The longer time passed, the more Xia Ruzheng felt that it was convenient to open a shop on the same street as Wen Zhichao. If there was anything, he just had to shout and Wen Zhichao would come. People nearby also knew that the Family Restaurant opened by Xia Ruzheng and the tape store opened by the white-haired boss were part of the same family, so they were usually quite caring and polite.
But there are also some people who are short-sighted. Seeing that the sound in the restaurant seems to be very good, they want to come over and cause trouble.
Xia Ruzheng was still in the kitchen when he saw Haichao running in in a panic: "Sister-in-law, there are a few people here who don't look like good people."
At this time, Haichao also followed Haisheng and called Xia Ruzheng sister-in-law.
Xia Ruzheng was stunned and said, "What do you mean by not being a good person?"
Haichao secretly glanced back and said, "It's just... I feel like he's a little hooligan, looking for trouble!"
When Xia Ruzheng reached the door, he saw a few hooligans sitting at a few tables in the middle of the store, shouting, "Where's the boss lady? Why isn't she here? Come out quickly, we brothers need to eat!"
Haisheng was a veteran in the underworld, but Haichao was still a greenhorn. Seeing such a scene, he became weak in the knees and hurried to Xia Ruzheng for help.
Xia Ruzheng said, "Go out the back door and find Zhichao and the others. Tell them how many people are here and what the situation is. I'll handle it."
Haichao stopped Xia Ruzheng, sweat pouring down his nose from his anxiety. He said, "Sister-in-law, I'll stay here. Go get Brother Chao. You're a woman..."
Xia Ruzheng shook his head and said, "You're just a clerk. If someone rushes into my kitchen to take my money box, you won't be able to stop them. This is my territory. Go quickly! You must hurry!"
Haichao thought about it and felt the same way, so he hurriedly ran along the wall towards the back door.
Xia Ruzheng walked out, wiping his hands on his apron, and said loudly, "Oh, who's the big boss? Such a grand ceremony, it really makes our little shop shine!"
The little gangster was wearing a flowered shirt, which made him look much more unruly than ordinary people. He didn't look like a good person at first glance.
When the gangsters saw Xia Ruzheng, their eyes immediately lit up. Although this woman was wearing a blue cloth shirt and had short hair cut to her ears, she looked different from other women at first glance. She had an indescribable aura that caught people's eyes and made men jealous.
"Is this the boss lady? She's really different! She's so beautiful! So cool!"
Xia Ruzheng was still smiling, without a trace of anger on her face. If Xia Ruzheng showed a woman's demeanor, their perverted psychology would be satisfied, and they would tease her even more unscrupulously.
"You guys don't look bad, but you have to dress so uncouthly. It's disgusting just to look at you. Now, if you want to eat, order now. If you don't want to eat, get out of here. Don't get in the way of my business!"
"Oh, you're quite a bitch, but I'm from Guangdong and I don't like spicy food! If I don't teach you a lesson today, I'd be incredibly arrogant."
Wen Zhichao still hadn't arrived at this time. Xia Ruzheng couldn't help but feel anxious, but he didn't show it on his face. He just said, "Really? You have all kinds of colorful things here, do you have any rare colors for me to see? But I also want to remind you here-" Xia Ruzheng gestured with his hands one by one, "You'd better open your eyes and know who you can and can't offend. Otherwise, you won't know how you died!"
"you--"
Xia Ruzheng's tone and words seemed to frighten them. For a moment, they didn't know what to do. What if they really offended someone they shouldn't have? This little woman dared to open a shop on this street, so she said they had someone to rely on. If she didn't have anyone to rely on, she would just nod and bow when she saw them, offering cigarettes and money. No one was as boastful as this little woman.
But if I was frightened by a few words, and word got out, how could I still maintain my dignity? How could I survive in this neighborhood? I wouldn't be able to survive, and I wouldn't even have food to eat.
The fat man in the lead thought for a moment, then made up his mind and said, "Do you think I'm not easily frightened? You think you can scare me with just a few words? I think you're ignorant, you little bitch. Brothers, smash it up! Smash this store! I can see you're still so arrogant!"
"Who dares!" Xia Ruzheng's roar startled everyone. They watched helplessly as the beautiful young woman pulled out a kitchen knife and shouted, "Whoever breaks a table leg, I'll break his leg! Whoever breaks a chair, I'll break his arm!"
Now everyone is really protected. This girl is really a tiger. She even took out a knife!
Before they could react, a group of people came to the door.
"Who? Who is causing trouble in my sister-in-law's shop?"
When Xia Ruzheng heard Haisheng's voice, she felt like a deflated ball and her legs started to go weak, but she still held on and didn't show any fear.
When the group heard that help had indeed arrived, their arrogance was like a fire doused by heavy rain, and in an instant even the black smoke disappeared.
Xia Ruzheng took a deep breath, then unsteadily placed the knife in his hand on a nearby table. He said, "These guys said they were going to smash my shop! They're really brave!"
"Who dares to smash my sister-in-law's store? They are simply courting death!" Awang said, and the people outside came in and surrounded those little ruffians.
Wen Zhichao came to Xia Ruzheng's side and asked softly, "Are you okay?"
Seeing that the little punks' attention was no longer on her, Xia Ruzheng hurriedly leaned towards Wen Zhichao. Only then did Wen Zhichao notice that her hands were cold.
