Chapter 317: Sister, who exactly is this brother of yours?

The people around couldn’t help but snicker.

"Damn, that’s brutal!"

"If I’m not mistaken, this was on purpose, right?"

"Serves her right, that’s karma for doing something so unethical!"

"This guy’s trick is just perfect, I love it!"

At this moment, Huang Xiaoying also realized that Lin Fan was deliberately making things difficult for the woman, returning the favor in kind. Watching the woman’s breakdown, Huang Xiaoying felt ecstatic inside.

Earlier, she felt insulted and furious when the woman compensated her with coins. But now she wasn’t angry at all, as the person who caused the trouble brought it upon herself. She was more than happy to watch her misfortune.

The woman with a face full of flesh was almost in tears, saying, "I won’t count anymore, you’re clearly making it difficult on purpose!"

Lin Fan responded with an "Oh": "You know about making things difficult on purpose, huh? Then why did you deliberately make it difficult for Little Ying with these coins?"

Woman: "..."

Speechless.

Causing trouble for others eventually leads to trouble for oneself; this is what it means to lift a stone only to drop it on one’s own foot.

Lin Fan smiled slightly and said, "You can start counting now."

The woman with a face full of flesh couldn’t take it any longer and began to plead, "Can’t I stop counting? How about this, I’ll take the coins back and transfer her the money."

Lin Fan shook his head, saying, "No, you forgot, I said we would accept these coins, and now we’ll only accept these coins, no other forms of payment."

The woman felt furious inside, thinking that he was out to ruin her!

She was about to explode.

"Mr. Lin told you to count, so just count, why so much nonsense!"

A voice said, and Old Gou stepped out of a small car, walking over with a serious expression.

"Boss..." The woman with a face full of flesh was startled; the boss actually came over.

The crowd was curious; so this is the stingy boss, huh, he actually showed up?

Old Gou quickly walked up to Lin Fan, looking respectful, and bowed, saying, "Mr. Lin, I am Gou Zhixiang, the owner of Linglong Fitness, it’s an honor to meet you."

As he said this, Old Gou extended his hand, attempting to shake hands with Lin Fan.

After Lin Fan called him, he rushed over immediately. Such a good opportunity to meet Lin Fan, he certainly didn’t want to miss it.

But Lin Fan did not shake his hand and said plainly, "You came at a good time, you can be a witness."

Old Gou awkwardly withdrew his hand and nodded, saying, "Alright, Mr. Lin."

The crowd was baffled; the boss was actually trying to ingratiate himself with Lin Fan?

Lin Fan looked toward the woman with a face full of flesh: "Begin."

"Start counting!" Old Gou ordered.

The woman with a face full of flesh had no choice but to continue counting coins with a bitter expression. It was truly exhausting, and she was close to tears as she counted.

"15000, 15001..."

After a while, she finally counted up to 15000, and a pile of coins accumulated on the floor.

This was an extremely tedious task, but everyone around was watching her count coins, none willing to leave, as they all wanted to see how Lin Fan would further tease this woman.

Old Gou watched from the side, so bored he started to doze off.

Lin Fan nudged him, and he woke up immediately, forcing himself to stay alert.

"Boss Gou, don’t fall asleep," Lin Fan smiled.

Old Gou forced himself to open his eyes wide, saying, "I’m fine, I can do this."

Lin Fan shook his head and said, "I don’t think so, please pause."

The woman with a face full of flesh stopped, her soul trembling, and she asked quiveringly, "What now?"

Lin Fan sighed and said, "It’s all your boss’s fault; he was dozing off, so he probably can’t confirm whether you counted correctly or not. In case he refuses to acknowledge it later, you’ll have to count again from the start. Boss Gou, make sure to watch carefully this time; your finance counting isn’t easy."

Starting over again!

This was already the third time!

The woman with a face full of flesh completely broke down and started crying on the spot, "No, I don’t want to count again, boss, I’m begging you?"

She begged Old Gou for help.

Old Gou smiled bitterly inside. Of course, he knew that Lin Fan was deliberately making things difficult, but how could he dare to offend Lin Fan?

"Mr. Lin asked you to count, just do it, don’t talk nonsense!" Old Gou said with a stern face.

