Chapter 9: Return of Compensation Funds to the Original Owner

Chen Jianye looked calm and remained silent.

He is in no hurry.

Whoever is in a hurry speaks first.

"Jianye, I heard someone say that you want to call the police to report Shazhu. Is that true?"

Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but ask.

Sha Zhu pricked up his ears; this was what he was most concerned about.

"That's what happened."

Chen Jianye nodded in acknowledgment.

There is nothing wrong with the rumors you spread yourself.

"Jianye, your father is gone. It was Shazhu who opened a kitchen for your family. You can't repay kindness with hatred."

Yi Zhonghai moved people with emotion.

"Sha Zhu opened a kitchen for my Chen family, and my Chen family paid for it. It was just a deal."

"The family that runs his kitchen must have at least fifty if not one hundred. He works for money, so what kind of affection can he have?"

"Look at my head. I was almost beaten to death by a stupid pillar. Shouldn't I have called the police?"

Chen Jianye pointed at his head which was wrapped in gauze.

The dark red blood looks shocking.

"That being said, the reason why Shazhu fought with you was because you were slashing at me with a knife."

"Shazhu made a mistake in a hurry, you also have some responsibility."

Yi Zhonghai said.

"hehe."

Chen Jianye sneered, stood up, walked to the stove, and pulled out a kitchen knife.

He walked towards the table, knife in hand.

"Jianye, don't be impulsive. If you have something to say, please speak slowly."

"Jianye, put the knife down first. Your uncle and I support you."

"Chen Jianye, what are you doing? Why are you still here?"

Yi Zhonghai and his companions were frightened and stood up and left the table.

If it weren't for face, they would all run away from the Chen family.

Seeing that several people looked like frightened birds, Chen Jianye curled up his lips into a sneer and threw the kitchen knife in his hand.

There was a clang.

The kitchen knife fell on the dining table.

Seeing that Chen Jianye had no intention of attacking anyone, Yi Zhonghai and others slowly returned to sit at the dining table.

"Yi Zhonghai, why should I kill you? Don't you know?"

"You withheld my father's pension, made my mother host a big feast during the famine, and you turned a blind eye to people stealing from my house."

"Go ahead and call the police. I just need an opportunity to expose someone's actions to the public."

Chen Jianye sat back at the dining table and coughed a few times.

He had just come out of the hospital and was still in a very weak condition, so he had to pretend to be more convincing.

"Jianye, you misunderstood me."

"I can swear to God that I have never done anything unfair to your Chen family."

Yi Zhonghai tried his best to defend himself.

If Chen Jianye were to tell those things, his image in the compound would be ruined.

"Okay, it's all in the past."

"If everything is ok, you guys can go back. I still have some work to do."

Chen Jianye evicts the guest.

He picked up the kitchen knife on the dining table.

He held the knife, Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui were trembling, and they subconsciously leaned back to distance themselves from Chen Jianye.

"Jianye, sending Shazhu to jail won't do you any good."

"He fought you to save me. I can't just watch him go to jail. How about I ask him to compensate you?"

Yi Zhonghai also leaned back and spoke carefully.

"You must return my father's pension to me first, and then talk to me."

Chen Jianye said impatiently.

"I was planning to save your father's pension for your mother's funeral."

Yi Zhonghai smiled apologetically.

"I am the son of the Chen family. You don't have to worry about the funeral."

Chen Jianye sneered.

"You went to the hospital last night, and I paid fifty dollars for your medical expenses."

Yi Zhonghai said again.

I want to reduce my losses.

"That was Sha Zhu's money. He almost beat me to death. He should pay for the medical expenses. It's none of your business."

"Will you give me money?"

Chen Jianye stood up, holding the knife.

Although there was a dining table between him and Yi Zhonghai, after he stood up, he could hit Yi Zhonghai's head with a knife.

"Old Yi, Old Chen's pension originally belonged to Chen Jianye. Why are you holding on to it?"

"That's right. Yesterday you told us that you saved the money for Jianye. Now they want it. Can't you just give it to them?"

Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui all tried to persuade them.

The two of them trembled inwardly.

In their eyes, Chen Jianye seemed like a madman.

They were very close to Chen Jianye, and if they were stabbed, they would be in real trouble.

"I'll give it to you. I didn't say I won't give it to you."

"I'll get it right away."

Yi Zhonghai had no reason to refuse, so he agreed decisively.

Get up and leave Chen's house.

Chen Jianye sat down, his eyes passing from Liu Haizhong to Yan Fugui: "Don't worry, gentlemen, every wrong has its perpetrator, and I won't drag you into this if it's none of your business."

"Jianye is a sensible person."

"Ever since I was little, I've seen you as a reasonable person."

Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui felt a little relieved and tried their best to appease them with free words.

Chen Jianye sneered in his heart.

Both the Liu family and the Yan family took items from the Chen family.

What they are talking about now has nothing to do with them, but when they talk about the lost items of the Chen family later, they will be involved.

Don't be in a hurry, take them one by one.

After a while, Yi Zhonghai returned to Chen's house, took out a thick package wrapped in brown paper from his pocket and put it on the table.

"Here is your father's pension. I haven't touched a single cent of it since I got it out of the factory."

Yi Zhonghai said frankly.

Chen Jianye opened the kraft paper, checked it, and put it in his pocket after confirming that it was correct.

"Jianye, I can ask Shazhu to apologize to you for injuring you."

"We are all residents of the same compound. We will see each other sooner or later. There is no need to make things awkward."

Yi Zhonghai persuaded.

"Shazhu injured me, the medical expenses are two hundred, and the compensation is five hundred."

"If you can come up with the money, this matter will be written off. If you don't have the money, I will call the police now."

Chen Jianye said indifferently.

"Chen Jianye, I think you are deliberately making things difficult for me!"

Anger appeared on Shazhu's face.

Two hundred plus five hundred, that’s seven hundred.

It would take him two years to earn it back even if he didn't eat or drink.

What's more, he takes care of his younger sister He Yushui and occasionally gives Sister Qin little surprises. Now he only has more than 100 yuan in savings.

Seven hundred dollars wouldn't be enough even if I sold him.

Yi Zhonghai raised his hand and signaled Sha Zhu not to speak.

He looked directly at Chen Jianye: "Jianye, I just gave you 300 yuan, and you're asking for more. Isn't that inappropriate?"

"Yi Zhonghai, the three hundred yuan is the pension given to my father by the factory. It has nothing to do with you. You think it's your money."

Chen Jianye sneered and turned to look at Sha Zhu: "The price I offer is very fair. If you feel it is not suitable, you can go to jail."

After saying that, he placed the information he brought from the hospital on the table.

If you want people to spend money, you have to give them something to show.

"The blow that Shazhu gave me, even if it is cured now, it will not be stable in the future. I might die one day."

"Even if I survive, it's normal for my brain to cramp and my body to lose control in the future."

"I want a few hundred dollars from him. Is that a lot?"

Chen Jianye growled and held the knife tighter.

"Not much, not much."

Liu Haizhong didn't even look at the information. Seeing that Chen Jianye was showing signs of turning evil, he quickly spoke.

"Shazhu was too ruthless. He really shouldn't have done that. He ruined Jianye's life."

"It will be troublesome to find a wife in the future. I think a few hundred yuan in compensation is reasonable."

Yan Fugui also said hurriedly.

Yi Zhonghai turned his head and looked at Sha Zhu.

Seven hundred dollars.

He knew that Sha Zhu would definitely not be able to take it out.

He could indeed take it out, but seven hundred dollars was not a small sum.

If Sha Zhu doesn't bring something out, Yi Zhonghai will be in trouble.
