Chapter 2721

Xia Song and Zhai Yingjie saw that Su Xinghui's expression was not very good, and both looked at him with solemn faces.

After listening for a dozen seconds, Su Xinghui asked, "Then did you call the police? You called the police, right? Fine, I'll come over right now. Stay in the car and don't come out."

Su Xinghui hung up the phone, stood up abruptly, and a murderous look appeared on his face.

Xia Song asked, "Mayor Su, what happened?"

Zhai Yingjie also asked, "What happened?"

Su Xinghui said, "My family came to Baozhou to see me, and they encountered 'porcelain-bumping' scammers at the intersection south of Baozhou city."

"'Porcelain-bumping'?" Zhai Yingjie's expression turned serious: "Mayor Su, then I'll go with you, and I'll call another brother."

Su Xinghui nodded. At a time like this, having Zhai Yingjie, a local, with them would be better.

Xia Song was a bit puzzled. Didn't Lu Xiaoya say she wasn't coming today? Why did she come after all? But he knew this wasn't the time to ask. He said to Su Xinghui, "Mayor Su, then I'll call Director Bian and have him arrange a car to take us there."

Su Xinghui nodded. Xia Song immediately called Bian Shuangxi, and on the other side, Zhai Yingjie also made a call, telling the person who answered to take people directly to the intersection south of the city.

Hearing that Mayor Su's family had encountered scammers, Bian Shuangxi dared not delay. He quickly arrived in person, riding in Zhang Heping's car. Su Xinghui got into the car without a word; anyone could see the anger in his heart.

Seeing Zhai Yingjie, Zhang Heping felt a bit awkward, but he didn't dare say anything, only asking, "Mayor Su, it's at the south city intersection, right?"

Su Xinghui nodded and said, "Yes, please drive a bit faster."

Zhang Heping said "Alright," and started the car. He was driving an Audi, which had decent performance, and his driving skills were also okay. Since the south city intersection was only a few kilometers away, he arrived there in just a few minutes.

From afar, Su Xinghui saw his own Audi A6 parked at the intersection, surrounded by a large crowd. He was immediately anxious, not knowing the situation, but when he saw a few police officers present, he felt a bit more at ease. Regardless, with police present, those people wouldn't dare to act too recklessly.

Before Zhang Heping's car had even come to a complete stop, Su Xinghui opened the door, jumped out, and ran over, squeezing through the crowd. Once inside, he saw Lu Xiaoya standing outside the car, while his parents and Niuniu were still sitting inside, all three safe and sound. Only then did he set his mind at ease.

But just at this moment, he heard a police officer say, "This lady, since you hit someone, paying some money is only right. How about this, I'll make the call: you pay him five thousand yuan and call it even. Consider this me smoothing things over for you."

Upon hearing this, Su Xinghui's suspicions grew. Why would this officer make Lu Xiaoya pay five thousand yuan? He looked in front of the car and saw a man in his thirties or forties lying there, groaning, "It hurts, it hurts," but his acting was so exaggerated that he didn't look like someone who was truly injured at all.

Su Xinghui didn't call out to Lu Xiaoya; he gave her a gesture. Seeing her husband had arrived, Lu Xiaoya felt reassured. After seeing Su Xinghui's gesture, she understood his meaning and said to the officer, "I didn't hit him at all. It's impossible for me to pay money."

Several ruffians standing in the crowd started clamoring: "You stinking woman, you hit someone and won't pay? Where is there such a good deal? Pay up quickly, or we'll smash your car!"

Those people's words made Su Xinghui's heart flare with anger, but he held it back, watching the show unfolding before him.

That officer also stiffened his face and said, "You, this lady, speaking like that isn't right. I'm mediating for you. You clearly hit someone; if you hadn't, why would he be lying under your car wheels? I've already lowered the price they asked for by this much, and you're still ungrateful. If you're going to be like this, I won't care anymore; go argue with them yourself."
