Upon hearing the sound, the group turned to look.

Xiang Fan slowly walked to Luan Xin's side, gave her a reassuring look, and then turned his gaze to the middle-aged woman.

"You just said that only with eight million in compensation can this matter be put behind us, is that right?"

The middle-aged woman sized up Xiang Fan, her face full of disdain.

"Who do you think you are? This is our family matter, it's none of your business!"

Seeing her arrogant attitude, Xiang Fan raised the corner of his mouth and chuckled.

"Never mind who I am, just tell me, yes or no?"

"So what if it is?" the middle-aged woman sneered.

"What, are you planning to pay for her compensation?"

"If you're going to pay compensation, then hurry up and hand over the money!"

"Or else, get as far away as you can!"

In her opinion, Xiang Fan was just trying to be a hero because Luan Xin was pretty.

She didn't take this kind of person seriously at all.

Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Xiang Fan's smile deepened, and his tone remained calm.

"Eight million is just a number to me."

"But I'd like to know, how did you calculate that number?"

"As long as you can give me a name for it, I'll pay for it."

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged woman's eyes lit up with joy, and she hurriedly asked more questions.

"Really? You mean it?"

Seeing Xiang Fan nod, she immediately started counting on her fingers, spitting as she spoke.

"My son earns hundreds of thousands a year. He lost his job, but he found a new one and got back to his previous level."

"At least three million in lost wages, is that alright?"

Xiang Fan nodded slightly: "No problem."

"What about the remaining five million?"

The middle-aged woman became even more excited upon seeing this.

"His leg was broken; the medical expenses and compensation for emotional distress will amount to at least two million?"

"He hasn't found a girlfriend yet. If he suffers from long-term health problems that delay his marriage, even an extra three million wouldn't be too little!"

She glanced at Chen Hong, her face showing utter satisfaction.

"Even so, I'm only going to lower the price for the sake of our family relationship!"

"Otherwise, with my son's looks and abilities, he could easily marry a rich heiress and rise to the top in one fell swoop!"

"Can this loss be calculated?"

This shameless scheme left the onlookers utterly astonished.

Chen Hong and Luan Xin were so angry that their faces turned pale.

They've never seen anything so shameless before!

Luan Xin clenched her fists and said urgently.

"Xiang Fan, you don't need to pay this money!"

"At worst, we can just let her report it to the authorities!"

"I'd like to see if the police can frame me when it's clearly her son's fault."

Seeing Luan Xin's pretty face flushed red and her sullen expression, Xiang Fan gently comforted her.

"Don't be angry. I'm here, I'll definitely handle it."

"Have you forgotten what happened at the restaurant?"

Luan Xin was taken aback, then remembered that day when Huang Mao and his gang came to collect protection money.

In the end, Xiang Fan forced them to pay a large sum of protection money!

Recalling Xiang Fan's unyielding attitude in every situation, her anxiety instantly dissipated, and she nodded emphatically.

"Um!"

At this moment, Xiang Fan looked at the middle-aged woman again.

There was a hint of mockery in his eyes.

"That's true. If this hadn't happened, your son might have gotten a promotion and a raise, married a beautiful and wealthy woman, become a CEO, and reached the pinnacle of his life!"

"How about this, let's round it up and just give us ten million in compensation, how about that?"

"W-what? Ten million?"

Upon hearing this number, the middle-aged woman was stunned, her face filled with disbelief.

"You...you're not kidding me, are you?"

"How could that be?" Xiang Fan denied with a smile.

"I'll write you a cash check. You can call the bank and check."

As he spoke, he took out his checkbook and quickly wrote down a string of numbers.

The middle-aged woman took the check and hurriedly dialed the bank's number.

After confirming it was real, her face instantly lit up with a smile, and she kissed the check hard.

Just as she was about to leave, her eyes suddenly darted around, and she looked at Xiang Fan again.

The greed in their eyes was even more intense.

"Look, the basic compensation has been agreed upon."

"My son booked a deluxe package here today! And it's in the VIP lounge!"

"Now that things have gotten so complicated, we definitely can't eat. Shouldn't you reimburse us for that too?"

Upon hearing this, Xiang Fan's eyes grew even colder, but his smile remained unchanged.

"That's only fair. How much?"

"Not much, only about 500,000!"

The middle-aged woman blurted out, then quickly added, fearing Xiang Fan would refuse.

"Don't complain about the price; this is Qingmu Manor!"

"My son has invited several important people, including the owner of Qingmu Manor, who's coming to keep him company today!"

"This is all a favor, we have to make it up to you!"

Seeing that the middle-aged woman was so greedy that she dared to tell such lies, Xiang Fan glanced at Chu Zhongtian without leaving a trace.

Seeing the other person's ashen face, Xiang Fan couldn't help but chuckle.

"Okay, then add another 500,000!"

As he spoke, he wrote down another check.

The middle-aged woman held two checks, beaming from ear to ear.

He happily tucked the check into his pocket and turned to leave.

"Wait a moment!"

Xiang Fan's voice suddenly rang out.

The middle-aged woman turned around, a hint of flattery still on her face.

"Is there anything else?"

Xiang Fan stepped forward slowly, his smile vanishing completely, replaced by a chilling aura.

"I have given you every penny of the compensation you asked for."

"Now, let's talk about the compensation you're going to give Luan Xin."
