Chapter 003: Don’t Know What’s Good for You; Some People You Just Can’t Mess With!:
[2333]: “Brother Jie, you’re so daring! It’s your first time visiting your father-in-law’s house, and you dare to be so arrogant. You’re saying what countless losers like us don’t dare to say, haha!”
[6666]: “Brother Jie is crazy, it’s confirmed!”
“Daring to speak like that in front of Han Yushi, Brother Jie, you truly are my idol!”
The live stream was flooded with comments, and the viewers were ecstatic.
However, Han Jian and Han Yi were immediately displeased, and even Han Yushi, who had the aura of a fairy, instinctively frowned in disapproval.
Han Jian said unhappily, “Mr. Zhao, you can’t speak recklessly! My daughter doesn’t know you at all. Why are you causing trouble here for no reason? If you don’t leave, don’t blame us for calling the police!”
“Uncle, I’m not speaking recklessly.” Zhao Wenjie smiled calmly and suddenly produced a jade pendant, asking, “You should recognize this, right?”
The jade pendant was quite ordinary, a piece of square Nephrite jade tied with a red string, engraved with some animal patterns, indicating its age.
Han Jian examined it in surprise and finally exclaimed, “Isn’t this my mother’s keepsake? How is it in your hands?”
Zhao Wenjie nodded and said, “Uncle, it’s good you recognize it! This pendant was left by my grandfather before he passed away. He said that he and Master Han Zhengnan made an agreement when they were young. The younger generations of the two families would marry each other with this pendant as proof. Today, I am here to fulfill that agreement! Hence, Yushi is naturally my fiancée!”
His words shocked everyone once again.
“Oh my! Brother Jie wasn’t lying!” The viewers exclaimed in surprise.
Han Jian frowned.
The pendant was indeed genuine, and he vaguely remembered the old master mentioning this matter.
However, no one would be foolish enough to agree to marriage based solely on a pendant.
“Dad, what’s going on?” Han Yushi asked. Her sweet and elegant voice immediately brightened everyone’s eyes.
“It’s nothing!” Han Jian said, troubled. “Your grandfather was just fooling around when he was young and made a promise in his drunken happiness. Now it’s a problem!”
Han Yi snorted unhappily. “What’s the problem? Who still arranges marriages in this day and age? Coming here with a pendant and expecting to get a wife? He can dream on!”
“Dad, shouldn’t marriage be my decision? How can you let someone come with a pendant and marry me off? This is too disrespectful!” Han Yushi voiced her displeasure.
“Exactly!” Han Jian said in frustration. “But the old man made a promise when he was drunk. Now what do you suggest we do?”
“What else can we do? Kick him out!” Han Yi arrogantly ordered, “Hey, Surname Zhao! You toad trying to eat swan meat! There’s no fiancée for you here, but this pendant belongs to our Han family. Leave the pendant and get out!”
Han Yi’s attitude was firm, embodying the role of an arrogant rich second generation.
With the intruder at their doorstep, he didn’t care about manners and was ready for a fight.
Naturally, his attitude immediately displeased Zhao Wenjie and his tens of thousands of viewers.
“Damn, this guy is quite arrogant, a real rich second generation! Brother Jie, go get him. I support you in giving him hell!”
“I know this guy; he’s the top young master in East Sea City, Han Yi. He’s always arrogant and nobody dares to mess with him!”
“Screw the rich second generation! He has no idea who he’s dealing with. Our Brother Jie is the ghost-hunting and exorcising Taoist Master Zhao. If he doesn’t beat him to a pulp today, I’ll eat my hat!”
“Brother Jie, don’t be afraid, just go for it! Punch this guy’s face, and I’ll reward you with a plane!” The viewers excitedly encouraged.
“Hmph!” Zhao Wenjie snorted coldly.
He wasn’t surprised by Han Yi’s attitude because it was expected.
How could the villain not be arrogant before getting humiliated?
The more arrogant Han Yi was, the more Zhao Wenjie looked forward to humiliating him. He had seen many arrogant rich generations get beaten up before!
Zhao Wenjie scanned the room, portraying his protagonist demeanor and said proudly, “Fine! I came to the Han family today to fulfill my grandfather’s last wish. Since the Han family doesn’t want this marriage, I won’t force it. Farewell!”
“Wait!” Han Yi coldly said, “Did I say you could leave? Leave the pendant. Are you deaf, or do you need me to help you?”
“The pendant? This is something my grandfather left me. Do you think you’re worthy of it?” Zhao Wenjie shouted coldly, and his eyes flashed with immense power. He exuded an aura like that of a king, drawing cheers from countless viewers.
“If you don’t hand over the pendant, do you think you can walk out of the Han family?” Han Yi sneered.
“You think you can keep me here?” Zhao Wenjie scoffed. “I advise you not to overestimate yourself. Some people you just can’t mess with!”
“Who the hell do you think you are?” Han Yi roared, waving his hand. “Get him! Take the pendant and throw him out!”
“Yes!”
More than ten bodyguards in suits narrowed their eyes and spread out, surrounding Zhao Wenjie. The atmosphere immediately became tense and explosive.
A clichéd plot!
A clichéd conflict!
A showdown between the villain and the protagonist was about to erupt.
Tens of thousands of viewers cheered excitedly, and Zhao Wenjie felt a thrill, though he tried to maintain a calm and composed exterior, exuding the aura of a top expert.
“Go!”
The bodyguards shouted, and three or four of them reached out to grab Zhao Wenjie.
“Hmph!” Zhao Wenjie sneered disdainfully.
With a basic Baji Quan move, he shook and then fiercely leaned back, sending two bodyguards flying and spitting blood on the spot.
“Literary arts pacify the world, martial arts stabilize the country! Do you think you can stop me?” Zhao Wenjie shouted proudly, his fists and feet moving swiftly, striking down the bodyguards one by one.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In a chaotic fight, more than ten bodyguards were constantly sent flying, unable to get close to him, leaving everyone stunned.
“Damn, Brother Jie is awesome!” The viewers cheered excitedly.
