You surnamed Zhou, this is the real scammer!

Dressed in a deep blue suit, Zhou Cheng stood tall and straight. In this rural countryside, he was as eye-catching as a bright moon in the dark night.

Everyone was shocked by Zhou Cheng's words. They hadn't expected that Zhou Cheng, who had just been acting like a generous boy and a sweet person, would turn so indifferent in an instant!

The coldness in his voice and his decisiveness in calling the police without leaving any room for negotiation caught everyone by surprise!

"Second Young Master Zhou, what is the meaning of this? Didn't you ask us first and then transfer the money? Why are you calling the police now?"

"That's right, Zhou boy! Your family is so rich; your villa covers four or five acres, and you're worth hundreds of billions. What's wrong with giving us a little money?"

"You only transferred about two million to us in total. For you, that's just the price of a luxury car. Are you really going to call the police?"

"You clearly gave the money yourself, and now you're calling the police?"

The Wretch and his Group all started shouting upon hearing Zhou Cheng's words!

They became especially nervous after seeing Zhou Cheng actually call the police.

At the same time, they all felt as if they had been played.

Listening to them, Zhou Cheng felt his brain couldn't keep up with their logic.

What did they mean by "your family is so rich, what's wrong with giving us some money"? Just because his family was wealthy, did he have to give it to them for nothing?

Where in the world was there such logic! Besides, if these scoundrels had just left after their plan to swindle money from Zhou Wanyu was exposed, he might have let it go.

But they dared to act like hooligans at his doorstep and try to morally kidnap him; well, now they weren't going anywhere!

"I did ask, but I gave that money for your family members' medical treatments. Now, the villagers on both sides are saying that what you told me was all made up, so naturally, I have to verify it."

"Don't worry. As long as I verify that what you said is true, I won't take back a single cent of the money I gave."

Zhou Cheng said softly, a smile playing at the corners of his mouth.

He seemed very kind and gentle, but then, Zhou Cheng's tone shifted!

"But if, after verification, I find out you were all lying to me, then I will definitely pursue fraud charges to the very end! I will absolutely not choose to show any leniency or forgiveness!"

Zhou Cheng's words sounded extremely cold and ruthless. Coupled with his sharp aura, The Wretch and the others were instantly terrified!

Only then did they realize that the reason they were able to get five hundred thousand earlier was entirely because Zhou Cheng had intentionally set a trap and lured them into it!

"What fraud? You gave us that money yourself!" The Wretch shouted at Zhou Cheng.

Then Hu Houwen also shouted:

"Zhou Cheng! You're setting us up! You deliberately asked about our family situations and gave us money just to frame us for fraud so you could call the police and have us arrested!"

Hu Houwen had some brains; he immediately figured out what was happening.

But Zhou Cheng wouldn't admit to that.

"I did intentionally ask about your family situations because I'm back in my hometown and wanted to help the villagers with their difficulties. But I didn't tell you to defraud me!" Zhou Cheng said.

After speaking, Zhou Cheng immediately took out his phone and made a call.

The call was picked up instantly.

"Hello, Second Young Master. Whatever you need, just give the word," Zhang Weida's voice rang out from the phone.

"I'll send you an address. Buy a plane ticket and come here on a business trip right now. There's a case I need you to follow up on!" Zhou Cheng said in a deep voice.

"How many years?" Zhang Weida, who was already familiar with Zhou Cheng's style, asked directly, feeling a faint sense of excitement.

He had been a lawyer for many years. Most of the cases he handled were settled through mediation, where the plaintiff chose to forgive the defendant after receiving some money.

Doing so was certainly reasonable and perhaps even better for the plaintiff.

But to him, it felt as if the defendant had escaped the sanctions of the law, leaving him with an unsettled feeling.

Only after following Zhou Cheng did he find that regardless of whether the other party was good or bad, rich or poor, a corporate executive or an ordinary citizen, Zhou Cheng would ruthlessly choose not to show leniency!

He even emphasized that the heavier the sentence, the better!

Such instructions made him feel refreshed!

This unconstrained, thorough sense of completion was deeply addictive!

People who break the law should be severely punished, not given some bullshit forgiveness!

"Ten years minimum. If a life sentence is possible, then fight for a life sentence! If you can get them life, I'll give you a hundred-thousand-yuan bonus!" Zhou Cheng said.

These scoundrels' crimes weren't limited to this single instance of fraud. Later, Zhou Cheng would arrange for Zhang Weida to investigate all their crimes over the years, including staged accidents, fraud, gambling, and so on.

When the time came, their crimes would be combined for sentencing, and they would push directly for life imprisonment! He could also appropriately exchange for evidence to ensure they received a heavy sentence!

Hearing Zhou Cheng's words, Zhang Weida, who was far away in Shanghai, became incredibly excited.

His income was already high enough, but he hadn't expected to get a bonus for doing what was essentially his job. How could he not be excited?

"Alright, Second Young Master! I'll buy a plane ticket and head over right away!" Zhang Weida replied.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Cheng hung up the phone and then sent the address to Zhang Weida, telling him to hurry over!

Zhou Cheng didn't hide his conversation from anyone.

Thus, the surrounding villagers could clearly hear everything Zhou Cheng said.

One by one, they became alarmed.

Especially The Wretch and his Group; they were completely stunned when they heard Zhou Cheng say the sentence would start at ten years and that he would push for life imprisonment.

They had only been begging, talked back to the Zhou kid a bit, made up a few lies, and taken five hundred thousand from him. How could that lead to a life sentence?

Especially since the five hundred thousand was still in their accounts and they hadn't spent a single cent yet. Not only were they about to be arrested, but they would also have to return all the money?

You can't play like this!

"Zhou Cheng, what do you mean? You gave us this money of your own accord!" The Wretch was incredibly panicked!

"I did give it voluntarily, but on the premise that your family members were actually seriously ill, just as you claimed!" Zhou Cheng replied.

"You... you!!!" The Wretch and the others were speechless!

Realizing things were going south, The Wretch and his Group immediately tried to flee!

But since they were at the entrance of Zhou Cheng's home, how could he possibly let them escape?

Zhou Cheng gave a casual command, and the bodyguards at the door swarmed forward.

They pinned all five of The Wretch's Group to the ground!

"Zhou! You're the one committing fraud! You deliberately set a trap to scam us; we were tricked!"

The Wretch was pressed firmly against the ground by a bodyguard, only able to see Zhou Cheng's leather shoes!

He could only shout fiercely, his voice filled with resentment as if he were the one who had been wronged!

Zhou Cheng listented to this and glanced down at The Wretch on the ground.

"Did you really think the Zhou Family's money was that easy to take?!"

"Zhou! You just said giving us money was to earn merit for your Zhou Family!" Hu Houwen also shouted.

"That's right. Catching you and bringing you to justice, ridding our area of several major nuisances—isn't that earning merit?" Zhou Cheng said casually!

This series of changes and the rapidly shifting situation left the surrounding villagers, who were just there for the drama, completely stunned!
