Chapter 353 It's only natural
Carina Lau was taken aback.
It's probably been a long time since I've seen Liu Xiong react so strongly to a name.
She sensed something was amiss.
asked,
"Dad, what's wrong?"
"Judging from your reaction, do you know that person?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Bingbing also became interested.
Curious, he pressed on with the question.
"Grandpa, do you really know him? Who is that person?"
"Why would he give a car to Brother Jie?"
Liu Xiong didn't rush to answer, and instead stared directly at Ma Junjie.
An expression of disbelief,
Shake your head.
"Ah Jie, the car... was it really a gift from Lin Zhenggang?"
"Lin Zhenggang... he is..."
"How could you...?"
Upon hearing Liu Xiong's words, Ma Junjie knew that he was holding back.
Lin Zhenggang's more specific identity was not revealed.
Liu Xiong probably thought Liu Bingbing would be worried.
Ma Junjie's eyes showed gratitude, and he quickly interrupted Liu Xiong.
He said,
"Grandpa, let's go upstairs and sit inside!"
"A bunch of us just standing outside, people will think something's wrong with us!"
Carina Lau also realized that it wasn't appropriate for a group of people to be standing downstairs.
He continued,
"Yes, everyone, come upstairs and sit down to chat."
Ma Junjie gave an awkward smile and looked at Liu Xiong.
The intention was to get Liu Xiong moving and go upstairs together.
Liu Xiong stared silently at Ma Junjie, a look of doubt in his eyes.
After a while,
He shook his head, turned his head to Zhang Mei, and said...
"Xiao Zhang, give them the things. We're not going up. Let's go back first."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Mei immediately responded.
"Yes, sir!"
Zhang Mei walked forward with a smile and handed the bag she was carrying to Ma Junjie.
"Mr. Ma, these are two bottles of aged French red wine, which the master specially brought for you."
Upon hearing this, Ma Junjie waved his hands repeatedly.
Looking at Liu Xiong,
"Grandpa, I can't accept this wine, I..."
Liu Xiong raised his hand to interrupt Ma Junjie.
"Take it, we're leaving!"
Taking advantage of Ma Junjie's moment of distraction, Zhang Mei
He stuffed the tote bag into Ma Junjie's hands.
He then turned around and quickly walked to Liu Xiong's side.
"Sir, I'll go get the car!"
finished,
"Thump thump thump," she stomped her high heels, wiggled her shapely hips, and ran quickly ahead.
"Grandpa, wait a minute..." Ma Junjie called from behind.
Liu Xiong didn't turn around, but simply raised one hand above his shoulder.
He shook his head, indicating that Ma Junjie didn't need to say anything more.
Ma Junjie abruptly stopped.
At this moment, Liu Bingbing walked up and tugged at Ma Junjie's arm.
"Brother Jie, just keep it."
"I'll tell you a secret, my grandfather has a wine cellar, and he has plenty of good wine."
Carina Lau listened from the side, shaking her head repeatedly.
Finally, he simply turned around and went upstairs by himself.
Seeing that the two had left, Ma Junjie felt relieved that he had escaped unharmed.
When Liu Bingbing asked again who Lin Zhenggang was...
Ma Junjie pretended not to hear and went upstairs with the wine.
In the next few days,
Ma Junjie took some time to register the new car.
After getting the license plates and vehicle registration, Ma Junjie finally felt that the car truly belonged to him.
When he was driving alone on the road,
For some inexplicable reason, Lin Wei's image suddenly appeared in Ma Junjie's mind.
I had joked with Lin Wei before,
He said if he won the fight, he would buy a car with the prize money.
I'll definitely take Lin Wei for a drive after I buy the car.
Although he said those words on purpose to provoke Lin Wei,
But now I suddenly remember...
The corners of his mouth still unconsciously turned up, and a smile involuntarily appeared.
Besides,
in a sense,
This new car was made possible thanks to the help of Lin Wei's second uncle, Lin Zhenggang.
Thinking about it this way
Taking Lin Wei for a drive seemed perfectly reasonable and justifiable.
Ma Junjie turned his head and looked at the empty passenger seat.
Not to mention,
I haven't seen Lin Wei for a while.
Ma Junjie does seem to want to see her.
If Lin Wei saw her new car
Ma Junjie could imagine that it would absolutely infuriate her.
Thinking of this, Ma Junjie slowly smiled.
is smiling,
Suddenly, a piercing cell phone ringtone sounded.
Ma Junjie casually picked up his phone.
I answered the call without even looking at it.
Once connected,
A hurried voice suddenly came from inside.
"Ah Jie, brother, where are you?"
"Brother...come quick...come quick..."
His voice was choked with emotion and trembled slightly.
