The incident where he had diarrhea last time was still a psychological shadow for him even now.
"Weren't you going to jump? Go on, jump."
Seeing Jiang Cheng looking at him playfully, Zhang Yu's face looked extremely ugly. He braced himself and said, "You think I don't dare to jump? If I do, I'll see how she explains it to all my relatives and friends."
"So much nonsense. If you don't want to jump, do you want me to give you a hand?"
After saying that, Jiang Cheng spoke directly to the nearby security guards: "How about this, brothers? I'll give each of you five million. The four of you rush up and pretend to hold him back, but in reality, while struggling, he 'accidentally' jumps because he's too emotional. At that point, he'll be drowning, and you go to save him, only to find you couldn't save him in the end and he drowned. What do you think?"
Seeing Jiang Cheng say this so calmly, Zhang Yu couldn't help but frown, and upon thinking about it, his face immediately turned pale.
Jiang Cheng's meaning was to kill him directly.
He only wanted to threaten Yu Xiaoxiao; he didn't actually want to jump into the river.
Zhang Yu pointed a trembling finger at Jiang Cheng: "What are you saying? This is a society ruled by law. You actually want to hire people to commit murder in public?"
The security guards on the side listened to Jiang Cheng's plan.
They were shocked at first, but then they felt tempted.
They looked at each other, but no one dared to be the first to speak out.
Looking at Jiang Cheng's outfit and the supercar he drove, they knew he was a wealthy young master.
If he could really produce that much money, they might not necessarily refuse to do as Jiang Cheng said. After all, ordinary people could never earn that much money in a lifetime.
The big guy in the lead was clearly the most tempted. He asked tentatively, "Sir, you're joking, right?"
"What? Unwilling? Don't worry, if anything goes wrong, I'll find the best lawyers for you to ensure your names are cleared. If you really end up going to prison, I'll give your families an extra five million. How about it? If you don't believe me, I can transfer it to you now."
Seeing Jiang Cheng take out his phone, Zhang Yu's face grew several shades paler.
Because he saw the struggle and the fervor in the depths of those security guards' eyes.
That look was clearly the kind that showed they were truly considering it.
A security guard's salary was at most four or five thousand. With five million, even if they went to prison, their families would live in comfort.
Besides, it was Zhang Yu himself who wanted to jump into the river. If something really happened, as long as everyone kept their mouths shut, they might truly get away with it and get a huge sum of money.
The security guards seemed to have made a decision as they began to look around, seemingly confirming if anyone else nearby had heard.
"What are you doing? Do you want to commit murder for money in broad daylight?" Seeing this, Zhang Yu finally panicked. He immediately stepped away from the riverbank and walked toward a safe area.
Seeing Zhang Yu's cowardly look, Jiang Cheng sneered and said, "What? Not jumping anymore?"
Zhang Yu bit his lip tightly, his face red with anger. He pointed at Jiang Cheng again with a trembling finger: "Do you know that murder is against the law? I'm going to sue you."
"I know, that's why I'm not doing it myself. And like I said, if you jump into the river, it's an accident. You're the one who wanted to jump. Money makes the world go round—I'm sure you've heard that phrase."
Seeing Zhang Yu walk away from the riverbank, those security guards suddenly felt a wave of regret, even blaming themselves in their hearts for not acting sooner.
The temptation of five million was still very great.
"Don't you dare! I'm telling you, I'm going to call the police and expose you two, you adulterous couple!" Zhang Yu said with false bravado.
"Try insulting us again. I won't do it myself, but remember, the next time you see me, you won't be able to speak."
Seeing Jiang Cheng staring at him with a look as if he were looking at a dead man, Zhang Yu couldn't help but shiver: "Heh, you think I'll be afraid just because you're threatening me? If you have the guts, come and hit me."
"I'd find hitting you to be dirtying my hands. Besides, why would I bother arguing with a dead man?"
At this moment, Jiang Cheng had already made a decision in his heart: Zhang Yu could no longer be allowed to appear.
Hearing Jiang Cheng say this, Zhang Yu suddenly felt a bit cowardly. Especially the cold light hidden in the depths of Jiang Cheng's eyes, combined with his behavior of tempting those security guards with money just now, made him feel a chill down his spine.
Seeing the security guards looking at him like predators, Zhang Yu's face turned even more deathly pale: "I won't let you two..."
Before he could finish, Jiang Cheng said with a dark face to the security guards: "I'll give each of you a hundred thousand. Beat him within an inch of his life for me."
If he had asked them to kill Zhang Yu, they would have had to think about it, but if they could get a hundred thousand just for beating someone up, there was certainly nothing to hesitate about.
The four of them immediately rushed up and unleashed a barrage of blows on Zhang Yu. Before long, Zhang Yu's face was bruised and swollen, covered in blood.
Watching from the side, Yu Xiaoxiao felt a bit scared.
She pulled on Jiang Cheng's arm and said, "Jiang Cheng, forget it. There's no need to get into trouble for someone like this. Anyway, nothing happened today."
