Chapter 83: Chapter 82: Making a Killing off the Internet Star

There was no way he was mistaken.

The night before last, when he was on a date with Xia Shiqing, he happened to see a movie starring Ai Yikun.

The man’s terrible accent in the movie had been grating to listen to, which was why he’d left such a strong impression.

He’d even complained about it at the time, but Xia Shiqing had said it was Ai Yikun’s real voice.

Later, when the actor was swarmed by fans in the mall, Chen Mo had gotten a good look at his face and build.

It was a perfect match for the slender man in the mask standing before him.

Even the clothes Ai Yikun was wearing were the same ones from the day before yesterday.

So, Chen Mo was positive that the person who had crashed a supercar into his car...

...was Ai Yikun!

Hearing Chen Mo call out his name, Ai Yikun’s slender body trembled slightly, and he instantly tensed up.

"What Ai Yikun? You’ve got the wrong person."

Ai Yikun pretended not to know who Ai Yikun was, a look of confusion in his eyes as he shook his head in denial.

He was wearing a face mask and a baseball cap precisely to avoid being recognized.

Under normal circumstances, it might not have mattered, but in this situation, it absolutely couldn’t happen.

"I saw your movie just the day before yesterday, and I saw you in the mall. There’s no mistake. You’re Ai Yikun!"

Seeing the man’s denial, Chen Mo couldn’t help but chuckle.

’If he had this kind of acting talent in his movies, maybe he wouldn’t have turned what was supposed to be a comedy into a romance film for me.’

The strong stench of alcohol was wafting off the man. ’This is a DUI!’

Even though this was an underground garage, it still counted as driving under the influence.

’Looks like I’m about to hit the jackpot again.’

Hearing Chen Mo’s words, Ai Yikun sobered up by half, cursing his luck internally.

’Why did I have that brain-dead idea to act all low-key and go to a movie theater the other day? And why did I deliberately leak my whereabouts to my fans?’

’And now look, Chen Mo saw me.’

As a result, because Chen Mo had seen him that day, he was recognized instantly.

At the thought, he wanted to curse out loud.

"Man, you’ve really got the wrong person. I’m not any Ai Yikun."

"Look, man, I’m in a hurry. How much do you want for the repairs? I can transfer the money to you right now, how about that?"

Ai Yikun felt he had no choice but to continue denying it and offer to pay for the repairs, hoping to resolve the matter quickly.

He wanted to just leave. As long as he waited for the alcohol to metabolize, he wouldn’t be afraid even if he were tested.

But it was clear Chen Mo wouldn’t let him leave so easily.

Looking at Chen Mo’s physique, then at his own skinny frame, that was clearly not a realistic option.

If he provoked Chen Mo and the guy called the police, he’d be truly finished.

"There’s no point in pretending anymore. Since you won’t admit it, I’ll just have to call the police."

Chen Mo took out his phone, pretending he was about to call the police.

He knew that calling the police was what Ai Yikun feared most. The moment he started dialing 110, the actor wouldn’t dare to play dumb any longer.

Because once the police arrived, playing dumb would be pointless.

Ai Yikun saw that Chen Mo had already keyed in the three digits, 1-1-0, and was just about to hit dial.

He finally broke.

"Hey man, don’t do that. Okay, fine, I admit it. I’m Ai Yikun."

Ai Yikun quickly reached out to stop Chen Mo from making the call, then took off his mask and reluctantly admitted his identity.

He had no choice. He couldn’t actually let Chen Mo call the police.

Other than admitting who he was, he had no other option.

"A-list celebrity hits innocent bystander while driving drunk. Just thinking about that headline, it’s explosive."

Seeing the face behind the mask, Chen Mo’s lips curved into a subtle, meaningful smile.

With Ai Yikun’s level of fame, if this news really got out, it would definitely be enough to crash Weibo’s servers.

"Name your price. How much money do you want?"

Ai Yikun dropped the act. His eyes flickered as he looked at Chen Mo and asked him how much money he wanted.

"What do you mean? I don’t want a single penny from you. I just want the traffic police to come and handle the accident."

Hearing this, Chen Mo instantly saw through the man’s petty scheme and shot him a glance before sneering.

’What a clown, trying to set me up?’

Ai Yikun thought he was being clever, proactively asking how much money he wanted.

If Chen Mo had named a price right then, it would have been extortion.

If the amount was large enough, Ai Yikun could have turned the tables and had Chen Mo sent to jail.

At that point, they would likely have called it even.

’You don’t pursue my case, and I won’t pursue yours.’

But Chen Mo had been through plenty. He’d lost count of how many NDAs he’d signed.

He was experienced, to say the least, and knew a trap when he saw one.

Seeing that the guy still hadn’t given up his malicious intent and was trying to trick him, Chen Mo once again keyed in the three digits, 1-1-0, looking like he was about to dial.

"Buddy, don’t be like that. Let’s talk this over properly."

Seeing Chen Mo wasn’t falling for it, Ai Yikun could only stop him from calling the police again.

He had wanted to see if Chen Mo would take the bait, but he hadn’t expected Chen Mo to react so quickly and not fall into his trap at all.

He didn’t give him any opening.

On the contrary, his immediate move to call the police had made Ai Yikun’s heart skip a beat.

"How do you want to talk?"

Chen Mo’s expression was calm and composed. He held all the cards.

’Anyway, if anything doesn’t go my way, I’ll just call the police and be done with it.’

"I had actually almost stopped. It was just a little tap. I looked, and the damage isn’t serious."

"So let’s not go through insurance. I’ll pay you 500,000 for car repairs, plus another 1,000,000 for emotional distress. We’ll leave it at that, and you don’t call the police, okay?"

Ai Yikun thought for a moment before quickly proposing a solution.

He just wanted to get away as fast as possible and find a place to hide.

As long as he could wait for the alcohol in his system to metabolize, he wouldn’t be afraid of anything Chen Mo might say later.
