Chapter 16

Song JinXing had left home at a young age and always had a cold relationship with the Song family. After returning to the country, Grandpa Song stubbornly handed over the company to him, which caused dissatisfaction from Song Eldest Uncle and Song Second Uncle. They became even more hostile towards him.

He rarely met with Song Lecheng, only encountering each other at the monthly family banquet. Song Lecheng was a troublemaker who did not hide his disgust and hostility towards him. Song JinXing, in consideration of Grandpa and Grandma\'s feelings, never paid him any attention. The two had never come into direct conflict.

He had also heard about some of Song Lecheng’s bad deeds, but as long as it didn’t happen in front of him or caused real damage to the Song family’s interests, he was willing to let it go for Grandpa and Grandma’s sake.

But obviously, his behavior today had already damaged the Song family\'s brand image and broken the rules he had set.

Not to mention Song Lecheng\'s attitude towards Zhong Ruanxing really annoyed him.

He was annoyed, so his aura became even colder. Stared at by that icy cold gaze, Song Lecheng suddenly thought of the formidable third brother at home. His eyes were also so terrifying, giving people chills.

Hadn\'t he been glared at fiercely by him at the recent family banquet!

Thinking of this, Song Lecheng immediately flew into a rage out of humiliation. He could endure Song JinXing\'s icy stare, but how dare this Zhong Ruanxing also glare at him like this!

In his anger, Song Lecheng raised his hand and tried to fiercely pinch her cold and pretty face.

He wanted to make this cheap woman suffer and beg for mercy under his hand!

Before he could touch the face he had been drooling over, his wrist was suddenly grabbed forcefully by the other party and twisted hard. Song Lecheng screamed painfully on the spot, cursing loudly. He raised his other hand, trying to choke Song JinXing\'s neck. No matter how good one\'s skills, the physical strength between men and women is unequal after all. Song JinXing felt powerless as a woman for the first time.

Zhong You, who had been following her sister, saw that she was being bullied. She screamed and pounced over like a little puppy, using her usual move of clinging to Song JinXing\'s leg. She then bit down hard on Song Lecheng\'s thigh.

Song Lecheng screamed even more miserably. He didn\'t even care about the woman in front of him anymore. He raised his leg, trying to kick Zhong You away. But Zhong You\'s leg-clinging skills were truly superb. She clung tightly to his leg and stubbornly refused to let go. Song Lecheng felt like the flesh on his thigh was about to be bitten off.

He howled in anguish, "Security guards! Tie them up! Tie both of them up for me!"

The scene descended into chaos. Song Lecheng had to let go of Song JinXing\'s neck because of Zhong You\'s bite. Song JinXing took the opportunity to hug Zhong You back to check that she was unharmed before feeling relieved.

Song Lecheng covered his leg in pain, baring his teeth viciously as he raged, "Tie them up for me!"

The security guards naturally recognized Young Master Song Lecheng of the Song family. But being told to tie up a woman and a child was still difficult. Song Lecheng roared, "Don\'t listen huh! Do you believe I\'ll fire all of you!"

Hearing this, the security guards looked at each other hesitantly. Song JinXing said coldly, "Who dares!"

The authority of the superior made everyone present not dare to act rashly.

Only Song Lecheng was still jumping and shouting, "You! Tie them up for me!"

At this moment, Zhong You finally reacted. She wailed loudly in Song JinXing\'s arms. After comforting her for a few sentences, he took out his phone and dialed 110. The panicked store manager who was wiping his sweat understood that he was calling the police. He immediately walked up and pleaded, "Miss, let\'s talk this through. Don\'t call the police. It won\'t be good for anyone if this gets big."

Song Lecheng acted fearless, "Let her call the cops! Biting me like this, we\'re not done today!"

The deputy store manager advised in a low voice, "Young Master, our store has surveillance footage. It was you who...who made the first move. And look what your neck is like, Miss. You have a child with you, clearly at a disadvantage. It won\'t be good for you if the police come."

Song Lecheng was still arrogantly unreasonable, "I\'m afraid of her?"

Song JinXing sneered and dialed the number to call the police.

......

The police arrived quickly. There was surveillance footage in the store. It was obvious who moved first, as the deputy store manager said. Song JinXing and Zhong You\'s subsequent actions could be seen as self-defense. Although Song Lecheng\'s thigh was indeed badly bitten, the biter was only a four-year-old child. She couldn\'t be held criminally responsible, right?

Fortunately, nothing major happened. The police suggested resolving this privately.

Song Lecheng had not expected things to develop this way. He said angrily, "I\'m finding a lawyer!"

Song JinXing also held Zhong You and said coldly, "I do not accept private settlement."

Song Lecheng bared his teeth in pain and glared at him threateningly, "Zhong Ruanxing, you asked for this. I\'m telling you, from now on you can forget about getting by in this industry!"

The policeman strictly stopped him, "What are you trying to do by threatening the victim in front of us?"

Someone like Song Lecheng would never take the police seriously. Feeling empowered by his dirty money, he arrogantly yelled at the police, "Who do you think you are, daring to yell at me? Do you know who my grandfather is?"

This made the police laugh. Pointing at him, the officer said, "I don\'t care who your grandfather is! Even if he is the Jade Emperor today, he cannot allow you to intimidate and threaten others in front of us!"

Song Lecheng had been spoiled since childhood. Seeing the police pointing at him, he angrily slapped the officer\'s hand away.

Then Song Lecheng was arrested for assaulting a police officer.

The onlooking staff: ......He really deserved it. I never liked this entitled second generation brat.

The beauty who had come with Song Lecheng turned pale with fright and slipped away unnoticed when people weren\'t looking. When Song JinXing went to the police station to give his statement, the mall executives had also finally arrived.

He was very dissatisfied with the efficiency of these subordinates he had personally promoted.

Now these executives kept bowing and apologizing to him, promising countless shopping benefits from the mall. They didn\'t want this incident to escalate and negatively impact the mall\'s brand image. They hoped he would agree to settle this privately.

Song JinXing had originally intended to teach Song Lecheng a good lesson. But one executive\'s words made him change his mind: "Miss Zhong, we understand you are an actress. With the information explosion online these days, many things can easily be distorted through transmission. We know you\'ve suffered an injustice, but if we let this ferment, it will also impact your image as an actress. We sincerely ask for your forgiveness and hope that you can be the bigger person."

He thought of the negative online comments about Zhong Ruanxing and felt a little unhappy.

But he had to admit the executive\'s words made sense. Given the current online environment, it was better to minimize the impact on Zhong Ruanxing as much as possible.

Song Lecheng had already suffered a loss. So Song JinXing nodded and agreed to settle privately.
