Zhang Qiangu's face turned red and white after hearing what Man Xingyue said.
The reason why he didn't stand up at the beginning was because he didn't want to get into trouble and be hated by the city lord, which would be detrimental to his future development.
He stood up now because he really wanted to do Jiang Jiaojiao a favor.
But he can think so, you can't say it out loud.
Now that you've said it, how can I live my life?
Fortunately, the onlookers knew Zhang Qiangu and stood up to speak up for him.
"Little girl, you're not right to say that. Zhang Qiangu is a well-known philanthropist here. He has helped many people, but he's not someone who flatters the powerful and looks down on the weak as you say."
"That's right! Zhang Qiangu is a famous person in Yangzhou. He loves helping the poor. He is highly respected and has an excellent reputation!"
"Don't get too angry. You can bite whoever you catch. Zhang Qiangu is someone you can't touch."
When Gu Fei heard these words, he looked at Zhang Qiangu in surprise.
You can't tell, this middle-aged man is quite popular.
But Man Xingyue's words are true.
The man surnamed Zhang was indeed indifferent when Jiang Jiaojiao bullied others, but he stood up for Jiang Jiaojiao when she bullied him.
And he claims to be righteous.
Isn't this a hypocrite?
He stopped watching and stepped forward, saying, "Since Mr. Zhang is so nosy, why don't we just see what's right? We were walking peacefully down the street when Miss Jiang and Mr. Wu Zhengqing suddenly rushed out and told us to get out. We refused, so they made us kneel down and apologize."
"Please tell me, Mr. Zhang, whether this behavior is right or wrong!"
Zhang Qiangu was completely stunned.
Because as soon as the man opened his mouth, he knew what he wanted to say.
In order to stop the man, he tried to interrupt him several times, but strangely, every time he opened his mouth to speak, the other party's voice would suddenly rise, firmly suppressing his own voice, making him unable to say anything.
I can only listen to him finish his words.
What's going on?
"Mr. Zhang, you're a man who loves to help the weak and the needy, aren't you? You're a man who loves to meddle in other people's affairs, so why are you so evasive in answering my questions? Why don't you dare to open your mouth?"
Gu Fei looked at Zhang Qiangu with a sneer, determined to expose his hypocritical mask.
Zhang Qiangu's face suddenly turned red and white.
There were so many people watching, and many of them were holding their mobile phones.
If he said in front of so many people that Jiang Jiaojiao was not wrong, his reputation would definitely plummet.
Because Jiang Jiaojiao is notoriously arrogant and domineering in Yangzhou.
But if he said he was wrong, Jiang Jiaojiao would hate him from then on, and he might not be able to attend many high society events.
"Speak!"
Seeing that he was silent, Gu Fei raised his voice and reminded him again.
The people around were staring at Zhang Qiangu with frowns on their faces.
Does it take so long to think about such a simple question?
Could it be that Zhang Qiangu really doesn't dare to offend Jiang Jiaojiao and doesn't dare to answer?
If that's the case, then what he just said about standing up just to uphold justice was a blatant lie.
Zhang Qiangu was so anxious!
On the one hand, his reputation was ruined, and on the other hand, he offended Jiang Jiaojiao.
Just when the onlookers began to doubt whether Zhang Qiangu was really a hypocrite, Zhang Qiangu finally couldn't hold it anymore.
He made his choice.
"Miss Jiang was indeed wrong in this matter, but..."
He was going to start by criticizing and then praising her. He first said that Jiang Jiaojiao was wrong, then said that she had her reasons for doing so, and then put the blame of being excessive on Man Xingyue's head.
Who knew that as soon as he said the first sentence, before he could finish the rest, Jiang Jiaojiao got furious and interrupted him harshly.
"Zhang Qiangu, how dare you say I'm wrong? I gave you so many resources, my father gave you so many opportunities, even manipulating the backstage to squeeze out the original champion and give you the first place. This is how you repay my father, this is how you repay me!"
What?
When these words were spoken, the onlookers were stunned.
Backstage operations champion?
This can't be referring to the previous calligraphy competition, right?
Many famous calligraphers came to that calligraphy competition. Among them, a young calligrapher emerged as a dark horse, received unanimous praise, and was even expected to win the championship.
Who knew that when the champion was being selected, two respected judges changed their votes at the last minute, causing the young man to miss the championship and Zhang Qiangu to win it.
There were some questioning voices on the Internet at the time, but because Zhang Qiangu had such a good reputation, no one dared to say anything bad about him, and the matter was left unresolved.
After hearing what Jiang Jiaojiao said, everyone remembered it again.
Could it be true?
Zhang Qiangu was also dumbfounded.
This idiot, how could she tell this to anyone?
This matter was the result of the joint efforts of the city lord, the judges, and the organizers of the competition. By saying this, isn't she putting the city lord, the judges, and the organizers on the fire at the same time?
"Ms. Jiang, don't talk nonsense just because you're angry. What championship, what operation? I don't know what you're talking about. Please think twice before you act!"
After hearing his reminder, Jiang Jiaojiao realized that she had said something she shouldn't have said, so she snorted and turned her head away.
"Then tell me, am I wrong in this matter?"
Zhang Qiangu said angrily, "Miss Jiang is right or wrong. Miss Jiang knows it very well. I just feel that regardless of whether Miss Jiang is wrong or not, this Miss Man should not use violence to solve the problem."
"Besides, Miss Man, you've already taught Miss Jiang a lesson, so why are you still holding on to her?"
He talked for a long time, but finally put the blame on Man Xingyue.
It’s a pity that Man Xingyue cannot be controlled by him.
Gu Fei would not allow him to throw dirty water on him.
"Since Mr. Zhang has said that this is Jiang Jiaojiao's fault, then we should ask Jiang Jiaojiao to admit her mistake and apologize. Of course, she should not only apologize to us, but also to everyone present who was disturbed or frightened by her. Is that okay?"
"As long as she apologizes, we'll let bygones be bygones for what happened today, how about that?"
this……
Zhang Qiangu was in trouble again.
It is reasonable and appropriate for Jiang Jiaojiao to apologize.
The passersby present must have felt the same way.
But Jiang Jiaojiao will definitely not agree!
He couldn't help but look at Jiang Jiaojiao in embarrassment, and sure enough, he saw Jiang Jiaojiao snort in disdain, cross her arms and turn her head away.
I don't intend to pay any attention to them at all.
Zhang Qiangu could only helplessly say: "Who to ask to apologize and who not to apologize, that's your business, I can't butt in. I can only say, Miss Man, you can no longer blindly use violence to solve problems. Well, this matter is between you two girls, I won't say any more."
After saying this, he put his hands behind his back and quickly turned around and left.
If he stayed any longer, he was afraid that he would lose all his face and dignity.
It’s really not worth paying such a huge price just to curry favor with Jiang Jiaojiao. It’s better to run away quickly.
