After her identity was stolen, she lived in the short-lived villain's phone.

Chapter 329 Shen Yanzhi's Compensation
In the corridor outside the ward, Fan Li was pacing back and forth anxiously.

If Li Ling hadn't been standing next to her, Fan Li probably would have already started eavesdropping through the door!
When she noticed the hospital room door being opened from the inside, and saw Yang Cheng'an coming out, she immediately went to him and asked anxiously, "Honey, how did it go? Did the other party agree to a settlement?"

“No. They want you to go in by yourself.” Yang Cheng’an sighed and lowered his voice, “Lily, they don’t seem very approachable.”

Yang's aunt, who came out right after them, couldn't help but lower her voice and start complaining: "It's not that he's not easy to talk to, he's just arrogant and conceited! We're already willing to pay for compensation for accidentally breaking his phone, what more does he want!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Cheng'an quickly stopped her: "Auntie, we're at a disadvantage right now, you can't say that..."

As he spoke, he immediately looked at Li Ling.

Fortunately, Li Ling realized it was them coming out and didn't go forward, possibly because she didn't hear Aunt Yang's complaints.

Fan Li's heart sank upon hearing this.

She still remembers the handsome and aloof look on his face when he rescued Yang Xiaohong from the river.

Originally, it was thought that Yang Youyou's attempt had failed because she, a young girl, was embarrassed to meet a handsome but cold-faced man. However, even with the entire Yang family present, the other party was still so difficult to talk to!

If Fan Li had known that her impulsive act on the bridge would lead to this predicament, she would never have kicked out that time.

She took a deep breath, suppressing her complicated feelings, and said to Yang Cheng'an and Aunt Yang, "I understand. Thank you for your hard work. Since he wants me to go in, then I will go in."

Fan Li pushed open the half-closed hospital room door.

There were many people standing in rows in the room.

Thankfully, this is a VIP ward; otherwise, how could there be such a spacious room for so many members of the Yang family to come in?

However, once inside, Fan Li noticed that despite the large number of Yang family members, they didn't have any imposing presence. Even though there were sofas and chairs nearby, no one sat down. Instead, they stood obediently, like poor students being punished by their teacher.

In terms of sheer presence, they were far inferior to the two cold-faced youths, like two fierce tigers and several trembling little lambs, clearly distinct from each other.

Fan Li had seen Shen Yanzhi by the river before. Looking at the young man sitting on the hospital bed, she bowed her head and apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm the one who put your phone in the river."

Su Chengyan stood beside the hospital bed, coldly looking at the seemingly pitiful and innocent woman in front of him: "Why did you put his phone in the river?"

"I really didn't mean to. I was too worried about the situation in the river and didn't pay attention to my footing..." Fan Li said with a look of regret.

This was the explanation she had prepared after learning that Shen Yanzhi had called the police; it was the same explanation she had given when questioned by the police before.

Fan Li knew perfectly well that even if there were surveillance footage of her kicking her phone into the water, so what? As long as she stubbornly refused to admit it, even the police could only charge her with the crime of negligently damaging someone else's property.

This charge is much less serious than her maliciously throwing the other person's phone into the river, and it also has a better reputation.

"In short, you can make me apologize however you want. This was my fault, and I'm willing to compensate you." Fan Li lowered her head, her expression even more sincere.

Sitting on the hospital bed, Shen Yanzhi asked, "Are you really planning to solve this with money?"

His voice was indifferent, and his handsome face was cold and stern, like the unmelting ice on a snow-capped mountain, but to Fan Li's ears, it was like heavenly music.

Thinking the other party had finally softened and wanted to reconcile, she quickly nodded: "This was my fault. If you're willing, I'll compensate you three times for the losses I caused you." The Yang family members behind her were somewhat surprised and couldn't believe that the negotiation had gone so smoothly.

The two young men had just coldly let Fan Li in, but it turns out they weren't deliberately making things difficult for her; they simply wanted to talk to her face-to-face.

