"I have to say, you've been a sneaky little rat, hiding perfectly all this time.
But as they always say, 99 days for the thief and one day for the owner. Your body should have some good old cash!" Their vicious laughter filled the air.
Ethan was struck to the floor, and laughter cracked through the arena. Everyone passed by like nothing was happening. No one was going to risk their lives for a peasant.
"You can't do this. The agreement doesn't say I'm overdue yet!" Ethan protested.
Liege stepped forward, slamming Ethan's hands as pain erupted through the whole of his body.
"Sadly, we make the rules here and not you. And we can wait for you to get a shitty little life together and give us our money. We want it now.
Besides, getting rid of trash like you would be doing the world a big favour. One less bulldog taking up the space real humans should be!"
Ethan tried to break free from their circle. Run away. But he was surrounded from every side and outnumbered.
Ethan crashed backwards, he struggled and tried to break from their grip, but he was firmly outnumbered.
"Give up homeless dog. You should start correcting your last words cause soon enough, you will be saying hello to the devil in hell!"
Ethan spat on his face.
"At least I won't get to see this ugly face of yours anymore!"
Liege's face twisted with rage. He has never had anyone treat him in such a manner before, let alone a little peasant like Ethan.
"You just signed up for a more painful death!" Liege turned around to the men and ordered.
"I want to hear every bone in his body breaking. And if I am not satisfied, I am going to show you how it's done, using your bones as the proper specimen!" He jerked.
The men bowed and thundered at Ethan. Their weapons were ready to tear him into tiny bits, but then, they stopped.
An SUV that just stormed into the arena captured their glances. Sleek and intimidating. It was unlike anything that they had seen before and they were caught in awe.
A lady stepped down from the car. Her glass-like skin reflected the perfect glow of the sun and her steps blended with the wind.
Liege smiles briefly. The lady had definitely come to see him.
Her aura pierced through the air, rendering everyone almost breathless. And for a brief moment, all the men around were so lost in their individual fantasies that they could barely remember that they had someone like Ethan to deal with.
"What do you want here princess!" Liege rolled his lips with pleasure as the images of the lost filled his head.
He trained to touch her but a towering figure. Broad like a bouncer and demising shook his hands off.
Everyone had been so focused on the lady who had just walked into the place that they had not seen the guardian who also walked in with her.
"No one touches me without my permission;"
She brushed past all of them and walked over to Ethan. His pain ridden body trying to comprehend everything that was happening as she bowed before him and chanted.
"Young master! I'm sorry I'm late!" She apologized with multiple bows.
Confusion cuts deep into Ethan like a knife.
"Young master?" Liege gathered his shattered pride together and let out a vicious laughter.
"You must have gotten the wrong person, princess. The only thing this man is mastering is debts and he is as good as dead already. Maybe the worthless stuff inside him might just be enough to repay his debts."
Eva frowned deeply. "You've done enough harm already. Now I would enjoy leaving the young man alone if you intend to leave!" The thunderous sound of the Lady's voice betrayed her calm and soothing looks. She was as fierce as an army general.
"Just as hot as you look. You will be perfect to warm my bed today.
As for the little flea. He is dead already , sadly." He responded.
However, she was unmoved.
"You don't know who you are messing with." Eva's words came with her glare and a suppressing aura.
Leige grin faltered the anger in her voice was unmistakable and he didn't like the over-confidence.. He frowned deeply, the angry lines cutting through every inch of his face.
"Who do you think you are?" He growled.
"You would be dead already before you find out!" Eva replied with a flat dead tone.
Liege roared. That was the second threat he was receiving today and he didn't take threats lightly.
"Seems you need to be taught to dance!" He signaled to the men instantly, they all attacked the lady with a loud yell.
The bouncer stepped forward. He stared down at them like little children. Checking each of them in their steps and throwing them off in the room like little play toys.
Liege growled, seeing all his men rolling off in pain.
"Pathetic pieces of crap. Don't think that I am done with you!" He brought his phone out of his pocket and placed a call.
Within the duration of seconds, motorbikes, cars stepped in, far beyond what Liehe thought.
A smug was strapped to his face.
"This is your last chance to beg for mercy on your knees. Licking my feet alongside might just have gone a long way to soften my heart a bit!"
However, he was ignored by the lady. Instead, her eyes were focused on the gray-haired man who had walked in together with the rest of the guards.
Liege's smugness broadened almost instantly. The owner of the Mafia companies, and they served under him. Seeing how well he did, he might just end up being promoted.
Mr. Gereald walked up to Leige would quickly braced himself for the welcome.
Rather, a slap resounded through the hall, shocking pale into Leige's face. "You bastard!" Gerald growled.
"I will make sure I make you pay for this!" He thundered.
Immediately, he ran off to the lady and knelt. "Miss Eva, please forgive me for my insolence. I didn't train him that way!" He pleaded.
Leige's face instantly shot up, Miss Eva? The hidden secretary to the most powerful family in the city. A family that controlled over half of the country's wealth.
It was like a sword had been thrust right through his chest and he almost passed out.

