Chapter 816: Chapter 816: Fierce Gods and Evil Spirits

Someone couldn’t help but question: “Looks like the syphilis was also a lie?”

“You’re an idiot, if it’s not syphilis, it’s tuberculosis, and that disease is deadly too!”

“I think he deserved it. At such a young age, why not do something decent instead of coming here to the Brothel to swindle people. If you’re going to lie, why pretend to have syphilis? Now not only does he not have syphilis, he’s got something even scarier, tuberculosis. It’s heavenly retribution, truly deserved!”

The crowd was abuzz with various discussions.

Knowing he was doomed, Zhang San had no mood to care about these people; downtrodden, he grabbed the woman and tried to sneak away.

Nanny Sun would not let him go that easily; with a wave of her hand, several thugs encircled him, looking fierce and vicious.

Being a thug in the Brothel means having some abilities; otherwise, the Owner wouldn’t use the Silver to hire them for that. Apart from their routine work of guarding the place, their most important role was to handle troublemakers when disturbances occurred.

Seeing several strong men glaring menacingly at him, Zhang San’s legs went weak, and he almost fell to the ground while the woman quickly pulled him up and scolded, “You damn fool, scared now, are you? Why didn’t you behave yourself before? I told you to stand firm and be a decent person but you wouldn’t listen, now what do we do? You have accumulated so much debt, and now even your life is at stake.”

While scolding, the woman beat Zhang San’s back with her hands.

“Wife, I know I was wrong; please stop hitting me.” Zhang San, with a face full of despair, ever since knowing he had tuberculosis, felt that nothing else mattered, and his initial intentions of swindling Sunny Building vanished.

“If you were dead, all problems would be solved, but what about us, left as widows and orphans, with so much debt, how are we supposed to live?” The fierce woman, as she spoke, couldn’t help but burst into sadness and began wiping her tears.

“Wife, I truly know I’m wrong, I really do. I’m sorry to you and our children.” Zhang San cried bitterly.

Nanny Sun grew somewhat impatient: “Hey, hey, hey! Have you said enough? It’s time to properly settle our accounts.”

It’s not that she was heartless, but because Zhang San wasn’t a good person to start with. Often visiting the brothel without paying with Silver was one thing; given it was when Sunny Building had just arrived in the Capital, he didn’t care for the first few times, but not only did he show no gratitude, he even collaborated with Prince Pu to scam Sunny Building. Nanny Sun was not a Bodhisattva-hearted woman who would easily let him off.

Speaking of which, why did Prince Pu target the Sunny Building and even sent this scoundrel Zhang San to create a disturbance? Nanny Sun was very puzzled, and decided to send someone to investigate later.

Zhang San suddenly kneeled, kowtowing forcefully, crying and howling, “Nanny Sun, I beg you to be magnanimous and spare me and my family.”

Perhaps knowing his end was approaching and a newfound conscience, Zhang San, who never cared about his family’s life or death, suddenly began pleading on his knees for his family.

Indeed, as the saying goes, “on the brink of death, one’s words become kind.”

Nanny Sun scoffed and said, “Don’t make it look like I’m a bandit; what do you mean by ‘letting you go’? It’s only natural since ancient times that debts are to be repaid.”

“Nanny Sun, if you agree to let my family go, I am willing to reveal the mastermind behind this.”

“Oh!” Nanny Sun’s gaze casually swept through the crowd.

In the crowd, a skinny figure imperceptibly nodded.

“Okay! If you reveal who instigated you to cause trouble in the Sunny Building, the debts you accumulated here in the past, in front of everyone here, I can promise that they will be wiped clean.”
