Therefore, when faced with an oncoming car, even when it’s still within a distance where one could run away, people would stare blankly as the vehicle rushed towards them and ended up being injured.
But Chacha wasn’t like that. She was calm, not panicked, and her legs weren’t feeling weak. She still had enough energy to deal with the drunkard. When the car was about to hit her, she immediately ran towards the drunkard and punched him in the face.
The drunkard was confused and stared at Chen Cha in a daze.
The car drove over at high speed without hitting anyone. After making an emergency brake, the vehicle made a sharp screeching sound and stopped not far away. The person inside made a brief phone call, then drove away.
Seeing that he actually ran away instead of coming over to continue his task, Chacha felt frustrated. She said to the person on the other side of the earphone, “Come here.”
“I’m not coming over. Are you high? You actually hit me!” The drunkard felt wronged. What happened to the weak girl? How come she’s hitting people?
“I’m not talking to you.” Chacha no longer looked frightened and showed a calm and gentle smile. “Mister, I hope you can calm down a bit. I have something I want to ask you.”
Her tone was steady and carried a reassuring power.
The drunkard calmed down for a moment, then in a flash, his instinct told him things had taken a turn for the worse.
His companion had run away and he had also completed what he had to do. It’s better to leave right now.
“Ai, Brother is leaving first~” The drunkard left a contemptuous sentence and scampered away.
Undettered, Chacha stood still and waited. After a few minutes, Mr. Drunkard was pressed down by several men in black suits.
“Don’t be so rough, it makes us seem like we’re breaking the law.” Chacha addressed the newly arrived people.
The men in black thought her words were reasonable, so they released their hands.
Although the drunkard’s hands were released, it had been twisted and dislocated. It hurt. He walked up to Chen Cha with tears in his eyes.
They told him the target was a fragile beautiful girl! Forget that she hit him in the face, she even have bodyguards. This job was a huge loss.
Mr. Drunkard, at this moment, withdrew from the good-looks club, which was to be celebrated.
“Don’t worry, we’re civilized people. We won’t do anything to you.” Chacha smiled.
The drunkard thought that this kind of person was more terrifying, like a paper tiger that could easily kill people’s whole family. Real tiger appeared gentle, but its methods were very fierce.
The drunkard nodded frantically and said, “I’m just teasing a beautiful girl. I’m teasing you because you’re good-looking, that’s all. I have absolutely no intention of forcing myself on you or anything like that. Boss, please let me go! I swear I’ll never drink again or hit on beautiful women.”
“There’s no rush, let’s go to the car and talk.” A car stopped in front of them as soon as Chacha’s words fell.
The drunkard’s heart went even colder, but he didn’t dare resist and got into the car with her obediently.
The two of them were sitting in the back and there were two other people in the front seat, both wearing black suits and had expressionless faces. They didn’t look like nice people.
The drunkard was so scared that he couldn’t help but admit his mistake over and over again.
At this moment, he felt that he hadn’t checked the information well, and so he suffered a big loss. He didn’t think that Chen Cha would come prepared. Therefore, he decided to just go along with her and muddle through.
It’s impossible to divulge who his employer was, not in this life time.
Otherwise, how would he survive?
Chacha asked, “How did the person who hired you contact you?”
“Huh?” The drunkard had an innocent look on his face. “What are you talking about, Boss? Why can’t I understand?”
Chacha revealed a smile that was more innocent than his and said, “I’ve heard of a game before, where a person is glued horizontally on the road with no people and no security camera, and then one can drive them over casually and crush them however they want. While getting crush, one can even admire your— Oh, no— the victim’s extremely frightened expression before death, which is like an art. What do you think of this game?”
“Cough, cough, cough……” The drunkard was frightened by her ‘misspoken’ word.
The two men in black in the front seat were quite playful. When they heard Chen Cha’s words, they chuckled loudly.
The person in the passenger seat said, “The feeling of that fat guy being squashed last time, tsk tsk.”
The one in the driver’s seat stated, “I think the skinnier ones feel better when squashed.”
The drunkard shed tears of horror. “Sister, don’t squash me. I have both old and young ones at home. My whole family depends on me to support them. If I die, all of them will die as well!”
Chacha said with a gentle smile. “Then be good and tell the truth.”
The drunkard swallowed hard.
Chacha said, “I’ll give you thirty seconds to think about it. I won’t wait after that.”
After saying so, Chacha coldly took out her phone, turned on the clock, and pressed the timer.
Time passed little by little and the whole car was silent. Everyone was like a wax figure, silent to the extreme.
The drunkard’s heart was beating faster and faster. He wasn’t sure whether Chen Cha would really kill him, but what if?
Except for him, everyone else in the car was calm, waiting for his answer with an air of indifference over someone else’s life or death, which put a lot of pressure on him.
Finally, when the seconds arrived at the 29th mark, the drunkard made up his mind and said, “Alright, I’ll say it, but I have a condition!”
Chacha pressed pause, put away the phone and asked, “What condition?”
“It’s true that someone hired me to harm you, but my job is done and I haven’t received the payment yet.” The drunkard said, “When the person gives me the money, this matter will be over. You can pay me for information then.”
