Chapter 16: The Bad Person Has Grown Old

After nearly two hours of fussing, Wen Keke finally drove the car into a commercial street.

Lin Feng had already been waiting here.

Seeing Wen Keke and Zhu Li arrive, Lin Feng's eyes lit up involuntarily.

Because Wen Keke was dressed very beautifully.

However, her expression was a bit shy, probably because it was her first time going out dressed like this.

This was a commercial street with heavy foot traffic, and everyone passing by, regardless of gender, had their attention drawn to Wen Keke and Zhu Li.

Under the gaze of many, Wen Keke inevitably felt a little nervous.

"Misses, do you usually dress like this for work?"

The two women walked up to him, Lin Feng raised his hand to glance at his watch, and said with a smile.

Wen Keke lowered her head embarrassedly.

Zhu Li laughed and said, "Sorry! Something came up on the way."

"What happened?" Lin Feng asked curiously.

Zhu Li recounted the incident of encountering an old man who had collapsed.

After the ambulance arrived then, Zhu Li stayed at the scene to watch the car.

Wen Keke, meanwhile, went with the ambulance to the hospital.

Since the old man's family hadn't arrived, Wen Keke also fronted ten thousand yuan, leaving her name and phone number.

"My Keke has such a kind heart!"

After Zhu Li finished speaking, Lin Feng gave Wen Keke a thumbs-up and praised her.

"Who belongs to your household?"

Wen Keke pouted and said.

Lin Feng chuckled and said, "You're renting my house and living in my house—doesn't that make you part of my household?"

"Then am I part of your household too? Do I get a share?"

Zhu Li's skin isn't as thin as Wen Keke's; she seized the opportunity and climbed aboard.

"Okay! No problem!"

Lin Feng readily agreed.

Then he brought Wen Keke and Zhu Li to the entrance of a women's lingerie specialty store.

"I'll wait for you outside," Lin Feng said calmly.

"I thought you were going in too!" Zhu Li laughed.

Lin Feng spread his hands, "I don't mind, I'm just afraid you'll feel embarrassed."..

Wen Keke, feeling embarrassed, hurriedly pulled Zhu Li inside.

Having Lin Feng pay for her underwear was Zhu Li's suggestion.

When they were on the phone, Zhu Li brought this up, and she was mortified.

Half an hour later, the two women had finished their selections.

Lin Feng paid by card, over three thousand yuan.

After the receipt was printed, Lin Feng took a look at it.

Then he couldn't help but glance at Wen Keke.

I really couldn't tell—she's actually a D!

As for the extra E, that must be something Zhu Li snatched.

Wen Keke's cheeks instantly flushed red.

"Handsome guy, thanks! How about I pay today instead!"

Zhu Li raised the paper bag in her hand and laughed.

"I'm treating you—there's no reason for you to pay, please go ahead!"

Lin Feng made a gesture of invitation.

The place to eat was a high-end Chinese restaurant, and Lin Feng had already reserved a table in advance.

They hadn't walked a few steps when Wen Keke's phone suddenly rang.

After answering, they realized it was the hospital calling.

"Okay, okay! I'll be right there."

After hanging up, Wen Keke said apologetically, "Lin Feng, Zhu Li, why don't you go eat? The hospital just called, saying the old man's family has arrived and wants to see me."

Lin Feng furrowed his brow.

The old man's family didn't even thank Wen Keke on the phone.

They had the hospital call and summon Wen Keke over.

This is not normal!

Could it be that Wen Keke did a good deed and now is being extorted?

After that incident a few years ago, the social climate has completely changed.

Not only are people unwilling to get involved, they fear being extorted.

Some people have even smelled a business opportunity in it.

Consequently, the profession of "bumping" has also flourished.

"Let's go together!" Lin Feng said calmly.

Zhu Li couldn't help but pout, giving Lin Feng a resentful glance.

She had still thought she'd have a chance to be alone with Lin Feng!

I didn't expect Lin Feng to still value Keke more!

At this moment, Zhu Li even doubted whether she had already grown old and lost her beauty.

As for Wen Keke, a hint of jealousy arose in her heart again.

But she quickly adjusted her mindset.

In the hospital ward.

Zhou Taokou, over sixty years old, had already been rescued.

The cause was a stroke, not too serious.

Besides that, the fall broke her left arm.

Zhou Taokou had regained consciousness.

Her son and daughter-in-law were sitting around the bedside.

