Chapter 1362 What were you doing so early?
Because they hadn't rested yet, they hadn't locked the door yet, and Peng Xiaoman and the others thought it was a doctor, so they called him in directly.
When they saw that it was a strange man, Peng Xiaoman and her brother were stunned. Peng Xiaoman asked, "Excuse me, who are you?"
However, Liu Yue was also stunned when he saw that Peng Xinghao was actually awake and looked fine.
Isn't the injury serious? Why does it look like it's not serious? Hearing Peng Xiaoman's question, Liu Yue reacted and said, "Hello, my name is Liu Yue. The Zeng family entrusted me to talk to you about this matter."
Liu Yue didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
When they heard that it was the Zeng family, Peng Xiaoman and Peng Xinghao's faces immediately darkened, revealing their resentment without disguising it. At the same time, they also roughly knew what the other party wanted to discuss, so Peng Xiaoman refused without thinking: "We have nothing to discuss with the Zeng family. If you want to talk, go to the police or the court."
Peng Xiaoman and her brother naturally knew about Zeng Kai's arrest. It was Gu Ning who told them. Gu Ning said that the higher-ups had already agreed and would deal with him according to the law.
For this, the siblings were extremely grateful to Gu Ning.
Talk to the police or the court? That's not going to work. If it worked, he wouldn't have come.
Although Peng Xiaoman had refused to talk, Liu Yue was still unwilling to give up and continued, "Ms. Peng, Mr. Peng, I know this matter is unfair to you, so you are right to feel resentful. However, we will give you generous compensation. As long as you can give up the lawsuit, the Zeng family is willing to pay you two million as compensation."
Hearing this, Peng Xiaoman and Peng Xinghao did not show any joy or greed. Although the two million was definitely a sky-high price for them, they were not the kind of people who only cared about money. Dignity was also very important.
So, after hearing this, Peng Xiaoman and Peng Xinghao were not only unhappy, but also very angry.
"You come to us now that something happened. What were you doing before? If you had not evaded responsibility at the beginning and took the initiative to pay money to save my brother's life, we would not pursue it. But now, it's too late. Evading responsibility is an aggravated crime. So, let alone two million, even twenty million can't be let off." Peng Xiaoman said indignantly.
Yes, because they knew they could not fight against the Zeng family, so as long as the Zeng family was willing to pay compensation and save Peng Xinghao, not to mention two million, they would compromise even if it was 500,000.
But now it’s different, because Peng Xinghao, who was ignored by the Zeng family, is dead. The current Peng Xinghao was saved by Gu Ning.
Therefore, the Zeng family is unforgivable.
Hearing this, Liu Yue frowned slightly. Although he had thought about the possible result, he was still unwilling to accept it: "Ms. Peng, Mr. Peng is fine now anyway, why are you still holding on to him! If you give in, your surgery will only cost 200,000 or 300,000 yuan, and you still have more than one million!"
Liu Yue's words angered Peng Xiaoman and Peng Xinghao even more. Peng Xiaoman said angrily, "Anyway, everything is fine now? You really are talking without any pain! It's not because you are fine, so your sins cannot be reduced."
Peng Xinghao could no longer remain calm and angrily said, "Do you think money is omnipotent? How about I kill you and give you two million, are you willing?"
"You..." Liu Yue was furious, but he also knew that the Zeng family was in the wrong in this matter, so he did not dare to turn against them.
"Go away!" Peng Xiaoman ordered them to leave.
"Ms. Peng..." Liu Yue wanted to say something, but Zhou Weifan walked over and said, "Mr. Liu, please leave, or don't blame me for being rude."
Zhou Weifan came to protect Peng Xiaoman and her brother, so it was not appropriate for him to interfere in their private affairs, which was why he did not show up immediately. Now that Peng Xiaoman had asked to drive them away and the other party had no intention of leaving, he could not help but be moved.
Zhou Weifan was tall and strong, and he looked murderous, which frightened Liu Yue, so even though he was unwilling, he had to leave.
"Wait..." Liu Yue had just taken a few steps when he was stopped by Peng Xiaoman.
Liu Yue paused, thinking that things were turning around, but just as he had this thought, Peng Xiaoman's next words were like a bucket of cold water poured down on him... "Take your things away," Peng Xiaoman said, criticizing the things Liu Yue brought. Looking at the things Liu Yue brought, she felt very uncomfortable and disgusted.
Liu Yue was so angry that he almost choked on his breath, but there was nothing he could do, so he could only take his things and leave.
After Liu Yue left, Peng Xiaoman called Gu Ning and told her about this.
Although the Zeng family did not come to persuade Peng Xiaoman and her brother this time, if Zhou Weifan was not there, who knows what threats or other things would happen! If Zhou Weifan was not there, Peng Xiaoman and Peng Xinghao would not be so confident!
Because one of them is a weak woman who can't even tie a chicken, and the other is a wounded person. If a grown man wants to do something, how much strength do they have to resist!
Therefore, Gu Ning made the right choice by asking Zhou Weifan to guard the place.
After Liu Yue returned to the car, he did not drive away immediately. Instead, he called Zeng Lichang first and said that it had not worked out and they did not agree.
"What? They are indifferent to two million?" Although Zeng Lichang had not been confident of success, he thought that there should be a chance for the fifth level. However, when he heard the other party's refusal, he still found it hard to accept.
Two million is a huge sum of money for people like them at the bottom of society, but they are not tempted at all.
"Is it useless to threaten?" Zeng Lichang asked.
Zeng Lichang asked Liu Yue to negotiate peace with a good attitude first, and if the other party was unwilling, he should threaten him.
Of course, Zeng Lichang doesn’t know what kind of person is behind Peng Xiaoman and her brother. If he knew, he wouldn’t have made such threatening remarks.
"There was a man in the ward, he was tall and strong, and looked fierce. He should be a bodyguard or something like that, so I didn't dare to say anything more." Liu Yue said, with some lingering fear.
Zeng Lichang was furious, but there was nothing he could do, so he just let it go and let Liu Yue go home and rest first.
At ten o'clock the next morning, Gu Ning received a call from Chen Darong, saying that he and three employees in the store had been having nightmares, feeling listless, pale, weak and cold in the past few days, but after going to the hospital for a check-up, nothing was wrong.
So, he associated it with unclean things.
After following Gu Ning, Chen Darong learned that there really are unclean antiques, and he also learned what symptoms those unclean things will cause in people.
