Chapter 114

"You──" Xiao Yan couldn't help but change her expression, and Xiao Sha also frowned.

Directly raising her hand to wipe her mouth, He Lele confirmed, "××, four bottles, room temperature, right."

"K-know it and still not going?" Xiao Yan didn't know why she felt He Lele's appearance was a bit…… a bit creepy.

He Lele took off the cloth bag on her shoulder and took out the water bottle by bottle, "××, four bottles, room temperature, sixteen yuan, thank you!"

The two Xiao sisters sat there stunned.

Author's Note:

Did I forget to say it in the last chapter? I love you all~~ This sentence cannot be left out~~~

☆, (8 Fresh Coins) Chapter 109: Huge Amount

Jiang Jingjing was stunned for a moment and hurriedly found sixteen yuan to hand to He Lele. She had a feeling—this girl was better left unprovoked!

He Lele took the money, picked up the bottle and a half of iced drink on the table, and walked back. It wasn't until she sat down that her whole body started to feel tense—just now, being stared at by the four of them, her phobia of being watched didn't flare up immediately! Why was that? There was no time to think about it. As soon as she saw Ruan Lin finish a scene and the director was explaining the acting, He Lele hurriedly ran over with a wet towel and water.

Ruan Lin's even skin tone and deep-set features almost didn't need makeup, so it didn't matter if he wiped his face directly with a wet towel after sweating. Looking down at He Lele, whose small face was covered in sweat beads but who was very seriously helping him wipe it, Ruan Lin curled his lips into an intoxicating smile. He used almost all his self-control not to kiss her lips directly, but thinking of her words at noon, he couldn't help but feel stifled. This woman was truly…… both lovable and hateful!

Water is something that can quench thirst, but if you drink too much…… you'll be running to the restroom constantly.

Seeing that Ruan Lin wouldn't be free for a while, He Lele glanced not far away and also got up to go to the restroom.

As soon as Xiao Yan came out of the restroom stall, she saw He Lele looking at her with one hand supporting her chin, "Y-you're sick! Standing there pretending to be a ghost for no reason!"

The others in the restroom didn't really know He Lele, but they all knew Xiao Yan and knew this young lady's foul temper, so they hurriedly washed their hands and left.

Xiao Yan washed her hands and was about to leave, but He Lele called out to stop her, "Please wait, Miss Xiao Yan."

"What?" Xiao Yan raised an eyebrow. She didn't believe this country girl who had just arrived in the big city dared to do anything to her, even though this woman was sometimes strange.

He Lele raised a small disc at her fingertips, "Do you know…… that there are cameras everywhere now?"

"Y-you, what do you mean?"

"Didn't you notice there is one right next to our resting area? It recorded everything very clearly, you hitting me, and the way you threw my phone."

"……Heh! So what? Call the police then! Call them! As expected of someone from the countryside, it's just a slap, the police won't even care if it's not a minor injury, at most they'll make me apologize to you! Hmph! Call them!"

He Lele smiled and nodded, "Yes, a slap might not be serious, but what if you add intentional destruction of someone else's property? Article 49 of the 'Public Security Administration Punishments Law of the People's Republic of China': 'Whoever steals, swindles, forcibly snatches, or intentionally damages public or private property shall be detained for not less than five days but not more than ten days, and may be concurrently fined not more than 500 yuan; if the circumstances are relatively serious, they shall be detained for not less than ten days but not more than fifteen days, and may be concurrently fined not more than 1,000 yuan.'"

"……Pfft!" Although she seemed disdainful in her mouth, Xiao Yan was indeed starting to feel guilty. Five hundred or a thousand didn't matter, but detention……

"And also—Article 275 of the 'Criminal Law': 'Whoever intentionally destroys public or private property, if the amount is relatively large or there are other serious circumstances, shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention, or a fine; if the amount is huge or there are other particularly serious circumstances, they shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than seven years.'"

"You! You think I'm scared! Still, amount relatively large, huge! How much is your broken knock-off phone worth! Aren't you just trying to extort me! Speak! How much money do you want? Three hundred? Five hundred?"

"Then I'll popularize some more 'common sense'. For the crime of intentional destruction of property, the starting point for a relatively large amount or criminal responsibility is 2,000 yuan, and a huge amount is 20,000 yuan. As for the knock-off phone you mentioned—" He Lele took out the phone and showed it front and back to Xiao Yan. Although it had many scratches and some paint peeling from being thrown, the bright red, textured screen was still eye-catching, and the Medusa on the back of the phone seemed to glance arrogantly at the stunned Xiao Yan, "Verace Unique limited edition set, retail price 59,000 RMB exactly."

"Y-you…… you're lying to ghosts! Just you, you just came from the countryside—"

"Yes, I am lying to you, only one point is a lie," He Lele retracted her smile, "Only the point that 'I just came from the countryside' is a lie. If you have any doubts about other things, it doesn't matter, I'll go call the police now, and you'll soon know if what I said is true or not."

Seeing that He Lele seemed to really be going to call the police, Xiao Yan panicked, 59,000, huge amount, more than three years! No, she didn't want to go to jail!

"N-no, don't call the police! I, I'll pay! I'll pay you, is that not enough?"

He Lele stopped in her tracks, "Oh? Can you afford to pay?"

"I……" A 59,000 phone, she had only just saved enough money for an iPhone 5, "I, I can pay in installments."

"No need." He Lele walked up to Xiao Yan with a cold face, "You don't have to pay, and I don't have to call the police, as long as you do one thing."

"W-what?"

"……Stay far away from me. And……" He Lele clenched her fists, hesitated for a moment, but gave up the idea of slapping Xiao Yan back. She had only hit people three times in her life, twice in this month, this time…… forget it.

"A-and what else……"

"……Go help me buy a bottle of water."
