Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

Lin Jinde's eyes darted around, and in that instant, he seemed to have another idea.

Gambling debts are not protected by law; if he can avoid paying them, why would he want to?

80 yuan! After paying it back, he'll have nothing left, and he'll probably never be able to recover.

The reason he brought people home to get the money was because he was afraid of these thugs.

They are truly ruthless and unreasonable.

If he doesn't pay, he really will be chopped up.

But now that the eldest sister has taken them all down, the immediate crisis is over, so who cares about paying back the money?

Once they leave this time, it won't be so easy for them to find me again.

If things don't work out, I can just close the shop, take the 70 yuan in my account, and try my luck in another city to start over.

Anyway, it wouldn't cost more than 10 yuan to take over a run-down shop, and he didn't have any fixed assets.

Surely these scoundrels can't go to other cities to ask him for money, can they?

Moreover, he couldn't hide his gambling debts any longer, so how could he face his relatives in the county town afterward?

Rather than that, it would be better to start anew in another city.

"Sister, sister, you're amazing! They forced me to gamble. I didn't want to gamble at all! That white-haired guy insisted on lending me money. I got scammed by them, sister! You have to stand up for me!"

Lin Jinde spoke with great grievance, as if it were truly the case.

"Damn it, Lin Jinde, say that again, or I'll cripple you!" The white-haired youth covered his groin with one hand and pointed angrily at Lin Jinde with the other.

They've gone too far! Lin Jinde actually dared to say that at this point.

Are you really not afraid of them anymore?

Does he think that with this woman backing him up, he'll be fine? That he can just default on his debts?

That's incredibly naive of you.

Ye's mother did not use excessive force or vicious moves, which can be considered as holding back.

After all, she couldn't really do anything to hurt anyone in broad daylight; this was her first time fighting.

So although those men fell to the ground, they were not seriously injured and could still barely maintain their mobility.

"Lin Jinde, you've got guts! I advise you to hand over the money today, or no one can change your mind!"

A man struggled to his feet and glared fiercely at Lin Jinde.

Lin Jinde was somewhat intimidated by the stares, so he used both hands and feet to crawl directly behind Ye's mother, treating her as his last lifeline.

"Sister, hurry up and get them all sorted out!" Lin Jinde urged.

How could Ye's mother not see through this underhanded behavior?

Mother Ye glanced at the group of men demanding repayment: "My sister has made it very clear: go find whoever owes you money!"

The white-haired youth gritted his teeth, but facing this somewhat formidable aunt, he couldn't come up with a better idea for the time being.

"Lin Jinde, if you know what's good for you, grab your wife's phone and come with us. I can let bygones be bygones for your nonsense!" The white-haired youth said coldly to Lin Jinde.

Lin Jinde instinctively shuddered, clearly showing his instinctive fear of the white-haired youth.

They probably suffered a lot at his hands and have developed psychological trauma from it.

"You guys go ahead, my older sister is here today, I need to keep her company, let's talk about it another day!" Lin Jinde said with a slightly firm tone.

The white-haired youth narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a dangerous expression: "Have you thought this through? Do you think your older sister can stay here every day? She can't hide forever. If you don't come with us today, you'll face the consequences!"

"Hmph, you have no choice but to leave!" Several men surrounded them.

Mother Ye kicked the first person away, yelling, "Get out of here! Otherwise, when the enforcement team arrives, you won't be able to leave even if you want to!"

The remaining people looked at each other and stopped in their tracks.

That kicking power... he could send someone flying with a casual kick... how much force does that take?

Even if they get into position and kick with all their might, they can't achieve this effect.

Could this woman be a professional boxer?

Seeing that the others dared not make any rash moves, Lin Jinde's courage grew even stronger.

"Get out of here! You've made so much money off me, you should have made enough. Let's settle our accounts. Otherwise, I'll report you to the law enforcement team. Anyway, I have nothing left now, so let's fight to the death."

The white-haired youth pointed at Lin Jinde: "Good, good, good, I hope you remember what I said today, and don't become a spineless coward again after falling into my hands!"

"Let's go!"

The white-haired youth gave a shout, then covered his groin and awkwardly boarded the bread cart.

The others glared at Lin Jinde fiercely before getting into the car as well.

Firstly, they were afraid of Ye's mother, and secondly, they were afraid of the law enforcement team.

So let's retreat now, and then launch a counterattack. They don't believe they can't deal with a gambler.

After everyone left, Lin Jinde breathed a sigh of relief. He was sweating a little, which showed that it hadn't been easy just now.

Fortune favors the bold, and this saved 80 yuan.

Lin Jinde looked at his aunt sincerely and said, "Darling, I was wrong. I promise it won't happen again. Please forgive me this time. If it happens again, I'm not human!"

My aunt snorted coldly and turned her head away, ignoring him, her face full of determination.

"Please forgive me one last time for Xiao Kun's sake. You don't want Xiao Kun to become a child from a single-parent family, do you?"

Lin Jinde once again resorted to his trump card, using the children as a pretext.

It's often said that children are a woman's last weakness, and that's certainly true.

My aunt's resolute attitude softened slightly.

Seeing this, Lin Jinde continued, "Don't be angry with me. Just watch how I behave later. You should go pack your things first. I'll go pick up Xiao Kun. We'll go to Lucheng and start over, away from this troublesome place. 70 yuan should be enough for us to establish ourselves in Lucheng!"

My aunt finally spoke up: "If you want to go, go yourself. I'm not going!"

Lin Jinde looked at Ye's mother: "Elder sister, please help me persuade her. I really know I was wrong. You saw those people just now. They are unscrupulous and will definitely not let this go. Who knows how they will retaliate against us later? We can't stay here any longer. They might come knocking on our door again tonight, so we must leave the county!"

Ye's mother really wanted to beat Lin Jinde up. If he hadn't gambled away such a huge hole, why would things have come to this?

But what's done is done, and there's no point in saying anything more.

She knew her younger sister's personality; divorce was not an option for the time being.

Xiao Kun, who is in elementary school, is her weakness. She herself is a rather indecisive person and tends to be subservient to her husband after marriage.

If Lin Jinde were to yield a few more times, her resolute heart would begin to waver.

Even if not for herself, she wouldn't have divorced so easily for the sake of her child.

Especially now that Lin Jinde has proposed a new way out, starting over in Xiamen is not out of the question.

Since they've already sold the house and still have 70 yuan left, they have a way out, so divorce is even less likely in the short term.

Mother Ye looked at her aunt and said, "You've thought this through carefully. I support your decision!"
