opportunity to move. Lian Yi gave him a sideways kick to the temple, and he was knocked unconscious instantly.

The lanky man confirmed Ripples' ferocity once more. He opened his mouth to cry for help, but Ripples grabbed his neck. After a moment, he rolled his eyes and fainted.

"Old man, what sins did we commit in our lives to give birth to such a beast."n, taking away the blood jade bracelet."Ripple, I have a high-level mission here. Would you like to try it"The stone mortar asked a question."Is it difficult"If there's no difficulty, the millstone wo...
