"My driver's got an emergency at home, so he left. I drove here to buy something to eat. The car was parked in the space, and I'd already gotten out, then that guy suddenly ran over and crashed into my car!"

"Then, this person claimed I hit his brother with my car and wouldn't let me leave. These two guys are clearly looking for trouble."

Chen Xi spoke to Zhou Hanyu through tears.

"I know, isn't this a classic false accusation! It's alright, don't be scared, just call the police immediately."

Zhou Hanyu said as she took out her phone from her pocket.

"Miss, if you didn't see what happened, don't speak carelessly! What false accusation? This little beauty here hit my brother with her car."

"After hitting someone, she still wants to leave. Of course, we're not letting that happen. If you want to call the police, go ahead, but you'll see, my brother's leg is broken—she might get arrested when the police arrive."

The man said deliberately to scare Chen Xi.

"Hanyu, forget it. At worst, let's give them some money and be done with it. Otherwise, if it drags on, it won't be good either."

Chen Xi, now in a complete panic, said timidly.

"So what do you want then? How much money do you want?"

Zhou Hanyu looked at the man and asked.

Except for Yang Yan, no one noticed the playful smirk in her eyes.

"Money? What do you take us for? A hundred thousand, not a penny less."

The man licked his lips greedily as he looked at Zhou Hanyu.

"A hundred thousand? Why don't you just rob someone? Do you really think you are something special?"

Hearing the price of a hundred thousand, Zhou Hanyu shouted back, quickly shooting a glance at Yang Yan.

Yang Yan chuckled inwardly; it seemed it was his time to shine.

However, he felt it wasn't the right time just yet, thinking he should wait a little longer.

"Miss, that's not how you should say it. My brother's leg is broken, so he can't work and has to go home to recover. But he still needs to eat, right? And what about his wife and kids?"

"There's a saying, a hundred days to mend the bones and muscles, and his leg is broken. Do you think a hundred thousand is a lot? I even think it's too little!"

The man scoffed coldly.

"Ha! Xixi, it seems this bastard has made up his mind. Since that's the case, let's just call the police and not indulge them."

"Besides, the car has a dashcam. Whatever happened, the police will find out once they arrive."

Seeing that Yang Yan hadn't acted, Zhou Hanyu said with a cold smile.

With Yang Yan as her trump card, she wasn't afraid of what tricks the other side would play.

She even hoped the troublemaker would cause more fuss—a harsher lesson for them would be immensely satisfying.

"Ha! Call them, go ahead! I'm not scared of you."

The man said disdainfully, looking unfazed.

"Tut tut! With your eloquence, you're overqualified for extortion. You'd make a great salesman, easily earning over ten thousand a month!"

Yang Yan slowly walked to Zhou Hanyu and Chen Xi's side, staring intently at the man.

"Kid, who are you? I suggest you step back, trying to play hero? Aren't you afraid you'll end up a fool?"

The man frowned, gesturing a fist at Yang Yan and said viciously.

"Oh! Are you trying to scare me? I'm so scared!"

Yang Yan patted his chest on purpose, but his expression was full of disdain.

"Damn it, it's a strange day—first that old hag and now you, this fool who doesn't know his place?"

The man finished speaking and walked towards Yang Yan, swinging a fist at him.

With a dull thud, the man staggered and fell heavily to the ground.

He clutched his stomach, his face twisted in pain, unable to speak for a while.

Someone quickly ran to his side and asked anxiously:

"Big brother, are you okay!"

"Hit him, beat him to death."

The man managed to catch his breath, glaring fiercely at Yang Yan and said viciously.

As soon as the man spoke, someone pulled out a steel pipe and charged at Yang Yan.

"I can't stand you extortionists, no skills whatsoever. And such poor manners, can't even scam properly, and then resort to violence."

Yang Yan spoke while charging at the group himself.

Aah!

Accompanied by a series of screams, in less than ten seconds, the ground was already filled with people lying down.

Yang Yan clapped his hands, looked at them coldly, and said calmly:

"With battle power as weak as you guys, you dare to imitate others? Truly courting death!"

"Big brother, we are wrong, we admit defeat, please spare us this time, we won't dare again."

The man crouching on the ground, seeing his followers easily overpowered by Yang Yan, spoke shamelessly.

"Well done!"

The crowd watching burst into cheers.

They usually wouldn't dare provoke these thugs; not a single person stepped up to speak for justice just now.

However, it didn't stop them from cheering genuinely after seeing the thugs get beaten.

At this moment, the police arrived.

Looking at the crowd lying on the ground and then at Yang Yan standing among them, they asked:

"What's going on here?"

"Officer, they attacked us, officer help, they're hitting us."

Seeing the police, the man quickly crawled over and grabbed one of the officer's legs.

Whoa!

This guy is something else!

Not becoming an actor is really a waste.

With such reflexes and acting skills, aiming for an acting award would be a piece of cake.

Watching the same man who just begged him now sobbing hysterically to the police about his miserable experience, Yang Yan couldn't help but marvel internally.

"Mr. Yang, is that you? What are you doing here?"

At this moment, a police officer suddenly asked Yang Yan in surprise.

"Liu Jun? What are you doing here?"

Yang Yan didn't expect that the one getting out of the police car was someone familiar, Detective Liu Jun, from the link-the-dots murder case.

"I've been on a break lately, but I'm used to being busy, so I can't sit still. Came out with these guys for some patrols."

Liu Jun said with a smile.

"Step aside, don't surround the area."

A commotion was heard outside as Yang Yan looked over—it was the traffic police arriving.

It seemed they had responded to Zhou Hanyun's call and came over.

"What's going on here?"

The traffic police looked puzzledly at the people lying on the ground.

The people on the ground didn't look like they were involved in a traffic accident, more like they had been beaten up.

"Officer, that woman hit someone and wanted to run."

The man, who was just crying, seemed to recover quickly.

He realized that Yang Yan was familiar with these police, which is why he hoped the traffic police would handle it.

Looking at the villain who filed the report first, Yang Yan sneered:

"The forest's big enough; it indeed has all kinds of birds! Such skill in reversing black and white, I'm impressed. But since this is the case, make sure you don't regret it later!"