Chacha asked with a smile. “How much will the person give you?”
The drunkard said, “One hundred thousand.”
“Just a hundred thousand ah……” Chacha murmured in a low voice.
The drunkard thought that one hundred thousand was already a lot, plus, what he had to do wasn’t difficult. It’s just that it would be troublesome to go to the police station later on.
Chacha told him, “I’ll give you that amount and another 100,000 yuan to buy your information. Tell me everything now.”
The drunkard wanted to say something else, but Chen Cha suddenly had a cold expression and said in a very plain tone, “Remember, you don’t have the right to choose now. Stop the chatter or you won’t even get a thing.”
The drunkard was startled. The look in this girl’s eyes was very similar to that of some madmen in his line of work. They’re the kind of people who would do what they promise.
He immediately suppressed all distracting thoughts and didn’t dare to deceive Chen Cha anymore. He said, “This morning, someone introduced me to a woman who had an easy job she wanted done. However, the other party refused to meet with me, so we added each other on WeChat. That’s where she sent me the task requirements as well as your information. After that, she transferred me a deposit of 20,000 yuan and I went to bed. When I woke up, I went to have a drink and when I saw that it was almost time, I came to find you. Ai, I’m just making a living. I definitely didn’t want to do you any harm. I’m sorry. You’re a generous person, so please don’t give me a hard time. I can give you any message recording or whatever you want, including the phone number and the WeChat account. Just spare me.”
“En, great.” Chacha showed a gentle smile and said, “Give me the phone you’ve used to contact your client.”
“Here you go.” The drunkard took out his phone and held it in front of Chacha with both hands. “The lock screen password is 968574.”
“Mm. “Chacha unlocked it, clicked on the note app and asked him, “Bank account number?”
“Is Alipay okay?”
“Yes.”
After the drunkard left his Alipay account, he finally got his wish and was able to leave the ghostly car.
Chacha watched him get out. At this time, a man’s voice could be heard from the earphone, “The person who drove away just now to escape has been caught. Do you want to see him now?”
“En.” Chacha said, “We’ll wait for you on this side of the intersection.”
“Okay.”
After that, Chacha spent some time and used the same method of coercion and inducement to buy the mobile phone from the owner of the getaway car. What he did was more troublesome, so Chacha had to pay him 600,000 yuan.
It cost her 800,000 yuan to get Wei Siyun’s dirt, which wasn’t a loss because it could be used to threaten Wei Siyun.
People like Wei Siyun have very thick-skin. She could be cursed at online, be doxxed and have blades sent to her, however, she couldn’t lose her current life style. It was the most terrifying thing for her.
After getting the evidence, Chacha invited a group of people to have a late-night snack. However, she didn’t eat and just paid for it. Afterwards, she went home.
Chacha was in a good mood, so she knocked on Jiao Yushi’s door with some snacks on her hand.
Jiao Yushi was wearing beige home clothes, which looked particularly casual and comfortable, and compliments his skin very well.
Chacha shook the bag in her hand and said, “I’ll treat you to a late-night snack.”
“I see things went smoothly.” Jiao Yushi smiled slightly and let her inside.
Chacha went in, took off her shoes and put on slippers. Jiao Yushi took the bag from her and led her to the dining table, where they sat down facing each other.
It’s especially natural since Chacha was already familiar with the place as she’d been there so many times.
Chacha said, “Thank you for today, I owe you a favor.”
Actually, thinking about it, she owes him a lot. Hmm, she’d just pretend to have forgotten. It’s hard to repay favors.
“It’s fine, you can always ask me for help.”
Jiao Yushi said this very seriously.
Chacha had always been sensitive to people’s expressions and tone of voice, therefore, she was puzzled. In the past, Jiao Yushi’s interest was always dispensable, a feeling that could be discarded casually, but now it was so genuine.
Chacha asked, “Why?”
Jiao Yushi looked straight at her, slowly hooked the corners of his mouth, and bent the corners of his eyes. The smile was obviously shallow, but it carried a hint of joy. In addition to being happy, there’s another particularly strange and subtle feeling. Looking at it, Chacha felt unsure and a feeling she couldn’t explain sprouted in her heart.
She rubbed her nose to shake off this strange feeling, all the while knowing that he was acting like this because he didn’t want to give a reason.
Since he didn’t want to talk, it was useless to ask, and it would be a waste of time to keep asking, so it was better to just ignore the topic.
“Right, can you play the piano for me?” Chacha suddenly made a request.
Jiao Yushi looked at the piano, then at the food, and asked, “Are you really here to treat me to a late-night snack?”
Chacha reasoned, “Isn’t it better to play the piano first and eat something after expelling some energy?”
Jiao Yushi was hit in the heart by her shamelessness. For the sake of her cuteness, he temporarily abandoned the snack and went to play the piano for her.
“What do you want to hear?” Jiao Yushi sat down in front of the musical instrument and turned slightly to look at Chen Cha.
She looked at his tall and lean appearance, coupled with the fact that he was still young, no matter how indifferent his face was, he was still full of youthful energy and gave off a fresh vibe.
Chacha said, “I suddenly don’t want to listen to the piano anymore, please sing for me.”
