Chapter 122: I want 50,000 yuan!

  The girl who followed the elegant man was Shen Yinbing, Gao Fei's former boss.

  Shen Yinbing didn't expect to see Gao Fei here, her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly as she walked over to Lili: "Lili jie, let me help you up."

  After seeing Shen Yinbing seemed familiar with Lili, Gao Fei pretended not to know her and looked at the elegant man with a very suspicious gaze.

  At a glance, this man looks very elegant, dressed with great taste, and has an extraordinary temperament.

  But his cheekbones are slightly high, and his eyes are somewhat narrow and long. These two flaws greatly destroy his facial features, making him look very uncomfortable, and a strong sense of gloom can be felt.

  "Shimei, Xiaobing, you two must take charge for me! This guy dares to beat someone up right in front of our shop!"

  After Shen Yinbing and the refined man appeared, Lily changed her shrewish image and became pitiful, sobbing: "Xiao Bing, look at him, he's made my face all swollen. As a man, how can he hit a woman?"

  How can you beat up a woman?

  "Hmph, what's this? He even slapped me before, does this bastard have a habit of slapping girls' faces?"

  Shen Yinbing snorted coldly in her heart, glanced at Gao Fei, opened her mouth but didn't say anything.

  She's well aware that she's no longer the 'girlfriend' and boss of Gao Fei, and for now, there's nothing between them. If she tries to take charge, this kid will definitely mock her, making a fool of herself. It's better to observe first before doing anything.

  The elegant man seemed to be very clear about Lily's moral character, so he didn't bother her and still maintained his due demeanor. With a slight smile, he said: "Hello, sir, I am Lin Shimiao, the general manager of Royal Western Restaurant."

  "I've long admired you."

  Gao Fei also smiled: "My name is Gao Fei."

  When Gao Fei said his name, Wang Xiaozhuang, who was hiding behind him, suddenly looked up at him.

  "Oh, it's Mr. Gao, nice to meet you, nice to meet you."

  After the polite words were over, Lin Shimei still smiled, but with a hint of gloom: "I'd like to ask Mr. Gao, what exactly did my wife and they do to offend you?"

  "This one."

  Gao Fei licked his lips and smiled: "Actually, she didn't offend me."

  Lin Shimei's eyes narrowed and she began to sneer: "Oh? If she didn't offend you, then Mr. Gao, it seems like you don't have a reason to do this?"

  "He lightly said: 'She didn't offend me, but I don't like how she bullies the little girl.'"

  Lin Shimmei glanced at Wang Xiaozhuang and the flowers on the ground, and was about to say something when the onlookers started to stir up trouble: "Hey, I'm telling you, that guy, Lili is your wife? Honestly, she's not worthy of you, she's just a shrew! After bumping into the flower seller girl, not only did she not apologize, but she also trampled the flowers! If you ask me, this kind of shrew should be divorced!"

  "It's just that your wife looks pitiful now, but you didn't see her arrogant attitude just now. I'm such an honest person, and even I almost couldn't help but hit her!"

  "Your wife is too fake, too cruel, too inhumane, and not a good thing at all! Being with you is like throwing a pile of cow dung on fresh flowers—"

  It's not necessary for Gaofei to explain himself, onlookers have already made things clear.

  "Get out of the way, what's wrong?"

  Two patrolmen also squeezed over at this time.

  They hadn't even figured out who was involved yet, when several indignant old ladies surrounded them and told the story again.

  The two policemen were actually quite familiar with Lin Shimei and her husband, and they also knew that they were the owners of the Royal Western Restaurant. Normally, everyone got along well, and if this had happened in the past, they would have stood on their side and taken away the troublemakers.

  However, the police also understand that justice lies in people's hearts. Since onlookers all blamed Lili for being wrong, if they were to bend the law, it would definitely provoke public outrage and might even get them beaten up by a few elderly women - don't look down on these people who are afraid of Junzi, but they're not polite to police who claim to be the sons of the people.

  "Oh, I see. Don't worry, madam, we will definitely handle this matter impartially."

  Two policemen comforted the old ladies with a sentence, walked to Lin Shimei's face, frowned and said: "Director Lin, how do you think this matter should be handled? Should we go to our clubhouse to deal with it or negotiate a solution between you two? However, we suggest that on-site negotiation is the best way to resolve this issue and give an account to the people."

  Lin Shimei's eyes narrowed slightly as she smiled: "Alright, alright, I'll listen to Captain Li. Let's negotiate a solution, and please ask everyone to bear witness."

  After finishing, Lin Shimei walked in front of Wang Xiaozhuang, squatted down with a smile and said: "Little sister, I'm sorry. I'm here to apologize on behalf of that aunt. How about this? I'll give you 5,000 yuan as compensation for the flowers and medical expenses for your injured leg. If you think it's not enough, then name a price and I'll try my best to satisfy you."

  Wang Xiao Zhuang's flower basket had over a hundred flowers, worth over a hundred yuan. After hearing Lin Shi Mei say she would compensate her with five thousand yuan, he hastily shook his head: "Uncle, I don't want that much, just give me a hundred yuan, okay?..."

  She was about to say something else when Gao Fei interrupted her: "Xiao Zhuang, do you believe Uncle?"

  Wang Xiaozhuang lifted his chin and nodded heavily: "Uncle Gao, I definitely trust you!"

  Gao Fei patted her head: "Alright, I'll take care of this for you."

