C140 – They Are Indeed Very Cheap
“Brother Hao, he’s being mean to me!”
“Wahhh...”
“I just want that Fruit 9 phone!”
Jiang Hao gave the embracing pair a quizzical look, feeling a wave of goosebumps wash over him.
He had mistaken the middle-aged man next to the hysterical woman for her father!
Little did he know their actual connection!
At that moment, even the saleswoman who was showing Jiang Hao the phones cast an odd glance at the couple.
The beer-bellied middle-aged man, referred to as Brother Hao by the distraught woman, was gently patting her back, trying to soothe her.
“Don’t worry, it’s nothing. Just some poor guy! Watch how Brother Hao avenges you!”
With that, Brother Hao pulled Xu Jia Rong to the side, then stepped up to Jiang Hao with a menacing look on his face.
“Looking for trouble, are you?”
“How dare you insult my woman?”
But standing at a modest height, he seemed less imposing next to the towering 1.8-meter-tall Jiang Hao.
Meanwhile, Xu Jia Rong watched the scene unfold with a smug look directed at Jiang Hao.
Seeing the tension, the saleswoman who had been assisting Jiang Hao quickly intervened, trying to separate the two men.
“Sir, please, let’s keep calm!”
Curious eyes turned to the source of the commotion.
The sales associate opened her eyes to the unfolding situation, her expression one of utter shock.
Xu Jia Rong’s face, previously lit with triumph, seized up in disbelief.
This wasn’t at all what they had expected.
Jiang Hao, whom they had imagined would be the one taking a beating, stood unscathed at his original spot!
Hao Jian, who had just exuded a menacing presence and initiated the attack, now lay on the ground a short distance away, clutching his face and moaning in agony.
Xu Jia Rong quickly snapped out of her stupor.
Pointing at Jiang Hao, her eyes flickered with fear.
“You... you’re done for!”
“How dare you strike CEO Hao!”
She hurried over to Hao Jian, sprawled on the ground, and frantically helped him to his feet.
“Brother Hao, Brother Hao, are you okay? Tell me you’re okay!”
At that instant, the sales associate rushed to Jiang Hao’s side, her voice laced with urgency.
“Sir, you should get out of here fast, or it’s going to get messy!”
Jiang Hao gave the sales associate a look of mild surprise.
Yet, he didn’t heed her warning.
This only heightened the sales associate’s sense of urgency.
Hao Jian, now on his feet, his face contorted with rage and one hand nursing his reddened cheek, shoved Xu Jia Rong aside with his other hand.
