Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

49: Chapter 49 Speak and Tease 49: Chapter 49 Speak and Tease As soon as Lao Lai let go, An Ping turned and dived into the crowd.

“You little brat, lost money and still want to run!” Lao Lai got annoyed, stood up, and grabbed him by his clothes, kicking An Ping.

“You gonna run again?

You run and I’ll have someone beat you up, you believe that?”

No sooner had his words fallen than several men stepped out of the crowd, ready to deal with An Ping.

“Brother Yufeng…

save me!” At this moment, An Ping could only plead with Bai Yufeng for help.

Bai Yufeng saw things were turning bad and took off running, “An Ping, hold on.

I’ll go back and get you money!”

An Ping’s heart turned cold by half, his cousin actually just ran away like that.

Seeing so many people approaching to hit him, An Ping panicked completely, “Big brother, Big brother, can’t I take off my clothes to settle this?”

He was just about to undress when he heard a loud shout: “An Ping!”

Immediately after, An Hao broke through the crowd and arrived in front of him with all her might.

“Sister…”

An Hao looked at him with a pained expression.

An Ping hung his head in embarrassment, expecting An Hao to scold him harshly, but to his surprise she took his hand and led him out, “Come on, come home with me!”

An Ping was worried about how to leave, and An Hao’s arrival was just in time to break the siege.

However, now the problem was how the two of them were going to get away.

“Stop right there!

You think you can just walk away after owing money?” Lao Lai stood up, blocking An Hao’s path, “Who are you to him?”

“I’m his sister.” An Hao lifted her head to look at Lao Lai, not even catching her breath, “Big brother, I heard everything from outside, my brother truly has no money, or else he wouldn’t have owed the debt!

I came in a hurry today and didn’t bring any money either, so I can’t give it to you!

Look, he’s still a kid, he was just curious and gambled a couple of times and lost his money, could you please let him off this once?”

An Hao spoke nicely to him.

People like him were feared by everyone within miles, and it’s best not to provoke them if possible.

Her goal was to take An Ping away, everything else was secondary!

Lao Lai, looking at An Hao who was pretty and had a soft, pleasant voice, wanted to give her a hard time just to keep her around a bit longer, “Sister, this isn’t your brother’s fault!

Debts must be paid; who let him lose at gambling!

Either let him take that shirt off, or you come up with a way to exchange it for him!

Or,” he pointed at his own face, “a kiss on your brother’s cheek will do too!”

“What the fuck are you saying, Lao Lai!” An Ping was instantly enraged upon hearing Lao Lai joking with his sister.

“Shut your mouth!” An Hao turned her head and glowered at An Ping, “Do you think we don’t have enough trouble already?”

An Ping sheepishly shut his mouth.

An Hao turned back around, standing tall and looking at him fearlessly, “If you’re going to say that, then I don’t like to hear it!

All the people here are villagers from our home area!

Everyone’s watching with their eyes open.

If you really bully me, a young girl, I’m sure the crowd won’t just stand by!

Besides, there are many people from our village under the stage!”

“Are you trying to intimidate me?” Lao Lai, with a ruffian look, smiled at An Hao.

“I’m not trying to intimidate you!” An Hao hardened her face, staring into his eyes and said, word by word, “What you’re doing today is organizing gambling.

That’s illegal!

If you insist on getting that money back today, then let’s find your village’s party secretary while everyone’s here.

Or we could go to the police station and report that you’re running a gambling den here, luring kids to gamble.

What kind of crime is that?”

Lao Lai’s face changed upon hearing this, his eyes bulging out as he threatened her, “You want to report me?

You, girl, have quite the nerve!

If you dare report, I will make sure you and your brother don’t leave this village today.”
