"Damn! Who's making all that noise? Can't anyone get some sleep around here!" Xu Qingfan irritably removed the black clothing that was covering his eyes and opened the bedroom window to look down at the courtyard below.
In the courtyard on the first floor, groups of neighbors stood watching the drama unfold. A woman he didn't recognize was kneeling on the cement floor with two children by her side. Each child clung to one leg of a middle-aged man, while the woman kept bowing her head repeatedly.
"Please give me the invoice. I will pay you back the money for the electric scooter. The lawyer said, without the invoice, we can't sue the seller!" After she spoke, the woman bowed her head a few more times.
"How shameless can you be, stealing my electric scooter and now shamelessly asking me for the invoice? I'm telling you, take it up with who you got it from, or else I'm calling the police!"
As soon as Xu Qingfan came downstairs, he saw Uncle Li furiously scolding the kneeling woman.
