Hu Tianhan saw the person arrive and immediately lowered his head, saying,
"I'm sorry, boss. I'll handle this matter."
Fang Huiran saw the newcomer and said,
"It's you?"
"Indeed, Miss Fang. What brings you here this time? If there's anything, we can sit down and talk. Why resort to such drastic measures?"
The newcomer said preemptively.
"Is that so? Is this how your company does business?" Fang Huiran questioned.
"If you don't mind, shall we talk in my office? Rest assured, I will give you a satisfactory answer today."
The newcomer said, making a welcoming gesture, inviting Fang Huiran and Zhao Xiaoying to his office.
Zhao Xiaoying also recognized the newcomer. Since he was Hu Tianhan's boss, he could naturally make decisions for Hu Tianhan. This matter might truly have a turning point.
Following the newcomer, they entered an office, passed through a few more doors, and finally arrived at a very large office.
This office was on the top floor of Shenhua Building. The reason Fang Huiran and Zhao Xiaoying didn't feel like they had gone up a floor was because the newcomer had used magic.
Shenhua Group did not allow anyone to go to the top floor without permission. Therefore, the newcomer could not bring outsiders directly to the top floor from a lower level.
Doing so would expose his identity.
On this top floor, he could do whatever he pleased. Sudani Novel Network
However, upon arrival, the newcomer was still very polite, pouring each of them a cup of plain water.
His office was not extravagant at all; it didn't even have any earthly beverages or alcohol.
He could offer them water because they were his prey. One was already ensnared, and the other would be the next target.
As the newcomer poured the water, Liu Sandao seized the opportunity.
He instantly appeared beside Zhao Xiaoying's cup.
Zhao Xiaoying had no desire to drink water at all; she was completely bewildered by the contract. Only by understanding this matter could the stone in her heart be moved.
"Boss, tell us, how should this matter be resolved?" Fang Huiran was direct.
The newcomer let out a cold smile and said faintly, "As per the contract!"
"But this contract clearly has issues. Xiaoying said it was for three years when she signed it, so why are you asking for the money back suddenly?"
"You shouldn't ask me. Why weren't you more careful when signing the contract? Moreover, our company's money has already been transferred to you. You wanting to renege on the debt now, that doesn't seem right, does it?"
The newcomer continued to speak coldly, lighting a cigar.
"This... but it wasn't like this when signing the contract!" Zhao Xiaoying said loudly.
"Our company always operates according to contracts. Are you unwilling to acknowledge it because you have no money?" The newcomer's tone was icy, devoid of his earlier smile.
It was indeed because of a lack of money that she was so insistent, but even with money, being so obviously fleeced was something anyone would find unbearable.
"Boss, can we have some leeway regarding the money? Can you give me some time?"
"How much time? A week or a month?"
The newcomer asked.
Whether it was a week or a month, she wouldn't be able to raise the funds.
Zhao Xiaoying fell silent.
"It seems I have no choice but to move out of home! Wuwuwu!" Zhao Xiaoying said, bursting into tears.
"Moving out of home is fine, but the money still needs to be repaid!" The newcomer took a puff of his cigar and reminded her again.
"No money, no money! Are you really trying to drive me to death?" Fang Huiran cursed, unsure where she found the courage.
"Actually, you do. I know you have a lot, a lot of money, if you're willing!"
The newcomer's words were inexplicable to Zhao Xiaoying. But it was a path, so she stopped crying and said,
"What are you saying?"
Fang Huiran understood immediately. The newcomer was referring to the lucky fruit.
This was a solution.
However, Xiaoying had never experienced the consequences of this.
"I'm saying you have it, and a lot of it. If you're willing, let alone that paltry two million, perhaps even five million could be produced in minutes!"
"You, you're not tricking me, are you?"
Zhao Xiaoying said doubtfully.
"Oh, I see now. This is all your scheme. You intentionally lured Xiaoying to mortgage her house, and your goal is her lucky fruit, isn't it?" Fang Huiran suddenly realized, regretting not instigating Zhao Xiaoying to get the lucky fruit together in the first place.
Or perhaps, they shouldn't have gone to Yaotian Building.
If it weren't for that dream, perhaps the three of them wouldn't have gotten involved with this damned lucky fruit, and perhaps she wouldn't have kept getting plastic surgery...
But now, everything was irreversible.
"What if it is? If you don't sell it, the lucky fruit has no value to you, doesn't it?"
The newcomer's words seemed to have some logic.
"This..." Zhao Xiaoying hesitated. After all, she had indeed exchanged some money for the lucky fruit before.
Since Fang Huiran also exchanged money for the lucky fruit, why was she so resistant?
Such a thought flashed through her mind: did Fang Huiran know something? Could the lucky fruit really not be sold? Was this the reason Liu Sandao and Fu Ruhai strongly objected before?
"Actually, the money you owe the company isn't much. Fifty thousand would be fifty lucky fruits. And with Fang Huiran here, one thousand each, how about it?"
Seeing that Zhao Xiaoying had a hint of willingness to sell the lucky fruit, the newcomer quickly seized the opportunity and said.
"No, Xiaoying, don't listen to him. This is their conspiracy!"
Fang Huiran opposed Zhao Xiaoying selling the lucky fruit because she had sorted everything out: she had fallen into it step by step. From the very first day she borrowed money at usurious rates, she had entered the trap of Shenfeng Credit.
And the ultimate goal of this trap was the lucky fruit.
"What conspiracy? Will a conspiracy give you money? Don't forget, who owes money and can't repay, who went for plastic surgery for beauty, did you ever think about the consequences when doing these things?"
"You!" Fang Huiran was indignant but could not refute.
Last time, when Mei Ziqi's lucky fruit could not be retrieved, she had already learned the reason for failure from Wugu Dashen. If they were not willing, it would require more than ten times the magic power. For her current self, this was clearly impossible.
Therefore, they had to make them willingly sell the lucky fruit.
"I can give you time to consider, but not too long. Otherwise, we will proceed according to the contract. Furthermore, I must tell you a rule: for each debt collection, the interest will increase by 10%."
"You guys? This is simply robbing us!" Fang Huiran was enraged.
Liu Sandao listened to this. Although he knew it was the newcomer's threat, he could not rule out that he would actually do it.
The main reason was that he was the God of Death, and he was capable of driving people to their deaths.
"Okay, but you must give me one day to consider!"
