Before he could react, Su Cheng leaned in closer, whispering in his ear, "The words you said to me earlier, and your actions, did not meet management responsibilities. You have obviously violated the contract of parking management. I've recorded this on my phone. How much is the compensation for breach of contract?"
"You!"
The property manager looked at Su Cheng's phone, and his face turned ashen. He was filled with regret.
He thought he could easily brush off this young man, but it turned out Su Cheng was more thorny than anticipated. Now, with the recorded video, he could not even deny what he had done—the situation had turned dire.
"What did Su Cheng say to him?"
Xuan Ying in the crowd looked to Zhao Yan, who was holding up her phone recording the whole scene, after seeing the drastically changed expression on the property manager's face, she asked in confusion.
"I'm not sure, but it's clear that the property manager is irresponsible, intentionally protecting these homeowners because he saw Su Cheng as an easy target. It's infuriating."
Zhao Yan spoke with a frown, her gaze at the property manager filled with disgust. However, she did not lose her cool and continued to record the scene on her phone.
"But Su Cheng was right all along!"
"He must have been bribed."
"Why are these people like this?"
Xuan Ying did not understand. If she hadn't been with Su Cheng that day, she might never have encountered such an ordeal.
Why?
Why could people stoop so low and be so shameless?
Her values couldn't tolerate such immoral behavior that goes against right and wrong.
"These are typical bullies, targeting the weak and fearing the strong. Note them well, they start using reason, law, and procedure when they encounter someone stronger in order to protect themselves."
Zhao Yan continued with a frosty demeanor, "It's not that they don't understand rationality, they're just pursuing the most beneficial results for themselves. To maintain their unreasonable interests, they can ignore morality and even harm others maliciously."
Anger was apparent on Zhao Yan's face.
Listening to Zhao Yan's words, Xuan Ying began to understand that the world was not as beautiful as she had imagined. She nodded to express her understanding and her disgust for these people deepened as she made a mental note to avoid these kinds of people in the future.
"For an ordinary person like Su Cheng, life is like crossing the Zhaoguan Pass, hard to pass, yet one must overcome. "
At this, she looked at Su Cheng's figure, her eyes filled with complex emotions and sympathy. She then looked back to Xuan Ying and said self-deprecatingly, "We are luckier as we've passed this 'exam' since birth. Those born in poverty are destined to suffer. Su Cheng acknowledges his situation, knowing that resistance is futile and can't even bear the consequences of the aftermath. Therefore, he remains silent, letting them bully him. Perhaps he is accustomed to it, and it's just our luck that we happened to witness it today."
Hearing this, Xuan Ying felt a tremor in her heart, her sympathy for Su Cheng deepening. She had not anticipated Su Cheng to be so resilient and endure such treatment without arguing.
Despite being the same age, Su Cheng had nothing, not even the privilege to be capricious. But because of her affluent background, she had never experienced much setbacks or hardship growing up. When compared, there was a pain in her heart as if she was held high and then cruelly dropped down.
Just by following Su Cheng today, she received an unexpected lesson in reality, a course that schools don't teach, which had a significant impact on her.
………………
"Okay, I have to go now," she said.
Su Cheng glanced at the team leader of the property management in an awkward situation without intending to waste words, she turned to walk towards her bike.
In reality, he didn't have any videos; he just wanted to scare the property management leader.
"Where are you going, you brat?"
The old woman saw Su Cheng leaving and quickly blocked her way, roaring, "Apologize, now!"
However, Su Cheng just turned her head and looked at her indifferently.
The look in her eyes made her feel belittled, which led her to shaking with rage, she would have liked to pounce and tear Su Cheng apart.
Luckily, the property management and security guards arrived in time to restrain the old woman.
Su Cheng then leisurely rode off on her bike.
Although Su Cheng didn't apologize, everyone at the scene believed that he had caved.
Because he didn't persist in the parking spot being occupied, he left, he chose to evade, hence the situation wasn't resolved. His parking spot continued to be occupied, his actions indicated that anyone can use this parking spot.
"This kid is too young."
Someone in the crowd sighed and shook his head.
"No, it's not about age. It's about his nature being too timid. He will suffer a major disappointment someday if it continues like this."
A sigh filled the air, and the crowd became silent. In reality, they all knew that this was not a problem of young people, but no one wanted to interfere.
Hearing these words filled Xuan Ying with anger. She couldn't understand why these people could be so indifferent if only they had helped Su Cheng, the whole thing wouldnot have escalated like this, but seeing them all watching coldly, Xuan Ying's anger grew.
Fortunately, Zhao Yan pulled her away. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to control herself.
As for the car owner who parked in Su Cheng's spot showed a victorious smile, feeling triumphant inside: "Hmph, you wanted to fight with me?"
"Let go of me, I want that brat to kneel down and apologize to me!"
The old woman who was restrained by the security guards couldn't break free from the young guards, she kept shouting in frustration.
The property leader's face was full of uncertainty. He was threatened, and there was something on him that the other party could use.
This made him dare not act rashly, he even knew that the problem was far from over because this kid was by no means as simple as he appeared.
…………………………
Su Cheng rode her bike out of the apartment gates. She was not escaping but planning a severe retaliation. Only by retaliating fiercely could she feel satisfied. Otherwise, she would always feel oppressed, and she would never be happy.
He knew he couldn't let it go and understood that staying in the car park would only result in self-imposed misery.
Because he knew that even if he was in the right, no one would support him.
But he was not afraid, because he was ready.
In fact, he is a principled, rational person, but when dealing with those who are irrational and boundless, he can abandon all moral and legal constraints in a minute, becoming even more ruthless.
