This is a young man in his twenties, dressed in a well-fitting suit.
He had mousse on his hair and his hair was slicked back in a shiny slicked-back style. He held a brick-sized mobile phone in one hand and a black leather bag in the other.
This is the most fashionable outfit for wealthy young people in this era, but in Hu Yuan's opinion, it is not only tacky but also vulgar.
However, since the other party was Murong Wan's friend, Hu Yuan couldn't say anything. He just suppressed his laughter and quietly looked at the other party.
"Wan'er, where are you going? Do you want me to drive you?"
The young man walked over quickly, looking excited.
When he spoke, he deliberately emphasized the word "driving," as if he was deliberately saying that he had a car and money.
Murong Wan frowned. "Yan Kai, we don't seem to know each other that well. Please call me by my name!"
Her voice was cold and aloof, as if she wanted to immediately distance herself from the other person.
"No way, Wan'er, our two families have been friends for generations. What do you mean we're not that familiar? Where are you going? Let me treat you to a meal." Yan Kai seemed completely unconcerned about the other party's coldness, displaying extreme enthusiasm.
"No need, I'm going to have dinner with my friend. You go ahead and do your thing." Murong Wan shook her head, directly refusing the other party's request.
"friend?"
Upon hearing this, Yan Kai looked at Hu Yuan standing next to Murong Wan, as if he had never noticed him before.
"No way, Wan'er? Don't tell me this country bumpkin is your friend?" Yan Kai burst out laughing, seemingly not believing Murong Wan's words.
Hu Yuan remained completely unmoved upon hearing the other party's words.
In fact, he could clearly see that the other party was comparing him to himself, and the more they put him down, the more they seemed to elevate their own status.
Hu Yuan was utterly disdainful of this behavior.
But Murong Wan, who was beside him, didn't think so. Murong Wan's brows were furrowed and her face was very unpleasant.
"Yan Kai, I don't care what you think, but I won't allow you to insult my friend!"
"Wan'er, I'm not insulting him, but look at his appearance..."
Yan Kai spoke while gesturing with his eyes.
Because it had just rained in Pujiang, Hu Yuan had to walk a long way to the bank, and his pants were covered in mud.
Coupled with his wrinkled, rustic clothes, it was clear that he was a slovenly country bumpkin.
Hearing Yan Kai's comments, Murong Wan's expression darkened further. "Yan Kai, I'm telling you again! This is my friend, and his image is none of your business! If you have nothing else to do, please move aside; we're going to eat!"
“Wan’er, I’m doing this for your own good! It’s beneath your dignity to be friends with someone like that. I don’t think your bank’s leaders would want you to know someone like that either, would they?” Despite being coldly rebuked by Murong Wan, Yan Kai remained unfazed and continued to express his thoughts.
"Hu Yuan, let's go!"
Ignoring him completely, Murong Wan grabbed Hu Yuan's sleeve, ready to tell him to leave.
Seeing that his persuasion was ineffective, Yan Kai was not angry, but instead turned his attention to Hu Yuan.
"Hey! Kid, I don't care where you're from or what tricks you used to deceive Wan'er. Get out of here right now, or I'll make sure you have nowhere to stand in Pujiang!" Yan Kai sneered and coldly cursed at Hu Yuan.
"Yan Kai, that's enough! If you want to get lost, then get lost. It's none of your business to criticize my friends!" Murong Wan's voice was cold, her gaze sharp as a knife, and she retorted without any politeness.
"Kid, you really are a spineless coward? Always hiding behind women, why don't you stand up and let Wan'er speak? What kind of trash are you?" Yan Kai ignored Murong Wan's words and pointed at Hu Yuan, shouting loudly.
"Take your finger back! Didn't your parents teach you how to respect others?"
Hu Yuan broke his silence and spoke in a cold voice with narrowed eyes.
"Oh! So it can talk. I thought it was mute! You think you can lecture me? I won't take it back, what can you do to me?" Yan Kai ignored Hu Yuan's words and continued to provoke him.
"How about that? Humph!"
Hu Yuan snorted and then quickly reached out and grabbed the other person's fingers.
"you?"
Yan Kai was surprised that his opponent was so swift and decisive, taking action immediately.
He was about to say something when he felt a sharp pain in his finger.
Ouch!
With a scream, Yan Kai's face changed color.
“Hu Yuan, you…” Murong Wan’s heart tightened; she really hadn’t expected the other party to actually make a move.
It's important to know that Yan Kai's family has considerable influence. His parents are both government officials, and although they may not hold high positions, they are still very powerful in Pujiang.
If the other party really wanted to deal with Hu Yuan, a nobody from out of town, it would be incredibly easy.
She was indeed annoyed by Yan Kai and didn't care about him, but that didn't mean Hu Yuan could ignore him as well.
Moreover, Hu Yuan's situation is really not good. If something really happens to him, it will be a huge problem for him.
Hu Yuan smiled and shook his head at Murong Wan, giving her a reassuring look.
Although I haven't known Hu Yuan for very long, judging from his words and actions, he is not an impulsive person.
So when Hu Yuan gave her a reassuring look, Murong Wan felt relieved and didn't say anything more.
"I don't care how you act in front of others, but don't come looking for trouble! Otherwise, I'll be the one who suffers the consequences, understand?" Hu Yuan threatened Yan Kai with a smile.
"It hurts...it hurts, it hurts...let me go, or else..."
"What? You're still threatening me? Believe me or not, I'll break your fingers?"
After Hu Yuan finished speaking, he increased the pressure on his hands.
"Ah! It hurts...it hurts...let me go, I know I was wrong, I know..."
In his later years, Hu Yuan had specifically learned some special grappling techniques from retired special forces soldiers, so dealing with a lazy guy like Yan Kai would be quite easy for him.
"Behave yourself! Or you'll regret it!"
Hu Yuan snorted coldly, then loosened his grip and gently pushed Yan Kai forward, sending him staggering back a considerable distance.
Tears welled up in Yan Kai's eyes as he gasped for breath and wailed in pain.
Hu Yuan didn't care about him and said directly to Murong Wan, "Let's go, Murong, let's go eat? I think these flies shouldn't be able to stop us."
With a soft "pfft".
Murong Wan chuckled softly. She really hadn't expected Hu Yuan to compare Yan Kai to a fly. But the other man's appearance and behavior really were like a fly, always buzzing around her...
Watching Hu Yuan and Murong Wan leave, chatting and laughing, Yan Kai, rubbing his swollen fingers, was filled with resentment.
