Chapter 190 The Country Bumpkin
Chapter 190 The Country Bumpkin
The footsteps grew closer, and slowly a young man wearing a trendy hoodie and with light brown hair emerged.
When Ma Junjie looked at the man's face...
It looked familiar. After thinking about it, I realized that this was Liu Yang, the son of Liu Xiong, who had threatened to beat me up last time.
Liu Yang came downstairs and immediately saw Ma Junjie sitting on the sofa.
Liu Yang's gaze swept over Ma Junjie's faded jeans, and a mocking smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
"Dad, Jialing, who is this? Dressed so shabbily, is he our hourly worker or a beggar passing by?"
Liu Yang stood with his hands in his pockets, his disdain undisguised.
After saying that, he walked straight to the coffee table, picked up a bottle of mineral water, and deliberately splashed some water onto Ma Junjie's trouser leg when he unscrewed it.
Ma Junjie frowned slightly, but did not get up. He simply lowered his head and silently wiped the water stains off his trousers.
He knew that Liu Yang was deliberately mocking him.
Liu Yang was filled with rage after he knocked Liu Xiong to the ground last time.
It seems like he made a harsh statement back then, saying he wouldn't let himself off the hook.
Ma Junjie didn't know what Liu Yang's abilities were, but thinking it was better to avoid trouble,
Besides, Liu Yang is also Liu Xiong's son. I'm a guest in his house now, so I'm just giving Liu Xiong face and don't want to argue with Liu Yang.
Liu Xiong, who was watching from the side, frowned and reprimanded,
"Liu Yang, don't talk nonsense! This is A-Jie, an employee of your sister's factory, and also a special guest of Dad."
"Distinguished guest?" Liu Yang scoffed, as if he'd heard a huge joke.
"Dad, are you getting senile? Does a laborer like you deserve to be our honored guest?"
"He exudes an air of poverty from head to toe; even sitting on this sofa would be beneath him..."
"What?! Dad, you actually gave him Da Hong Pao tea? This...this is like feeding pigs with refined rice—a complete waste of food!"
As he spoke, Liu Yang seemed unable to swallow his anger and walked directly to Ma Junjie's side.
With a "smack," the teacup in front of him was snatched away.
With a "plop," the tea was poured directly into the trash can next to it.
He said fiercely.
"Kid, Da Hong Pao tea isn't for someone like you."
"Believe it or not, this little bowl is enough for you to work for ten or fifteen days. You don't deserve to drink it!"
Ma Junjie listened, smiled faintly, and shook his head slightly.
Carina Lau couldn't stand it any longer and went to Liu Yang's side.
He shouted loudly,
"Xiao Yang! How dare you talk like that? Ah Jie is a very nice person, you can't be so rude!"
"Sis, I'm telling the truth!" Liu Yang said, her neck stiff, glancing contemptuously at Ma Junjie.
"Hey, you working here, you're not trying to climb the social ladder by sucking up to my dad and sister, are you?"
"I advise you to give up on that idea now. The Liu family isn't a place for someone like you to try and scam us. Get your filthy ass off the sofa and get lost, don't get in my way!"
Ma Junjie gave a cold smile and slowly stood up.
He had also basically seen through Liu Yang's character.
He is a typical person who is blind to reason and has no sense of right or wrong.
He didn't want to argue any further. Since Liu Yang was so unwelcoming to him, there was no need for him to stay and suffer.
He said to Liu Xiong and Liu Jialing,
"Uncle Liu, Sister Liu, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now."
"Otherwise, I'll always hear dogs barking in my ear, which really annoys me."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yang realized that Ma Junjie was making sarcastic remarks about him, and he flew into a rage, pointing at Ma Junjie and cursing.
"What the hell are you calling a dog? Who are you calling a dog?"
"You damn country bumpkin, I'm still holding a grudge against you for hitting my dad last time, and now you dare to curse at me again?"
"Damn it, don't you dare leave! I'm calling for backup! I'm calling for backup to kill you!"
"You country bumpkin, you wait here, don't you dare leave!"
As he spoke, Liu Yang became agitated, took out his phone from his pocket, and prepared to make a call to summon more people.
Ma Junjie watched quietly, a wry smile on his face.
Then he turned around, preparing to leave alone.
Liu Yang was determined to teach Ma Junjie a lesson today. He looked up and saw Ma Junjie about to leave.
He rushed over and stood in front of Ma Junjie.
"Kid, you're not getting away today. You just wait..."
Before he could finish speaking,
A loud "slap" rang out.
Then,
"Clatter, clatter," Liu Yang's phone fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
Liu Yang covered his face, looked up in disbelief, and glanced to the side.
Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the person who had just slapped him so hard was none other than his own father, Liu Xiong.
Instantly, the air froze.
The phone that had fallen to the ground was answered when the call was made. A voice came through saying, "Hello, hello, Brother Yang, Brother Yang."
Liu Xiong walked over, lifted his foot,
With a loud "bang," I stomped on the phone and smashed it to pieces.
Then, pointing at Liu Yang, he said...
"Liu Yang, why the hell won't you listen to me?"
"I've already said that Ah Jie is my honored guest, why are you still nagging and making trouble?"
"How come I never noticed before? How come you're so annoying?"
Liu Yang covered his burning face.
Before I knew it, tears were streaming down my face.
At 26 years old, this was the first time Liu Xiong had ever hit him so hard, in his memory.
What's more, it happened in front of outsiders.
Liu Yang just couldn't understand it.
Ma Junjie is just a lowly laborer, nothing special. Why does Liu Xiong value him so much?
Even more unbelievable is that Liu Xiong actually... even hit him because of him.
Thinking of this, Liu Yang blamed all his bitterness, grievances, and old and new grudges on Ma Junjie.
He turned his head and glared fiercely at Ma Junjie.
He said, word by word,
"Kid, I'll never let you get away with this!"
"Once you step out that door, without my father's protection, I will definitely kill you!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiong raised his hand to hit Liu Yang again.
Carina Lau quickly came over, pushed Liu Yang away, and advised him...
"Dad, that's enough, Liu Yang is so old, don't hit him anymore."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yang thought to himself that Liu Xiong was a traitor, siding with outsiders.
Fortunately, her older sister, Carina Lau, was wise enough to help her.
But the next second, they heard Carina Lau say,
"Liu Yang is immature and lacks manners. I will educate him slowly in the future."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yang was absolutely furious.
He was puzzled; what was wrong with him today?
Her own father beat her because of Ma Junjie.
Even his own older sister was criticizing him.
What kind of spell did Ma Junjie cast on them that made them all turn against him?
Liu Yang pointed at Ma Junjie and glared at him fiercely a few times.
He said,
"Alright, kid, you're pretty good. We'll see!"
"I can't stay in this house anymore. Once I call my men, they'll be waiting outside to kill you."
After saying that, Liu Yang bent down, picked up the phone from the ground, and ran towards the door.
Liu Xiong cursed from behind.
"You brat, are you even human? Come back here, come back and apologize!"
"Liu Yang, Liu Yang?"
Liu Yang didn't even turn his head; he ran straight outside.
Liu Yang ran out of the yard, reached the gate, and was about to take out his keys to drive away in his sports car.
Suddenly, he noticed a BMW slowly driving towards him.
The BMW pulled up beside Liu Yang. Liu Yang looked puzzled, touched his face, and stared disdainfully out the window.
The car window slowly rolled down, and a person inside smiled at Liu Yang.
Liu Yang also bent down and looked carefully into the car.
Suddenly overjoyed, he burst into laughter.
"Haha, okay, okay!"
"Brother Hao, you're here!"
