Chapter 1395 They're just dogs, why would I feed them?
"Oh my, Mrs. Chen, you're here too? By the way, do you live upstairs too? Oh, don't worry, with me here, I'll definitely get you a good amount of money."
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhaodi's expression changed, and she threw down the exhibition cloth in her hand.
"Sir, do I know you? You said you wanted to get a good amount of money for our family, but I'm sorry, we can't accept it. We've been neighbors for over ten or twenty years. Whenever someone is in trouble, everyone helps each other. This friendship can't be measured in money."
"If you can add more money, then add it for all of us neighbors, don't just talk to me individually."
Kang Huai-ren's expression changed. He hadn't expected Huo Jia-li's mother to speak so forcefully. His face turned pale and then red, and suddenly he revealed a forced smile.
"Mrs. Chen has forgotten that I am Jiali's classmate. Alas, what a pity. If she hadn't offended Miss Qu back then, she would be a lawyer in a famous law firm like me, instead of doing menial tasks like serving tea and water in an unknown small law firm."
"Mrs. Chen, as Jiali's classmate, I have a piece of advice for you: if you're the first to sign this demolition agreement, I'll personally arrange to double your compensation. If you don't agree, then there's nothing I can do."
Kang Huai-ren raised his chin contemptuously, glanced at the neighbors, and took two steps back. The long-haired thugs in floral shirts then walked up to him in a very cooperative manner.
The leader of this gang was called Big Fool. He pulled out a watermelon knife from his waist, clapped it in his palm, and grinned as he spoke.
"You bunch of idiots, what's the point of having you... Oh dear."
He momentarily forgot and slapped the blade of the watermelon knife onto his palm, cutting a large gash. The neighbors all grimaced, recognizing this silly fellow; it seemed this wasn't the first time he'd caused such an accident.
Da Sha ran out, clutching his hands. He had a phobia of blood; the sight of blood would make him faint within five steps. Sure enough, everyone was counting.
"1, 2, 3... 5, 6, fall!"
There was a loud snap outside the door, and Big Fool's henchmen cheered. One of them spread his hands, while the others pulled out HK$100 notes from their pockets and placed them in his hand. Clearly, they had lost the bet.
The thugs who lost the bet cursed and went outside to help the simpleton up and find a place to bandage his wounds.
Kang Huai-ren was furious. These bastards had gone too far. Was this a time for playing around? He quickly shoved the guy who was collecting money. The guy then remembered and quickly stuffed the several hundred Hong Kong dollars into his pocket. He stepped forward and roared.
"Listen up, all of you! My name is Sha Qiang. Am I stupid or not? Look at me, I even dared to scheme against my own brother. You can just tell me if I'm stupid or not. Today I'm telling you, you must sign the demolition agreement. If you don't sign..."
A sinister voice came from outside, followed by a group of people walking in.
"It's fine if you don't sign. I've brought a bulldozer, and we'll start demolishing this tea restaurant!"
The speaker was a man in a pink suit, appearing to be in his early twenties. He was quite handsome, though somewhat effeminate. The neighbors recognized him; he was Lu Changdong, the only son of Lu Dawen, chairman of the Xianghe Group, and known as Prince Dong.
To be honest, the neighbors weren't really afraid of those thugs. Most of them were just there to cheer people on, smash tables and chairs, but the rest were just bluffing.
But this Crown Prince Dong and the men he brought were different. They all had fierce faces and menacing eyes. A real villain wouldn't scare you with words; a single glance was enough to make your soul fly away.
Kang Huai-ren hurriedly ran over and respectfully wiped the chair with his sleeve before speaking in a fawning tone.
"Brother Dong, what brings you here? This place is filthy, only lowlifes come here."
Crown Prince Dong gently slapped Kang Huai Ren's face with the back of his hand.
"You know how to talk, but your efficiency is terrible. My second uncle said that they have to sign this contract today no matter what. If they don't, every single person here will come in upright and leave lying down."
Kang Huai-ren nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, okay, whatever Brother Dong says is fine."
He turned his head and immediately changed his expression, shouting fiercely at his neighbors.
"Don't offer me a toast, or I'll make you drink the penalty cup. I'm telling you straight, you have to sign this today whether you like it or not."
Chen Dafu mustered his courage and stepped forward to speak.
"What are you trying to do? Hong Kong has laws, don't do anything reckless."
"law?"
Prince Dong sneered and waved his hand. A man covered in dragon and tiger tattoos rushed forward, swung his fist, and punched Doctor Chen in the stomach. Doctor Chen screamed and stumbled back two steps, knocking over a table and falling to the ground.
The neighbors were terrified. They huddled together, grabbing each other and backing away.
Just then, a silvery laugh came from outside the door. Immediately afterwards, the door of the tea restaurant opened, and two girls in school uniforms walked in. The two girls looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old and appeared to be twins. They were Huo Jiali's two younger sisters, Huo Jiatong and Huo Jiaying.
When they saw so many people standing in the restaurant, all of them looking fierce and menacing, they quickly stopped smiling and shut their mouths.
Upon seeing the twins, Prince Dong's eyes lit up. He waved his hand repeatedly, and his men quickly made way for him. Prince Dong put on a nonchalant smile.
"Little sister, don't be afraid, I'm a good guy!"
Chen Zhaodi's expression changed. She went back to the kitchen, grabbed a cleaver, and rushed out.
"I'm warning you, taking back the house is one thing, but if you dare to lay a finger on my daughter, I'll fight you to the death."
Crown Prince Dong's smile froze. He slowly turned his head, his face turning extremely cold.
"You think you can compete with me, you poor wretch? What do you have to offer? I'll give you a million today to buy your house, plus these two sisters. How about that? Pretty generous, right?"
Huo Jiatong and her sister quickly ran behind their mother, trembling with fear.
Chen Zhaodi was also afraid, but for her daughter's sake, she bravely glared at Prince Dong.
At this moment, two uniformed policemen pushed open the door and walked in. They were taken aback when they saw so many people. When they saw that it was Prince Dong, they quickly walked over with smiles on their faces.
Chen Zhaodi shouted loudly.
"Officer, this man is trying to abduct a woman..."
Crown Prince Dong gritted his teeth and grinned maliciously.
“In the whole of Mong Kok, who dares to meddle in my business, Prince East? The police are nothing but dogs. I keep them! Old woman, do you believe me? I can make these two dogs bite whoever they want.”
