Aunt Zhou's husband stood at the door with a knife, letting the flames leap up.
Chen Xiaofan jumped off the motorcycle and rushed forward, shouting, "Damn it, they actually set fire to my warehouse!"
Before he could even kick the man, the man went berserk, brandishing a dagger and charging straight at Chen Xiaofan.
"I told you not to meddle in other people's business."
Normally, Aunt Zhou's husband would be no match for Chen Xiaofan, but at this moment he was a desperate man who no longer cared about his own life, let alone the lives of others.
Chen Xiaofan saw the man chasing after him like a madman and stabbed him with a dagger.
Aunt Zhou, who had been crying and sobbing on the side, was so frightened that her hands trembled. She couldn't bear to watch her husband kill someone. From now on, her two children would be looked down upon wherever they went if word got out that their father was a murderer.
She picked up the thick wooden plank from the ground, gritted her teeth, and smashed it against the back of the man's head.
The man's vision went black for a moment, and he collapsed to the ground, unable to get up.
Chen Xiaofan was quite frightened by the man who had just gone mad, but then he thought of his own warehouse.
The sky was ablaze with fire and thick black smoke.
Jiang Xue coughed violently from the fumes. The fire at the door was too intense. When they saw Aunt Zhou's husband being beaten to the ground, Ji Chen picked up Jiang Xue and prepared to rush out.
Sharp-eyed Jiang Xue noticed that Ji Chen seemed to have put the money down. "Put me down, put me down, I didn't take the money."
Ji Chen then remembered that he had brought a large sum of money with him. He quickly took the money and picked up Jiang Xue.
As soon as I rushed out of the warehouse, I saw police cars coming one after another.
When Jiang Xue saw Gu Xiaoling arrive, she quickly realized that it was Aunt Zhou who had taken it upon herself to call Ji Chen. Jiang Xue wasn't angry or anything; the goal was to rescue her anyway, and she didn't bother to think about anything else. At least she had her life protected.
Jiang Xue and Chen Xiaofan explained the whole story.
Although the fire in the warehouse was extinguished, it was completely destroyed.
After the police left, Chen Xiaofan looked at Jiang Xue and said, "Tell me how you plan to cover my losses. I'm short of money right now."
Ji Chen glanced coldly at Chen Xiaofan, took out five hundred yuan from his bag, and said, "Consider this money as compensation. Don't go around flirting with other girls like that in the future."
"Five hundred is all you're going to do with me? You think you can get rid of a beggar? If it weren't for me, this little beauty would be dead by now."
Chen Xiaofan had his hands in his pockets, staring at Ji Chen with a nonchalant air. He really wanted to take the money, but he wanted a higher amount, even an extra hundred or two would be nice.
Jiang Xue glared at Ji Chen, annoyed. "Why give him money? I'm a victim too. Let that man pay for it."
Aunt Zhou, who had been crying and sobbing on the side, cried even louder when she heard that she had to pay compensation. "I will find a way to compensate you."
Chen Xiaofan suddenly felt uneasy. This aunt was, after all, his savior. If it came to compensation, there wasn't much money to be paid. But Ji Chen was thinking of extorting as much as possible.
"Okay, okay, we'll talk about it later. I'm going to get busy now."
He got on his motorcycle, and before leaving, he said to Jiang Xue, "You said it, right? Be my little lover, I'll come to your house tomorrow." He whistled defiantly at Jiang Xue.
Since the last time she overheard Sun Ze'an saying those words to her in the shop, it was a complete shock to her. After investigating, she found out that the two of them were a fake couple, and they hadn't even been together for two years. Divorce was just a matter of time.
