"Your current boyfriend, although he looks alright, he’s poor. Were you crying just now because he didn't buy you a car? That’s right, I’m telling you, your boyfriend and I were classmates. He was famously poor in our class.
Moreover, he has three brothers and one sister. He’s the youngest son, so his family definitely won’t have money to help him get married. They can only fool naive young girls like you.
You can’t be with a man like that. For someone as beautiful as you, you should marry a rich man and become a rich wife. Look at our Brother Liu, he’s a truly wealthy man. Buying a car like this is no big deal for him!"
Wu Mengjiao spoke to Shen Yao with the air of a kind elder sister, pretending to be concerned for her.
Shen Yao was stunned. Wasn't that Brother Liu Wu Mengjiao’s boyfriend? How could someone try to set up another woman with her own boyfriend?
As if sensing Shen Yao’s confusion, Wu Mengjiao said magnanimously, “Don’t mind it. Men are all the same. Look at Brother Liu, he’s rich and powerful. It’s only natural for him to have a few women, isn’t it?” (The characters’ views do not represent the author’s views.)
Shen Yao was utterly taken aback by Wu Mengjiao’s distorted worldview. Even in the cultivation world, she had never encountered such a woman; her morals were completely shattered.
Shen Yao dodged Wu Mengjiao’s attempt to grab her hand and quickly retreated a few steps. “Is he really that good? Then you should keep him for yourself, Sister. After all, with your looks, this is the only kind of man you can find. You two are a perfect match. But I’m different. With my beauty, it’ll be much easier for me to find a rich boyfriend than it is for you.”
Upon hearing Shen Yao’s words, Wu Mengjiao could no longer maintain her kind elder sister facade and said coldly, “What do you mean by that!”
Shen Yao continued, “If you think your Brother Liu is so great, then keep a close eye on him and don’t let him out to disgust people. Also, I think you’re jealous because I found such a handsome boyfriend while you can only accompany an old man, so you’re trying to break us up, aren’t you?”
Brother Liu also caught the implication in Shen Yao’s words and his tone lost its feigned kindness.
“You insolent brat, you really have no idea what’s good for you. Do you think you’re special just because you’re somewhat attractive? If you’re smart, you’ll come with me obediently. If you please me, I might even give you some money.”
With that, he strode towards Shen Yao, his fleshy face contorted into a ferocious expression. Shen Yao almost couldn’t stop herself from spitting.
Honestly, she hadn’t seen anyone so unsightly in a long time. In the cultivation world, even if not everyone was a handsome man or a beautiful woman, everyone had undergone purification. How ugly could they possibly be?
She knew she shouldn’t criticize someone’s appearance, but this person was not only ugly, but he was also making a move on her. Did he really think she was easy to bully?
This time, Shen Yao didn’t dodge. Instead, she raised her foot and kicked the man’s enormous belly.
With a muffled thud, Brother Liu was sent flying back three meters by Shen Yao’s kick.
“Cough… cough… cough…”
Brother Liu, winded by Shen Yao’s kick, coughed uncontrollably, struggling to catch his breath.
Wu Mengjiao shrieked and rushed over to help Brother Liu, frantically trying to help him breathe. This was a rich man she had finally managed to latch onto.
Shen Yao and Shen Huaisang didn’t look at Brother Liu and Wu Mengjiao again but remained wary of them making another move.
Brother Liu, having caught his breath, stood up with Wu Mengjiao’s help, seething with anger as he yelled at Shen Yao. However, he didn’t dare to make another move.
Facing Brother Liu’s blustering, Shen Yao calmly replied, “You started this trouble yourselves. Even if you call the police, we’ll be in the right. This is self-defense.”
Shen Yao was not flustered when she heard Brother Liu threatening to call the police. After all, she was in the right, so what did she have to fear?
“Besides, do we know you? You started with sarcasm and insults, trying to disgust us. Why do you like to seek attention so much?”
As for actually calling the police? No, Brother Liu knew that if the police were called, he would be the one in trouble for instigating the conflict. Even if he had connections in the police force, it would be difficult to twist the truth into a lie, especially since the 4S shop was equipped with surveillance cameras.
“Hmph, you think you can get away with this? Little Li, go and kick them out. Why are these beggars here, taking pictures to show off on their social media?”
Brother Liu said to a car salesman standing beside him, who was called Little Li.
However, Little Li apologetically replied to Brother Liu, “Brother Liu, our store has regulations. We cannot arbitrarily ask people to leave.”
Little Li had witnessed the entire event from beginning to end. To be honest, he felt the young lady’s kick was too lenient.
He then looked at Shen Huaisang with disdain. Here was this tall man, and he wasn’t even standing up for his girlfriend when she was being bullied. Truly useless.
Truly Useless Shen Huaisang: Does he not want to act?
No, his sister was holding his hand so tightly that he couldn’t move! Otherwise, he would have charged forward and beaten up that Brother Liu!
“What regulations? I’m telling you, get them out of here right now, or you’ll be fired too!” Brother Liu roared angrily at Little Li.
Little Li was startled by the outburst but still stood there meekly, not moving.
Just then, Little Zhang, who had gone to find the manager, returned with another man.
“What happened?”
They had been in the office, but upon hearing the commotion, they rushed out.
The newcomer was the manager of the 4S shop, Jin Chengwen. He had just heard from Little Zhang that someone wanted to buy four cars at once and was hoping for a discount.
After confirming multiple times that Little Zhang was not joking, he had also sought approval from his superiors.
As soon as the approval came through, he heard the commotion and knew something must have happened, so he hurried over.
When Jin Chengwen saw Brother Liu, his expression immediately soured. Brother Liu was the brother-in-law of their deputy manager and had some family assets, often acting arrogantly.
This wasn't the first time he had caused trouble at their store. Seeing Shen Yao, he immediately understood the likely cause of the incident.
“Liu Heng! What are you doing again!” Jin Chengwen’s tone was displeased.
When Brother Liu heard his name being called, his expression changed. Jin Chengwen wasn’t supposed to be on duty today; why was he here?
That’s right, Liu Heng was somewhat afraid of Jin Chengwen. After all, Jin Chengwen was someone close to the owner of this 4S shop, and his brother-in-law was just a deputy manager under him.
He had deliberately avoided Jin Chengwen’s working hours to come to the store, but he never expected to run into him like this.
“Manager Jin, it’s not my fault this time. I’m the one who was bullied!” Liu Heng quickly said, making himself sound as wronged as possible.
“Bullshit! If you spew more nonsense, I’ll beat you to death!” Shen Huaisang, enraged by Liu Heng’s lies, was about to rush forward, but his hand was held tightly by Shen Yao, preventing him from moving.
It wasn't really his fault, given Shen Yao's current strength. Ten Shen Huaisangs couldn’t break free.
