Chapter 443 My reputation is not given by you
The middle-aged man supported the old woman and stared at Qiao Xi in a bad tone and said, "What else do you want to do?"
Qiao Xi's face was cold and gloomy: "Old Chen, call the police! They say someone is blackmailing us for 500,000 yuan. How can such a big thing be settled privately?"
"Yes, Madam!"
Lao Chen immediately took out his cell phone to call the police.
The middle-aged man panicked and blurted out: "How can you go back on your word? Aren't you afraid of damaging your reputation?"
Qiao Xi said, "I earned my reputation myself, not from you." She glanced at Lu Yingxue, who was surrounded by a large crowd and could not be seen, and said, "It was not created by marketing."
"If your mother is really injured, we will go to the police station to settle the matter privately. I will give you this 500,000 yuan, and I will also give you a gift as compensation and apology. If she is not injured, then it is you who are extorting money. The 500,000 yuan has already been deposited into your account, and the evidence is conclusive! Young Master Sun, how many years will you be sentenced for extorting 500,000 yuan?"
Qiao Xi had just checked during the chaos and found that the old lady had no fractures and her pulse was very stable.
Sun Weimeng was very proud. He checked the legal provisions on his phone and said in a clear voice, "Five hundred thousand yuan will be punished by more than ten years in prison! Brother, do you want to go to jail?"
"I……"
The middle-aged man's face turned livid.
The half a million in the phone is like a hot potato. These people are so cunning.
You could have called the police right away, but you had to wait until he received the money before calling the police!
This is clearly sending him to jail!
Qiao Xi pressed on: "Do you dare to go to the police station with us and let your mother examine the injuries? You have pestered us not to check the dashcam, and we personally have no right to retrieve the roadside surveillance. But the police station has this right, why don't we go to the police station and talk it out?"
The faces of the middle-aged man and the old lady turned pale and blue. The old lady subconsciously wanted to run away but was caught by Old Chen.
Qiao Xi sneered and said, "Old lady, was it your left leg or your right leg that you just injured? How come you can walk suddenly?"
The old lady's hair was gray and she didn't know which of her two legs to advance.
Her eyes rolled around. "I... I just twisted it a little, I'm fine now. We just got scared, don't let you pay for it!"
Passersby sighed: "This is a scammer who stole half a million dollars!"
"The world is becoming more corrupt and people's hearts are no longer the same as they used to be. No wonder people nowadays don't dare to help an elderly person who has fallen down. It's people like you who have created this trend!"
"You're still trying to blackmail a girl. You must be sent to the police!"
"I was wondering how the disciple of the national doctor Cheng Han could be so stupid! I didn't expect that there would be a sudden turn of events and a plan in advance. It's really refreshing!"
The old lady shrank her head and was held tightly by Lao Chen.
When the middle-aged man heard that he would be sentenced to more than ten years in prison for half a million yuan, he immediately lost his composure and begged Qiao Xi: "Can I transfer the money to you and let this go? I was blind and I apologize."
As he spoke, he transferred the money back to Qiao Xi's account, saying in a flattering manner: "Look, the money has been transferred."
Qiao Xi glanced at her phone, then looked up at him: "Where's your apology? You just loudly slandered us, so now you should apologize loudly. Do I need to find you a loud speaker?"
“No, no.”
The middle-aged man was resentful in his heart, but he still apologized in a flattering voice, "It's my own fault, Hu Laoer, for bullying a stranger from another place! I directed and acted out this scene myself, and I deserve it! I apologize to you, please forgive me!"
The grandson said arrogantly, "And your grandpa, won't I apologize to you?"
The middle-aged man swallowed his anger and said, just for Qiao Xi to prevent him from going to jail: "Grandpa, I was wrong! You are so kind, but I was blind. I will never offend you next time."
"Get lost!"
"Okay, I'm leaving now."
He was preparing to leave with his mother with a licking face, but Qiao Xi's voice urging him to die rang out again.
"etc."
He wanted to cry but had no tears. He turned around and looked at her obediently: "Auntie, what do you want me to do?"
Qiao Xi walked forward and looked at him: "Tell the people behind you that I accept this intimidation. Don't use such tricks next time. If you have the ability, use open tactics. These tricks are like rats in the gutter that cannot stand the light, and they are also like dead flies that disgust people, dirty and smelly."
She usually spoke in a gentle and soft voice, but when she arrived in the imperial capital and left Huo Xingzhou, it was as if she had suddenly grown a thin layer of armor and learned how to protect her soft self.
A lot tougher.
Even Lao Chen and Sun Weimeng were a little surprised when they saw it.
Hu Laoer and the old lady left in shame.
Young Master Sun patted Qiao Xi's shoulder and said softly, "It seems that some people in the capital don't welcome us very much, so they made arrangements for us as soon as we arrived."
Qiao Xi's expression was a little cold: "We were originally mortal enemies."
She will never forget how desperate she was the night her grandmother died.
Now Master Cheng's whereabouts are unknown. Qiao Xi finds it hard not to wonder if the Lu and Xiang families were behind this. Anyway, they are always insidious and cunning, but they have a great reputation in the imperial capital and are believed by everyone.
She looked at the crowded square again. How could this be a free clinic?
It's clearly a pilgrimage.
The Lu family wanted to make Lu Yingxue a god, a living Guanyin who saves people from suffering!
But it is undeniable that Lu Yingxue is very talented!
Qiao Xi did not dare to underestimate any opponent who entered the Imperial Capital Needle Testing Conference, especially Lu Yingxue who became famous in the Needle Testing Conference ten years ago!
"Let's go, get in the car first. I also want to go to Cat Alley, but this road is too congested and I've been delayed for quite some time." She could have sent the two people directly to the police station, but it would have wasted a lot of energy and time, so she gave up.
It's obvious that someone is behind it. Even if they are sent in, they will be kicked out soon.
There's no need to waste time with them.
Sun Weimeng got on the car with a lot of curses. He was always very impressive in Haicheng, but he felt the difference when he arrived in the imperial capital. People here didn't know the son of a real estate tycoon in Haicheng, and they didn't give him face.
A little angry!
Qiao Xi's mood was much calmer.
She had been prepared to be harassed before she came, but she didn't expect it to come so soon. It seemed that the imperial capital was even less welcoming to her than she had imagined!
I don’t know what Master Cheng experienced here that led him to choose to retire!
She put aside her chaotic thoughts and said, "Old Chen, drive the car."
"Okay, Madam."
The car slowly left the busy and crowded road, and the hustle and bustle of the square gradually faded away.
The atmosphere in the street cafe is particularly cold.
Lu Yan, who originally had a smug and contemptuous look on his face, now gritted his teeth and looked at the timid middle-aged man Hu Laoer in front of him.
"She said she was going to sue you for blackmail, and you're afraid? The worst that can happen is that we'll fight her to death!"
Hu Lao Er's face turned pale. "Master Lu, that woman looks weak, but she is really powerful! Five hundred thousand will cost you a long time in jail, and she waited until I received the money before she started to make trouble! I am just a nobody, how dare I confront her head-on! And she...she also said..."
"What did she say!"
Hu Lao Er said vaguely: "She said that the people behind me were like rats in the gutter, annoying flies!"
Bang!
Lu Yan threw the coffee cup in his hand to the ground. The remaining coffee liquid splashed all over the floor, and the fragments accidentally cut Hu Laoer's leg.
Hu Laoer didn't dare to say a word, not even to breathe.
