Chapter 126: Chapter 126 Filled up the void of not having this species in our class
Jingjing and two burly men descended the stairs, front and back.
Fu Yanjie trailed behind them, dejected.
A moment before, in the rented room, he had been on the brink of…
Then two burly men suddenly barged in, claiming Jingjing as their sister.
They wouldn’t stand for Fu Yanjie perpetrating such a deed.
Jingjing had tried to mediate the situation from the sidelines.
In the end, Fu Yanjie wrote an IOU note.
If he paid them half a million, the matter would be laid to rest.
Otherwise, they would expose this incident to Fu Yanjie’s family and classmates.
His reputation would be destroyed.
The incident was not entirely Fu Yanjie’s fault.
The moment, he had entered the room, Jingjing had given suggestive hints.
Fu Yanjie couldn’t resist and then…
Jingjing even mentioned a few “don’ts” during the process.
Fu Yanjie mistook the “don’ts” for desires.
That was his defense, his excuse.
But then he was completely trapped and unable to articulate his explanations.
After all, it was indeed Fu Yanjie who had initiated the act.
Little did he know that they had secretly prepared a recording.
If Fu Yanjie didn’t admit, they would bring out that recording.
That would leave him speechless and without an argument.
Fu Yanjie acknowledged his fault and feared the destruction of his reputation.
Thus, he meekly signed.
He exited the building with a heavy heart.
Wondering how he would raise that sum of money.
He didn’t have much cash on hand now.
Unless he sold his top-notch computer, but even then, it might not be enough.
Maybe he could borrow a little from Jiang Xu.
While deep in thought, he had reached the ground floor of the building.
As he looked up, he found himself surrounded by a crowd.
Fu Yanjie was startled and didn’t recognize Jiang Xu immediately.
The two burly men, somewhat bewildered, tried to put on a smile.
“Please make way, we need to leave.”
But no one moved.
Everyone was staring at them with frosty eyes.
At this moment, the two burly men realized that these people were here for them.
They were apprehensive.
They quickly ran through all the misdeeds they had committed recently in their heads.
Even something as trivial as kicking a stray dog on the street was taken into consideration.
Yet they couldn’t figure out exactly why this was happening.
Jingjing also squeezed out a smile: “Excuse me, have we offended any of you?”
Jiang Xu stepped forward.
Fu Yanjie’s pupils dilated in surprise, he didn’t understand why Jiang Xu was there.
Jiang Xu
The realization struck him like a lightning bolt. “You bold-faced guts, trying to scam my brother?”
Upon hearing this, the faces of Jingjing and the other two drastically changed.
Fu Yanjie stated, “You’ve got it wrong, they didn’t trick me.”
“Yes, yes, it was all a misunderstanding.” Jingjing and the others were nodding vigorously.
Jiang Xu rolled his eyes at them.
Fu Yanjie had clearly been bamboozled.
He coldly said, “What happened inside just now? Tell me everything exactly as it happened.”
Fu Yanjie’s gaze flickered, “Nothing much.”
Jiang Xu became furious, “You better tell the truth.
Otherwise, I will call your father right now and let him handle this.”
Fu Yanjie was scared, “Please don’t! Don’t tell my father.
He will break my legs if he hears about this. I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you…”
Thus, Fu Yanjie anxiously started to recount the whole incident exactly as it happened.
Jiang Xu laughed bitterly,
Looking at Jingjing and the other two, “You are ruthless, trying to con half a million out of my brother in one shot.
I want to ask you three, do your lives add up to that amount?”
When dealing with these people, reasoning is useless.
The use of force is the most straightforward and brutal method.
“Brother, no, boss, this was all a misunderstanding.”
“It was our mistake, please give us another chance.”
Jiang Xu said, “Bring out the IOU.”
How could they dare to utter a word of refusal?
They were thoroughly terrified by the imposing force of Jiang Xu, who could summon hundreds of people.
They thought they had offended some gangster’s son or something of the sort.
But they were not entirely wrong in their assumption.
Fu Xinghan was a lot more intimidating than any gangster.
Fu Yanjie hesitated to speak.
Even in this situation, he still believed that Jingjing was innocent.
Looking at his naive expression, Jiang Xu couldn’t help feeling annoyed.
How could he, a wise and martial person (except for the Zhou Qingyue incident), have such a na?ve friend?
Jiang Xu casually waved, “Take these three to PCS.”
The three started howling in perverse, but Jiang Xu paid no attention.
As Fu Yanjie tried to say something, Jiang Xu shot him a look.
Fu Yanjie shut up obediently.
When they left PCS, it was already past nine o’clock that night.
Fu Yanjie left dejectedly.
Inside PCS, those three had confessed to all their criminal activities.
They had been repeat offenders.
Usually, they would only make a few rounds in one place before moving to another location.
Continuing with the same modus operandi.
Their usual targets were either such inexperienced yet wealthy individuals like Fu Yanjie.
Or rich, older individuals, and they succeeded every time.
Fu Yanjie looked up at the sky, “Am I a fool?”
Jiang Xu calmly replied, “Don’t put it that way.”
Fu Yanjie was somewhat moved; Jiang Xu was on his side.
However, in the next second, he sank into despair.
“You’re not just a fool; that would be an insult to the word fool.
You’re a super big idiot, filling the idiotic void in our class.”
Fu Yanjie angrily retorted, “Don’t you have any sympathy at all?”
Jiang Xu simply shook his head, “You don’t deserve it.”
Fu Yanjie seemed crestfallen and sulky.
After a while, he spoke again, “I feel like a failure.
I like Sister Xiaoyuan, she doesn’t like me back.
I liked Jingjing, but she turned out to be a scammer.”
Jiang Xu patted his shoulder, “We all do foolish things when we’re young. Just be sure not to repeat them. I’m hungry now, treat me to a meal.”
Fu Yanjie screamed, “You want me to treat you after I’ve just been conned out of so much money?”
Jiang Xu angrily retorted, “I helped you solve a crisis. Treating me to a meal is the least you can do.
Moreover, wasn’t the money you lost retrieved?”
Fu Yanjie shook his head, “No way, I don’t want to spend any money now.”
“Do you believe me if I call your father about this now?”
“By the way, are the people you brought to scare me sent by my father?”
“No, they are actors hired with a little money.”
“That’s so cool; I wish I could feel what it’s like to be a gang leader.”
“Ha, idiots are not qualified.”
“Jiang Xu, we’re no longer friends.”
The two continued to quibble as they walked.
After eating at a nearby restaurant, they each went home.
After this incident, Fu Yanjie should be a bit more vigilant.
Being duped now is better than being conned in university.
Unconsciously, it was already Friday.
In the afternoon, the bank put the loan into Jiang Xu’s account.
He immediately contacted Zhang Xiaohui.
His dream house was close at hand at last!
