School Beauty's Invincible Martial Expert

Chapter 131: Compensate for the Loss



A group of people were waiting at the entrance of the community.

"Yo, the kid's back!" Fan Jian spoke up.

Xiao Han had just gotten out of the taxi when he saw the group standing at the community entrance. As their gazes met, Xiao Han immediately realized they were there to cause trouble for him. However, he wasn't nervous; on the contrary, he was rather relieved. Because they hadn't gone straight to his home to create a scene but had come to solve the problem with him.

This was actually what he had hoped for. Had they rashly gone to his house, it would have infuriated Xiao Han.

With a mentality focused on solving the problem, Xiao Han was quite at ease.

Six or seven people immediately surrounded him.

"Xiao Han, we've been waiting for you for a long time," Fan Jian said with a sly smile at the corner of his mouth.

"Waiting for me to do what?" Xiao Han glanced at him.

"What do you think?" Fan Jian smiled and then said, "The injury on Li Hao's head was caused by you; as the responsible party, shouldn't you bear the responsibility?"

"At the root of it all, he insulted someone first!" Xiao Han smiled and said, "Hitting him with a bottle was already being polite."

"Xiao Han, I didn't expect you, young as you are, to talk so big!" Fan Jian couldn't stand Xiao Han anymore. No wonder Liu Xiaolei clung to Xiao Han—was it because she was tricked by Xiao Han's glib tongue? Otherwise, with Liu Xiaolei's beautiful looks, how could she ever fall for a trashy man like Xiao Han?

"I brushed my teeth!" Xiao Han said with a light smile.

"You!" Fan Jian was nearly spitting blood at Xiao Han's nonsensical reply. Through gritted teeth, he said, "Enough bullshit, life pays for life, debt pays for debt. You hurt Li Hao; we won't pursue your criminal responsibility, but at the very least, you should pay his medical bills, right?"

"How much?" Xiao Han asked nonchalantly.

"Twenty thousand!" Li Hao's mouth curled up in a smug smile. Twenty thousand yuan wasn't a large sum for himself, but for a poor family like Xiao Han's, and even more so for a poor student, it was definitely an astronomical figure. Such an expensive compensation would undoubtedly be incredibly painful and distressing.

"Twenty thousand?!" Xiao Han was slightly shocked.

"Yes!" Li Hao nodded and said, "Twenty thousand yuan for medical and emotional distress compensation. Do you want to pay now, or some other time?"

"I don't have cash on me right now," Xiao Han replied indifferently, and then said, "Meet here at this time tomorrow, and I'll give you the money."

The crowd listened and was somewhat astonished.

This was completely beyond everyone's expectations. According to everyone's predictions, Xiao Han should have been scared to the point of wetting himself on the spot, maybe even falling to his knees begging for mercy. They had even thought about how they would humiliate and torture Xiao Han. But Xiao Han's words left them at a loss.

"This..." Li Hao turned his head to look at Fan Jian.

"Hmph, I think you're planning to take the chance to run away, aren't you?" Fan Jian's mouth curved up slightly, and then he said, "Will you dare to come tomorrow?"

"Of course I will!" Xiao Han nodded.

"Don't say anything else!" Fan Jian waved his hand and then said, "You said you don't have cash, right? Tell me, where is your cash? We'll go with you to withdraw it!"

"Are you in such a hurry to get it?" Xiao Han asked.

"Hehehe..." Li Hao chuckled and said, "It's not that we're in a rush; we're afraid you'll run away."

"Such a trivial matter over twenty thousand yuan!" Xiao Han scoffed. "Look how anxious you all are."

After speaking, Xiao Han immediately took out his phone and called Big Fatty, asking him to bring twenty thousand yuan over quickly. Upon hearing this, Big Fatty thought something had happened to Xiao Han, did not ask any questions, borrowed twenty thousand yuan in cash from Yang Lu, and roared towards Fuxing Community on his motorcycle.

Arrived at the community entrance.

Screech...

Big Fatty stopped with his rather cool motorcycle skills.

"Xiao Han, what happened?" Big Fatty hurriedly took off his helmet.

"Did you bring the money?" Xiao Han asked.

"Brought it!" Big Fatty nodded quickly. However, something about the scene in front of him seemed off. Six or seven people surrounding Xiao Han—it looked eerily similar to demanding protection money. Big Fatty suddenly became anxious: "Fuck, what's this? Demanding protection money in broad daylight?"

Big Fatty turned to grab an iron stick from his motorcycle, ready to teach those guys a lesson.

"Stop!" Xiao Han called out.

"Xiao Han, you can't let these guys get cocky!" Big Fatty exclaimed. "We must show them a lesson. Otherwise, they will block you for money again in the future."

"No, you misunderstood!" Xiao Han hurriedly said.

