Help! My hunky roommate is begging me to touch his abs!

Early the next morning.

Jin Bao'er took two people and a few policemen with her and went directly to her second uncle's house.

Jin Bao'er kicked open his old, dilapidated door without any hesitation.

The door slammed against the wall with a loud bang, sending dust flying from the debris in the yard.

The yard was full of clutter, just like it was 5 years ago, or even more dilapidated and dirty than it was 5 years ago, with a musty smell hitting my nose.

Hearing the deafening noise, the people inside the house rushed out in a panic and saw the police and a group of people with cold, stern faces in the yard.

He was stunned, his face turned pale instantly, and his legs trembled.

"You're my cousin, right? Quickly call your parents out; we're here to collect my parents' compensation!"

Jin Bao'er crossed her arms, stood with her back straight, exuding an imposing aura, but her eyes were devoid of any warmth.

Zhao Yuheng stood close to Jin Bao'er with his hands behind his back.

His broad shoulders and wide waist gave off an imposing aura that kept strangers at bay.

His taut jawline was cold and hard, and his eyes were intimidating, making him look like a bodyguard with explosive combat power. No one dared to take a step forward.

Upon seeing this, my cousin was so frightened he nearly lost his mind and ran back in a panic.

They dragged and pulled their second uncle and aunt out of their sleep.

"Who is it? Coming here so early in the morning to yell for your life?"

My second aunt, her voice hoarse and cursing, shuffled downstairs in her slippers, her hair a mess.

But seeing the police officers in the courtyard and Zhao Yuheng's cold gaze, the voice abruptly stopped.

His face turned ashen instantly, and his legs went weak, almost causing him to collapse to the ground.

Even the second uncle, who came out sleepily behind them, was about to explode, but when faced with this scene, all his anger instantly subsided.

He hastily forced a fawning smile, rubbing his hands together as he tried to strike up a conversation.

Jin Bao'er completely ignored him, walking straight past the two of them into the house, coldly declaring:

"I'm here to collect my parents' 100,000 yuan compensation, and while I'm at it, to see my grandmother."

Upon hearing this, the second uncle and aunt turned deathly pale, exchanged a flustered glance, and stammered as they tried to stop him.

Zhao Yuheng took half a step forward, and with a powerful swing of his strong arm, he forced his second uncle back three steps.

He stumbled and crashed into a pile of debris, wincing in pain, and no one dared to stop him anymore.

Grandma, leaning on her cane, slowly walked out of the inner room.

Upon seeing this scene, he first panicked, then quickly adopted the airs of an elder, and reprimanded in a trembling voice:

"Gan Jinbao! Are you trying to defy the heavens? Bringing outsiders to cause trouble in our home!"

Jin Bao'er turned around abruptly, her eyes icy cold.

Years of pent-up anger erupted, each word piercing the heart:

"Defying Heaven? You are utterly heartless! Grandma, put your hand on your heart and tell me, did you embezzle the 100,000 yuan compensation money after my parents passed away?"

"They're taking my parents' hard-earned money to let your precious son enjoy a life of luxury and your grandson squander it."

"Back then, you watched helplessly as my second uncle and aunt abused me, why didn't you feel any remorse?"

"You're even more ruthless. You treated your aunt like a cash cow, using her dowry money to fill your son's debts, and forcibly sold her to her husband's family to suffer."

"You've ruined your aunt's life! She used her savings to pay for your medical treatment, and you turn around and curse her. Do you even deserve to be an elder?"

"From now on, don't go looking for your aunt anymore. She has done everything she could; you have no right to be a burden to her in the slightest!"

The words of abuse made the old woman tremble all over, her cane thumping on the ground, and she was speechless, unable to utter a single word in rebuttal.

His cloudy eyes were filled with guilt.

My second uncle and aunt were so anxious they were jumping up and down, but when the police glanced at them, they didn't even dare to breathe.

"The 100,000 yuan compensation must be returned to me today, not a penny less!"

Jin Bao'er's sharp gaze swept over her second uncle and aunt, her tone leaving no room for negotiation.

Uncle immediately put on a mournful face, waved his hands, and cried poverty: "Jinbao, where would we get 100,000? It's all been spent over the years, the family is dirt poor, we really can't afford it!"

My second aunt also joined in, slapping her thigh and wailing, "We really have no money! You're forcing us to our deaths!"

Zhao Yuheng stepped forward, his voice as cold as ice: "The compensation money is money lost on lives, and you have illegally seized it for so many years. At the highest bank interest rate, the principal and interest alone would amount to more than 100,000."

