Dong Jian dragged his limping leg and stood up.
Although he was dressed respectably now, the smile on his face was truly terrifying.
His ex-girlfriend stared at him in horror, her voice trembling.
“What do you want? Dong Jian, didn’t I already apologize to you? Don’t hurt me, please! I have parents above and a child below. I’ll give you as much money as you want, I’ll agree to anything you ask, please don’t hurt us!”
Dong Jian walked up to her, a look of sarcasm on his face.
“Give me money? Agree to anything? Fine, then give me all your money, your house, your car, everything.”
His ex-girlfriend was even more frightened. “I, I’m just a woman. Everything belongs to him. You know I have nothing…”
“Then you damn well promised me?”
His ex-girlfriend could only look at her husband. “Say something! Beg him, beg him not to hurt us!”
The man looked at Dong Jian with anger and defiantly cursed.
“You bastard, what do you need so much stuff for when people are about to die? Do you think you can kill me?”
“Come if you dare! If you kill me, you won’t escape either! What can you do even if I’m dead? Will your leg get better? Will cancer be cured? Stop joking!”
Dong Jian laughed miserably.
Yes, his life was already ruined to this extent. What good would killing them do?
He originally wanted to get back what his ex-girlfriend owed him, but seeing her trembling in fear, he only felt disgusted.
Even he, a nobody, felt disgusted. Her existence was meaningless.
So he changed his mind, stepped forward, and fiercely began to tear her clothes.
Amidst her continuous screams of terror and her husband’s angry curses, he ripped her to shreds.
Then he poured the unfinished food from the table onto her head and body.
“You’re scared too? You’re afraid of ruining your lives? Hahaha, I really like seeing you like this now.”
He picked up his phone and started recording them.
“Beg me, quickly, sincerely, beg me, and I’ll spare you. Otherwise, there will be worse to come.”
His ex-girlfriend was terrified, babbling apologies incoherently, looking as pathetic as possible.
Finally, Dong Jian finished recording several videos, stood in front of them, and played them on repeat, feeling an unprecedented sense of satisfaction.
“Get lost. If you dare to report this, I’ll go down in flames and post these online.”
“We’ll settle this debt for debt, and consider ourselves even. As long as you don’t cause any more trouble, our feud ends here.”
He and Zeng Huihua dragged the two of them downstairs with great effort, shoved them into the car, tore their clothes further, and pushed them onto the road.
On the way back, Dong Jian, with the demeanor of a dead pig unafraid of boiling water, asked Zhang Hui if she was afraid of retaliation.
Zeng Hui said, “These people consider themselves superior to us and care about their reputation, so they probably won’t retaliate.”
“Even if they do, after coming this far, do you think I’d be afraid? Stop talking nonsense.”
The two returned home content, their minds at ease. After resting for a few hours and nothing happening, they put the matter behind them.
Time came to past two in the afternoon. Dong Jian had gotten his revenge, felt relieved, and asked himself what he could do for Zeng Hui.
Zeng Hui threw the documents she had prepared in front of him.
“This woman, find her and ruin her. That’s all I want.”
Ge'er planned to announce her relationship with Shang Jincheng to her family and invited everyone for dinner that evening at the same restaurant.
However, she had work and no time to try on her dress, so she asked Tiantian to prepare it for her.
Tiantian was both surprised and amused to learn that she was going to announce her relationship.
She was surprised that Ge'er had such patience; if she hadn’t announced her own relationship with Chen Dongyang, Ge'er probably wouldn’t have said anything.
She found it amusing that Ge'er still wouldn’t confess to her in advance, wanting to wait until the evening to reveal the surprise, calling her childish.
As she had been relatively free lately, many clothes in her wardrobe had gone unused. Tiantian picked out the prettiest one and delivered it to her.
Coincidentally, Shang Jincheng was returning home to get something, and they entered the house one after another.
Tiantian was quite surprised to see Shang Jincheng at Ge'er’s house.
They had known each other for many years. Although Shang Jincheng often appeared in front of them, he wasn’t Ge'er’s type, and she often teased him.
How did their relationship suddenly become so close?
“Why are you here?”
Ge'er had instructed Shang Jincheng beforehand not to reveal anything.
Shang Jincheng found it awkward to explain. He smiled and brushed off Tiantian, saying he had left something there and had come to retrieve it.
“How could your things be left at her house?”
Shang Jincheng replied, “I came over to hang out and forgot to take it when I left. What, as a friend, can’t I drop by her place?”
Who was Tiantian? How could she be fooled by such a flimsy lie?
She sized him up with a gossipy look. “You’re hiding something from me. Don’t tell me the person you’re announcing tonight is you?”
“I heard she’s dating, so I screened everyone in the circle, but I never expected it to be you. Well done, Shang Jincheng, you’re going to be my brother-in-law, you’ve got some skills!”
Shang Jincheng adamantly denied it. “You can eat whatever you want, but you can’t say whatever you want. Your sister hasn’t admitted it, so why are you making wild guesses? Don’t speculate.”
Tiantian was amused by him. “You two are really something. You’re still hiding it from me at this stage. If you have the guts, don’t come back to bite you. Don’t come to our family gathering tonight.”
Shang Jincheng smiled without speaking. Tiantian put the dress away for Ge'er and prepared to leave.
“Alright, I’ve said what I needed to say, and I’m leaving. Are you waiting for her to come back here, or are you leaving with me?”
Shang Jincheng continued his act, his surprise well-concealed. “Of course, I’m leaving with you. The host isn’t home, so what am I supposed to do alone?”
After saying that, he left with Tiantian.
They had both driven their own cars. When they reached the underground parking lot, Shang Jincheng asked Tiantian if she needed a ride.
Tiantian asked, “Aren’t you in a hurry to get back to work?”
He wasn’t in a hurry at all.
He was preparing for the evening’s gathering. He was about to become a son-in-law of the Zhan family, so he didn’t mind missing half a day of work.
To be honest, Shang Jincheng was quite anxious. He had no idea how to please Ge'er’s two sisters-in-law, nephews, and nieces.
He had originally planned to ask his sister, but now that he had met Tiantian, there was no one more suitable. He might as well ask her.
“Stop beating around the bush, get in the car. I’ll give you a ride, and we haven’t seen each other in a while, so we can chat.”
Tiantian knew he had something to tell her, yet he was still pretending.
She didn’t refuse and got into his car.
Shang Jincheng made small talk, indirectly inquiring about what gifts ladies liked nowadays and how to please children in the family.
It was obvious that he was the surprise male guest for tonight.
Since he and Ge'er had gone to such lengths to plan this, Tiantian played along, not exposing him, and answered all his questions.
