Suddenly, just as Su Han was planning to casually send Chen Yu away and then go upstairs to have a good chat with the Chen sisters, Chen Yu's phone rang!
"Ah... it's Lang Bao and the others!" Looking flustered, Chen Yu hesitated, unsure whether to answer the call.
Seeing this, Su Han immediately asked, "Chen Yu, why are you speechless? The phone's ringing, aren't you going to answer it?" Chen Yu stammered, unable to speak.
This made Su Han find it strange. Chen Yu wasn't usually like this. If he was afraid to answer the phone, it meant he was in trouble! Without further ado, Su Han snatched the phone.
"Hello..." As soon as he picked up, Su Han heard a burst of arrogant laughter from the other end: "Hahaha, Chen Yu, listen to who this is!"
From the phone, a woman's sobbing voice called out, "Brother, don't come back, they won't dare to do anything to me!" However, judging by the voices on the line, there were quite a few people, and he also heard a middle-aged woman crying. Su Han immediately recognized it as Chen Yu's mother.
His friend was in trouble, so he couldn't stand by and watch... Without asking any more questions, Su Han jumped into a Porsche sports car! This car belonged to Xu Yiran. She liked to keep her car at home when she had nothing to do, partly to save on parking fees and partly to find an excuse to visit him. Su Han had seen through this long ago but never exposed it. In any case, the key to the Porsche was at his place, and he could drive it anytime!
"Chen Yu! If you don't come back within half an hour, your sister will be my little wife, hahaha. Remember to bring 100,000 yuan before you come back, otherwise, we brothers really won't hold back this time and will start with your sister..." The last words from the phone made Chen Yu extremely worried! However, looking at Su Han's Porsche, he still felt awkward, wiping the dust off his clothes, and felt embarrassed to get into the car!
"Hey, what are you waiting for? Get in! Who was that just now? Tell me about it?" Su Han asked with a smile, but in his heart, he had already sentenced that guy to death. How dare he bully even someone as honest as Chen Yu? That guy was truly rotten! Chen Yu looked wronged, took out a crumpled IOU, and shook his head repeatedly, saying, "Brother Su, my mother needed surgery three months ago and was short of 20,000 yuan. I borrowed from all my relatives, but I was still short of 3,000! I had no choice but to borrow some money from Lang Bao and a few others for my mother's medical treatment..."
"I've been working desperately for three months, but the money keeps growing. So far, I've repaid over 20,000 yuan! And I still owe them 100,000! Lang Bao said not to tell anyone about this, or he'd kill my whole family! He also threatened to use Chen Xue. I really have no other choice!"
"Wuwu, Brother Su! Can you beg Emperor Tian to help me?" Su Han was almost angry enough to kick this guy out of the car. He could have handled such a small matter himself for three months, and in the end, he still had to trouble Emperor Tian! Su Han looked at Chen Yu disdainfully and said speechlessly, "Chen Yu, you are truly a useless wretch. If you trouble Emperor Tian with such a small matter, he'll probably work himself to death..."
"Ah? Su Han, then what should I do now?" Shaking his head, Su Han thought his childhood friend was truly pathetic, but he was also one of the few decent people Su Han had ever met, someone who would go through fire and water for a friend! Nowadays, such people were like rare species, truly too few!
"Alright, this matter doesn't need to trouble Emperor Tian. Since you call me brother, I'll handle those guys for you today!"
"You? Su Han, please don't joke. Lang Bao and the others are desperate criminals. If you're not careful, you might get crippled. Please don't act impulsively!" Su Han nodded.
He was indeed not acting impulsively. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to find those guys empty-handed, but would have brought some poison, along with some nails and hammers, to give those guys some torture! Smiling, Su Han didn't say much more. He knew Chen Yu's home was in a village in Jiangcheng, where most of the houses were rented out, attracting many idle people. It was very chaotic! But luckily, the rent was cheap, and over the years, it had become the liveliest area in Jiangcheng, with many migrant workers and outsiders gathered here! As for Lang Bao and his group, Su Han learned from Chen Yu that they were the local bullies, making a living by lending money at high interest rates and also controlling a few mahjong parlors, essentially being small-time local bosses.
However, Su Han didn't expect these guys to charge such high interest rates for usury! In just three months, 3,000 yuan had turned into over 100,000 yuan! This was simply robbery! The car sped off and immediately arrived in front of a two-story building in the village. These two-story buildings were actually very old and dilapidated, renting out each room for 50-100 yuan per month. Considering the price level in 2006, renting out five or six rooms would bring in over 300 yuan per month, and this money was the main income for Chen Yu's family! Of course, this was before he started working...
With a creaking brake sound! Su Han instantly saw two punk teenagers, one yellow-haired and one red-haired, standing at the entrance, smoking and squatting on the ground, playing with a butterfly knife in their hands. Seeing a Porsche sports car arrive in the alley, their eyes widened instantly!
"My god, such a nice car! They must be here to see their sugar mamas. Damn, these rich people are really hateful!"
"Tch, so what if they're rich? Believe it or not, after he parks, I'll let the air out of his tires and scratch his car. Hmph, showing off, don't you know whose territory this is!"
Suddenly, the two of them were stunned because a person got out of the car, and they recognized him!
"Chen Yu! How did this little fatty get out of a sports car? Am I seeing things?"
"Damn! It really is him, and the kid next to him looks a bit familiar. It seems like... I recognize him, it's that poor kid, Su Han!" Su Han also looked at the two opposite him. He recognized one of them as Zhou Cheng, who had fought with him and his friends when they were kids. Speaking of which, his family was very poor when he was young. After all, his mother had married Su Chengwu, who was penniless, against the wishes of the Yang family, and they had to live a hard life! It was here that he met his childhood friend Chen Yu, and together they opposed guys like Zhou Cheng... Looking at the surroundings, Su Han suddenly recalled his childhood memories. Back then, his mother worked from dawn till dusk, transforming from a young lady from a wealthy family to a tenant in a village, yet she never complained, saying she had found true happiness!
