Chapter 355 Are you sure?
Chapter 355 Are you sure?
The thugs were startled and immediately stopped in their tracks.
Turning my head again,
Two bodyguards escorted Lin Zhenggang as he walked in.
The thugs were a little panicked.
He greeted them loudly.
"Mr. Lin...Hello!"
Lin Wei turned around as well, her face showing displeasure, and said...
"Second Uncle, don't interfere."
"Let me teach this brat a lesson!"
"This kid is getting more and more arrogant and disdainful of everyone!"
Lin Zhenggang looked at Ma Junjie expressionlessly.
He glanced again at the blood-stained ground.
And there was Jiang Hao, motionless, clutching his still-bleeding arm.
Lin Zhenggang slowly furrowed his brows, his voice turning cold.
"Lin Wei, what's going on?"
Lin Wei's face showed disdain.
He snorted and said...
"Second Uncle, Jiang Hao has money but doesn't pay it back. He uses the money to gamble and loses it all."
"To punish him, I chopped off one of his hands, and then I was about to chop off his other hand when that brat Ma Junjie jumped out and stopped me."
"Since he wanted to save people, I asked Ma Junjie to pay off Jiang Hao's debts, but the kid was rude and said he wouldn't give a single penny."
"Second Uncle, don't you think he's arrogant and domineering, utterly disrespectful?"
Lin Wei became increasingly angry as she spoke.
The slight rise and fall of his chest,
It seems that she hates Ma Junjie so much that her teeth itch with hatred.
Lin Zhenggang had a basic understanding of the situation.
He nodded slightly and said...
"Alright, let me say something fair!"
"Lin Wei, you should stop here. Jiang Hao has learned his lesson. Leave him one hand alone."
Upon hearing this, Lin Wei expressed her dissatisfaction.
"Second Uncle, but Jiang Hao...?"
Before he could finish speaking,
Lin Zhenggang raised his hand to interrupt Lin Wei.
He said it in a tone that left no room for negotiation.
"Alright, listen to me, no need for further explanation!"
Lin Wei dared not speak out in anger, and sighed with resentment.
Lin Zhenggang then looked at Ma Junjie and said,
"Ah Jie, as for you, I think we should keep things separate."
"Paying back debts is a matter of course since ancient times."
"We can let Jiang Hao off this time, but what about next time? If he still can't pay back the money next time, then his other hand... I'm sorry, he won't be able to protect himself either."
"Ah Jie, you're a smart and reasonable person, you understand what I mean, right?"
Ma Junjie listened as he spoke.
He looked down at the ground.
The ground was already covered in blood.
At some point, Jiang Hao had already fainted.
Ma Junjie slowly raised his head and looked at Lin Zhenggang.
"Mr. Lin, I completely agree with what you said."
"I think it was right to cut off his hand, because I also think Jiang Hao deserved it and should be taught a lesson!"
Lin Zhenggang smiled and nodded repeatedly.
Ma Junjie continued,
"Mr. Lin, thank you for your magnanimity. As for the next time..."
Ma Junjie paused.
Looking down again at the unconscious Jiang Hao,
He gritted his teeth.
He raised his head firmly and said,
"As for the next time, you don't need to go to Jiang Hao again, just come to me directly."
"I'll help him pay off his debts!"
Everyone was startled.
Lin Wei's eyes widened in astonishment.
Although Lin Zhenggang's reaction was not strong, it was clear from his eyes that he was also quite surprised.
He asked, puzzled.
"Ah...Ah Jie, are you...are you sure?"
Ma Junjie blurted out,
A gentleman's word is as good as his bond!
"If you can't pay me back next time, I'll give you my life!"
Lin Zhenggang's eyes lit up.
He let out a breath of relief.
He shook his head and sighed.
"Ah Jie, after all these years in the world, this is the first time I've ever seen... such a 'foolish' person!"
"You... sigh!"
As he spoke, Lin Zhenggang hesitated, but his eyes shone brightly as he looked at Ma Junjie.
At this moment, Lin Wei burst into laughter.
The laughter was clearly mocking.
"Ma Junjie, you're really loyal!"
"However, you yourself are like a clay Bodhisattva crossing a river—barely able to save yourself. What qualifications do you have to help Jiang Hao?"
"Haha, I know, you're like a toad perched on a lotus leaf—a little too light."
"Fine, fine, you're just going to suffer for the sake of saving face."
