How can soone be so unreasonable?
Is this uncle the legendary nouveau riche?
This is just ridiculous.
Xiyan looked totally exasperated. Forget it, forget it—there’s no way you can ever argue with unreasonable people and get anywhere.
Might as well chalk it up to bad luck for today!
Xiyan turned around and lifted her bike off the ground.
The passenger side door of the car opened, and a crisp, cheerful voice rang out, "Dad, what’s going on here?"
Huh? Wait a second...
Isn’t this the girl from the class next door who asked Xiyan to pass her love letter to Ou Jue, only to be turned down?
The girl clearly recognized Xiyan too—first she froze, then smiled knowingly.
"Oh, isn’t this Xiyan from school?"
Great, just great. How did things end up this coincidental?
Xiyan’s expression darkened.
The chubby man glanced at his daughter, "ngyao, you know her?"
Li ngyao snorted, "Of course I do. She’s from my school, just next door to my class—she’s the stingiest girl ever!"
"..." Stingy? How was Xiyan stingy? All because she didn’t pass her love letter to Ou Jue?
ngyao was clearly still hung up on what happened at lunchti and made a point to bring it up. "Hey, you scratched my dad’s car. Don’t think you can talk your way out of this—pay up."
The chubby man inspected the scratch carefully on his car and arrogantly said, "That’s right! My worker had an accident today, so I had no choice but to drive out to this shabby area to check on him. Who’d have thought I’d run into sothing like this? It’s unlucky for , but you can just pay twenty thousand yuan, and we’ll call it even!"
What???
Xiyan, still pushing her bike, looked at the tiny scratch on the Audi. "Twenty thousand? Why don’t you just go rob a bank?"
Did they really think she knew nothing?
Xiyan wasn’t always a nobody. At one point, she was a pampered young lady, okay? This chubby guy’s car was worth, at most, a few hundred thousand yuan, and he had the audacity to demand twenty thousand for a tiny scratch?
Did he take her for a fool?
"Xia Xiyan, have you ever seen the world? My dad’s car is an Audi!" ngyao gloated, looking as smug as ever. "Twenty thousand is already a bargain for you! Either cough up the money, or my dad just has to make a phone call, and you’ll be done for!"
"Who do you think you are? You can just demand whatever you like? This is a law-abiding society, so stop acting like a bunch of thugs!" Xiyan said furiously, pulling out her phone without hesitation. "Enough talking. I’m calling the cops right now."
Ten minutes later, two young officers from a nearby police station showed up.
The chubby man pulled those officers aside and started whispering sothing to them.
A mont later, one of the officers turned back to Xiyan. "Here’s the situation: there aren’t any security caras nearby, and the scene is already disrupted, so there’s no evidence or witnesses. However, there’s one undeniable fact—you did scratch the man’s car. Let’s diate this: pay this gentleman ten thousand yuan, and the matter will be resolved."
Xiyan’s eyes widened in shock. "Why?!
She was the one who got hit, but sohow she ended up having to pay?
Is there no justice left in the world?!!
What’s worse... she barely had a few hundred yuan on her! Where was she supposed to find that kind of money?
Was this just so random calamity falling from the sky?
Unbelievable. Absolutely infuriating!
Watching Xiyan’s deflated expression, ngyao smirked smugly, "How about now? Didn’t I tell you that if you didn’t pay up, things would only get worse for you!"
