Chen Jing did not say much and hung up the phone.
With Zhang Hongfu’s carelessness, he definitely would not have thought that Chen Jing’s words just now did not seem to say anything, but in fact, he had said everything that needed to be said.
That sentence, “Zhang Hongfu brought people here again!”
And that sentence, “He smashed up our house!”
The implied meaning was to tell Chen Yiyuan that Zhang Hongfu did not come alone this time. There were quite a few people.
It also hinted that Chen Yiyuan would call the police first and then come over to catch all these hooligans in one go. He would not let any of them go.
If these words were said openly, Zhang Hongfu would definitely not be afraid of anything. However, these hooligans who smashed things might leave early.
Chen Jing did not intend to let them go. That was why he said it in such a secretive manner. His goal was to make sure that they could not leave.
“Is this dish still edible?” Chen Jing put away his phone and asked him.
“It’s just so-so. This run-down place is just so-so. It can’t be compared to a big hotel in the end,” Zhang Hongfu said in disdain as he ate.
“Heh.” Chen Jing looked at how he was wolfing down the food and did not expose him.
He did not plan on ordering this dish. He said to Xu Yanlan, “Mom, can you get me another serving?”
“Okay.” Xu Yanlan nodded and went to the kitchen.
In the blink of an eye, ten minutes passed.
Zhang Hongfu had almost finished eating. He rubbed his stomach and said impatiently, “Why aren’t you rushing? Why isn’t your dad back yet? I have an appointment at 3 p.m. for the surgery.”
“Don’t worry. He’ll be back soon.” Chen Jing was also eating the newly served food leisurely.
Less than a minute after he said this, the sound of a car suddenly came from outside Chen’s Restaurant.
A gangster who was near the door looked outside. When he saw the police badge on the car outside, he immediately looked like a rat who saw a cat. He panicked and became nervous, “Police. It’s the police.”
He wanted to run away, but several police cars came and blocked the door. There was nowhere to run even if he wanted to.
“What’s there to panic about? What’s there to be afraid of? We’re here to ask for money openly, not to rob you. What’s there to be afraid of?” Zhang Hongfu could not help but curse when he saw their frustrated expressions.
It was also because of Zhang Hongfu’s reminder that those hooligans seemed to realize that this was indeed the case.
They could only blame themselves for being used to running in the nightclub. Usually, as long as they saw the police, they would just run regardless of what happened.
Zhang Hongfu also stood up. He looked at Chen Jing and then at Xu Yanlan.
Just now, when they entered the restaurant, he did not see anyone call the police. Why were there so many police suddenly?
The police cars outside did not sound the sirens, so they came without anyone noticing.
In just a short while, more than ten police officers got out of the car and ran into the restaurant.
The leader was also an old acquaintance of Chen’s Restaurant — Officer Liu Qisheng.
“Zhang Hongfu, it’s you again? The last few times you came to cause trouble, I didn’t catch you. This time, I finally caught you, right? What else do you have to say?” Liu Qisheng put his hands behind his back and looked dignified.
Zhang Hongfu smiled embarrassedly and said, “Captain Liu, look at what you said. You make it sound like I’m a heinous villain.”
“Aren’t you?”
“Of course not. I’m… I’m just anxious. My father is waiting for the money to save his life for the surgery. I’m anxious. This… This should be understandable, right? You see, I didn’t do anything. My brothers accidentally knocked down some bottles and tables. At worst, I’ll let them clean it up and make sure it’s clean. Is that okay?” Zhang Hongfu said in a flattering manner.
“Life-saving money? What life-saving money? I heard that you came to ask for money again? Yesterday, the Chen Family gave you 100,000 yuan with me a witness. Why did you come to ask for money again?”
“Captain Liu, you don’t know this. Yesterday’s money was agreed on in the mediation agreement. And today’s money is for the life-saving surgery fee.”
“What surgery?”
“It’s an aneurysm, Captain Liu. The doctor said that the surgery is difficult, so the cost is high. But my dad was hit by Chen Yiyuan after all. Of course, he has to be responsible to the end, don’t you think so?” Zhang Hongfu said methodically.
Outside the door, Chen Yiyuan also appeared. Beside him was a man carrying a briefcase.
He had heard Zhang Hongfu’s words.
“You want 300,000 yuan, right?” Chen Yiyuan said.
“Yes, 300,000 yuan. Not a penny more, not a penny less. After I take the money, I’ll leave immediately.”
“Then I’m sorry. I don’t intend to pay this money.” Chen Yiyuan said.
When Zhang Hongfu heard this, his expression immediately changed.
“What?”
He did not care whether there was police here or not. He slammed the table on the spot. “Chen Yiyuan, you f*cking bumped into my father. How dare you not take responsibility?”
“You caused my father to be hospitalized. His life is on the line. If anything happens to my father because of the delay in the surgery, I will not let your family off.”
“Caused? The person who caused the accident should be your father, right? Speaking of which, you have to return all the money I gave to your family to me. In addition, I also paid for the medical expenses in the hospital. Your family also needs to return it to me,” said Chen Yiyuan.
Zhang Hongfu was so angry that he laughed, “Chen Yiyuan, have you lost your mind? This matter has been decided long ago, and it’s all your fault. What nonsense are you talking about now?”
“I’m just stating the facts.”
“Facts? The facts are that my father was hit by you, and he was lying in the hospital while you were standing here. That’s the truth,” Zhang Hongfu roared until his face turned red.
Chen Yiyuan was neither anxious nor impatient. He said slowly, “On the day of the case, I actually said that I went to buy some goods that day. On the way, it was your father, Zhang Junnian, who drove in the opposite direction and hit me. This responsibility should be all his.
“Moreover, Zhang Junnian must have been instructed by someone, so he deliberately framed me and set up this trap.”
“You’re bullshitting. My dad’s three wheels were knocked out of the road by you. After the incident, you even destroyed the traces of the crime scene. Now that you’re saying all this, who would believe you?”
“You’re still slandering my dad for setting you up? Hmph, Captain Liu, you heard it. His dirty water is splashed everywhere. My dad is lying in the hospital on his deathbed,” Zhang Hongfu said.
Liu Qisheng was expressionless. “Then did your dad, Zhang Junnian, set someone up?”
“Of course not. How could it be possible?” Zhang Hongfu denied it decisively.
Liu Qisheng continued, “I heard that the day before the accident, someone came here to ask the Chen Family to sell their house. The Chen Family didn’t agree. But the next day, something happened. Speaking of which, this is indeed a little coincidental.”
Zhang Hongfu’s heart tightened, but his face still looked indignant. He slammed the table and said, “What does this have to do with my dad? Everything has to be based on evidence. Captain Liu, you can’t slander my dad with this kind of speculation.”

Liu Qisheng nodded. “Yes, everything does have to be based on evidence.”
Zhang Hongfu also echoed, “That’s right. If there’s no evidence, then it’s slander. Chen Yiyuan, if you continue to spout nonsense, I’ll sue you for slander.”
Chen Yiyuan smiled faintly and slowly took out a phone.
“Evidence? You want evidence? Alright, since everyone is here, let’s listen to this evidence.”
He opened the phone and pointed at a recording file in front of everyone..
