Honey, you didn't really drugged me, did you?-Chapter 394 - 149 Chen Jie Madam dont panic the Gang

He bowed his hand and said, “Master Chen.”

Chen Jie looked at Tang Ziyue and said, “Oh, Mr. Tang, what brings you here?”

Tang Ziyue replied, “Oh, the Gang Leader was anxious since you two hadn’t arrived for so long. He sent me to hurry you along. Will it take much longer?”

Chen Jie glanced at Tang Ziyue and said, “Oh, it’s almost done. I was just teaching him some manners on behalf of the Eagle Hall.”

Tang Ziyue smiled and said, “It looks like he has indeed learned a lesson, Master Chen. We shouldn’t keep the Gang Leader waiting, right?”

Chen Jie replied, “Ah, it’s only because you, Mr. Tang, pleaded on his behalf, otherwise, I wouldn’t have let him off easily!”

Tang Ziyue replied, “Of course, of course, Master Chen, you are a man of great wisdom; I know that.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Jie said, “Brothers, have you vented your anger?”

Huff huff huff…

At that moment, Zhou Chu, drenched in sweat, wiping the sweat off his forehead and his swollen right hand, said, “Vent gone, but it nearly killed me!”

The other subordinates said similarly, and Chen Jie said, “Alright then, Qin Ying!”

Qin Ying looked over and said, “What now?”

“Pay ten thousand taels of silver and take him away!”

“What? Ten thousand taels of silver, are you insane? Why should I give you the silver?”

Qin Ying was furious and roared, questioning if there was no Royal Law anymore. He had been beaten, and now he had to pay as well—was he supposed to just accept it?

Chen Jie, hearing this, smiled and said, “Master Qin, that’s where you’re wrong. Remember we agreed beforehand that you’d withdraw from Yongchang Street, and you’d leave behind the earnings of these seven days for me.”

“That still doesn’t add up to ten thousand taels!”

Qin Ying was displeased.

Chen Jie replied, “What about the medical expenses for my brother who your brother beat up?”

“You’re asking me for medical expenses? My brother has been beaten to this state by you, and you’re asking me for medical expenses?”

Qin Ying was furious. If it wasn’t for the fact that he couldn’t beat Chen Jie, he would have torn Chen Jiusi apart with his Eagle Claws right then.

But he couldn’t beat him.

Chen Jie said, “Come on, pay up quickly. The Gang Leader is waiting, and consider yourself getting off cheap. I haven’t even charged you for the labor of my brothers. Just ten thousand taels, that’s nothing to your Eagle Hall! Pay up, pay up!”

Qin Ying retorted, “This is extortion!”

Chen Jie said, “Master Qin, make sure you have evidence when you speak. You’re the Eagle Hall Master of our Fishing Guild. Who would dare extort you?”

“You!”

“Fine, fine, I just won’t pay then, and let’s see what you can do about it,” Qin Ying gritted his teeth.

Upon hearing this, a sly smile appeared on Chen Jie’s face: “I’m sorry then, brothers, help this Master Hu strip and let’s start spanking him. If his Qin family has no shame, then we need not keep any for them!”

“You dare!”

Hearing Chen Jie’s words, Qin Ying exploded in anger. Stripping Qin Hu and spanking him in public was out of the question; it would be humiliating, utterly unacceptable.

At this moment, Qin Ying erupted in rage, and the conflict was about to intensify.

Tang Ziyue intervened, saying, “Brother Qin, calm down, calm down.”

“Now is not the time to be forceful; just endure and pay up.”

Hearing this, Qin Ying looked at Tang Ziyue and said, “What do you mean?”

Tang Ziyue replied, “A little patience may save a big plan. Just pay, just pay.”

Qin Ying, staring into Tang Ziyue’s eyes for a moment, clenched his teeth and said, “Fine, I’ll pay, I’ll pay!”

Qin Ying retrieved a silver note from his bosom, intending to throw it on the ground, but Tang Ziyue directly took the silver note from his hand, then walked up to Chen Jie and said, “Master Chen, here’s the money. You are a generous man, let’s not make a fuss anymore. We’re all brothers in the same sect; making it bigger would only turn us into a laughing stock to outsiders.”

“Mr. Tang, you can’t blame me for this, they’ve gone too far.”

“Yes, yes, I know, I know,” urged Tang Ziyue while handing over the stack of silver notes to Chen Jie, who said, “Mr. Tang, let me tell you, it’s not about the money for me. I just wanted to stand up for myself. One, two…”

Speaking, Chen Jie continued to count the silver notes, each worth a thousand taels.

“Honestly, Mr. Tang, money means nothing to me, right? No matter how much or how little.”

Chen Jie kept talking.

Tang Ziyue said, “Yes, yes, we all know Master Chen views money as dirt, how could you possibly because of…”

“Ah, Mr. Tang, are you watching? I didn’t hide anything, and we’re short a thousand taels!”

Chen Jie said to Tang Ziyue, whose face stiffened upon hearing this; he thought, weren’t we settled on seeing money as meaningless?

You don’t care about money, yet you counted and now fuss about being short one note?

“Qin Ying, we’re short one note!”

Chen Jie called out to Qin Ying, who angrily retorted, “That’s all there is. Take it or leave it, or you might as well slaughter me along with my brother!”

Chen Jie frowned and said to Tang Ziyue, “Mr. Tang, you heard it, he’s playing tricks on us! Now I can’t indulge him anymore!”

“Ah, ah, sirs, sirs, let’s stop this, stop this, Master Qin?”
