Signing In At The Civil Affairs Bureau, I Was Rewarded With A Gorgeous Wife

"Who are you? And in what capacity are you speaking to me?"

The elderly person glanced up at Song Yun with some disdain.

After all, in her eyes, Song Yun was just a youngster, too green to handle matters properly.

"I am the owner of this car."

Song Yun, noticing the contempt in the other party's eyes, said, "There are security cameras in the parking lot; we can just wait for the 4S shop to assess the damages."

"You?"

The elderly person was still somewhat incredulous but seeing Huang Baoding standing respectfully before the other, half of their doubt faded away.

"I've looked it over. My grandson doesn't have the strength to make a deep scratch. Let's settle this privately. I'll give you a thousand yuan, and we'll call it even."

The elderly person spoke haughtily, "You're young. Don't always believe what others tell you. As for that car of yours, it would cost at most three hundred at an outside repair shop. Consider the remaining seven hundred a subsidy from me."

"Her grandson scratched that car?"

Song Yun asked Huang Baoding in a quiet voice.

"A customized Rolls Royce, made with top-tier technology... It's a special edition..."

Huang Baoding frowned slightly as he said, "I drove it back myself when it was ready. The total price was over thirty-seven million."

"How much??"

Upon hearing the number, the elderly person's eyes widened, and pointing at Huang Baoding's nose, they scolded, "Don't think I can't understand cars because I'm old! Special edition, pah!"

"General Song, the paint on this car was custom-mixed by Rolls Royce's top designers; any scratch requires replacing the paint for the whole car."

Expressing his difficulty, Huang Baoding said, "Moreover, it has to be sent back to the headquarters for repair."

"What a piece of junk!"

The elderly person yelled angrily, "You rich people just want to swindle money from us poor folks! Putting such an expensive car in a parking lot... who would've known it costs that much!"

"Old man, what car we buy and where we park it, that's our freedom, right? If it weren't for your grandson intentionally damaging the car, we wouldn't even be discussing compensation."

Song Yun said indifferently, "Moreover, when you bring your grandson out to play, shouldn't you watch your own child?"

"What I do with my child is none of your business! You rich folks always have your quirks!"

The elderly person ranted on their tiptoes, "I think you're just trying to scam us! You probably made your money this way!"

"Now that's an unnecessary remark."

Huang Baoding spoke irritably, "As the guardian of the child, you have the duty to watch over him and prevent him from doing such unlawful things."

"Are you saying I didn't raise my child properly? And who the hell are you?"

The elderly person, beside themselves with anger, stormed up to Huang Baoding and shouted, "How I raise my child is none of your business! Young man, better mind your own! What, you want to get physical? I have a bunch of old folks' illnesses. You just try and touch me!"

"You... are unreasonable!"

If a young person had dared to talk to Huang Baoding like this, they would've already received a punch!

But the fact remained that the person was an elder, and they were perhaps provoking him on purpose, hoping to extort some medical expenses!

"Brother Huang! I didn't hold up anything, did I?"

A salesman in a suit hurried over with a briefcase in hand.

"No, they're all here."

Huang Baoding spoke with a dark expression, "This is our General Song."

"General Song! I've long respected your reputation; it's just that you're usually busy with official business and we can't easily meet!"

The salesman spoke respectfully, "I'm the service staffer responsible for assessing our vehicle's damages. You can just call me Xiao Tang."

"Hmm, let's go check out the car first."

Song Yun got up and walked towards the exit.

"Brother Huang, is Boss Song in a bad mood?"

Xiao Tang asked quietly.

"It's all caused by that old woman behind this."

Huang Baoding said anxiously, "This car was just picked up and hasn't been driven more than twice, and now it needs to go back to the factory for repairs. Anybody would be in a bad mood."

"Yes, yes, yes, in a moment I'll check out the specifics. Don't worry, Boss Song is a super VIP in our store, and our damage assessment will also tend to..."

"Shut up! Be fair. Whatever the cost should be, that's what it should be. We don't need to tarnish our reputation over this amount of money!"

Huang Baoding said, banging his fist, "But the compensation that needs to be paid must not be a penny short!"

"Yes, yes, yes…"

The salesman wiped the sweat from his forehead.

It makes sense, after all, Boss Song is the richest man in Magic Capital. He probably earns enough in one day to buy several of these cars. And it would be improper to let such an incident become a public joke over a mere few hundred thousand.

They arrived at the parking lot, and Song Yun stood in front of his car to see a mark stretching from the front to the tail of the car on its right side!

Such a long scratch would probably require replacing the whole thing.

There was no helping it.

"My God, this long???"

Xiao Tang swallowed, touching the scratch with his finger in shock, "With my years of experience, this looks like it was made by a key... Let me check elsewhere…"

After going around the car, he found only one mark and felt somewhat relieved. Thankfully the scratch wasn't deep, just spending a million or two to repaint the whole surface should do. If it had been deeper, they might have had to replace the entire right side of the body!

But after going around the vehicle... something seemed to be missing...

He stroked his chin, took another round, and then stood in front of the car, suddenly hitting the air and yelled, "Fuck!!! Where the hell is the little golden statue???"

"Where is this car's little golden statue???"

"Huh?"

It was only then that Huang Baoding noticed that the little golden statue, which used to stand proudly at the front of the car, was gone!

He bent down and saw it had been snapped off!

"Brother Huang... this is serious... The little golden statue is the soul of this car. It's been broken off, so we'll need to replace the lifting system too, and just that little golden statue alone is worth hundreds of thousands!"

Xiao Tang said gloomily, "This will probably require major repairs at the factory!"

Suddenly, everyone's gaze shifted towards the elderly person and the child.

The elderly person shielded their grandchild behind them protectively.

"Why are you looking at us! We didn't do this!"

The elder yelled with a frown, "I told you, this car was parked in the wrong place, and now it's backfired!"

"Check the surveillance!"

Song Yun gave the command, and Huang Baoding hurried off to the security booth to pull up the surveillance footage.

The child was seen, while the elder wasn't paying attention, taking out a key from their little backpack and scratching a big line on the car. Then seeing the little golden statue, they reached out to snap it off. Perhaps because they didn't have enough strength, it didn't break off at first.

Immediately after, they kicked the front of the car, grabbed the little golden statue with both hands, and yanked it fiercely!

With a "snap", the child fell on their backside, got up, rubbed themselves, and put the little golden statue inside their backpack!

There was the evidence!

"Boss Song, we've verified it, they did it with the little golden statue!"

"Are you trying to frame us? I have my connections too. If you dare to extort us, be careful or I'll sue you!"
