Rich Man Yang impatiently pushed the lady beside him away, sat up straight and wiped the tea off the corner of his mouth with the handkerchief, then said seriously.

Lao Si and Seventh Bro are both trash. It's their bad luck that they fell into your hands, little girl. However, you must remember that today, you must pay up all your debts for this month.

"There are only ten days until the end of the month. Since the God of Fortune has personally requested for the payment, I have saved fifty silver taels. However, the money is still in the bank, hubby and I need to go out to collect the silver taels." Xia Li looked at Rich Man Yang's ugly expression and said calmly.

"Come to my gambling house without any money, and now you're saying that you're in a bank, are you sure you're not messing with me?" Rich Man Yang squinted his eyes as his fingers drummed on the table. The two brutes standing beside him took two steps forward, ready to take Xia Li down at any time.

Sun Chun held Xia Li's hand tightly and stared at the two brutes beside Rich Man Yang.

"Yes or no, you can send someone with me to take care of it. But before you take the silver, I'll say it first. If you take the silver, you have to sign the contract and cancel the debt, so as to prevent you from repudiating the debt later on!"

Just as Xia Li finished speaking, Ol 'Five who was at the side could no longer sit still. He took a step forward and berated her: "You silly girl, stop speaking nonsense.

Fifth brother, step down." "I had a rare kindness in my heart, and it was only because of a little joke that I let you guys go through this for a month. Now that the time is up, my patience has come to an end, if you dare to tease me, the consequences will be dire.

"Ol 'Five, go with her. As for your hubby, stay here."

Rich Man Yang had returned to his normal state of smirking, and was in a very good mood.

Without waiting for the fifth brother's response, Sun Chun took a step forward, protected Xia Li behind him, and raised his opposition.

"God of Fortune, I am worried that my wife will go alone. If she wants to personally ask her for money, you can send someone to follow her."

Fifth brother had always remembered the shame of being knocked to the ground by Sun Chun outside the door. He didn't wait for Rich Man Yang to speak, he raised his fist and smashed it towards Sun Chun's chest.

"Be careful!" Xia Li screamed. Following that, his body was carried away by Sun Chun and he dodged to the side. The fifth brother missed his target and fell heavily on the ground with a loud thump.

Rich Man Yang threw the tea bowl in his hand, and six or seven brawny men rushed forward together.

Xia Li nervously held onto Sun Chun's body, six or seven flying needles instantly flying out of Sun Chun's hands. With a series of miserable cries, these brawny fellows were struck by the flying needles before they could even approach Sun Chun, and fell to the ground like autumn leaves being swept away by the wind.

Xia Li almost wanted to scream out loud, he never thought that the people around him, would have such strong martial arts.

When Sun Chun led Xia Li forward, the remaining brutes immediately protected the Rich Man Yang, preventing him from harming their boss.

Sun Chun hugged Xia Li, "God of Fortune, may I ask, may I bring my wife out to retrieve the silver?"

"What's your name?" Rich Man Yang could no longer hold it. Hiding behind a group of brutes, he asked with a serious expression.

"Sun Chun." Sun Chun calmly replied to the Rich Man Yang's question.

"Let's go and get the money." Sun Chun didn't even look at the Rich Man Yang as he brought Xia Li down to the first floor. The brute on both sides automatically dodged to the side, opening up a path for them.

"Ol 'Five, follow along." Rich Man Yang's anger was unquenchable, he never thought that Sun Chun's martial arts would be so powerful, to the point where dozens of his subordinates were afraid of him, he could not take this lying down.

"Yes, Master." The fifth brother wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and limped after her.

It was only until they left the bank that Xia Li finally felt a deep sense of lingering fear. Like a Tailed Bear, he firmly held onto Sun Chun's arm, his entire person feeling somewhat muddled.

"I underestimated these people, they actually wanted to come by themselves. If you hadn't followed me, I really would have been bullied by these people today."

"Now, you know fear?" Sun Chun's face turned cold, he glanced at Ol 'Five who was following closely behind, he had only intimidated them, if they really attacked, it would be difficult to say for sure that the wound on his abdomen had not fully recovered.

"I'm very ashamed. I thought that with silver, I would not have to be afraid of anything. But in reality, they can really do anything."

Xia Li drooped his head, his body listless, like an eggplant made from winter frost.

If you don't work hard to earn money, then we won't pay. You're not that bad because they have a lot of power and are not someone a weak girl like you can handle.

Sun Chun patted Sun Chun's head to cheer her on.

"But, without you, what am I?" Xia Li's eyes turned red, this was the first time he felt weak.

