Looking at the two of them, Chen Ke lost his confidence.
He really didnât want to have a lawsuit. No matter how shameless he was, he knew that he was in the wrong and heâd be convicted of sexual harassment. He was just trying to see if he could be convicted only of verbal sexual harassment.
After deliberating for a moment, Chen Ke calmed down. âIf you guys donât agree to settle this privately, then forget it. Let the police file a case. In any case, I will only be detained for a maximum of five days or so.â
Xu Baohan furrowed his brows. This case was a little troublesome because Chen Ke also knew the law.
âSure, I happen to know a friend from a television station,â An Lan said with a smile. âShe has been seeking news recently. A case like this will act as a good alert for women if it is broadcast.â
Chen Ke could no longer remain calm. With the development of the Internet, if he were to appear in the news, his reputation would be ruined. After all, he was a businessman and he didnât have a wife.
âAn Lan, you... Donât go too far.â He glared at her with red eyes.
âWe have settled it.â An Lan looked at the police officer.
The corners of the police officerâs mouth twitched. Chen Ke clenched his fists and struggled for a moment. Finally, he lowered his head and said in a low voice, âAn Lan, Iâm sorry. Tonight it was my fault. I wonât dare to mess with you again. Please forgive me.â
âForgive you?â An Lan took a step towards him and took out her phone. She found a charity event for needy children and said, âSure, donât you have money? If you donate 100,000 yuan, Iâll forgive you.â
Xu Baohan was surprised. He had thought that she was going to take money with Alipay, but to his surprise, she wanted to collect money for needy children. It seemed he knew little about her.
Chen Ke glared at her. â100,000? It wonât cost me 100,000 yuan to spend a night with a woman. Youâre robbing me!â
âIâm not taking your 100,000 yuan for myself. Iâm just asking you to help those orphans who donât have the money to go to school. You can consider it as doing charity for yourself. A person like you must have done a lot of bad things,â An Lan sneered, âYou keep saying that you have money, but you donât have any kindness at all. If youâre not willing to settle it privately, then forget it. Iâm fine with it.â
The policeman at the side cleared his throat and pretended that he didnât hear the conversation.
âFine, Iâll donate. Iâll treat it as giving money away to beggars,â Chen Ke said resignation.
The policemanâs face darkened and warned him, âWatch your words. How can you call these children beggars? If it this lady didnât agree to settle, I would have locked you up for a few days.â
Being reprimanded by the police officer, Chen Ke did not dare to say another word and donated 100,000 yuan under An Lanâs supervision. The three of them signed the papers and left the police station.
Although Chen Ke was not happy with the result, he got a huge setback this time. He did not dare to stay with them any longer and left in a taxi dejectedly.
At the entrance of the police station, Xu Baohan stared at the slim woman standing under the streetlights. She had come out in a hurry and was only wearing a white sweater. Her cheeks were slightly red from drinking, looking as if she had applied a thin layer of rouge. She exuded an alluring aura.
He was lost in his thoughts for a moment, feeling that An Lan was like a book. At first glance, she was only a pretty woman. However, after getting to know her better, he was more and more interested in her.
He had never liked people who loved money and did not like the way people talked about money. However, the more he saw her, the more he liked her.
He liked the way she looked when she got aggressive.
