Chapter 296: In front of a real big shot, they are nothing

"Are you okay?"

Seeing Shi Kai walk to the side to make a call, Shi Jingming came to Shen Xing's side with concern.

Shen Xing shook his head, only then managing to come back to his senses: "Brother Kai seems to know my sister."

"Whether he knows your sister or not, it seems like he's helping you vent your anger, but he hit them too hard. I think that Jin Dao was almost beaten into a daze by him."

Shen Xing was a bit at a loss now. The development of this matter had completely exceeded his expectations.

Shi Jingming suddenly gave him an idea: "If Brother Kai is willing to stand up for you, then in a while, you should ask the other party to compensate for your losses. It's twelve yuan; you can't just swallow this bitter pill yourself!"

"If they can pay, we'll go to the police station and withdraw the case, saying it was settled privately."

Shen Xing nodded, feeling that Shi Jingming's words made sense.

Before long, Brother Kai returned and came to Shen Xing: "Don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter."

"Brother Kai, you don't need to give me any explanation," Shen Xing gathered his courage and said in a low voice: "Just have him pay me back the money for fixing the bike."

"Money for fixing the bike, is it? That's easy to say. How much did it cost?" Shi Kai asked straightforwardly.

Shen Xing: "Twelve yuan!"

"How much?"

Shen Xing: "..."

Shi Jingming: "Twelve yuan. Shen Xing's bicycle is very expensive. Both rims were kicked out of shape by them. It costs six yuan each to replace them with new ones!"

"Damn!"

Shi Kai was instantly furious upon hearing this: "These two little brats really know how to kick, picking a bicycle that costs thousands!"

He naturally wouldn't doubt the truth of Shen Xing's words. It was normal for Sister Ci's younger brother to ride a bike worth thousands.

But for ordinary people, especially unemployed drifters like Jin Dao and the others, twelve yuan could be said to be a huge sum they had never even seen before.

Shi Kai became angrier the more he thought about it, his teeth itching with rage.

The next second, he walked inside, not forgetting to instruct Shen Xing: "Wait here. There must be a result for this matter today."

Soon, miserable screams came from inside again. Clearly, Brother Kai was serious this time. The two's screams were extremely tragic, making everyone outside frown.

Duan Duan arrived at the billiard hall half an hour later.

The billiard hall usually had decent business, especially at night when it was basically full, but today he noticed as soon as he entered that there were few customers, and a small group of people gathered together—clearly Shi Kai's lackeys.

He immediately knew in his heart that this matter today was probably not small.

"Brother Duan, you're here."

A lackey with sharp eyes recognized Duan Duan and took the initiative to greet him.

Duan Duan looked around and didn't find Shi Kai, so he couldn't help but ask: "Where is your Brother Kai?"

As soon as the words fell, another shrill wail came from the back.

The lackey gave a bitter smile and pointed to the back: "He's in the back."

Duan Duan nodded, instructed the lackey to lock the door from the inside first to keep others out, and then walked toward the back.

"Twelve yuan, huh? Sell the three of you and see if you're worth twelve yuan!"

As soon as Duan Duan entered the back door, he heard this sentence from Shi Kai. Looking closely, he saw three lackeys kneeling on the ground, all bruised and swollen. Jin Dao was the worst off, his original appearance unrecognizable, and his left arm dislocated.

"How much anger did you have to be this fired up?" Duan Duan's expression was slightly surprised, but his tone contained amusement.

Shi Kai turned his head upon hearing the voice, and seeing Duan Duan had arrived, he stepped forward helplessly: "Stop teasing me. What should we do?"

"How would I know what you want to do?" Duan Duan looked at Shi Kai and asked: "Are you afraid Sister Ci will find out and punish you?"

"Duh!" Shi Kai's face looked terrible. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but step forward and give each of them another kick.

Duan Duan reached out to stop him: "Alright, stop hitting them. Even if you beat them into this state, Sister Ci won't blame you when she sees it. What needs to be determined now is whether these people only touched the bicycle and didn't touch Sister Ci's younger brother, right?"

"After all, you know how Sister Ci protects her own. Last time we went to Hengdian to stand up for her sister, you were there too. Think about how that kid was beaten—did he even look like a human?"

Shi Kai looked back at the few of them and asked: "Did you hit him?"

The few of them were beaten to the point where they couldn't even speak, and could only shake their heads like rattles. They really hadn't laid a hand on him.

Seeing this, Duan Duan nodded: "Then it's not a big problem. Sister Ci is still a very good person. Since you've disciplined these blind things yourself, she won't make things too difficult for you."

With Duan Duan there, Shi Kai felt a bit more at ease. After all, Duan Duan could talk to Sister Ci.

"Alright then, help me contact Sister Ci and see if she has time to come over. I'll apologize to her in person," Shi Kai said.

Hearing this, Duan Duan smiled: "No problem. Sister Ci will definitely come. After all, this is her younger brother's matter."

When Shen Ci received the message from Duan Duan, she was applying a facial mask in the dormitory.

Duan Duan stated the situation concisely. Shen Ci didn't hesitate, immediately tore off the mask, called Pili, and left the dormitory.

Her younger brother had told her about the bicycle matter when they were eating at home two days ago. Shen Ci hadn't expected the follow-up to this matter to be like this.

Rushing to the location Duan Duan sent her, she saw Duan Duan smoking while waiting for her at the entrance as soon as she got out of the car.

Seeing Shen Ci, Duan Duan hurriedly extinguished the cigarette and walked up quickly: "Sister Ci."

"Where is my younger brother?"

"He's inside. He's perfectly fine."

Shen Ci nodded, then followed Duan Duan into the billiard hall.

"Sis?"

Shen Xing had been waiting there for a long time and couldn't help but feel uneasy, but he didn't expect to wait until his sister came.

"Xingxing." Shen Ci stepped forward and immediately checked her younger brother. Seeing that he really didn't have any traces of being beaten, she finally set her mind at ease.

Xingxing still wanted to ask something, but saw the person just called Brother Duan speaking respectfully to his sister: "Sister Ci, they are in the back. I'll have Shi Kai bring them out."

Shen Xing's eyes widened slightly, and the eyes of everyone around him widened as well.

This beautiful woman in front of them seemed to have a background that wasn't simple!

Brother Kai had to bow his head in front of Brother Duan, but Brother Duan was so respectful to her!

Soon, a chaotic sound came from the back, and then three unrecognizable people were thrown out from inside, crawling and rolling.

Even Pili couldn't help but frown when she saw the extent of their injuries.

"Sister Ci, I'm sorry. I didn't discipline them well, and my lackeys were blind and offended your younger brother." Shi Kai came to Shen Ci, not even having the courage to look her in the eye.

These people looked like they were doing quite well in front of others, but they knew in their hearts that all this superficial glory was relying on Brother Xizi's reputation.

In front of real big shots like Brother Xizi and Sister Ci, they were nothing.
