Song Kai ran to the teachersâ office. When he heard the police officerâs questions, the corners of his mouth twitched.
He looked at the calm Jiang Jingchen, and then at Gan Fei, whose face was red with anger.
Song Kai knew about Gan Pelâs deliberate collision with Tang Beibei to hurt her. So, Jiang Jingchen deliberately designed this scene to teach Gan Fei a lesson. âYes, this gentleman picked up my ball. I asked him to return it to me and he accidentally threw it at this female student. After he apologized, he gave her some money.â
âYes, I did take the money but itâs fake!â Gan Fei retorted.
Song Kai was helpless. âI was standing quite far away so 1 didnât see in detail what happened. 1 canât help you prove anything.â
Gan Fei felt extremely aggrieved.
Jiang Jingchen then asked, âMs. Gan Fei, you keep insisting that the money 1 gave you is fake. Are you trying to ask me for another 10,000 yuan?â
âIâve already given you 10,000 yuan, so I wonât compensate you again. As for you being cheated, I sympathize with you. You must be more careful with online transactions in the future. Donât fall for another scam.â
â⦠You, liar! You were the one who gave me the money. Itâs fake. Iâll sue you!â The police officer saw the situation and interrupted, âMs. Gan Fei, you need evidence to sue someone. You donât have any evidence. You should apologize!â âI am not apologizing. 1 was the one who has been bullied!â
Jiang Jingchen said even more aggrievedly, âI gave you more than 10,000 yuan, but I was accused of being a swindler. Miss Gan Fei, your incessant involvement with me will make my wife misunderstand that you are interested in me.â
Tang Beibei, who was playing spectator at the moment, nodded when she suddenly heard her name.
âIâm going to get angry, hmph!â
Everyone thought that Tang Beibeiâs acting was too fake!
Gan Fei was so angry that her internal organs were about to bleed.
She was the one who was hit on the head. Apart from the medical fees, she had already forked out 10,500 yuan and she must apologize now?
Jiang Jingchen continued, âIâve never been to college. I thought all college students were smart and ethical. Miss Gan Fei is quite good-looking, but she wants to sue me after taking my money. Iâm really disappointed.â
Gan Fei was speechless.
The police officer tried to reason with Gan Fei, âThese 10,000 yuan of counterfeit money sells for about five or six yuan in a normal supermarket. Itâs hell money people burn for the deceased. Itâs crudely made and easy to identify.â
âYou were careless in not recognizing that they were fake. Fortunately, you havenât spent any of the money or you would have made a fool of yourself.â âItâs possible that your 10,000 yuan has been swapped. This is the first young master of the Jiang family. Why would he give you fake money?â
The police officer had asked for Jiang Jingchenâs ID card for the purposes of this investigation. Jiang Jingchen was very cooperative. When he handed over his ID card, the police officer scanned the information and found out that his father was Jiang Xing.
Jiang Xing was the head of the Jiang family and the chairman and CEO of Jiang Corporation.
Gan Fei looked at Jiang Jingchen in disbelief. âHeâs the first young master of the Jiang family?â
âYes, I am.â
Gan Fei swallowed hard and shut up in awe.
She knew that Tang Beibei was married to a rich second-generation heir, but she did not expect her husband to be the first young master of the Jiang family. That was one of the wealthiest families in the city!
Jiang Jingchen was probably the kind of super-rich second-generation heir who wouldnât bat an eyelid when shelling out 10,000 yuan.
Now, even she believed that someone else had swapped her money.
But who swapper her money?
âMs. Gan Fei, youâve made Young Master Jiang come here today for nothing.
You should apologize to him!â The police officer reminded.
Gan Fei quickly lowered her head and said in fear, âI-Iâm sorry. Someone must have swapped my money. Thatâs why I misunderstood you. Itâs my fault!â
Jiang Jingchen said with a long face, âThis has indeed been an unpleasant experience. 1 gave you 10,000 yuan, but you spent less than 10 yuan for your treatment. Iâll give you 1,000 yuan for the inconvenience. You should give me back 9,000 yuan!â
âWhat? You, youâve already given me the money. How can 1 return it?â
âWhy not? I wonât despise the money and consider it dirty. Youâve inconvenienced me big time, so you should compensate me, right? I donât want much, just 9,000 yuan.â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
â⦠But 1,1 donât have that much money.â
âItâs not my fault that you donât have money, Miss Gan Fei,â Jiang Jingchen said coldly.
