Chapter 116: “jessica, Is 200 Million Enough? Want Me To Add A Little More?”
“I said—fuck! Your! Mother!!!”
As the words fell, Lin Xiuyuan’s fist was like a bolt of lightning, smashing fiercely toward Kwon Young Il’s cheek.
Only a “crack” muffled sound was heard, the fist wind accompanied by the explosive sound of flesh bursting in the air!
Kwon Young Il didn’t even have a chance to react, his whole body staggered back two steps, then retched, spitting out a mouthful of blood foam mixed with two large teeth directly onto the asphalt ground at his feet, staining a few pieces of floor at the tavern doorway.
“Urgh!”
Kwon Young Il clutched his mouth, letting out a miserable scream, his gaze instantly filled with terror and anger as he glared at Lin Xiuyuan in front of him, “You’re crazy, you’re fucking crazy!”
But Lin Xiuyuan had no intention of stopping, the sharpness hidden in his usual demeanor completely tearing open at this moment, his whole body like a beast breaking free from its cage.
Seeing Kwon Young Il stagger and just steady his footing, the next second, he was already closing in again.
His mouth coldly saying, “You piece of shit, what kind of tofu are you to dare teach me how to live, saying I eat soft rice.”
Before the words finished, Kwon Young Il instinctively swung a fist to counter, but his movements couldn’t keep up with the opponent’s ruthless rhythm and physical fitness at all.
Then Lin Xiuyuan slightly leaned back, dodging the opponent’s punching motion, and followed up with a fierce kick to his lower abdomen.
“Bang!”
Kwon Young Il was instantly like being hit by a train, his whole body flying backward and crashing into the roadside greenery.
After heavily smashing into it, he slid down to the ground, blood streaming from his face, mouth skewed, saliva drooling everywhere, his whole body curled up, unable to move.
Only then did the shocked Jessica come back to her senses, her face dramatically changing as she hurriedly stepped forward to block Lin Xiuyuan, “Hey, assistant, Lin Xiuyuan…”
Yoona standing nearby was stunned in place, holding a bag in her hand, her gaze quietly watching the scene in front of her, momentarily failing to stop it in time.
“You, you’re crazy, I’m calling the police, get ready to go to jail.”
Kwon Young Il, trembling in pain, after seeing Lin Xiuyuan stand still, finally tremblingly pulled out his mobile phone from his pocket, gritting his teeth in rage, “I’m suing you, this is intentional injury.”
But as he just picked up the mobile phone, Jessica had already rushed up and pressed down on his wrist.
“Stop making trouble, Tyler.”
Her voice carried suppressed anxiety and anger, “If you make this call and we end up at the police station, we’ll definitely make the news. My future work and endorsements will be affected, what about the company? What about the liquidated damages? You know how serious that is, we’ve been through it once already.”
These words hit like a wake-up call, making Kwon Young Il freeze in place instantly.
Although he had an investment company before, due to the pandemic, it was long reduced to an empty shell.
If not for maintaining face and giving him some identity in alcoholic beverages, it would probably have gone bankrupt long ago.
Besides that, the brand he cooperated with Jessica on, and this one beside him, were his last remaining cash cows.
If something went wrong, though not to the point of starving, he definitely couldn’t live so free and easy.
As someone used to a free and easy life, suddenly being suppressed would be worse than death.
So thinking of this, Kwon Young Il immediately put down the mobile phone, his hand gripping it trembling, but he didn’t dare dial again.
Meanwhile, Lin Xiuyuan in front quietly watched the two of them, his gaze like a knife, sharp and cold.
A few seconds later, his anger seemingly not yet subsided, he stepped forward.
This action scared Kwon Young Il into instinctively shrinking back, and Jessica immediately spread her arms to block in front, speaking in panic, “Very sorry, this is our problem. But you should have vented your anger by now, any more moves and it’s really intentional injury.”
Kwon Young Il, protected behind her, had his face burning with pain at the moment, his lower abdomen faintly aching, teeth still dripping blood, utterly wretched.
Looking at the young man’s cold gaze, he suddenly realized what a young person’s impulse meant; if he’d known, he definitely wouldn’t have shot off his mouth.
But with things as they were, Kwon Young Il still gritted his teeth and sat up, glaring at Lin Xiuyuan.
Like using this final action to prop up his last bit of face, “Fine, you’re tough, we’ll see about this.”
But Lin Xiuyuan didn’t even glance at him now, shook his right hand like shaking off dust, then turned his gaze to Jessica.
Jessica silently lowered her head to look at Kwon Young Il’s teeth on the ground, took a deep breath, her expression complex.
She never imagined a spur-of-the-moment plan would turn into this scene.
Seeing her silent, Lin Xiuyuan didn’t bother with more words, just coldly swept the two another glance, then turned to walk toward Yoona, as if nothing had happened.
“Let’s go, Yoona.”
Yoona nodded and followed his steps.
But the matter seemed not over, that beaten idiot acted stupid again, only hearing from behind, “If you dare walk away like this, get ready to go to jail.”
The voice wasn’t loud, but extremely grating.
Though this time the other party was smart, not daring to curse again, afraid of another beating from Lin Xiuyuan.
