Chapter 198: Reaping the Bitter Fruit
Before, she could go to Brother Hu because he was different. But now, these young punks actually dared to lay a finger on her, that was absolutely unacceptable.
So, she glared at them and said sharply, "What do you think you’re doing? Do you want to be thrown in jail? I’m telling you, if you dare touch me, I’ll go report you."
"Sister Li, do you really think we’ll believe you? Back when you wanted us to ruin that good friend of yours, you didn’t say it like this. You said that a woman afraid of losing face wouldn’t dare to report it."
Hearing this, Cheng Li was furious. Indeed, Monkey and the others had been worried that Jiang Xue would report them and they’d go to jail, so they especially brought up this issue.
But she had assured them confidently that it wouldn’t happen, saying that a woman’s greatest fear was this matter. If she reported it, her reputation would be ruined.
Yet now, they were using this to shut her up. At this moment, Cheng Li regretted it a bit. She regretted trusting these people too easily.
But, thinking that she had given them money before, she wasn’t willing to give up and said, "Don’t you want the rest of the money?"
"Of course we want it. But what does that have to do with whether we serve you or not?"
"Alright, Dog, stop wasting words with her. We’d better hurry up and do the job, otherwise, if someone comes, it’ll be bad."
"Yes, yes, we should get down to business quickly."
With that, they started pulling at Cheng Li’s clothes. By this point, Cheng Li was truly scared. She regretted it immensely, wishing she could kill these people right there. Of course, her biggest hatred was toward Jiang Xue. If it weren’t for Jiang Xue, she wouldn’t have turned to these people, and now she wouldn’t be suffering these consequences.
Monkey might have been the boss among them, but he didn’t join in. Instead, he went to stand guard at the door.
