Chapter 174: Ambiguous Embrace
"Hua Jie, it's all in the past. Don't think about it too much, people should always look forward." Song Baiyu gently patted Hua Yue Rong's shoulder and softly comforted her.
Song Baiyu was comforting someone for the first time, and he found that this job was not easy at all. After racking his brains, he could only squeeze out a sentence from between his teeth.
Hua Yue's pink short shirt clung tightly to her body, accentuating her slender waist and hips. The tight fit highlighted her curves, revealing a small section of skin that was as tender as jade. Her full buttocks and slim waist were connected by an exaggerated yet wonderful curve, making Song Baiyu feel a sudden tingling sensation in his heart. He had the urge to reach out and wrap his hands around her slender waist.
What left Song Baiyu aghast was that the moment this thought flashed through his mind, Hua Yuexiang's body went limp in his arms, causing his own body to stiffen for an instant.
The feeling of Hua Yue Rong's delicate skin like jade against his chest, her eyelids drooping to reveal her long white legs standing upright, her black hair clinging to her lovely face, and the enchanting sensuality emanating from her was even more stunning than her beauty, striking people directly.
His fingers lightly slid over Huayue Rong's smooth waist, the cool and elastic feeling making Song Boyu's breathing involuntarily become thicker.
Hua Yue Rong's long eyelashes trembled, and a low moan escaped her lips. Weakly, she pushed Song Bai Yu away with both hands on his chest, but her body swayed and fell backwards.
"Hey, Hua Jie, what's wrong?" Seeing Hua Yue Rong's pale face, Song Bo Yu suddenly realized that something was off and hastily stepped forward to support her body.
"It's nothing, just an old problem, anemia. I'll be fine after sitting for a while." Huayue Rong said weakly, her face filled with painful expression.
Hua Yue Rong's body was originally weak, and after the emotional outburst just now, her emotions fluctuated greatly, exhausting her energy severely, which is why she suddenly fainted into Song Bai Yu's arms. However, upon touching Song Bai Yu's body, she vaguely felt something was off and used all her strength to push him away, but could no longer stabilize her own body.
"Sister Hua, I have some blood tonic pills here, take one first to stabilize your condition." Song Boyu saw the pale face of Hua Yue Rong and couldn't bear it, so he took out a beauty pill.
Hua Yue didn't quite catch what Song Baiyu said, but she nodded instinctively out of trust for him.
Seeing that Huayue Rong did not refuse to take the Beauty Nourishing Pill, Song Boyu slightly let out a breath and directly sent the pill into Huayue Rong's mouth. When his fingers touched Huayue Rong's tender lips, his movements paused for a moment.
The Beauty Pill dissolved instantly, and Hua Yue Rong felt a fragrance filling her mouth. She involuntarily let out a soft moan, then hastily swallowed the pill liquid into her belly.
In just a few seconds, Huayue Rong's face turned rosy and her feeling of weakness disappeared without a trace.
"Song Baiyu, what medicine did you just give me? How can it be so effective?" Hua Yuexiang felt her whole body relax, and she had endless energy in her hands and feet. Her long eyelashes blinked once, and she stared at Song Baiyu curiously.
"Sister Hua, don't you feel that your whole body is full of energy now and all the illnesses have disappeared?" Song Baiyu couldn't help but tease Hua Yue Rong with her serious expression. Seeing Hua Yue Rong nod excitedly, he continued to smile and ask: "Do you feel warm all over your body, full of energy, as if all troubles and worries have gone far away from you?"
"Bo Yu, stop teasing me and tell me what the medicine was that you gave me to eat earlier." Seeing Song Bo Yu describe the symptoms that happened to him one by one, Hua Yue Rong's curiosity grew more and more. She couldn't help but urge him.
"Hua sister, congratulations to you. From today on, you'll also become a member of the addiction family. What I just fed you was white powder." Song Boyu's expression turned serious at this point, and a hint of sly triumph flashed in his eyes.
"Ah……what……I'm addicted to drugs?" Seeing Song Baiyu say the last sentence with a straight face, Hua Yue Rong was like she had been electrocuted, her whole body stiffened, and her face turned pale. Recently, there was an anti-drug special on TV, and the miserable lives of those drug addicts made her shudder just thinking about it.
"Hua, you can't really believe that you're addicted to drugs, right?" Seeing Hua Yue Rong's tear-stained face and her lack of reaction for half a day, Song Bo Yu realized that his joke had gone too far. He looked at her with concern and asked softly.
"I believe you, how dare you trick me, I'll beat you up!" Just as Song Baiyu thought Hua Yue Rong was intimidated by his words, a sly smile suddenly appeared in her eyes, and at the same time, a pair of pink fists heavily landed on Song Baiyu's body. Along with this, Hua Yue Rong's crisp and joyful voice also entered Song Baiyu's ears.
