The girl looked at Jiang Cheng, and then stood up with Jiang Cheng's help.
"Thank you, thank you!" The girl said, and wrapped the windbreaker that Jiang Cheng had put on her more tightly.
Seeing the girl's shy and helpless look, Jiang Cheng sighed and said, "I'll send you back!"
After that, he didn't care about the girl's reaction and reached out to hail a taxi.
The girl didn't refuse. After getting in the car, the girl still said, "Sir, thank you. You're really a good person. I'll return the clothes to you when I get home!"
Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "It's okay. It's nothing."
Soon, the taxi arrived at a shanty town in the west of Beijiang City. The place looked dilapidated. There was a model house and some houses made of sheds. However, no matter what kind of house it was, it had the same characteristic. It was dilapidated!
After the girl got out of the car with Jiang Cheng, she looked at Jiang Cheng awkwardly and said, "I'm sorry, sir. Our houses are all rented, so it's very shabby."
Jiang Cheng didn't look down on the girl at all. "Hehe, a place to live is actually the same as food. As long as you have it, everything will be fine. As long as you work hard, you will have everything." After saying that, he smiled gently. His smile was very warm.
The girl nodded gently and said, "Then I'll go home and change my clothes, and then I'll send the clothes back to you."
Jiang Cheng smiled and nodded. For this girl, Jiang Cheng was quite appreciative. She was self-reliant. Although she had such a disappointing father, the girl didn't give up on life. Instead, she chose to face it bravely.
Sometimes, people were like this. Not everyone's life was smooth sailing. Occasionally, they would encounter difficult times, but they would pass eventually. Time would give you the best answer.
Under the girl's guidance, Jiang Cheng came to the door of an ordinary siheyuan. Although it was a siheyuan, it was only surrounded by simple courtyard walls.
At this moment, there was a sudden shout from inside.
The girl was shocked and quickly ran in. Jiang Cheng also followed closely behind.
At this time, seven or eight hooligans were arguing with a middle-aged woman in the courtyard of the girl's house. The middle-aged woman looked to be in her fifties or sixties and looked like a down-to-earth housewife. The middle-aged man looked shifty-eyed, and he didn't have much hair left. At this moment, he was trembling behind the middle-aged woman.
Seeing this, the girl quickly walked forward and blocked the middle-aged woman behind her. "Who are you? What do you want?"
The leader of the group was a man with a flattop haircut wearing sunglasses. He chuckled and said, "Old Man Kan, I didn't expect you to have such a beautiful daughter. If you don't pay your debt today, I'll use your daughter to pay for it!"
The middle-aged man who was protected by the girl was still hiding behind the middle-aged woman, not daring to speak.
Facing all of this and her father's gambling addiction, the girl felt extremely helpless. Her family had been implicated, so she could only bury the pain in her heart and endure it.
Jiang Cheng also saw clearly from the side. This should be the girl's gambling addict father that Zhao Huihuang had mentioned.
However, the girl's mother pulled the girl behind her and said, "Xuan 'er, it's none of your business. You should leave now."
The girl smiled bitterly and said, "Mom, where can I go now?"
Seeing that the middle-aged man behind him didn't come out at all, the leader waved his hand and said, "Drag Old Man Kan out for me. If he doesn't pay the money today, I'll cripple him and take this beauty away to pay the debt!"
When the hooligans heard this, they dragged the middle-aged man who was hiding behind them out without saying anything.
The middle-aged man was so scared that he screamed like a child. In the eyes of the middle-aged woman and the girl, there was more indifference than sadness. It seemed that this kind of thing had happened more than once.
Jiang Cheng, on the other hand, watched quietly from the side without interfering.
In Jiang Cheng's view, gambling was the same as taking drugs. They were both bottomless pits. No one could get out of them. No matter how hard they were taught, it was difficult to change. Just like his brother Wei Xiaohu, he ended up dead in the end.
When the middle-aged man was pulled out, he immediately hugged the leader's leg and begged, "Brother Ming, I beg you, give me two more days. I beg you, give me a few more days. I'll definitely pay you back. I beg you, please, I beg you." After saying that, the middle-aged man kowtowed as if he was pounding garlic. Jiang Cheng was moved when he saw that.
The leader said with a cold face, "Han Jianjun, I've given you enough time. Today is the deadline. If you don't pay me back, then I'll put you in a sack and throw you into the river to feed the fish. If you think I'm joking with you, then you can try!"