"Jiang Hao owes me 300 million. I'll give you a week. I'll come back to collect the money in a week. If you don't have it, then..."
Ma Junjie didn't wait for Lin Wei to finish speaking.
He continued,
"If not, then I'll cut my own head off!"
Lin Wei was startled when she heard Ma Junjie's words.
Suddenly I started to stutter and panic.
"You...you..."
"Hmph, fine, then... then you can just wait to lose your head!"
"Second Uncle, let's go!"
Lin Zhenggang looked at Ma Junjie, who had a serious expression on his face.
His expression was complicated.
"Okay, then that's settled!"
"Goodbye, Ah-Jie!"
After saying that, Lin Zheng turned around and walked out the door with Lin Wei.
A group of underlings took one look,
He grabbed a stick and smashed it against the tables and chairs in the room, as if venting his anger.
They all stared coldly at Ma Junjie.
A mocking smile appeared on his face.
"Heh heh, kid, by the next time we meet, your head will probably be gone!"
"Let me look at you one more time, to remember how you look with your corpse intact, hahaha!"
Ma Junjie smiled and shook his head.
I can't be bothered with them.
He quickly pulled his phone out of his pocket.
Call emergency services.
A few minutes later, the crowd dispersed from the hall.
Ma Junjie lit a cigarette.
Amidst the flickering fireworks, I looked at Jiang Hao lying on the ground.
to be frank,
Jiang Hao is really unreliable.
Even if his hand is cut off this time
Ma Junjie was also unsure whether Jiang Hao had truly learned his lesson.
and,
From an outsider's perspective, I do seem a bit foolish.
After all, she and Jiang Hao didn't really have a deep relationship.
The relationship between the two was simply that of an employer and employee.
That's all.
Today, I blurted out that I would help Jiang Hao pay off his debts.
To be honest, it was a bit of an impulsive decision.
However, looking back, Ma Junjie doesn't regret it.
Because deep in his bones is a belief that one should repay even the smallest kindness with the greatest gratitude.
When I came to Dongguan, Jiang Hao appreciated me and gave me important responsibilities.
Pay yourself a high salary; respect yourself.
This is a small act of kindness, and that's enough!
As I thought about it,
The sound of an ambulance siren came from outside the door.
A moment later, medical staff in white coats rushed in carrying a stretcher.
Upon seeing Jiang Hao on the ground, they immediately began to perform a simple examination on him.
Just then, a few of the remaining employees at Blue Moon peeked out and came out.
They had been hiding inside all along.
Previously, they were afraid of the thugs that Lin Wei and her group brought.
They hid inside, too afraid to come out.
Now that they heard no more noise, they ran out.
"Captain Ma, is Manager Jiang... alright?"
Ma Junjie recognized him; the speaker was Xu Wei, Jiang Hao's secretary.
It is he who is now in full charge of managing the mess that is Blue Moon.
"Captain Ma, is he... is he going to die?" Xu Wei asked anxiously again.
Upon hearing this question, the other employees also became anxious.
"Yes, Captain Ma... Manager Jiang isn't dead, is he?"
Ma Junjie smiled and shook his head.
Thinking to myself,
Jiang Hao has many bad habits, but it seems he is quite popular with his employees.
Who knew that the next second,
Several employees then added,
"He can't die!"
"He still owes us several months' wages... If he dies, then we've worked for nothing!"
"Uh... okay!" Ma Junjie realized he was overthinking things.
Just then, the paramedics finished their examination and said,
"This person isn't dead, he's just passed out!"
"However, he has lost too much blood and needs immediate medical attention!"
"One or two people, come with us back to the hospital!"
The employees were overjoyed upon hearing this.
"Thank goodness you're not dead! Thank goodness you're not dead!"
Ma Junjie smiled and pointed at Xu Wei.
"Xu Wei, you go ahead with them!"
Xu Wei thought for a moment, then responded with an "Mm," and ran out with the doctor.
Jiang Hao was carried away, and soon the "beep beep beep" sound started again.
The employees gradually dispersed to get things and clean up.
Ma Junjie saw four or five employees, all sighing and lamenting.
But without saying a word, he started cleaning and tidying the tables and chairs on his own.
It was desolate and bleak.
Seeing this scene, Ma Junjie suddenly remembered when he first came to Blue Moon.
The place was brightly lit, bustling with noise, and incredibly lively.
Ma Junjie stared at the blurry figures of several employees.
Suddenly, a bold idea popped into my head.
"Yeah, damn it, let's go for something big!"