Hua Yue Rong suddenly heard Song Bo Yu say that she was taking drugs, her heart really cooled down by half, because now she not only has to take care of her grandparents but also her younger brother who just entered the city. If she really got addicted, it can be said that three people would have to go down with her. Only when she found herself not trapped in fantasy and her mind was unexpectedly clear did she immediately understand that Song Bo Yu was deceiving her. After reacting, she naturally couldn't help but beat up Song Bo Yu to vent her dissatisfaction.
Song Baiyu let Hua Yue Rong's fist, like a drizzle of rain, land on his chest. Seeing that Hua Yue Rong, who had just been filled with sorrow, was now smiling, he felt relieved in his heart.
"You haven't told me what medicine you gave me just now." Seeing Song Boyu staring at her in a daze, Hua Yuexiang stopped her movements and whispered softly, but her heart was in a state of panic. How come she was so out of character today? First, she poured out her heart to Song Boyu, and then she acted like a little girl and pouted. Would Song Boyu look down on her?
Song Baiyu didn't have time to respond when a loud and urgent knocking sound came from outside.
Hearing the loud noise outside, Song Baiyu furrowed his brow, because the other party was not knocking on the door, but was banging on it. Who could be so bored?
"Is anyone inside? Someone is going to die!" Just as Huayue Rong approached the entrance of the rolled curtain door, a loud shout came from outside.
"Who are you? What's going on?" Huayue Rong opened the door, and Song Baiyu cautiously stepped forward two steps, shielding Huayue Rong behind him, asking gruffly.
Outside the shop stood a man in his forties. He had a pair of triangular eyes and two eyebrows that were connected together, his attire was mismatched, but what caught the eye most was his protruding two front teeth, giving off a comical impression.
"Which one of you is Hua Xiaobo's relative? He owes us tens of thousands in loans. If you don't come up with the money to bail him out, then don't blame us for being impolite." The pair of eyes that had been scanning Hua Yuerong's curvaceous figure were blocked by Song Boyu, and only then did he withdraw his gaze, speaking in a sycophantic tone.
"Isn't he in debt to you for 800,000 yuan? How did it become over 2 million now, are you mistaken?" Hua Yuexiang heard Da Mengya's words and suddenly became anxious, her slender body straightened up again, and she stood in front of Song Boyu.
"An hour ago, he indeed only owed us 800,000, but just now he had 800,000 yuan and didn't return it to us. Instead, he went to gamble again and accidentally lost the 800,000. Then he borrowed another 1,200,000 from us, so in total he owes us 2,000,000 now." The big man with a gold tooth looked up and down at Hua Yue Rong with a calm tone.
When she heard the words of Daman, Huayue Rong's face suddenly turned pale. The 80,000 yuan was borrowed from Song Boyu before, and now in an instant, she owed another 200,000 yuan in usury, which made her wonder where to find so much money for the time being.
"Are you going to pay or not, just give me a straight answer. If you really can't afford it, we'll have no choice but to remove some of his organs and sell them for cash." The big man glared at Hua Yue Rong, then looked at Song Bo Yu with impatience.
"No... you can't just do as you please, I'll think of a way to deal with the money slowly." Huayue Rong immediately panicked and begged when she heard that the usurer was going to harm her younger brother.
"Take us to your store, if people are fine, money is no problem." Song Baiyu furrowed his brow and instructed in a low voice.
Jinyang City, although a small city, is notorious for its chaos. Every three to five steps, there's a nightclub, and the streets are filled with signboards. The number of pawnshops and private banks in hidden alleys is also staggering. Since these shops all have some sort of backing and don't affect normal social order, the police turn a blind eye.
Song Baiyu wanted to reveal his police identity, but he was worried that it would startle the snake and harm Hua Xiaobo, so he still planned to solve the problem with gentle means.
When they heard Song Baiyu's words, both Hua Yuexiang and Daman Ya were stunned for a moment. Hua Yuexiang's eyes showed surprise and incredulity, while Daman Ya's eyes showed vigilance and suspicion.
"Hey kid, you're not a cop, are you? I asked around before you came, and the owner of the Evergreen Florist is quite familiar with the police at the West City precinct. But let me be upfront with you, even if you were a cop, our boss wouldn't give you any face. We run an honest business here, we don't break any laws..." The big-toothed man scrutinized Song Baiyu for a moment, his expression turning more serious. Song Baiyu's overly prompt response had only served to make him more suspicious.
"If you still want money, then stop wasting time here." Song Baiyu impatiently glared at him with a stern tone.
He was stared at by Song Baiyu's indifferent eyes, and his front teeth involuntarily chattered with a chill, but he didn't dare to continue talking nonsense. He let out a cold snort from his nose and turned around to leave.
Song Baiyu glanced at Hua Yue Rong, nodded slightly to comfort her, and followed behind Da Men Ya. Hua Yue Rong hesitated for a moment before quickly turning around to lock the shop door, then ran to catch up with Song Baiyu.
