Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Chu Liyuan and Jian Dan arrived at the car dealership together… Jian Dan handed the collection slip to the receptionist. “We want to collect the car.”

The receptionist checked and realized that the car had just been sent over yesterday morning and maintenance work had not yet been completed. “I’m sorry, your car was just sent over yesterday. It’s not ready yet.” the receptionist said politely.

“It’s alright, we want to collect it now,” Jian Dan said immediately.

“But…” The receptionist said awkwardly.

“We just want to collect the car early. Is there a problem? Besides, it’s only here for maintenance, not repairs,” Jian Dan said.

“Please wait a moment!” The receptionist called the person-in-charge… A few minutes later, a man who looked to be in his thirties emerged… “They want to collect the car early.” The receptionist gave a brief explanation.

“Hello, I’m the manager here. 1 understand you wish to collect the car early?” The man approached Chu Liyuan and asked.

Chu Liyuan did not say anything and only nodded.

“But the maintenance work on your car hasn’t been completed yet,” the manager explained.

“Isn’t maintenance usually done in an hour or two? Why is it still not completed after so long?” Jian Dan said.

“We had a sudden influx of cars requiring maintenance, so it’s taking a longer time,” the manager continued to explain.

“Oh! That’s alright. We’re in a hurry to use the car now. We’ll send it for maintenance next time.” Jian Dan did not give the manager a way out.

“Erm…” The manager was a little hesitant.

“Is there a reason why you don’t want us to collect the car now? Is it because there’s something wrong with the car?” Jian Dan asked knowingly.

“Well…” The manager was clearly flustered and at a loss.

Yesterday, his younger brother had taken a Maybach out for a spin without telling him… He had done this before—he would take cars for joyrides to show off and target unwitting victims in “crash for cash” scams. Yesterday, his bum of a brother had secretly taken the Maybach for a joyride. Most importantly, it had been trashed during the joyride.

He had intended to repair the car as soon as possible before sending it back. Previously, they had always been the one to send the car back after maintenance.

Unexpectedly, this time… No matter how efficient he was, it was impossible to repair a car that had been trashed to such a state overnight, okay?

Under Jian Dan’s insistence, he could only bring the two of them to the workshop. Chu Liyuan looked at the trashed car and frowned deeply. A cold glint flashed across his eyes.

“Wow! What happened? How did the car become like this?” Jian Dan deliberately raised her voice.

“I’m really sorry. We will take full responsibility,” the manager promised, maintaining a 60-degree bow.

The manager’s younger brother was also working there. When he heard the news, he immediately came over and the first thing he saw was Jian Dan. “You… You… You…” He stuttered and was unable to say anything beyond the word “You” after a very long time.

Jian Dan looked at the manager’s younger brother as if she was watching a good show…

“So you… you tricked me?” The manager’s younger brother immediately understood that he had been tricked. No wonder she paid so readily yesterday. It turned out that…

“Trick you? Have we met before?” Jian Dan played dumb.

“Yesterday on the street, this car was clearly yours…” the manager’s younger brother pointed at Jian Dan and said fiercely.

“What do you mean? You’d better think twice before you say anything. If the car became like this within the confines of your establishment, it’s just a matter of monetary compensation. However, if it happened outside, monetary compensation won’t cut it. Joyriding is a criminal offense. You might even end up in jail.” Jian Dan reminded.

“You…” Just as the manager’s brother was about to continue, the manager interrupted him. “I’m really very sorry. We’ll take responsibility for it and are willing to offer compensation!” The manager could extrapolate from their conversation that his brother had definitely been played. But even then, what could he do? After all, they were the ones in the wrong in the first place. Of course, he had to do damage control.

“Okay!” Jian Dan was overjoyed when she saw that she had achieved her goal, but maintained her poker face. “4.3 million yuan will do.”

“4.3 million yuan?” Obviously, the manager did not expect Jian Dan to ask for so much. He thought that at most, she wanted to take back the three million yuan that she had been scammed and vent her anger.

“What’s wrong?” Jian Dan had already hacked into the fatty’s bank account last night. Over the years, they had scammed many victims, totaling about 4.3 million yuan after including the three million yuan from her yesterday. Of course, she had to make them cough it all up.

“That’s daylight robbery!” The fatty pointed at Jian Dan and barked loudly.

How could Chu Liyuan allow anyone to bully his lass? He kicked that fatty to the ground…

That fatty weighed at least 200 catties, but Chu Liyuan knocked him down with just a kick. He was so awesome!

“Call the police!” Chu Liyuan couldn’t be bothered to waste his breath on them.

“I’ll pay, I’ll pay,” the manager hurriedly said. He had no choice but to capitulate, given the circumstances! He had to swallow the bitter pill.

He immediately transferred 4.3 million yuan to Jian Dan…

Jian Dan looked at the notification message on her cell phone—it showed that 4.3 million yuan had been transferred to her account. The corners of her lips curled up… Before leaving, she left the parting words, “Oh right, since you’re taking responsibility, I’ll leave the repairs of the car to you. Send it back once you’re done with it, understand?” Jian Dan was really lionhearted.

The fatty was about to flare up again when the manager stopped him.

When they returned to their car, Chu Liyuan kept looking at Jian Dan. He had more or less guessed it—it was obvious that this lass was the one who had trashed the car.

Jian Dan looked at Chu Liyuan and burst out laughing. “Well, it’s like this. Yesterday, I was taking a stroll around the city after window shopping and chanced upon a traffic accident involving your car and the motorcycle of a food delivery rider. I took a closer look and realized that it wasn’t you, but that fatty just now. Coincidentally, 1 know that food delivery rider; he’s Mengjiao’s brother, Xia Zijie. After I found out what happened, I figured out that fatty was a serial scammer, so… I wanted to teach him a lesson!”

“So you trashed your own car?” Chu Liyuan interrupted.

“Hehe!” Jian Dan was instantly amused. “Yes! I was indeed the one who trashed the car. You happened to be taking me out today, so I… Hehe.” Jian Dan could not hide the glee in her eyes.

Chu Liyuan gained a new understanding of Jian Dan again. He did not expect his lass to be so “cunning” besides being playful.

Chu Liyuan stroked Jian Dan’s head dotingly. “Fasten your seatbelt. Let’s set off.”

“Yes, Sir!” Jian Dan saluted Chu Liyuan..