  "Good!"

  Wang Xiaozhuang crisply responded with a "yes".

  Next to him, Shen Yin Bing lowered her eyelids and thought: This guy has always been a good-for-nothing who only takes advantage of others without suffering any losses himself. Now that he's caught the opportunity, he'll definitely go to his brother-in-law, Shi Zi, with a big smile on his face and ask for 10,000 or 80,000 yuan from that little girl. But this is also what she deserves, who let Lili be so arrogant all the time? She even dares to bully such a weak girl.

  Lin Shimei seemed to have also figured out what Gao Fei was up to, but he didn't care. After all, Wang Xiaozhuang and the bespectacled woman hadn't suffered much, so even if they had to shell out a few more thousand yuan, it would be worth it to settle the matter, just like smashing a bottle of red wine.

  "Boss Lin, I'm sure you've also noticed that this kid's physical condition isn't great. Don't be fooled by how fine she seems now, but who can guarantee that after being knocked down by your wife, she didn't suffer any internal injuries? You think that's right?"

  Gao Fei spoke with a gentle face, and pointed at the woman wearing glasses: "Moreover, according to my niece - oh, I forgot to tell you, she's one of my nieces. According to my niece's grateful personality, she will definitely spend money to thank this lady."

  The bespectacled woman also understood what Gao Fei wanted to do. She had the intention of advising him that it was not necessary to swindle this kind of person's money, but she merely nodded her head.

  Lin Shimei's face was calm: "Hehe, Mr. Gao is right, so what do you think should be done?"

  Gao Fei's smile turned cold, and he said lightly: "Considering Mr. Lin is sincere in apologizing to my niece and this lady, I won't be too greedy. How about this? You give me 500,000 yuan, and we'll consider the matter settled."

  "What, 500,000 yuan?!"

  Lin Shimei was stunned.

  Lily, who was beside her, suddenly jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on and shouted: "My god! You're too greedy! 500,000 yuan, why don't you just rob it?!"

  Not only were Lin Shimei and her husband startled by the eldest son of the high-flying lion, but also the onlookers, two policemen, and Wang Xiaozhuang were all stunned: "Five hundred thousand yuan? No way!"

  Only Shen Yinbing was calm and composed, with a cold hum in her heart: Hum, brother-in-law, now you see his ugly face, right?

  Gao Fei ignored Lili from the start and said lightly, "Robbery is a crime, and police comrades will never allow criminal behavior to exist."

  Lin Shimei's eyes had already flashed with anger, and she said coldly: "Mr. Gao, this is too much, isn't it? I've already given your niece 5,000..."

  Before Lin Shimei finished speaking, Gao Fei waved his hand to interrupt him, then took Wang Xiaozhuang's hand and turned around to leave: "Alright, since Mr. Lin doesn't agree, I can only take another approach to seek justice for my niece - everyone watching, I'm going to the TV station now to ask the media to help my niece get justice, who's willing to follow me there as a witness?"

  Deep down, people actually have a serious hatred for the rich, wishing that all wealthy individuals would go bankrupt overnight and jump off buildings - as long as they themselves are not among the rich.

  Moreover, this is an era of angry youth, where men and women, young and old are all angry youths. Being able to participate in the declaration of war against the rich for justice is precisely a behavior that best represents the angry youth.

  Then, no one thought that Gao Fei was blackmailing Lin Shi Mei anymore. They all raised their arms and shouted: "I'm going!"

  "Count me in!"

  "Wait for me, you all! How can this matter of upholding justice be left behind by an old woman like me?"

  In the blink of an eye, dozens of people surrounded him, asking to follow Gao Fei to the TV station.

  The two police officers maintaining order at the scene also looked somewhat at a loss, and hastily exchanged glances with Lin Shimei.

  If the masses really go to the TV station, then they will also have to bear the responsibility of being unable to maintain public order.

  "Let them go, I don't believe it, the TV station will tolerate such blackmail!"

  Lily was just about to say that she would also bring Junzi and the others along when Lin Shimei glared at her fiercely: "Shut your mouth!"

  Lily, who was heartbroken about losing money, shouted: "Why should I shut up? I absolutely won't allow——"

  "That's enough!"

  Lin Shimei took a big gulp again, quickly catching up to Gao Fei who was about to leave, and forced a smile: "Mr. Gao, we have something good to talk about. It's just 500,000 yuan, isn't it? I'll give it, I'll give it, can't I?"

  "We can't give it, we absolutely cannot give it!"

  Lily was about to rush up, but Shen Yubing pulled her back and said in a low voice: "Sister Lily, have you thought it through? With so many people here taking their side, it's definitely because your actions earlier offended the crowd. Even if you were also injured, the TV station would still stand on the side of the masses. What if the TV station exposes this incident later? Who will come to dine at your restaurant then?"

  "Ah, I——"

  Lily was just arrogant, but not stupid. After being reminded by Shen Yinbing, she immediately understood the danger and regretted it, but never boasted again.

  Gao Fei gave a cold glance at Lili's side and nodded at Lin Shimei: "Alright, we'll wait for you for five minutes. We want cash."

  "Soldier, quickly go to the front desk and get 500,000 cash, hurry up!"

  Lin Shimei shouted at Junzi who had just woken up and climbed up, but firmly remembered the appearance of Gao Fei.

  Gao Fei smiled calmly and looked up at the sky: When you hated me, you were still behind me!
