Chapter 973 – Xiaoxiao's Idea
"What did you think? This is Zippo, an international brand! Have you ever seen it on TV? This brand of lighter is used in movies! "The man raised his lighter and shouted.
"But, isn't this lighter fine? It doesn't have to be five thousand, right … "Chen Xi's mother asked carefully, her eyes filled with shock.
"Fine? How am I supposed to use it if the paint is peeling off? I'm a high-class person, living in the upper class, how can I take a lighter that's peeling off? " The man hmphed coldly, slamming the lighter on the table beside the mother and daughter. "If you can use it, I'll give it to you. Hurry up and give me five thousand, don't bullshit!"
There weren't many customers in the restaurant at this time, because it was already one in the afternoon when Lin Yi saw Xiaoxiao. It was just past lunch time.
But even if there were customers here, who would care about this?
The waiter of the beef noodle shop, although he didn't like the man and sympathized with Chen Xi and her mother, he also knew that disputes between customers had nothing to do with their shop. At this time, the best choice was not to interfere!
Xiaoxiao frowned, thinking that this man was really despicable. She had always sympathized with Chen Xi. She lost her mother when she was young, and now Chen Xi was about to lose her mother as well. This made Xiaoxiao feel like they were in the same boat, and she couldn't help but like Chen Xi. Now that this man was making things difficult for the mother and daughter, she was furious!
And so Xiaoxiao stood up, and before the man could react, she grabbed the lighter from the table. "Let me see, what kind of lighter is worth five thousand?"
"Who are you? Mind your own business! " The man frowned, not expecting someone to suddenly appear out of nowhere. But seeing how fashionable Xiaoxiao was, he didn't dare mess with her. After all, he only picked on people who were easy to bully.
"As far as I know, zippo is an international brand, but the price ranges from high to low. The cheapest one is only a few dozen kuai, and yours …" Xiaoxiao picked up the man's lighter and looked at it before saying faintly, "This is a zippc, not a zippo. It's a knockoff, not even worth a few dozen kuai!"
"Nonsense!" The man's face reddened at Xiaoxiao's words, and his embarrassment turned into anger as he reached out to grab the lighter from Xiaoxiao's hand.
But who was Xiaoxiao? He was the weakest of the Big Four Young Thugs! How could she be afraid of someone who dared to set off firecrackers on Lin Yi's butt? He casually lit the lighter. As a result, when the man grabbed it, the lighter burned his hand and ignited his sleeve!
"Ah! F * ck me! " The man started waving his arms around, finally putting out the fire on his sleeves. His eyes were filled with rage, and he'd lost his mind. He raised his hand, wanting to slap Xiaoxiao!
At this moment, Xiaoxiao jumped in fright! But what she was thinking was, could Lin Yi save her?
Lin Yi, naturally, wouldn't let Xiaoxiao get bullied. The next moment, the man's hand was grabbed tightly by Lin Yi.
"You … Let go of me!" The man was a bit scared after being grabbed by Lin Yi. The pain in his hand told him that Lin Yi wasn't someone to be messed with! He was someone who bullied the weak and feared the strong, and it was only because Chen Xi was dressed like a country bumpkin that he thought she was easy to bully.
But now, Lin Yi clearly wasn't someone to be messed with. He was a little scared. "Do you know who I am? I'm very familiar with Guang Bro in the North district, don't mind your own business … "
"Who's Guang Bro?" Lin Yi paused.
"Zou Ruoguang, Guang Bro!" The man thought that Lin Yi didn't know, so he added, "He's the boss of the North district!"
"Zou Ruoguang, why does that name sound so familiar?" Xiaoxiao interrupted.
The moment Lin Yi made his move, Xiaoxiao felt a bit of sweetness in her heart. Lin Yi still cared about her, he still cared about her! His attitude towards her was a bit cold, but if something really happened to her, he wouldn't just stand by and watch!
"Oh, just an idiot," Lin Yi said, "He has a retarded brother called Zou Ruoming, you know him."
"Oh, Zou Ruoming, I thought he knew someone strong!" Xiaoxiao let out a breath of relief when she heard that it was Zou Ruoming's brother.
"Ugh …" The man didn't know what to do- he thought that he'd bring up someone strong and Lin Yi would give in, but he didn't expect Lin Yi to know someone!
"Who else do you know? If you don't know anyone, then you can leave, "Lin Yi let go of the man's hand, not caring about him at all.
The man hesitated for a moment before running out of the beef noodle shop. Evidently, he felt that he was no match for Lin Yi, and it was best to run away!
"Thank you guys so much!" Chen Xi's mother thought that she'd have to pay a huge debt before she died, and in her moment of despair, someone stood up for her and her daughter! Luckily, these two were knowledgeable and saw through the man's scam, and they even managed to scare him away. Otherwise, the mother and daughter wouldn't know what to do!
"Thank you, big bro, big sis …" Chen Xi wiped her tears and bowed politely to Lin Yi and Xiaoxiao.
"It's nothing!" Xiaoxiao said, "Just be careful next time."
"Okay!" Chen Xi nodded gratefully, but when she saw the broken beef noodles on the floor, she couldn't help but feel pained. She turned to her mother, "Mom, can we get another bowl?"
"No, we've already tasted it, we know how it tastes, don't waste money!" Chen Xi's mother, naturally, didn't want her daughter to spend more money.
"I haven't touched this bowl yet, I can't eat it anymore- you guys can have it!" Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes and gave her bowl of beef noodles to the mother and daughter.
"That … That's not okay!" Chen Xi's mother paused and quickly rejected.
"I want to share a bowl with him, aunty, didn't you hear it?" Xiaoxiao whispered in Chen Xi's mother's ear, "Just do me a favor, okay?"
"I …" Chen Xi's mother did hear that Xiaoxiao wanted to share a bowl of noodles with Lin Yi, so she didn't suspect anything when Xiaoxiao said this, but … She couldn't say yes, and she couldn't say no either!
If she said yes, she'd be taking something from them for free, but if she didn't say yes, they'd already asked for a favor, and they'd just done her a huge favor. How could she say no?
