Luofeng glanced at the pet dog's owner.
It was a middle-aged woman, probably in her fifties. She was likely a Jingzhou local. She had an air of domineering arrogance. Even when facing the police officers, she maintained an incredibly haughty demeanor.
Luofeng knew that locals like her, likely owning a dozen or so properties or some businesses, often acted as if they were second only to the heavens themselves. Pure nouveau riche. If their ancestors had been wealthy, they usually weren't so ostentatious and were polite in their dealings. That's just how the suddenly rich behaved.
"I'm telling you, our dog was bought for one hundred thousand Yuan when it was a puppy. I've raised it for over three years now, and I treat it like my own son! If I don't get fifty thousand Yuan today, none of you are leaving!" the middle-aged woman declared, her tone unyielding.
Luofeng stepped forward. "Auntie, you..."
"Who are you calling Auntie? How rude!" the middle-aged woman cut him off sharply.
