Rebirth of the Strongest Seventh Prince
Chapter 57 Xia Xinling 2
"Zhu Bai, don't go too far. We are still the owners of the house before the deadline!" Xia Xinling gritted her teeth.
The noble son laughed loudly and said, "What a joke! There is still a month left. Can you collect five million gold coins?"
"That's my business, you don't need to worry about it!" Xia Xinling's face showed a strong stubbornness. At this moment, there was an unusual beauty, which made Chu Lingfeng's heart throb inexplicably. Xia Xinling took out a gold card and handed it to the noble son, saying: "This is 500,000 gold coins, I will pay you the rest slowly! I want to ask you, can you give us more time, we will definitely pay off all the money!"
The nobleman did not take the gold card, but pushed it back and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, sister Xinling, these things are not something I can decide on my own. You only have one month. When the time is up, if you can't pay the money, we will take your house!"
"We can pay a little more interest!"
"No, it's not a matter of interest. Anyway, you only have one month!" The noble young man smiled, and his hateful look made Chu Lingfeng want to beat him up.
Xia Xinling clenched her teeth and didn't speak for a long time.
"How about this! I have a suggestion, Sister Xinling, you might as well consider it!" The noble young man looked at Xia Xinling with ill intentions and said slowly: "If you agree to marry me, not only will you not have to pay back the five million gold coins, but your ancestral house will also be left to you! How do you think?"
"You're dreaming!" Xia Xinling clenched her fists tightly.
"Hey, you don't have to refuse so quickly. I'm afraid you will come to beg me in person in a month!" The noble young man seemed to have Xia Xinling in his grasp. He laughed loudly and slowly left with his two men.
Xia Xinling seemed to have lost her soul. She stood there for a long time without moving. It was unknown how much time had passed before she came to her senses and walked towards the dormitory building dejectedly.
Chu Lingfeng looked at the lonely figure walking away and felt a little uncomfortable.
"Should we help her? After all, she is a beauty, isn't she?" Chu Lingfeng muttered to himself, and left this place and walked towards Acacia Garden.
When they returned to Acacia Garden, the three playboys were already waiting there. When they saw Chu Lingfeng coming back, they all surrounded him.
"Boss, where have you been? I, Fatty, met a stunning beauty, who is no less beautiful than the pretty senior sister who led us last time!" Fatty narrowed his eyes and said with a face full of nostalgia: "It's a pity that you came back too late, Boss. The beauty has already left!"
"I also saw an extremely beautiful woman, she is Jingyu Xiangyun, the eldest daughter of the Jingyu family. Although she is a little older than me, her mature charm is really intoxicating!" Wen Dongdong closed his eyes, still seeming intoxicated by the fragrance of the beauty.
"I also met a beauty, but I can't afford to offend her!" Ouyang Zhenping looked scared and whispered, "Do you remember the little princess I met last time? She was the one I met just now and I almost got beaten up by her!"
"What's going on?" The three playboys suddenly became interested.
"Don't mention it!" Ouyang Zhenping said helplessly, "I was just peeking at a little girl, but the little princess came up from behind and tried to hit me with a water ball. She's a princess, so how could I dare to fight back? I could only run for my life!"
"Haha!" the three dandies laughed.
"By the way, what did you harvest, Boss?"
Chu Lingfeng did not answer, but asked: "Who among you knows Xia Xinling?"
"Xia Xinling? I seem to have some impression of her. Let me think..." Wen Dongdong stroked his mustache, thought for a moment, and then said loudly: "I remember now. She is from the Xia family. However, since the death of the head of the family, Xia Tian, the Xia family has declined!"
"What's going on?" Chu Lingfeng was impatient to know about Xia Xinling. Even he himself didn't know why he was so concerned about a woman he didn't even know.
Chu Lingfeng's urgency made Wen Dongdong slightly stunned, and then he said: "It seems that half a year ago, the Xia family's mercenary group was transporting something valuable to the Zhu family, a noble family in Beijing. They were ambushed on the way and the whole army was wiped out. Even the head of the Xia family, Xia Tian, died, leaving a lot of debts to his wife and children."
"Besides Xia Xinling, is there anyone else in the Xia family?" Chu Lingfeng asked.
"It seems there is also a little boy, and Xia Tian's wife, but Xia Tian's wife seems to have been bedridden!" The speaker was Ouyang Zhenping.
"So that's how it is!" Chu Lingfeng let out a long sigh. No wonder Xia Xinling ran to Acacia Garden to cry secretly, because all the burdens were on her, a little girl. Her mother was bedridden, her younger brother was still young, and the family owed millions of gold coins in debt. How could a weak woman afford all these?
Chu Lingfeng suddenly understood why his heart palpitated when he saw the girl in Acacia Garden. It was the girl’s melancholy, her tears, and her indomitable spirit.
"By the way, tell me about the Zhu family's situation!" Chu Lingfeng looked at Ouyang Zhenping.
"The Zhu family, like the Duanmu family and the Qi family, is also a hereditary first-class earl family. However, the Zhu family is different from the Duanmu family and the Qi family. In addition to the earldom left by their ancestors, their descendants have gradually turned to business." Ouyang Zhenping said slowly.
"What does the Zhu family run?"
"The slave market and magical pets. More than a quarter of the slave trade in the imperial city comes from the Zhu family. I once heard the old man say that the Zhu family is among the top five in terms of wealth in the imperial city, and they have also trained several powerful slave-catching teams."
Chu Lingfeng nodded and thought to himself, this Zhu family is not simple. Perhaps even the death of Xia Tian, the head of the Xia family, may be related to them.
