289: Chapter 289 Fate is Predestined

One-three-zero-four Apartment.

Liu Huis Parents were stunned when they saw Shen Yan and Liu Hui return, bringing Liu Tiao with them.

"You... what is going on?"

Liu Hui frowned, dragging Liu Tiao as she demanded:

"Spit it out. Tell us exactly what happened?"

Ten minutes ago.

Because of Liu Tiao's rebellious words, Liu Hui had dragged him over and given him a good scrubbing.

During the process of disciplining him, Liu Tiao's mask accidentally got pulled off by Liu Hui.

Shen Yan then saw Liu Tiao's true face.

Seeing it was a disaster.

Liu Tiao's identity turned out to be the shop manager who had caused him to be taken to the police station today.

After realizing something was wrong, Shen Yan quickly pulled Liu Hui aside to tell her about how he had just been to the police station with Liu Tiao not long ago.

Before he could even finish, Liu Hui directly dragged both him and Liu Tiao upstairs.

...

"I really didn't do anything. I just simply asked for a repair fee..."

Liu Tiao muttered from the side, casting a pleading look toward Liu Huis Parents.

Although Liu Huis Parents did not know what had happened, they were immediately told that Liu Tiao had caused trouble again.

The two of them cleared their throats and asked Liu Hui gently, "What's wrong? What trouble has your younger cousin caused now?"

Hearing her parents' question, Liu Hui replied irritably: "Stop calling him my younger cousin. I don't have such a disgraceful relative!"

Liu Huis Parents quickly exchanged a look, then said: "Oh dear, you shouldn't say that. No matter what, he is still your cousin."

Liu Hui sneered and remained silent.

Seeing that Liu Hui was unwilling to speak, Liu Huis Parents shifted their gaze to Liu Tiao. They asked him: "Younger cousin, what exactly happened? How did you make your older cousin so angry?"

Liu Tiao glanced nervously at Shen Yan standing beside him and said: "It's really nothing. I just had a small friction... with older cousin's boyfriend..."

Hearing this, Liu Huis Parents' brows instantly furrowed.

"How could you have friction with him? What did you do?"

Liu Tiao scratched his head and replied in a low voice: "I just helped him fix a car, and then... and then we accidentally got into an argument. While arguing, we ended up going to the police station together."

As soon as he finished speaking.

Liu Huis Parents' eyes instantly widened.

"What?!"

"You even ended up at the police station!"

The voices of the two of them were loud enough to penetrate the entire wall.

Liu Tiao rubbed his ears and said with an indifferent attitude: "If we went to the police station, we went. It's not the first time I've been there anyway."

Liu Hui was quite upset by his attitude.

Although downstairs, Shen Yan had only mentioned to her that he was going to sue Liu Tiao, he hadn't explained why he was suing him.

But even if he hadn't said it, Liu Hui could guess that it must be because her cousin had caused some trouble again, offending Shen Yan enough for Shen Yan to decide to sue him.

"Liu Tiao! You're not that young anymore. Can't you be more mature and stop being so childish every day!"

Liu Tiao didn't feel he was childish.

"How am I being childish? You can't side with reason over family!"

Liu Hui: "..."

So you admit you weren't in the right!

She shook her head and asked Liu Tiao: "Tell me the truth first. What exactly happened this afternoon?"

Liu Tiao pursed his lips and secretly glanced at Shen Yan again.

He was afraid that if he made something up, Shen Yan would expose him, so he stammered and refused to explain clearly.

Just as he was trying to gloss over it, Liu Hui suddenly shifted her target and said to Shen Yan: "AYan, you tell us. What exactly happened this afternoon?"

Shen Yan didn't have as many reservations as Liu Tiao.

Hearing Liu Hui's question, he immediately recounted the afternoon's events exactly as they happened to everyone present.

After listening, everyone's expressions were extremely complicated.

Although Liu Hui and her parents knew that Liu Tiao must have caused trouble again, they hadn't expected the trouble he caused this time to be so serious.

Not only did he scam people out of money, but he also incited someone to commit assault.

This could no longer be described simply as causing trouble.

"Liu Tiao, is what you call 'proper business' actually cheating and swindling?"

As soon as the words fell.

Liu Tiao hurriedly retorted: "I wasn't cheating and swindling! That's a High-End Luxury Car Repair Shop!"

As soon as this was said, the atmosphere in the living room instantly became quiet.

Everyone looked at Liu Tiao as if they were looking at an idiot.

Liu Tiao became very uneasy under their gaze, shrinking his neck and mumbling: "It is! Everyone who brings their car to us for repairs is rich. What's wrong with me charging them a little extra?"

Hearing this, Liu Hui took a deep breath and slapped Liu Tiao hard on the back of his head.

"You still don't realize your mistake even now? What you did wasn't called charging a little extra, it was called cheating and swindling!"

"Do you know how much 1.2 million is? You dared to quote that price?"

Liu Tiao replied unconvincingly: "But I spent a lot of money just fixing that one car!"

Shen Yan nodded and interjected, asking: "Then tell me, how much money did you spend repairing that car?"

Liu Tiao opened his mouth but said nothing.

Although Shen Yan's car was the latest series of mercedes-benz, he had connections to get the parts, so the money he spent on the repairs totaled only a little over a hundred thousand yuan.

He knew that if he dared to state that price, everyone in this room would probably beat him up.

Therefore, he kept his mouth shut and remained silent.

Seeing his guilty look, Liu Hui felt her vision go black.

"I'm asking you a question, how much money did you actually spend!"

Liu Tiao shrank his neck again and stayed silent.

Just as Liu Tiao was planning to resist everyone else in the room with silence, Liu Huis mother suddenly slapped him across the face.

Liu Tiao was stunned by the slap. He covered his cheek and looked at his aunt with a bewildered expression.

"Auntie, why did you hit me?"

Liu Huis mother didn't answer his question but glared at him and shouted: "Kneel down!"

Liu Tiao blinked and took two steps back.

"On what grounds?!"

"I am your relative. You should help me, not an outsider!"

Hearing this, Liu Hui laughed in anger.

"Do you think we hit you just to vent AYan's anger?"

Liu Tiao lowered the hand covering his face and shouted loudly: "Isn't that right?!"

"Isn't that guy quite rich? What's wrong with me making him pay a little more? That money isn't a huge amount for him!"

As soon as he finished speaking.

He was kicked by Liu Huis father.

"I was originally thinking of saving you some face in front of outsiders, but now I see there's no need to save any face for you."

"Your parents aren't here. As your uncle, your elder! Today I must discipline you properly!"