The woman with a face full of flesh was furious; the boss not only didn’t help her but also forced her to obey Lin Fan!

The woman couldn’t help but scream in excitement, "I’m not doing this anymore, if you want to count, do it yourself!"

Old Gou angrily said, "You’re not counting? Do you not want the job?"

The woman got up and shouted, "I don’t want the job anymore, I’m quitting, alright!"

This finance employee dared to drop everything and leave; Old Gou’s expression immediately changed as he snorted coldly, "This is you quitting voluntarily, I’m not paying you any severance!"

The woman said, "I don’t want any severance, just give me my monthly salary!"

Old Gou was fuming, and upon spotting the coins on the ground, he had an idea and smiled slyly, "No problem settling your salary; I’ll calculate a full month for you, which is 4000, take 40,000 coins from here and leave!"

The woman was stunned, "What, you’re paying my salary with these coins?"

Old Gou said, "Aren’t coins money? If you want it, take it; if not, I’ll assume you’ve forfeited it. Also, you’d better not take more, or I’ll accuse you of embezzling company funds."

The woman was extremely angry, she’d rather die than count these coins again. Now just seeing these coins triggered a physiological fear.

"I don’t want the salary, okay!" the woman with a face full of flesh screamed, turning to run away.

She wished these coins would disappear immediately, so she simply made herself scarce.

Old Gou chuckled, "You said it yourself!"

The crowd watching burst into laughter; this is what they say about evil meeting its match, and Lin Fan certainly knew how to make these wicked people hurt each other.

How did he manage to do that?

Seeing the finance girl leave, Old Gou turned to Lin Fan and awkwardly smiled, "Mr. Lin, how about this, I will transfer the money to Little Ying now, and these coins won’t count."

Lin Fan shook his head and said, "No, I’ve already said, we want these coins, now that your finance person has left, the honorable task of counting the coins falls to you."

What?

Old Gou broke out in a cold sweat.

Plop!

He kneeled before Lin Fan, having witnessed firsthand how Lin Fan tortured the finance girl; he didn’t want to suffer the same fate, so he surrendered immediately.

"Mr. Lin, please, have mercy on me, I really know I was wrong." Old Gou cried with snot and tears.

Lin Fan said coldly, "Apologizing to me is useless, ask Little Ying if she can forgive you?"

Old Gou hurriedly knelt to Little Ying, crying, "Little Ying, I’m sorry, I was stupid to disgust you with coins; it’s all my fault for being narrow-minded, I deserve to die, but now I realize my mistake, can you forgive me? Please forgive me!"

Old Gou almost kowtowed to Huang Xiaoying.

Huang Xiaoying eventually softened, having already vented her anger. Seeing Old Gou crying so miserably, her heart softened, and she said, "Since you know you’re wrong, fine, transfer the money to me, and this matter will be over."

Old Gou was overjoyed and said, "Sure, I’ll transfer it to you immediately."

Old Gou took out his phone and quickly transferred 5000 yuan to Huang Xiaoying.

Huang Xiaoying finally received her due money and was very happy, saying, "Let’s leave it at that, you can take these coins back with you."

Old Gou nodded, "Okay."

Old Gou picked up a bucket of coins, awkwardly smiled, "Mr. Lin, I’ll take my leave then."

Old Gou carried the bucket of coins and walked toward his car.

Unexpectedly, Lin Fan called after him, "Boss Gou, starting next month, your store’s rent will increase by 20%, as a slight punishment for you. If you’re unwilling, you can move out."

Upon hearing this, Old Gou staggered, losing balance, and both he and the bucket fell to the ground, scattering coins everywhere.

Crying without tears!

He regretted it so much he could cry; if he had known earlier that Huang Xiaoying was Lin Fan’s acquaintance, he would never have done such a mean thing, as causing harm to others ultimately harms oneself!

Lin Fan ignored Old Gou and said to Huang Xiaoying, "Let’s go, take me inside for a meal."

Huang Xiaoying cheerfully said, "Okay."

Beside them, Ye Qingmei looked at Lin Fan, filled with curiosity, and grabbed Feng Ruolan, saying, "Sister, quickly tell me, who exactly is this sworn brother of yours?"

Feng Ruolan smiled faintly and said, "Him? Do you know the Mortal Group?"
