Chapter 5 One Million Dollars
Chapter 5 One Million Dollars
Shihao Wang lay on the hood of the car, clutching at his chest and coughing incessantly.
At the same time, he kept thinking that the fact that he, Shihao Wang, a rich man in the Westplain City, had been beaten by a fool, which made him unable to accept it.
He waited for a moment before sitting up, and then shouted angrily, "You dare kick me, I'll kill you!"
However, when he stood up, he realized that Andy Wu had run away.
At 2:30 p.m., Changsheng Li had a drink with several officials. He was so drunk. He asked the driver to drive him back to his residence.
Changsheng Li lived in a three-story luxury villa in Westplain City, a place couldn't afford by ordinary people in Westplain City, but for the rich man in Jiangdong province, it was a temporary residence.
Coming to the villa yard, Changsheng Li said a few words to the driver, "I'll get some sleep first, there's a meeting at night, you wake me up at five.”
After saying that, Changsheng Li opened the door and walked inside.
Entering the hall, Changsheng Li’s heart suddenly fluttered, because he saw a man sitting on a sofa in the villa's hall.
"Who's sitting there?" Changsheng Li was momentarily drunk and shouted at him.
The man on the couch, slowly getting up, looked coldly at Changsheng Li .
This man, was none other than Andy Wu.
Changsheng Li rubbed his eyes in disbelief and said, "Are you the Third Master?"
Andy Wu slowly walked towards Changsheng Li and stood in front of him, sternly questioning, "I've been in Westplain City for three years, why didn't you ever look for me?"
Upon hearing this, Changsheng Li knelt down in front of Andy Wu.
He tensed his nerves and trembled, ''Third Master, I always thought you were dead. I don't come to the Westernplain very often, I really didn't know you were here!"
The richest man, a legend, in the Jiangdong province, who knelt down to Andy Wu. If this scene was seen by others, many people would be stunned.
However, Andy Wu seemed to have gotten used to people kneeling down to him. He looked down at Changsheng Li and said coldly, "I hope you understand that I can help you become the richest man, and I can also destroy everything you have."
Changsheng Li said in trepidation, "Of course I know, in my mind, the Third Master is a god, I dare not betray you!" It was true that Changsheng Li was in awe of Andy Wu.
Ten years ago, Changsheng Li was an unknown labor contractor. Andy later helped him, groomed him, and gave him a start-up capital to invest in real estate in Jiangdong province.
The reason why the Changsheng Group was able to grow rapidly and become a nationally renowned real estate group in a short period of time was that Andy Wu secretly assisted Changsheng Li.
Andy Wu, the third master of the Wu family, who was the best in business and no one could match him, was a genius.
Changsheng Li did have a great admiration for Andy Wu.
In fact, Andy trusted Changsheng Li too, which was why he groomed Changsheng Li that year to become an agent in real estate.
Only, he was poisoned in the Wu family three years ago. Andy Wu didn't know who poisoned him, so he had to become more cautious, and even his most trusted men, he kept testing them.
Through Changsheng Li's words and deeds, Wu was basically certain that he was still trustworthy. So, he said, "Get up!"
Changsheng Li immediately stood up. He had more than ten years of experience in running business,but when he saw Andy Wu he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. After a while, he said, ''Third Master, three years ago, I heard that you suddenly died. What the hell is going on here?"
Andy Wu said, "Three years ago, someone used my mother and poisoned me. By the time I woke up, I had lost my memory, and I had somehow made it to the Xia family in Westplain City. Guangyao Xia took me in and even betrothed his granddaughter to me. You help me investigate this Guangyao Xia.”
Andy Wu had already guessed what had happened to the Wu family three years ago. However, Andy Wu knew nothing about who saved him and why he appeared in Westplain City, so he needed to find out.
After listening to the words of Andy Wu and combined with the information he had received that year, Changsheng Li had already knew that the Wu family had suffered an unrest. He didn't ask Andy Wu in detail, only replied seriously, ''Okay, I'll investigate him. Third Master, may I ask if you will now take over the Changsheng Group personally?"
Changsheng Li knew that he was the secret weapon that Andy Wu had cultivated outside. If Andy Wu wanted to use him, he would try his best to help him.