No one else was in the ward; the door had been shut, and the doctor and nurse were not present.

"Mom, remember, no matter what that woman says, you must say you were knocked to the ground by her car."

Yang Honglin looked at his frail old mother and whispered his instructions.

"Yeah, Mom! People who own cars are usually rich; if you hold on tight, she'll definitely have to fork over a large sum."

Daughter-in-law Wang Meili said with a smile.

Zhou Taokou nodded, "I know; I've seen on TV that this can net a large sum."

"Yes, Mom! With the money, we'll buy you tasty food, get a big house, and send your grandson to a good school."

"Mom, whether we strike it rich is up to you."

The three of them discussed quietly.

Seeing a nurse enter, Yang Honglin and Wang Meili then stood up.

After leaving the ward, the two waited outside in the hallway.

They waited for about half an hour.

Lin Feng, Wen Keke, and Zhu Li appeared before Yang Honglin and Wang Meili under the guidance of a doctor.

When he saw Wen Keke and Zhu Li, Yang Honglin's eyes widened.

Such beautiful women, he had never seen in reality before.

That face, that figure—simply enough to bewitch anyone.

Seeing her husband dazed, Wang Meili immediately reached out and twisted his arm.

The sharp pain finally brought Yang Honglin back to his senses.

At the ward door, the doctor gave a brief introduction.

Upon hearing that Wen Keke was the main party, Yang Honglin raised his hand and grabbed her arm.

Lin Feng waved his hand, knocking Yang Honglin's hand away, and said coldly, "Speak properly, don't get physical."

Yang Honglin shook the hand that Lin Feng had struck, glared at Lin Feng, then fixed his gaze on Wen Keke and said, "You hit my mother with your car; you must pay the medical expenses, lost wages, nutrition fees, mental damages, etc. Otherwise, I'll sue you in court!"

Wen Keke's eyes reddened upon hearing that, filling with tears.

On the way here, Lin Feng joked that she would be extorted, but she didn't believe him.

I didn't expect that upon meeting, the patient's family not only didn't thank her, but actually claimed she had hit the elderly person with her car.

What an injustice!

Lin Feng patted Wen Keke's shoulder to comfort her.

Then he looked at Yang Honglin and asked, "How much money do you want?"

"Besides medical and hospitalization fees, we also want two, twenty..."

Yang Honglin was about to name a figure when Wang Meili beside him quickly pulled him.

Next, Wang Meili sized up Wen Keke, Zhu Li, and Lin Feng.

She often goes to tea houses to play cards, so her experience is broader than Yang Honglin's, who works on construction sites.

The clothes on Wen Keke and Zhu Li alone cost at least two or three thousand.

And Lin Feng's clothes, wristwatch, etc., if genuine brands, would be at least tens of thousands!

For such wealthy people, not gouging them heavily would be a disservice to Wang Meili's discernment.

Wang Meili smiled and said, "My mother was fine, but now your car has knocked her into illness; she may spend the rest of her life bedridden. Let's settle this privately: you pay one million, and we'll drop the matter."

One million!

Yang Honglin couldn't help but stare at his wife in surprise.

Zhu Li furrowed her brows and said, "It's clearly your elderly mother who tripped on the road herself; if we hadn't called 120, you wouldn't even know if she were alive or dead. Not thanking us is bad enough, but you're turning the tables—has your conscience been eaten by dogs?"

"Who are you saying lacks conscience? You're scolding me, and you actually dare to scold me!"

Wang Meili suddenly exploded, raising her hand to grab Zhu Li.

Zhu Li was frightened and retreated several steps.

The doctor beside them hurriedly stopped Wang Meili, frowning and said, "Everyone, this is a hospital; please don't make a noise. I think you should call the police and let them handle this."

Upon mentioning the police, Yang Honglin and Wang Meili both froze.

The doctor added, "The patient is the party involved; let's hear what she has to say."

Zhou Taokou had already awakened and had consulted with her son and daughter-in-law.

As the saying goes, "If the beam is not straight, the rafters will be crooked."

Her son and daughter-in-law lack conscience, and the old fellow is no good either.

Zhou Taokou also insisted that, as she crossed the road, when Wen Keke drove by, the car's side mirror scraped her to the ground.

"If it wasn't you who hit me, why would you have sent me to the hospital?"

After repeatedly answering the doctor's questions, Zhou Taokou finally said a very classic sentence in an impatient manner.
