"Ten, one hundred thousand..." Xia Zhi exclaimed, then calmed down, stood up and paced back and forth in the room,
He looked at the anxious Xia Zhi and didn't know what to say.
Xia Zhi suddenly stopped, closed her eyes, took a deep breath, then looked at Wei Lai and slowly said:
"Wei Lai, don't worry. I'll ask my parents during the day and I'll find a way!"
Wei Lai frowned slightly, feeling a little sorry for Xia Zhi. He quickly stood up, hugged Xia Zhi, and asked:
"Thank you Xia Zhi, aren't you afraid that I will lie to you?"
Xia Zhi patted Wei Lai on the back and said with a smile:
"Don't be afraid, why are you lying to me? Since I have already decided to be with you, why should I worry so much!"
Wei Lai hugged Xia Zhi even tighter, and tears flowed from the corners of his eyes unconsciously at this time.
Although Xia Zhi said she wanted to borrow money from her parents, she knew very well that her parents would never lend her money.
Because she lives in a rural area, her parents have a strong preference for boys over girls. When she finished high school and entered college, her parents wanted to marry her off.
After repeated requests from his elder brother and younger brother, Xia Zhi paid the tuition for the beginning of school, but her parents did not give her living expenses.
Later, in the first month, her brother gave her a thousand yuan. Later, during the summer solstice, she would go out to work part-time every week. Over the past few years,
She had saved more or less close to 10,000 yuan, and the white dress that cost 100 to 200 yuan was also the most expensive dress she had bought in the past few years.
Xia Zhi thought about it for several days and decided to borrow some money from his brother, because his brother's family was now relatively well-off. Even if he didn't borrow, it was possible to borrow some money from his parents in his name.
In the end, as expected, his brother loaned him thirty to forty thousand yuan. She lied to her brother that she was starting a business with a friend and needed some money.
Her brother also thinks she has a lot of ideas, and her parents will never care about her, so they hope she gets married as soon as possible.
Moreover, his brother never thought of lying to him or anything, because he had never lied to his family members, and he still knew his sister's character very well.
After Xia Zhi borrowed the money, she quickly called Wei Lai. Wei Lai was also very grateful. Xia Zhi was not afraid that Wei Lai would lie to her because she thought Wei Lai was her future.
Even though there was only half a day left before the time agreed with the casino, Wei Lai still hadn't collected the two hundred thousand. Including the money borrowed from Xia Zhi, the total he had was only sixty or seventy thousand.
He originally wanted to take Xia Zhi and leave the city, but he couldn't escape at all. Even if he used a knife to take out the positioning chip in his arm, it would be useless.
Because he still swallowed the light green pill, and now there is only the last pill left. If he doesn't go to them, he will be tortured to death by the side effects of this medicine.
That night, he slowly arrived at the Agate KTV. After explaining the situation to the foreman, he led him to the underground casino.
At this time, Zhang Zhitian was sitting in a booth not far away, smoking a cigarette, and seemed to be waiting for his arrival.
Wei Lai walked towards him slowly with his head lowered. When Zhang Zhitian saw it, he sneered and said, "Have you collected enough 200,000?"
Wei Lai lowered his head, his eyes evasive, and he took a few steps back, not knowing what to do.
"Brother, I only scraped together 40,000 yuan, see if you can..." Wei Lai said hesitantly.
Zhang Zhitian seemed to have expected it, and he said calmly: "Okay, this is the price of the medicine... Give it to me first, and we will pay back the 200,000 yuan slowly..."
Zhang Zhitian put the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray, then slowly stood up and walked towards Wei Lai.
Wei Lai unconsciously took a few steps back. At this time, two security guards walked up and sandwiched him in the middle.
Zhang Zhitian raised the corners of his mouth, grabbed his neck, looked left and right, and then said with a smile:
"You can sing in our bar. Starting today, you will sing continuously for ten years. You will work fifteen hours a day without rest. I think someone here will like your shamelessness..."
"Wha, what? Ten years?!" Wei Lai said in surprise with wide eyes.
"Why don't you want to?! Tsk, you reminded me again. I heard that you have a student girlfriend. After we went to investigate, we found that she is quite beautiful.
It’s okay if you don’t sing for ten years. How about using her to offset your five years? Let her come here to accompany you for drinks. I think the two of you can pay off this debt soon.
Maybe if she works hard, you can leave in three or four years." Zhang Zhitian said jokingly, and several of his subordinates around him also showed lewd smiles.
"Absolutely, absolutely not..." Wei Lai gritted his teeth, but before he finished speaking, he felt like there were thousands of ants crawling on his body, which made him kneel on the ground in discomfort.
Of course he knew it was the effect of the drug. When Zhang Zhitian saw his appearance, he started laughing and said:
"Hahaha, the medicine has taken effect, would you rather choose the first or the second, tell me!"
Wei Lai rolled on the ground for a long time, and finally couldn't bear it any longer. He crawled to Zhang Zhitian's side and cried:
"Brother, I choose the second option, please spare me, please give me medicine, give me medicine!"
Zhang Zhitian sneered, kicked him aside, then took out two green pills and said:
"Here, take it, I'll give you two first, and we'll talk about the rest tomorrow night. You can bring your student girlfriend over tomorrow, otherwise, haha..."
Wei Lai's eyes widened when he saw the pill, and he stuffed it into his mouth. After a while, he recovered and lay on the ground.
Seeing Zhang Zhitian and the others leaving, I couldn't help but burst into tears.
He stood up, slowly left the underground casino, and walked towards the Agate KTV on the first floor. At this time, he was in great pain, but in order to get the medicine and a few years of freedom,
He was willing to sacrifice his girlfriend in exchange for those few years of freedom. His feelings about Xia Zhi were completely different from how Xia Zhi felt about him.
If he has a better development in the future, he is willing to give up his girlfriend, let alone this situation.
He walked to the door of a private room, and at this moment, a disheveled woman with heavy makeup walked out of it...
