A moment later...

Chen Anni's expression suddenly turned extremely awkward.

She shifted slightly, a little awkwardly, in Cao Kun's arms.

"Boss..." she said, her eyes lowered and her voice barely audible.

"Huh?" Cao Kun turned his head and looked at her, puzzled.

"Could you... could you please stop touching me...?"

Her face flushed slightly, and she bit her moist red lips tightly, protesting softly.

"Huh? Oh...sorry, it's a habit."

Cao Kun then realized what was happening and quickly withdrew his hand.

He glanced down at her slender waist, his eyes revealing an undisguised lingering desire.

Chen Anni followed his gaze.

She blushed instantly, so ashamed she wanted to disappear into the ground.

Cao Kun chuckled lightly, seemingly unconcerned.

He moved closer without any hesitation, looking down at her beautiful yet flustered appearance.

He looked quite pleased.

"What are you going to do?"

Chen Anni felt like she was going crazy.

Just as Chen Anni was feeling ashamed and indignant, she was about to die.

Batel's rough voice came from behind.

"Boss, everything has been clarified."

The two quickly stood up.

Batel, as if carrying a chick, grabbed the black man by the back of the neck with one hand and dragged him over with long strides.

Blackie was completely limp and mangled.

He could only stagger along, following Batel's steps.

Looking at the black man's face again, he was no longer recognizable as human.

Blood and foam kept oozing from the corners of his mouth, and more than half of his teeth had been knocked out. He looked extremely miserable.

The sight of this horrific scene made Chen Anni's eyelids twitch, and she was secretly horrified.

"What exactly is the situation?" Cao Kun asked casually.

With a casual flick of his wrist, Battelle tossed the black man to the ground.

Blackie immediately rolled like a gourd all the way to Cao Kun's feet.

Batel, looking down at him, coldly commanded:

"Repeat everything you just said inside to the boss, word for word!"

The black man struggled to lift his head, frantically begging for mercy incoherently:

"Grandpa, stop hitting me! Stop hitting me! I'll tell you everything!"

His current miserable appearance is a stark contrast to his arrogant demeanor just moments ago.

Seeing this, Chen Anni couldn't help but shrink closer into Cao Kun's arms, a hint of reluctance flashing in her eyes.

Cao Kun chuckled and reached out to hug Chen Anni tightly.

After all, she's a girl, so it's normal for her to feel uncomfortable when she suddenly sees such a cruel scene.

Blackie knelt straight down at Chen Anni's feet.

He began to recount the whole story in trembling voice.

"Miss Chen, this gentleman really has nothing to do with me!"

This was all arranged by Boss Wu!

I'm just someone who runs errands for him!

"Wu Jiancai?" Chen Anni frowned upon hearing this.

He said, somewhat incredulously:

"What nonsense are you talking about? He's my friend!"

The black man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and cried out in despair:

"Miss Chen, look at me now, why would I lie to you?"

"It's that bastard Wu Jiancai who's interested in you."

That's why we're here to set you up.

He originally planned to wait until you couldn't pay back the money.

We'll go to your doorstep to collect the debt.

Then he stepped in and played the good guy to pay off your debts.

That way, I can naturally become your boyfriend.

Chen Anni was instantly struck dumb.

This was the second time she had felt betrayed by a friend.

She asked incredulously, "Was all of this planned by Wu Jiancai?"

"It's him! What kind of plan could our pig-brains possibly come up with?!"

Blackie decided to go all out and burst into tears, saying:

"Actually, according to our initial plan,

You are burdened with millions in debt.

Under normal circumstances, it's absolutely impossible to repay.

Who knew you'd be so lucky?

He actually found a high-paying job.

They really paid back the money!

"It looks like you're about to slip out of my control."

Wu Jiancai gave me a death order.

I'll do whatever it takes to make sure you can't pay back the money.

I was forced into this situation, which is why I secretly modified the loan agreement.

The black man swallowed a mouthful of blood and continued to confess:

"You've been living in Fuli Garden all this time."

Security there is extremely tight; my men can't get in at all.

Wu Jiancai panicked, so I had no choice but to take some people to find your parents...

I also showed them the altered fake contract.

"The old lady loves her daughter dearly, and when she heard that you owed so much money..."

In their haste and panic, they didn't carefully check the contract and were easily fooled by us.

The elderly couple worked at the factory during the day.

In the evening, I even pushed a small cart to the night market to make fried rice with eggs.

They don't pack up and go home until 3 a.m. every day.

I just want to earn a few more hard-earned coins.

"I'll help you pay off this debt..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Anni completely broke down.

"You beasts! Are you even human?!"

Her eyes were red and swollen as she pointed at the black man and began to curse him.

She truly had no idea that her parents had endured so much injustice behind her back.

She always thought that as long as she could repay the money on time, everything would gradually get better.

Repaying debts is justified.

She was willing to accept even higher interest rates.

Who can say they were blind back then?

She never imagined that she would be used as prey!

I ended up with this huge debt because I trusted my best friend's sweet talk.

I thought that as long as I worked hard and slowly paid back the money, I could make up for my past foolishness.

But she never expected that the mistake she made would ultimately implicate her parents who loved her the most.

Thinking of my elderly parents working hard on the streets late at night for my sake.

Chen Anni felt as if her heart was being cut by a knife.

She couldn't hold back any longer and collapsed into Cao Kun's arms.

She buried her head in his chest and began to sob.

"Boss... I've really let my parents down..."

Chen Anni's voice was muffled, and tears quickly soaked Cao Kun's chest.

She choked up as she said:

"I've always been their pride since I was little, they love me so much."

I was tricked into quitting my job at school to start my own business.

There is clearly only one house in the family.

But they did it to support my dream.

Without hesitation, he mortgaged the house to the bank.

result……"

Even so, my parents never blamed me a single word.

It just means I need to be more careful when interacting with people in the future.

I originally thought that as long as I slowly paid off my debts,

This will allow parents to enjoy their later years in peace and live a good life.

But I never expected... I still dragged them down with me...

Cao Kun listened quietly to her sobs, a hint of pity flashing in his eyes.

He reached out and gently patted her trembling back, comforting her softly:

"Alright, don't worry, leave the rest to me."

Chen Anni raised her tear-streaked face and looked at him with red eyes.

He asked timidly, "Boss, should we call the police?"
