Chapter 178: Chapter 172: Zheng He Makes Twenty Thousand in One Morning!
“Zheng He is really unlucky! Got beaten up for nothing!”
“Unlucky? I don’t think so, it’s too early to say whether it’s a blessing or a curse!”
“Hahaha, Zheng He almost ended up in jail, while Chen Xixi is at the property managent to participate in the Qixi Festival event, getting ready for a free dinner. If Zheng He knew, he definitely wouldn’t be able to sit still!”
“Qixi? Is it Qixi today? What event?”
“I just glanced at it and it seems to be so kind of romantic Qixi banquet, offering free red wine and desserts, all hoowners in the community can participate.”
At this mont, Zheng He, who was despised by the people of Jianghai, was sitting in the police station with the corners of his mouth slowly curling up, but suddenly he pulled at the injury on his cheek, wincing with pain.
He took a mont and then said to the police officer, “This is easy to resolve, just give fifty thousand yuan, and I won’t pursue this any further!”
He had just recalled that the college student hit him five tis, ten thousand yuan per punch wasn’t too much, right?
Fifty thousand yuan would be enough to see him through to the end of the show and secure the five million grand prize.
And Chen Xixi, even if she worked herself to death, could not possibly freeload fifty thousand yuan in funds.
Who says this isn’t a blessing in disguise?
Thinking like this, the beating wasn’t for nothing after all!
He’s finally gotten lucky for once!
With years of experience handling cases, and understanding Zheng He, the police officer tapped the desk with his fingertips and sternly said, “The other party acted out of a sense of justice. Cut it out, alright? Plus, this is a police station, rein in your crooked thoughts!”
Acts of valor may exempt one from bla, but causing harm to others due to a misunderstanding still holds one accountable.
However, considering Zheng He’s injuries, able to run and jump and asking for an exorbitant compensation, obviously fifty thousand yuan was too much. And looking at Zheng He, with ‘I’m trying to scam you’ practically written on his face.
Zheng He grimaced pitifully, “I’m not thinking crooked thoughts, I was beaten like this, fifty thousand yuan is already letting him off cheap!”
The police officer’s stern gaze bore down on Zheng He’s face and he instantly caved.
“…Forty thousand.”
“…Thirty thousand.”
“…Twenty-eight thousand.”
“…Twenty-five thousand.”
Finally, Zheng He clenched his teeth and stamped his foot, “…Twenty thousand.”
dical expenses, ntal anguish, damage to his image, inconvenience at work, etc. – twenty thousand yuan seed like a legitimate and reasonable price to him.
The police officer finally nodded in acknowledgnt and turned to negotiate with the college student who had hit people.
The college student who had hit people was nad Xu Mu.
Xu Mu’s eyes drooped, his fringe slightly long, hanging in front of his forehead, appearing listless, completely devoid of his previous vigor, “I don’t have that much money right now, but I will find a way to pay him.”
He paused, then suddenly looked up at the police officer, “I just have one request, can you… not notify my family?”
But Zheng He did not agree. He had to get the money now, as it was very important to him. Eventually, after relentless badgering by Zheng He, Xu Mu called a classmate with the surna Zhou to front the money for him.
However, the kindergarten was also partly responsible, so Xu Mu did not actually contribute much money.
Before Zhou arrived, he asked Xu Mu if he needed a lawyer to handle the situation, but Xu Mu refused.
Zhou glanced at him, “Had another argunt with your family?”
Xu Mu, hands in pockets, dropped a comnt, “Mind your own business. I’ll pay you back in a few days,” and then walked away.
Zheng He, with twenty thousand yuan in hand, was both excited and exhilarated. Twenty thousand yuan would do. Chen Xixi currently had just over six thousand in hand, with only five days left in the program. It’s unlikely that she can make over ten thousand yuan in five days to surpass him.
The title of Saving King will surely be his in the end!
