Chapter 1793: Xu Baohan Fights for Her
“You’re right, so I’ve decided to hit him,” Xu Baohan said as he raised his fist and punched Chen Ke in the face.
A man’s fist was far stronger than a woman’s palm.
Chen Ke fell to the ground, his nose bleeding.
However, before he knew what happened, Xu Baohan grabbed him by the collar and threw him a few more punches.
An Lan was stunned. Xu Baohan was tall, but she didn’t expect him to be such a good fighter. Chen Ke just couldn’t block his punches.
However, what surprised her even more was that Xu Baohan would hit people for her. After all, they weren’t that close. He could just send Chen Ke away. There was no need to hit him. He was a judge and people would think that he was bullying others.
The beating shocked the pa.s.sersby. The KTV security guard and manager immediately rushed over to stop him. The manager tried to smooth things over, but Chen Ke was angry and insisted that he was not in the wrong and wanted to call the police. He even said that Xu Baohan was bullying others because he was a judge.
The onlookers pointed at Xu Baohan and started talking among themselves.
“I heard he’s a judge. No wonder he’s so arrogant.”
“The judge has power, right? So he thinks he can get away with it no matter what he does.”
“Judges are powerful. There’s no justice in this world.”
Xu Baohan was unruffled when he heard the comments and said to Chen Ke, “I did hit you, but if you say that I’m using my power to bully you, then that’s a slander against a public official. You used to study law, so you don’t need me to tell you the consequences.”
Chen Ke sobered up and chuckled. “You’re saying that I’m slandering you. What evidence do you have?”
Xu Baohan turned to look at An Lan. “Lawyer An, someone as cautious as you should have a recording of the incident, right?”
An Lan looked at him in surprise, then smiled. “Indeed.”
Then she turned on the speaker so everyone could hear Chen Ke’s words from beginning to end. The onlookers immediately glared at Chen Ke, especially the women. “How shameless he is. How can a man be so low?”
“Oh my G.o.d, this has really refreshed my understanding of sc.u.mbags.”
“Does he think that having a Porsche is that impressive?”
“…”
The table was suddenly turned. Chen Ke wished he could crawl into a hole in the ground and shouted, “I was drunk just now.”
Xu Baohan clenched his fists. He had only heard the second half of the hara.s.sment. It turned out Chen Ke had said so many harsh words before he came. He had really gone too easy on this guy.
He picked Chen Ke up and said coldly, “One speaks the truth when he gets drunk. Besides, I don’t think you’re drunk at all. You only drank to embolden yourself to speak your mind, but these words of yours completely const.i.tute an insult and s.e.xual hara.s.sment. Not only were you verbally attacking her, you also physically hara.s.sed her. It’s enough to have you detained.”
Ignoring the pain in his face, Chen Ke hurriedly said, “When did I physically hara.s.s her?”
He knew that as long as there was no physical hara.s.sment, his punishment wouldn’t be too severe.
“My hand.” An Lan raised her left hand. “It’s red from being grabbed by you. This is physical contact. The police will take it as evidence when we get to the police station later.”
“You’re simply lying,” Chen Ke roared.
“You’re wrong. Lawyers will never make a statement without evidence.” An Lan smiled lightly, “You were a law student and you forgot never to mess with a lawyer. Maybe you’ve made some money and get forgetful. It’s okay, I’ll refresh your memory.”
She dialed 110. When she waited for the line to get through, she said to Chen Ke, “By the way, do you think driving a Porsche is awesome? I have a Ferrari at home, but I think lawyers should keep a low profile occasionally, so I basically don’t drive it.”
