Chapter 504: Smashing

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Xu Wen was no longer the timid stepdaughter; she was now the rightful heiress of the Xu family and wouldn’t tolerate any disrespect.

Seeing Xu Wen taking the lead, the other women also began to cause trouble.

“What’s with these flower baskets? They’re so ugly. Let me help you get rid of them.”

“Why is this glass box here? Oops, my bad, it slipped. I’ll compensate for the damage.”

“Lingdong Jewelry’s logo is hideous. This plaque can’t be hung up; it’s too ugly!”

Xu Wen’s entourage acted like thugs, smashing things left and right. Song Fan’s team looked ready to intervene, but she signaled them to hold back.

When they had done enough damage, Song Fan took out her phone. “Alright, it’s time to call the police.”

“Do you know who we are? How dare you call the police?” one of the women shouted, glaring at Song Fan with wide eyes.

Song Fan shook her head. “No, I don’t. But you can tell me your names, and I’ll inform the police.”

“Oh, by the way, I’ve recorded the whole incident,” Song Fan said, turning her phone to show the video. It captured the vandalism from multiple angles, with close-ups of several faces. “A video of wealthy ladies from the capital vandalizing a store—think the reporters will be interested?”

Xu Wen stepped forward but failed to grab the phone.

Song Fan deftly dodged and pretended to clutch her chest. “Seriously? Miss Xu attempting a robbery in public? Don’t worry, I’ve recorded this too. More people will be interested in news about Miss Xu. Especially since the target is me?”

Lan Yue, understanding the situation, stepped in to support. “Exactly. Why did the investigation into the A City explosion suddenly stop? Why hasn’t the mastermind been caught? Could it be a big family from the capital suppressing the case?”

Wen Chao, channeling his inner drama queen, leaned weakly on Wang Wei. “That was terrifying! I can’t remember who hit my head; I feel so dizzy. Are all wealthy people in the capital thieves and murderers?”

“Boss, we should leave. This Xu Family mall is unsafe. If jewelry stores can be vandalized, customers are at risk too. It’s a shady place!” Li Na forced back laughter, her face contorting with effort.

Among them, Wang Wei remained composed. He adjusted his glasses and said, “The damage here is at least 200,000 yuan. Plus, Wen Chao’s lost wages and the disruption caused by this incident… The brand’s reputation has taken a hit. Compensation should be around 3 million yuan.”

When he said this, even Song Corporation staff were stunned.

The decorations on site were worth at most a few thousand yuan. The staff had been preparing the site for days. Wen Chao couldn’t believe it—was his lost wages a million yuan?

But Wang Wei, unflustered, continued, “This is just the civil compensation. I’m only an accountant. I don’t know about criminal liability, but legal news suggests that losses over a million could lead to several years in prison.”

Everyone familiar with Wang Wei was shocked by his brazen lies. Yet, his poker face made it seem plausible.

Xu Wen was furious. She had confirmed with the mall manager that there were no cameras. How did Song Fan set up surveillance so quickly?

The people with Xu Wen began to back off, and some even started negotiating with Wang Wei.

“This cheap glass box can’t be worth more than 200 yuan. How did you come up with 20,000 yuan?”

“Yeah! These flowers are maybe a few thousand yuan. Are you trying to extort us?”

Wang Wei pulled out a tablet and opened a spreadsheet. “Sorry, I did make a mistake.”

The people behind Xu Wen sighed in relief.

He continued, adjusting his glasses and swiftly typing on the tablet. “The glass display case is custom-designed by an E Country designer and made from imported M Country glass. I only calculated the finished product cost, not the design fee.”

“The flowers were airlifted from A City and arranged by a professional florist. I also didn’t include the chartered flight costs…”

Listening to his increasingly exaggerated claims, Li Na pinched Wen Chao’s arm, barely stifling her laughter.

Wang Wei looked up and saw Gu Chen walking in. He added, “The total is 5 million yuan. This covers Song Corporation’s losses. Brown Group and Gu Corporation’s losses will need to be calculated with their accountants.”

Xu Wen and her entourage were stunned into silence, realizing they were in over their heads.
