The onlookers gasped.
Xu Baohan raised his eyebrows and looked at her.
Chen Ke gritted his teeth. âYouâre bragging. How could you possibly drive a Ferrari?â
âPoverty really limits your imagination.â An Lan shook her head sympathetically.
Some cops happened to be patrolling nearby, so they arrived not long after.
The alumni in the KTV room also knew about this matter. Cao Meng, Lin Hua, and the others knew that Chen Ke had always had improper thoughts towards An Lan, but they did not expect that he would do such a thing. However, some of them were Chen Keâs friends, so they tried to smooth things over. âAn Lan, why donât you guys settle this privately? After all, we are all alumni, and today is the schoolâs 70th anniversary and a rare occasion for everyone to gather together. Thereâs no need to go to the police station.â
Cao Meng said bluntly, âForgive my bluntness, but when he did this, did he ever consider that we are alumni? When we were eating, he was looking for trouble. An Lan was nice so she didnât say anything nasty, but he went too far this time.â
Xiao Dong, who had been reprimanded by her, said embarrassedly, âBut no matter what, senior Xu hit him and it wouldnât be good for senior Xuâs reputation if he really went to the police station.â
Xu Baohan glanced at him. âDonât worry. I was very careful when I hit him. The doctors would decide that he has only a light injury. He will recover on his own in no time. I will only need to pay for his medical fees and meals.â
Everyone was stunned and they turned to look at Chen Ke.
Chen Ke, whose face, nose, mouth, and chest were burning from the pain, was also stunned. Only then did he remember which parts Xu Baohan had hit. A chill ran down his spine as he understood the situation. âXu Baohan, you are so despicable.â
âNo, this is called obeying the law,â Xu Baohan corrected him calmly, âI attacked because I was angry at the moment, but my rationality kept me in check. I just taught you a lesson. The law will decide the rest of the punishment for you.â
He was so calm and frank that even An Lan couldnât help but admire him.
If this guy was also a lawyer, he would be a fierce rival for her.
Luckily, he was a judge.
The others looked at each other and decided they would not mess with Xu Baohan in the future.
Xing Yuan and Cao Meng who had guessed Xu Baohanâs thoughts were screaming in their hearts. If Xu Baohan and An Lan were together, the two of them would be unrivalled. They decided not to mess with these two in the future.
After the cops arrived, they inquired about the incident and brought An Lan, Xu Baohan, and Chen Ke to the police station.
In the main hall of the police station, after the police understood what had happened, they also disliked people like Chen Ke. However, since the case was not big, they would usually advise the people involved settle it privately.
âHow about this?â The cop advised, âYou guys have hit him and vented your anger. He has also learned his lesson, so letâs just take a step back.â
Xu Baohan looked at An Lan silently, indicating that it was up to her.
âNo,â An Lan shook her head decisively, âHe has learned his lesson here today, but what happens when he is with another woman? What if he uses his drunkenness to sexually harass another woman? I was lucky today since someone was there to help me, but what about other women? Will they be that lucky? He should be punished by the law.â
Chen Ke said fiercely, âAn Lan, you think youâre great because you know the law, right? Do you think I donât know the law? If worst comes to worst, Iâll see you in court.â
âSure, Iâll drive a Ferrari to see you in court.â An Lanâs gaze was as fierce as a torch.
Chen Ke: â...â
Xu Baohan coughed lightly. âI can testify in court.â
