Chapter 49

"Damn! How dare a bitch bully the young miss?" Two burly men in a black business car flew into a rage.

The bald man, with a fierce look on his face, clenched his fists and looked at the man with a pompadour: "Boss, I'm just waiting for your word. How do you want to deal with her?"

The man with the pompadour coldly spat out the cigarette in his mouth, the ashes hitting the windshield and then landing on Li Yuan's face, leaving a trail of sparks: "Follow my plan!"

The balding uncle, softened by Li Yuan's coquettishness, had one part of his body hard while the rest was soft. He leered and let his large hand slide from Li Yuan's waist to her round buttocks, asking the gray-eyed female saleswoman: "How much?"

When they arrived, they didn't hear the saleswoman mention the price. They just happened to hear Xiao Ru trying to persuade Wang Ge, and it was because Xiao Ru mentioned "Wang Ge" that Li Yuan recognized her junior high school classmate whom she hadn't seen for five years.

The gray-eyed female saleswoman frowned at their vulgar actions but still answered professionally: "This Star Gazing model is our Fairy Light Brain's flagship product. The special price is just 128,000!"

The balding uncle's expression froze for a moment. How much? 128,000?

First, he wasn't a big boss. Second, Li Yuan was just a toy for him.

How could a normal, married old man impulsively pay for a toy?

He had originally planned to buy Li Yuan a media player, spending 30,000 to 40,000, which would be quite good.

So, the balding uncle didn't show his pain but instead looked calm and natural as he said to Li Yuan: "Performance machines are too professional. It would be a waste for you. Yuan Yuan, you just shop online, watch movies, and play videos. Do you really need a performance machine? A media player would be enough. The money saved could buy you a bag or something, wouldn't that be great?"

If it were any other day, Li Yuan would have accepted it. But today, in front of Wang Ge, especially after she had just mocked him, not buying it would be slapping her own face.

Thinking she was still quite favored by the balding uncle, Li Yuan's elastic body almost rubbed into his beer belly: "Oh, honey, I just like this one! I don't want a bag, just buy this one!"

The balding uncle frowned. He could afford it, but the question was whether it was worth it. For a girl like Li Yuan, who was not chaste, and whom he had already played with a few times, how could he invest so much?

"Pay by card or transfer." A voice came from the side. Li Yuan was surprised and stopped her coquettishness, turning to look back. She saw Wang Ge already paying.

What? Impossible! He was dressed so shabbily, how could he have so much money? Cold sweat broke out on Li Yuan's forehead. She stared intently at the ring-shaped transfer machine in the saleswoman's hand. When the "transaction successful" prompt sounded, Li Yuan immediately stared intently at Wang Ge's face.

She firmly believed that Wang Ge was still the poor guy from back then, so she hoped to see pain or a forced smile on his face. But to her disappointment, Wang Ge's expression was very natural.

"Sorry." Wang Ge, while swiping his card, apologized to Xiao Ru beside him. Although he hadn't fully grasped the malice in Li Yuan's calling Xiao Ru a "junior high school student," he knew Li Yuan wasn't saying anything nice.

However, he couldn't hit a woman over a few mocking words. Arguing with a woman would make him look cheap. After all, she was just a woman he didn't care about, so ignoring her was the best option.

But he had to apologize to Xiao Ru, as she had been implicated because of him.

Xiao Ru shook her head slightly: "You don't need to apologize."

"What?" The balding uncle, with his beer belly, stepped forward. He was actually too lazy to get involved in Li Yuan and Wang Ge's affairs. Li Yuan was just a toy for him, and he was old and lacked energy, so he only wanted to exert himself in bed.

But he could choose not to buy it for Li Yuan, and Wang Ge buying it made him feel deeply humiliated.

As a man, before success, he could put his face in the dirt. But after success, he would pick it up again and value it more than his life.

So the balding uncle seized the opportunity to cause trouble. He pointed at Xiao Ru with his short, thick fingers and shouted: "Two country bumpkins want us to apologize? Did Yuan Yuan hit you? Did she curse you? Why should we apologize? Are you trying to extort us? Security! Where are the security guards?"

The balding uncle wasn't stupid. Before causing trouble, he first looked at Wang Ge and Xiao Ru's clothing.

Both were dressed very simply, and the girl wasn't wearing any jewelry. Although she had a good aura, the balding uncle assumed it was natural beauty.

After confirming they weren't rich or powerful, the balding uncle put on a domineering air. Bullying the poor was something he loved!

