Chapter 50 Pain Nerve
"Alright, now let's see just how tough our bald boss Hui really is," Su Chen clapped his hands and stood up. "If you can last three minutes, we'll call it a day."
But things did not go as hoped, and in less than a minute, the bald Hui was trembling as he said:
"Please, I beg you, I'll give you whatever you want, just pull them out now!"
"Oh, you can't take it this soon? Hold on a bit longer, just bear it for two more minutes for twenty million!"
Su Chen tilted his head and teased the bald Hui.
"No, please, I'll give you the twenty million, just take out these Silver Needles!"
The bald Hui really wanted to last two more minutes, but he just couldn't!
The relentless stimulation of nerve endings was more than he could bear for even one second longer!
Xia Qiuru was astounded by the extent of Bald Hui's suffering, seeing him pass up the chance to make ten million per minute.
"Alright," Su Chen's hand swept over bald Hui's body, and five Silver Needles appeared in Su Chen's hand.
"Ah, what a pity, I was just starting to enjoy this."
Su Chen clicked his tongue with regret. Hearing this, the bald Hui on the ground almost passed out.
It wasn't from the pain; it was from the frustration caused by Su Chen.
"Alright, time to pay up." Su Chen stretched out his hand towards Xia Qiuru, "Give me a bank card."
"What for? Don't you have your own?"
"Do I look like I carry a bank card?" Su Chen rolled his eyes.
"Who doesn't have a bank card these days?"
Though she said this, Xia Qiuru still took out a bank card and handed it to Su Chen.
After receiving the card, Su Chen thoughtfully handed a laptop to bald Hui. Although his face wore a smile, bald Hui felt like crying.
"Boss, I don't have that much money in my account, only 18 million," bald Hui said cautiously to Su Chen, "Can I owe the other two million for now?"
"I am a man endowed with kindness, let's just forget about the two million," Su Chen waved his hand generously, nonchalant.
The other two felt exceedingly awkward when they heard Su Chen say this. If he could be considered kind-hearted, then every thug on the street could be counted as a saint.
Though that was what he thought, bald Hui still had to appear overflowing with gratitude.
Because his recent ordeal was too momentous to forget, Su Chen appeared in his eyes to be nothing short of demonic!
"Alright, let's go," said Su Chen.
After bald Hui completed the transfer, Su Chen casually patted his shoulder, "It was a pleasure to meet you, I had a great time this afternoon!"
"I um also pleased to meet you, Mr. Su, I had a great time too!"
Bald Hui managed a strained smile, thinking to himself, "Of course, you had fun, not only did you take my two houses, but you also extorted 18 million from me."
....
"Su Chen, when should I transfer this money to you?"
Sitting in the car, Xia Qiuru asked somewhat nervously; her account had never held this much money before, which made her quite uneasy.
"Just keep it with you for now, let's split the money into three parts: one for you, one for me, and the third for the employee who got injured."
As for money, Su Chen had no concept of it; at the Temple, financial resources were managed by the "God of Wealth," and he had hardly ever asked about them.
"No, I can't use this money."
Xia Qiuru quickly waved her hand, a third of it, that was 6 million!
Even for her, a senior executive at Belle Corporation, that was nearly ten years' salary!
"Don't be polite, this money was extorted anyway, just take it."
"I really can't accept it, it's too much money, you better just tell me your bank account number quickly, and I'll transfer it to you."
Xia Qiuru was very principled. She believed this money had nothing to do with her, but she was still surprised that Su Chen voluntarily wanted to give a third to the employee who was injured.
Xia Qiuru couldn't help but take a few more glances at Su Chen. He didn't look like someone who had money, so why was he so indifferent about such a large sum?
"I don't have a bank card, you just keep it for now, but remember, 6 million of that is mine, don't you dare keep it," Su Chen joked intentionally.
"Then go get a card made, it's very simple," Xia Qiuru still wouldn't give up.
But no matter what, Su Chen refused to get a bank card, which left Xia Qiuru with no choice but to keep it for him for the time being.
Actually, Su Chen had his reasons for not getting a bank card; he feared someone might track him down through it, as he didn't want anyone disturbing his peaceful life, at least not until his Cultivation had recovered to a certain extent
"Anyone who marries you really has bad luck, not caring about money, how would life go on?"
Xia Qiuru couldn't understand Su Chen's behavior, and she felt helpless.
"How about you be my girlfriend then?" Su Chen teased casually, "That way you could keep an eye on me."
"As if! I would never!" Xia Qiuru spat out, her face slightly blushing.
If it were before, Xia Qiuru would never have reacted like this, but hearing Su Chen's words now, she couldn't help but recall the scene where Su Chen had stood in front of her.
At that time, Su Chen seemed to be enveloped in a layer of halo, causing slight ripples in her heart.
"This guy actually looks quite appealing when you take a good look at him, maybe he wouldn't be bad with a little cleanup!"
Xia Qiuru sneaked a glance at Su Chen's profile, thinking to herself, her heartbeat gradually speeding up.
"What are you looking at?" Su Chen, feeling Xia Qiuru's stares, grinned, "Don't tell me, Director Xia has fallen for me?"
"In your dreams!" Xia Qiuru quickly turned her head away, hiding her thoughts and asked nonchalantly, "I was just wondering why those Silver Needles made Bald Hui suffer so much, unable to stand even for a moment."
Although this was just an excuse to cover up her emotions, it was indeed a question that Xia Qiuru had.
"It's nothing, my Silver Needles just happened to stimulate his pain nerves, making a normal pain instantly amplify ten or even a hundred times more."
"Is it really that miraculous?"
Xia Qiuru couldn't help but cover her mouth, showing a surprised expression.
.......
Su Chen drove the car, and soon they were back at Belle Corporation, walking into Lin Ruoxue's office together.
"How did things go? All set?"
As soon as they entered, Lin Ruoxue eagerly asked, and only relaxed after seeing Xia Qiuru nod.
"How much did it cost?"
Lin Ruoxue asked casually, she wasn't too worried, it would just be a maximum of 15% higher than budgeted.