But the next second, they realized that they were completely wrong.

Because they heard Shen Yanzhi's offer:
"Fifty million."

When those three words rang out in the ward, apart from Su Chengyan and Chi Yu who remained expressionless, everyone else was stunned for a moment, then looked shocked, as if they were doubting that their ears were hallucinating. But when they saw that their companions also had the same shocked expression as them, they immediately realized that this was not their imagination, and that they had been extorted by the other party!
"Don't go too far! Fifty million? Are you kidding us?" Standing at the back, Aunt Yang finally couldn't contain her anger and blurted out, "What kind of phone is worth fifty million? This is extortion! We can call the police right now and sue you!"

Su Chengyan didn't care: "Aren't the police right outside? Let him in and see who he arrests."

Yang Cheng'an pulled his aunt aside and said in a gentle voice, "We sincerely want to compensate and apologize, but isn't fifty million too much?"

“We came here with a sincere desire for reconciliation. Even if you have done the Yang family a favor today, you cannot ask for an exorbitant amount,” the Yang family uncle couldn’t help but say.

The rest of the Yang family said, “We just consulted a friend who is a police officer. Even if your phone is very expensive, it's only worth about 20,000 or 30,000 yuan. Although Fan Li was in the wrong, she didn't kick your phone into the river on purpose, and she's showing a good attitude in admitting her mistake. If you're deliberately trying to make things difficult for her, the worst outcome will be that Fan Li is detained and punished. She won't receive a serious punishment, and you won't get any compensation. Why bother?”

The Yang family had clearly made thorough preparations before their arrival.

They believed their apology was sincere enough, and if the two young people still refused to reconcile, the worst outcome would be that Fan Li would be detained by the police.

Su Chengyan said, "You were the ones who kept asking about the compensation price before, but now that I've actually told you, you're not happy."

His slightly mocking tone immediately provoked the Yang family's dissatisfaction and angry glares: "We came here with sincerity, and you immediately ask for fifty million! Is this the attitude of reconciliation?!"

Fifty million? Let alone Yang Cheng'an not being able to come up with that amount of money, even if everyone present transferred all the balance in their bank accounts to Yang Cheng'an, they probably still couldn't scrape together this astronomical sum in the eyes of ordinary people.

If Shen Yanzhi isn't extorting money, what is?
Even if he dropped it in the river, that phone was just an ordinary touchscreen phone. Even if it were inlaid with gold, jade, or diamonds, it wouldn't be that expensive!

Chen Jin, who had entered at some point, coughed to attract everyone's attention.

After the Yang family all looked at him, Chen Jin, briefcase in hand, adjusted his glasses and began with a serious expression: "Please allow me to introduce you. This gentleman sitting on the hospital bed is my boss: the current CEO of Shen's Group, CEO of Fanxing Hotel, owner of over a hundred scenic spots and over fifty film and television shooting bases, and also the founder of Orange Mobile..."

Before the Yang family could figure out where this person had come from, they were bewildered by the string of introductions about his identity that Chen Jin had given them.

After Chen Jin finished speaking, their eyes showed obvious fear and apprehension when they looked at Shen Yanzhi.

Chen Jin, seemingly oblivious to the unpredictable expressions on their faces, continued, "The phone that was kicked into the river was our boss's personal phone. It was the Orange PURA90 Pro, a high-end phone independently developed by a company under the Shen Group, with an official price of 29,900 yuan."

The phone itself may not be expensive, but the data and private information it contains are invaluable. Fifty million is just the loss from the scheduled meeting this afternoon due to the delay caused by retrieving the phone.

Chen Jinwen was polite and reasonable: "If you are not satisfied with the figure of 50 million, we can re-estimate the amount of compensation. In addition to the losses caused by the meeting being delayed due to the schedule, there is also the value of the phone itself, as well as other expenses incurred in retrieving the phone this afternoon, which should all be included."

　The bear's glasses are broken, so please don't wait for updates.
