Qin Chuan couldn't be bothered to tangle with them and was about to enter the zoo with little Nannan in his arms.

However, several passersby blocked his way.

These passersby crossed their arms and looked towards the sky.

Although they didn't intend to interfere, they clearly wouldn't let Qin Chuan leave.

A few self-proclaimed righteous passersby were pointing fingers.

"What kind of person is this? Hitting someone and still being so self-righteous."

"Holding a child in his arms, not afraid of setting a bad example?"

"That's just how ruffians are."

"It's a law-abiding society now; think you can just hit someone and run? What are you thinking?"

"Ma'am, quickly call the police, we'll testify for you."

More and more passersby joined in on the accusations, verbally attacking Qin Chuan.

Even the zoo security stared sternly at Qin Chuan to prevent any trouble.

Seeing people backing her up, Li Jinfeng immediately acted even more pitiable.

"There are still more good people in the world. This guy deceived my daughter, and now he even hits my son."

Li Jinfeng sobbed bitterly: "My poor daughter, she's a university teacher and has been deceived by him, she doesn't even want to see her family anymore…"

These words inflamed the crowd even more.

"He deceived someone's daughter and dared to hit someone? Scum!"

"There are too many scumbags like this, leading to so many girls being deceived."

"This guy even has a daughter and goes to seduce someone else's daughter, I've seen shameless people, but never like this."

The words of the crowd were like sharp arrows, piercing relentlessly.

Seeing this, Li Jinfeng's mouth secretly curled into a triumphant smile.

In her view, the bystanders were on her side. When the police arrived, there was no way Qin Chuan could get away easily.

If she didn't extort a couple of tens of thousands from him, this wouldn't end.

Thinking of this, Li Jinfeng gave her son on the ground a stern look, signaling him to keep playing dead and not get up too quickly.

Before long, a police motorcycle rode up.

Two officers appeared at the scene, activating their body cameras.

"Who called the police?" one officer asked.

Li Jinfeng, eager to speak, said, "It was me, it was me, I called the police, officer. He abducted my daughter and hit my son, please help me…"

Acting proactively, Li Jinfeng put herself in a helpless victim's position, seeking sympathy.

The officer listened and turned to Qin Chuan, "Young man, tell us your side of the story."

"He tried to attack; I defended myself. It's all on camera and can be checked anytime."

Qin Chuan, unflustered, explained with logic, "As for her claim that I abducted her daughter, it's pure nonsense. She's my advisor, and I'm her student."

The officer nodded, asked for Qin Chuan's student ID, and gave it a look.

Then, he turned and made a call to verify the details.

Soon, the officer returned, "With matters like this, I suggest resolving privately."

Many times, resolving domestic disputes privately is preferred by officers.

"No way I'm settling, I want him arrested for intentional harm."

Li Jinfeng clearly wasn't satisfied with this resolution; she wanted money.

As long as the officer was there, she could extort.

Once the officer left, she had no way to handle Qin Chuan.

"Officer, you have to stand up for me, my son was beaten so badly by him that he can't even get up…" Li Jinfeng persisted.

"Young man, even if it was self-defense, you went too far," the officer reminded.

The implication being that Qin Chuan's self-defense was excessive, and if Li Jinfeng pursued it, Qin Chuan might end up detained with a record.

After reminding Qin Chuan, the officer turned to Li Jinfeng, "What are your demands?"

"Compensation! There must be compensation! Two… no, three thousand. Not a penny less," Li Jinfeng exclaimed exuberantly.

Hearing this amount, the officer couldn't help but frown.

Qin Chuan just gave her son one kick, three thousand?

This was an outrageous demand.

The officer felt compelled to interfere but before he could, Qin Chuan flatly said, "His injuries aren't more than a bottle of medicinal oil, and you want three thousand from me…"

Qin Chuan's voice paused, and he smirked playfully, "Well, I'll pay, but if that's the case, I'll make sure I've caused three thousand worth of injuries."

With that, he walked towards Jian Wen on the ground, lifting his foot directly.

Hiss!

Jian Wen, who was pretending to be dead, immediately jumped up and hid behind the officer when he saw Qin Chuan raise his foot.

"Officer, he wants to hit me, he still wants to hit me," Jian Wen shivered in fear.

The officer's eye twitched involuntarily at the scene.

Not only Qin Chuan wanted to hit them, but even he was tempted to kick this mother and son duo.

Asking for three thousand right off the bat.

Isn't this just like scamming?

But this Qin Chuan kid was bold enough to think of such a tactic.

"Ahem…"

The officer cleared his throat and reminded, "Settling doesn't mean extortion, be mindful."

Li Jinfeng was clearly dissatisfied, "He attacked first, we're the victims, my son was kicked three meters away, who knows if there would be sequela. Asking… not extorting three thousand is already lenient."

The officer detected a sense of unreasonable behavior from her words.

How could they expect permanent care just from kicking her son?

Although he couldn't openly criticize due to his position.

However, based on his years of experience, he could tell Li Jinfeng was mostly making unreasonable demands.

He couldn't help but feel some sympathy for Qin Chuan as well.

Dealing with such a pestering rogue was indeed the most troublesome.

Once they got a valid reason, it wouldn't leave without trouble.

The best way would be a monetary settlement.

But three thousand was quite a sum.

Especially for a student.

"Young man, consider calling someone from your family," the officer advised.

In such situations, it's best resolved by the adults in the family.

Qin Chuan glanced at the little one in his arms, feeling a bit torn.

Today, it seemed he might have to break a promise.

But just the thought of giving money to someone like Li Jinfeng made him feel sick. He'd rather throw the money into the sea than give it to someone like her.

Just as Qin Chuan was feeling troubled, an excited voice suddenly came from outside the crowd, "Nannan…"

"Hmph!"

The little one still seemed upset, pouting her lips and turning her face away.

Seeing this, Meng Wantang smiled wryly, then noticed the presence of the officers.

"What happened?"

Meng Wantang looked at Qin Chuan concernedly, "What's going on?"

Li Jinfeng immediately chimed in, "Are you this kid's guardian? He hit someone, pay up, three thousand, not a penny less!"
