Chapter 186 If you can produce the card, I'll trade with you!
The man only intended to scare Jiang Chengcheng; who would have thought she would actually do it?
"Ahem! If you know what's good for you, give me back my car keys, and I'll be magnanimous and let you off the hook!" The man coughed lightly to cover up his guilty conscience.
"Heh, no need. If you're not satisfied, we can ask the front desk to check the security footage. I remember I stopped you and said you took the wrong card. What did you say? You didn't take the wrong one. If your memory isn't so good, we can check it." Jiang Chengcheng saw the man's extremely hypocritical appearance and was too lazy to continue the pretense.
"What! This! Then I must have remembered it wrong. I was in such a hurry when I bumped into it that I took the wrong thing. Can't I just take it back now?" The man's expression changed instantly when he heard that there was surveillance footage, and then he tried to argue again.
"Really? There were so many people around, how could you prove that the card I picked up was yours? No matter what, you just thought my card had a higher chance of winning, and after you snatched it and saw that the original card had won, you wanted to switch it back! There's no such thing as a free lunch." Jiang Chengcheng scoffed at the man's ridiculous behavior and exposed his ugly face.
"You! What proof do you have! I just accidentally took the wrong thing from you, and now you're refusing to give it back! How can you be like this! Good heavens! How can there be such a person? Isn't this bullying an honest person? I'm not good with words and can't argue with you, is that my fault? Heaven can bear witness! I swear I really just took the wrong thing! Oh dear!" Seeing that he couldn't win the argument with Jiang Chengcheng, the man turned around and winked at his wife behind him, and the woman instantly realized what he meant.
"Good heavens! This is bullying us poor people! We have no connections or background! We finally won the lottery and this bad luck happens again! Isn't this forcing us? I really don't want to live anymore! I was hoping that if my child got a terminal illness, I could sell this car and get by, but now my child can't survive, and I don't want to live anymore either! Miss, please have mercy on us poor people, for the sake of your child!"
The woman received a hint, and the couple collapsed to their knees at the shop entrance, wailing as if they were the real victims.
Some uninformed bystanders were also misled by the two actors' brilliant performances, including some self-righteous individuals.
"Is it really that bad? It seems so unbelievable."
"The whole family is crying like this, it can't be fake, right?"
"These girls don't seem to be short of money, so why should we make trouble for them?"
"They look quite pitiful, maybe we should just let it go."
"No? Don't you guys have brains? You believe everything she says?"
As everyone was discussing the matter, a young girl, seemingly unable to stand by and watch, stepped out from the crowd.
"That's enough! Judging from your appearance and attire, you should be college students. How can you be so heartless! Your uncle and aunt are already in such a miserable state, and you still want to bully them! It's just a car, and besides, it originally belonged to them. You're really disgracing college students!" The girl spoke righteously, her expression like that of a messenger of justice, accusing Jiang Chengcheng and her friends of their behavior.
"Yes! Young lady! You're right! This card originally belonged to us. Ladies, please don't bully honest people like us... My child really can hold on, please have mercy!"
"Yes! Ladies, please help me!"
Seeing that there were actually people speaking up for them, the couple performed even more enthusiastically, kowtowing repeatedly to Jiang Chengcheng and the others. Some people on the sidelines even started recording videos.
Upon hearing this person's outrageous remarks, Jiang Chengcheng and the others exchanged glances, speechless. Liu Xixi, in particular, with her fiery temper, was so enraged that she launched into a tirade.
"Who are you, sis? Do you know what we're talking about here? Are you just giving orders? Do you live by the sea? Why are you so nosy? You're telling us we're embarrassing college students. We have no sympathy. We sympathize with them, but who sympathizes with Chengcheng for twisting her ankle when he hit her?"
It's just a car, isn't it? We have money, but what does having money have to do with whether we donate or not! Just because we have money doesn't mean we deserve to be sucked up! Let me tell you, I'm not short of money! But even if I smash this car today, I absolutely won't give it to those two! Understand?
If you're so compassionate, why don't you sell your RV and donate it to them?
Oh, I see! You're just all talk, Chengcheng! If it really happened to you, you'd run faster than anyone else! Don't you have any self-awareness about who's disgracing college students?
"If you can't speak properly, get out of here! Don't get in my way! You unlucky thing!" Liu Xixi's fighting power was as fierce as ever, making the saintly white lotus next to her so angry that her face turned red and her neck thickened, but she couldn't say a word.
Just as the group was at an impasse, Qin Ling's voice came from the shop entrance. With such a commotion outside, the receptionist had come looking for him.
"What's wrong?" Qin Ling asked, looking puzzled, upon seeing Jiang Chengcheng and the others.
When Jiang Chengcheng saw Qin Ling, she told him the whole story, leaving Qin Ling speechless.
What kind of mess is this! A cheap little car, and it managed to attract this piece of junk!
Porsche 911: ...I have a curse in my mouth, but I don't know if I should say it!
"Do you need my help?" Qin Ling asked, glancing at Jiang Chengcheng.
“It’s no big deal, I can handle it myself.” Jiang Chengcheng shook her head, then turned to the couple and said.
"You say you took the wrong card and want to exchange it for another one, right? Fine! I agree. Bring me that gold card from before, and I'll assume you took the wrong one and exchange it with you." Jiang Chengcheng looked at the water cups in the couple's hands, which were the same as Liu Xixi's, and was certain that the couple had already redeemed the card.
The couple breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the first half of Jiang Chengcheng's sentence. But before they could fully exhale, they heard the second half of her sentence.
"This...this! Okay!" The man gritted his teeth and finally agreed to Jiang Chengcheng's request. He scrambled to the front desk, his expression a mixture of panic and impatience.
"This is the water bottle I won before! I'm not redeeming it, give me back my gold card!" The man slammed the water bottle down in front of the counter, his eyes full of threat, as if to say, "Try not giving it back to me!"
"Um... I'm sorry, sir, but we don't allow the cards that have already been redeemed to be withdrawn. And unfortunately, a cleaning and recycling staff member just took them away for destruction." The receptionist, despite the man's somewhat intimidating gaze, still carefully stated the facts.
"What?! How could you destroy the cards without our permission?!" Upon hearing this, the man became enraged, leaning forward as if his fist was about to strike the front desk!
