Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 917

Roy let out a deep grunt as he looked at the two figures vanishing into the distance. He said, "The poor are really unwise. They don't know what's best for them."

Shinnie soft-heartedly admonished him, "Roy, don't say that. The incident is actually our fault, and we were the ones who instigated it."

Roy pursed his lips. He did not agree completely with Shinnie, but he did not argue with her. Instead, he looked towards Fade and complimented, "Mr. Chen, you are truly bold. With only one move, you have managed to send them running with their tails between their legs, you are..."

Fade waved his hand dismissively, stopping Roy mid-sentence. He furrowed his brows and said, "Go and inform the others. I don't think things are as simple as they seem."

"There's more to it?" Roy was confused, but immediately said with disdain, "Are they so bold that they would come back for revenge? Then we..."

However, before he could finish, Shinnie shot Roy a sharp look. Roy went silent instantly. Turning around, he went to inform the others.

Soon, Roy ran over, panting. He looked panicked and said, "Shinnie, Mr. Chen, bad news, bad news..."

"Roy, what's wrong?" Shinnie inquired.

"Over there, the villagers are heading towards us."

"What? They're here again? This, this..." Shinnie was a little flustered.

Roy continued, "This time, they brought reinforcements. There are over a hundred people. The whole village is after us. All of them have pitchforks and poles in hand, saying they want to avenge the farmer who was sent flying. We don't know how to deal with them."

"What..." Shinnie was dumbfounded. She did not expect the situation to escalate to such a great extent.

Fade frowned and said immediately, "Let's go take a look."

When they arrived, it was already chaotic.

Hundreds of villagers rushed over, clamoring. They were riled up emotionally, shouting demands for justice and revenge.

The members of the Sun family gathered up, blocking their advance.

Although there were only about twenty people in the Sun family, most of them were at least in the middle-stage of the Yellow Level. They had no problems dealing with the farmers.

However, as Fade had imposed strict rules for the Sun family, they did not dare to fight back. Hence, they could only passively endure as they blocked the onslaught.

When Fade arrived, Sam glanced and pointed at Fade, and shouted, "It's him! He was the one who beat me up. Get him!"

Suddenly, a cry sounded from the back.

"Let us avenge Sam!"

"How dare you beat my brother. I will kill you!"

"Don't think that you people from the city can go about doing anything you please. We are not pushovers!"

"You must give us an explanation, otherwise, this matter will not end well."

The crowd was raging. The members of Sun family were already a little overwhelmed by them.

Upon seeing this, Fade frowned and walked over. Emanating strong positive energy, he shouted furiously at the crowd, "Everyone, calm down."

Shocked at Fade's outburst, everyone calmed down momentarily.

Fade looked around and coldly looked at the villagers, saying, "This was but a small matter. Please don't overreact. Don't go overboard or else you will regret it."

Just as he finished speaking, Sam started shouting, "Overreact? Overreacting is when you kicked me. Is it because we are farmers that you think you can bully us whenever you wish?"

With his shout, the villagers were riled up once again and began to shout one after another.

Fade's gaze was icy as he stared at Sam. With a stern shout, he said, "The reason why I'm attacking you is that you tried to slash a young girl with a sickle. A man using weapons to threaten a young girl, is it not natural that I defended her?"

"Huh, tweaking the truth like a pro. If it wasn't for you stopping us from passing through in the first place, would I go to such lengths?" Sam chided fiercely. He then turned around and shouted to the villagers, "You heard it yourself. That's the attitude of these city people. They blocked our path on our very own mountain and tried to hit us. What kind of logic is this? Today, we will teach you a lesson."

In an instant, the crowd boiled with fury

"Yes, we need an explanation!"

"What's the deal of being rich? How dare he bully us?"

"We support Sam. We need an explanation. We need an apology."

The situation was gradually getting out of hand. Shinnie anxiously looked at Fade, "Brother Chen, I'll go call grandma. She may know the old man here."

"Alright, but please, hurry," Fade nodded. Shinnie quickly ran back to inform Francesca.

Meanwhile, Fade's eyes narrowed as he said, "I hope everyone can calm down. Let's sit down and discuss this like civilized people. I'm sure we can come to an agreeable decision."

Roy chimed in, "It's not a big deal. We will compensate. One thousand for each person. Is it enough? If it's not enough, five thousand for each person. Is it okay?"

Money was indeed very persuasive, more so when everyone was offered a big fat stack of 5000 yuan each. Many villagers' eyes lit up, and their expressions changed to one of hunger. In an instant, the chaotic atmosphere calmed down drastically.

However, Sam narrowed his eyes and a glint flashed across them. He shouted, "Don't be fooled, everyone. These city people are very cunning. They said they'll give us money, but we will not receive a single penny as soon as they leave."

"This..." The murmurs of doubt and suspicion rustled over the crowd like a breeze through a meadow.

His confidence growing, Sam continued, "Think about it. Even if they were to compensate us today, sooner or later they will hire a lawyer and sue us. There's no reason forthem to compensate us, they're obviously setting us up!"

Hearing his words, the villagers who were captivated by the money instantly came to their senses.

What's more, they grew even more furious. They shouted angrily, weapon in their hands, demanding to teach Fade a lesson.

"Liars. They're all liars."

"Are you bullying us for being uncultured? Let's beat them up and see if they still dare to bully us."

"Let's attack together and teach them a lesson."

Looking at the raging crowd, Fade narrowed his eyes, and his gaze fell on Sam as a hint of doubt and suspicion flashed through him.
