Fu Wan looked over when she heard the voice and saw that it was the young boy at the next table. His features were somewhat similar to He Guohua's, but the boy had three white eyes and his appearance was far less friendly than He Guohua's.
"Mr. He, do you know him?"
Fu Wan put down her chopsticks and looked at He Guohua questioningly. The ease and smile on He Guohua's face had long since disappeared.
What are you doing here?
"Tsk tsk, Third Brother, you're confused. Of course, we're eating at a restaurant. Otherwise, what would I be doing here, taking a dump?"
These words immediately drew laughter from the young people around them. The woman sitting next to the man frowned and put down her fork.
"He Guoli, are you crazy? Talking about this during dinner?"
"Then I'll say sorry!" the man said apologetically, but there was no remorse on his face.
"There's nothing I can do. I feel nauseous just listening to these country bumpkins talk. Third Brother, I'm not trying to be mean, but these guys don't look like fishermen at all. You're not being fooled by the pretty girls from the mainland, are you?"
"He Guoli, shut up!"
He Guohua could no longer hold back. He had gone to great lengths to invite Fu Wan, and she had just gotten off the plane and hadn't even finished her meal when she was ridiculed by others.
Who taught you to be so rude?
Whether they can fish or not, they're my guests. If you dare swear again, I won't hesitate to teach you a lesson on Dad's behalf!
He Guohua's face was gloomy. He pointed at He Guoli's nose and warned him that since all his cronies were here, He Guoli naturally couldn't lose face.
"Ouch, that scared me! You want to hit me?"
"Come here, He Guohua, why don't you slap me and see if Dad will still let you into the He family today if you hit me!"
The old man has gone to the mountain resort; let's see who can back you up now!
He Guoli looked completely smug, and as she spoke, she moved closer to him. Her smug behavior made Fu Wan grind her teeth.
It had been a long time since she had seen someone so deserving of a beating. Although she was new to Hong Kong, Fu Wan didn't mind teaching He Guohua a lesson in public.
He Guohua was so angry at He Guoli's words that he was practically steaming with rage, and his hands were trembling uncontrollably.
Tsk, it seems the He family's situation is a bit complicated. Not to mention the others, even the two brothers in front of us each have their own support at home.
Seeing that He Guohua remained silent, He Guoli was very pleased with himself and turned around to provoke Fu Wan.
"Northern girl... Ouch, you motherfucker!"
He Guoli was so busy flirting that he didn't pay attention to his footing. He tripped over Bai Qianzhou's chair leg and fell flat on his face.
Not only that, he knelt down directly in front of Fu Wan, and Fu Wan couldn't help but quietly give Bai Qianzhou a thumbs up.
"Mr. He, your brother has given me such a grand gesture on our first meeting. I didn't bring a red envelope with me. Do you have one I can borrow?"
He Guohua was taken aback when he heard this, but then he realized what Fu Wan was talking about.
"Yes, yes, yes, red envelopes, right? Oh, I remember you mainlanders have the custom of kowtowing to give red envelopes, but isn't that something you have to do during the Lunar New Year?"
"Tsk, your younger brother has already wished me a Happy New Year in advance. It would be inappropriate if I didn't give him one. If I don't, people will say that people from the mainland are stingy."
Heaven help me, in mainland China, the custom of kowtowing is always reserved for juniors to seniors. Since your younger brother treats me as an elder, I'll give him a red envelope to buy some candy!
Fu Wan's words made He Guohua laugh, and he immediately took out a red envelope from his bag and handed it to her.
He actually had one in his bag; it was leftover from a friend's wedding a while ago, and he never expected it to come in handy now.
Wow, just because of what Fu Wan said, he feels great today.
He Guoli usually flaunts his power because of his parents, and He Guohua can only secretly retaliate in order to avoid upsetting his grandfather who has raised him since childhood.
I didn't expect my frustration today to be reported so quickly.
He Guoli, who was kneeling on the ground, was furious. To be honest, that fall had really stunned him.
Although he tripped over the chair leg himself, he didn't believe it had nothing to do with those scoundrels from the mainland.
"You idiot, come help me up!"
He Guoli shouted angrily at his friends, and soon two young men ran over and helped him up.
The fall was quite hard, and He Guoli felt excruciating pain in his leg. It took him a while to recover before he could walk again.
However, just as he recovered, a red envelope appeared in front of him.
"What are you doing, you damn loser, trying to curry favor with me?"
When He Guoli saw that it was Fu Wan who handed him the red envelope, he immediately felt that his momentum had returned.
"I'm telling you, this isn't going to end here. Even if you go back to the mainland, I will never let you off the hook!"
Fu Wan chuckled, "Grandson, stop talking tough. Take your red envelope and go play over there. Don't delay our meal."
Sun Guoli was speechless at Fu Wan's words, and then roared angrily.
"Who are you calling 'grandson'?"
Fu Wan was fearless.
“I called you, and you came up here and gave me such a big bow. In our area, we only give such a big bow when a grandson asks his grandmother for a red envelope.”
Come on, take this red envelope and go play over there!
She stuffed the red envelope into Sun Guoli's palm, and Sun Guoli almost vomited blood. He turned his head and saw Sun Guohua smiling happily beside him.
"You...you all!"
I'm going back to tell Dad!
Fu Wan clicked her tongue. "No wonder he's called a grandson. He's such a grown man and he's still suing his father. I don't know what He Guohua is thinking, letting such an idiot bully him."
Sun Guoli was actually several years younger than Fu Wan. Seeing that Fu Wan and the others ignored him and picked up their chopsticks to continue eating, Sun Guoli felt his blood pressure soaring.
Unfortunately, he is now injured in the leg and cannot continue to retaliate.
His friend, seeing this, became curious and quickly picked up the red envelope that Sun Guoli had dropped on the ground. He opened it and found a five-hundred-dollar Hong Kong dollar note inside. After glancing at Fu Wan in surprise, he turned around and happily ran to find Sun Guoli.
"Hey, Guoli, Guoli, that girl from the mainland is really generous! Look, she gave me a big cotton quilt!"
Sun Guoli snorted coldly, his anger lessening somewhat.
Ha, this mainland girl knows her stuff; she didn't insult him with a ten-yuan crab!
Fu Wan had no idea what he was thinking. Fu Jian had exchanged the money for her in advance, perhaps because he was worried she wouldn't have enough money, so he exchanged it for high-denomination Hong Kong dollars.
Even this five hundred is the smallest denomination.
"Haha, Miss Fu, thank you so much. I'll put the money for the red envelopes on my tab later, and I'll transfer it to you along with your service fee!"
He Guohua was very happy. Although he hadn't used the revenge method he had just used since he became an adult, he had to admit that sometimes, various roundabout methods were not as straightforward as this.
Five hundred Hong Kong dollars is nearly two hundred yuan in mainland currency. This amount may not seem like much to them, but for mainlanders, it represents more than half a year's salary.
Fu Wan waved her hand dismissively, "It's alright, Boss He, let's ignore him and have lunch first. This afternoon, you can take me out to sea to get familiar with this area, so I can help you win the fishing competition the day after tomorrow!"