Han Jianjun heard this and turned around to hug the girl's leg and said, "Daughter, my good daughter, hurry up, give me the money and help me pay back the money. Hurry up, or they'll really kill me."
The girl heard this and looked like she was about to give up. She just said lightly, "Dad, I really can't help you this time. I don't have money, and I don't have the strength to let you do this anymore. I go out early and come back late every day just to let you and mom live a good life. But what about you? You only know how to gamble. Every time you get beaten, you say you don't want to gamble anymore. But in the end? What about your promise every time? Don't say that I don't have money! Even if I have money, I won't help you pay back the gambling debt. "
When Han Jianjun heard this, he suddenly got up from the ground and then slapped the girl hard. Everything happened too fast. No one expected that Han Jianjun, who was like a kitten just now, would suddenly become violent and slap the girl hard.
The slap was so hard that the girl even staggered a few steps. But the girl did not cry, nor was she surprised. Her face was still cold!
Han Jianjun scolded, "Han Xuan, good, you ungrateful wolf. I raised you for so long in vain. I provided for you to eat, drink, and go to school. I didn't expect that in the end, this is how you repay me. Well, in that case, you can pay off the debt for me!"
After that, Han Jianjun said to the big men with a flattering face again, "Big brothers, I give my daughter to you to pay off the debt. Please don't kill me!"
The big man looked at Han Jianjun, then said with a sneer, "Well, since you said so, we have no proof. As long as you can sign and leave your fingerprint, today's debt will be written off. I will also let you live a few more days, old dog!"
When Han Jianjun heard that the big man would let him go, he almost knelt down and kowtowed. "Okay, okay, I'll sign, I'll sign!"
When the big man heard that, he waved his hand and said, "Write a note for him, then sign and leave your fingerprint."
When the gangster behind heard that, he immediately took out a pen and paper from his bag and then began to write and draw. Soon, the gangster finished writing, then threw the pen and paper on the ground and said, "Hurry up and sign. Hmph, you even sold your own daughter, a dog thing!"
At this moment, Han Jianjun did not care so much. He quickly kneeled on the ground and began to sign. After signing, he handed his hands to the big man with a flattering face and said, "Big brother, it's done!"
The big man glanced at it, then snorted and said, "Hmph, brothers, take this little girl away and give her to the boss! With such a good look, I believe that 100,000 yuan will be earned back soon, hehe. "
When the gangsters heard that, they all went forward to grab Han Xuan. When Han Xuan's mother saw this, she quickly ran in front of Han Xuan and said sternly, "Who dares? I want to see who dares! If anyone dares to touch my daughter, I will fight him to the death today! "
Han Xuan's mother was like a hen protecting her chicks, tightly protecting Han Xuan behind her.
When the big man heard that, he snorted and said, "Hmph, I gave you face, but you don't want it. Pull this old woman away and take the little girl away!"
When Han Xuan saw this scene, she immediately became anxious. She just recovered from the extreme disappointment of jealousy, and several people were about to wrestle with her mother.
In a hurry, Han Xuan saw Jiang Cheng standing on the side, so she grabbed Jiang Cheng and then said pitifully, "Big brother, save my mother, please, as long as you can save my mother, I will promise you anything!"
As Han Xuan spoke, her voice began to tremble, but she clenched her teeth and did not shed a single tear.
When Jiang Cheng saw this, he sighed in his heart. This world was originally a world where the strong preyed on the weak. Debts should be paid, and murder should be paid with one's life. This was originally a fair thing. Jiang Cheng might walk such a path in the future, but who could say who was right and who was wrong in such a thing.
Han Jianjun was indeed hateful. No matter how inhumane a person was, he could not use his daughter to pay off a debt. For such a person, he was no longer a human, but a walking corpse. Jiang Cheng was too lazy to save him, and even if he saved his life, he could not save his heart.
But when he saw Han Xuan's helpless look, Jiang Cheng's heart was moved. He seemed to see the shadow of an old friend, who was so helpless at the beginning.
After thinking about it, his heart was inexplicably painful, and Jiang Cheng said faintly, "Stop!"
When the few big men heard that, they immediately stopped, then looked at Jiang Cheng and said, "Oh, I thought you were just a little boy toy, now you are finally willing to talk!" A gangster said to Jiang Cheng disdainfully.
Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "What society is it now? You are actually learning from Huang Shiren and want to force someone's daughter to pay off a debt. It seems that I have to teach you a lesson!" After that, he took two steps forward.
When the big man saw Jiang Cheng's appearance, he sneered and said, "Hmph, who are you? What qualifications do you have to speak here?"
