Chapter 241: Mrs. Mu may have some difficulty getting pregnant in the future.
The street thugs hit without restraint, watching him sink with a smile, as if they were witnessing the most amusing thing.Nan Wan had no time to think further, she ran to the riverbank, took off her coat, and jumped in.
The river in the deep winter night was deep and cold, a coldness that could consume one’s blood.
When she found the unconscious Sheng Yichen, it was after she came up for air three times.
The girl knelt on the shore, her hair messy and sticking to her face, tears had long blurred her eyes, and she used all her strength to pull an unresponsive big boy out of the water.
She knew the basic first-aid methods, but both her reason and spirit were not present. Looking at the pale and weakly breathing Sheng Yichen, all that was left in her mind was panic and fear.
Only by biting hard on her own hand could she regain a bit of sanity.
Clearing the objects from the mouth, artificial respiration, draining the water...
All her attention was on Sheng Yichen, completely unaware of Nan Wan, who, exhausted and unconscious, was sliding down the riverbank.
...
Huo Yihan’s car rear-ended the car in front of him, and the owner was a woman in her forties, older but quite sharp.
Knowing it was Huo Yihan’s fault, she wouldn’t let it go easily, and demanded exorbitantly, "Five hundred thousand, not a cent less or you can’t leave."
If it were before, Huo Yihan might have just paid without a word, but he was in an extremely foul mood tonight, too lazy to even get out of the car, his face showing nothing but indifference, "I’m not leaving today."
The woman put her hands on her waist, her somewhat plump body leaning against the dented car rear, "Alright, let’s wait it out."
The meaning was clear: if you don’t pay, I won’t move, and if I don’t move, you can’t either.
Huo Yihan sneered in anger.
It’s absurd that someone in Qing City dared to extort him.
The darkness in his black eyes was replaced by a cold smile, his voice was lazy and casual, "At your age, you can’t stay up late all the time. If you die suddenly, never mind five hundred thousand, I couldn’t give you a million even if I wanted to because you’d be dead."
When it comes to venomous words, Mr. Huo claims the second place, and no one dares claim the first.
The woman was instantly outraged upon hearing this, "You look decent, but speak like you’ve drunk poison! I’ll take pictures of your car and you, post them online, and even if you beg me when you’re being drowned in spit, I won’t delete them!"
She intended to put on a show, but seeing he was unfazed, even cooperatively lowering the car window fully after brushing his short hair, she glared hard at him before returning to the driver’s seat to fetch her phone.
After finding her phone, she shouted while walking, "At such a young age, you can’t even speak like a human. You hit my car and put on airs. If you’re broke, don’t try driving luxury cars. You want fame? I’ll help you."
However, just as she started recording, within half a minute, the phone was snatched by a suddenly extended hand.
"Hey, hey, who are you? What are you doing with my phone?"
Mu Jin Huan calmly deleted the video, handed the phone back, with a serene expression, "There might not be surveillance here, but the skid marks from your sudden brake on the downhill road remain, which caused your car to get rear-ended."
The woman’s bravado faltered, holding the phone defensively, her face changing colors, swallowing, "I... I didn’t brake suddenly. Who are you? Stop talking nonsense and bullying people. I’m not afraid of you."
Mu Jin Huan ignored her bluff, took out a signed check from his pocket, stating flatly, "Ten thousand, take it and move your car, or wait for the police to handle it."
The woman was smart and could tell from his attire and demeanor that he was not an ordinary person. After pondering for a moment, she made her decision.
Ten thousand dollars is still money, and if she waited for the police, she might not even get half.
Taking the check from Mu Jin Huan’s hand, she muttered angrily before leaving, "Just my bad luck, no time to fuss with you."
Xu Moyi and her friends took a different path and did not witness this scene.
Mu Jin Huan got into Huo Yihan’s car without asking a word.
Huo Yihan also remained silent. Three minutes later, seeing Mu Jin Huan’s car parked by the side of the road, he joked, "Is your wife stupid, leaving the car door open in such cold weather?"
Mu Jin Huan didn’t think that at all, his expression changed slightly, "Stop the car."
Though joking, Huo Yihan sensed something amiss because... not far away, a group of hooligans was watching something and laughing obnoxiously.
