Chapter 18: The Little Brother-in-Law's Fury!
"Hey, why are you here?"
When Han Lixin saw Han Xinyan, he was a bit taken aback.
"If I hadn't come, how would you have gotten out of the detention room? You've got some guts now! You dare get into a fight! If this leaves a mark on your record, how are you going to live and work in the future? If Lili finds out, how will you even get married?"
Han Xinyan immediately scolded him.
Though she was scolding him, her heart ached for him.
"We won't get married then! I'll just live my life as a bachelor!" Han Lixin muttered stubbornly.
"That's nonsense! Even if you don't care about yourself, you should think about Mom and Dad! If they find out, they'll make a scene!"
Han Xinyan glared at Han Lixin in frustration.
Han Lixin didn't say anything, just turned his face and shrugged.
After both of them calmed down, Han Xinyan finally asked,
"Tell me, why did you fight? Didn't I always tell you to think twice before acting? How come you didn't listen to anything I said?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Han Lixin suddenly became agitated.
"He mocked me, fine, but he mocked you too! He said he knows a lot of big bosses and could set you up to be a hostess! I went easy on him!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it.
Because after hearing his words, Han Xinyan's eyes instantly turned red.
She was deeply moved by her brother's defense of her.
But Han Lixin clearly misunderstood Han Xinyan's emotional reaction and became flustered,
"Sis, you..."
Just as he was about to explain, his peripheral vision caught sight of Shen Fei, who was coming over.
His expression immediately changed to one of hatred as he glared at Shen Fei.
If it weren't for that bastard, how would his sister have ended up like this?
Although his sister never said anything, he had seen the bruises on her body a few times. It was clear that it was from domestic abuse by that bastard!
"Why are you here? Came to watch me suffer? Get lost, I don't want to see you!"
"I'll give you one minute to disappear from my sight, or I'll kill you!"
Han Lixin said fiercely, looking like he was about to punch Shen Fei.
Han Xinyan immediately stepped in to stop him,
"Enough! You're being impulsive again! What, you haven't had enough time in the detention room?"
This was a police station!
Before the fist could even land, they could be arrested right there!
"Sis, don't stop me! I'll kill this bastard! If you're okay, then I'll accept whatever happens!"
Han Lixin glared at Shen Fei with burning hatred.
Seeing the hatred in Han Lixin's eyes, Shen Fei felt a pang in his heart.
"I saw your sister was in a panic, so I came over! Now that everything's fine, it's all good."
"Stop your fake sympathy! I don't need it! Get lost!"
Han Lixin growled, his neck bulging with anger.
Then he turned to his sister with confusion,
"Sis, why'd you bring this scum here?"
"I... I happened to run into him, and in my panic, I told him about this... But if it weren't for Shen Fei, you would still be in the detention room!"
Han Xinyan quickly explained.
After hearing this, Han Lixin furrowed his brows.
"Sis, what do you mean by that? He saved me?"
"Yes! The injured party's family wanted 200,000 to settle! Shen Fei gave them the money!"
Even though Han Xinyan wanted to sever ties with Shen Fei, she couldn't deny that Shen Fei did help her and her brother.
"Sis, are you kidding me? This scum saved me?"
Han Lixin's emotions were even more stirred up.
He couldn't believe that this bastard actually had 200,000!
And even if Shen Fei had that money, wouldn't he have gone to the casino instead of coming here?
"He said he got lucky this morning and found something worth 500,000!"
Han Xinyan explained.
Upon hearing this, Han Lixin completely lost it.
He had no idea whether the lucky find story was true, or whether Shen Fei was being honest about what he said!
But no matter what, he couldn't accept that he had been saved by Shen Fei.
Thinking this, Han Lixin suddenly walked up to a police officer,
"Call them back! Get me back in the detention room! I won't settle with that injured party! And help me find them, get that 200,000 back! Damn, I don't want to be out here!"
The police officer stopped him, a bit confused,
"Are you drunk? The detention room isn't a place you can just walk in and out of! Besides, the two sides have already agreed to settle, and you're showing contempt for us!"
This guy was really out of his mind! He got out, but now wanted to go back in!
"This is the first time I've heard of such a ridiculous request!"
"Han Lixin, are you crazy? What are you talking about? Let's go home!"
Han Xinyan grabbed Han Lixin forcefully and started walking out.
But Han Lixin was still not giving up. As he passed by Shen Fei, he yelled,
"That 200,000, consider it a loan from me! After a while, I'll pay you back with interest! Don't think just because you have something on me that you can do whatever you want! If you don't sign in a month, I'll still find someone to kill you!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Fei felt a mix of emotions.
This was all his own doing, so he didn't blame Han Lixin for acting this way.
Standing still, Shen Fei quietly watched Han Xinyan and Han Lixin leave.
It wasn't that he had given up, but he was giving Han Lixin a chance to calm down.
Otherwise, if he got into trouble right after being released from the station, Han Xinyan would only hate him more!
The police officer who had been standing there with Shen Fei shook his head in sympathy.
"Your brother-in-law really is something!"
Shen Fei could only give a bitter smile in response.
The officer patted him on the shoulder to offer comfort and then walked away.
Just as Shen Fei was about to leave, a few voices of conversation reached his ears.
"What, Lao Wan, are you going to buy a house?"
"Yeah! You know, we people from our generation, we save and save just to have our own home. With the housing prices so high, I wouldn't even think of buying a house if I had a choice!"
"True, so where are you thinking of buying?"
"Of course, somewhere with a reasonable price! I think the small luxury homes in the East Suburbs are good! They're opening tomorrow, 8,000 per square meter! The first fifty who make a reservation can get a 5% discount! I'm planning to go take a look tomorrow!"
"…East Suburbs Luxury Homes? Are you sure? That area hasn't been developed yet! There's nothing there! Buying there would be a loss!"
"What can I do? We're eight people in the family, squeezed into a 70-square-meter house. It's so inconvenient! The kids are getting bigger too! It doesn't matter if the area is undeveloped. I just want a home!"
When Shen Fei overheard this conversation, he was instantly stunned.
The next moment, his entire being became excited.
