"It was their own doing, don't worry! Nothing will happen," Chen Haoxuan said with a smile to Chen Yina.
Jiang Dong assured them that they had not embarrassed the soldiers and quickly dealt with the thugs brought by Chen Haorong.
"Everyone get down here, quickly," Jiang Dong ordered as they surrounded the thugs brought by Chen Haorong, forcing them to squat obediently on the ground. Anyone who did not comply would be met with punches and kicks. This was instructed by Chen Haoxuan; there could be no mercy towards enemies.
Li Xin pointed at Chen Haoxuan, her voice trembling, "Just wait, I'm calling the police right now. I'm going to sue you, I'll make sure you go to jail."
"Oh, I'm so scared! Can you tell me how I can make you calm down?" Chen Haoxuan said with a slowly rising sinister smile.
Li Xin realized that Chen Haoxuan would never give her One Hundred Million RMB, so she decided to extort some small amount of money instead. She pretended to look pitiful and said to Chen Haoxuan, "You hurt me; I want you to pay for my medical expenses. Otherwise, I'll call the police."
"You tell me, how much?" Chen Haoxuan asked with a wicked grin.
"One thousand—no, one hundred thousand Renminbi," Li Xin stopped crying. Hearing Chen Haoxuan's words, she felt he might actually agree.
"I just saw one of my people slap you, so you want me to pay you one hundred thousand Renminbi. How about this! I'll give you another one hundred thousand Renminbi if my person slaps you again. How does that sound?" Chen Haoxuan said with a mischievous smile. One hundred thousand Renminbi meant nothing to him; he was looking for a way to vent his anger.
"You—you..." Li Xin didn't know whether to be angry or happy. A slap was worth one hundred thousand Renminbi! That was more than she earned when she was younger as an escort. She wanted to agree but was afraid of the pain.
"Zhang Tiezhu, it's not easy for others to earn some money! Just listen to her! Don't hit her!" Chen Haoxuan told Zhang Tiezhu.
Zhang Tiezhu did not share Jiang Dong's principle of not hitting women; he didn't care whether someone was male or female—if he disliked them, he would hit them. He walked up to Li Xin and sneered, "You asked me to hit you, so I won't hold back."
"You—you..." Li Xin stammered. In truth, she wanted to say no; perhaps she wanted that one hundred thousand Renminbi too much, which is why she couldn't bring herself to say it.
With a loud slap, Zhang Tiezhu struck Li Xin again.
"Well done! Now you have two hundred thousand Renminbi. I'm giving it to you right now," Chen Haoxuan said as he took out his pen and checkbook, wrote a check for two hundred thousand Renminbi, walked over to Li Xin, and handed her the check.
"Do you want more?" Chen Haoxuan asked with a smile, looking at Li Xin.
Li Xin nodded absentmindedly.
"Zhang Tiezhu, help her earn some more money!" Chen Haoxuan instructed Zhang Tiezhu.
Zhang Tiezhu waved his hand again and slapped Li Xin on the upper left side of her face with a loud smack.
"Here, this is one hundred thousand Renminbi for medical expenses. Take it. Do you want more?" Chen Haoxuan said with a wicked grin.
Chen Haorong stood up and ran to Li Xin's side, shouting, "Mom, how can you do this? It's only one hundred thousand Renminbi, is it worth it?"
Li Xin turned to her son and retorted, "One hundred thousand Renminbi is not much—then you give it to me! You only give me a little over a thousand each month; it's not even enough for clothes."
"Mom, let's go home!" Chen Haorong urged her. He felt embarrassed by her actions. In the past, he often bragged about how wealthy he was, but now his mother was willingly allowing herself to be hit and humiliated for money. It was mortifying.
"It's just a few slaps; I can take it," Li Xin insisted. After saying that, she turned to Chen Haoxuan and said, "Let him keep hitting me!"
"Alright," Chen Haoxuan replied with a sinister smile.
The sound of slaps echoed in the air. Chen Haorong couldn't bear to watch any longer; he felt too ashamed and turned to flee. The villagers who were watching were envious of Li Xin; they wished they could take her place. Earning one hundred thousand Renminbi with just one slap was an opportunity too good to pass up!
Seeing Chen Haoxuan hand out ten one hundred thousand Renminbi checks to Li Xin made Chen Yina feel pained. She thought Chen Haoxuan was being unreasonable; generosity shouldn't reach this level!
If Chen Yina could understand Chen Haoxuan's feelings, she wouldn't think this way. He was taking revenge for his past self; the money didn't matter as much as improving his mood.
When Zhang Tiezhu had slapped Li Xin ten times, blood trickled from her mouth. Unable to endure any longer, she shouted, "Stop! I don't want it anymore." She had already taken ten slaps and earned one million Renminbi; that was enough.
"Ah—you're not going to take it? I still have plenty of money left! What should I do?" Chen Haoxuan feigned agony at not being able to spend the money.
Li Xin looked greedily at the check that Chen Haoxuan was waving in his hand. She wanted to continue, but she couldn't take it anymore. She regretted letting her son go back; otherwise, he could have taken the beating for her while she stood by and collected money. What a great plan that would have been!
Due to her injured mouth, Li Xin spoke unclearly: "Can I go back and let Chen Haorong take the beating for me?"
Without thinking, Chen Haoxuan agreed, smiling, "Of course, but his worth isn't as high as yours. If he takes a slap, he'll only compensate ten thousand Renminbi."
Chen Yina didn't want to see the evil side of Chen Haoxuan any longer. She walked over to him, wrapped her arms around his arm, and said sweetly, "Brother Xuan, please stop this. Let them go!"
Feeling that it was about time to end this, Chen Haoxuan waved his hand at Li Xin and coldly said, "Get lost! I don't want to see you again."
Li Xin turned and ran home. In the past, if she had heard Chen Haoxuan insult her like that, she would have jumped up and cursed him out. But now she wouldn't because she had gained so much; she felt too embarrassed to lash out!
With the main characters Li Xin and Chen Haorong gone, only fifty thugs remained as supporting characters. Jiang Dong asked Chen Haoxuan, "Boss, how should we deal with these thugs?"
Chen Haoxuan walked up to the group of thugs and sneered, "I think I just heard Chen Haorong call you brothers—right? But why do I feel like he doesn't see you as brothers at all? Look at him; he ran away while he doesn't care about your lives at all. I'm curious why someone like him can be your brother. Although you were hired by him, if you make mistakes, you need to face the consequences."
"Jiang Dong, you guys should teach them a lesson before letting them go," Chen Haoxuan instructed Jiang Dong and the others. His meaning behind 'teaching a lesson' was quite different; he intended for Jiang Dong and his crew to give these thugs a good beating.
