In Mengyu's home.
Mengyu sat by the bedside in her bedroom, listening to her mother's advice.
Meanwhile, in the living room, Mengyu's father and Rong Tianlin were still discussing how Liu Zixuan was brutally beaten by Jin Nan!
"Brother, if Liu Zixuan gets dealt with by Jin Nan, let's take the opportunity to sort him out and make some money off of him," Rong Tianlin whispered with a laugh.
Mengyu's father grimaced, "Isn't that a bit ungrateful? After all, he went to help pay off my gambling debt!"
"Bro, your thinking is too narrow. He can pay off a gambling debt of over three million, what's a bit more money?" Rong Tianlin scoffed, "Later, you don't need to say anything; just watch how I handle it!"
Mengyu's father raised an eyebrow. He was starting to regret his actions, especially seeing his daughter so angry, which made him feel some guilt.
But what Rong Tianlin said also tempted him to set up Liu Zixuan, as the family indeed had no money left!
"What if Jin Nan didn't trouble Liu Zixuan?" Mengyu's father suddenly asked.
Rong Tianlin laughed upon hearing this, "How could that be? You know what kind of person Jin Nan is. Never mind that Liu Zixuan just hit that guy in charge, just those arrogant words of his are enough for Jin Nan to waste him! You know Jin Nan's methods!"
"Is that so? I think Jin Nan's methods might not be so impressive!"
At this moment, Liu Zixuan suddenly walked in from outside, a cigarette dangling from his lips, hands in pockets, looking exceptionally carefree!
He sat in front of them, waved a hand, "You guys continue talking, I'm listening!"
"You... you're okay?" Rong Tianlin was suddenly stunned; Liu Zixuan was perfectly fine, not even a footprint on his clothes! Calm and composed, as if nothing happened!
Liu Zixuan shrugged, chuckled teasingly, "Were you worried something might have happened to me?"
"I..." Rong Tianlin was momentarily speechless.
Then, Liu Zixuan looked at Mengyu's father, "According to Mengyu, I should call you uncle, but what you're doing now doesn't deserve that title."
"Liu..."
"Let me finish," Liu Zixuan interrupted Mengyu's father, smiling, "If you still have a shred of humanity, treat your daughter well. This time, I happened to be around to help Mengyu, but next time, if I'm not, you might end up bedridden for life!"
Though Mengyu's father was muddled in his actions, he wasn't stupid; Liu Zixuan's safe return proved his capability.
To return unscathed from the ruthless Jin Nan shows it's best not to offend such a person.
He nodded repeatedly, saying, "Yes, yes, yes, I'll definitely quit gambling from now on!"
"Brother, why are you chickening out?" Rong Tianlin was displeased upon hearing this.
"Not only him, but you also need to back down," Liu Zixuan leaned against the sofa's backrest, exhaling smoke and checking the time, murmuring, "Right about now, they should be here!"
"Who's coming?" Mengyu's father asked.
At that moment, several of Jin Nan's men walked in from the yard.
Liu Zixuan smiled slightly, seeing their demeanor, firmly believing Jin Nan wouldn't let Rong Tianlin off!
"What brings you gentlemen here..." Rong Tianlin stood up, taking out cigarettes to offer them, trying to cultivate camaraderie!
Unaware, the lead man punched Rong Tianlin in the face, leaving his mouth and nose bloody.
Rong Tianlin, bewildered, clutched his face, "What's this for?"
"Rong Tianlin, do you realize you almost got our Jin Nan to offend the notorious Lord Xuan? You nearly wrecked our entire disco!" the lead man scolded.
"Lord... Lord Xuan?" Rong Tianlin looked at Liu Zixuan.
"Enough talk, our Jin Nan wants to have a word with you," the lead man said, dragging Rong Tianlin outside.
Rong Tianlin shouted, "You can't do this to me, I gave Jin Nan some perks."
"Perks?" Mengyu's father, upon hearing this word, immediately realized, "Is it you who kept inciting them to chase us for debts?"
"Did you really think I considered you a brother? If it weren't for your daughter and Liu Zixuan, would my daughter have ended up in jail?" Rong Tianlin cursed.
"Damn it! I treated you like a brother, yet we conspired together to trap my daughter and Liu Zixuan!" Mengyu's father bitterly regretted his actions, feeling repentant to the core!
To think all the help rendered ended up aiding a traitor, and even personally harmed his daughter and Liu Zixuan!
"Old man Meng, our Jin Nan wanted me to tell you, stop gambling. Lord Xuan helped you once, but he won't help you a second time," the lead man said, then left with Rong Tianlin.
Once everyone left, Mengyu's father slumped onto the sofa, staring blankly into space, overwhelmed with despair.
Liu Zixuan grinned slightly but said nothing.
After a while, Mengyu and her mother came out.
After briefly questioning Liu Zixuan and learning the matters were resolved, Mengyu gratefully said, "I owe you a huge favor again! Without you, I wouldn't know how to get through this!"
Liu Zixuan smiled, "Since you know you owe me, then just pay it back. I particularly fancy beauties owing me."
"Tell me, how do I repay you!" Mengyu had come to terms now, realizing without Liu Zixuan, her father's life and their family would've been ruined. If the matter reached the media, her career might have ended!
Now, no matter what Liu Zixuan said, whatever he asked, she'd comply!
Liu Zixuan glanced at Mengyu's parents, then said, "It's simple, you'll be my woman from now on, and the debt of over three million will be my bride price!"
"What!"
Mengyu's parents immediately showed disapproval!
Their daughter was a big star; could she be bought for four million?
"Why the reluctance?" Liu Zixuan asked meaningfully.
"This... this is too abrupt!" Mengyu's father murmured; in his view, his daughter was so excellent, her future husband should be a super-rich man. Liu Zixuan wasn't what he imagined for his future son-in-law!
Liu Zixuan frowned at his words; "If you're unwilling, then fork out four million now. Pay here, and Mengyu's favor owed will be completely settled."
"I..." Mengyu's father flushed; forget four million, finding forty thousand was nearly impossible for them now!