"What exactly happened?" Li Dapang asked anxiously.

"Here..." Xiao Han pointed at Li Hao and then said, "I bashed his head to look like this, and he's demanding 20,000 yuan from me."

"Fuck, extortion?" Li Dapang flared up even more upon hearing this, "If it was protection money, I would've just paid you if I couldn't beat you. Fuck, you want 20,000 yuan just for a scratch on the head? Why don't you go rob someone?"

"Isn't emotional distress worth money?" Li Hao retorted.

"Ptooey!"

Li Dapang spat, cursing, "Fuck your emotional distress. I'll spit all over you, believe it or not!"

Li Hao was stunned, looking at the other man in astonishment. Fan Jian, who stood beside them, said, "20,000 yuan is reasonable compensation. If you're not willing to pay, then we'll have to call the police."

"Big Fatty, just give them the money!" Xiao Han gestured with a wave of his hand.

"This..." Li Dapang seemed reluctant.

"Don't worry, this money isn't given for nothing!" Xiao Han grinned.

"Huh?" Li Dapang was taken aback.

At this point, Xiao Han took 20,000 yuan from Li Dapang's hand and handed it to Li Hao, saying, "Here's 20,000 yuan, count it carefully."

Li Hao was dumbfounded, Xiao Han had so readily handed over the 20,000 yuan to him, which caught him off guard and left him unsure of what to do next. Holding the money, Li Hao turned to look at Fan Jian. After a brief moment of thought, Fan Jian said, "Xiao Han, don't think this is over just because you've given 20,000 yuan.

If Li Hao experiences any dizziness or headaches in the future, you will be held responsible."

After speaking, the group turned and left, leaving Xiao Han and Li Dapang alone on the spot. Li Dapang looked even more confused.

"Xiao Han, what's going on?" Li Dapang asked anxiously.

"That kid deserves a beating!" Xiao Han replied contemptuously, "Here's what happened...

Xiao Han repeated the whole story to Li Dapang. After hearing it, Li Dapang immediately said, "Fuck, well done, people like him should be beaten. And that guy called 'Fan Jian', you should take care of him too; I bet all the rotten ideas came from him."

"No rush, we have plenty of time!" Xiao Han squinted his eyes and said, "This 20,000 yuan, the old man will eventually take it back with interest."

"Heh heh!" Li Dapang chuckled and said, "Alright then, I'm waiting for you. Make sure you involve me when the time comes."

"Rest assured, I'll definitely involve you," Xiao Han sneered.

Watching their retreating figures growing distant, Xiao Han's gaze glinted with a cold light. This was the first time he genuinely wanted to deal with someone. Xiao Han never intended to harm others, and he didn't this time either, but since others had bullied him, how could he let it go so easily?

............

Returning home, Xiao Han had a quick bite to eat and then hurried off to the walking street store.

During the festive season, the streets were not short of people, mostly young people with some idle cash or children with New Year's money, roaming the streets looking to buy what they desired or gathering in groups to eat something.

The Apple authorized store was still doing well. There was a constant stream of people buying phones and computers. Now, students were the main customers for Apple products, especially college students. With their generous New Year's money, they could buy their preferred electronic products.

Some even brought their parents to the Apple Store, where one could encounter all sorts of people and see many aspects of human nature.

"Xiao Han, you're here?" Yang Lu was dressed in a black uniform, her fitted blazer outlining her curvy figure. Several unmarried young men in the store showed extraordinary attentiveness to her, hoping to win her affections. Unfortunately, they felt somewhat inferior because Yang Lu's status was obvious. As the general manager of Hanmen Technology, she earned over ten thousand yuan a month.

Rumors even suggested that Yang Lu was the boss of Hanmen Technology, making these employees of Hanmen Technology feel even more inferior.

Earning only a little over four thousand yuan a month, they had no advantage when pursuing Yang Lu and even felt a great disparity in status.

"Mhm." Xiao Han nodded his head, went into the store, and directly into the office. He then took off his coat and hung it on the coat rack nearby.

Yang Lu followed him in quickly.

"Is there something wrong?" Yang Lu asked curiously.

"Where's Big Fatty?" Xiao Han asked with curiosity.

"He hasn't arrived yet!" Yang Lu shook her head, "It seems he's bringing his cousin for an interview tonight, so I came to the store early. I waited for over half an hour and he still hasn't shown up!"

"Really?" Xiao Han was taken aback, then said, "That guy is so unreliable."

Speak of the devil, and he shall appear.

At that moment, Li Da entered with a twenty-something-year-old male. As soon as he arrived, he shouted loudly, "Sister Yang, Sister Yang!"

"Fatty, Manager Yang is in the office!" someone in the store replied.

"Alright, I'll go find her." Li Da nodded hurriedly.
