Finally, even if you know you're heavier than the other person and would overreact if you were hit, you should strike first. Otherwise, you'd be wrongly accused after being hit. It's better to vent your anger first and then worry about other things.
But these aren't the most crucial points. The most crucial point is precisely what Qiu Dingxiong said: "Who gave you the right to protect yourself?" When a person is harmed, they don't even have the right to protect themselves? The police station? Does every household in your police station have a police officer living there?
It's impossible to manage everything! As a result, evil prevails, bullies are protected, kindness is trampled on, and if you compromise, you suffer!
Contrary to what Qiu Dingxiong said, the problem wasn't legitimate self-defense, but rather excessive self-defense that was amplified to an extreme, becoming a shield for evil. Anyone who could come up with such a thing is definitely a scourge.
"Alright, alright, what about self-defense and excessive self-defense? We don't like fighting with people, there's no need to worry about those things. But Master Yin, we still need your help with this matter. I really don't know anyone in the Progress District. Could you introduce me to someone?"
"Let's have a meal together and get to know each other first?" Wei Dafa said from the side.
"Well... by the way, I heard from Boss Wei that this young Master Wang can solve the problems of these two men under my command?" Qiu Dingxiong's eyes darted around as he looked at Wang Yao.
"This... I don't have that ability. My uncle is just talking nonsense." Wang Yao hurriedly shook his head. He hadn't even tested his method of breaking up a marriage yet, so how could he use it recklessly?
Upon seeing Wang Yao's attitude, Wei Dafa immediately realized he had misunderstood. Before Zhen Huai was arrested, he had told him that Wang Yao was certain he could solve Chen Ke's problem.
Moreover, his driver, Li Zhongxiao, had introduced Wang Yao to him, praising Wang Yao's amazing abilities. He implied that the incident involving the foreign students at Changsheng University was actually Wang Yao's doing, which was truly remarkable.
Although Wei Dafa had never witnessed Wang Yao's methods firsthand, how could Wang Yao have made such a claim without any real ability? After all, neither Zhen Huai nor Li Zhongxiao were boastful people, and their words were quite credible.
So when Wei Dafa saw Wang Yao making excuses, he subconsciously assumed that Qiu Dingxiong kept saying that Zhen Huai's matter was difficult to handle, which made Wang Yao lose confidence in them and unwilling to take action.
Having been in the underworld for many years, Wei Dafa knew perfectly well that Qiu Dingxiong's claims of difficulty were simply a ploy to inflate his price; it was a common tactic used when doing favors for others.
If someone asks you to do something, and you confidently promise it, making it sound incredibly simple, it's fine if you manage to do it. But if you fail, it's a real shame, and people will look down on you for no reason.
Even if you manage to get something done for someone, their gratitude might diminish unconsciously because you described it too simply. It was just a small favor; everyone needs to ask for help sometimes. "I'll help you next time, okay?"
As a result, this matter became a trivial favor exchanged.
Therefore, whenever someone asks for a favor, an experienced person will always first make it sound like the matter is extremely difficult, so that if it can't be done, no one can blame them, since the matter is inherently difficult. This is a way of putting the unpleasant truth upfront.
But once it's done, people will be extremely grateful, after all, it's an incredibly difficult task that he's accomplished, which is completely different from ordinary social interactions.
There are many people in society who love to do favors for others, but end up feeling quite wronged, as if those who asked them for help have turned into ingrates. Those who succeeded in getting things done didn't receive thanks, while those who failed were even given the cold shoulder. When faced with such situations, it's best to first ask yourself if you made those promises in the heat of the moment.
The relationships between people are often extremely complex and cannot be explained simply by saying "gratitude" or "remembering where you've been given a chance."
The relationship between Wei Dafa and Qiu Dingxiong became even more complicated here. The two originally had no deep friendship. Wei Dafa only got involved with Qiu Dingxiong because his wife was being pestered by Wang and Zhao.
While it was said to be a favor, it was actually more of a transaction. Moreover, Qiu Dingxiong had previously done a big favor for Wei Dafa, and Wei Dafa hadn't been particularly generous in his offer. There were some subtle entanglements involved, so this time, when it was Zhen Huai's turn, Qiu Dingxiong had to put on a more assertive act.
“Master Wang, don’t underestimate our General Manager Qiu. As long as you can solve his subordinates’ problems, Master Yin’s matter will be half done,” Wei Dafa said to Wang Yao with a smile.
"Hey? I didn't agree to anything!" Qiu Dingxiong said hurriedly.
"Oh, do you think I don't know how things work out, Mr. Qiu? I remember what happened with Wang Jiabao even though you didn't mention it. I'm sure the brothers won't complain. I've already prepared some salted fish and meat from Lekoufu for you guys. I've also specially prepared a box of lotus root starch, a specialty of Hetang, for Mr. Qiu. It's quite a lot."
Wei Dafa said with a smile, as if he had given away some insignificant local specialties, but when he mentioned lotus root starch, he deliberately reached out and pinched Qiu Dingxiong's wrist.
"Hey? We're just having a simple meal, why is Mr. Wei being so polite?" Qiu Dingxiong understood immediately, knowing that there must be something fishy about that box of lotus root starch. His smile became more genuine, and he deliberately scolded Wei Dafa.
"Not at all, not at all. Wang Jiabao's matter really caused you all a lot of trouble. The matter escalated so much that I didn't sleep for several nights. I'm already in this state, so I imagine you must have been very worried. My original intention was just to teach him a simple lesson, but who knew..."
Wei Dafa said in a soft voice.