Gan Fei was on the verge of tears. She had lost 10,000 yuan because of her greed, and now she was going to lose another 9,000 yuan. She couldnât accept it.
The police officer saw that she was about to cry, so he negotiated with Jiang Jingchen and asked if the compensation could be lowered. After all, Gan Fei was a student and couldnât afford that much money.
But Jiang Jingchen said, âNine thousand isnât a lot. Itâs a lesson for her. Before 1 came, 1 heard my wifeâs classmate tell me that Gan Fei had quarreled with my wife before and scolded her for no reason. Sheâs just deliberately causing trouble for my wife.â
The police officer had heard from Gan Fei herself that she and Tang Beibei had a small conflict.
Gan Feiâs face turned red.
âIâm sorry. I-1 was inconsiderate before. Tang Beibei, youâre a magnanimous person. Please donât hold it against me.â
Tang Beibei pulled a long face. âIf you hadnât looked for me, I would have forgotten about you. I never thought about holding anything against you.â ââ¦â Gan Feiâs expression turned pale.
Song Kai interrupted, âSince weâre all classmates, why donât we forget about this money?â
Tang Beibei nodded. âYeah. We are all classmates. Thereâs no need to hold grudges. Letâs forget it.â
âThank you so much. I truly understand my mistake. Tang Beibei, 1 didnât expect you to be such a nice person.â
Tang Beibei was speechless.
After the reconciliation, Jiang Jingchen left with Tang Beibei. Gan Fei felt bad and called out to them.
âTang Beibei, Mr. Jiang, let me treat you to a meal.â
Jiang Jingchen looked at her indifferently. âI donât lack money for a meal.
Goodbye.â
Gan Fei watched them walk away and stared at Tang Beibeiâs back. She would be lying if she said that she wasnât jealous.
Tang Beibei was actually married to the first young master of the Jiang family. Wasnât she above everyone else in the future?
She turned around and saw Song Kai. She thanked him. If he hadnât intervened, she would have to fork out another 9,000 yuan.
Her family wasnât rich, and the 10,000 yuan she lost was already most of her savings.
Song Kai glared at her. âDonât provoke others with your ill intentions. God is watching everything. Youâll receive retribution.â
Gan Feiâs face turned red with embarrassment and anger. She lowered her head and didnât dare to speak.
Tang Beibei followed Jiang Jingchen into the car with a long face. After they both got in, she couldnât hold it in anymore and asked him what was going on.
Jiang Jingchen said, â1 taught her a lesson for you. Is it satisfying?â
âVery satisfying!â
Tang Beibei was delighted when she saw Gan Feiâs aggrieved expression.
When Gan Fei knocked into her and mocked her for getting all the attention despite being average, she must have done it on purpose.
âHubby, did you arrange it long ago?â
âThereâs no need to arrange such things. Itâs true that I withdrew cash for Lunar New Year. Sometimes dealing with whatever that comes my way works out just as well in the end.â
Jiang Jingchen spoke very calmly, without blinking or having his face turn red.
He didnât want his woman to think that he was a scheming person who could easily take care of a small fry like Gan Fei.
Tang Beibei looked at him doubtfully. âThen what about the money stolen from Gan Fei?â
Jiang Jingchen pondered for a few seconds. âIt was just to teach her a lesson.
The stolen money has been donated to a charity organization. Just treat it as a new year gift to the children in the poor mountainous areas.â
âHubby, youâre so kind!â Tang Beibei couldnât help but praise him.
âYes, kindness begets kindness.â
P.S. from the author, Ming Zhi ask, âYoung Master Jiang, your definition of kindness is different from that of ordinary people.â
Young Master Jiang replied, âIâm not an ordinary person.â
Ming Zhi secretly laughed; only his silly wife would believe his nonsense.
Tang Beibei asked,â⦠Are you talking about me?â
Ming Zhi was speechless..