Ma Junjie recognized the voice; it belonged to Jiang Hao.
Upon hearing Jiang Hao's voice,
Ma Junjie's heart involuntarily jumped up.
How to put it...
Jiang Hao is a troublemaker.
In addition, Jiang Hao's tone of voice is now somewhat strange.
Ma Junjie's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself that something bad must have happened again.
He was just about to ask a question
Suddenly, a woman's voice came from the other side.
"Ma Junjie, long time no see!"
Upon hearing this, Ma Junjie
My heart skipped a beat.
Holy crap, speak of the devil and he appears!
Isn't this Lin Wei?
Ma Junjie joked,
"Lin Wei, what's wrong? Are you missing me again?"
"Pah!" Lin Wei across from them spat out.
"Ma Junjie, you're just all talk!"
"I'm giving you 20 minutes. If you don't make it to Blue Moon by then, and you're even a minute late, I'll chop off one of your brother Hao's fingers!"
As soon as the words were spoken,
Then they heard Jiang Hao's pig-like screams.
"Ah Jie, hurry up and come!"
"They...they're serious..."
"Slap!" A crisp slapping sound came from the phone, and the call ended.
Ma Junjie exclaimed "Holy crap!" and gritted his teeth.
Suddenly make an emergency U-turn.
With a thud, the car shot off...
It only took about seventeen or eighteen minutes.
With a "creak",
The car braked suddenly and stopped in front of Blue Moon.
Ma Junjie hurriedly got out of the car and slammed the door shut with a loud "bang."
Without looking back, he ran into the Blue Moon KTV.
As soon as he rushed into the hall,
Ma Junjie looked ahead and immediately stopped.
Shout it out.
"Stop! Stop!"
Eight or nine burly men in black turned their heads.
Countless eyes were fixed on Ma Junjie.
Jiang Hao, who was being pressed down on the coffee table, also struggled to lift his head and turn it to look at Ma Junjie.
It was as if I had suddenly seen a savior.
He started shouting and yelling.
"Ah, ah!"
"Help! Ah Jie, come save me!"
Ma Junjie hadn't spoken yet.
A cold laugh rang out.
Lin Wei walked out of the crowd.
Holding his phone, he glanced at it and smiled.
"Ma Junjie, you're pretty fast!"
"19.15 seconds, right on time!"
After speaking, Lin Wei waved to the two burly men who were holding Jiang Hao down.
"Let him go!"
Upon hearing this, the two burly men released Jiang Hao's arms.
He glared at her and slowly walked away.
Jiang Hao, still shaken, quickly ran behind Ma Junjie to hide.
"Ah Jie, help!"
Ma Junjie glanced at Jiang Hao and wondered why he had suddenly become so cowardly.
At this moment, Lin Wei suddenly spoke up.
"Jiang Hao, you think you'll get away with it by hiding behind Ma Junjie?"
"Paying back debts is a matter of course; you can't escape it."
Upon hearing this, Ma Junjie roughly understood why Lin Wei had come.
They're just asking for money.
But to be honest
Because Jiang Hao did indeed owe Lin Wei money.
Ma Junjie isn't an unreasonable person.
Paying back debts is indeed a matter of course.
Ma Junjie coughed twice and turned to look at Jiang Hao.
"Brother Hao, hiding behind me isn't a solution."
"I won the fight last time, which saved you 200 million. That means you only owe Lin Wei 300 million now."
"Here's what we'll do. You made 180 million last time. Take it all out and pay back part of it first."
"Lin Wei, is this okay?"
Lin Wei's lips twitched, appearing somewhat unwilling.
But perhaps they felt that paying it back was better than not paying it back at all.
Lin Wei said impatiently,
"Alright, alright!"
"Pay me back 180 million first, and I'll give you the rest in 3 more days."
"Jiang Hao, here's the money, cash or bank transfer?"
Jiang Hao was stunned.
Suddenly asked a question, I stuttered and couldn't say anything.
"Huh!" Ma Junjie was puzzled and patted Jiang Hao on the shoulder.
"Brother Hao, don't be stingy with money. You still have to spend what you need to spend."
"How wonderful it will be to pay off all your debts and feel completely relaxed!"
"Hurry up and hand over the money. You told me you knew I had 180 million!"
As Jiang Hao listened, his face grew darker and darker.
His eyes darted around, and he remained silent.
Ma Junjie noticed something was wrong and patted Jiang Hao's arm forcefully.
"Brother Hao, what exactly do you mean?"
"If you don't give me the money now, and you're still reluctant to part with it, then... then I'm leaving, I'm done with you!"
"No!" Jiang Hao stopped Ma Junjie.
He let out a heavy sigh.
"Ah Jie, I... I don't have a single penny left!"