"Either you raise the money now, or the police will take you back to the station to file a case and check if your youngest son used this money for the down payment on his wedding house."

That hit the nail on the head.

The eldest son is now unemployed and lives off his parents.

The youngest son is a civil servant, and he bought his wedding house in the county town.

The down payment was originally intended for the survivor's pension; if the case is actually filed, the youngest son's job will be ruined!

My second uncle and aunt panicked instantly and hurriedly changed their tune: "Yes, yes, yes! We'll help, we'll help right away!"

The couple stumbled into the house, rummaging through drawers and cabinets looking for money. They searched everywhere they could hide it: under cabinets, under the bed, in the cracks in the walls.

My aunt clutched a wad of crumpled coins, each bill she took out felt like a piece of her own flesh being ripped out, and she gasped for breath with heartache.

The second uncle gritted his teeth and emptied his pockets of cigarette and alcohol money, then turned to snatch the old lady's secret stash of money.

The old lady held onto the box tightly and refused to let go, which made the second uncle anxious.

They snatched it away, and all the retirement money inside was taken. The old lady immediately sat on the ground, wailing and crying.

My second uncle and aunt were heartbroken as they watched their money dwindle, their faces contorted with distress. They managed to scrape together only two thousand yuan in half a day.

Auntie handed over the money, her voice choked with sobs, "Jinbao, that's all I have, really none left!"

Jin Bao'er didn't even glance at it, and asked the police to produce the certificate of pension payment from back then:

"Either pay the full amount, or we'll take legal action now. Misappropriating other people's property can result in fines and detention at best, and imprisonment at worst. You'll lose your son's job and your house."

The second uncle was shocked to hear that it would implicate his son, who was already working in the city.

Terrified, she kicked her second aunt hard, gritted her teeth, and stomped her feet to call her relatives to borrow money.

He was verbally abused on the phone and extorted for exorbitant interest by his relatives.

My aunt listened from the side and burst into tears, her whole body trembling with heartache.

After much difficulty, they managed to borrow 40,000 yuan. The couple pooled their savings and the borrowed money together, barely managing to scrape together 60,000 yuan.

Some of it was transferred via mobile phone.

After transferring the money, both of their hands were shaking; this 60,000 yuan was all their savings.

They were completely drained of their savings and suffered a significant financial loss.

"We're still short 40,000!"

Jin Bao'er stood her ground, her eyes cold and sharp. "If we can't gather everyone today, I'm not leaving. The police are here too, so let's just wait it out."

My second uncle and aunt lay paralyzed on the ground, their faces ashen.

Seeing this, Jin Bao'er added coldly, "The remaining 40,000, write an IOU and pay it back within two months, with interest calculated at one percent. If you don't pay by the due date..."

"I'll sue you directly, and then your house will have to be mortgaged to pay off your debts!"

Second Uncle still wanted to bargain, but Zhao Yuheng stepped forward.

He grabbed his shoulder with a large hand, the force so strong that his second uncle grimaced in pain and broke out in a cold sweat.

"Either write it down, or go to court right now."

Zhao Yuheng's tone was extremely oppressive, making it hard for the second uncle to breathe. He had no choice but to obediently comply.

He wrote the IOU with trembling hands, his fingertips shaking as he pressed his fingerprint on it, each stroke feeling like tearing out his own flesh.

Looking at the empty money box and IOUs, the second aunt cried her heart out, feeling utterly hopeless about the future.

Jin Bao'er took the 2000 yuan in change and the IOU, and threw them directly to Zhao Yuheng beside her without even counting them.

Zhao Yuheng caught it steadily.

Jin Bao'er glanced one last time at her second uncle's family, who were wailing and crying, and the old lady who was sprawled on the ground groaning, and warned in a cold voice:

"Remember, I'll come back in two months to collect the remaining money. You'll be responsible for any consequences if you're short a penny."

"And another thing, if you dare cause trouble for my aunt again, next time I'll come and do more than just ask for money!"

"Oh, right, and about the 5 yuan you extorted from the county magistrate, he will come to you to collect it himself. If you go around asking for money in my name, you will be the ones to pay it back. I will not pay you back a single penny."

After saying that, he turned and left. Zhao Yuheng held his hand tightly, and the two walked out of the dilapidated courtyard side by side.

Behind me were my second uncle's family's heart-wrenching cries and curses.

Jin Bao'er felt a wave of relief wash over her after years of pent-up frustration.

The sunlight shone brightly on the two of them, dispelling all the gloom. Zhao Yuheng looked down at him, his tone gentle.

Finally, the couple thanked the police officers who came and then went home.
