Chapter 214 The Liuli incident was successfully resolved
The stranger was picking up the glass balls on the stall very reluctantly. Every time he picked up one, it felt like cutting his flesh, and the pain on his face became more and more obvious.
As he cleaned up, he kept muttering, "What bad luck! How could I fall into the hands of this young lady?"
Su Panpan stood aside, with her arms folded across her chest, staring intently at the stranger, not giving him any chance to cheat.
The crowd around was growing larger and larger, and everyone stretched their necks to see what was going on.
Just when the stranger was about to pack up all the glass balls to fulfill his bet, suddenly, a burly man rushed in from outside the crowd.
The man was over eight feet tall, with a broad back and strong arms, and his clothes were bulging with muscular muscles.
His face was covered in flesh, and his eyes were as fierce as a hungry wolf. As soon as he came in, he shouted, "What are you all doing here? You're making so much noise, are you going to let us do our business?"
Everyone was startled by the sudden roar and turned to look.
The man walked straight towards the stranger and grabbed his arm with such force that he almost fell down.
He asked in a gruff voice, "Brother, what's going on? Who bullied you? Tell me, and I'll help you!"
When the stranger saw this man, a glimmer of hope suddenly flashed in his eyes, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw. He hurriedly said, "Brother, you are here! I was tricked by this young lady. I made a bet with her and now I have lost. I have to give all these glass balls to her. I worked so hard to get them, and now they are gone. How can I live?"
As he spoke, he squeezed out a few tears and pretended to look pitiful.
As he spoke, he pointed at Su Panpan, his eyes full of grievance and resentment.
After hearing this, the big man frowned and shot a lightning-like gaze at Su Panpan.
He first looked Su Panpan up and down with disdain in his eyes, and then said viciously: "Young lady, my brother has always been honest. Are you relying on your own little skills to bully him? This bet is invalid. Leave quickly and don't make trouble here!"
As he spoke, he waved his big hand like a palm-leaf fan, as if he was demonstrating. It seemed that he would take action if Su Panpan dared to say no.
Su Panpan, however, was not afraid at all. She raised her chin, met the big man's gaze with a firm look, and said, "Humph, don't listen to his nonsense. He was the one who started the bet. So many people here can testify to this. How can he just say it's invalid? If you want to bully others by taking advantage of your power, it won't be that easy!"
The people around also echoed: "That's right, that's right, the outsider wants to cheat after losing the bet, and now he's even looking for help. How shameless!"
When the big man heard this, his expression suddenly became even uglier. He roared in anger, "You guys are such a bunch of fools. You dare to go against me? I'm going to teach you a lesson today!"
As he said this, he waved his fists and rushed towards the crowd.
The fist created a whistling sound, which showed that the big man was really angry. His aggressive look made people around him feel afraid.
The crowd was suddenly in a panic and everyone retreated back, fearing that they would be hit by the big man.
Su Panpan was also a little nervous, but she knew that she couldn't retreat at this time, so she took a deep breath and prepared to face this sudden change.
Shen Ru held Su Panpan's hand tightly and said fearfully, "Panpan, don't mess with them. Let's go, or we won't be able to beat them!"
At this critical moment, a loud shout was heard: "Stop!"
Two men in official uniforms came hurriedly, they were Gou Sheng and Jiang Er.
Jiang Er is thin, but he looks capable. His eyes are small but shrewd.
Gou Sheng is a sturdy man with an honest look, but he is decisive when doing things.
It turned out that the manager of the market heard that a lot of people had gathered here for a long time and were afraid that something big might happen, so he reported it to the county government. The county magistrate quickly sent them over to check the situation.
As soon as the big man saw the police coming, he stopped being so presumptuous and stopped what he was doing.
Gou Sheng walked forward, took a look at the situation, frowned, and asked, "What's going on? Why are you gathering here to cause trouble?"
Su Panpan hurried forward and explained the whole story in detail.
The stranger still wanted to quibble, but the people around him also stood up to testify that the stranger lost the bet and wanted to cheat, and even found helpers to threaten everyone.
Jiang Er listened from the side and nodded from time to time. He knew Su Panpan very well and knew that she would not make things difficult for others for no reason.
Gou Sheng's face darkened when he heard this, and he said to the stranger, "Since you made the bet yourself, you must honor it. Don't even think about cheating, and don't even think about finding someone to cause trouble, or I will not let you off easily!"
When the stranger heard this, he immediately became like a deflated ball, hanging his head and daring not to say a word.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the big man turned around and left in shame, fearing that he would be implicated.
Gou Sheng then said to Su Panpan, "Madam Su, this matter is over. Please keep your glass ball and don't cause any more trouble."
Su Panpan thanked the official and then proudly took the glass balls from the strangers.
He turned around and said to the people around him, "Everyone saw it. This is the result of cheating. Don't bet with others easily in the future!"
Everyone smiled and nodded, and they were even more impressed by Su Panpan.
Shen Ru also said happily, "Now they are all completely subdued."
The stranger dejectedly gathered up the remaining fragments, stuffed them into a bundle, put it on his back and ran away in a hurry. His back looked indescribably embarrassed, and he kept looking back as he walked, as if afraid that someone would catch up with him.
Su Panpan looked at him running away and couldn't help but snort, her face full of disdain.
At this time, Gou Sheng and Jiang Er were also preparing to go back and report.
Gou Sheng smiled and said to Su Panpan, "Madam Su, today's matter has finally been resolved satisfactorily. However, you must be more careful in the future and don't run into such a dishonest person again."
Jiang Erze nodded in agreement, "Yes, Madam Su, your glass objects are all exquisite and attract everyone's attention. You must be careful not to let anyone get their eyes on them."
Su Panpan quickly responded with a smile, "Thank you for your concern, officers. I will be careful. It's also thanks to you guys that you arrived in time today, otherwise who knows what would have happened."
Gou Sheng and Jiang Er didn't leave far away.
"Second uncle, I'm here to see the two officials off. Please help me look after them." Su Panpan asked Shen Ru to help her look after the glass objects.
