Chapter 233 Overestimating One's Abilities
Upon hearing this, Ma Junjie stopped.
He put his feet down, turned his head, and looked back.
Upon closer inspection, they saw Jiang Hao walk in with an assistant.
Jiang Hao looked anxious, his eyes scanning the private room.
He saw that the private room was a mess, Zhang Qiang was kneeling on the ground, and Monkey and Ali were lying on the ground groaning.
Jiang Hao's face instantly darkened, and he asked,
"Ah Jie, what are you doing?"
"Why are you all fighting again, you family?"
Jiang Hao's voice was authoritative, but also carried a hint of anger.
Ma Junjie looked at Jiang Hao, then glanced at Zhang Qiang on the ground.
He wasn't in a hurry to explain, he simply said,
"Brother Hao, I'm sorry."
"I acted impulsively and couldn't hold back, so we started fighting right here."
"But, Zhang Qiang and the others..."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Hao immediately frowned, clearly showing his displeasure.
He waved his hand and said,
"Ah Jie, just tell me what happened, and what Zhang Qiang did!"
Ma Junjie glanced at the people on the ground again before speaking bluntly.
"Brother Hao, it's just... I really can't take it anymore!"
"Zhang Qiang and his henchmen, for no apparent reason, actually beat another member of the security team, Liu Xiaoshan, seriously injured..."
"The monkeys say they not only severed his Achilles tendons but also blinded him; it was incredibly cruel!"
"I couldn't take it anymore, so I went to demand an explanation from them, and that's when a fight broke out..."
Jiang Hao was stunned. He shook his head, finding it utterly unbelievable.
He suddenly looked at Zhang Qiang, his eyes filled with shock and anger.
"Zhang Qiang, is what A-Jie said true?"
Zhang Qiang got up from the ground, wiped the blood from his nose, and
Looking aggrieved, he explained,
"Brother Hao, it was that brat Liu Xiaoshan who broke the rules and spied on me while I was doing things, so I taught him a lesson..."
Jiang Hao flew into a rage and roared...
"Holy crap, you actually did something this stupid!"
"What the hell were you doing, spying on you? What did you do that warranted such a brutal attack?"
"Even ordinary security guards are our brothers!"
"You even turn on your own people, Zhang Qiang, are you even human?!"
Jiang Hao shouted loudly, trembling with anger.
A few seconds later, he couldn't hold back any longer. He rushed towards Zhang Qiang, raised his foot, and with a loud "bang," kicked Zhang Qiang hard in the chest.
Zhang Qiang fell to the ground with a thud.
Jiang Hao was still furious and started cursing.
"Damn it, Zhang Qiang, you'll kill Blue Moon sooner or later! You son of a bitch!"
Zhang Qiang had just gotten up when he was kicked down again.
He now only felt aches and pains all over his body.
He was utterly despondent, yet the physical pain he felt was nothing compared to the agony in his heart.
He stared at the ceiling, utterly astonished that Jiang Hao would so readily believe Ma Junjie's words.
To his surprise, Jiang Hao would so openly insult him and kick him hard in front of everyone.
Ever since Ma Junjie joined Blue Moon, Jiang Hao seems to have reduced him to a useless piece of trash in Jiang Hao's eyes.
Before this, he was second only to the emperor, enjoying immense prestige and a promising future.
But now, it seems everything is collapsing...
"Brother Hao, Liu Xiaoshan is still in the hospital and urgently needs medical expenses," Ma Junjie suddenly said.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Hao came to his senses.
He asked Zhang Qiang and the others in a stern voice,
Where are they?
Where is Liu Xiaoshan now?
The monkey answered timidly.
"General Manager Jiang... he... he's at the First People's Hospital."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Hao glared at the monkey and cursed.
"You lackeys and accomplices, I'll deal with you properly later!"
After speaking, he turned to look at his assistant.
"Go to the finance department and advance all of Zhang Qiang's year-end bonus for this year, and send it to the hospital as medical expenses and compensation for Liu Xiaoshan."
"Yes, Mr. Jiang," the assistant replied quickly.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Qiang's eyes widened instantly.
