Chapter 244 — What Did You Run Out Here For? "Half a Lover?" Wei Zhao Was Speechless, Is There Such a Thing as Half a Lover?

"Yeah, we just tell the outside world that we are a couple, but in reality, I don't have to perform any girlfriend duties!" Sun Jingyan nodded and said, "From now on you will appear before my friends as my boyfriend!"

Wei Zhao finally realized where he had been tricked... And what a trap it was, as big as it could possibly be! Not only did he have to help Sun Jingyan steal the files, from now on he would also have to pose as her boyfriend!

Wasn't this deal far too much of a loss? But this was the rule and the reward he had set himself, so who else could he blame?

No wonder he had felt something was off before. Sure enough, something was very off!

"You really got me..." Wei Zhao had no mind to go back on his word, he was not shameless enough for that, what he had said had to stand, "But that boss did all of this just to make you his lover?"

"If you don't believe me you can go ask him, everyone in the industry knows he has ideas about me." Sun Jingyan said.

"Isn't that Wu Chengtian chasing you? Why don't you get him to settle it?" Wei Zhao asked. That Wu Chengtian called himself Iron Hand Wu, his hands were very formidable, stealing some files should be no problem for him.

"I don't want to get too entangled with him, I feel nothing for him." Sun Jingyan shook her head, "Are you trying to back out?"

"No, where are the files, I'll get them for you." Wei Zhao saw that Sun Jingyan did not want to say more about Wu Chengtian, so he did not ask further.

"The files are at his place, we move tonight." Sun Jingyan said.

"Fine, then tonight it is." Wei Zhao did not care either way, "As for that half-lover reward, I'll just waive it."

"That won't do!" Sun Jingyan refused flatly, shaking her head again and again, "I told you many times before, you were sure to take half of the other side's terms as your reward, you confirmed it with complete certainty, and now you want to take it back?"

"I can't even turn it down?" Wei Zhao smiled bitterly.

"No! Absolutely not!" Sun Jingyan said, "You work for me, I pay you, that is only right and proper!"

"All right..." Wei Zhao felt rather helpless, but seeing how firmly Sun Jingyan put it, there was no way around it, after all Wei Zhao had indeed agreed before.

Just as the two were talking, they saw a gang of punks running over this way, Scarface among them, saying to one of the men as he ran, "Brother Guang, that's him, that's the kid, he stopped me from collecting protection money here, and he hit me!"

It had to be said, Scarface's imagination was quite rich, turning his own sordid business of harassing Sun Jingyan into Wei Zhao obstructing his collection of protection money, tricking his boss into coming here to settle the matter.

The owner of the street stall saw clearly who was coming, his face changed at once, and he hurriedly warned Wei Zhao and Sun Jingyan, "Little brother, run quick, Brother Scarface has called his boss over, he is definitely here to teach you a lesson!"

"Ha, I haven't finished eating yet, let them come if they want." Wei Zhao did not care in the least, still eating his spicy skewers slowly and unhurriedly.

"Hey!" The spicy skewer owner sighed, he had already done all that decency demanded, since this man would not listen, there was nothing he could do, he only hoped that when Brother Guang arrived, it would not drag him down too!

"Hey, there are a lot of them, are you sure you can handle it?" Sun Jingyan thought Wei Zhao was very skilled, but after all two fists were no match for four hands, with so many people coming to make trouble, could Wei Zhao really settle it?

"A lot of people?" Wei Zhao tossed down the bamboo stick in his hand, looked up, and laughed, it was actually an acquaintance! And this acquaintance was shouting loudly right now!

"Who dares to cause trouble on North District turf? Do you have no respect for me, Brother Guang?" Scarface's boss swaggered over, shouting into the spicy skewer stall.

"Ha, we meet again?" Wei Zhao smiled faintly, looking at "Brother Guang," "People say it takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone, instead of lying at home, you ran out here to become crippled?"

When Brother Guang saw Wei Zhao, his face changed at once! This Brother Guang was none other than Zou Ruoguang, the punk boss of the North District, and he had never expected to run into the man he had met in the hospital a few days ago here again!

In the hospital, Wei Zhao's ruthlessness had left a fresh memory for Zou Ruoguang! This kid was simply a maniac for violence, torturing people without blinking an eye, treating his wrist like a toy, pulling and twisting it until it broke several times!

At this moment, Zou Ruoguang looked terrible, although he had many men with him, he did not dare to move against Wei Zhao lightly! He was actually very timid at heart, he feared that if his men proved no match for Wei Zhao, his fate today would be even worse than two days ago!

Last time it was a broken wrist, this time it might well be a broken leg!

"Ha... it's you, brother..." Zou Ruoguang forced a laugh, for the moment he dared not provoke Wei Zhao, and unwilling to lose face, he could only pretend to be very familiar with Wei Zhao, "What a flood washing into the Dragon King's temple, family failing to recognize family! Scarface, this brother would never stop you from collecting protection money for no reason, tell the truth, what really happened?"

In fact, how could Zou Ruoguang not know that Scarface was making an issue out of nothing? Scarface's men could not be that loyal to Scarface, Zou Ruoguang had already heard about what had happened before!

As for why he still stood up for Scarface knowing the situation, on one hand it was because no matter what, Scarface was his underling, and when an underling got bullied, he as the big brother naturally had to stand up for him!

And on the other hand, it was because he had been taught a lesson by Wei Zhao on the weekend and had not dared to fight back, feeling stifled inside, so he had meant to teach someone else a lesson to vent his anger, only to run into Wei Zhao here again, Zou Ruoguang cursed his rotten luck!

Scarface froze, he had not expected his boss to change his attitude the moment he arrived, and at once realized things were out of the ordinary! Since he could become the boss around the market, he was naturally no fool!

Brother Guang had come to back him up, yet his attitude toward Wei Zhao was so friendly, which gave Scarface a bad premonition! Could this man really be such a ruthless character that even his boss had to treat him with respect?

"Sorry, Brother Guang... I caused the trouble, I just said a couple of words to this... big brother's woman..." Scarface did not argue, he knew that now Brother Guang was going to sacrifice him to smooth things over.

"Smack!" Zou Ruoguang slapped him across the face, "Serves you right for showing off! Apologize now!"

"Sorry!" Scarface apologized to Wei Zhao and Sun Jingyan very slickly.

"Enough, stop acting, I have no time to watch your show." Wei Zhao waved his hand impatiently, "Boss, the bill!"

"This..." The spicy skewer boss was not a man without sense, seeing that even Zou Ruoguang did not dare offend Wei Zhao, how would he dare take Wei Zhao's money? "No need, brother, this meal is on me, no charge..."
