Chapter 244: You Fight, I Referee
Although Su Ni, once the best tactician at the police academy, subconsciously sensed danger approaching, she couldn’t react in time due to the suddenness of the situation!
In her astonishment and flurry of thoughts, a strong, fair hand suddenly reached out from behind her!
And without any warning.
Suddenly, Su Ni’s eyes lit up!
If it weren’t for that caring hand amidst the stirring crowd, even if she were to be assaulted, what could she do when she hadn’t taken good care of herself?
"Friend, for such a trivial matter, it doesn’t seem worth making such a fuss. After all, we live in the same neighborhood."
Startled, Su Ni quickly turned around and saw Lin Zifeng, smiling behind her as if he were a mountain of Read the latest chapters on NovelHub - completely free!
Furrowing her brows, Su Ni had no time to think, but after a small turmoil in her heart, she quickly moved to stand beside Lin Zifeng.
With a casual block from Lin Zifeng, the Buick owner’s chubby cheeks trembled, and he quickly withdrew his porky hands. Although Lin Zifeng didn’t deliberately stop him, his gaze told the Buick owner to act with decency.
"Who the hell are you? Find somewhere cool to hang out, and stop meddling in our business," said the owner of the Volkswagen, who hadn’t seen this scene. In such a Read the latest chapters on NovelHub - completely free!
"Yeah, don’t be a busybody, go find somewhere cool to hang out., it’s none of your business." Seeing the Volkswagen owner speaking, the Buick owner hurried to add his statement.
If it weren’t for Su Ni, I wouldn’t bother with your nonsense. Lin Zifeng mused to himself with a bitter smile.
"What are you doing here? This isn’t your problem, go back."
Seeing Lin Zifeng’s softly smiling face full of sunshine, Su Ni leaned her head on his shoulder and whispered to persuade him.
She was already exhausted from this incident, and she didn’t want Lin Zifeng to get involved in this mess. Offending them would not only benefit him negatively but would also bring trouble upon him.
"Don’t worry, it’s all fine." Lin Zifeng still seemed very calm, confidently nodded at Su Ni, and under her astonished gaze, he said to the two still boisterous car owners, "Weren’t you just about to fight? Come on then! What are you waiting for? Let everyone see who really has the skills, see who can beat the other to death. It’s just a matter of paying some money, right?"
Despite her initial hopes, Su Ni’s pretty face immediately fell, and she wore a fully doomed expression.
Even the car owners themselves were stunned by Lin Zifeng’s words. Everyone exchanged glances.
They thought he was just another Peacemaker who came to resolve their conflict, pondering how to put on some airs later, given someone was mediating. At most, they wouldn’t truly fight and would just vent verbally.
But they would never have believed that those words were said by Lin Zifeng.
Even the onlookers were shocked by Lin Zifeng’s seemingly indifferent, yet provocative taunt.
Everyone’s heard about people who intervene or mediate.
But today was truly the first time they heard someone encouraging others to fight!
They had certainly gained new insight this time.
"What... what did you just say?"
Both the Buick and Volkswagen owners looked at each other, faces tense and alarmed as they glanced toward Lin Zifeng.
Yet Lin Zifeng appeared calm as water, touched his nose and said lazily, "Didn’t you want to fight? Then what are you waiting for? Go ahead, let’s see who’s stronger, who’s more ruthless. Worst case, someone dies, just pay some money and it’s settled. You guys have money, so why stand here like fools? And if you like, I might even consider refereeing for you."
Before he had even finished speaking, furious lines appeared on the foreheads of the surrounding crowd.
This wasn’t mediation at all; it was outright provocation.
Even Su Ni was confused by Lin Zifeng, hastily grabbing the hem of Lin Zifeng’s garment, fearing he might actually cause serious trouble, which would jeopardize her reinstatement.
But Lin Zifeng shook off her hand, threw a confident glance at Su Ni, then ignored her. Instantly, Su Ni was confused again.
This was the first time she had seen such confidence in Lin Zifeng’s eyes, his dark eyes shimmering like the sun, moon, and stars. In that brief instant, they imparted an intriguing and mysterious charm.
Although Su Ni had always had a less favorable attitude towards Lin Zifeng, the temperament he displayed at that moment indeed caught her off guard, leaving her speechless and subconsciously agreeing with his approach.
Su Ni’s cheeks flushed a rare shade of red. What was happening to her? Although she had seen this man many times, why could she not refuse him today when he suddenly exhibited such a compelling presence?
The human heart is a deep and mysterious place, and Lin Zifeng no longer had the ability to conjecture.
The bright sunshine lent his features the air of a sunny, boy-next-door.
Although Lin Zifeng was not handsome, his presence was quite charismatic.
"Are you, are you sick?"
The owner of the Volkswagen was the first to react, exchanging a look with the Buick’s owner before casting a strange glance at Lin Zifeng.
Lin Zifeng pulled out a cigarette, lit it slowly for himself, and smiled, "I am not sick, it is you who are sick! You need treatment." He answered very earnestly.
Lin Zifeng spoke easily, showing no fear of offending any of them.
"Are you fucking looking for trouble deliberately, itching for a fight?"
The owner of the Buick was also infuriated, glaring at Lin Zifeng with his frog-like eyes.
"Oh? Was I wrong? A moment ago, you two were fighting like sworn enemies, and now it’s all fine. Do whatever you like, we definitely won’t stop you. I can assure you of that."
Lin Zifeng turned to Su Ni with a smile and said, "Right?"
Su Ni was startled, then nodded her head following his lead.
It was all out of trust for Lin Zifeng. She herself didn’t understand why she had nodded. Later at home, she would repeatedly blame herself for conniving with this scoundrel.
Seeing the Buick and Volkswagen owners’ glances turn toward Su Ni, Su Ni remained silent and nodded again, then looked around. She noticed the crowd was avoiding their eyes as if nothing was amiss, completely ignoring the two fools...
Finally, the two fools realized their foolish acts.
Just as the Buick owner was about to step forward and explode at Lin Zifeng to save face, a nosy friend beside him grabbed his wrist and whispered something. After hearing it, the Buick owner’s face dramatically changed.
Finally, the Buick owner, with red eyes, rushed to apologize to the Volkswagen owner first. When something is off, there must be a reason.
The Volkswagen owner, informed of Lin Zifeng’s background, seeing the Buick owner taking action, also unwilling to be the lesser man, quickly shook hands with the Buick owner. They hurriedly got into their cars and scurried away from the scene because if they had stayed any longer, and things escalated further, they probably wouldn’t even know how they died.