He struggled to his feet and stammered,
"Hao...Brother Hao, please...please don't do this..."
"I've worked so hard all year, all I've been hoping for is that little bit of year-end bonus. I... I was even planning to use it to buy a car, but... please don't do this!"
"Shut up!" Jiang Hao glared at Zhang Qiang and yelled.
"Zhang Qiang, the year-end bonus is just the beginning. If something really goes wrong with him, I'll have to pay him back all your remaining salary!"
"Damn it, even a rabbit won't eat the grass near its burrow, you're a real scoundrel!"
"I...I..." Zhang Qiang was speechless, and he really wanted to explain again.
But he couldn't directly tell Liu Xiaoshan that he had been spying on him selling things privately.
"Sigh!" He sighed heavily, and could only watch helplessly as his assistant left, his face turning pale and then red.
Seeing that the matter was basically resolved, Ma Junjie suddenly clasped his hands in a fist salute to Jiang Hao and said...
"Brother Hao, on behalf of my teammate Liu Xiaoshan, thank you for upholding justice."
"Brother Hao, also... I'd like to ask for leave to go to the hospital to see Liu Xiaoshan."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Hao agreed without hesitation.
"Go ahead, leave things here to me."
"If you need more money, call me and I'll deduct it from Zhang Qiang's salary!"
Ma Junjie nodded, gave Zhang Qiang a cold glance, and then turned and left quickly.
After Ma Junjie left, Jiang Hao looked at Zhang Qiang and slowly walked towards him.
As Zhang Qiang saw the figure approaching, a sense of unease crept into his heart.
He trembled as he struggled to back away.
"Zhang Qiang, don't move!" Jiang Hao shouted.
Zhang Qiang stopped, stiff and wooden for a moment, head down and motionless.
Jiang Hao spoke slowly, his tone icy.
"Zhang Qiang, don't think I don't know what you're up to behind the scenes..."
"At Blue Moon, there's nothing I don't know!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Qiang's heart skipped a beat, and he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He abruptly raised his head and looked at Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao was as cold as ice.
"I'm giving you this advice out of goodwill; you'd better pull back from the brink."
"If there's a next time, I'll skin you alive!"
After saying that, Jiang Hao turned around angrily.
After taking two steps, he suddenly stopped.
"And Zhang Qiang, in the future... don't mess with Ma Junjie."
"You... are no match for him at all. Don't overestimate yourself and invite trouble!"
After saying that, Jiang Hao opened the door and strode out.
As soon as the door closed, the private room fell silent.
Zhang Qiang lowered his head, his fists clenched so tightly that his nails almost dug into his flesh.
Jiang Hao's words were like a sword, piercing him deeply.
He could sense Jiang Hao's disappointment, the strange looks Monkey and Ali were giving him, and he could also feel the coldness in Ma Junjie's eyes just now.
All of this felt like thorns piercing his heart.
"Brother Qiang..." The monkey carefully got up, looking at Zhang Qiang's face, not daring to say anything more.
Zhang Qiang could no longer control himself.
He suddenly raised his head, his eyes bloodshot, like an enraged wild beast.
With a loud "bang," he slammed his fist into the ground.
The monkey looked over in horror and saw that Zhang Qiang's fist had been scraped and was bleeding profusely.
"Ma...Jun...Jie!" Zhang Qiang gritted his teeth and growled, each word uttered slowly and deliberately, his voice filled with resentment and venom.
"You just wait! I'll repay you tenfold for the humiliation you've caused me today! If I don't kill you, I'll change my name!"
The monkey and Ali stood to the side, too scared to even breathe.
This was the first time they had ever seen Zhang Qiang suffer such an insult, and also the first time they had ever seen Zhang Qiang so angry.
After a while, Ali mustered up his courage and came up.
He leaned close to Zhang Qiang's ear and whispered a few words in his ear.
After listening, Zhang Qiang's eyes suddenly lit up.
He forcefully wiped the blood from his face, flicked it to the ground, and then said to Ali,
"Ali, we'll do as you say!"
"Go, do it right away!"
