Chapter 2

"Free of charge? Do you know what brand this dress is? It's Chanel! Talking about Chanel to you country bumpkins, you wouldn't understand. But do you know how much this dress costs? A full ten thousand yuan! Ten thousand yuan could buy your entire shabby farm-to-table restaurant. Free of charge? What a joke!"

In the store, a woman dressed in a very flamboyant and seductive manner stood with one hand on her hip, pointing at a man and a woman in front of her, her face full of condescension and disdain.

She was wearing a beige dress, which was now covered in sauce stains.

Beside the woman stood six or seven men dressed in a rather avant-garde style, one of whom was wearing a Longines mechanical watch, clearly a rich young master.

"Ten thousand yuan!" The young woman standing opposite the seductive woman, dressed in a simple style, was so frightened that she lost all color in her face. The middle-aged man beside her also turned pale at the number.

In the 1990s, the average wage for most workers in China was only three to four hundred yuan, so ten thousand yuan was a huge sum for many people.

"This, this, I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to, it was your own carelessness that made me... " The simple young woman said, her face pale and her voice stammering.

"What kind of attitude is this? Are you saying it's my fault!" The seductive woman's voice suddenly became sharp, her finger almost touching the nose of the woman opposite her.

"Qiu Zi!" The middle-aged man quickly stopped the young woman who wanted to argue, then bent over and smiled apologetically, "The child doesn't know any better, please don't be angry. Fortunately, the dress is just dirty, it should be fine after washing. I'll pay for the laundry, and the meal will still be free of charge!"

"Damn, how do you talk? A luxury brand dress stained with sauce, can it be fixed with just a wash? Can it be solved with just a meal? Do I lack the money for a meal?" The man wearing the Longines watch, hearing this, was furious and pushed the middle-aged man hard in the chest.

The middle-aged man, caught off guard, stumbled back several steps until he was stopped by a table behind him. He rubbed his waist and said with a look of anger, "Hey, how can you push people?"

"So what if I push you? If you don't give Yue Ting an explanation today, I'll beat you up!" The man wearing the Longines watch said arrogantly, and the few young men behind him rolled up their sleeves and glared at the middle-aged man.

"Who dares to touch my father?" As the man wearing the Longines watch finished speaking, a voice, still slightly childish but full of anger, suddenly came from the back of the crowd. A teenager about sixteen or seventeen years old pushed through the crowd, walked to the middle-aged man's side, and asked with concern, "Dad, are you okay?"

This teenager was naturally Ge Dongxu, and the middle-aged man was his father, Ge Shengming. The young woman was named Ye Qiu, and she was a helper hired by his father.

"I'm fine, why are you here? Go inside quickly, this isn't your business." Ge Shengming said hurriedly when he saw his son.

"You're being bullied, how can this not be my business?" Ge Dongxu said, then looked up at the young man who had pushed his father.

"Damn, a snot-nosed brat, what are you looking at? Get lost!" The man, seeing it was just a teenager and that he was staring at him, was furious and cursed.

"You're the one who should get lost! It was clearly this woman who tripped and bumped into Sister Qiu, what does it have to do with us!" Ge Dongxu retorted, showing no fear.

"Damn, do you know who I am? You, a snot-nosed brat, dare to be arrogant with me!" The man wearing the Longines watch, never having been insulted by a country boy like this, was enraged and raised his hand to slap Ge Dongxu.

However, before the man's hand could touch Ge Dongxu, it was caught by Ge Dongxu. Then, with a slight effort, Ge Dongxu made the man bend over in pain, crying out, "Pain, pain! My hand is going to break, let go!"

"East Xu, let go quickly!" Ge Shengming, fearing his son would really break the man's wrist, shouted at Ge Dongxu.

"Okay, Dad." Ge Dongxu nodded and released his hand.

As soon as Ge Dongxu let go, the man wearing the Longines watch, enraged and embarrassed, kicked Ge Dongxu in the stomach.

The sight of a young adult suddenly kicking a teenager was almost too much to bear, let alone to witness. Many people instinctively shouted, and some women even closed their eyes, forgetting the calm and composed manner in which the teenager had dealt with the man wearing the Longines watch.

"Hmph, you still want to hit me!" Just as everyone thought Ge Dongxu would be kicked to the ground, he frowned, reached out, and gently pushed the man's leg upward.

"Bang!" A loud sound.

The man wearing the Longines watch fell backward, landing on his back, dazed and disoriented.

"Ha ha!" The onlookers laughed.

"Is Brother Kun okay?" A few young men quickly rushed to help the man wearing the Longines watch.

"Okay, my ass! My butt is going to split into four pieces, beat this kid!" Brother Kun, holding his butt as he got up, said angrily.

The young men, realizing what was happening, some rushed forward, and others picked up chairs.

Seeing several young men about to attack a teenager, the onlookers' faces changed. Some men wanted to rush forward but were held back by the women beside them.

The women were more cautious; these young men were clearly from the city and had some background. They didn't want their men to get involved and cause trouble.

In the blink of an eye, the young men had already rushed to Ge Dongxu.

Ye Qiu had already screamed and wanted to rush forward but was held back by Ge Shengming.

"East Xu, go easy on them!" Ge Shengming, pulling back Ye Qiu, frowned, both angry and helpless.

Although he had never asked what his son had learned from Ren Yao, as a father, he knew from daily interactions that his son had learned some real skills from Ren Yao, and a few ordinary men couldn't do anything to him.
