Chapter 2904 - 2908: Duped?

"Lan Duo, do you know your own background?"

Xiao Chen sat down and asked.

Hearing this, Lan Duo’s expression suddenly changed: "Brother Xiao, I’m not leaving, I absolutely won’t leave, I want to stay with you!"

Xiao Chen smiled and said, "I never said I was going to make you leave.

It’s just, everyone has their own story.

And you should know your own story.

Only then is a life complete.

If you want to live with me, I won’t object.

I won’t drive you away either.

But you have the right to know."

"I know where I come from!"

Lan Duo bit down on her teeth and said, "Back then I was already nine.

My family all wanted to kill me.

To offer me up as a sacrifice to the Mountain God.

Only my parents felt sorry for me.

My father blocked the pursuers on the road.

And ended up being killed.

My mother was also murdered by people in Central Plains City.

I don’t want to go back to that home.

There’s no longer my dad and mom in that home.

I’m just like a wandering lonely ghost.

Only you, Brother Xiao, feel sorry for me.

The director uncle and auntie also care about me.

I’m very happy now.

I’d rather stay here for the rest of my life, I don’t want to go back!"

"You know, they’ve already come looking for you!"

Xiao Chen thought for a moment, then still told the truth: "Many organizations from the Ten-Thousand Great Mountains have come over.

Remember, don’t act on your own.

This is the safest place.

Whatever you do, don’t run around.

Otherwise if you get caught.

I might not be able to find you!"

"Mm!"

Lan Duo nodded heavily.

"You keep this Red-Striated Snake too, it can protect you. I’ll head out first!"

Xiao Chen said goodbye to Lan Duo and went to stroll around the hospital.

After all, he nominally holds the title of Director of Emergency, he can’t just never show up.

Jiang Lin’s whole family was discharged.

Strictly speaking, Jiang Feng and Lucia were discharged fairly early.

They’re already officially back at work now.

Jiang Lin had just been discharged.

But he had already become a eunuch forever.

The first thing he did after leaving the hospital was to find Jiang Yan.

"Sister, didn’t you say you were going to avenge me?

How come Xiao Chen and Jiang Meng, those two bitches, are still living so well?"

Jiang Yan sighed and said, "I underestimated them, the revenge failed.

But it’s fine.

Your brother-in-law recently took on a big deal from the Jinyu Sect.

As long as he pulls it off.

He’ll completely cement his status in the Jinyu Sect.

By then, you can officially join the Jinyu Sect too.

Once we have money.

And status.

Do we really still have to be afraid we can’t take revenge?"

"Right, I remember a month ago he seemed to have mentioned this too.

Then I got beaten and hospitalized.

And ended up forgetting.

What project is it exactly?"

Jiang Lin couldn’t help but ask.

Jiang Yan smiled and said, "That I can’t tell you. This project has to do with your brother-in-law’s future.

Once word gets out.

If other people hear about it, it’ll probably cause trouble.

Anyway, what I can tell you is.

This project is absolutely guaranteed profit, no loss.

It’s a big deal of the Jinyu Sect.

It’s just, your brother-in-law wants to seize control of the project.

And get hold of a portion of the Jinyu Sect’s shares.

So he has to put up money himself.

Otherwise, even if the deal succeeds, he’ll still just be working for someone else."

"Sounds pretty impressive, how much profit are we talking about?"

Jiang Lin asked curiously.

Jiang Yan held up one finger.

"One hundred million!"

Jiang Lin exclaimed.

"You’re really underestimating this project. I’m telling you, it’s ten billion Gemstone Currency!"

Jiang Yan laughed and said, "Once it’s done, just think about how high your brother-in-law’s status will be.

When this is settled.

Won’t it be a piece of cake for you to get into the Jinyu Sect?

Your brother-in-law wants us to make money.

That’s why he told me.

He doesn’t even want to bring other people in.

The money we put in will turn into tenfold, hundredfold returns in the future!"

"That kind of profit!"

Jiang Lin suddenly stood up.

His eyeballs were about to pop out.

"Shh, keep it down, don’t let those Jiang Family people hear.

If they find out.

They’ll definitely scramble to invest."

Jiang Yan lowered her voice.

"Of course, of course!

If it’s a hundredfold profit, if I put in a million, that’s a hundred million!"

Jiang Lin’s eyes lit up: "Not bad for my future brother-in-law, he really is something.

And he’s such a nice guy.

Unlike that Xiao Chen, gets a bit of filthy money and thinks no one else matters.

Didn’t the Jiang Family say they’re cutting ties with us?

Perfect, in the future we’ll make them kneel and beg us to restore relations.

Let them taste how miserable it is to get stepped on!"

"Brother, let me be clear.

By then, whether they cry or beg.

We can’t agree to it.

We absolutely have to show those dogs some color!"

Jiang Yan gritted her teeth.

This daughter really doesn’t have the slightest sense of gratitude.

If not for Xiao Chen.

She would already be dead.

Even like this, she’s still dreaming of revenge.

But she can’t do it herself, so she can only rely on others.

"Sister, ask brother-in-law for me, what’s the max I can invest!"

Jiang Lin said excitedly, "A Jinyu Sect deal, that’s definitely guaranteed profit, no loss."

"You have money?"

Jiang Yan glanced at Jiang Lin and said, "The way you’ve been messing around these last few times, you’ve blown through all of our family’s money.

Dad only has the last one million Gemstone Currency left.

He’s watching it closely.

Don’t even think about getting it out of his hands.

Sigh, we’d better not count on it.

As long as your brother-in-law makes money.

We can just ride his coattails for some benefits."

"No way!"

Jiang Lin shook his head and said, "We have to invest. With a guaranteed-profit-no-loss deal like this, anyone who doesn’t invest is an idiot!

Don’t worry about Dad.

I’ll definitely get that one million out of him.

Right now the problem is, a million is too little.

We need more money!

Only then will our earnings be bigger.

Opportunities like this aren’t easy to find!"

So after the siblings discussed it, they went and took out online loans.

Because the interest was very high.

They borrowed quite a lot.

Plus the one million Jiang Lin swindled from his father.

They had over three million Gemstone Currency in total.

All of it was handed to Joseph.

But right after Joseph got the money, he disappeared without a trace.

At that point, Jiang Lin and Jiang Yan panicked.

Truly lost both money and body.

They got scammed for money and for sex.

The key problem was they had also taken out online loans.

Now they simply couldn’t come up with that much cash.

"That damned dog.

When he stopped picking up the phone, I went to ask over at the Jinyu Sect.

Turns out that guy was just a foreign teacher.

This time he came back.

Used that identity to scam over ten million Gemstone Currency.

Then ran!"

Jiang Yan was practically going insane.

"It’s over, it’s over, this time Dad is definitely going to beat me to death!"

Jiang Lin was completely dumbfounded.

Three million Gemstone Currency.

Two million of that was high-interest online loans.

If he couldn’t repay them, he really might get killed.

"Jiang Yan, you bitch, you really got me killed.

Didn’t you say that dog was a high-level exec of the Jinyu Sect?

How could you not check him out?

You just believed whatever he said?"

Jiang Lin lost it.

"I’m suffering more than you, I even let that dog sleep with me!"

Jiang Yan was crying her eyes out too.
