From Sidekick to Bigshot

As the family was trying to deal with the other Internet celebrity, the police arrived.

It turned out that Jian Yiling not only contacted the Internet celebrity but also reported the matter to the police.

As soon as the police arrived, the old lady’s family members instantly settled down.

“Umm… Mr. Policeman, we didn’t do anything wrong. My mother was pushed down… We merely wanted the other party to give us compensation,” the old lady’s eldest son hurriedly explained.

“That’s right. There should be nothing wrong with asking for compensation, right?” the eldest son’s wife asked.

“Your mother hasn’t even broken a bone and you’re asking for a hundred thousand dollars as compensation?” the policeman replied.

“About this…”

The old lady’s family members did not dare to look at the police.

“Well now, you guys are involved in extortion and blackmail,” the police said.

Upon hearing these words, the faces of the old lady’s family members became even more ugly.

“What? Extortion and blackmail? Is it that serious?” the old lady’s youngest son exclaimed. His eyes were widened with surprise.

“What do you think? Is it normal for people to just ask for a hundred thousand dollars? Furthermore, you stopped people from leaving.”

“But… But… My mother is in the hospital… It’s totally normal for us to ask for compensation. Mr. Policeman, my mother is still lying in the hospital bed! Her entire body aches. She’s still not well. We were just worried about her health,” the eldest son attempted to explain.

“It’s reasonable for you to ask for compensation. However, it’s not reasonable to ask for a hundred thousand dollars before the examination results come out,” the policeman replied.

The old lady’s family members showed expressions of surprise and horror when they heard this.

Was this a crime?

“We weren’t trying to extort them! We were just calculating everything just in case our mother ended up suffering from paralysis! Furthermore, if we have to look after our mother, we added up the cost of our salaries and wages. My youngest brother is an Internet celebrity, he can earn thousands of dollars every day!”

“That’s right. Even if there are problems with our calculation, they should tell us that it’s a problem!”

The old lady’s family hurriedly attempted to explain the situation. They wanted to brush off the charge of extortion.

“Well, further investigation will be required,” the policeman replied.

Upon hearing this, their faces turned pale. They had no idea what to do.

However, Jian Yiling was no longer interested in watching. And thus, An Yang gave the policeman their contact details just in case they needed to cooperate with the investigation.

After that, Jian Yiling and the others left the hospital. As Hu Jiaojiao had been crying, her eyes were still a little red.

However, she had recovered some of her previous energy.

She began to ramble to Jian Yiling: “Before I do a good deed in the future, I will remember to take pictures and leave evidence! I won’t give them an opportunity to extort me! Thank you for helping me today. Otherwise, I would have only been crying. An Yang isn’t useful either! He just uses violence. We nearly became the side without reason.”

An Yang: “I will learn from my Boss. From now on, instead of using my fists, I will use my brain!”

Upon hearing this, Hu Jiaojiao said quietly: “That’s a good idea. However, I don’t know how good your brain is. After all, there’s a big gap between Jian Yiling’s IQ and yours.”

An Yang quietly reminded his girlfriend: “Jiaojiao, please don’t bruise my ego like this…”

Hu Jiaojiao: “But… Does your ego even exist in front of Yiling…”

An Yang: “…”