Andy Wu waved his hand and said, "Not for now."
Changsheng Li nodded and said, "I see."
At half-past five in the evening, Andy Wu returned home.
As soon as he entered the door, Guilan Huang rushed towards Andy with a hanger and kept beating him, cursing: "Why are you beating people, why?”
Guilan Huang hit him with a hanger very hard. But it was like scratching an itch for Andy, who didn't care about the pain.
Jenny Xia immediately ran over to stop Guilan Huang.
Guilan Huang said defiantly, "Don't stop me, I have to kill this fool today."
"You also said that he was a fool, is there any point in hitting him? Stop beating him, I'll ask him why."Jenny Xia said.
Guilan Huang said coldly, "You must divorce him!" Then she turned to the kitchen.
Jenny looked at Andy Wu and said in disappointment, "Why did you hit Shihao Wang ?"
Andy answered, "He's in my way." Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Jenny smiled wryly and asked rhetorically, "Just because he's in your way, you hit him?"
"I didn't use all my strength." said Andy frankly. He simply disliked Shihao Wang, so he wanted to kick his ass. Still, he hit him with a grain of salt, otherwise Shihao Wang would have been died.
Jenny yelled angrily, "How do you prove that?" After saying this, Jenny was still angry. She continued, "I am really too disappointed in you. Though you are not smart, at least you would not harm anyone. But now you hit someone for a stupid reason. You've got me scared now, and I'm afraid you're going to hit me when you get mad."
Andy said, "I won't hit you, not for the rest of my life!" His words, however, touched Jenny's heart.
Jenny had been so angry that she had even made up her mind secretly to divorce Andy and get rid of this terrible fool once and for all.
But all of a sudden, Andy’s words made Jenny give up on divorcing him.
After a long time, Jenny said to Andy, "Don’t lie to me and don't cause any trouble!" After said that ,she turned and went back to her bedroom.
At noon the next day, Guilan Huang made the meal, and Andy Wu came out to eat lunch on time. Today's Guilan Huang was absent-minded, and quite unusual.
A short while later, Jenny returned from the company. As soon as she arrived home, she shouted angrily at Guilan Huang, "Mom, what have you done? why did you mortgage our house to the casino?"
"You have already knew that?" Guilan Huang answered.
Jenny said angrily, "People come to my company asking me for money, can I not know?"
Guilan Huang sighed and said, "You know that I like to gamble." Guilan Huang had been out of work since very early, and usually played cards to kiss the time.
Jenny said, "You used to play poker and the stakes were not high. Why did you lose the house this time?"
Guilan Huang explained, "Yesterday my son-in-law gave me a famous watch. When I play cards at night, I wear it out to show off. The poker players thought I was rich and upped the ante. I didn't control myself and just played with them. Then I lost too much money so I took out a mortgage on the house. I thought I could win it all back, and who knew it was all lost.” Guilan Huang explained with a guilty look on her face.
With a silly husband and such a mom, Jenny almost freaked out and was about to cry. She rushed towards Guilan Huang and shouted angrily, ''Don't you know what's going on in our family? How could you do that? The casino people said that if they can't get a million dollars to pay the debt today, they are going to kick us out of our house. Do you want us to sleep on the street?"
Guilan Huang acted she didn’t care and said, "All right, all right, now it’s not the time to scold me. The most important thing now is to give the money back to the casino. Look for Shihao, he's rich. The money is nothing to him."
Jenny was really getting angry, she hissed back, ''What the hell were you thinking? We are not friends, so how can I borrow so much money from him?"
"Anyway, you and Shihao are going to get married sooner or later, so this money can be used as the bride price." Guilan Huang said.
Before Jenny could say anything, suddenly, Andy stood up and said seriously, "Don't look for him, I have money."
Jenny was furious with her mother. Jenny’s words at the moment, no doubt added fuel to the fire. Jenny became even more angry as she rushed at Andy, ''How come you have money? My mother owes a million dollars, listen carefully, it's a million dollars, not a hundred dollars, can you get it?"
"Yes!" When Andy finished his words, he turned around and left.
