Being frightened like this once was enough to make him unforgettable.
Men definitely don't want to go through this again.
...
"Tell Grandpa Mu and Grandma Tan so they don't have to worry too much."
"Yes, I will."
"Thank you, Xiao Xiao."
The man's face was full of gratitude, but the emotions in his eyes were a bit complicated.
The age difference between him and Xiao Xiao is a bit big, so even though they are neighbors, they don't have many interactions with each other.
Later he left home, and there was no contact between them at all.
The reason why he could remember the identity of the other party immediately was because the bullying incident that he was hit in made a deep impression on him, and also because this guy had a different temperament from ordinary brats since he was a child.
He doesn't look like a little devil in particular.
Especially not cute.
...
Unexpectedly, in the end, it was this person who had little contact with him who helped him.
He has been struggling in society for quite some time.
He could naturally see that this guy was helping him solely for the sake of his old man and his old lady.
Otherwise, this guy might not even look at him.
Who is to say that what happened to him can be regarded as his own fault in the final analysis.
...
It wasn't until the footsteps outside the door could no longer be heard that Meng Jixi spoke again, "Master Xiao, I'm going to call Brother Li from the bureau now to help me check his identity."
"sorry to bother you."
Xiao Xiao nodded and smiled.
...
"Why are you so polite?"
Meng Jixi waved his hand, "You have helped us several times."
"If it's your request, I don't think Dad will refuse Brother Li to do a little extra work."
...
After hanging up the phone, Meng Jixi made an "OK" gesture, "Okay, that's all."
"I will notify you as soon as possible when the investigation results are available, Master Xiao."
"Thanks."
The corners of Xiao Xiao's mouth curled up.
...
The next morning, Meng Jixi came to the teahouse again.
Sitting in the same box as yesterday, Xiao Xiao pushed a seven-percent full cup of tea in front of Meng Jixi.
After Meng Jixi took a sip of tea, Xiao Xiao asked, "Any results?"
...
"Um."
Meng Jixi put down the tea cup and raised his eyebrows, "That big brother is not difficult to check."
"but-"
...
Xiao Xiao felt something, "Is there any problem?"
...
"Yes."
Meng Jixi confirmed Xiao Xiao's guess, "He is a smart guy."
"Mutansong is not the first victim."
"He will investigate the target in advance, and then appear next to them as a savior and lend them money unconditionally."
"If they were successful and returned the money to him, he wouldn't do anything."
"But if he's like Mr. Mutansong yesterday, he will ask for a big sum."
"It won't make them unable to pay back, but it will make them lose everything."
"Does this count as being a human being and keeping a thin line?"
Meng Jixi shook his head, "Tsk, tsk, what a good plan."
...
"So, some people who know the situation will still borrow money from him to take a gamble."
"After all, the procedure for borrowing money from that big brother is simple and there is no interest. It is much better than borrowing money from banks and loan sharks."
"Of course, the premise is that you succeed."
"That elder brother also relied on this to win over many new business people."
"His business is booming."
"As for those who failed-"
Meng Jixi spread his hands, "It's just like being thrown into the quagmire and starting over."
"As for whether they can get up, it depends on their own ability."
...
"Some people want to cause trouble."
"But we can't make a fuss."
"They have no evidence."
"The police have no way to file a case."
"That person is also a big taxpayer and has a wide range of friends."
"Those who have been tricked can only admit defeat."
...
"However, if some people borrow money knowing that this will happen, they deserve it."
“Who can I blame for my lack of ability?”
"People who don't know the situation...actually, maybe they will still borrow money even if they know the situation, right?"
"Everyone has a gambler's mentality, especially those who want to start a business. They are ambitious and confident in themselves. Who would think that they will fail at the beginning?"
...
Meng Jixi chattered a lot. This was the first time he had seen such a guy.
Not a purely good guy, nor a completely bad guy.
All I can say is that he is a great businessman.
He is also a profiteer who makes people dislike him.
...
"Gulu~Gulu~"
I talked too much and my throat became dry.
Meng Jixi raised the cup and took several large sips of tea.
The slightly astringent taste made him frown a little.
"Master Xiao, what do you want to do?"
He put down the tea cup and asked curiously.
He intuitively felt that Master Xiao would not just let it go.
...
"I didn't think about what to do."
Xiao Xiao picked up the tea cup and took a sip, his expression was quite innocent.
"I am a good young man who abides by the law."
...
Meng Jixi:......
"Master Xiao, you are crossing the river and burning the bridge."
He was a little dissatisfied.
...
Xiao Xiao pushed the refreshments on the table in the direction of Meng Jixi and said, "Have a try."
"My tea snacks are very delicious."
Even monsters like to eat it.
...
Meng Jixi picked up the tea and took an angrily bite, then asked with some reluctance: "Can't you reveal a little bit?"
...
Xiao Xiao also took a piece of tea and was about to put it in his mouth. When he heard Meng Jixi's question, he raised his eyebrows slightly and paused, "What did you reveal?"
Seeing the other party's suspicious look of "pretend, you are still pretending", he couldn't help but smile and said, "I just want to talk to the other party."
"After all, Gumuxuan is Grandpa Mu's life-long effort."
"Losing it would be a huge blow to the old man."
...
Meng Jixi immediately had an expression on his face: "You still said you didn't know what to do?"
He absolutely did not believe that Master Xiao's so-called talk was really just a talk.
However, he is happy to see the results.
"Every injustice has its owner, and every debt has its owner. Since it is Mutansong's debt, it is natural for him to repay it himself."
"How can a son pay his debt to his father and treat himself like a three-year-old child?"
...
"Master Xiao, do you need my help?"
Meng Jixi was gearing up and showing great interest.
Xiao Xiao:......
He glanced at Meng Jixi and said, "No need."
"You can't help."
...
Meng Jixi:......
Even if it is the truth, but, "Master Xiao, you don't have to say the next sentence."
...
"Oh, really? I'll pay attention next time."
Xiao Xiao smiled a little carelessly.
...
Meng Jixi:......
"Why do I think what you said means you won't pay attention next time."
He muttered something lowly.
...
"You think too much."
Xiao Xiao's answer shocked Meng Jixi, "The ears are really sharp."
"Yeah, so stay away from me next time you want to say something bad about me."
"Otherwise I would have heard it."
...
Meng Jixi's face was a bit sarcastic, but he immediately realized, "I didn't say anything bad about you."
