Chapter 108 - Chapter 108: A Group Attack
Lin Xi and Han Jiarui slept exceptionally soundly.
In the morning, Lin Xi and Han Jiarui woke up to a commotion.
Han Jiarui looked outside with dissatisfaction.
“Lin Xi, what is your Chen Che doing so early in the morning?’ Lin Xi shook her head and looked out of the window, but she couldn’t see what was happening outside.
“I don’t know. I’ll go out and take a look.”
With that, Lin Xi got up and got dressed.
Han Jiarui was worried and also wanted to get dressed.
“Jiarui, it’s still early. Rest for a while. I’ll be back shortly after taking a look.”
Before Han Jiarui could say anything, Lin Xi had already left.
When Lin Xi arrived at the courtyard, she saw some people from the village standing with Chen Che.
Everyone surrounded Lin Qiang and Hou Cuihua.
Lin Xi quickly stepped forward and pulled Chen Che’s arm.
“Chen Che, what’s wrong?”
Hearing Chen Che’s explanation, Lin Xi finally knew what had happened.
Lin Qiang and his mother came over early in the morning to create a commotion.
They said that Chen Che and the others had stolen their chicken last night.
He wanted Chen Che to pay up. Otherwise, they would not let this go.
The villagers woke up early. When they heard the commotion, they all came over to see what was going on.
Seeing that it was Lin Qiang and his mother who were causing trouble, they surrounded them.
Lin Xi frowned and looked at Lin Qiang and his mother.
“We didn’t steal your chickens. What evidence do you have?”
When Lin Qiang saw that it was Lin Xi, he immediately changed to a cheeky smile.
“Little beauty, you still don’t understand Chen Che.”
“This kid has been to pilfer, to philander since he was young. Who in the village hasn’t let Chen Che steal?”
Hou Cuihua chimed in.
“My son is right. Chen Che has no parents since he was young. He commits theft all the time in the village.”
“He was caught by the villagers before. After so many years, Chen Che is still stealing from others like this.”
Chen Che looked at the mother and son indifferently.
“The villagers know who are the ones who steal from the village.”
Hou Cuihua was like a dog whose tail had been stepped on. She immediately shouted.
“Chen Che, what do you mean?”
“Who are you talking about? Our family never steals!”
When the surrounding people heard this, they looked at Lin Qiang and Hou Cuihua strangely. Han Jiarui happened to walk out. When she heard this, she couldn’t help but laugh. Wasn’t this clearly a thief posing as a judge?
When Lin Qiang saw that it was Han Jiarui, his expression instantly darkened.
Yesterday, it was this little girl who gave them trouble. Now, she actually dared to laugh?
Lin Qiang widened his eyes and stared fiercely at Han Jiarui.
“What are you laughing at? Did you steal it with Chen Che?”
Han Jiarui was stunned when she heard this. Steal? Steal what? Steal someone?
Thinking of this, Han Jiarui instantly blushed.
Lin Qiang saw that Han Jiarui’s face was slightly red and pointed at Han Jiarui. “Look, this young lady’s expression is not right. I was right.”
The villagers all looked at Han Jiarui, who hurriedly explained.
“No, I just woke up in the morning and wasn’t feeling well.”
Hou Cuihua shouted from the side.
“What do you mean by not feeling well? There’s clearly a problem.”
“You all know what Chen Che was like in the past.”
The netizens in the live-stream started discussing.
[Our Old Scrooge Chen is worth at least billions.
Why would he steal your chicken?]
[Are these mother and son trying to blackmail Chen Che?]
[Chen Che and the others went home after watching the stars so late yesterday. We were all watching!]
[That’s right. I don’t have time to steal chickens!]
The villagers also knew what Lin Qiang and his mother wanted to do.
Mrs. Li couldn’t stand it anymore and stood up.
...
“Hou Cuihua, we all know what happened in the past.”
“Little Che has just returned with his friends.
Don’t cause trouble.”
When the villagers heard this, they started talking.
“That’s right. Lin Qiang, don’t we know what kind of person you are?”
“Didn’t we investigate everything that happened to Chen Che when he was young in the end? Aren’t you and your mother afraid of embarrassing yourselves? Do you have to let us tell you?”
“Cui Hua, take your son home quickly. Stop embarrassing yourselves here.”
“Why are you two scumbags in the village?”
When Hou Cuihua heard everyone’s words, her expression changed drastically.
Hou Cuihua was clearly from the village, so why were the villagers helping Chen Che now?
Hou Cuihua’s face darkened as she scanned the crowd.
...
“I’m from this village. How can you help outsiders?”
“If you don’t let me live well, none of you shall dream of having a peaceful life.”
When the villagers heard this, they immediately lowered their heads. No one dared to look at Hou Cuihua.
After all, everyone knew what kind of person Hou Cuihua was.
Offending Hou Cuihua was equivalent to not having peace in the future.
Not considering petty theft, Hou Cuihua would go as far as to throw a tantrum in the courtyard.
When Lin Qiang saw everyone lowering their heads, he immediately became smug.
In this village, as long as the mother and son were still around, everyone would lower their heads.
The netizens in the live-stream were indignant.
[What kind of society is this now? There’s actually such a village tyrant?]
[Hurry up and call the police. This is the basically bullying.]
[Now that the crackdown of such bullies is taken so seriously, yet this mother and son duo still dare to commit crimes.]
[We have to call the police and deal with this matter seriously.]
Chen Che could not be bothered to continue arguing with Lin Qiang and his mother. In a while, he still had to bring Lin Xi to the river to play.
“Lin Qiang, leave with your mother.”
Lin Qiang raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Che in disdain. “If you pay up, we’ll naturally leave.” Money was a small matter, but once he paid, wouldn’t it be equivalent to admitting it?
Lin Xi was also a little angry. She didn’t expect such a shameless person to exist. “Why do we have to pay for anything. If we can’t leave now, we’ll call the police.”
Lin Qiang immediately laughed. “Call the police. They’ll catch you thieves.”
Chen Che frowned. Lin Qiang was actually not afraid of calling the police? There must be something wrong with this abnormality. Lin Qiang and his mother must have done something.
Han Jiarui immediately took out her phone and was about to call the police. Hou Cuihua was a country bumpkin after all.
When she saw that Han Jiarui was really preparing to call the police, she immediately panicked.
Hou Cuihua pointed at Han Jiarui. “Little b*tch, what are you trying to do? Hurry up and compensate us.” Han Jiarui glanced at Hou Cuihua.
“To the police, of course. Whether we stole it or not, we’ll know when we investigate.” Lin Qiang sneered and took out his phone.
“You don’t need to call the police. I’ve already done so. They’ll be here in a while.” Not long after, a police car really arrived.
Two police officers got out of the car and walked in.
Chen Che looked at the two police officers and clearly felt that something was wrong. Moreover, Chen Che felt that the two of them were very familiar, but he could not remember where he had seen them before.