Nearby, Jessica hearing Kwon Young Il’s shout, quickly turned her head wanting to stop him.
“Don’t mind me, this is between us two.”
But she was shaken off by Kwon Young Il’s right hand, his face gloomy as he gazed at Lin Xiuyuan who had turned back again.
Although his hands were still trembling slightly, the shame and hatred now far outweighed the fear.
“You little punk, I can skip calling the police, but you must compensate me, if I’m not satisfied, get ready to go to jail.”
Although Jessica’s earlier words had calmed him a bit, the anger hadn’t truly dissipated.
So for dignity, he changed tactics, planning to regain some face from Lin Xiuyuan, even if it dragged his own cash cow down.
Men fear losing face the most.
And in front of Jessica and Yoona, it was even worse.
But this so-called “face” of his looked utterly low to Lin Xiuyuan, who directly sneered, “Want money, huh, tsk tsk tsk~”
While tsking, his gaze passed over Kwon Young Il and landed on Jessica standing nearby, “This is the man you found, huh, heh.”
Jessica stood in place, looking down at her shoe tips, her facial expression extremely complex.
Shame, disappointment, and a bit of indefinable sadness.
But Lin Xiuyuan had no time for her emotions, turning back to Kwon Young Il, just about to open his mouth.
But before he could speak, Yoona standing nearby had already stepped in front of him to protect him, “Just say how much you want, I’ll give it to you from my side, everyone was at fault just now, a bit impulsive, better to settle privately for everyone’s good.”
Hearing this, Lin Xiuyuan looked at Yoona in front of him, hmm, her skin white and tender, really taking care of him.
But this wasn’t what he wanted.
So he reached out and gently pulled her back, saying firmly, “You just stand there, I’ll handle this.”
Then looking at the other side, “Say it, how much do you want.”
On the other side, seeing Yoona actually step out to defend Lin Xiuyuan, both Kwon Young Il and Jessica were somewhat shocked.
Especially Jessica, she thought Yoona was at most a bit familiar with this guy, but didn’t expect her to defend him to this extent.
Then seeing Lin Xiuyuan pull Yoona back, she was stunned again.
Because as she knew, Lin Xiuyuan had just recently, due to life troubles, asked her back for that 20 million debt.
Now refusing Yoona’s help, what could he use to deal with Tyler.
Sure enough, Kwon Young Il soon gave his answer, “You punched me once, kicked me once, I won’t extort you, just two billion.”
Truth be told, from Jessica’s introduction, he knew very well Lin Xiuyuan had no money.
So he was asking an outrageous price, waiting for the other to not be able to pay, so he could humiliate him.
But Yoona’s earlier statement made him hesitate, with an impulse to take the money.
Because he really needed money.
So after Lin Xiuyuan heard his lion’s mouth “two billion,” he just sneered, his gaze passing over him again to land on Jessica.
Though not speaking, the sarcasm and disappointment in that gaze spoke more than words.
Jessica avoided his gaze, her fingers unconsciously twisting her clothes.
Seeing this, Lin Xiuyuan ignored it, lowered his head to pull out his mobile phone and dialed a number.
The other side picked up instantly, Krystal’s voice echoing in the empty street, clear as if right by their ears, “Hey, Xiuyuan~”
At this voice, Yoona and Kwon Young Il instinctively looked up, but the first to explode in reaction was Jessica.
She jerked her head up, pupils contracting sharply, staring deadly at Lin Xiuyuan, lips trembling, seeming to want to say something.
Lin Xiuyuan didn’t give her a chance to speak, his tone calm as discussing the weather, “Something came up on my side, need some money, can you transfer now?”
Krystal on the other end barely thought, her tone natural, “Sure, how much?”
Hearing this, Lin Xiuyuan put down the mobile phone, pressed mute, and held it toward Jessica, a mocking curve on his lips, “Jessica, is 2 billion enough? Want to add more?”
If Lin Xiuyuan’s earlier beating of Kwon Young Il and reactions only made Jessica silent.
At this moment, Jessica was like being set ablaze.
Humiliation, anger, shock mixed together, making her unable to maintain calm. She could only glare at him through gritted teeth, unable to say a word.
But Lin Xiuyuan didn’t care about her anger, retracted the mobile phone, canceled mute, and continued, “2 billion, transfer it to Jessica’s account, how about that.”
“Hey, Lin Xiuyuan.”
Jessica finally broke down, lunging forward to grab his mobile phone.
Nearby Kwon Young Il was also stunned by Lin Xiuyuan’s move, completely unable to understand why Krystal would willingly pay for him.
And Krystal on the phone, hearing Jessica’s shout, sensed the seriousness, her voice immediately tense, “Older sister? Xiuyuan, what exactly happened.”
By now, Lin Xiuyuan who had dodged Jessica retreated two steps, like watching a farce, tone still calm.
“Nothing big, but from Jessica’s reaction, probably 2 billion isn’t enough, transfer more to her, how about that.”
At this time, a car whistled by on the roadside, kicking up a gust of wind and sand.
Lin Xiuyuan stood in the wind, figure upright, expressionless.
