Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 845

Chapter 845: Extortion
When Chen Bo heard his son calling him by his name, he became angry and said, “Chen Jiande, is this how you talk to your father? You unfilial son!”

Hearing his words, Gou Dan burst out laughing as if it was the funniest joke he ever heard and looked at him, “Father? Are you worthy?”

“Chen Bo, you should be grateful that half of my blood is yours. Otherwise, you wouldn’t even have a chance to say these words to me. You no longer deserve to become my father. So, don’t test my patience anymore, unless you want to end up like your little slut,” he added coldly.

Hearing this, Chen Bo was so angry that he could only stare at his son, “You!”

“If you want me to return your sons alive, prepare 20,000 yuan and leave it at the black market intersection at midnight. If you delay for half a day, I will cut off one of your son’s fingers. Tomorrow, if you fail to do as promised, I will make sure to send you their fingers,” Gou Dan said with a vicious smile.

As soon as these words came out, Chen Bo was shocked. He looked at his son as if this was the first time they were meeting.

“Jiande, they are your brothers! How can you treat them like this?” he asked in disbelief.

“Brother? I didn’t even know they existed until a few days ago! From my point of view, they are thieves who took everything from me. Why should I treat thieves as my brothers?” Gou Dan asked with a smile.

With that said, he walked to the bed and looked at Wei Zhiying. Seeing her lying there motionless, he clicked his tongue and said, “I heard that comatose people can still hear the sounds and voices around them. I wonder if your little slut heard everything we said.”

“What would you do if she found out you were already married to my mother when you married her back then and sued you for polygamy? You would have to spend a few years in jail. When you get out, not only will you lose your bright future, you won’t even be able to find a job,” Gou Dan said as he looked at Chen Bo with a sneer.

After saying that, he left the ward without looking back.

When he was alone, Chen Bo looked at Wei Zhiying thoughtfully. Although he rarely returned to Xie village and interacted with his sons, he knew that his eldest son was stupid. He couldn’t possibly know such a thing. Therefore, he must have been bluffing just now.

Thinking of this, he felt relieved and went to notify the nurse to take care of his wife. He needs to go back and prepare the money.

Since he couldn’t let anyone know, he had to spend his personal savings. Fortunately, he has made a lot of money over the years. He should have enough money to redeem Mingze and Yuze.

After he left the hospital, Gou Dan went to a state-owned restaurant to buy some food. Even though he could starve those two bastards to death, he and his mother needed to eat so they have the strength to escape after they get the money.

At the same time, in Xie Village, Houzi was collecting firewood at the foot of the mountain and saw Lu Cheng. Seeing him, he walked over and said, “Brother Cheng, what a coincidence. Are you here to collect firewood too?”

Lu Cheng was shocked when he saw him in this place and asked, “Brother Houzi, what are you doing here?”

“My uncle moved to Xie village a few days ago, and I’m here to help them settle in. Please help them more in the future,” Houzi said with a smile

Thinking of what his wife said a few days ago, Lu Cheng asked, “Is your uncle’s name Su Lide?”

“Yes. Brother Cheng, do you know my uncle?” asked Houzi.

Lu Cheng shook his head and said, “I heard a family of four moved in a few days ago. I didn’t expect them to become your family.”

After speaking, he asked, “By the way, I’ve heard what happened to people in the black market. Are you okay?”

“Brother Cheng, we escaped the government’s operation. While we are currently unable to operate, we will be able to continue once this passes,” Houzi whispered.

“Since we met, I wanted to discuss something with you,” he added.

Lu Cheng was taken aback by his words. Apart from a few trips to the black market to buy things from Houzi, the two of them had no interaction at all.

Feeling a little curious, he asked, “Brother Houzi, what do you want to discuss with me?”

“This is about your money. It’s been almost seven years and you haven’t come to get it,” Houzi said in a low voice.

Hearing this, Lu Cheng frowned and asked, “Brother Houzi, are you talking about the money I lent you eight years ago? Didn’t you return it to me a long time ago? You even pay me back with interest.”

Houzi was stunned when he heard this and asked, “Brother Cheng, didn’t Bajie tell you what the money was?”

Recalling the time when a young man came to see him in the middle of the night and gave him money, he shook his head and said, “He only told me that you asked him to give me the money.”

After hearing this, Houzi finally understood why Lu Cheng never came to get his shares.

The first time they met in the mountains, he was severely injured during his mission. Lu Cheng found him and brought him to Doctor Xie’s house to treat his wounds and gave him some money to buy medicine and food.

Although the amount is only 50 yuan, it is the capital of his business. At that time, he was only 19 years old and Lu Cheng was only 15 years old.
