My Sweet Physician Wife Calls The Shots

"How shameless must you be to demand 3500 yuan just like that? Even the new ones don't cost 3500 yuan, right? Are you trying to extort him, an elderly, by banking on the fact that he doesn't know the market price?"

As soon as Zhong Nuannuan finished speaking, the onlookers also started shifting to her side.

"It was your fault, to begin with. I often see you riding so fast in the residential area."

"That's right. If I hadn't stopped my grandson that day, he would have been sent flying by you!"

"You bumped into someone, and they haven't even criticized you yet, and you still have the cheek to ask them to pay. Do you think you're being reasonable?"

However, that woman was not someone meek. She did not show any sign of guilt even after being surrounded by so many people. Instead, she started to curse, angered by the things people said.

"Are you kidding me? He fell to the ground so suddenly that I couldn't stop in time. If he didn't fall to the ground, would I have rear-ended him? Instead of calling out the wrong party here, you're actually accusing me. Are you all nuts?"

Zhong Nuannuan huffed out a burst of angry laughter. "You mentioned rear-ending him yourself. Under traffic laws, if a person collided with someone they were tailgating, it's all their fault. Now, you've admitted to tailgating someone, so you're fully responsible! You deserve the broken electric-powered scooter. Initially, I wanted to help this grandfather subtly settle the matter, but since you're acting unreasonable, then fine. Now, I want you to compensate this grandfather for his mental trauma and shock. Also, since you frightened him, nobody knows if his blood pressure will peak or something. Everyone knows that the elderly are more prone to heart attacks and cerebral hemorrhage if their blood pressure increases. We can only be sure after an MRI scan in the hospital. A local MRI scan costs 700 yuan; two trips cost 1400yuan. Besides, there's also the payment for specialists, medicine prescription, and rides to the hospital. I'll give you a discount--you'll only have to pay 2000 yuan!"

"You... You're being unreasonable! What rear-end? I'm just using that as an analogy. I'm not a car. I can't believe you actually brought up traffic laws! Look clearly, this is an electric-powered scooter!"

"Who told you that electric-powered scooters are allowed to break traffic laws?"

"There's no such thing as tailgating for an electric-powered scooter!"

"Even if it's not a tailgating, this is still a collision with pedestrians. According to traffic laws, whether it's a motor or a non-motor vehicle, as long as you hit a pedestrian, you have to take full responsibility. If you don't believe me, I'll call the traffic police now. We'll see whether it's your fault or this grandfather's! At the same time, we'll have the traffic police watch you pay up."

"You... Just you wait!"

The woman panicked when she heard that Zhong Nuannuan wanted to bring in the traffic police and demand compensation from her. She started to leave after throwing that angry statement at Nuannuan.

She had only taken two steps when Zhong Nuannuan blocked her.

"What are you doing? I didn't even ask you to pay for damaging my scooter, and you're blocking my way. Are you trying to pick a fight?"

The woman's eyes widened into an intimidating glare as she swiped at her shirt, looking like she was about to hit Zhong Nuannuan.

"You're going to leave your scooter parts spilled all over the ground like that? The road is already narrow enough. If you're not picking up the pieces, who will?"

"Go away!"

Feeling embarrassed, the woman reached out to push Zhong Nuannuan away, but Zhong Nuannuan grabbed her instead.

With a light squeeze, the woman screamed like a pig being slaughtered.

"Let go! Let go! Let go! Ouch, it hurts!"

Zhong Nuannuan looked down at the woman and asked, "Are you going to clean up or not?"

"I will! I will! I'll clean up!"

The woman thought that she was very unlucky to have run into such a strong person. However, since she was a bully who would only bow down to power, she was scared senseless after that pinch from the strong woman.
