8 A blessing in disguise?(1/2)

But it was Karen's attitude that angered the two gangsters.

The old black guy standing behind reached out and touched his waist.

"Bitch, I think you need a lesson. Open your cash register and take out all the money..."

Karen also didn't expect that the deal between these two guys would fail, and Renyi would not be around either.

If they don't agree, they pull out guns and rob!

Although this is also a routine operation of gangsters, this is the Irvine District and the public security situation here has always been good.

This kind of thing rarely happens, so she was caught off guard by Lao Hei's sudden change of attitude.

"Assistant! Take your hands out and don't move them!"

A sharp shout came from behind several people.

The three of them turned around and saw that it was Chen Rui who had been silent before. He was holding an M9 in his hand and pointing at two black men.

When Lao Hei saw the guy in his hand, he immediately panicked.

The one at the back straightened his neck and stretched his hands into his arms.

'Click'

Chen Rui cocked the gun of the M9.

Lao Hei, who was wearing a black turban in front of him, immediately reached out and held down the fat man next to him.

"Calm down, man, calm down!"

"I'm calm, now you two get out of here."

Chen Rui pointed his m9 at the two black men and said.

The two old black men didn't dare to talk nonsense. They didn't want the bags on the counter, turned around and ran out of the antique store.

Seeing the two people walking away, Chen Rui breathed a sigh of relief.

He has been in the United States for more than ten years, although he has also gone to the shooting range to play with guns.

But like today, it was his first time to point a gun at someone.

Although the two black men had run away, Chen Rui's calves were still shaking a little.

As soon as he saw the old black man show his evil spirit, Chen Rui secretly took out the m9 from Karen's container.

There are even no bullets in the gun...

Fortunately, those two old gangsters didn't dare to bet just now, otherwise, he would definitely lose this vote...

At this moment, Chen Rui was also full of surprises. What surprised him was the thrilling scene just now.

Fortunately, my eyes can see more than just jewels.

I can even see evil spirits and dangers. Will I be able to rely on this ability to seek good fortune and avoid misfortunes in the future?

"Thank you so much for just now, Ricky."

Karen saved her life, and now her attitude toward Chen Rui was naturally much closer.

But at this moment, there was a harsh roar of a motor coming from the street in the distance.

Chen Rui instinctively glanced out the window and shouted: "Not good."

After saying that, he stretched out his hand and knocked down Karen in front of him...

As soon as the two fell to the ground, they heard several "bang bang" gunshots coming from outside.

The glass window of the antique shop burst instantly...

Glass shards even splashed all over Chen Rui's head and face...

But at the moment, he didn't care about the broken glass.

When he saw the graceful and plump body under him, which constantly radiated fragrance, he stood a little contentedly...

"Are you okay?"

Karen underneath her suddenly asked, her voice a little shaky at this time.

Chen Rui quickly sat up straight: "Ah! It's okay, what about you?"

He looked at Karen, who was actually blushing at this time.

"I'm fine too! Oh, no, damn..."

Seeing the broken glass that exploded all over the floor, Karen suddenly became furious.

She got up and walked outside the door. The car had already disappeared without a trace.

You can tell with your toes that it must have been those two old gangsters.

"It seems that the recent security situation in Irvine is not very good!"

Chen Rui came to the door, stood beside Karen and whispered.

Irvine is the main area where Chinese Americans live, and the public security situation has been good in the past few years.

However, in recent years, as the U.S. economy has deteriorated, various violent crimes have gradually increased.

Especially in the past few months, even zero-yuan purchases have spread to nearby shopping malls.

Karen frowned and glanced at the broken glass window behind her.

There were several shocked pedestrians on the roadside, who were taking out their phones and calling the police.

Chen Rui quickly returned the m9 in his hand to Karen.

"I just took this from the container at the back, do you mind?"

"How could it be? I also want to thank you..."

In about fifteen minutes, the police came and took notes on each of them.

He only left a sentence to tell them to be careful, and then left.

Looking at the police car's retreating figure, Karen couldn't help but cursed a few words of trash in a low voice.

She turned to look at Chen Rui again.

"Ricky, I changed my mind. I can rent you the room upstairs."

"Really?"

"Of course, the rent is one hundred dollars a week..."

Karen said bluntly, Chen Rui was stunned when he heard the rent.

The rent in this area is not cheap. Even if you share a room with others, it will cost you two to three hundred dollars a week.

"But you have to do me a favor!"

Karen's terms are coming soon.

"Okay! Say it."

Chen Rui said with a smile that he had expected that there would be additional conditions.

"Help me clean up this mess first."

Karen pointed to the broken glass window, and Chen Rui nodded.

After finding a ruler and measuring the size, Chen Rui drove to a nearby furniture store.

He is going to buy a piece of plywood to seal this window first.

Fortunately, Karen's shop has all the tools, with the help of a chainsaw and a nail gun.

After only two hours of work, he sealed the window.

"Karen, I think you should buy a set of rolling shutter doors and windows."

"The current public security situation is too bad. Just in case, we still need to prepare early."

Chen Rui, who had never done any decoration work before, was already sweating profusely after finishing all this work.

He said to Karen while packing up his tools.

Karen smiled bitterly and returned: "Do you think I don't want to? Some time ago, I consulted a security company."

"I wanted them to install an anti-theft system for me, but do you know how much they would charge me?"

"One hundred thousand dollars! One hundred thousand!"

"What?"

Chen Rui was also shocked when he heard the quotation.

"This is too dark! Let's buy a set from AliExpress and install it ourselves. It won't cost much, right?"

Think about it, the top electric anti-theft doors and windows in China only cost tens of thousands of yuan per set.

Thinking about this old beauty’s quotation again, this is simply a money grab!
