Chapter 686: Compensate Me for Medical Expenses
"Now my girlfriend was scratched by this cat, and she was pushed down by you, causing her irreversible physical and psychological trauma. How do you plan to settle this?" Li Changhong’s words were filled with authority, leaving no room for doubt.
"So what do you plan to do?" Xu Xiangbei looked at them with interest.
"Two million, the medical expenses for my girlfriend are at least two million. As for mental damages, I’ll let that slide!" Li Changhong directly hiked up the price, eyeing Gu Xiangyi with greed.
"And that cat, it has to be slaughtered, I want to kill it to feed the dogs!" Zhang Yingying shouted, her face filled with hatred.
"My girlfriend is also frightened, and my kitten is injured too. How do we settle this? I just bought this cat for one million. Look at your girlfriend, does she add up to one million? According to your logic, you should at least compensate us twenty million!" If Xu Xiangbei knew he was at fault, he wouldn’t say anything.
However, they are clearly causing trouble on purpose. Earlier, Zhang Yingying was ruthless towards my little cat, clearly intending to stomp it to death, and ended up getting scratched and trying to hit people. She was lightly pushed and fell, and now they want to extort us. Xu Xiangbei would never give face to this kind of person.
"What? You’re saying I’m not worth a million, less than this little beast?" Hearing his words, Zhang Yingying screamed, clawing like a shrew!
"You misunderstood me, I didn’t mean you’re less than that cat!" At this point, Zhang Ying’s expression slightly improved, only for Xu Xiangbei’s follow-up words to drive her completely mad.
"I mean, you can’t be compared to my cat at all. In my eyes, you’re completely worthless. Of course, asking for twenty million is being quite generous, unlike you all who just say two million, demanding two million for someone worthless. I don’t even know where you get that confidence?" Xu Xiangbei’s expression was like looking at a clown, showing complete disdain and arrogance.
"You..." Zhang Yingying pointed at Xu Xiangbei, wanting to retort but couldn’t find the words. Her face became extremely contorted, like a powder keg ready to explode.
"Ha! Ha!" The Gu Family Sisters and Xiao Qiulian’s mother and daughter laughed outright. Gu Xiangyi laughed without any concern for her image, clutching the cat, bending over with laughter. This was obviously done on purpose, thoroughly enraging Zhang Yingying.
"You bitches, I will make it so you can’t live or die! I will make you kneel and beg me. And you, you filthy man, I’ll make you crawl like a dog, break your limbs, turn you into a mute, so you live in this world to watch the women beside you become prostitutes, riding thousands of men, stepping over you while you watch helplessly!" Zhang Yingying went completely mad, spewing venomous words, embodying a malicious woman. Her heart like a scorpion’s, reflected her true nature.
"Say that again!" Xu Xiangbei’s demeanor shifted, his words carried a sinister tone as if coming from the depths of hell, causing the air to freeze around them, plunging temperatures to a suffocating chill.
Xu Xiangbei could forgive insults directed at him, even the most vicious ones, but the insult to the Gu Family Sisters touched his reverse scale, as they say, even dragons have reverse scales, don’t touch them unless you want to rouse their anger!
"You..." Zhang Yingying still wanted to curse, but seeing the hellish look in Xu Xiangbei’s eyes, she shrank back but still mustered the courage to shout at Liu Changhong beside her.
"You always say you’re so powerful, worth billions, knowing so many big shots, most people give you face. Now I want him utterly destroyed. If you can do it, I’ll do anything for you!"
Hearing her words, Liu Changhong got excited, thinking if he couldn’t take down Xu Xiangbei at this moment, it’d be a huge embarrassment.
He took out his phone, directly dialing a number, and from his tone, it was clear he was calling for backup.
"Kid, if you kneel and apologize and pay two million now, I’ll pretend this never happened, otherwise this won’t end well!" Li Changhong’s words carried a clear threatening tone, full of confidence as if he had some great trump card.
