CHAPTER 40: CHAPTER 40: THE BRAT (PART 2)

"Tsk, Mrs. Li, clearly it’s your son’s fault, don’t make things difficult for others."

"Exactly, the young girl was knocked over by your son for no reason, and she hasn’t even asked you for compensation!"

"Sigh, Mrs. Li, your son’s lying mouth needs a proper education, otherwise what will happen in the future?"

"Exactly, if the child isn’t taught, there will come a time when he suffers!"

"Spoiling a child is not a good thing, she’ll regret it later..."

...

In no time, acquaintances and strangers alike were criticizing the mother and son.

The woman heard the criticism from those around her and did not dare to fight back because there were people she couldn’t afford to offend among them.

The woman glared at Yang Lin, turned around, and left with her son.

"Tsk, not even an apology, that person is really without class!"

"You don’t know, Mrs. Li went through a lot to have a boy, maybe that’s why she spoils him now that she finally had one, sigh..."

Some people understood after hearing this, while others still did not agree.

"Regardless of gender, they’re all one’s treasured children, what era are we in now, still favoring men over women, tsk!"

The person speaking held a high status in Sea City, and someone recognized her; indeed, she only had one daughter.

The others fell silent, turned, and left, thinking it would be better not to speak at all lest they unintentionally offend someone.

No one coming to Four Directions Restaurant could be offended.

Lin Xiaoyan had already met up with Jing Yi, and Jing Yi didn’t see Yang Lin, so he asked.

Lin Xiaoyan explained what had just happened to Jing Yi while making a call to the police.

After hearing this, Jing Yi looked at a nearby waiter, "Who are that mother and son inside, to be so rampant?"

The waiter immediately told Jing Yi the identities of the mother and son.

"Hello, I’d like to report to the police..."

The nearby waiter: ??? Miss, you’re really calling the police!

Jing Yi: What needs the police involved?

Yang Lin, who had just walked over: ???

The Four Directions Restaurant manager paused for a moment, then quickly ran over, "Miss, miss, it’s resolved, no need to call the police!"

Yang Lin also walked over and nodded, "Xiao Yan, it’s been resolved."

Lin Xiaoyan saw Yang Lin, breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, nodded to him, and then shook her head.

"Not this matter." She subtly glanced at Yang Lin.

Yang Lin paused for a moment, saw Lin Xiaoyan giving him a look, and immediately understood.

Jing Yi saw Yang Lin not speaking and looked at him with a puzzled expression.

Yang Lin walked over and signaled to him with a look.

"Yes, I’m Lin Xiaoyan..." Lin Xiaoyan continued talking to the police station.

The nearby manager was anxious and wanted Yang Lin to help persuade her; today, Four Directions Restaurant would compensate the young lady...

Yang Lin waved his hand, telling him, "Don’t worry, she’s reporting something else, nothing to do with Four Directions Restaurant."

"..." The manager of Four Directions Restaurant swallowed back his words.

At this moment Jing Yi was also watching Lin Xiaoyan with a thrilled expression, had her superpower activated again?

"... but the situation this time is a bit special, you... better come in plain clothes." Lin Xiaoyan thought for a moment and suggested.

"Okay, I’m at Four Directions Restaurant now, they haven’t left yet..."

After Lin Xiaoyan hung up the phone, she turned around and saw several people watching her with different expressions.

"Doctor Yang, you can go back, I’ll wait here for them."

"Thank you for treating me to dinner today, and thank you, Doctor Yang, for what just happened."

Lin Xiaoyan looked at Yang Lin and Jing Yi, and thanked them both.

"Xiao Lin, are you..."

"Ahem..."

Jing Yi wanted to ask, but Yang Lin immediately interrupted him with a cough.

He gave Jing Yi a warning look, causing Jing Yi to look awkward, realizing that he had been presumptive.

Yang Lin looked at the nearby manager, "You go back to your duties; we’ll wait here for a while."

The manager was in a bind; he had heard about the call to the police, should he pretend he hadn’t?

"We’ll just sit here; could you please bring us some tea?"

Yang Lin noticed the manager’s hesitation and pointed to the seat next to them.

The manager looked and nodded.

"Alright, you three sit, I’ll get some tea for you."

Yang Lin sat down with Lin Xiaoyan, Jing Yi immediately took a seat beside Lin Xiaoyan, asking in a low voice what happened.

Lin Xiaoyan thought about the scene she had "seen" earlier and felt a bit troubled.

Yang Lin sensed Lin Xiaoyan’s dilemma and asked quietly what was wrong.

Lin Xiaoyan thought for a while, then shared what she had "seen" and asked the two of them, how should such things be handled?

After hearing Lin Xiaoyan’s account, Jing Yi was furious, "I say, we shouldn’t waste police resources, such an arrogant family should be stabbed dead!"

"People like them are asking for it, thinking they’re special and looking down on others; they’re practically courting death!

At least they ran into someone who wasn’t afraid of death; good riddance, so they won’t harm others in the future!"

"Such bratty kids, they won’t be of any use to society when they grow up! And who knows, they might become a menace..."

Jing Yi held immense disdain for the family Lin Xiaoyan mentioned!

How outrageous the comments from that mother were!

Whose children aren’t treasured? Is theirs the only jewel, while others are just livestock? Ridiculous!!!

Listening to Jing Yi, and thinking of that mother and son earlier, Lin Xiaoyan sighed helplessly.

She didn’t want to save such people either, but...

"Xiao Yan, you’re doing the right thing; it indeed needs reporting!"

Lin Xiaoyan lifted her head, gazing intently at Yang Lin.

"But why save such unreasonable and obnoxious people?"

Yang Lin looked calmly at Lin Xiaoyan, "It’s not about saving them, but about saving the man who’s lost his senses."

Lin Xiaoyan nodded repeatedly, "Right, that’s what I’m thinking; that man is probably the bullied girl’s father, that family is indeed despicable, but the other family being bullied is somewhat innocent.

It’s not worth putting oneself at risk for such people..."

Next to them, Jing Yi slapped the table, "That’s simple, you just wait, I’ll arrange something!"

Yang Lin and Lin Xiaoyan looked at him in confusion.

Jing Yi took out his phone, quickly sending messages and contacting someone.

"Please enjoy the tea, these are complimentary from Four Directions Restaurant, feel free to indulge." The manager of Four Directions Restaurant came over with several staff members carrying snacks and fruits, placing them on the table, along with tea.

The manager respectfully handed over a card, "The young lady was harmed today, it is our Four Directions Restaurant’s negligence.

This card is compensation from us to the young lady, please accept it and forgive our oversight."

Lin Xiaoyan looked at the golden card being offered and hurriedly refused, "No need..."
