Chapter 57

I am very grateful for the recommendation from the author of "Back to 2003," Yi Shihang. His praise is truly too much for me to bear!

As soon as Feng Hongbing returned, the woman standing at the door asked, "Did you bring the money?"

Before Feng Hongbing could speak, Feng Yiping smiled and said, "Let's go inside and talk. It's not proper to stand here at the door."

After saying that, he directly walked past the girl, entered the shop, and sat down in the swivel chair in front of the mirror. He acted as if he were the owner and then invited Feng Hongbing and the other to come in, "Come on, sit down."

So the two of them came in and sat on the simple sofa in the shop. As a result, the two "owners" had no place to sit.

The leading girl glared at Feng Yiping and huffed, then moved a chair from the inner room and placed it in the middle with a loud thud, sitting down facing Feng Yiping. The other girl, who seemed to be a subordinate, stood behind her.

Feng Yiping completely ignored her actions, pointed at Feng Hongbing, and said with a smile, "I am his younger brother, and I know everything. If you want to find our school teachers, you can go now. The school leaders and the accompanying teachers are in the cinema. We will wait here."

Upon hearing this, not only did the two girls change their expressions, but Feng Hongbing also became anxious. His classmate looked at Feng Yiping with anger.

The girl sitting down glared at Feng Yiping fiercely, as if about to stand up. The girl standing behind her gently pressed her shoulder, and she sat back down.

For them, going to the school to find the teachers was the ultimate weapon. Not using it actually had more deterrent power.

Her expression changed several times, and she forced a smile, lowering her voice to Feng Yiping, "As long as you hand over the money, we won't go to the teachers."

Feng Yiping didn't respond to her, "You can see that we came today with our teacher, in a line. If you go to them, they won't just punish my brother and the others; they will also help cover it up so that my parents don't find out. Do you believe me?"

Everyone, including Feng Hongbing, looked disbelieving. The girl looked at him with disdain, "What nonsense are you talking? Do you think I'm a three-year-old?"

"Ha ha," Feng Yiping laughed, pointing at Feng Hongbing, "Do you know why? Because my brother won't turn 16 until this winter. He is still a minor, legally a person with limited capacity. According to the 'Protection of Minors Law' implemented on January 1st last year, in a school-organized group activity, if something like this happens, the school is responsible for the organization and must investigate the relevant parties. Do you think the teachers will punish my brother and the others? Or will they blame you?"

Feng Hongbing and the others didn't know if what he said was true, but they saw that the two girls seemed to lose their momentum and immediately felt that there was a chance!

The two girls in the hair salon originally relied on the fact that Feng Hongbing and the others wouldn't dare to make a big fuss or let the teachers know. They had considered it. Looking at Feng Hongbing and the others' attire, they thought that although 100 yuan per person was a bit much, with some pressure, they could still come up with the money. They didn't really want to make a big fuss; they just wanted to get as much as they could.

Now, with Feng Yiping's words, their biggest advantage was gone. The girl was a bit flustered, her expression changing. But she quickly thought, "What does this young brat know? Even if he talks confidently, he's probably just bluffing."

Just as she was about to speak, Feng Yiping continued, "As for you, providing paid massage services to minors is definitely a violation of the 'Protection of Minors Law.' Now, you're also suspected of extortion and restricting personal freedom. If this gets big, the lightest punishment would be detention and a fine."

Alright, now their supposed advantage had become a noose around their necks. The girl stiffened, about to speak, but Feng Yiping cut in, "You might have someone backing you, and you might want to find someone to wait around the school to deal with my brother and the others, right?"

The girl didn't respond, but her silence was an admission. She had indeed thought of doing that to scare them.

Feng Yiping sat up straight, staring at her intently, and said with more emphasis, "In our village, Feng Family Field, there are over 300 households with the same surname, all closely united. There are more than 500 able-bodied men. No one has ever bullied us without paying double. You can check. If you want to find someone, we'll wait!"

After delivering his threat, Feng Yiping still smiled, "I've said my piece. Now it's up to you. You can also detain me. When our school teachers come, we'll see what happens. You can choose not to believe me, but we don't care. The teachers will be here to make the decision."

Feng Yiping leaned back in the chair, propping his chin with his hand, swaying leisurely.

The girl across from him gritted her teeth, her expression changing. Looking at Feng Yiping, she realized that his words didn't seem to be a lie. Should she just let them go? The girl standing behind her leaned down and whispered something in her ear.

Feng Yiping didn't even look at them, instead looking out the window with interest, "Or, you can let us go now, and we'll pretend nothing happened. I saw that you charge 3 yuan per haircut. That's over 30 yuan, which isn't a small amount!"

After much hesitation, the girl finally stood up, threw the chair aside, and walked into the inner room, saying, "Get out, all of you, and don't let me see you again!"

Feng Yiping understood her actions. She hadn't gained much and needed to say something to save face.

The girl standing there came over to shoo them away, "Go, go, consider yourselves unlucky!"

Feng Hongbing's classmate had already slipped out, and Feng Hongbing waited for Feng Yiping, his expression a mix of emotions. Feng Yiping walked over, put his hand on his shoulder, and said, "A word of advice: know the law."

His voice wasn't loud, but everyone inside and outside could hear it. As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud crash from the inner room, something breaking!

The girl who had shooed them away was also angry but couldn't do anything. She urged them, "Go, go, go far away."

As soon as they stepped out, the door slammed shut. The classmate waiting outside came over and said to the door, "We'll wait at the school!"

Feng Yiping and the other turned to look at him. He had been silent before but now acted tough. What was the point?

Feeling embarrassed under their gaze, he came over and put his arm around Feng Yiping's shoulder, "Yiping, right? If you need anything at school, just find me!"

Feng Yiping didn't bother with such empty promises. He smiled at him and said to Feng Hongbing, "I'm going to find my classmates. You should go back early."

He turned and walked away, leaving Feng Hongbing with what he thought was a cool back view.

"Oh, okay," Feng Hongbing replied woodenly. He was still in shock. His usually quiet younger brother had just talked his way out of a big problem! Was this still the same reserved Feng Yiping? And how did he know so much?

Thank you all for your support! I am very grateful for the rewards from "More Seductive than Yang Mi," Xiaoyao Donghua, and Zhoulzhao!
