Chapter 337: Kneel and Beg Me
Su Mushi took his phone and rushed out. When he came to a secluded corner, he answered the call with a lowered voice, “Second Brother.”
Su Muyan’s voice was also laced with panic. “This matter can’t be hidden any longer. How do you plan to solve it? It’s so much money. Even if we’re to sell ourselves, we can’t afford to pay them. Dad will know about it soon.”
Su Mushi’s mind was in a mess. He tried to keep himself alert and had a gloomy look in his eyes. “Second Brother, please help me… I beg you! You can’t tell Dad now. Please just help me once more!”
Su Muyan could barely keep himself afloat. This was Su Mushi’s idea in the first place, but now he had to clean up the mess. “Third Brother, I checked the people who won the bet. They’re from your school, so maybe you can start with them.”
Suddenly, Su Mushi’s eyes looked fierce. He gritted his teeth and asked, “It’s Shen Xi, right? It’s that brat, isn’t it?”
Su Muyan could hear the hatred his brother had for Shen Xi. He said in a deep voice, “She cheated Dad’s money to pay off her adoptive father’s debts, so how would she get any money to place the bet?”
“Second Brother, who is it then?” Su Mushi was so anxious that he was sweating.
‘Who’s messing with me? Who else in school would do this besides Shen Xi? Is it Yu Qiubai again?’
“It does have something to do with Shen Xi.” Su Muyan paused and said, “It’s the International Class in your school, led by Pei Xu and Song Wenye.”
Since they would have to deposit the money to the winner, they needed to know their bank details. A simple check led him to No. 4 High School’s International Class.
Shen Xi was placed in the International Class, so she might have been behind this.
Su Mushi’s eyes were filled with hatred. His expression became fiercer and more threatening as he said, “Second Brother, I’ll take care of it. Just help me hide it from Dad first.”
He really underestimated this little b*tch Shen Xi. She was clearly forcing him to the edge of a cliff!
Su Mushi was wondering who would bet so much money and choose the obvious unlikely option. It turned out that it was that bunch of lunatics from the International Class.
The International Class banded together to raise money and bet more than 30 million yuan. That was doable. After all, although their grades were lousy, their families were rich.
Su Ruowan only saw Su Mushi answering the phone and running off with a murderous vibe.
Yu Qiubai smirked with interest as he watched Su Mushi run down the stairs. He got up and followed him.
Pei Xu just got out of the bathroom when he was stopped. He yelled, “F*ck, get out of my way!’
Su Mushi looked at him and said, “Pei Xu, I need to talk to you about something.”
Pei Xu casually ripped open the wrapper of a lollipop and stuck it in his mouth. He looked askance at Su Mushi. “Get lost. I have nothing to say to you.”
Su Mushi tried to suppress the anger in his heart, knowing that he could not be pushed to the edge. He lowered his voice. “It’s about the bet. I know you guys bet a lot of money.”
Pei Xu raised his eyebrows and let out an unruly and arrogant sneer. “Your family has no money? What, do you wanna renege on your bet?”
Su Mushi’s eyes turned dark. “Let’s talk somewhere else.”
Pei Xu did not mind it and followed Su Mushi to the rooftop. “So… What do you want to say? If your family wants to Welsh on the bet, don’t blame me for going against you.”
Su Mushi looked at him. “Pei Xu, this is all my fault. My father doesn’t know about it, so I hope you won’t make a big deal out of it.”
“Then what do you want?” Pei Xu leaned lazily on the railing.
Su Mushi replied, “As you know, private betting and gambling is against the law, so it has no legal effect. I’ll return your principle and double it, then let’s just forget about this.”
“You treat me like a bum, don’t you? Who the hell lacks that kind of money? Your family is such a scum! You only want to win and don’t wanna admit it when you lose?” Pei Xu looked at him funny. “If I lost and asked you to get my principal back, would you give it to me?”
‘F*ck! The Su family is really planning to go back on their bet!’
“I’m not saying I won’t give it.” Su Mushi was here to beg Pei Xu, so he was humble. He swore that he would never touch this kind of thing again. “Pei Xu, think about it. If this gets out, it wouldn’t be good for anyone. We’re all seniors, so if this gambling thing gets out, it’ll be a stain on your record. No school would accept you then.”
Pei Xu sneered and threw his lollipop angrily. “So what you’re saying is that your family wants to back out from this bet?! You can try. I’m not afraid of anyone and will fight till the end!”
“You can fight, but what about the rest of your class?” Su Mushi knew that Pei Xu valued camaraderie, so he picked on Pei Xu’s weakness to persuade him. “They need to continue their studies, so are you going to drag them into this?”
‘This little b*tch Shen Xi set me up and trapped me. It’s good enough now that I’m paying them double!’
They were all seniors and would soon be taking the college entrance exams. If this gambling was exposed, it would have a big impact on all of them.
Pei Xu laughed mockingly. “Su Mushi, whatever they wanna do is their business. I won’t force them, but you’d better transfer me the money. If you don’t, I don’t mind making this big and we’ll see which one of us will have more to lose.”
He thought, ‘I don’t give a damn!’
Su Mushi saw that Pei Xu was adamant and started to panic. “Pei Xu, then what’s your price? How much do you want?”
Pei Xu did not bother talking to him and turned to leave. “However much is owed to me. If you dare shortchange me, I’ll give your family a taste of a sinful payback.”
Su Mushi saw him leaving and called out to him as hatred surged in his eyes. “Pei Xu, give me a few days since we’re classmates!”
He would need some time to think of a solution.
Pei Xu turned around and gave him a nonchalant glance. “Beg me.”
Su Mushi’s eyes flickered. He clenched his fists tightly. If it was possible, he really wanted to kill Pei Xu and kill all those who were in his way.
Pei Xu raised his eyebrows arrogantly. “I told you to kneel and beg me!”
“Pei Xu, I beg you. Please don’t make a big deal out of this matter. Give me three days, and I’ll give you a satisfactory answer.” Su Mushi knelt in front of Pei Xu, trying to resist the urge to kill. He had endured enough humiliation, so what else could he not do?
Pei Xu was stubborn, so Su Mushi thought that he would start with Shen Xi since she was definitely the mastermind behind this. The people she cared most about were her adoptive parents.