"Then from now on, you will work hard to earn more money and spend the money to have the experts in the martial arts world protect you and build a good relationship with the county magistrate. Once your influence is strong enough, do you think the Rich Man Yang will dare to bully you?"

Sun Chun guided Xia Li in his thoughts. He couldn't always guard by her side and protect her for the rest of her life. He only hoped that this little girl could learn to protect him.

"Will that day come? "It sounds very tempting. I want to be what you say I am."

Xia Li looked at Sun Chun and said resolutely.

"Sure." Sun Chun pinched her cheeks and sighed: "You're still too skinny."

"Are you looking down on me?"

The moment he turned around and looked at Sun Chun, he accidentally noticed the fifth brother who was following closely behind him. Seeing that he looked like he wanted to devour, Xia Li was so scared that he immediately turned around and pulled Sun Chun tightly, rushing forward.

Sun Chun naturally noticed the change in Xia Li, as he listened to the breathing and walking rhythm of Ol 'Five behind him. He was on guard against him at all times, preventing him from suddenly launching an attack and injuring Xia Li.

Xia Li took out a small note from his personal pocket, and walked through a few alleys, and then arrived at Red River Town's bank.

"Don't leave me by half a step. Take out the money and put it on you. It's safer."

Xia Li took the note and found a shop assistant who was familiar with the bank. He took out fifty silver and placed it in his pocket, passing it over to Sun Chun.

"No problem."

Sun Chun took the money bag and put it in his pocket, then pulled Xia Li along as he walked back.

The fifth brother was about two to three meters away from Xia Li and Xia Li. When he saw the fifty taels of silver, his expression was filled with surprise, thinking that this was Xia Li's little trick, but he never thought that she would actually be rich.

Sun Chun had long noticed that other than Ol 'Five, there were also other people sent by the Rich Man Yang at his side.

Xia Li and Sun Chun returned to the gambling house and placed a bag of fifty silver in front of Rich Man Yang. He was no longer in a joking mood and stared at the silver for a long time.

"God of Fortune, I placed the silver before you as promised. Can you sign the contract to confirm it?"

As Xia Li said this, he placed the contract he had found on Lao Si, as well as the one he had on himself previously, in front of Rich Man Yang.

"I'm a bit tired now, so I want to go back and rest. You can leave now!"

The Rich Man Yang said as he stood up to leave.

"God of Fortune, I paid you as promised. Are you really going to go back on your word?"

Xia Li immediately took out his dagger, took out a sharp blade and stabbed it into the table in front of Rich Man Yang, with a loud bang, the teacup on the table shook slightly.

The Rich Man Yang stopped and looked at Xia Li, who was holding onto a dagger with both hands and had an angry face, and smiled.

"Who do you really think you are? You dare to state conditions in front of me!? Are you qualified? "

The anger in Xia Li's heart burned even hotter. That feeling of being insulted, was magnified infinitely in his heart, and he felt as if his entire person was being tormented within the flames.

"God of Fortune, don't force me. I value money more than my life, but I won't tolerate your bullying! "Be careful, I will burn your gambling den to ashes!"

As Xia Li spoke, he took out a fire piston in his bosom and blew down with it, igniting it to flames.

"How dare you!"

Rich Man Yang flung his sleeves fiercely, staring at Xia Li.

"See if I dare! The reason I brought the silver today is so that I can meet you face to face and settle the debt of fifty silver taels, preventing you from cheating. After all, the reputation of this bet house is already rotten in Red River Town. "

Xia Li said as he grabbed the curtain.

Rich Man Yang stared at the curtain in Xia Li's hands, afraid that she would light it with her torch, she clenched her teeth and roared at the people around her.

"What are you standing there in a daze for, hurry up and bring me the pen and paper!"

"Yes, Master!" The personal attendant immediately complied. Not long after, he brought over a tray with ink and paper.

With one hand holding the sleeves and the other holding the brush, Rich Man Yang bent over and wrote a few words on the two contracts, then sealed them with the seal that he carried with him. Taking the chance, Xia Li blew out the fire piston in his hand and took the contracts that belonged to him, which he kept on the table, back into his bosom.

"Thank you, God of Fortune!"

As Xia Li spoke, he took Sun Chun and left the gold gambling den.

The moment they walked out of the gambling den, Xia Li's heart started beating wildly. She felt that her legs had softened and she couldn't walk anymore.

The two of them walked towards the crowded market with tacit understanding, and in no time at all, they had shaken off the people from Rich Man Yang who had followed them.

Sun Chun brought Xia Li to hide in a teahouse. The two of them sat next to a window on the second floor and rested for the time being.

"You did well."

The corner of his lips raised, which could be considered a compliment to Xia Li.
