"Heh heh." Xu Xiuxiu had not encountered these kinds of overbearing jerks for a long time; the last time was because of Song Yuanming. She thought she wouldn't have to deal with such people again, but unexpectedly, here they were today, making things rather amusing.
"Otherwise, what? You think you can scare me? A bunch of thugs thinking they have power and influence? And demanding 500 yuan as compensation? You're really dreaming big!" Xu Xiuxiu said sarcastically, her laughter fading as she straightened her face.
She knew full well that Chen Biao was telling the truth—these people really were vicious friends who didn't value their own lives. In other places, Xu Xiuxiu might have avoided them, since even a formidable dragon won't suppress a local snake and offending such riffraff could easily disgust her. But this being in City Z, if she encountered trouble and still felt the need to cower and endure in silence, that would really be a laughing matter.
