Huang Xiaolong was puzzled. He thought to himself, ‘Who did I just provoke? Why do they keep asking me to get the h*ll out and to get lost? The people in the city are so mean.’

The boss lady was afraid that Huang Xiaolong would get hurt, she said immediately, “Brother Earthworm, um… My brother promised me that he’ll quit gambling. I didn’t think that he would sneak out and gamble. I also didn’t think that he would take a high-interest loan from Brother Tiger. I really had no idea about all of these…”

Gambling? Debt?

Huang Xiaolong finally understood. It seemed like this beautiful boss lady’s brother is a gambling addict. It also seemed like he was always losing so that was why she had Phra Phrom on the bar to make sure that his brother did not lose money.

However, from the looks of it, it seemed like Phra Phrom did not work. Not only was her brother losing money, but he also owed a lot of high-interest debt. Now, the loan shark was at their door.

“Hehe.” The wretched man, Brother Earthworm chuckled coldly. His eyes looked like the eyes of a hungry wolf. They were wandering over the boss lady’s curvy body. It looked like he wanted to strip the boss lady and then have his way with her.

“Xiaoman, you’re wrong. It’s only right and proper to pay up your debt. As the ancient saying goes, a dutiful son is obliged to pay his father’s debts. That rascal Xiaoqiang is an orphan and he only has you as his sister. If you won’t pay his debts, who will?” Brother Earthworm stared at the boss lady and swallowed. “Xiaoman, don’t say that I’m not taking care of you. I’ll give you two options now. One, pay back all the money your brother borrowed from Brother Tiger with interest. Two, if you really don’t want to pay, give us your brother. Brother Tiger will take care of him himself. After that, you’ll just get his corpse back afterward.”

After she heard this, the boss lady shuddered and shook her head. “Brother Earthworm, I don’t know where my brother is. He’s been gone for a few days. P-Please don’t make things difficult for him.” When she said this, there was a hint of caution and pain in her clear eyes. She gritted her teeth. “Brother Earthworm, how much did Xiaoqiang borrow again?”

“Hehehe.” Brother Earthworm smirked. “Not much. With interest, it’s only 580 thousand bucks. However, if you don’t pay today, it’ll be 600 thousand. Xiaoman, pay up. If you do, everything will be fine and dandy. All will be well with the world. You’ll be okay, and I’ll be okay.”

“580 thousand…” The boss lady’s cute face turned white instantly. Her attractive body began to tremble. It was as if her spine has stopped working. She used the bar as support so she did not collapse.

“The people in the city are so good at making money. Today is 580 thousand, tomorrow is 600 thousand. My gosh, this is more than what I make from catching ghosts.” Huang Xiaolong calculated with his fingers and mumbled.

“Brother Earthworm, I-I really don’t have that much money. I sold the house our parents left us to pay for Xiaoqiang last time.” The boss lady started crying.

“Sigh.” There was a devious expression brewing on Brother Earthworm’s face. He sighed and said earnestly, “Xiaoman, it hasn’t been easy for you these few years. Your parents passed away early and you raised Xiaoqiang all on your own. That animal, Xiaoqiang, is not a good cookie. He doesn’t want to do anything decent and wants to be a gangster. He even got involved in gambling. How much money had you paid for him? You even sold your house. Your home is gone now. Look at you, you’re so beautiful but no man dares to want you. Right, who would want to get involved with this kind of trouble?”

Brother Earthworm paused and smirked. “Xiaoman, why don’t we do it this way. You don’t have to pay the debt. You should just follow us. Please Brother Tiger properly, please me and please the gang. You’ll be able to clear Xiaoqiang’s debt in a blink of an eye.”

His true self was finally showing. 

“Is this the legendary repaying monetary debts with one’s body? My gosh, the people in the city are so devious. They’re so underhanded,” Huang Xiaolong mumbled.

“No! I don’t want to!” The boss lady’s face was really pale. She looked at Brother Earthworm and then at the others Brother Earthworm brought along. There were disgust and nausea in her eyes. “Brother Earthworm, p-please let me go. J-Just give me a few more days. I’ll sell this shop and then work somewhere else. I’ll pay you back even if I die from exhaustion.”

