Chapter 28

"Hey! Isn't that the flower of our county committee? What's up? Learned how to seduce men, huh!"

Amidst a group of men, such a lewd remark made Xu Junran's face instantly darken.

Blocking Xu Junran and Yuan Xiaoyue was a group of men in their twenties. The leader had long hair, wore sunglasses, and was dressed in bell-bottom pants. Bell-bottoms were quite popular in the early 1980s, named for their shape resembling a trumpet. The pants were narrow at the knee and widened from there, with the cuffs significantly larger than the knees, forming a trumpet-like shape. The length of the pants usually covered the heels, and when walking, they had the function of sweeping the ground.

Xu Junran, naturally, had never seen such attire in his previous life, as he was born in the mid-1980s. By the time his adoptive father took him in, such fashion had long disappeared. Therefore, he found the appearance of these men in front of him quite awkward.

"Who are you guys?" Xu Junran asked in a low voice, shielding Yuan Xiaoyue, who looked uncomfortable.

The group of young men burst into laughter. "Interesting, there's still someone in this county who doesn't know us?"

"Yeah, I've never heard of anyone who doesn't know our Brother Cheng!"

"Kid, you must be new here, right?"

Their loud remarks made Xu Junran's expression even more grim. No wonder the state was planning a crackdown next year; the social climate was truly problematic. In broad daylight, a group of petty hooligans dared to harass women. In the future, they wouldn't dare even with two lives.

"Brother Xu, that guy is the younger brother of County Bureau Chief Cheng, Cheng Hongfa," Yuan Xiaoyue said from behind Xu Junran.

Xu Junran frowned and glanced at the young man in colorful clothes. "Your brother is Bureau Chief Cheng?"

The short Cheng Hongfa snorted. "What's it to you, buddy? Don't you know that Xiaoyue is my girlfriend?"

As soon as he said this, Yuan Xiaoyue blushed and quickly said, "He's lying! I have nothing to do with him."

"Hehe, Sister Xiaoyue, don't be shy. If we get to know each other better, you'll find out that I'm a good man." Cheng Hongfa gave a lecherous smile and, ignoring Xu Junran, walked toward Yuan Xiaoyue.

"Friend, what you're doing is a bit too much," Xu Junran stepped forward, blocking Cheng Hongfa.

Cheng Hongfa sized up Xu Junran and laughed. "What's wrong with you? I'm being intimate with my girlfriend, what's it to you?"

Xu Junran frowned and looked at the few young men who were closing in with ill intent. "I'm curious, what do you think your brother, Bureau Chief Cheng, would say if he knew you were doing this under his name?"

He was speaking the truth. For Xu Junran, Cheng Hongfa was definitely not someone he could align with, especially given his relationship with Li Dongyuan. It would be a miracle if they didn't see him as a thorn in their side. As he began to stand out in Wude County, he would likely have to deal with Bureau Chief Cheng more often.

Cheng Hongfa sneered and pointed at Xu Junran. "Let me tell you, kid, don't think you're something special just because you went to university in Beijing. In Wude County, you have to play by my rules! This is my turf!"

Xu Junran was amused by his words. This guy was really bold. If he said this during the crackdown next year, he'd be executed multiple times just for this slogan.

"Cheng... Hongfa, right? You don't need to act tough with me. I spent four years in Beijing and have seen plenty of big shots. Compared to them, you're still lacking. Even though your brother is a county leader, I don't believe he would allow you to do this. You'd better leave now, or don't blame me for being unfriendly." Xu Junran spoke calmly, genuinely not wanting to conflict with such a scumbag. A man who would be dead in two years wasn't worth getting angry over.

Who would want to tangle with a dead man?

Cheng Hongfa's anger flared. No wonder they said this Xu guy was arrogant because he studied in Beijing, looking down on everyone. Today, he was really learning something.

"Xu, today I'll show you the power of Brother Cheng!"

Pointing at Xu Junran, Cheng Hongfa shouted.

As soon as he finished speaking, a cheer came from nearby. "It's Brother Junran, it's Brother Junran! Big Tiger, hurry up! Hurry up!"

The next moment, two figures, one big and one small, appeared before everyone.

"Ha!" Yuan Xiaoyue couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh, and even Xu Junran smiled.

As for Cheng Hongfa and the others, their faces were full of confusion.

The two who appeared were a strange pair: a tall man with a little girl, about ten years old, riding on his neck. The little girl was holding a cotton candy, licking it one bite at a time. The loud cheering was clearly from her.

Seeing Xu Junran, the little girl waved her hand vigorously. "Brother Junran, Brother Junran, I'm here!"

Xu Junran smiled and waved back. "Duo, get down. Don't you see that your Big Tiger brother is almost exhausted?"

The newcomers were Yan Duoduo and Li Yifeng, who were always inseparable.

"Junran, what's going on?" Li Yifeng, carrying Yan Duoduo on his neck, walked up to Xu Junran, put Yan Duoduo down, and asked.

Xu Junran shrugged. "Nothing, just having dinner with colleagues."

Glancing at Cheng Hongfa, Li Yifeng laughed. "Cheng Shorty, what's your problem? Trying to pick on my brother?"

Cheng Hongfa snorted. "Li, others might be afraid of you, but I, Cheng Hongfa, am not. Since he's your brother, it's even easier. This kid stole my girlfriend. Tell me, how should we settle this today? For your sake, I'll be generous and let him off if he kowtows to me three times and then leaves."

Even with his two lifetimes of experience, Xu Junran was speechless at Cheng Hongfa's audacity.

Is this guy's head made of water?

Not only was he twisting the facts, but he was also arrogantly making humiliating demands. Even Xu Junran, who was usually very composed, was annoyed.

If it weren't for Yuan Xiaoyue and Yan Duoduo, Xu Junran might have taken action.

At that moment, Yan Duoduo, with her innocent voice, said, "Brother Junran, why don't you call your subordinates to beat them up? Didn't Grandpa say you're going to be the deputy secretary of the commune?"

Her words stunned everyone.