Just as Zheng He stepped out of the police station and was about to burst into laughter, the pain from his injury turned his face into a mask of agony.
“Damn it! That little brat hits really hard!”
[OMG! Zheng He has now got more than twenty thousand yuan just like that?! That punch was totally worth it!]
[Earning twenty thousand yuan in just one morning! Guys, as soone who earns 4500 yuan a month, I’m feeling tempted…]
[What’s there to be tempted about? It’s not like this money can be earned by just anyone, after all, it’s like betting with your life!]
[Zheng He’s luck has really turned around this ti. He’s been blessed in disguise! He’s no longer the sa Zheng He who only has bad luck!]
[Just hope Zheng He can hold onto this twenty thousand plus yuan and not get scamd again!]
[Done for! How is Chen Xixi going to catch up now? The financial gap is way too big! Zheng He is really about to turn the tables against the wind!]
[Can’t be, can’t be! I just made a bet with my buddy that Chen Xixi would win, losing like this is going to make lose face!]
Inside Chen Xixi’s live streaming room.
After freshening up, Chen Xixi went to the property managent office. She handed over the photo she had just taken and asked with a smile, “I’d like to participate in this event.”
The property staff showed a warm smile: “Sure, all residents of our community can freely participate. Just go according to the ti and location stated on this!”
Chen Xixi: “I’m not a resident, I’m just staying here temporarily, can I still participate?”
Seeing that the young girl was polite and understanding, and also good-looking, which made her particularly likable, the property staff said directly: “Tenants can also participate. If you want to go, just go. Our event is not so strict, but don’t forget to bring your boyfriend with you.”
Romantic Qixi Festival banquet event, which naturally requires couples to attend together.
“Okay, thank you, big brother!” Chen Xixi’s eyes curved into a smile as she sweetly thanked the property staff, then turned and left.
Chen Xixi stepped out of the property office, took out her phone, and forwarded the event photo to Jin Cheng.
「A free al event, but you have to bring your girlfriend. If you really can’t find a date, call and I’ll take you in.」
Lying in bed and playing gas, Jin Cheng saw the ssage from Chen Xixi and imdiately quit the ga to switch to Chen Xixi’s chat.
Jin Cheng frowned slightly. Where was he supposed to find a girlfriend? He didn’t even have female friends.
He hesitated for a long ti before biting the bullet and replied to Chen Xixi with a WeChat ssage: 「I don’t have a girlfriend. How about we pretend to be a couple?」
Chen Xixi quickly replied: 「No need, I have another way to get you in.」
…
Zheng He, with a bruised nose and swollen face, returned to the apartnt with an air of smugness.
Though he had been beaten up, he had gotten twenty thousand yuan!
If he didn’t flaunt it in front of Chen Xixi and the others, making them green with envy and jealousy, then he wouldn’t be Zheng He.
Especially since he had to rile up Chen Xixi, who always used to prance around him.
Back at the apartnt, Zheng He didn’t see his primary target to provoke and imdiately asked, “Where’s Chen Xixi?”
Han Qianyi saw the injury on Zheng He’s face and hurriedly asked with concern, “Are you okay? How did you get hurt on your face?”
Han Qianyi thought to herself, could it be that he went out to show off and got beaten up for it? Serves him right!
Zheng He endured the pain on his face and tried to appear nonchalant: “It’s nothing, just a misunderstanding. The other party has apologized to and compensated with twenty thousand yuan.”
When it ca to the twenty thousand yuan, Zheng He made a special point of emphasizing it.
Han Qianyi and Wan Chen were suddenly shocked: “!!!”
How could Zheng He end up with such a big windfall!
Twenty thousand yuan just like that had increased their average wealth dramatically!
Everyone was equally poor before, but now that Zheng He had suddenly struck it rich, who could bear it?
Han Qianyi regretted not taking advantage of Zheng He’s troubles to “finish him off” and teaming up with Chen Xixi to strike at Zheng He, forcing him out of the show…
