Chapter 157 - Some Kind of Hot Shot? (2/2)
As soon as the line disconnected, Lu Yanxue’s smile disappeared.
“How was it, Xiao Xue?” Miao Xiaoqian asked expectantly.
“Don’t worry, I got this.” Lu Yanxue managed a smile, but she heaved a sigh in her mind.
She had hoped to save this trump card for a moment of life and death. However, she had to waste it over a trifle that hardly involved herself.
Personal favors were limited resources, and unrenewable. She wagered that it would be more difficult for her to ask another favor again in the future.
“Let’s go. I want to see what’s going on outside.” Lu Yanxue gained confidence after she had gotten the old man’s guarantee. Miao Xiaoqian hesitated for a second and then followed her friend off the bus.
Meanwhile, Brother Wu and the others encircled Chen Fan and were arguing with him.
It was evident that the crowd was scared of Tong Shan. He was over two meters tall and a normal person could only reach his waist. If not for the strength in number, they would have run away.
“Hey buddy, aren’t you going to say something? You have hurt my friend after all.”
Seeing the confrontation had reached a standstill, Deng Jun spoke up.
“Say what?” Chen Fan asked calmly.
“My bro wants to exchange seats with you, but you threw him off the bus. Look at his face, all bruised up. You need to apologize and pay for the medical expenses, that’s the least you could do.” Deng Jun said firmly.
The patches of bruises suggested that Brother Wu had landed on his face when he was thrown out of the bus.
“Medical expenses?” Chen Fan crooked his head to one side and asked with a half smile: “I wonder how much do you want?”
“My face is ruined. I need at least ten thousand to fix it.” Brother Wu shouted.
“Ten thousand?” To everyone’s surprise, Chen Fan shook his head and said: “No, that won’t be enough.”
“What do you mean?”
Everyone was taken aback. They have never seen anyone who bargained that way. Brother Wu smiled a little, the thought of a huge compensation made him felt the injury was worth it.
However, Deng Jun pulled a taut face and chided.
“Friend, don’t pull my leg. You are not going to pay anything, aren’t you.”
The other people finally registered Chen Fan’s sarcasm as menacing light burned in their eyes.
“Stop it!”
Suddenly, they heard a female voice.
They looked toward the voice and saw that two gorgeous girls walked off the bus. The one in the front was particularly attractive. Her smooth skin seemed to glow under the sunlight. She was wearing a casual outfit, but the elegance and gracefulness shone through her mundane clothing. She was Lu Yanxue.
“Oh s.h.i.+t! Brother Wu, I was wondering why you got into trouble. Now it all makes sense.”
Everyone’s eyes were br.i.m.m.i.n.g as they examined the two beautiful girls. Brother Wu grinned and then said.
“See? Can you really blame me for hitting on her?” Despite his broken face, Brother Wu managed to display his pride on his face.
Lu Yanxue walked over to the crowd and said: “You are Deng Jun, aren’t you? That is enough, quit it now. We will both forget about this run in.”
“Hey girl, you are not Deng Jun’s girlfriend are you?. If you are, we will even make Brother Wu apologize to you.” Someone jested.
Brother Wu cursed at the speaker with a lighthearted smile. He looked to Deng Jun and noticed the unmistaken look on his face.
Miao Xiaoqian blushed as anger roiled inside of her. However, Lu Yanxue announced calmly.
“Deng Jun, what do you think?”
Deng Jun said slowly: “Just apologize, and we will let the matter slide.”
Lu Yanxue hesitated for a second. It was better if she could avert the crisis by herself than using the old man’s personal favor. She looked to Chen Fan and heard him speaking to Deng Jun.
“Very well. If your friend kowtows to me then I will forgive him.”
