âYouâre right, so Iâve decided to hit him,â Xu Baohan said as he raised his fist and punched Chen Ke in the face.
A manâs fist was far stronger than a womanâs palm.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Chen Ke fell to the ground, his nose bleeding.
However, before he knew what happened, Xu Baohan grabbed him by the collar and threw him a few more punches.
An Lan was stunned. Xu Baohan was tall, but she didnât expect him to be such a good fighter. Chen Ke just couldnât block his punches.
However, what surprised her even more was that Xu Baohan would hit people for her. After all, they werenât that close. He could just send Chen Ke away. There was no need to hit him. He was a judge and people would think that he was bullying others.
The beating shocked the passersby. The KTV security guard and manager immediately rushed over to stop him. The manager tried to smooth things over, but Chen Ke was angry and insisted that he was not in the wrong and wanted to call the police. He even said that Xu Baohan was bullying others because he was a judge.
The onlookers pointed at Xu Baohan and started talking among themselves.
âI heard heâs a judge. No wonder heâs so arrogant.â
âThe judge has power, right? So he thinks he can get away with it no matter what he does.â
âJudges are powerful. Thereâs no justice in this world.â
Xu Baohan was unruffled when he heard the comments and said to Chen Ke, âI did hit you, but if you say that Iâm using my power to bully you, then thatâs a slander against a public official. You used to study law, so you donât need me to tell you the consequences.â
Chen Ke sobered up and chuckled. âYouâre saying that Iâm slandering you. What evidence do you have?â
Xu Baohan turned to look at An Lan. âLawyer An, someone as cautious as you should have a recording of the incident, right?â
An Lan looked at him in surprise, then smiled. âIndeed.â
Then she turned on the speaker so everyone could hear Chen Keâs words from beginning to end. The onlookers immediately glared at Chen Ke, especially the women. âHow shameless he is. How can a man be so low?â
âOh my God, this has really refreshed my understanding of scumbags.â
âDoes he think that having a Porsche is that impressive?â
â...â
The table was suddenly turned. Chen Ke wished he could crawl into a hole in the ground and shouted, âI was drunk just now.â
Xu Baohan clenched his fists. He had only heard the second half of the harassment. It turned out Chen Ke had said so many harsh words before he came. He had really gone too easy on this guy.
He picked Chen Ke up and said coldly, âOne speaks the truth when he gets drunk. Besides, I donât think youâre drunk at all. You only drank to embolden yourself to speak your mind, but these words of yours completely constitute an insult and sexual harassment. Not only were you verbally attacking her, you also physically harassed her. Itâs enough to have you detained.â
Ignoring the pain in his face, Chen Ke hurriedly said, âWhen did I physically harass her?â
He knew that as long as there was no physical harassment, his punishment wouldnât be too severe.
âMy hand.â An Lan raised her left hand. âItâs red from being grabbed by you. This is physical contact. The police will take it as evidence when we get to the police station later.â
âYouâre simply lying,â Chen Ke roared.
âYouâre wrong. Lawyers will never make a statement without evidence.â An Lan smiled lightly, âYou were a law student and you forgot never to mess with a lawyer. Maybe youâve made some money and get forgetful. Itâs okay, Iâll refresh your memory.â
She dialed 110. When she waited for the line to get through, she said to Chen Ke, âBy the way, do you think driving a Porsche is awesome? I have a Ferrari at home, but I think lawyers should keep a low profile occasionally, so I basically donât drive it.â
