Courtyard House: Drunk and barging into the Xu family's house, I woke up numb.

Xu Damao responded.

"No problem, Dr. Han. As long as you can get your money back, I will pay you for the medicine immediately."

"Just like we said before, three hundred yuan, not a penny less."

Xu Damao had no other choice at the moment, and he didn't know if Doctor Han had any good ideas, but he could only try anything as a last resort.

Upon hearing this, Doctor Han nodded and extended one hand.

"Then you can pay a deposit of fifty yuan first."

Xu Damao hesitated when he heard the word "deposit," knowing that he didn't have much money left.

If paying this deposit doesn't solve the problem, then he'll really become even poorer than Sha Zhu, a penniless bastard.

"This……"

Doctor Han noticed Xu Damao's doubts and gently comforted him.

"Don't worry, if I can't get the money back for you, I will return it in full without taking a single penny."

"If my method can help you get your money back, then you can just pay me the remaining balance as usual."

"Of course, if you don't believe me, then just pretend I didn't say anything."

Xu Damao hesitated for a moment, then finally gritted his teeth and said, "What the hell?"

"Okay, Dr. Han, I believe you."

"I'll pay this money!"

After saying that, Xu Damao took out fifty yuan and handed it to Doctor Han. Doctor Han put the money away and then waved to Xu Damao.

“Come here, I’ll tell you how to get this money back.”

Xu Damao ran over expectantly, and his eyes lit up after listening to Doctor Han explain his method.

He stood there and gave Doctor Han a thumbs-up in praise.

"Well done, Dr. Han, that's a brilliant move, though it's a bit underhanded."

"Dr. Han said nonchalantly."

"Since things are already like this, what's the point of worrying about losing anything?"

"If all else fails, try being polite first and then resorting to force again, and see how your dad responds."

"If he still doesn't give you the money, then do as I say, so you won't feel so guilty."

Xu Damao returned to his chair and sat down. After thinking for a moment, he picked up his wine glass and downed it in one gulp.

"Fine, since things have already come to this, I'll just go all out and do as you say!"

After making up their minds, Xu Damao and Doctor Han started drinking and chatting again, discussing some details until late at night.

Chapter 213 Ding Qiunan is in danger; he has a knife! [Please subscribe]

Although the Spring Festival has passed, it is still winter, and short days and long nights are still the norm.

When Cao Xu woke up, it was already past five o'clock in the afternoon, and it was quite dark outside.

After getting up, Cao Xu quickly washed up and started eating.

Cao Xu's dinner was simple: a bowl of chicken noodle soup, a poached egg, a small dish of sausage, and a cold dish of cabbage hearts, wood ear mushrooms, and shredded carrots.

Eating a bowl of hot noodles on a cold day is really comforting. After eating, Cao Xu rode his bicycle out.

Although it was already dark, the streets were still quite crowded, especially in the direction of the steel rolling mill.

Some walked, some cycled, all hurrying towards their destinations.

Especially those who lived nearby and walked there, they all walked incredibly fast with their hands in their pockets and necks hunched, as if someone was chasing them from behind.

After leaving the courtyard, Cao Xu rode his bicycle to the steel rolling mill, but when he turned into the alley, he heard a familiar voice.

"Hey, what do you want?"

Cao Xu recognized the voice as Ding Qiunan's and turned directly in the direction of the sound.

Then I saw a girl with a ponytail, a scarf, and a big cotton-padded coat. This girl was Ding Qiunan.

It's cold today, and even Ding Qiunan, who doesn't usually like wearing thick clothes, is wearing a big cotton-padded coat.

Although the military green cotton-padded jacket made Ding Qiunan look a bit bulky, it still couldn't hide her graceful figure.

As for Ding Qiunan's fair and delicate face, it could not be concealed.

"Sister, what's the rush? Let's chat for a bit."

"It's so cold and boring at home, let's go see a movie together."

Cao Xu already knew what was going on when he saw this; it was all because of her unique face.

You know, in this day and age, many people's faces get chapped from the cold winter.

A pretty girl like Ding Qiunan is extremely rare in their area, which is why she was blocked from the way.

Blocking Ding Qiunan's path were several shady-looking young men dressed in green military uniforms with five-pointed star backpacks slung around their waists.

Cao Xu knew that these people were probably from a large compound on the next street. These people usually had nothing to do and liked to stop girls and tease them when they had nothing to do.

In Beijing, this behavior has a special name: "拍婆子" (pāipózi).

Clearly, these guys have their eyes on Ding Qiunan, who has an excellent appearance, figure, and temperament.

Ding Qiunan clearly saw through the intentions of these people, and she nervously shouted at them.

"Get out of the way right now, or I'll call for help!"

Ding Qiunan's words did not scare the group away; the leader of the group laughed.

"Sister, why are you calling for help? We didn't do anything."

"We brothers just want to get to know you and make friends, right, guys?"

The people behind the man in the lead immediately echoed his sentiments.

"right……"

Upon hearing this, Ding Qiunan became even more nervous, and the unanimous response from the crowd made her subconsciously take a step back.

The man at the front laughed upon seeing this.

"Sister, be careful, don't fall."

"Don't be afraid, we are all good people."

As he spoke, he walked forward again, and looking at Ding Qiunan's slightly fearful appearance, he actually found her somewhat cute.

He couldn't resist reaching out to touch Ding Qiunan's tender face, which seemed so soft it looked like you could squeeze water out of it.

"Alright, guys, instead of staying home to hibernate in this freezing weather, you're out here acting like hooligans, aren't you afraid of disgracing the compound?"

Cao Xu's voice wasn't loud, but it still startled the people on the field.

"You little bastard, go cool off somewhere else. How dare you meddle in my business? Be careful, or I'll have someone take your money."

As soon as the leader finished speaking, a young man who looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old pulled a brick out of his pocket.

Holding a brick, he made a fierce face and gestured wildly at Cao Xu not far away.

Cao Xu could tell from the man's posture that he was bluffing.

"Wow, that's impressive. You really scared me."

"But I'm not afraid of being scared. The more you scare me, the more excited I get."

"Hey bro with the brick, wanna come over and give me one?"

When Ding Qiunan saw Cao Xu appear, her anxious mood instantly calmed down.

She couldn't help but laugh when she saw Cao Xu leaning against the bicycle teasing the group.

Cao Xu wasn't wearing his security guard uniform today, so in the eyes of these people, he was just an ordinary worker.

Therefore, these people didn't take Cao Xu seriously at all, and hearing Ding Qiunan's laugh only provoked them further.

This made them feel looked down upon, so the leader immediately turned his anger on Cao Xu.

He glared angrily at the guy next to him who was holding a brick.

"Brother, give me the money, I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong!"

Upon hearing the leader's order, the man with the brick immediately rushed towards Cao Xu with the brick in hand, and was right in front of him as he spoke.

He charged at Cao Xu with a brick in hand, getting closer and closer.

Just then, Cao Xu, who hadn't made a move yet, suddenly dodged the brick-wielding man's attack.

He quickly raised his foot and kicked the man with the brick behind his back in the buttocks. Caught off guard, the man flew forward.

"what……"

With a scream, the brick in the man's hand disappeared, and he collapsed to the ground.
