Chapter 371: Revised: Chapter 371 Tears and Sobbing

Bin and the others saw those people leave dejectedly, but they became jubilant, cheering and mocking as if they had won a battle.

Wu Hanwei led Wu Xiaokang and followed the group of students, leaving with their heads bowed, covered in dust and dirt. However, Wu Santong remained in place, unmoved.

“Mr. Wu, is there something else you need?” Wu Xiaoyu asked, a bit annoyed at his refusal to leave. “You’ve lived so long, shouldn’t you have a bit more sense by now?”

Wu Santong glanced at Manager Li, who was slumped by the doorstep, and scratched his head. “Well… we have some things to discuss with Li the Sixth. Can we… can we take him with us?”

Manager Li, hearing that Wu Santong wanted to take him away, nearly burst into tears.

The Wu family really is loyal! Though they didn’t help teach Wu Xiaoyu a lesson, they’re now trying to save him from catastrophe?

However, Manager Li hadn’t even had the chance to be happy before Wu Santong explained, “Mr. Wu, he… he owes us money.”

Wu Xiaoyu knew what kind of debt he was referring to, but he was more interested in the bounty on his own head.

Wu Xiaoyu lightly kicked Manager Li and asked with a smile, “Mr. Wu, how much did he pay your family to come after me?”

Wu Santong trembled at the question and hurriedly explained, “Mr. Wu, he… he contacted Wu Hanwei directly.”

“I didn’t know the target was you! If I had known, I wouldn’t have agreed no matter how much money he offered!”

“I’m not blaming you, just curious. Be honest.” Wu Xiaoyu had become impatient with Wu Santong’s pleasantries.

Wu Santong sneaked a glance at Wu Xiaoyu and, seeing he wasn’t angry, said, “Ten… twenty thousand… twenty thousand!”

Manager Li was stunned upon hearing this. What? Wasn’t it supposed to be ten thousand? How did it turn into twenty thousand?

Before Manager Li could protest, Wu Xiaoyu burst into laughter, proudly saying, “Wow! My life’s getting more valuable!”

Bin felt awkward hearing this. Last time, he had taken Hu Ba’s money and sent Huang Mao to teach Wu Xiaoyu a lesson, resulting in them getting a beating.

And now, Manager Li had spent twenty thousand to go after Wu Xiaoyu? Too bad, the twenty thousand was wasted!

Seeing that Wu Xiaoyu wasn’t offended, Wu Santong relaxed slightly and pushed further, “Mr. Wu, can we take him with us?”

Manager Li glared at Wu Santong. Though he cursed him for being shameless in his heart, he didn’t dare speak up.

After all, twenty thousand might be a large sum, but compared to my safety, it’s nothing.

However, I can’t avoid it forever. If Wu Xiaoyu doesn’t relent, my case won’t withstand investigation.

Wu Xiaoyu lightly kicked Manager Li again, making him cry out in pain.

Amid the pitiful cries, Wu Xiaoyu sneered, “Mr. Wu, I need him for something. You should go now.”

Seeing Wu Xiaoyu’s ruthlessness gave Wu Hanqing cold feet. “Big brother, maybe we should leave? He can’t escape anyway!”

After much consideration, Wu Santong respectfully nodded to Wu Xiaoyu and left with Wu Hanqing.

Once they were out of sight, Wu Xiaoyu took out his phone and dialed Ma Youliang. “Uncle Ma? I have a merit to offer you!”

Though Ma Shengming had only had brief contact with Wu Xiaoyu, he saw him as mature and steady.

Wu Xiaoyu wouldn’t call him needlessly or talk nonsense. “What’s going on?”

Reviewing some documents, Ma Shengming was surprised to get Wu Xiaoyu’s call and quickly asked for details.

Wu Xiaoyu explained, “Da Feng’s 4S shop owner has been involved in tax evasion!”

Ma Shengming was slightly let down that it was just an economic case. “Alright, I’ll send someone to look into it.”

Though they were on the phone, Wu Xiaoyu sensed Ma Shengming’s indifference.

He contacted Ma Shengming to offer him a merit, strengthening their relationship and to swiftly crush Li the Sixth!

But Ma Shengming wasn’t one to be easily manipulated in the officialdom.

He immediately suspected the shop owner had a grudge with Wu Xiaoyu and that Wu Xiaoyu was using him to get rid of an enemy.

“Uncle Ma, if this was a small case, I wouldn’t bother you. But the amount of tax evasion may be in the millions!” Wu Xiaoyu coaxed.

A case involving millions might not be rare, but recovering such a large sum would be significant.

Moreover, Wu Xiaoyu had saved his daughter before. Helping him was justifiable.

Determined, Ma Shengming said, “Okay, I’ll send someone to investigate immediately and take the shop owner into custody.”

Wu Xiaoyu looked at the terrified Manager Li and smiled. “Alright! Send a team to Tong Family Lane.”

Tong Family Lane? Ma Shengming had served as a police officer in that area, knowing it was now a desolate place awaiting development.

The shop owner and Wu Xiaoyu must have clashed there. Would Wu Xiaoyu, in his youth, act recklessly?

Ma Shengming grew worried. “Wu Xiaoyu, don’t do anything rash! I’m coming over myself!”

With that, he hurriedly hung up. Wu Xiaoyu was left staring at the phone, surprised.

Wasn’t he indifferent? Why come personally? Is he afraid I might kill Li the Sixth?

Wu Xiaoyu chuckled helplessly, squatting down to Manager Li. “You heard me, I called the police. There’s no escaping your tax evasion!”

“Mr. Wu, I was wrong! Please, spare me! I can give you money… a lot of money!” Li the Sixth pleaded exaggeratedly.

Despite the beating and Wu Xiaoyu’s intimidation, he hadn’t completely lost his sanity.

Knowing Wu Xiaoyu had Ma Shengming’s number, he figured there was a way to overturn his fate. So long as he appeased Wu Xiaoyu, he could still escape.

But would Wu Xiaoyu be swayed by his money? “Old man, do you think I’m a pauper?” Wu Xiaoyu scolded.

“How much money do you have? ** me? Didn’t you hear? The Wu family alone gives me millions! Do you think I need your money?”

Upon hearing this, Li the Sixth deflated, overwhelmed with fear. Right! If Wu could extort millions, how could he need my money?

Last time, he went to the car shop disguised as poor, getting offended by me, sowing the seeds for today’s events.
