Chapter 426: Chapter 426: Twists and Turns

"Zhiyi!" Liao Yi spoke up to stop her, "Don’t agree to it, they’re clearly just picking a fight."

Lin Zhiyi gave her a reassuring look.

Then she walked up to the group, "Since you’re asking for money, there must be a reason. Write a written statement now, explaining why you’re taking the money, how about that?"

"Okay."

The Du Family parents, hearing they could get half a million, agreed without a second thought.

Before the shop assistants could hand them paper and pen, the two of them pulled out pens they carried and started writing on a scrap of paper.

The remaining five seemed to not expect things to go so smoothly, looking subconsciously at the three men who had accompanied them, beyond just feeling happy.

Lin Zhiyi also carefully observed the three men.

They were tall and stout, standing firmly, like professional bodyguards.

Could they have been hired by that woman in charge?

No.

If they could afford bodyguards, why carry a fake bag? 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Lin Zhiyi had been with the Gong Family for so many years, she had seen thousands of brand-name bags.

Just among the Gong Family relatives, there were no duplicate bags.

The bag of this arrogant woman looked exactly like one Liu He used to have and often took to play mahjong.

It was obviously fake.

Lin Zhiyi turned her head to look at Gong Chen, wanting to confirm her suspicion.

Gong Chen nodded slightly.

It seemed those three men were the key.

"Alright." The group handed over the written agreement and urged, "Time to pay up, right?"

"Okay, but I’ve arranged for a witness, they should be here soon." Lin Zhiyi glanced at the clock on the wall.

The woman seemed a bit unsure, looking again at the three men.

The leading man frowned and gave the five women a signal.

"No way! You have to pay now, or don’t blame us for being rude!"

"Yes!"

Not only were the five women yelling, but the Du Family parents and a few intrusive relatives were also shouting.

As they spoke, the three men stepped forward.

Liao Yi wanted to step forward to help Lin Zhiyi, but she was stopped and pushed back by Lin Zhiyi.

When the man’s fist fell, Liao Yi screamed.

But instead of pain, there was a dull thud of a heavy object hitting the ground.

Everyone watched in horror as a black figure kicked the man aside, with a long, straight leg pressing on the man’s knee joint, the sound of breaking bones making the man howl in pain.

The other two men, sensing trouble, immediately stepped in to help, but they were no match for the masked man.

Soon, they were all beaten to the ground.

Gong Chen stood upright, his face covered with a mask, his dark eyes looking even more profound and cold.

The leading woman saw the situation and was about to run, but Lin Zhiyi and Liao Yi blocked her path from both sides.

"You don’t want the money?"

"What are you going to do? Be careful, I’ll call the police," the woman threatened.

"No need for that trouble, I’ll call the police for you."

As Lin Zhiyi finished speaking, three police officers entered from outside.

"A gentleman reported that there’s extortion happening here, what’s going on?" the police officer asked.

The woman was stunned, looking at Lin Zhiyi in panic.

"You, you really called the police? Aren’t you afraid of losing your store?"

"If I give you the money, will you let me go? Next time, try carrying a real bag if you want to settle accounts with someone." Lin Zhiyi glanced at her bag.

She instinctively hid the bag behind her.

Lin Zhiyi handed six copies of the agreement to the police: "Evidence, they wrote it themselves."

"Nonsense! You obviously sell fake goods!" The woman still struggled.

"Miss, although my store is small, it doesn’t mean I don’t understand the rules. There’s a video of the inspection conducted by me and the courier company for every item delivered. Comparing the necklace in your hand with the one in the video will reveal the truth. Considering the large amount you tried to extort from me, keep your story for the police." Lin Zhiyi said coldly.
