Chapter 689

Upon hearing these words, Chen Zihao's gaze turned cold in an instant.

His patience had been completely exhausted.

"Fine, so you're unwilling to return the money to us now, right? Since that's the case, don't blame us for being ruthless. It's not that we are heartless; you brought this upon yourself."

"If you had just taken the money out, there wouldn't be any issues at all, but you've been wasting time here and don't dare to produce the money."

"Then don't blame us. We will keep punishing you until you take the money out."

After saying this, Chen Zihao glanced at his brothers.

The meaning was self-evident.

The brothers understood quickly and immediately stepped in front of Rong He Ji.

They each raised their fists, looking fierce and menacing.

In truth, they were very fragile when they first arrived.

Their expressions hadn't been this fierce either.

It was Rong He Ji who had demanded they become this fierce; only by being fierce would they make everyone afraid!

But Rong He Ji never expected that their fierceness would one day be turned against him.

Rong He Ji was stunned for a good while before slowly saying: "You must know, if it weren't for me leading you all to survive here, you wouldn't even know where to go to drink the northwest wind by now!"

"Not only are you ungrateful now, but you're also using these methods to deal with me; it really makes me feel cold-hearted!"

"If I had known earlier that you were so heartless, I wouldn't have taken you in, nor would I have given you so much money."

Actually, the previous words were fine, but this last sentence struck their sore spot.

They furrowed their brows, their faces full of impatient expressions.

"Rong He Ji, what did you say? You actually said you gave us a lot of money?"

"Do you have any shame? You only gave us a few thousand dollars. We've really been following you for years; if you only give us a few thousand, is that really a lot of money?"

"I really didn't expect you to say something like that. You should draft your lies before you tell them; it's so embarrassing!"

This was truly beyond their tolerance.

There should be a bottom line even when bragging.

Now, he didn't even have a bottom line; he just opened his mouth and made things up.

Could these few thousand dollars really be a lot to Rong He Ji?

Rong He Ji didn't look down on these few thousand dollars at all; he only had eyes for big money.

So he was just saying these things to fool them.

Hearing this, Rong He Ji's face remained expressionless. He stared at him for a few seconds and then slowly said: "Actually, I didn't say that these few thousand dollars were really a lot. Is your vision so high that you think a few thousand dollars isn't money?"

"Besides, there are over a dozen of you. This money was all out of my own pocket. You can imagine how much money it adds up to for a dozen people!"

"For you, a few thousand dollars might not count for much, but for me, it really is a very large sum of money. Anyway, I gave you over a hundred thousand; you better return it quickly."

Rong He Ji raised his eyebrows, his face full of a smug expression.

In reality, they had earned him millions.

But he had only given them a little over a hundred thousand.

And then he had pocketed the millions.

Of course, he couldn't let them know about so much money.

If they found out, who knows what the consequences would be!
