Lin Chen offered a faint smile, "Brother, you've misunderstood. What I mean is, it's wrong for this old grandpa to have hit your car, but it's also wrong for you to hit him. Look at how old the grandpa is. With the slap you gave, you're not only going to miss out on compensation, but you might even end up having to pay him."

The redhead froze for a moment after hearing Lin Chen's words, pondering the taste. What this kid said made sense, and he acknowledged the fact that the old man had hit his car.

The complexion on the redhead's face finally eased.

At this moment, the girl who had followed behind came over. She had thought Lin Chen was about to stand up for justice, but after hearing his words, she couldn't help but be taken aback.

From the looks of it, he was clearly speaking up for this redhead!

Lin Chen walked up to the trembling old grandpa and continued, "Old grandpa, how could you ride your bike so carelessly? Look what you've hit. Don't touch me! People aren't even allowed to touch it, yet you went and hit it. Although just a bit of paint has been scratched off, one look at the model of this car and you can tell it's an import. The paint job alone can't be fixed for less than a hundred thousand!"

"What! A hundred thousand!" The old man nearly collapsed in fright.

At this moment, the redhead was overjoyed inside. He thought he was ruthless enough, but he didn't expect this kid to be even more ruthless than himself. An imported car, oh dear, why hadn't he thought of that?

He had even made up his mind, after this incident, to definitely pull this kid into his gang.

The girl following behind Lin Chen's face turned ugly.

When Lin Chen had stopped the car to act as a hero, she felt somewhat ashamed, thinking he was a good person. But this guy, rather than helping the old grandpa, was clearly an accomplice in the whole ordeal.

Unable to tolerate it any longer, the girl finally stood out, "Hey, don't bully the old grandpa. This BMW is clearly a used car. If a bit of paint got scraped off, it would cost at most a few hundred bucks. A hundred thousand, what kind of international joke is that."

Seeing the girl boldly step forward, Lin Chen was taken aback. It's really hard to find girls with such a sense of justice nowadays. Most importantly, the way her chest violently shook when she spoke angrily was simply too much for the eyes.

"Hey, little miss, you can't talk nonsense. What this gentleman said is right, my car is indeed an import. I remember now, ten thousand is simply not enough. Well, considering the old man's age, I won't accept a penny less than eighty thousand," the redhead sneered.

"Eighty thousand? Big brother, I can't even afford eight thousand, let alone eighty thousand. You're asking for this old man's life!" The old grandpa then squatted on the ground and began sobbing.

Mad beyond tolerance, the girl pointed at Lin Chen, "You jerk, I was blind to see any good in you, joining hands with these scammers. It's obvious what you're doing here—attempting to extort by deception. Hmph, I'll call the police and let them sort out justice."

Just as the girl was taking out her phone, the redhead maliciously pulled out a dagger, "Stinky girl, you dare to meddle in other people's business? Believe it or not, I'll slash your face."

They were joined by a few others, who surrounded the girl.

Just as the group was about to lay hands on the girl, a voice suddenly rang out.

"Hello, is this 110? Yes, I'd like to report a case. There's an old grandpa here who hit someone's car and isn't paying up. He's also pretending to be pitiful, and there's a beauty causing a commotion, even threatening to smash people with her phone. The location? In front of Mingzhu Plaza on the Beijing-Shanghai Expressway."

At this moment, the redhead, looking at Lin Chen as he hung up the phone, had a sudden change in expression, "Bloody hell, who asked you to call the police? Have you gone mad?"

Lin Chen just smiled, "When in trouble, seek the police! Since the old grandpa can't afford to pay, we'll just have to ask the police to come arrest him!"

The redhead's face turned a shade of green with rage, "You idiot, causing trouble rather than solving anything."

Fuming with anger, the redhead approached the old grandpa and growled, "Old man, do you have five hundred or not? Give me five hundred, and we'll call it even."

Upon hearing what the redhead said, the old grandpa first froze, then a look of wild joy appeared on his face, "Yes, yes!"

As he spoke, the old man's hand reached into his pocket.

"Hold on, how could this be? He clearly owes a hundred thousand, and eighty thousand is already letting him off cheap. How could five hundred be enough?" Lin Chen hurriedly interjected.

Finally, unable to bear it any longer, the old grandpa burst out at Lin Chen, "Young man, I have no quarrel with you, so why are you relentlessly pushing me to my death?"

Lin Chen replied helplessly, "Old grandpa, are you really unable to pay the eighty thousand?"

"I can't afford it even if it costs me my life," the old grandpa said, seething with anger.

Lin Chen said lightly, "If you'd said so earlier, if you can't afford it, I'll help you pay."

With that single statement, Lin Chen left everyone dumbfounded.

Lin Chen came smiling to the redhead's side and asked, "This car is an imported one costing a hundred thousand, right? Okay, I'll compensate on behalf of the old man."

"What!" The redhead looked at Lin Chen and was immediately stunned. Was this kid an idiot with too much money?

At this moment, the girl was also completely baffled. Could it be that this guy wasn't a bad person, just an idiot with too much money?

"You're really going to pay me a hundred thousand?" The redhead was utterly incredulous.

Lin Chen nodded and said, "Of course, if I hadn't swerved suddenly just now, the old man wouldn't have hit your car."

A cold smile appeared on the redhead's face. This guy really was a fool with too much money—only a true idiot would turn down free money!

"Are you transferring it or paying cash?" the redhead asked excitedly.

Lin Chen smiled, "Either is fine, but before that, I need to check the car.

"

"Check the car?" The redhead was taken aback.

As he spoke, Lin Chen went over to the old man's junk cart.

"Old man, let me borrow your shovel for a moment." With that, Lin Chen picked up a shovel and walked over to the car.

"What, what are you doing?" Seeing Lin Chen with a shovel in front of the car, the redhead's complexion changed.

What am I doing? Of course, I'm checking the car!

As he spoke, Lin Chen swung the shovel hard against the car body.

"Bang bang bang!"

The sound of Lin Chen's shovel striking the car rang out continuously.

Paint chips kept falling off, and beneath the black paint, white paint was revealed.

"Damn!" The redhead had not anticipated Lin Chen would pull such a move, his face suddenly turned pale.

In the end, Lin Chen brought the shovel down on the car emblem, revealing a BYD logo.

Only then did Lin Chen stop his car-smashing action, looking pleased as he said, "Seems like your car isn't a BMW, huh!"

At this moment, the redhead's face was grim as he coldly stared at Lin Chen, "You've been messing with me from the start.

"

Lin Chen smiled faintly, "That's right, I've been playing you, so what!"

"You're courting death!" Murderous intent filled the redhead's eyes.

"So you want to fight?" Lin Chen's mouth curled up slightly as he stepped forward, unleashing a fierce punch towards the car.

"Boom!"

The hood of the BYD suddenly flew off from the force of the impact.

"Gulp!"

The two men who were about to charge forward swallowed hard.

The thought that a punch powerful enough to send a car flying could have devastating effects on a person sent shivers down their spines, a chill rushing straight to their heads.

With a flickering gaze, the redhead pointed at Lin Chen, "You're vicious, let's go."

Lin Chen's gaze turned cold with a hint of mockery, "Leaving? Did I say you could leave?"
