A great director who grew up happily

Chapter 282: Beating the Dog When It’s Down

Chen Jinnian and Wang Yidi held hands and strolled along the seaside boardwalk of Shenzhen Bay, admiring the neon buildings of different heights in the distance. The brilliant lights and shadows extended to both sides along the coastline, and in the flashing lights, they formed the most splendid night view of this new city.

"You and my brother are so childish. Why not compete in eating?"

Wang Yidi's tone was full of blame, but when she thought of her always serious elder brother, slumped in the chair, stroking his bulging belly with his hand, she couldn't help laughing out loud.

Chen Jinnian held onto the railing with his hands, staring at the shimmering water. He said somewhat depressedly, "He was the one who took the lead. I had no intention of competing with him."

He had also overeaten himself, and after walking outside for half an hour, his stomach felt a little better.

All I can say is that men are animals. The more people there are, the lower their IQ becomes. Especially when it comes to winning or losing, their IQ drops to zero.

"Then who won?" Wang Yidi asked curiously.

"draw!"

Chen Jinnian slammed the railing hard. This was the fundamental reason for his depression. Seeing Wang Yiming's calm look, he thought that the other party still had a lot of room for improvement, so he simply stood up and admitted defeat, and ended the competition on his own initiative.

But he never expected that Wang Yiming was just pretending and had actually reached his limit. The moment he saw him surrender, he spat out the contents of his mouth, struggled to move his body, and leaned back in a chair to rest.

Seeing this scene, Chen Jinnian was furious.

"Your brother is not a good person. He says one thing to your face and another behind your back. He looks honest with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but he is actually more cunning than a monkey when he gets involved."

"Your brother is not a good guy."

Wang Yidi slapped his stomach in annoyance, almost making him vomit. "I'm telling you, you two, stop here."

"As long as your brother..., well, there will definitely not be a next time."

With the help of the roadside lights, Chen Jinnian noticed Wang Yidi's warning look and immediately changed his words and made a promise.

But it is hard to say whether it will happen again in the future. After all, Chen Jinnian was not satisfied with the result of today's competition and thought that Wang Yiming was too despicable to cheat.

Wang Yiming was also dissatisfied with the result, thinking that he had not yet exerted his full strength.

The two of them walked along the plank road for a long time, and only left satisfied after taking photos and checking in with the landmark "Spring Bamboo Shoot" building.

The two of them lived in Wang Yidi's parents' home, so naturally they couldn't be as free as they were in the little nest at Shuxiang Yayuan. They could only sleep in their own bedrooms.

The next morning, Chen Jinnian was still in a drowsy sleep when he felt a bright light shining on his face. He struggled to raise his head and found that Wang Yidi appeared in the room and pulled open the bedroom curtains.

Use your hands to block the glaring sunlight.

"Well—good morning." He couldn't help yawning.

"It's still early. Look at the time, you lazy pig." Wang Yidi grabbed his arm and pulled him up with force.

Chen Jinnian rubbed his messy hair, picked up the mobile phone beside his pillow and took a look, and was immediately shocked.

"Why is it already past nine? It's over, it's over."

When he came, his mother Su Ying specifically reminded him that if Wang Yidi's parents insisted on letting him stay at home, he must get up early, act diligently, and leave a good impression on the other parents.

All sleepiness disappeared quickly at this moment, as if I sat up in shock from a dying illness, and my body jumped up from the bed as if it was equipped with springs. I quickly began to make the bed, fold the quilt, and hurriedly changed into pajamas.

"Okay, okay, there's no one at home now, you don't have to pretend."

Wang Yidi interrupted him with a smile in his eyes.

"nobody?"

Chen Jinnian was confused. How could there be no one here? Except for Wang Dazhuang, no one else in Wang Yidi's family went to work.

"Yeah, my grandparents went out for morning tea with their old friends. They'll be chatting and eating until noon. As for my mom, guess what she did?"

"I have no idea where Auntie is going. She's either doing yoga, getting some skincare, or shopping."

After knowing that there was indeed no one at home, he sat back on the bed and relaxed, casually guessing where Wang Qing had gone.

But every time he said one, Wang Yidi smiled and shook his head, expecting him to continue guessing.

After Chen Jinnian guessed a few more answers, he couldn't think of any more, so he lay back on the bed and said, "Hurry up and tell me. If you keep teasing me, I'll see how long you can hold back."

These words hit Wang Yidi's sore spot. The purpose of her waking up Chen Jinnian was to share the little gossip she had just learned, and she had no choice but to listen.

"Hurry up and get up. Isn't it okay for me to tell you?"

She sat sideways on the bed and shook Chen Jinnian's body hard, trying to get him to sit up, but Chen Jinnian seemed to have cotton in his ears. Not only did he not get up, he also closed his eyes and tried to continue his previous dream.

"Okay." Wang Yidi crossed his arms angrily, "Don't force me to do it. Three, two..."

"One"

After Chen Jinnian finished speaking, he quickly sat up. It was okay to joke, but he had to know when to stop. Otherwise, if he really made his girlfriend angry, he would be the one who suffered in the end.

Whether the other party complains to Su Ying or goes to Wang Qing to complain, he will be in big trouble.

Seeing how obedient he was, Wang Yidi nodded with satisfaction, then leaned beside him and told him what he had learned this morning.

Chen Jinnian knew the protagonist of the incident. She was Wang Yidi's cousin whom they met when they got off the plane yesterday.

Yesterday, the other party caused a scene at the airport. The airline, under pressure to maintain its image and to protect the order on site, negotiated and gave her 4,000 yuan in compensation. However, the matter did not end there. The airline subsequently asked the airport to investigate and found all the surveillance videos of her getting on and off the plane.

It was discovered that Wang Yidi's cousin had made a fuss before boarding the plane. According to the regulations of domestic flights, there are regulations on the weight and size of passengers' carry-on luggage. Generally, luggage that is 20 inches or less and weighs less than 5 kilograms can be taken directly on the plane, but her suitcase obviously exceeded the standard and could only be checked in according to regulations.

It was originally just a small matter, but my cousin cursed at the check-in staff at the time and threatened that if her luggage was damaged in any way during the check-in process, she would ask the airline to compensate her for her financial losses.

So there was the scene after getting off the plane.

After collecting evidence, the airline immediately called the police. The compensation of 4,000 yuan constitutes the crime of extortion in Shenzhen, which is a large amount and can be punished with imprisonment of not more than three years, detention and control.

So when she was leaving by plane this morning, she was detained on the spot. Now the police are looking for Wang Qing to take a statement and ask about what happened.

"Oh, so your mother went to rescue her?"

Wang Yidi shook his head after hearing this. "Of course not. My mother is not that generous. Besides, her son doesn't care about her. Why should our family help her?"

After understanding the Wang family's position, Chen Jinnian pondered for a moment and said, "I want to add fuel to the fire. She tried to blackmail me in front of the elevator yesterday, so I want to... send her the surveillance video from that time. What do you think?"

"No problem, I'll go with you to the property management to get surveillance."

Wang Yidi answered decisively. She was well aware of the injustice her boyfriend had suffered yesterday. Now that she had the opportunity to take revenge, she would of course fully support him and help Chen Jinnian vent his anger.

Her boyfriend, she is the only one who has the right to bully him.

After reaching a consensus, the two of them simply washed and packed up, then went out to the property management together.
