The Hunter’s Lucky Little Lady Chapter 70



70 Extorting People?

After Luo Cheng heard the scholar’s words, his initial impatience dissipated.

Of all the lucky people, why couldn’t he be one of them?

He had asked similar questions before.

He even asked herself a thousand times in his heart, but he never got an answer.

When Li Xiaoran heard this, her heart ached.

Because everyone would have such an experience.

Li Xiaoran had experienced this before and had shouted countless times.

People’s circumstances were really depressing sometimes.

Some people were born lucky and could succeed in anything.

Some people tried their best, but in the end, they were still hapless.

What made it worse was that sometimes, no matter how hard you tried, you couldn’t obtain success or enjoy it.

The frustration would make one doubt oneself and lose confidence.

No wonder this weak scholar looked like he had nothing to live for the moment he entered.

Thinking of this, Li Xiaoran felt that she should do something to save this fragile man.

There were many things that others couldn’t empathize with.

Therefore, any words of comfort seemed feeble and wouldn’t make anyone in pain feel better.

Therefore, Li Xiaoran didn’t want to say anything to comfort him. Instead, she looked at Luo Cheng.

“Do you have anything on you that you can break? Something that’s worth a little money!”

Luo Cheng was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Li Xiaoran meant.

Luo Cheng thought for a moment and took out a jade pendant.

“This is worth a little money and is fragile!”

Li Xiaoran looked at the jade and thought for a moment before saying, “I owe you!”

With that, Li Xiaoran took the jade pendant and stuffed it into the weak scholar’s hand.

The weak scholar subconsciously wanted to hold it, but he didn’t.

Just like that, a jade pendant fell to the ground and shattered into a few pieces.

This scene immediately stunned the surrounding onlookers, especially the weak scholar. At this moment, he looked at the broken jade pendant on the ground and then at Li Xiaoran with tears on his face.

“Look, you broke my very valuable jade pendant! So please don’t be in a hurry to mope or commit suicide. Pay for my jade first! My husband said that this jade pendant is very valuable and is worth 2,000 taels of silver. In addition, this jade pendant has some special meaning. It’s not an exaggeration to say that it’s worth 1,000 taels of silver. I don’t think you look like a rich person. Why don’t you sign a contract with us?! Work for me for a year. As long as you compensate us with 2,000 taels of silver a year later, we’ll let you go!” Li Xiaoran said matter-of-factly.

The weak scholar looked at Li Xiaoran in disbelief and his mouth fell open.

“How, how, how can you do this? Aren’t you blackmailing me?”

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately laughed.

“So what if I blackmailed you? Didn’t you break the jade pendant?”

As soon as she said this, the weak scholar actually didn’t know how to refute.

“Since you broke it, you have to compensate me! Do you want to shirk responsibility? My husband is a famous hunter. You’d better think about whether or not you’re a match against him. Let me advise you, don’t even think about escaping from here. You won’t be able to outrun my husband! Therefore, you’d better follow us back obediently and repay your debt!”

Luo Cheng didn’t expect his wife to extort money from others!

What surprised him even more was that he had passively helped his wife blackmail a very pitiful scholar.

Looking at Li Xiaoran’s smug expression, Luo Cheng suddenly laughed.

Li Xiaoran looked like an evil person, but in Luo Cheng’s eyes, she was so lively and cute.

It turned out that one could be such a scoundrel when they wanted to help someone.

As expected of his wife!

The people around them gradually understood and looked amused.

However, everyone tacitly didn’t mention this matter and excitedly waited for the subsequent development.

“No, I-I didn’t want to shirk! I just didn’t expect to meet someone like you when I was in such a difficult position! The heavens are really unfair to me!” The weak scholar looked extremely upset.

“No, no, no, you’re wrong! Look, it’s obvious that there’s something wrong with your brain! The heavens are clearly telling you that what you encountered, your sadness, and your troubles, are actually nothing! Because in the future, you’ll encounter something worse than this! Look, weren’t you already very sad previously? In the end? Didn’t the heavens immediately make you feel even worse?” Li Xiaoran sounded like she was doing a tongue twister, but unexpectedly, the surrounding people understood.

The weak scholar was stunned for a moment before looking at Li Xiaoran dazedly.

Seeing him like this, Li Xiaoran reached out and patted his shoulder.

“Kid, listen to my advice! Don’t think about anything else. Just think about how you’re going to pay me back the two thousand taels of silver! When you return the two thousand taels of silver one day, everything will be fine!”

With that, Li Xiaoran turned to look at Luo Cheng.

“Do you know how to write, husband?”

Luo Cheng nodded.

“Alright, waiter, please help me get some paper, ink, and brush. We want to write the contract here.”

The waiter hesitated. He glanced at the weak scholar and then at Luo Cheng, unsure if he should do as he was told.

At this moment, the manager of the restaurant walked over and said, “Xiao Liang, do as the customer says!”

Seeing that the shopkeeper had spoken, Xiao Liang could only hurry up and prepare the things.

Soon, the things were brought over. Li Xiaoran looked at the weak scholar and asked.

“Hey, what’s your name?”

“My name is Wang Mingjiang!”

“Oh, Wang Mingjiang? How do you spell it?” Li Xiaoran asked again.

“M-i-n-g-j-i-a-n-g!” Wang Mingjiang replied.

At this moment, he had already been led astray by Li Xiaoran and was only thinking about what to do to pay back the 2,000 taels of silver.

Li Xiaoran was very satisfied with Wang Mingjiang’s answer. Then, she looked at Luo Cheng.

“Husband, help me record it!”