It’s almost noon, and you’re still not out of bed.”Daohua, upon seeing her, didn’t sit up but instead put down the storybook, patted the edge of the bed, gesturing for Zhou Jingwan to come sit, and then smiled, “Tomorrow’s New Year’s Eve, and here you are with time to run over to my place?”Zhou Jingwan’s expression turned serious, “What, you despise my company now?”Daohua picked

The day after Yan Wenkai’s birthday, Xiao Yeyang and Dong Yuanxuan, Su Hongxin, and others were set to leave, and Li Xingnian was also taking the Li sisters, Li Zixuan and Li Zixin, back to the provincial capital on this day—it so happened that they could travel part of the way together.At the dock, Li Zixuan and Li Zixin were holding Daohua’s hand, their faces full of reluctance.“I really don’t want to go home so soon!”Daohua: “I don’t want you to leave either. If I’d known, you really should have come to play with me sooner.”She had already heard from Madam Li that her great-aunt and second-aunt had found a suitable match for Sister Zixuan, and after the New Year, they just waited for Sister Zixuan to have a look before they would finalize the marriage arrangement.In the future, they wouldn’t have many opportunities to play together.On the other side, Yan Wenxiu, Yan Wenkai, and Yan Wentao were also saying their goodbyes to Xiao Yeyang and the others.Xiao Yeyang had intended

This year, the epidemic had caused their elder family members much worry, so they needed to spend more time accompanying them at home.The twentieth of December was Yan Wenkai’s fifteenth birthday. On this day, Xiao Yeyang arrived with Dong Yuanxuan and Su Hongxin.Li Xingnian also came over, firstly to celebrate his nephew’s birthday and secondly to take Li Zixuan and Li Zixin home.With the New Year approaching, it wasn’t appropriate for the two young ladies to stay at the Yan Family’s house indefinitely.“You want to give me land again?”In the Yan Family’s garden, Daohua looked at the deed Xiao Yeyang handed her with a face full of refusal, arms crossed: “Out with it, what’s the reason this time?”Xiao Yeyang was at a loss for words: “Miss Yan, can’t you at least look at what it is before you speak?”Daohua was taken aback, sheepishly said, “It’

Daohua had always been reluctant to marry.Even though she had lived in ancient times for twelve years and had grown accustomed to the rules of the era, there were still some concepts she found unacceptable.Ancient marriage customs emphasized parental authority and the matchmaker’s words, valuing the alignment of social status and family interests above all, with little to no concern for the affections between the man and woman involved.Many people got married without even having seen each other’s face.The very thought of living the majority of her life with a complete stranger made Daohua shiver uncontrollably.In these ancient times, families who were slightly indulgent towards their children would, at most, allow the prospective bride and groom to meet during the matchmaking process. Daohua’s desire for shared values, temperament, and mutual understanding was nothing short of a daytime fantasy.Moreover, she had no sacrificial spirit to speak of, managing concubines and educatin

Every time Daohua sent food, Xiao Yeyang would personally check it himself.Noticing that this time the offerings seemed more comprehensive than before, Xiao Yeyang felt quite happy inside.Defu, too, was beaming, and he said to Xiao Yeyang with a smile, “This humble one has inquired, and the sweet fermented rice is only available to the Master and the three young masters of the Yan Family. Young Master Dong and Young Master Su don’t have it. Also, things like black rice, rouge rice, and fresh fruit—our place has more than others do.”Although Xiao Yeyang was happy at heart, he pretended not to care, “This fellow, why has he suddenly started to be good to me?”Defu laughed, “Isn’t that because the Master has also been good to Miss Yan? Miss Yan is just returning a favor for a favor!”Xiao Yeyang felt somewhat displeased upon hearing this. It felt as if Daohua was reluctant to owe him and had to return something whenever he gave her a little something.Could it not be that Daohua cared

The next day, Yan Yishuang did not appear in the classroom, and the entire Yan Family immediately became aware of Yan Zhigao’s stance—he had implicitly approved of the punishment Daohua had imposed on Yan Yishuang.In the classroom, Yan Yihuan and Yan Yile arrived early. Seeing that Daohua and the Li sisters had not yet arrived, they began to whisper among themselves.“Yesterday, after Third Sister returned to her courtyard, she threw quite a tantrum. I guess she must have been scolded by Uncle when she went to the front yard!” Yan Yile said with a giggle.Yan Yihuan reflected for a moment, “This is Third Sister’s own fault.” She paused, “The front yard is where Uncle works, and it’s full of men from outside. We sisters really shouldn’t go there.”“Even if Aunt had something to attend to, she would send a servant to summon Uncle.”“Third Sister burst into tears and ran to the front yard yesterday. Not only did she disgrace herself, but she also made the Yan Family lose face.”Yan Yile
