Chapter 339: The Soft-Waisted Educated Youth Is Spoiled Rotten by Her Boyfriend 02

0731 suddenly fell silent, somewhat guiltily letting out a hehe laugh.

【You also know, since the permission was borrowed from the neighboring God-rich System, you must complete the corresponding God-rich Mission.】

Indeed so.

Jin Chen wore an unsurprised expression.

However, at this point, the God-rich Mission isn't a loss compared to the 500,000.

【Let's exchange.】

【Okay! Exchanged 500,000 funds, deducted 50 points.】

【Time-limited mission: Please spend 100 yuan in cash within four hours.】

Jin Chen: 「……」

【In this remote rural village, where can I spend 100?】

【Please cheer on! I believe in you~】 0731's tone was especially swaying.

Jin Chen returned a cold smile.

According to the original plot's development, Xu Pozi will likely find someone later to have the original owner pay compensation; although it's a good way to spend this money, Jin Chen didn't have the idea of giving money to others for no reason.

It would be better to settle this early and give the money to his own wife.

0731 seemed to guess his thought: 【Host, the God-rich Mission still has restrictions: mission restriction: not allowed to give away, only can be from the exchange.】

【……You go into the small black house, or else.】

0731 silently closed its mouth.

As expected, less than half an hour after Xu Pozi returned, she marched in mightily, bringing several strong villagers with hoes to the door.

Gui Fang was outside the door, arguing with her to the point of being unable to separate.

Jin Chen glanced inside, picked up the small knife the original owner used to scare people, reversed his grip, and went out.

Seeing him come out, the crowd that was already arguing instantly became even noisier.

"You little beast, dare to come out! Let your mother block in front, you worthless thing! Hurry up and pay compensation!"

Xu Pozi, having backup, was no longer afraid of Jin Chen; she pushed Xu Lin out, rolled up his sleeve, and said, "Everyone, look well—my grandson has been injured by this little beast!"

Xu Lin, meanwhile, cooperatively lowered his head and silently shed tears, as if he had truly suffered a great grievance.

Jin Chen approached, playing with the knife in his hand, his brows and eyes full of hostility, and said, "Injured? Let me see."

Having said that, he grabbed Xu Lin's arm and looked down at the so-called 'injury'.

His sudden action startled everyone.

The villagers thought he was about to strike and quickly shouted to stop him; Xu Lin, however, was genuinely frightened, for he knew how strong Jin Chen's combat ability was.

"You're pinching me and it hurts! Let go quickly!"

"Pfft… you call this an injury?"

Jin Chen flung off his arm, rolled up his own sleeve, and said, "Coincidentally, I have one too—could it be you who hit me?"

"This……"

The villagers examined closely, and the two wounds indeed looked almost identical.

"Isn't this just skin scraped from picking fruit in a tree? I have it too!" A passerby who came to watch also rolled up his sleeve.

"Hey, you're right, it really looks like an abrasion."

"What's going on, Linzi—did Jin Chen actually hit you or not?"

Xu Lin, flustered by their chatter, turned red and stepped back two steps, saying, "Maybe… maybe I misremembered."

"If you can misremember whether I hit you, maybe you also misremembered the radio incident?"

Jin Chen's face was expressionless.

"No! The radio was broken by you! It was you! I and my grandmother saw it!"

Upon mentioning this, Xu Pozi and Xu Lin's previously weakened momentum surged back.

"Fine, tell me where I dropped it, when, why I would break your radio, and what the purpose was—you better explain everything point by point."

Jin Chen's demeanor was cold and orderly.

If it were the original owner's usual self, he would already be furious and would have directly struck someone.

"This…" Xu Lin panicked a bit, couldn't come up with an answer right away, and could only make things up.

"You passed by my house, saw me listening to the radio on the open ground, and rushed over to smash it!"

Jin Chen: "Am I crazy? To rush into your house for no reason, and besides, your family has a dog—wouldn't it bark if I entered?"

The woman living to the left of Xu Pozi's house, also present watching the fun, after hearing this thought carefully and said, "You'd better not say that—I really didn't hear your dog bark this morning."

Seeing this, Xu Pozi felt a little panicked inside; she wanted to extort some money from Gui Fang's family—how come things are getting stranger and stranger!

She pulled out her signature move, let out an 'aiyo' and flung herself to the ground, wailing loudly, her gray hair disheveled: 'Oh dear, what sin! Who is like this! That's twenty dollars! If I don't get compensation, I won't get it! How can this old woman go on living…'

Jin Chen felt his forehead throbbing from listening, grew impatient, kicked the nearby tree, and said, 'Shut up, what are you crying for? If you want to die, go die elsewhere, not in my house!'

The tree trunk trembled from the kick, leaves rustled down, and Xu Pozi under the tree, caught off guard, met Jin Chen's gaze that seemed ready to kill; the words she hadn't finished crying choked in her throat.

The scene finally quieted down, and the surrounding villagers were startled by Jin Chen's sudden outburst.

"Say it again: I didn't break your radio; as for who did, I wish that person an early death."

Here, this hot temper is exactly like the original owner's, so others didn't find it strange; they just thought that since Jin Chen dared say that, it's likely he really didn't steal it.

Xu Lin couldn't bear to hear such words; he immediately clenched his fists, and his morale collapsed.

By this point, seeing the two's reactions, the other villagers, whatever they still didn't understand, all tried to smooth things over.

"Maybe it's just a misunderstanding; we're all neighbors, don't harm harmony."

"Yeah, yeah, let's just drop this matter."

"Yo," Jin Chen let out a surprised "yo," his tone sarcastic, "You're quite good at playing favorites—just now you brought hoes against my mother and didn't talk about being neighbors; behind my back you say my uncle's lame and can't get a wife, useless, yet you're not afraid of harming harmony?"

He finally drew the short knife from his hand, blade pointing at those few people, "Get lost, all of you get farther away—if you dare come again to bully my mother, I'll hit each one I see."

You really are...

The uncle he had the knife pointed at stepped back a few paces, put down the hoe in his hand, turned and left first, still muttering curses under his breath.

The others also scattered away, whispering that he really was a lunatic.

Finally only Xu Pozi and Xu Lin remained.

"Still not getting lost, waiting for me to send you off?" Jin Chen again made a move as if to strike.

Xu Pozi jumped in fright, her legs uncooperative; as she rose she almost fell, and she limped away following Xu Lin.

"By the way, just a reminder: if this matter gets known to others, the one who'll lose face won't be me."

Jin Chen seemed to have a hidden meaning, his sharp gaze fixed directly on Xu Lin.