“Xiaoman, don’t disrespect me when I want to respect you!” Brother Earthworm’s expression became hard and there was malice in his eyes. He said coldly, “A woman like you would become a sl*t and let men have their way with you sooner or later. Why are you still trying to be modest? This is all I have to say today. If you can’t pay, then you should come with me. You’re still a virgin, right? If you let Brother Tiger take your virginity tonight, it might be worth some money…”

Those words upset the boss lady. She started weeping and bit her bottom lip. There was blood seeping out from where she was biting. There was misery and despair in her heart. “Why is my life so miserable? Am I destined to sleep with disgusting men?”

“Cough cough.” At this moment, Huang Xiaolong coughed a few times and picked up a packet of tissues from the bar. He handed it to the boss lady.

The boss lady tensed up and took it with trembling hands. There was gratitude in her eyes.

“Um, let me say something.” Huang Xiaolong was speaking fast, “According to the boss lady’s fortune, it is indeed full of troubles and misfortunes. She would normally be miserable for her whole life. However, if she meets a noble person, when she meets that person, she will be blessed by the gods and that would change the course of her life.”

“Um, today, the boss lady will meet that noble person and she will prosper for the rest of her days.” Huang Xiaolong smiled mysteriously.

The boss lady wiped away her tears and looked at Huang Xiaolong. Her teary eyes looked like they were in deep thought. “Sir, I-I will meet a noble person in my life? They’re gonna appear today?”

“He’s already here.” Huang Xiaolong smiled.

“Motherf*cker!” Brother Earthworm flew into a rage. “You country bumpkin, who the f*ck asked you to talk, you f*cking f*ggot!”

After he said that, the goons from behind Brother Earthworm charged toward Huang Xiaolong. They were laughing maniacally.

“Sir, run!” The boss lady exclaimed.

Huang Xiaolong did not move. His face looked nonchalant. He was grinning while mumbling, “I have a good temper. When people curse at me, normally, I won’t get angry. However, when they do it repeatedly, then it’s a no-no.”

Huang Xiaolong tapped on the bar quicker than words could tell.

There was a container filled with chopsticks on the bar. Suddenly, it levitated magically.

Huang Xiaolong waved his hand lightly.

Woosh. Woosh. Woosh. Woosh.

The whole bunch of chopsticks flew in the air like darts. Their momentum was quick and sudden.

Every single chopstick hit Brother Earthworm and his underlings’ knees accurately.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Brother Earthworm and his people all fell to the ground.

At that moment, their knees were in excruciating pain. They had lost all feeling from the lower halves of their legs.

The boss lady widened her eyes and she forgot her despair from before. Her mouth was gaping so wide it could fit a cucumber. She looked at Huang Xiaolong with an astonished expression.

Brother Earthworm and his people were all kneeling on the ground. It was as if they had seen a ghost. 

‘Damn it, are you sure they’re not recording a TV show?’

He waved his hand and the chopsticks attacked everyone’s knees like magic weapons. Then their lower bodies all felt numb and stiff like they had been paralyzed. They were also kneeling in the standard position of a filial child. They looked so professional.

‘What the hell was that?’

“Y-Y-You…” The arrogance in Brother Earthworm’s eyes was being replaced by fear. He was cold sweating heavily.

“It’s fine. Don’t worry. I only tapped the Heding Point on your knees lightly. It won’t paralyze you,” Huang Xiaolong said while chuckling. “Crawl out of here now. Go home and soak your feet in hot water. Find someone to massage the Yongquan Point under your foot. Half an hour should be fine.”

“A-Alright, I didn’t expect you to be a master, sir. I admit my mistakes.” There was a bitter resentment in Brother Earthworm’s eyes. Then, he was the first one to crawl out of the restaurant.

Then, his underlings followed behind him like maggots. They all crawled out of the restaurant with fear on their faces.

“Sir, it’s a small world. Even if you’re the strongest, you’re still all alone.” Brother Earthworm turned around and looked at Huang Xiaolong as if he wanted to gouge his eyes out. 

“Alright, got it. You’ll seek revenge on me, right?” Huang Xiaolong waved his hands impatiently. “I just left the countryside so I don’t have a job yet, which means I will be free for the time being. So, I hope you guys come and retaliate against me soon so that I won’t be so bored. The thing is I am never conflicted when people strike back against me.

“Also, go back and tell your Brother Tiger or Brother Dog, to collect the debt of the boss lady’s brother from me. I’m done talking, continue crawling.”
