My Youth Began With Him

"60,000 yuan? What did they eat? That's damned expensive." The man was cranky.

"They all had crayfish and my entire stock has run out. If you don't believe me, you can check the receipts." The shop owner looked helpless.

"Okay. Okay. I don't want to see the receipts."

The man called out to his subordinates sitting at the next table.

"Wei, give me the bag."

"Here you are, Big Brother."

The man opened the bag and took out six bundles of cash.

"Here."

"Thank you, Sir." The shop owner left with the money cheerfully.

"Big brother, this is… the money we collected for others… It's not our money. Can we spend it?" the guy named Wei whispered into Tao Kun's ear.

"It's fine. We'll talk about it later."

The man had decided that he must not lose face in front of so many people. To avoid becoming a laughingstock, he spent the money that wasn't his.

From their conversation, Lu Yan learned that they were villains who made a living by collecting debts.

The money lending companies hired these scoundrels to collect debts with all kinds of methods, including beating the debtors. They were mostly good-for-nothing scumbags who liked to bully others.

"Beauty, what's the illness you just mentioned? I'll check it for you." The man returned to their previous topic.

"HIV positive," Lu Yan repeated in a low voice.

The man immediately took out his cellphone and searched the words.

When the results appeared, he was startled.

It said people that were HIV positive were carriers of the AIDS virus.

"You, you, you…" The man looked at Lu Yan as if she was a ghost.

"What's wrong, Big Brother?" Lu Yan played dumb.

"Did the doctor in the hospital really tell you that you are HIV positive?"

"Yeah. He said something about the dormant period of the virus… I don't understand what he meant," Lu Yan continued with the lie.

"Fuck… This is AIDS… My goodness…"

The man was immediately scared into fleeing…

Lu Yan smiled faintly and wondered why there were so many morons in the world.

With a full stomach, she got up to leave.

The wife of the BBQ stall owner walked over and took her hand, whispering, "Miss, they are not good people. Stay away from them."

"Um… I know."

"Then why did you talk to them? Tao Kun is a big bully in this area and always picks on the meek ones. You made him spend so much money at our stall, and I'm afraid he'd get back at you."

Obviously, the shop owner's wife was kind and tried to warn Lu Yan while Tao Kun was gone.

"Thank you. I'll be careful."

With a smile, Lu Yan left.

After walking for over ten minutes, she was stopped by a group of people on a remote street.

"You guys again… What a coincidence," Lu Yan said with a smirk.

"Little bitch. You dared to lie to me… I called the hospital and they said there are no AIDS patients in the hospital. Do you think you can run from me after tricking so much money from me? If you don't go with me tonight, I'll make you suffer."

"It seems you're not a complete moron." Lu Yan had a toothpick dangling between her lips and her eyes turned into crescents when she grinned.

"Shut up. You must come with me and pay the debt with your body. I'll let you go when I'm tired of you." The man ordered his men, "Go and tie her up; put her into my car."

"Well… So, you are tired of living…" Lu Yan sighed lightly.
