Chapter 490 Triple Compensation
The waiter smiled wryly, "Madam, why are you forcing me? Just take some money and leave. Why do you insist on making us resort to violence?"
"You'll know once you try." Du Mingxian wasn't afraid at all, her eyes filled with a broad smile.
Seeing that he couldn't persuade them, the waiter turned around and shouted outside, "Come in and throw them out the back door of the inn." After giving the order, he didn't forget to say to Du Mingxian and the others, "You really think you're human when you try to persuade them to leave."
When Du Mingxian saw two burly men enter through the door, who looked like thugs, she wasn't afraid. Instead, she asked, "You want them to throw us out? Aren't you afraid we'll go make a scene in front?"
"Then go ahead and make a scene, and see if they listen to you."
"If we report this to the authorities, aren't you afraid we'll cause trouble? Aren't you afraid we'll report this to the authorities?"
"Haha, go ahead then. Do you really think we're just running this shop for nothing?" The waiter looked completely unconcerned.
Du Mingxian stopped talking nonsense. The two thugs approached step by step. Before she could make a move, Dong Shi took a decorative vase from the side and put it in her hand.
She shielded Du Mingxian with her arms, watching the two men slowly approaching warily. "Don't come any closer. If you do, I won't be polite. I'm not an ordinary woman. I survived by hunting in the mountains. I have plenty of strength."
The two thugs were tall and strong. They weren't afraid of the thin Du Mingxian, but they took Dong Shi somewhat seriously, though not with much concern.
In their eyes, they were all women anyway, so what trouble could they possibly cause?
Du Mingxian looked at Dong Shi with surprise, noticing that Dong Shi was trembling with nervousness but showed no sign of backing down.
"I……"
“You take Chengbao and go, I’ll stay here.”
"Your own grandson is your responsibility; I don't care."
Madam Dong knew that Du Mingxian was saying it on purpose. She could tell that this girl was kind-hearted. If something really happened to her today, this girl would definitely not sit idly by.
As they were talking, two burly men approached and reached out to grab Dong Shi. Instantly, Du Mingxian produced a dagger and stabbed it directly at the outstretched hand of one of the men. Her movements were swift.
The two men simultaneously reached out their hands, and she swiftly stabbed both of them in the palms, the dagger piercing through their hands, blood spurting out.
Dong was standing in front of it. When the blood splattered, she instinctively closed her eyes. She only felt something splash on her face, warm and slightly fishy.
"Ah..." Two men shouted instantly. The waiter, who had just been wearing a smug smile, was immediately dumbfounded. When he saw that Du Mingxian dared to injure him, and with such a quick and ruthless method, he knew that this matter had gotten out of hand.
His legs were so weak, but he took each step with remarkable steadiness. He ran downstairs quickly and stood before his employer. Though nervous, he managed to articulate clearly, “Those two women upstairs hurt someone.”
The owner also heard the thugs' shouts, and his face had already turned sour. He ignored the waiter and quickly went upstairs.
Du Mingxian injured someone, so instead of using the dagger in her spatial storage, she held it in her hand. However, she was disgusted that her dagger was still stained with that person's blood.
She turned around, took a handkerchief from a shelf provided by the inn for its guests, and gently wiped her knife clean.
Madam Dong was already terrified and her legs went weak, but she didn't scream. Instead, she kept shaking her hands and gently wiping the blood off her face. Although she was flustered, she managed to stay upright.
Seeing her frightened look, Du Mingxian stepped forward and helped her sit down on the edge of the bed. "Sit down and wait. The innkeeper should be here soon."
Without saying a word, Dong reached out and snatched the dagger from Du Mingxian's hand, taking it for herself. She then lowered her voice and said, "When they come over, just say I'm the one who hurt them."
"Huh?" Du Mingxian didn't understand.
"I'm the one who hurt him, it has nothing to do with you."
Du Mingxian turned her head to look at the two men who had injured their hands and were lying on the ground clutching their hands and groaning. She thought to herself, "Do you really think these two men are dead?"
She didn't explain anything.
Just then, the owner walked in and looked first at the two burly men lying on the ground. His lips twitched, and he ordered the waiter who had followed him, "Quickly call someone to carry them away and get a doctor to treat them."
"Yes." The waiter immediately went to find someone.
Upon hearing that the owners had asked them to treat him, the two burly men stopped lying on the ground howling and quickly got up to follow the waiter outside.
The landlord looked at Du Mingxian expressionlessly, "The guest injured my people for no reason. How do you want this settled?"
"On your own? Didn't you want to kick us out and refuse to pay compensation? When your soft approach failed, you tried the hard one, but we were even harder, so now you want to strike first?"
"Fine, so your people tried to take advantage of me and my aunt, two women. Our safety was in danger in your shop. No matter where we go to complain, we are in the right."
Faced with Du Mingxian's tough attitude and words, the landlord was truly surprised and speechless. In the end, he could only say helplessly, "You have more than an hour left before it's time to check out. We are willing to compensate you for leaving early, but in the end, you are too greedy and want to compensate us for everything."
"No, we demand triple compensation." Du Mingxian held up one finger, smiling happily, but her words were also infuriating. "Your time hasn't come yet, and your store wants us to leave. This is a breach of contract on your part, and you should compensate us."
“It’s not like you can do whatever you want or pay whatever amount you want. You even tried to use force just now. You’d be better off paying three times the compensation.”
"Or you want to make a big fuss about this. Anyway... we have nothing to lose. Chengbao is in good health, but he got a fever after staying at your place for one night. Your place must be unclean. If word gets out, will anyone still want to stay at your place?"
The boss was really annoyed by Du Mingxian, and finally understood why Xiao Er always came back with a bitter face after communicating with her. It seemed that he would have to admit defeat today.
Unexpectedly, both women turned out to be tough.
How is your child's fever?
Du Mingxian immediately put on a sad expression, "The fever was very high, and the doctor said a few words of comfort, but giving me medicine was just a form of comfort."
Upon hearing this, the owner immediately became anxious. The person must be burning up badly and couldn't die in his shop. Otherwise, who would want to stay there in the future?
"I'm willing to compensate you for the money you spent last night."
"That won't do. You say it's three times, so it's three times. Or do you want more?"
"Fine, three times it is." The owner just wanted these two people to leave with the feverish, dead child as soon as possible, so they wouldn't bring him bad luck.
