Chapter 578: Chapter 577: Awesome, My Sister

"What’s going on?!" Liu Quanyou was immediately stunned when he saw the situation, so scared that he almost jumped into Wang Hao’s arms. "Boss, what are you doing? Let’s talk this out! Please, don’t be rash!"

"Talk it out?!" The previously pleasant boss looked like a completely different person now, his spittle almost spraying onto Wang Hao’s face. "I’ve finally met someone I can talk to, and I’m not letting you get away today! Tell me, what is your relationship with Yu Fang?!"

What relationship? Looking at this situation, it seems like this boss has a vendetta against Yu Fang and President Yu...

"We... we actually don’t have much of a relationship with her," Liu Quanyou said. "She’s just a business partner who owes us money, and we’re here to collect it."

"Is that so? Well, that makes things easier," the restaurant owner sneered coldly. "Since you are her partners, why don’t you settle the fees they previously owed? A total of fifty-six thousand, not a penny less!"

Hearing this, Liu Quanyou was dumbfounded!

What’s happening? How can he suddenly demand money from us? Is this a robbery?!

"I’m telling you, this is illegal!" Liu Quanyou trembled as he shouted. "You’re robbing a legal citizen in broad daylight!"

"Robbery? You actually got it right!" The owner gestured with a kitchen knife that the chef handed him. "My shop barely makes any profit, Yu Fang has owed me fifty-six thousand for nearly three years now and hasn’t paid. If I don’t get it, I can’t go on living anyway. Might as well go down together!"

This is gearing up for a fight!

Wang Hao hurriedly tried to break it up from the side. "Boss, look, we are victims too. She owes our company a fair amount of money and hasn’t paid it back, and we aren’t even close with her!"

The two sides were at a standoff.

About half a minute later...

"Sigh!" The restaurant owner looked at Wang Hao, then at Liu Quanyou, and sighed angrily. Then, he waved his hand, sending everyone back to their seats, and slumped down saying, "What are we going to do..."

Even if Wang Hao and Liu Quanyou were slow, they now understood that the restaurant owner was just infuriated, so they quickly chimed in, "Boss, what exactly happened? Can you tell us?"

The restaurant owner lit a cigarette, called for a round of beers and opened them all, then said, "Since we’ve come this far, let’s talk while we drink."

He filled up glasses for the three of them, and after clinking glasses and drinking in one go, the restaurant owner began to lament his woes.

"Our restaurant, you see, used to do pretty well," the owner sighed deeply. "Back then, I thought doing business was all about making good connections. Yu Fang used to come here to eat often, and over time we got to know each other."

"And after you became acquainted, she started racking up a tab here?" Wang Hao looked at the restaurant owner and asked, "And you just let her?"

"What else could I do?" The restaurant owner helplessly shook his head. "She said she owned three jewelry stores in the city, an advanced postnatal care center, and her husband was the largest shareholder of the biggest KTV here. Additionally, she has a large company worth tens of millions. Could she possibly fail to pay me back? I thought about it, and it seemed normal for such a big company’s boss to not carry cash, so I agreed. But look where that got me; she ate here without paying and racked up a debt of over fifty-six thousand in just six months!"

Wang Hao: "..."

Liu Quanyou: "..."

Wow, my sister, that’s incredible! She managed to consume $56,000 in half a year without paying a dime!

"Didn’t you think about going directly to her company to demand the money?" Wang Hao asked. "With the guts you showed earlier, it shouldn’t be a problem to confront them directly."

"I did go, how could I not?" The shop owner downed another drink and said, "But when I got there, I couldn’t even get through the front gate! There were over a dozen security guards inside, and I definitely couldn’t force my way through. If I sued her, they would just deal with each invoice separately! It would take three years to resolve hundreds of invoices. Who could handle that? What could I do? I had no choice but to sit and stare."

Wang Hao and Liu Quanyou exchanged glances—no wonder he had been so agitated earlier...

However, as sympathetic as they felt, this was genuinely a tough situation.

"Don’t worry too much, boss," Wang Hao thought for a moment, then said, "Take it slow. There’s always a way out of no way, right?"

"What help could you guys possibly offer me?" the shop owner said with a dejected look. "Misery loves company, I guess. I figure you guys probably can’t even get back what you’re owed. Forget it, if it really comes to that, I’ll just have to write it off as bad luck."

The shop owner was surprisingly straightforward, which significantly changed Wang Hao and Liu Quanyou’s impression of him.

"Don’t worry, boss. We’ll definitely find a way!" Liu Quanyou reassured him, patting his chest vigorously. "See this guy right here? He’s incredibly capable. With him involved, I don’t think your problem will be too big to handle!"

"Him? The kid?" the shop owner looked at Wang Hao skeptically. "Forget it, he looks like he’s just out of university. How capable could he be? Don’t try to comfort me. I know my own problems. This Yu Fang, don’t be fooled by her flashy appearance. She’s notoriously stingy—she would pluck feathers from an iron rooster if it passed her by!"

Wang Hao: "..."

That description was spot on!

"Damn it! I refuse to believe it!" Liu Quanyou exclaimed as he pulled out his phone. "I need to ask her what’s the deal! If you can’t get back your $56,000, it won’t look good for the $3 million we’re owed either!"

He made the call, and as expected, Yu Fang completely vanished, not even responding.

"See, what did I tell you?" the shop owner grumbled after downing another drink. "She didn’t pick up, right? No way she would, I know what she’s like."

"Damn it, that woman! She was supposed to invite us for dinner tonight, and now she’s not even picking up the phone!" Liu Quanyou cursed, furious. "Wait until tomorrow, I’ll go to the company myself! I refuse to believe she can just do whatever she wants."

After dinner, Wang Hao and Liu Quanyou returned to the small hotel, going to bed to wait for the next day to demand payment.

The night passed without incident.

At 8:30 the next morning, Wang Hao and Liu Quanyou got ready and set out.

Finding the address of the Feiyage Small Commodity Trading Company was not that difficult. When they entered and inquired, they were greeted by a young lady named Little Zhao, wearing glasses, who greeted them with a smile: "Are you Mr. Liu and Mr. Wang? President Yu went out early in the morning and specifically instructed me to give you a warm welcome if you came."

"She went out?" Liu Quanyou scoffed. "More like escaping debts, right? I don’t care where she’s gone; when is she going to pay the $300,000 she owes our company?"

Someone else might have been intimidated by the situation, but Little Zhao just smiled and pushed her glasses up. "It’s about that matter, is it? Don’t worry, she definitely won’t run away from her debts. President Yu owns three jewelry stores in the city, an advanced maternity center, her husband is the biggest shareholder in the largest KTV here, and then there’s another big company with assets worth millions. Do you really think she’s going to miss your little amount?"
