Chapter 318 Ulterior motives
Li Xier was actually at her godmother's house at this time, because that damn Dou Qiang was still lingering around, always coming to harass Grandma Dou when Li Xier was away!

If the hard approach doesn’t work, try the soft approach and play the emotional card.

When she came, Dou Qiang was kneeling on the ground slapping himself, begging Grandma Dou not to break off relations with him, saying that he had been bewitched before, but now he has come to his senses!

Because he found out clearly that Li Xier was actually the big boss of Hengcan Liuli!

No wonder the Zangdao Gang didn't dare to confront him and even gave him some face by returning the house deed to Mrs. Dou.

Bah! Looking at her innocent old face that seemed to care about him, Dou Qiang wanted to spit in her face.

This lame old woman named Grandma Dou was really lucky. Everyone thought she was too old and confused, and she fell in love with a poor country boy who wanted to take advantage of her. Who would have thought that he was actually a big boss with unlimited wealth, which would be of great use to him.

She saw with her own eyes that someone was chasing him for debt and wanted to hack him to death, but she still refused to tell him. There was a strange light in her eyes that was not noticed. Damn, she dared to guard against him?
After many twists and turns, he gave her gifts, begged her on his knees, and took care of her food, before he finally gained some sympathy from the aunt. "Ah Qiang, are you really repentant? Do you want to redeem the wheat ears?"

Dou Qiang cried so hard that his tears and snot were all over his face.

"Aunt, I've actually regretted it a long time ago. I know I'm a worthless person. I owed gambling debts before just to try to win back the money, redeem Yunyun's mother and Mai Sui, and live a good life. I was wrong, I was wrong a long time ago, please forgive me! Apart from my mother, I only have you as my relative. Whenever I think of how you used to take care of me, I feel heartbroken and regretful. I'm sorry to my father, my wife and children, and my aunt! I'm not a human being. My brother Xiaoxi is right, I'm worse than pigs and dogs!"

Dou Qiang slapped his face so hard that it made loud slapping sounds, and kowtowed continuously, resulting in several large black and blue bumps on his forehead.

Grandma Dou sighed, and seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, she said with regret: "Ah Qiang, it is a great virtue to admit your mistakes and correct them. I hope you can make a decent living and get back on the right track from now on!"

"Aunt, if I have the chance I would certainly do this, but you also know that my gambling debts are not small, and I don't know when I can pay them back even if I do odd jobs. Besides, with my reputation, who would dare to hire me?" Dou Qiang cried.

"Alas, this is all your own fault. There is nothing I can do. This house is my last refuge, and I cannot give it to you. Also, the leader of the Burial Blade Gang said last time that he was giving Xiao Xi a favor and returning it to me. If you use it to pay off a debt, I will not acknowledge it!"

"Aunt, they are trying to force me to death. Please save me! Only you can save me!" Dou Qiang said secretly with gritted teeth.

Speaking of which, the Zangdao Gang cancelled the mortgage of A-gu's property for his gambling debts, but did not let go of his gambling debts at all.

Not allowing him to enter the gambling house to gamble again was to deny him a chance to turn things around, but every day the brothers of the Buried Blade Gang would come to him to collect debts. He naturally thought that Li Xiaoxi was the boss of Hengcan Liuli, so it was no wonder that he could handle the brothers of the Buried Blade Gang, but he had offended them. Now he could only get in touch with him through his aunt, and maybe he could get into Hengcan Liuli to work.

What if he could get a position as a manager? What if he could get some secret recipes?

This is much less risky than gambling, so what if he is willing to be a good worker?
He is willing to work like a horse or an ox, to be a dog, and to eat dog shit!

Li Xier curled her lips coldly and walked in from outside!
"Godmother!"

Grandma Dou's eyes lit up with joy, and she quickly walked towards her: "Xiao Xi, why are you here?"

I was a little surprised when I saw Dou Qiang kneeling on the ground. I was worried that Xiao Xi would be unhappy!

After all, he had reminded her several times before to stay away from Dou Qiang.

"Godmother, is your leg feeling better? I've been busy these past few days and haven't come to see you. I happened to be passing by here today and I came to see you when I had some free time!"

"Hey, it's much better. Ever since you asked Doctor Bai to see me last time, I've taken the medicine and my leg is much better now. It doesn't hurt as much as before!"

"That's good, godmother. This is the wild ginseng I asked my friend to buy from the north. Take it. It can improve your immunity. Make soup with it when you have time to nourish yourself!"

"Hey, Xiaoxi, godmother knows that you have been busy lately. That bad guy hurt you, and you are still worried about godmother. I don't know what to say. Look at you, you are so skinny. Take this wild ginseng back and stew it for yourself!" Grandma Dou's eyes were red.

Dou Qiang's eyes flashed. If he was not mistaken, that wild ginseng was at least a hundred years old and would be very expensive!
It's worth at least three hundred taels of silver. Why is this old woman still talking to him? Just take it and push it away! She really has never seen the world and doesn't know the value of things!
If he gets this, wouldn't it be possible to pay off his gambling debts in one go, and then he can do something he likes...

Li Xier glanced at Dou Qiang, who was talking nonsense and had bad intentions. This man is a dog that can't change its bad nature. How could she not know him?

He pretended to be Li Xiaoxi's brother and went to the Zangdao Gang to cheat people, wanting to get in to gamble, but he didn't know that she was the boss. He only felt that Li Xiaoxi had some friendship with Xie Ajin. Chen Jinhui reported it to her directly, and she told him to keep track of his movements at all times. It was really exciting until he followed her!
