Chapter 1795 - 1881: The Scam
This car hasn’t even touched anything, plus I have a dashcam. This old thing is brazenly thinking about extorting me; Su Xuan really wants to ask if you have no brains or what.
"Hey, you can’t be this blatant when staging an accident!"
Su Xuan got out of the car, feeling speechless. You can’t park long in this area.
"Oh my, someone hit an old man and won’t admit it!"
The old man pretended to be dumb, and Su Xuan was truly speechless. Just then, a beautiful young lady happened to pass by, dropping a hundred yuan on the ground, and then exclaimed.
"Who dropped a hundred yuan!"
"A hundred yuan, mine, mine!"
The old man, hearing about a hundred yuan, seemed excited and rolled up to grab it, genuinely thrilled as if he’d won the lottery.
"Seriously, weren’t you pretending to be dead just a moment ago?"
Su Xuan rolled his eyes; the old man was truly dazzled by the sight of money!
The old man was instantly embarrassed and pretended to be in pain again, but the young woman was filming with her phone.
"Daring to fake accidents, I’m calling the police!"
"You... you just wait!"
The old man said as he awkwardly fled, the sight made Su Xuan chuckle.
"Thank you!"
Su Xuan said gratefully, this girl was not only attractive but also kind-hearted.
"Oh, it’s nothing, I’ve seen plenty like him, taking advantage of old age is what I hate most, well, I’m off now!"
The girl said as she prepared to leave.
"Wait!"
Su Xuan hastily took out his wallet, pulled out five hundred yuan, and said.
"Thanks for your righteous help today, this money is yours!"
Su Xuan thought there weren’t many girls like her; the world lacks people with such backbone and spirit.
So no matter what, he had to support and encourage such bravery; otherwise, who else would stand up for what is right?
"No need, it’s just a hundred or two, I just treated him like a beggar!"
The girl quickly said.
"No really, you deserve this. If you hadn’t helped, it wouldn’t have been so easy to resolve; let me thank you!"
Su Xuan said, forcibly handing the money to the girl, who reluctantly accepted it.
Actually, in today’s matter, even if the girl hadn’t helped, Su Xuan had reason on his side. If the traffic police came, he had evidence, but it would probably take a long time, and his car might be held at the traffic police station for a while, which would be quite troublesome.
Su Xuan drove away leisurely, feeling quite good because he felt there’s true sentiment in this mortal world, and it’s fulfilling to help foster such positive energy.
After driving to Feng Shanshan’s place and staying a while, Su Xuan learned that Feng Shanshan recently represented Huaxia abroad for peacekeeping, which is why she hadn’t been back.
Leaving the Feng Family, Su Xuan arrived at the restaurant where he once ate overpriced lobster. Nowadays, the chubby boss had been replaced by a refined-looking middle-aged man selling seafood.
Su Xuan ordered some food, planning to enjoy it, feeling relaxed since he hardly needed to manage company affairs, so he’s been roaming from place to place.
"Dad, today we’re eating Intestine, haha, and met someone so naive!"
"Haha, daughter, you didn’t let him take advantage of you, right?"
"No, who could take advantage of your daughter!"
"Haha, indeed, indeed!"
Initially, Su Xuan found the voice familiar, and then instantly felt embarrassed because he realized it was the voice of the old man who tried to stage an accident. The strange thing was, the girl who acted like Lei Feng was actually the old man’s daughter.
At that moment, Su Xuan thought indeed the city’s tricks run deep, makes one wish to return to the countryside, as the schemes here are truly complex.
Turns out the positive energy girl was part of the scam, Su Xuan chuckled helplessly, thinking how everyone is advancing with the times, even those who stage accidents.
Su Xuan didn’t really care about the hundreds of yuan, but still felt uncomfortable, unexpectedly losing in these schemes this time made him feel uneasy.
However, Su Xuan wouldn’t really bother with a girl like that; if it were a man, he might have gone over and slapped him, but since it was a woman, he was helpless.
Sitting alone at the table, contentedly eating the seafood, his mind was somewhat cluttered, thinking about Pan Chenyu’s situation, genuinely conflicted about whether or not to go. Su Xuan didn’t know what Pan Chenyu went through, but he knew she was a sensible girl. Since she chose this path, she must have her reasons.
Feeling a bit upset, a few rough voices drifted in.
"Boss, ten pounds of mixed crab, I’m treating the brothers today!"
A man with a face full of flesh and squinty eyes swaggered in, speaking smugly.
"Brother Long, look, a beauty!"
Indeed, these unruly people always come with a special aura, if they’re not perverts, they’re idiots.
The group consisted of more than ten unruly youths, if it were summer, Su Xuan believed each would have an Azure Dragon and White Tiger tattoo.
These were all some twenty-something delinquents, revving motorcycles outside, likely just finished drag racing.
"Hey, little miss, let’s be friends!"
Brother Long turned swiftly, sat next to the girl, and said with a sly smile.
"Who are you, let go!"
This girl was tricky, yet not easy to provoke. She dodged his advance but had nowhere to avoid as there were too many of them, and all sat down leering at her.
"What do you want, this is a law-based society, keep it up and I’ll call the police!"
The old man jokily said, at that moment Su Xuan was thinking damn, you know it’s a law-based society, but were staging an accident just moments ago, it’s just outrageous!
Normally, encountering this situation, Su Xuan would step in but he truly didn’t want to deal with such nonsense recently, just let them learn a lesson.
