Chapter Twenty: When I Opened Up Jack's Chest

  Just as Tang Menglong was arguing with Pu Renjing about his egg, a tragic scene was unfolding in a separate practice room on the first floor of SM Entertainment.

  "Where did this money come from!" a slender girl with several banknotes in her hand asked loudly.

  And in front of her, there was a girl with her head down, as if she were being judged.

  If it were Tang Meng Long here, he would have discovered that this girl was none other than Zheng Xiujing, the one who made him "wish he were dead".

  The girl standing in front of Jung Soo-young is her sister, Jung Soo-yeon. Like Jung Soo-young, she is also a trainee under SM Entertainment and has already begun preparations for her debut.

  As for why such a scene appeared, it mainly started from yesterday.

  Yesterday, the two of them were taking a bus back home, so they didn't return very late. As for their words, their family members did not suspect anything either.

  But the problem is that today, when Zheng Xiujing and her sister came to the company together, Zheng Xiujing accidentally revealed the remaining 90,000 yuan in her pocket. As for the relationship between the two sisters, they are familiar with each other's underwear. Although 90,000 yuan is not a lot, it is not a small amount for Zheng Xiujing.

  Moreover, Zheng Xiuyan had no idea where the money came from, so she started to think wildly, but thinking too much was not as good as asking directly.

  So that's the current situation, as for Choi Seul-ri, she attended a different foreign language school from Jung Soo-jung, and her studies were much more demanding, so it seems like she narrowly escaped.

  Under Zheng Xiuyan's 'ice-cold and bloodthirsty' gaze, Zheng Xiujing could only helplessly reveal the matter of competing with Tang Menglong.

  But as soon as this was said, it caused an explosion of laughter in the practice room.

  One of the girls with smooth skin and a lovely face laughed the most exaggeratedly.

  But everyone was laughing, Zheng Xiuyan didn't, instead she got angry and said: "Who told you to go meet strangers with Sherry? Playing Go is one thing, but actually going out to eat with them and even receiving 100,000 won from him! Who knows what his intentions are, and how convenient that he just happened to say he's from San Francisco! Zheng Xiuyan, can't you use your brain for once!"

  Jung Soo-jung weakly lifted her little head, thinking of the uncle's appearance, and said with some grievance: "That uncle is a bit childish, a bit silly, but he's still a good person, sister!"

  "How dare you speak for him!" Zheng Xiuyan was about to burst her lungs at this moment, she didn't believe that the other party was really so kind-hearted. If it was just an ordinary invitation, it would be fine, but Zheng Xiujing said that they had eaten high-quality Korean beef yesterday and even ate a lot of it. Zheng Xiuyan had reason to suspect that the man had ulterior motives.

  "Xī kǎ ōu ní, don't be angry, what if they really just invited us out of kindness?" A girl wearing a white tank top and with long hair that seemed to flutter like a young deer's, ran over and said with a smile.

  Jung Soo-yeon turned her head and gave her a look full of killing intent, the girl instantly retreated, weakly retreating to the corner of the wall.

  "Take out your phone and call that man!" Zheng Xiuyan said with a serious face, lowering her head.

  Zheng Xiujing looked at her sister's serious expression, and simply took out her phone, dialed Tang Menglong's number, and handed it over to Zheng Xiuyan, who had already stretched out her right hand.

  At this time, in SBS supermarket, Tang Menglong, who had just finished arguing with Park In-jeong and was about to start business, heard the ringing of his mobile phone.

  "The sunset glows on the western hills, the warriors return with a hundred victories, a hundred victories..."

  "Uncle, what's this ringtone? It's so weird!" Park In-jeong exclaimed in surprise at the strange sound.

  Tang Menglong looked at her with a disdainful face and said: "You don't know how to appreciate it, eat your noodles!"

  Park In-jeong made a face at him and then started fighting with the food on the cash register.

  Tang Menglong took out his mobile phone and looked at the incoming call display, feeling a bit strange. He hadn't expected that little devil to call him again before the day was even over.

  "Hey! You little brat, I said I'd treat you guys to dinner again, but you don't have to call me back so soon!"

  On the other end of the phone, Zheng Xiuyan furrowed her brow, listening to this thug-like way of speaking, and immediately lowered her impression of the speaker to an all-time low.

  "I'm Jeong Soo-young's sister, thank you for taking her out to dinner yesterday and even giving her money for a taxi ride home. However, the amount of money you gave was a bit too much. If you have time, I'd like to return the remaining money, as well as two-thirds of the cost of last night's meal, and then we can settle this once and for all. And please, in the future, it would be best if you didn't contact my sister again!" Jeong Soo-young's sister said with a slightly overbearing tone.

  On the other hand, Tang Menglong furrowed his brow and said: "What do you mean!"

  "It doesn't mean anything, just like the literal meaning, I hope to return the money to you, and it's best not to contact my sister!"

  The other end of the phone fell silent, and after a moment, an angry voice came through: "What kind of thing are you? I'm working at SBS, and you dare to call me by my full name, Tang Menglong, on SBS TV? I'll be right in front of you soon. And you owe me money, right? OK, yesterday's meal was 780,000 won, let's say I ate 580,000 won, and the two of them ate 200,000 won each. Now I'm waiting for you to come pay back the money. If you're one minute late, it doubles to 400,000 won, if you're two minutes late, it's 800,000 won, three minutes is 1,600,000 won... and so on! If you don't come to pay back the money, you'll be my granddaughter! Don't say I'm not reasonable, I'm just a villain!"

  "What do you mean!" Zheng Xiuyan said with some anger, she didn't expect this man would say something like that.

  On the other end of the phone, Tang Menglong was furious: "What do I mean? Just like the surface, if you want to return the money, just follow the numbers above, otherwise get out! What's wrong with you, really think you can give me two big slaps in the face and treat me as a human trafficker or Jack the Ripper, sick!"

  "Beep beep beep!"
