Chapter 149: Chapter 149 Inverting Black and White

Onlookers all turned pale and quickly scurried away.

"Bald Liu has gone mad, everyone run!"

Guo Sujuan’s pupils shrank. She turned around and looked at the children, "Quick, hide inside the yard!"

A group of frightened children ran into the welfare institute.

Guo Sujuan then looked at Chen Fan, urgently saying, "Chen Fan, you need to leave fast!"

Chen Fan remained stationary and said to Shen Lingdie, "Take Dean Guo away from here."

Shen Lingdie nodded, pulling Guo Sujuan to the side to walk away.

Guo Sujuan was agitated, "Make Chen Fan get out of the way, Bald Liu is ruthless, he will really run it over!"

Shen Lingdie glanced at Chen Fan, "He will be alright."

Seeing Chen Fan show no reaction, everyone kept shaking their heads.

"Did that young man get scared silly? Why isn’t he running away quickly?"

"Ah, what a pity. Nowadays, acting heroically might not end well."

"Being rolled over by such a huge excavator would probably crush someone into a meat patty, right?"

...

Seeing Chen Fan staying still, Bald Liu began to laugh crazily, "Idiot! You think I wouldn’t dare to hit you? Today, I’ll let you see just how fierce I, Bald Liu, am!"

The excavator bore down on Chen Fan with increasing speed.

Chen Fan’s face was calm, and Spiritual Power surged from the palm of his hand.

The moment the excavator was about to hit him, he clenched his fist to gather strength, then swung out a punch, and a gust of wind howled forth.

Bang!

The crowd was so shocked that their scalps tingled and they quickly covered their ears.

When they came to their senses and looked forward again, they saw the excavator had been forced to stop in place, and a huge dent at the front was striking to behold.

Chen Fan was still standing firmly in place, not having moved an inch.

This steel-constructed modern industrial machine seemed as fragile as a paper model in front of Chen Fan.

Everyone was stunned.

There was silence throughout the venue for a good while.

"Is this... still a human?" many people took a sharp breath.

Guo Sujuan stared blankly at the scene, swallowing hard.

With excitement and pride, Shen Lingdie looked at Guo Sujuan, "Handsome, right? My future husband."

Because of the violent impact, Bald Liu passed out in the cab of the excavator.

At this time, a middle-aged man dressed in a suit who was watching the excitement couldn’t contain himself anymore.

He walked up to Chen Fan, constantly apologizing with a smile, "Bro, I am the general manager of Beautiful Properties. The land for this welfare institute was acquired by me and Baldy together. You must be the legendary Martial Arts Master, right? Baldy was a bit impulsive with his actions, please don’t take it personally."

"However, we did indeed obtain the permit. I’ll show it to you right now."

As he spoke, the middle-aged man took out a document from his briefcase and handed it to Chen Fan.

Chen Fan took a look and frowned involuntarily.

The document indeed had a seal on it and did not appear to be fake.

Guo Sujuan came over, and Chen Fan passed the document to her, "Dean Guo, it seems their paperwork is real."

Guo Sujuan’s expression drastically changed, "Impossible! The welfare institute has been officially approved, how could it suddenly need to be demolished?"

The middle-aged man said with a smile, "I understand how you feel, but this is sensible planning. Institutions like orphanages that contribute nothing to GDP growth should have been phased out long ago."

Guo Sujuan suddenly panicked, "Then what about these children of mine? Are you saying they should become homeless?"

The middle-aged man said, "As for this matter, our company can offer ten thousand yuan as compensation, which I believe is quite generous."

Chen Fan’s face turned cold, "Ten thousand yuan? Are you trying to dismiss a beggar?"

The middle-aged man chuckled, "Ten thousand yuan is already generous of our company. And to speak bluntly, what’s the difference between them and beggars?"

Chen Fan clenched his fist.

The middle-aged man quickly took two steps back, holding his briefcase in front of him, "Don’t think that just because you can fight you can act recklessly, I’ve already shown you enough respect."

Then he snatched the documents from Guo Sujuan’s hands and displayed them to everyone, "Everyone take a good look, we have the legal procedures in place. It’s them who are being stubborn and hindering our demolition, even trying to make exorbitant demands, it’s utterly despicable!"

He pointed at Chen Fan, "This guy here even used force to injure our people, what he did is definitely criminal, such a social tumor should be arrested!"

The crowd began murmuring among themselves.

"So they do have legal documentation; the young man here was in the wrong then."

"These people from the orphanage aren’t any good either, blocking the demolition because they obviously want to extort money."

"Tsk tsk, the morals of society are truly declining, to use a bunch of kids to create trouble for money, it’s just shameless."

...

Guo Sujuan kept shaking her head, "No... it’s not like what you all think!"

Shen Lingdie was furious, "This guy is so despicable."

Chen Fan’s brows were tightly furrowed, as the situation had developed beyond his expectations.

The middle-aged man smirked, "Little guy, you’re still too green to compete with me!"

He gave a look to a man in the crowd.

The man nodded slightly and then shouted, "Since they have the legal paperwork, stop obstructing the demolition. If we let people like you extort money at will, wouldn’t society be in chaos?"

The onlookers nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, stop making a fuss and clear out."

"I felt sympathy for them for a moment, but it turns out they were just trying to extort money, what a loss of conscience!"

...

Guo Sujuan turned pale, and tears couldn’t help but flow down.

"I’ve never extorted anyone’s money; I just wanted to give the children a home. Why does a good orphanage suddenly have to be demolished?"

Shen Lingdie tugged at Chen Fan’s sleeve, "What should we do now?"

Chen Fan felt helpless, "If his document is legitimate, we really don’t have grounds to stop them from demolishing."

The middle-aged man walked up to the three of them, a cold smile on his face, "Stop getting in the way. You’ve also seen the seal on the document; that can only be stamped with the city leader’s approval."

Chen Fan stared at him coldly, "But the existence of the orphanage was also approved by the city leader. Why does it have to be demolished now?"

The middle-aged man sneered, "This just goes to show that the orphanage has been weeded out! It means that the city leader has already given up on such a meaningless institution. Stop making such unreasonable trouble here!"

Chen Fan was angered but powerless.

Just then, a deep voice rose among the crowd.

"When did I ever say that the orphanage was to be eliminated?"

"On the contrary, I’ve never seen the document in your hand before; who stamped that seal for you?"

The crowd turned their heads.

Jiang Mingzhe rode up on an old-fashioned bicycle and stopped before the crowd, walking towards the middle-aged man and Chen Fan with a cold expression.