And Li Yuan, emboldened by the balding uncle's support, who wouldn't have been so aggressive otherwise, immediately screamed: "Security! Can just anyone come in? What if they're thieves? Who will be responsible if money is lost? And that saleswoman, don't think it's all good just because you got the money. It might be stolen!"

Wang Ge's face darkened, and his fists clenched with a cracking sound. He had been patient, but he didn't expect the balding fat man and Li Yuan to slander him and Xiao Ru so much.

He had taken many lives, and in his anger, a strong killing aura emanated from him.

The balding fat man and Li Yuan had successfully provoked him, and while he might not act here, he couldn't guarantee he wouldn't take revenge in a secluded place after leaving the electronics city.

But at that moment, his bulging veins were suddenly pressed by a soft, small hand.

Wang Ge's tense face slowly turned, meeting Xiao Ru's pleading gaze.

Xiao Ru didn't understand Wang Ge's character, but she sensed the killing aura from him and, being kind, chose to stop him from potentially going down the wrong path.

Furrowing her brows, Xiao Ru silently shook her head at Wang Ge.

She didn't speak, but Wang Ge felt her persuasion. She was hoping he wouldn't act rashly and make a mistake.

The soft hand that pressed turned to a grip, and then to a pull. Wang Ge could feel the strength in this small hand, not physical strength, but mental strength, the strength of kindness, like a clear spring trying to cleanse a blackened brush.

Wang Ge's anger was unconsciously soothed by her softness. The hand that held his conveyed an indescribable peace.

The crowd was drawn to the balding uncle's loud voice and the accusations, and several security guards in gray uniforms coldly and quickly surrounded them, subtly encircling Wang Ge and Xiao Ru.

It wasn't yet clear who the bad guys were between Wang Ge and Xiao Ru, and the balding uncle and Li Yuan.

But the security guards only recognized clothing, not people. From their appearance, wasn't it already clear who they should protect and who they should attack?

Most of the onlookers were the same. They didn't know Wang Ge and Xiao Ru, nor the balding uncle and Li Yuan, but from their appearance, they assumed the balding uncle and Li Yuan were their kind, and looked at Wang Ge and Xiao Ru with suspicion and disdain.

Only the gray-eyed female saleswoman looked at Xiao Ru thoughtfully, as if remembering something but not sure.

At that moment, the crowd was suddenly pushed aside.

Two tall, black-suited, sunglasses-wearing men barged in. Although the people shopping in the electronics city weren't necessarily rich, they were at least middle-class, and they immediately complained, with some even shouting.

But these two men, like robots, only had eyes for Xiao Ru, ignoring everyone else.

Approaching Xiao Ru, both men bowed slightly and said in unison: "Young Miss, Young Master, it's time to go back."

This dramatic turn of events made those who had been shouting turn to whispering. Although they didn't know the identity of the young miss and young master, the sunglasses worn by their servants, costing tens of thousands of solar coins and equipped with navigation, microscopic, and night vision functions, were impressive.

Wang Ge, usually calm, showed a hint of surprise, and he was inwardly shocked.

What was going on?

Xiao Ru, a temporary worker at a high-end magic point store...

Could she actually be a young miss?

The balding uncle and Li Yuan were stunned, their shock even greater than Wang Ge's. They even doubted if this was a temporary act, a fake. Could such a cliché plot from a novel really happen to them?

Xiao Ru gently pulled Wang Ge's hand, her cautious movements like an apology or a request. Wang Ge, coming to his senses, was led away by Xiao Ru, his mood complex.

The security guards, who had been subtly surrounding them, quietly retreated into the crowd. Since the other party was powerful, they had no reason to intervene.

While they were like wolves to the poor, in front of the powerful...

The two black-suited, sunglasses-wearing men followed closely behind Xiao Ru and Wang Ge, showing no extra expressions. The man with the pompadour paused, pushing his sunglasses down to his nose, revealing deep, sharp eyes, and coldly stared at the balding uncle before pushing them back over his eyes.

Just that one look made the balding uncle break out in a cold sweat.

The balding uncle, with his beer belly, ran up to the man with the pompadour, panting and asking in a low voice: "Excuse me, are you... Mr. Zhao's attendant?"

His arrogance was long gone, his attitude almost servile.

The man with the pompadour sneered, neither nodding nor shaking his head, but with a casual push, sent the balding uncle sprawling on the ground.

Then they walked away without looking back.
