"Call him?" Shen Qiang's face was swollen from being slapped, and he cried as he said, "Brother Hu, I, I really don't have my brother-in-law's phone number."

"No?" Tiger's eyes widened. "Are you kidding me?"

"Really not! He blocked me after we got divorced!" Shen Lu quickly chimed in.

Tiger frowned. He didn't actually want to get money through this phone call.

Mr. Zhou gave those instructions, which were clearly intended to torment this family, so how could he possibly give them any more money?

The reason he did this was simply to have some fun and watch the excitement.

"Fine, no phone, no phone, right?" Tiger thought for a moment, then he came up with a new idea.

He took his phone out of his pocket and found a number.

This number was sent to him by Qin Yue earlier. She said it was a friend of Mr. Zhou's from the past, named Chen Ting. She said he could contact her if he needed any assistance.

Tiger then made the call.

"Hello, is this Ms. Chen Ting? This is Ah Hu." His tone immediately became very polite.

On the other end of the phone, Chen Ting was in a coffee shop, leisurely enjoying her afternoon tea, when she received the call.

"What is it?" Her voice was indifferent.

"It's like this, Miss Chen, we're at Shen Qiang's house right now, and he and his family say they can't get in touch with Mr. Zhou. You see... could you offer us some 'help'?" Tiger spoke very carefully.

Chen Ting understood immediately after hearing this.

She knew this was Mr. Zhou's plan, and now the plan had begun.

"Help?" Chen Ting smiled and said, "Mr. Zhou and I are just ordinary friends. How could I possibly know his whereabouts?"

She paused for a moment, then added, "But... I do know that his parents recently moved to a new house. I heard it's a pretty nice place."

"Oh? What place is it?" Tiger asked cooperatively.

"I think it's called... 'Mirror Lake'."

After Chen Ting finished speaking, she added seemingly casually, "I heard from my friend that Mr. Zhou bought the best house outright in order to make his parents more comfortable. It cost... I think it was around 300 million yuan."

"What, three hundred million?!"

Tiger, even though he was faking it, the voice he shouted still sounded shocked because the number was just too big.

He deliberately turned on speakerphone.

In this rented room, everyone heard the phrase "three hundred million".

The three members of the Shen family, along with the dozen or so debt collectors, were all dumbfounded.

Three hundred million?

Just to buy a house?

What does this mean?

These people could never earn that much money in their entire lives, not even a fraction of it!

Shen Qiang and Shen Lu stopped fighting a long time ago.

They stared blankly at Tiger's phone, as if it could spit out gold.

Zhang Guifen, who had just been knocked unconscious, woke up at some point. When she heard "three hundred million," her eyes widened, and she struggled to get up from the ground.

"Three...three hundred million...are you telling the truth?" She snatched Tiger's phone and shouted into it.

Chen Ting, on the other end of the phone, was startled by the sudden voice, but she quickly realized who it was.

She gave a cold laugh and continued to provoke them.

"Yes, Auntie. It's nothing."

Chen Ting's tone was very Versailles-like: "Mr. Zhou said that this money is for his uncle and aunt's retirement, and they can spend it however they want. Oh, by the way, he also transferred 100 million yuan to his parents as pocket money."

"One...one hundred million? Just as pocket money?"

Zhang Guifen's mind completely exploded at this moment.

She felt like she could hardly breathe.

A villa worth 300 million!

A hundred million in pocket money!

These things... these things should all have belonged to her! They should all have belonged to her son!

She remembered the past, when Zhou Cheng was still a poor young man who only earned a few thousand yuan a month, and he was especially good to her.

At that time, she wanted to get a new phone, so Zhou Cheng bought it for her on installment using Alipay's Huabei service.

When her son wanted to buy a pair of designer sneakers, Zhou Cheng would save up and spend the money to buy them for him.

But now...

She feels terrible right now, filled with regret and jealousy, and she feels extremely uncomfortable.

"My money! All that money is mine!"

She suddenly went berserk, hitting her chest and crying loudly, "Zhou Cheng! You bastard! Give me back my money!"

The other people in the room were also shocked by the news.

The henchmen who were collecting debts looked at each other.

They suddenly realized how ridiculous it was that they were fighting and killing each other for a few hundred thousand yuan.

A small allowance for them is enough to support them for a lifetime.

Tiger cleared his throat and continued into the phone, "Ms. Chen, so... where exactly is that place called Mirror Lake? We... we'd like to go and see it, to broaden our horizons."

"It's right by East Lake. You can ask around yourself. Everyone in Jiangcheng knows it."

After Chen Ting finished speaking, she "kindly" added, "But I advise you not to go."

"Why?"

"Because that place has the tightest security in the entire Jiangcheng. Not even a fly could get in, let alone you. If you dare to cause trouble there and get your legs broken and thrown out, don't blame me for not warning you."

After Chen Ting finished speaking, she hung up the phone.

The room was unusually quiet.

Everyone's eyes were on the three people from the Shen family.

Especially Zhang Guifen.

The expression on her face changed many times in a very short period of time.

From shock to regret, then to jealousy, and finally, all these expressions turned into greed.

She scrambled to her feet, her eyes gleaming with madness.

"In Mirror Lake! By East Lake! Let's go find him now!"

She grabbed Shen Qiang and Shen Lu's arms with great force, "He's my son-in-law! He's made a fortune, so he should get half of it from our family! No! It should all be ours! Come on! Let's go get the money back!"

Shen Qiang and Shen Lu were also blinded by this enormous wealth.

"Yes! Go find him! He has to give us the money!"

"If he doesn't pay, we'll sue him! We'll sue him for abandoning us!"

This family seemed to have already seen a lot of money beckoning to them.

Tiger looked at the three people who had gone mad and shook his head.

He took out his phone and sent a text message to Qin Yue.

The text message read: Assistant Qin, the fish has taken the bait.

Then, he gave a wink to his brothers behind him.

"Let's go, let's catch up with them. Mr. Zhou said he wants to make sure they never have a moment's peace. Today is only the first day, we can't let them have any rest."

A group of burly debt collectors led the mentally unstable Shen family of three out of their rented house and headed towards East Lake.

They had no idea that in that place they could never enter, an even greater humiliation awaited them.

However, in the "Mirror Heart Hall" of "Mirror Lake".

Zhou Cheng just hung up on Qin Yue.

"Boss, they've already set off. Should we send the Canglang men ahead to prepare?"

"No need." Zhou Cheng looked out the window at the courtyard where Su Qingyao and Lin Wanwan were taking a walk with their mothers, and then said casually, "The security there is more than enough to deal with a few flies."

Zhou Cheng's idea was simple; he didn't just want to stop people from going outside and be done with it.

He wanted them to see what heaven was like, and then kick them back to hell.

This feeling of despair, like falling from the clouds, is the best punishment for them.
