Married the Tough Guy After Transmigrating-Chapter 460: Severing Ties

Yang Zhanquan was almost immediately infuriated, cursing wildly into the phone, "You ungrateful wretch, I paid for your education, and now you act as if it’s your right.

We relied on each other to survive. Have you forgotten how I took care of you back then? You damned bastard, I should have strangled you then, thrown you out—ungrateful son of a bitch..."

Yang Zhanyou couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh as he listened to the incessant cursing: "The house was given to us by our parents, you have no right to kick me out.

My life was also given to me by our parents, if you kill me you’ll go to prison, are you still my brother?

I always felt that it wasn’t easy for the two of us brothers to depend on each other for survival, but I never expected I meant nothing to you. You can take the two hundred yuan if you want; if not, then forget about it." After saying his piece, Yang Zhanyou immediately hung up the phone.

After hanging up, he found a corner, buried his head in his hands and began to cry uncontrollably. His parents had died early, but by then he was already in high school, self-reliant.

Why did his big brother always feel like he owed them so much?

Village Chief Yang arrived at the hospital, intending to find his own brothers, but as soon as he stepped into the hospital, he saw a familiar figure squatting to one side. He quickly took a few steps forward and indeed, it was that kid Yang Zhanyou.

Thinking of the pregnant young woman,

Village Chief Yang’s mind swiftly concocted a scheme. He watched as Yang Zhanyou crouched in a corner smoking a cigarette, then he turned to leave.

Village Chief Yang followed carefully, and only after climbing the stairs and seeing the ward Yang Zhanyou entered did he turn to look for his own brothers.

Village Chief Yang was a stingy individual; even coming to visit the hospital, he showed up empty-handed.

Yang Zhanqi’s expression darkened immediately upon seeing this, and he coldly said to Village Chief Yang, "Look, all because of your mess, they got beaten up."

Village Chief Yang looked around the room at the ten or so people, each one either with a bruised face or lying in bed with a cast and a few with their arms bound with white cloth bandages.

Seeing their injuries, shock and disbelief covered Village Chief Yang’s face, "Zhanqi, are you sure all these people were beaten by the Xu Family?

You’re not joking with me, right? The Xu Family couldn’t even beat us when they were in our village, didn’t you claim your brothers were all skilled fighters, how come they got injured by the Xu Family?"

Yang Zhanqi never expected his own brother to doubt him, and, seething with anger, he stared at him furiously, "What are you implying, Old Yang? If your villagers could deal with those people, why did you need us to do it?

Are you afraid of going to jail, so you had us take action?

Damn, Old Yang, I was willing to risk prison to help you out, and you still doubt me. I must have been blind to even consider helping you."

Hearing that, Village Chief Yang frowned and was not pleased: "Zhanqi, why do you have to speak so unpleasantly? freewēbnoveℓ.com

What I said is the absolute truth. If someone from our village hadn’t been taken hostage, I would never have let the Xu Family leave.

And why you helped me, you know very well, don’t you just want to extort some money from them?

But since you claim that the Xu Family caused these injuries, let me tell you, the Xu Family is right here in this hospital. That family is very rich, having made a fortune from their greenhouse business. If you want..."

Upon hearing this, a vicious gleam flashed in Yang Zhanqi’s eyes. So many of his brothers had been injured, and medical expenses had cost them a lot.

A few yuan here, several there, but with so many brothers, they had already spent three to four hundred just for this trip to the hospital.

Village Chief Yang was shrewd; getting money out of him was far more difficult than from these people.

"Take me to them," said Yang Zhanqi urgently.

If they ran away later, it wouldn’t be easy to get the money.

Reporting to the police wasn’t an option; the local police knew what he did for a living and definitely wouldn’t help him collect money.

Village Chief Yang had many tricks up his sleeve and quietly said to Yang Zhanqi, "If you go directly to those people, they probably won’t give it to you. Didn’t you say there was a Super Strength Monster, what if they beat you up again!

Wait until night when everyone is asleep, quietly take the child, threaten them with the baby, and they’ll pay up."

Yang Zhanqi was somewhat hesitant, "Wouldn’t this be kidnapping? What if they call the police?"

Extorting money is one thing, but kidnapping changes the nature of the game entirely.

Yang Zhanqi’s job was to extort money, and he was good at it—practically every out-of-towner fell for his tricks.

Most people, scared of trouble and outnumbered, would just pay up directly.

But this family not only refused to pay but also fought back, costing them so much money.

Village Chief Yang shrugged his shoulders, "Well, you figure it out. You can try if you want, but I don’t think they’ll pay."

Yang Zhanqi hesitated, mainly because the kid had some tricks up his sleeve, and if it came to a fight, he might be outmatched.

But he still wanted to give it a try.

Seeing that Yang Zhanqi was really foolish enough to want to try, Village Chief Yang immediately warned him, "That family is not easy to talk to. If you go there and don’t get the money, you might just tip them off.

Then even if you wanted to kidnap ’em, it would be too late. Think it through properly."

Yang Zhanqi stopped in his tracks, looked at his brothers, and thought of the kid’s tactics. He immediately lost his nerve.

Village Chief Yang saw that he had taken the bait and continued to tempt him, "I’ve heard that the Xu Family is big in business.

They developed those greenhouse vegetables, so how could they not be raking in money?

And that pregnant woman, she’s out of office now, but before that, she was a department head in the county.

You know about marinated goods and fried snacks? She came up with those. Plus, she’s a designer at the textile factory, making a tidy sum each month.

There was this foreign exchange event where a lot of people said she made hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Her husband seems to be in business, too. They’re quite wealthy in their village."

Listening to this, Yang Zhanqi’s expression slowly turned to shock—hundreds of thousands, my God, he hadn’t even seen ten thousand yuan in his life, let alone hundreds of thousands.

If he really kidnapped their kid, surely he could demand one hundred thousand yuan.

At this thought, Yang Zhanqi’s heart raced with excitement.

If he had one hundred thousand yuan, why would he continue this hard life? He could just take the money and flee to a distant city where no one knew him.

Then he’d buy a house and wouldn’t have to worry about food or drink for the rest of his life.

"Okay, just like you said, I’ll make my move tonight," Yang Zhanqi said in a hushed, excited voice.

He couldn’t let his underlings know about this—otherwise, he wouldn’t get a penny.

He would act alone, and all the money would be his.

Village Chief Yang chuckled devilishly, delighted to see that Yang Zhanqi had taken the bait.

The Xu Family had the gall to beat up his child; he would see to it that the Xu Family had no children left.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Xu had bought some change of clothes, all loose-fitting to make it convenient for Xu Ying to nurse the baby.

She also bought some cloth to pad the baby’s bottom.

Huo Chen, carrying chicken soup and some toiletries, followed Mrs. Xu as they headed toward the hospital.
