Chapter 328: Chapter 328: Don’t Meddle in Other People’s Business_1
Shangguan Yan’s Cauldron Medicine Pavilion, Qiao Changyu was aware of it, known as the number one fraudulent shop in Zhonghai. Yan’s reputation was also notorious.
Anyway, Qiao Changyu would never offend Shangguan Yan to death for Ma Tiangang’s sake. Therefore, if it was possible to resolve this matter through words, he would definitely not resort to violence.
As he approached Shangguan Yan, Qiao Changyu glanced at her indifferently, then coldly questioned her, "Shangguan Yan, you’ve swindled five million from Ma Tiangang and even turned his face into a pig’s head, don’t you think you’ve gone a bit too far?"
"Old Qiao, you’re of a venerable age, you should speak responsibly! When have I, Shangguan Yan, ever swindled anyone? Cauldron Medicine Pavilion has been in business for over a hundred years. The rules of Cauldron Medicine Pavilion were also established a century ago.
When purchasing medicine from Cauldron Medicine Pavilion, it depends on your own discernment. If your eyesight is poor, even if you have to blame someone, it can only be yourself! If you are mistaken, you must accept your loss! If I were to buy cheap ingredients at a high price in your Medicine King Temple or Ghost Market, wouldn’t I also have to accept my loss?"
Shangguan Yan’s argument seemed sensible, and Qiao Changyu found himself at a loss for words. After all, the business he conducted was similar to Shangguan Yan’s; they were cut from the same cloth.
However, since Ma Tiangang had sought his help and he had agreed to step in, he had to settle this matter tonight.
Qiao Changyu thought for a moment and came up with a bait-and-switch tactic, so he suggested, "The thing Ma Tiangang bought from you for five million, you claimed it was Red Ginseng, but in reality, it was just a carrot.
You say it was his lack of awareness, blame him, I have no objection to that. However, you beat him into a pig’s head on my turf, don’t you think you should compensate him the five million for medical expenses?"
"The reason he got beaten was his foul mouth. Simply turning his face into a pig’s head was already letting him off easy."
Qin Feng took over the conversation, glaring at Qiao Changyu as a reminder, "Old Qiao, your old bones don’t have many days left. It would be best not to meddle in other people’s business for this last bit of your life!"
Hearing Qin Feng’s words, Qiao Changyu exploded with anger.
He pointed at his nose and questioned, "Who are you? How dare you speak to me like this? And dare to curse me to death, saying I don’t have long to live?"
Seeing Qiao Changyu infuriated, Shangguan Yan quickly stepped forward, took Qin Feng by the arm, and said, "He is my husband."
This statement shocked Qiao Changyu, he looked at Shangguan Yan in disbelief and asked, "You’re married? This young man is your husband? Are you sure?"
"Of course!"
To prove that Qin Feng really was her husband, Shangguan Yan gave him a kiss on the cheek, leaving a fiery red lipstick mark on Qin Feng’s face.
Qin Feng was stunned.
Pretending to be this woman’s husband was already a loss; getting kissed by her meant an even bigger loss. After everything was settled, he had to make her pay more.
Being kissed was an added service and had to be charged for, double the rate. Otherwise, it would make him seem too cheap, as if any beautiful woman could just come up and kiss him willy-nilly.
"Since he is your husband, the account is easy to settle. He injured Ma Tiangang, so either you compensate five million for medical expenses, or I will act on behalf of Ma Tiangang. However your husband beat him, I will beat your husband the same way!"
"Heh, are you sure you want to take on my husband, Old Qiao? Although you are a fourth-grade Grandmaster and possess formidable strength, my husband’s strength is even more formidable; he could send you flying with just a slap!" After saying this, Shangguan Yan turned her head to look at Qin Feng, smiling and asking, "Isn’t that right, darling?"
Qin Feng could see that Shangguan Yan was fanning the flames, so instead of responding, he gave her a speechless look.
"Arrogance!"
Qiao Changyu let out a cold shout, then threw a punch at Qin Feng’s face, intending to leave Qin Feng’s nose bruised and his face swollen like a pig’s head.
However, as soon as his fist came close, Qin Feng slightly sidestepped and dodged it. At the same time, Qin Feng extended his leg and subtly tripped him up.
Due to his momentum and the unexpected nature of Qin Feng’s dodge, Qiao Changyu, who was wearing cloth shoes, stumbled on Qin Feng’s foot and with a thud, face-planted onto the ground, eating a mouthful of dirt mixed with dog feces.
After a bout of retching, Qiao Changyu started to vomit.
"Ptooey!"
"Ptooey ptooey!"
...
Even though he spat out the dog feces from his mouth, Qiao Changyu still felt a lingering taste. Ma Tiangang hurriedly fetched a bottle of mineral water and handed it to him.
After rinsing his mouth and recovering for a while, Qiao Changyu pointed at Qin Feng’s nose, furiously saying, "You dare to ambush me?"
Seeing that Qin Feng had the upper hand with his first move, Shangguan Yan was exceedingly smug, her beautiful face blooming with a smile more radiant than spring flowers.
She joined the conversation, her voice dripping with mirth, "Old Qiao, not only are you the Southern Protector of the Loyal Sect and the second-ranked expert, but also a fourth-grade Grandmaster. And my husband, he’s merely a fifth-grade martial master, how could he have the strength to ambush you?"
A fifth-grade martial master? This young man is a fifth-grade martial master?