"I’ll tell you too, if you kneel and apologize now, and pay twenty million, this matter will be considered settled, otherwise it won’t end well either!" Xu Xiangbei mimicked his tone perfectly, like another Liu Changhong.
"Alright, you’ve got guts, just don’t leave, I’ll show you what it’s like when a tiger doesn’t show its might, and you think I’m a sick cat!" Seeing his demeanor, Liu Changhong felt his intelligence insulted, his expression shifting slightly.
"Today I’ll just wait here grandly, show your move, but don’t back down then, or I’ll look down on you!" Xu Xiangbei knew his intentions, just trying to bring people, and those people were likely just a bunch of hooligans.
He wasn’t afraid of such people, some people just need to be dealt with, and his life’s motto was dealing with such people.
"Fine, just don’t cry later, kneel and beg me to let you go!" Liu Changhong felt like he was about to explode with anger.
Xu Xiangbei ignored him, continuing to play with the kitten with Gu Xinyan and the others, as if Zhang Yingying and her lot didn’t exist.
"Foxy women, shameless. And you, filthy man, just a pretty boy, must have hooked up with some rich lady. Your group of little goblins, with so much money, able to buy a million-dollar cat, must have found a sugar daddy! You’ve brought disgrace to us Huaxia people!"
Zhang Yingying herself was just such a person, but she couldn’t admit it, instead, turning these insults towards Xu Xiangbei. Seeing their smug looks nearby, she couldn’t help her jealousy and intense hatred.
"I hear a dog barking, a big bitch at that, is it in heat? Looking for a big male dog to hook up with?" Xu Xiangbei said, feigning seriousness. He didn’t want to get angry, lest it ruin his mood.
"Right! You’re not mistaken, there’s a bitch barking madly, eager to show off its abilities in front of another male dog!" Xiao Ailing chimed in without reservation, her small eyes full of disdain.
"You..." Zhang Yingying felt like she was going mad. Never in her life had she been so humiliated.
"Don’t worry, darling, when they come, they’ll stop laughing. I’ll show them what hell on Earth looks like, make them cry, kneel and kowtow to apologize to you!" Li Changhong’s face didn’t look good either, after all, that was indirectly calling him a male dog. But he still comforted Zhang Yingying, wearing a smug smile, knowing Xu Xiangbei’s end would be terrible soon.
"Alright, I’ll have him kneel before me, eat my spit, bite the dirt, I’ll break his hands and feet, I’ll..." In uncontrollable rage, Zhang Yingying rattled off, imaging the scene of Xu kneeling before her, which improved her mood significantly.
About 20 minutes later, a man dyed with purple hair, around thirty, holding a steel pipe, brought over a dozen underlings and approached.
This man wasn’t tall, about 1.68 meters, but somewhat fat, especially his arms, thick as bowls, tattooed with designs, a dragon on the left and a tiger on the right. He wore a thin shirt, under which a tattoo was visible on his chest, though unclear what it was, with a cigarette in his mouth, holding an iron rod, a special flick knife tucked in his waistband.
His name was Xie Chenghu, a notorious hooligan in this part of the scenic area, rumored to have hacked someone in his teens and spent time in juvenile detention. As he grew, he gathered a gang of underlings, bullying the good and extorting protection fees. He helped rich people beat up people, handle rivals, known in the underworld as Brother Xie.
Rumor has it he spent a year in Shaolin Temple, practicing martial arts for several years, making him unbeatable in fights! Because of this, he became the leader of all hooligans in this area, having quite a prosperous run.
"Brother Xie, you’re here!" Li Changhong saw him and immediately took out a pack of the finest cigarettes to offer him, then picked up a high-end lighter, lighting it for Xie Chenghu.
"Brother Li, no need to be so polite, we’re what? Brothers, no need for this. Tell me, who ticked you off today? I’ll make sure they cry for their parents, totally subdued!"
