12: Chapter 12 Provoking Trouble

Shen Yan shook his head and refused the other party.

The Border Collie was still in the hospital for examination and diagnosis, and there were many places where money was needed.

He did not want to kick someone when they were down at this time.

Who knew that the woman was very determined, vowing not to give up until she paid.

"No way, I already decided that whoever helps me find Xiao Bao, I will give them a fifty thousand reward."

"Plus, you helped me save Xiao Bao, so I must give you this reward!"

Just as the two of them were struggling, a large group of people suddenly arrived outside.

"Who is bullying my child? Come out!"

Shen Yan turned his head and saw a few familiar children.

"Wait, I need to go out and handle something first."

The woman was stunned and pointed outside with her finger.

"Are they looking for you?"

Shen Yan nodded and walked out of the pet hospital door.

When that group saw Shen Yan, they immediately bent down to question their children:

"Did he bully you?"

The children immediately nodded.

"That's right! He bullied us!"

After getting the answer, the burly man leading the group immediately stood up straight and walked menacingly toward Shen Yan.

"You bullied my child, you're asking for a beating, aren't you?"

Chen Guangke also rushed out of the hospital and shouted at the other party: "I think it's your kid who deserves a beating!"

The man glared and fiercely shoved Chen Guangke.

"Who the hell are you calling deserving a beating? Do you believe I'll beat you until you're searching for your teeth on the ground?"

Chen Guangke chuckled a few times, his eyes full of mockery.

It was no wonder these children were little brats, with parents who came looking for trouble and threatening others without knowing the truth.

"I'm talking about your kid! Bullying a dog is one thing, but throwing stones at adults too—if the child doesn't know better, do the adults not know better either?"

The other party was clearly not someone who reasoned.

He picked his ear with his pinky finger and waved his hand:

"Don't give me all that nonsense! My son was hit by you guys. Either let me hit back, or pay up!"

Xiao Bao's owner also came out of the pet hospital. She frowned and asked:

"How much money do you want?"

The man made an exorbitant demand:

"You hit my child, so you must compensate for medical expenses, which should be at least five thousand. Plus compensation for emotional distress and missed schooling fees, the total is fifty thousand."

The others also started shouting:

"That's right, you didn't just hit him, you bullied our kids too! Even if our kids weren't hit, you still have to compensate us!"

If people are shameless, they are invincible.

The intention of this group to extort money was already obvious.

Shen Yan silently complained in his heart.

Just as he was planning to have a good 'discussion' with the other party, Xiao Bao's owner spoke.

"Then how do you account for hitting my dog?"

The leading man stuck his head out and frowned:

"What dog?!"

Xiao Bao's owner replied firmly:

"My Xiao Bao! To me, he is also my child. Your child hit my child!"

"He's hospitalized now. The medical fees, missed schooling fees, and the emotional distress caused by kidnapping and selling my son—added up... it's not much, just a hundred thousand!"

Upon hearing this, the other party rolled his eyes and spat on the ground.

"Pah! Isn't it just a dog? If it died, it died. You want money? It would be a good thing if you paid for my kid's rabies vaccine!"

Xiao Bao's owner sneered.

"He is indeed just a dog, but his value already exceeds fifty thousand. As long as I report you to the police for your children destroying someone else's private property, they can be arrested immediately."

Arrest children?

The leading man burst out laughing.

"Fine then, call the police. Let's see who dares to take away my kid?"

Hearing this, Shen Yan immediately took out his phone and dialed the police emergency number.

As soon as the call connected, the leading man suddenly rushed over and knocked his phone away.

"You actually plan to call the police! To hell with you! I'll beat you to death!"

Saying that, the man raised his fist and swung it toward Shen Yan's face.

Shen Yan's eyes turned cold, he dodged sideways, and in return, forcefully pressed down on the man's neck, kicking him hard in the stomach with his knee.

"Ah!"

The man cried out in pain, bent over, and started breaking out in a cold sweat.

"I... I'll kill you!"

Not wanting to lose face in front of so many people, he stood up and continued to attack Shen Yan.

Shen Yan slowly pushed backward, dodging all of his punches.

Besides that, he also picked up the phone that had been knocked to the ground and redialed the police emergency number.

"Hello, police?"

"Someone is attacking me right now, please come over quickly."

The man was completely enraged by his actions. He directly pulled out a fruit knife from his pocket and roared as he charged toward Shen Yan.

"Aaaah!!!"

Seeing this, Shen Yan stood his ground.

When the man was only about half a meter away from him, Shen Yan delivered a flying kick, sending the man tumbling to the ground.

Because the commotion here was too loud, nearby passersby were attracted over.

"Oh my god! Why did it escalate to using a knife?"

"What happened here?"

"Hey? Isn't that Wang Dafa, who often bullies others, lying on the ground?"

"Damn! It really is him! Who hit him? Well done!"

Not long after, the police arrived.

As soon as the man saw the police, he immediately lay back down on the ground, baring his teeth and shouting incoherently.

"Ouch, my back! My leg! My head!"

Chen Guangke cautiously approached Shen Yan and asked in a low voice:

"What do we do? He won't have suffered any serious injuries from your beating, right?"

Chen Guangke certainly didn't sympathize with the other party.

He was just worried about what would happen if they were extorted.

"Don't worry, I had control over my force. I hit spots that were painful but wouldn't cause serious issues."

After hearing this, Chen Guangke nodded in relief.

"That's good!"

The police saw the man stubbornly refusing to get up, so they simply called an ambulance for him and took Shen Yan and Chen Guangke away.

Xiao Bao's owner originally wanted to go with the two of them, but Shen Yan persuaded her to go back.

"Your Xiao Bao is still in the hospital, so don't follow us."

Xiao Bao's owner knew he was right and didn't insist.

She directly asked for their contact information and names.

"Chen Guangke and Chen Guangke, right?"

"Hello, let me introduce myself. My name is Wu Ya! I will contact you after Xiao Bao's condition stabilizes!"...

At the police station, Shen Yan explained the entire sequence of events to the police.

After they understood the situation, they did not make things difficult for them and directly sent the beaten father and son to the hospital for injury assessment.

"Alright, the examination report is out. Neither of them has any injuries. You can leave now."

Hearing the police's words, Chen Guangke looked surprised.

"Really? We can leave now?!"

The police officer smiled: "What? You don't want to leave? Fine, I'll process a seven-day deluxe package for you right now!"
