"Ding-a-ling..."
Just as Liu Bo was about to call Elder Tang, Elder Tang sent a message. Liu Bo's smile froze instantly, his eyes filled with shock!
The person I sent is him, his name is Wang Er Zhu.
The screen only showed this sentence, followed by a photo. The person in the photo was the young man in front of him!
This young man, whom he had always dismissed as a pauper, was actually the person Elder Tang sent, the one who was supposed to talk business with him!
And this meant he had to give this piece of land to him for free!
This land was worth six million!
The more Liu Bo thought about it, the more shocked and angry he became. He quickly deleted the message, intending to stick to his stubborn denial. But as soon as he finished deleting, he heard Elder Tang's voice from the other side.
"Er Zhu, I've sent your photo to that boss. Er Zhu, please wait a moment!"
*Snap!*
Liu Bo's phone instantly dropped to the floor. His face pale, he looked at Er Zhu, forcing out a smile that was uglier than crying:
It seemed he couldn't stubbornly deny it anymore. This kid had actually called Elder Tang!
"Are you still going to deny it? I have a recording here!" Er Zhu didn't even glance at Liu Bo. As soon as he finished speaking, the content of the bet they had just made played from his phone.
As someone with the Heavenly Eye ability, he naturally knew everyone's thoughts. How could he possibly let Liu Bo continue to stubbornly deny it!
"You! Fine, it's yours, but don't get too pleased with yourself. I will get this debt back sooner or later!"
Hearing the recording and recalling Elder Tang's words, Liu Bo knew he had no other option. He threw the contract onto the ground, uttered these harsh words, and turned to leave.
Today was truly miserable. He had thought he'd make a fortune, but instead, he lost six million!
No, the person closest to Elder Tang!
Wang Er Zhu?
Isn't the person closest to Elder Tang his assistant? And this name... it sounds like a country bumpkin!
Thinking this, Liu Bo's eyes lit up. His eyes darted around, and his mind raced through thousands upon thousands of ways to get revenge on Er Zhu!
"Wait!" Before Liu Bo could take a few steps, he suddenly heard Er Zhu's voice from behind.
He thought Er Zhu was scared and a sly smile crept onto his lips: "What? Scared? If you're scared, give me ten million, and I won't seek revenge on you then!"
"Pick up the contract and hand it to me with both hands."
Er Zhu glanced at Liu Bo as if he were an idiot, then looked at the vast expanse of land and slowly said.
He was just a nouveau riche. If he was afraid of someone like this, he wouldn't be doing business everywhere.
"You! Aren't you just Elder Tang's assistant? What are you pretending for? I'm telling you, I have many ways to deal with you. Try being arrogant again, damn you!"
Liu Bo pointed at Er Zhu and shouted loudly, his tone like he was reprimanding a child.
Er Zhu shrugged helplessly, too lazy to argue. He suddenly grabbed Liu Bo's outstretched finger and gently bent it down. With a *crack*, Liu Bo felt as if he had been electrocuted, jolted, and stood frozen on the spot, his face pale.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
An overwhelming pain struck him instantly. Liu Bo was in so much pain he couldn't even speak. His eyes were filled with shock!
He never expected an assistant would dare to lay a hand on him, nor did he expect a country bumpkin to be so fast!
This kid was simply tired of living!
"Hurry up and pick it up!" Just as Liu Bo's finger was about to fall off, Er Zhu let go. Liu Bo plopped onto the ground, trembling all over from the pain!
Looking at the contract on the ground, Liu Bo instinctively didn't want to pick it up. But thinking of Er Zhu's agility just now, he could only grit his teeth and endure the pain to pick it up.
"Mr. Wang, please keep the contract. I will complete the remaining procedures for you as soon as possible!"
With both hands presenting the contract to Er Zhu, Liu Bo, suppressing his inner rage, replied respectfully.
Although his attitude was respectful, his heart was burning with anger. If Er Zhu hadn't laid a hand on him, he would have killed Er Zhu if he could!
While Liu Bo wasn't from a wealthy family, he was a person of some standing in Willow Town!
But this time, he was actually taught a lesson by an assistant!
And this assistant was a country bumpkin!
The more Liu Bo thought about it, the angrier he became. He felt like he was about to explode. After seeing Er Zhu take the contract, he quickly turned and strode away.
This time, he would never let this Wang Er Zhu off the hook!
He would make him die!
Liu Bo gnashed his teeth so hard they creaked, and his clenched fists made *crackling* sounds.
Watching Liu Bo's imposing receding back, Er Zhu knew he would retaliate, but so what? He was just a minor character, and Er Zhu wasn't afraid of him!
After sorting out the land issue, Er Zhu went to Elder Tang's house to visit him. Looking at Elder Tang, whose belly was as large as a drum and who was listless, a flash of insight appeared in Er Zhu's eyes.
Elder Tang has... liver cancer!
Seeing Elder Tang's liver had turned gray, the light in Er Zhu's eyes instantly vanished. He frowned and walked over.
"Er Zhu, you're here. Please sit down." Hearing footsteps, Elder Tang turned his head with difficulty and weakly patted the seat next to him.
"Er Zhu, don't worry. I just have some abdominal distension and pain. I'll be better soon."
Seeing a flicker of worry in Er Zhu's eyes, Elder Tang forced a dry smile to comfort him.
Just a few days ago, he suddenly had severe stomach pain and his abdomen was so swollen it felt like it was about to burst. He had intended to go to the hospital, but then his family doctor, Dr. Yang, came. He had him examine him.
"This is not simple abdominal distension and pain; it's liver cancer. Grandpa Tang, let me treat you."
As Er Zhu spoke, he took out his silver needle pouch. Just as he was about to treat Elder Tang, a pair of hands snatched at his silver needles. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and dodged them.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Elder Tang just ate something indigestible a few days ago, causing the abdominal distension and pain. Liver cancer? You really dare to say it!"
Er Zhu looked up and saw a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses looking at him. The man was quite handsome, but his brows were filled with malice, making him look like a bad person.
"Dr. Yang, this is Er Zhu, my distinguished guest. Do not be rude!" Just as Dr. Yang was about to say more, he suddenly saw Elder Tang's face darken as he reprimanded him in a low voice.
"Er Zhu, please don't mind him. Dr. Yang is the most skilled among the younger generation in the medical field, and he doesn't allow others to question his medical skills."
Elder Tang forced a smile with difficulty. He pointed to Yang Ning beside him and awkwardly introduced him briefly.
Although Elder Tang wouldn't let Yang Ning curse at Er Zhu, he also didn't want Er Zhu to hold a grudge against Yang Ning. After all, Yang Ning had been with their family for over ten years, and his maternal grandfather was Elder Feng of the capital!
