A sweet scolding successfully stopped Chen's father.
"This medicine costs more than fifty. You killed the person, but the medicine is mine. Pay me five hundred!"
Chen Caiyun's mind was buzzing. She turned around to look at the bright-eyed girl. "It was wrong of us to cause the old man to faint, but what you're doing is blackmail."
"That's right! What kind of medicine costs five hundred? Why don't you just rob it?" Father Chen said.
"Oh~ You are allowed to buy a house for a thousand, but I am not allowed to sell medicine for five hundred? I don't care. If I say five hundred, then the price of this medicine is five hundred. If you sell it for a penny less, you can't leave today!" Who doesn't know how to fight back and force things to happen?
"Yes! Just five hundred!" Xiao Hai put his hands on his hips and laughed, "Our medicine is life-saving. Five hundred is considered merciful. If this old man dies, you will have to pay one life for another. Five hundred is not a solution. Hey, don't you think so?" He asked the crowd at the door in a familiar manner.
"Right, right, right! Report it directly to the police. We are all witnesses!"
When he heard they were going to report the incident to the police, Father Chen's mind raced. "Oh, no, no, we'll compensate you, but five hundred is really too much. How can medicine be so expensive? Besides, how do I know they're not ganging up on me? How did they just happen to run into me and have medicine on them? He was unconscious just now, and he recovered all of a sudden?" He looked at the old man who had regained consciousness with a guilty conscience. "I just gave you a hand, and you fell to the ground. You can't blame me for this, right? So, I'll compensate you fifty, and I won't buy the house. Old man, think carefully, these fifty yuan are two months' salary for an ordinary worker!"
The old man covered his chest and pointed at him, trembling and unable to speak.
"You have to pay compensation, old man, and you have to buy my medicine too! Otherwise, don't even think about leaving!" Xia Youyou had seen enough, it was so shameless! "I said five hundred, that's five hundred! Brother Xiao Hai, go get my brother! My brother is the police!" Once!
"Understood, sir!" Xiao Hai walked outside proudly. Everyone automatically made way for him and quickly closed in.
Xia Youyou turned her back and laughed secretly, and Qi Siling had no choice but to step forward to block her trembling body from laughing.
Chen Caiyun looked at the tall man in front of her, a little dazed. She still didn't understand why he was here. The newspaper in her previous life clearly said that he had gone to the south.
Qi Siling didn't quite understand the look in her eyes. "Do you know me?"
Xia Youyou held onto his waist and peeked out from behind. It was that same look again...
She tilted her head to examine the woman before her. Her clothes weren't the grayish equivalent of modern clothes. Instead, they resembled the clothing worn in Hong Kong in the 1980s. It would be considered a bit bourgeois nowadays. Wasn't she afraid of being reported?
Chen Caiyun shook her head subconsciously, then noticed her scrutiny and glanced at the two of them. They looked like a couple, but...
"No! Old man, how about this? I'll just pay you a hundred dollars. What do you think? A hundred dollars is enough!" Father Chen was a little anxious when he saw the man leave directly.
The farce continued, and Chen Caiyun came back to her senses. "Dad, take out the money."
"Right, right!" He pulled a dozen Great Unity notes from his bag and counted out ten. "Here, if you say a hundred, it's a hundred. Can you let us go now?" Father Chen handed the money to the tall man.
Qi Siling didn't answer and turned around to look at the little girl.
Xia Youyou stopped pestering him and reached out to take the money. "Okay, you guys can go now."
When Father Chen saw her accept the money, he glanced at her with disdain and said, "Little girl, don't be too greedy. It's not a good habit to be greedy for money!"
Qi Siling looked at him sternly, "Look, you want to eat peanuts!"
Chen Caiyun grabbed her father and stopped him from talking.
"Do you live here?" She remembered that his old house was near Shichahai.
Qi Siling didn't even glance at her. She turned around to block Xia Youyou and rubbed her little head.
Seeing his attitude, Chen Caiyun felt a little disappointed and followed her father out of the crowd.
After squeezing out of the crowd, the man who had gone out to look for someone had already arrived, followed by an even taller and more imposing man.
Now she was even more surprised.
What's going on? She's reborn, but have the others been reborn too? Why are all the big guys gathered here? They seem to know each other?
"Hey, Brother Cao, it's these two." Xiao Hai pointed at them when he saw people pushing out. "These two are the ones who forced the old man to buy his house and refused to leave even if he refused to sell it!"
Father Chen was so frightened by Cao An that his legs went weak and he quickly backed away. "No, no, we didn't buy it. It's all a misunderstanding!"
Cao An stepped forward with his hands on his hips. "It's a misunderstanding, what are you afraid of?" He glanced at the dazed woman and then at the man in the suit. Turning back, he asked Xiao Hai, "Where's the person?"
"He's inside." Xiao Hai pointed at the crowd. The crowd was frightened when they saw Cao An and quickly made way, revealing the person inside.
"Brother~" Xia Youyou's eyes lit up and she went up to pull his arm.
Cao An really couldn't do anything with her, so he helped her stand steady. "Can you please be more steady?"
Qi Siling followed out, also looking disapproving.
"Are the old men okay?" Cao An glanced inside, and the two old men helped each other to stand up and followed him out.
"It's okay, they paid the money."
Xia Youyou put the big unity in her hand into the old man's hand, "Here, here's the money. If you meet people like this again in the future, just report to the police. I don't believe they can't be dealt with!" After saying that, she glanced at the middle-aged man, raised her little face, imitated his previous look, and gave him a disdainful look.
"We don't want it. This is your medicine money. Keep it for yourself, little girl." The old man refused to accept it.
Xia Youyou retracted her hand and said, "I told you I'd give it to you, so just take it. Grandpa's health isn't good, so I'll buy you some delicious food to nourish him."
Chen Caiyun felt a bit surreal. Why were these two former life bosses here at Huada? And they looked so familiar? Clearly, in their past lives, they lived in different places, one in the south and the other in the north, never having crossed paths. Was it... because of that girl?
Chen's father took his daughter home while no one was paying attention.
Xia Youyou noticed it and stopped trying to stop him. The crowd dispersed, and Xia Youyou helped the old man back into the house.
"What's going on? There was something wrong with the look in that woman's eyes just now!" Cao An and Qi Siling leaned together, and Xiao Hai also came over.
"We ran into this before when we bought a restaurant. Something was wrong. Youyou said that woman should know me, but I'm sure I've never seen her." Qi Siling was also puzzled and looked at Xiao Hai. "You've been with me all the time. Do you know that woman?"
Xiao Hai shook his head violently, "I don't know! There's not even a female mosquito around Brother Qi!" They grew up together, what wouldn't he know?
"Have you encountered this before?" Cao An crossed his arms and looked at the little girl in the house, who was still pushing the old man away.
"It's similar to today. They wanted to force the purchase, but they only offered 500." Qi Siling shrugged and said, "Today I'm a bit more generous, offering 1,000."
