Chapter 300: Learn to respect other people

~7 min read 1,399 words

Shi Jingming became more and more excited: "And the other girl who came with his sister yesterday had an icy cold temperament. You could tell at a glance that she knew real kung fu. That kid's dislocated arm was reset by her in one go, right Shen Xing?"

Shen Xing nodded: "That's Sister Pili, my sister's best friend, who has studied martial arts since she was a child."

Jiang Ran listened to their conversation as if she were listening to a fantasy story.

But she knew Shen Xing's family background was good. On the first day he transferred here, she saw Shen Xing being picked up by his family, and the next day she heard classmates say that the car was a "Cullinan," with the top configuration costing around a thousand.

"So you just settled for money privately?" Jiang Ran guessed.

Since the other party was so afraid of Shen Xing's sister, they must have honestly paid the money.

As a result, Shi Jingming spread his hands: "Not a cent was paid. Shen Xing's sister didn't take that twelve yuan seriously at all and directly said she wouldn't pursue it for the sake of the other party's boss."

"N-no compensation?" Jiang Ran was shocked, her voice rising by three points: "Then didn't the other party do evil for nothing? What kind of reconciliation is this?"

Jiang Ran's sense of justice was also very pure, which was to let bad people know that doing bad things requires paying a price and bearing the consequences!

Instead of nothing happening in the end, because that way they would definitely continue to hurt others in the future!

Seeing her so excited, Shen Xing hurriedly explained: "My sister didn't want the money because the other party's boss beat those few people up."

"Tsk tsk tsk." Shi Jingming gave a few "tsk" sounds of emotion, looked at Jiang Ran, and curled his lips: "It's a good thing you weren't at the scene yesterday. You didn't see how miserably those few kids were beaten. Their own mothers probably wouldn't recognize them if they were standing in front of them. Their cheeks were swollen like buns, their eyes were beaten until only a slit remained, and their mouths were full of blood and they couldn't even speak."

Shi Jingming described it so vividly that Jiang Ran had a picture in her mind instantly, and her pretty face instantly twisted into a bun.

"Wouldn't that beat someone to death?"

"Probably? I watched, and if they added two more punches, their little lives would be about at the end." Shi Jingming nodded, then added: "Beating people like that was actually for Shen Xing's sister to see. Brother Kai knew those few kids couldn't afford to pay, and didn't dare to offend Shen Xing's sister, so he definitely had to let them use physical pain to vent the anger in Shen Xing's sister's heart."

His analysis was completely correct. Shi Kai struck such a heavy blow just to give Shen Ci an explanation.

After hearing the full explanation, Jiang Ran also sighed silently: "Fine, since that's the case, then I support your decision to withdraw the case."

Shen Xing said: "Although this matter is over, I still want to thank you both. After school, I'll treat you to that spicy skewer place on 'East Street'? I've heard several classmates mention that it's particularly delicious, and everyone loves going there."

"'Ma Sao', right?" Shi Jingming's eyes instantly lit up.

"Yeah, it's 'Ma Sao'!"

"Alright, that place is particularly delicious and cheap."

As a result, the two were in high spirits, but Jiang Ran said: "You two go. I have something to do tonight and don't have time."

Hearing this, Shen Xing's expression stalled, and he asked with confusion: "What could you possibly have to do so late?"

They had to stay until 9:00 PM when evening self-study ended.

And Shi Jingming clearly knew Jiang Ran better, only to see his expression retract and ask softly: "Are you going to work the night shift to earn money again?"

Jiang Ran didn't avoid this and nodded: "Yeah, it wasn't easy to turn eighteen and find a formal part-time job. I should earn as much as I can."

"You've been recommended for admission, so you definitely have a scholarship, right? Why push yourself so hard?"

"I always have to save some living expenses, and I also plan to continue working part-time during university," Jiang Ran said.

Only then did Shen Xing understand what was going on.

"Class monitor, you, you're going to work after school?" Shen Xing asked with shock.

Jiang Ran nodded.

Shen Xing asked again: "Where are you working?"

"The 'food stall' near my house."

Shen Xing was very surprised by this matter, because he really hadn't thought that the class monitor would have to rely on herself to save living expenses for university.

She looked completely like a little girl, although she was eighteen, she hadn't even graduated from high school yet.

But Shen Xing couldn't say much about this. Everyone's life and family were different, and he wasn't qualified to comment on other people's private affairs, because he was a lucky beneficiary, and before this, he had also witnessed the hardship of his mother raising three children alone.

Everyone in the world has their own suffering.

And he has to learn to respect other people's suffering.

"Then let's go together another day, okay? I already said I wanted to thank you both. If the class monitor doesn't go, then it's no fun. Let's pick a day when you're free and go again?" Shen Xing changed the subject, no longer continuing to ask about Jiang Ran working, but pulling the topic back.

Shi Jingming naturally had no opinion: "Anyway, you're treating, so any time is fine."

Seeing this, Jiang Ran also smiled. She wasn't the kind of person who was coy, so she nodded immediately: "Alright then, let's do next Monday. The shop is closed for rest on Monday."

"Okay, then it's a deal!"

In the evening, Gu Lianxing was eating fresh and expensive fruit while using her "Dou Dou" alt account on her spare phone to secretly watch Pili's stream and give her gifts.

Shen Ci was leaning on the bed, video-calling Tang Song.

Tang Song on the other end of the video was still in the police station office, and it was already almost 8:00 PM before he had time to eat a bite of a cold boxed lunch.

"It's been too busy lately. Auntie came to Longcheng this time and I didn't have time to take a moment to go see her."

Shen Ci saw that he was indeed quite haggard, having stayed up for several big nights sorting out files a few days ago.

"It's okay, work is important. My mom won't leave after coming to Longcheng this time, so there's plenty of time."

Tang Song smiled and nodded, suddenly leaning closer to the screen and asking in a low voice: "Did you miss me?"

Shen Ci pursed her lips with a smile in her eyes: "Is missing you useful?"

"How is it not useful?"

"Then take off your clothes now and let me see."

Hearing this, Tang Song showed a wicked smile: "Want to see? I can go to the restroom and take them off for you to see!"

"Oh my, oh my, I'm joking. Are you crazy?" Shen Ci's face turned slightly red, but she couldn't hide her liking in her heart: "You go busy first, I'm also going to wash up."

"Okay, send me a message if you have anything. I'll reply as soon as I see it. If it's urgent, just call me directly; I won't keep it on silent."

Shen Ci made an "OK" gesture before taking the initiative to hang up the video.

As a result, just as it ended, Gu Lianxing below suddenly screamed: "Mom!"

Shen Ci pulled open the bed curtain and poked her head out: "What's wrong?"

Gu Lianxing hurriedly ran to Shen Ci's bed with her phone and handed it to Shen Ci, her face shocked: "My dear, look!"

Shen Ci took the phone and looked closely. Gift effects were appearing continuously in Pili's stream. A user named "Fifty Shades of Grey" was frantically giving her gifts. Just in this short while, there were probably more than a dozen carnivals!
