HCB Chapter 314 IOU
Chapter 314 IOU
"Hey, don't look at me like that..."
"If you don't want to eat... you don't have to eat... give it back to me..."
After saying that, Zhao Dongchuan was about to reach out to take back the skewers.
Sophia quickly dodged...
"Who said I don't want to eat...I'll eat..."
Sophia didn't care what Zhao Dongchuan said about the gold bars. She said it was just for accounting... wait until she escapes from danger... and sees her parents and family... humph!
She took a few bites of the barbecue viciously... chewed it and swallowed it into her stomach!
Although wolf meat tastes very sour and has little fat, it's already this time and no one wants to be pretentious. It's good enough to have meat to eat.
Sophia ate them one string after another, and soon she had recorded more than a dozen gold bars from Zhao Dongchuan!
"Words are not enough... we should be more formal..."
As he spoke, Zhao Dongchuan took out a pen and paper from his backpack and handed them to Sophia.
"Come... write an IOU..."
Zhao Dongchuan read it while Sophia followed and wrote it down...
"On a certain day of a certain month of a certain year, I, Sophia, voluntarily spent a large sum of money to buy Mr. Zhao's meat..."
"You...you brought a pen and paper with you?"
"It's not just paper and pen, I also brought ink pad... After you sign your name... put your fingerprints on it!"
After that, Zhao Dongchuan took out a box of ink from his backpack...
Sophia stared at Zhao Dongchuan's backpack in confusion. Why was there everything in this backpack?
This guy is not a traveler at all, he is clearly a professional robber!
Although she complained bitterly about Zhao Dongchuan in her heart, the situation was stronger than she was. Sophia had no choice but to sign the humiliating debt treaty with a face full of indignation...
"Good~very good! Hehe..."
Zhao Dongchuan happily folded the debt agreement, put it in his shirt pocket, and patted his chest.
"You should also be more open-minded... At this time, money is just a thing outside of your body... Anyway, your family is not short of money..."
"Humph……"
Sophia didn't want to say anything more, she just picked up the skewers from the pot and started eating...
"Asshole...money-hungry..."
He mumbled to himself while eating.
Zhao Dongchuan, who had gotten the advantage, didn't want to go too far, so he let her vent.
"Hahaha...it's quite fun..."
Zhao Dongchuan was secretly happy. It really felt good to be naughty... No wonder many time-traveling protagonists like to bully arrogant girls...
As time passed, the roasted meat in the pot was soon finished.
Both of them are a little full...
Sophia touched her bulging belly, her face full of satisfaction. At first she felt bad about the money, but it didn’t matter anymore after eating… Just like what Zhao Dongchuan said, what’s the point of asking for money if no one wants it, anyway, her family has plenty of money…
So she ate very hard... her speed was almost the same as Zhao Dongchuan's...
Zhao Dongchuan rubbed his round belly, took out a thermos cup from the backpack beside him... and poured himself a full cup of wolfberry tea.
"call!"
He gently blew away the water vapor on the rim of the cup, took a sip of tea, smacked his lips, and nodded. He looked so pleased.
Sophia looked at it and suddenly felt her mouth was very dry. After eating so much barbecue, her mouth was already greasy and she needed a cup of tea to relieve the greasiness.
She said weakly: "Mr. Zhao...what kind of tea is that? Is it delicious?"
"It tastes good...it tastes really good..."
Zhao Dongchuan took another big sip and made a sucking sound.
Sophia wanted to drink but didn't know how to start, and her face turned slightly red.
"What, you want to drink?"
"Uh...yeah!"
"Okay... sign another IOU... a cup of tea and a gold bar..."
As he spoke, Zhao Dongchuan took out a piece of white paper and a pen and handed them to Sophia.
"..."
Sophia's mouth was twisted and she almost burst into tears... Fortunately, her reason prevailed and she finally held back. In Zhao Dongchuan's expectant eyes, she wrote another IOU...
Zhao Dongchuan took back the IOU and took out a cup from his backpack.
"Hey... this is your cup... use this to drink water from now on..."
As he said that, he asked Sophia to take the cup and poured her a glass.
In the dim room, the flames in the fireplace flickered. Two people were sitting on the sofa, each holding a teacup, sipping gently, in great silence.
At this moment, it seemed as if the wind and snow outside had disappeared... leaving only a faint warmth rising in my belly... lingering...
The two of them drank quietly, each thinking about their own things... until they finished the wolfberry tea in the thermos.
……
"Okay... since you are so tactful... I will give you a piece of news for free..."
Zhao Dongchuan spat the wolfberries in his mouth onto the ground, covered the teapot, and looked at her with a smile.
Sophia thought he was trying to trick her into signing an IOU again, so she just looked at him with a wary look on her face and didn't respond...
“Hahaha…really!”
"Before I came here, I met a professor named Hall. He has sent an emergency rescue signal to the Lighthouse Government... It is expected that a large number of rescue teams will arrive soon... Then you can go to the rooftop to call for help..."
"I think someone would be happy to rescue you..."
Zhao Dongchuan gave a faint smile.
"Uh, really? Are you telling the truth?"
Sophia jumped up happily...the blanket wrapped around her fell to the ground, revealing her slender and delicate figure.
At this moment, she was wearing a light blue dress, had blonde hair, blue eyes, and fair skin... She was a lovely princess...
Surprise and surprise flashed in her eyes... as if she had already seen the scene of being rescued in her mind.
"But before you leave, you have to settle this account first..."
As he spoke, Zhao Dongchuan took out the IOU that Sophia had written earlier and said with a smile.
"you you……"
This brought Sophia back to reality from her dream.
What’s going on? Didn’t we agree that all I need to do is sign the IOU?
"If you leave, won't my IOU become a piece of waste paper? How would I know where your home is? Will you hide on purpose?"
"You...I..."
Sophia's face turned red and she stammered for a moment, unable to speak. At some point just now, she really thought about running away and refusing to pay. It was not that she couldn't afford it, but she really didn't want to see someone succeed in their conspiracy!
"I know you can't take it out now..."
"But it doesn't matter... I've already thought of an idea for you... As long as you tell me the location of the vault in New York... and how to get in... then we'll be done with this..."
Zhao Dongchuan laughed and stated his ultimate goal.
The IOU was just a cover. What he actually wanted was the location of the vault and how to get in. Since Sophia could live here, she must be an important member of the JP family and must know about this news...
"Impossible...I...I don't know!"
When Sophia heard this, she quickly shook her head and refused.
"I am not afraid to tell you that long before the disaster, the entire banking industry had already begun to transfer risks... a large amount of gold was transported away by helicopters and other means..."
"Even if there are any left... there must not be much..."
"That's none of your business... Just tell me the location and how to get in... The rest... is my business... I will bear the consequences myself..."
Zhao Dongchuan put away his smile and said indifferently.
Seeing his serious and calm face, Sophia's heart skipped a beat... Would this guy be so angry that he'd destroy the flower?
Thinking about the various weird and perverted ways that she had heard about the men in the family playing...she couldn't help but shudder!
"Are you really going?"
"Yes!"
"Then you better think about it. Not only is it very dangerous on the way, but you might also be discovered afterwards..."
"Don't worry about that... I know what I am doing..."
"..."
Sophia stopped talking... After a moment's silence, she began to orally describe the location and the process of entry to Zhao Dongchuan.
"..."
"That's it... Even if you know the method, you can't get in without the key..."
"Hehe... I didn't say anything. I just wanted to take a look... and try my luck..."
Zhao Dongchuan smiled and said with a laugh.
