Chapter 271 Encountering a纨绔 Again

Chapter 271 Encountering a纨绔 Again

He Fei looked away and said, "Didn't you just tell them to hit me?"

"They seem unable to make a move now, so you should do it yourself."

"No, no, no, no!" Having already witnessed the fates of the skinny and fat men, the纨绔 (wán kù, a spoiled, dissolute young man) naturally wouldn't risk his life again. He said, "I was wrong, young lady, please be magnanimous and forgive me this time..."

Before she could finish speaking, He Fei punched him, and only stopped after the playboy was too exhausted to even beg for mercy.

After He Fei left, the playboy, with the help of his two lackeys, finally managed to get up from the ground and kicked the fat man and the skinny man's buttocks twice.

"Two useless pieces of trash, you can't even beat one woman."

"Young master, this woman is different from other women." At least they had never seen such a formidable woman before.

This is simply freakish! They even began to suspect that it might be a man in disguise, after all, this was the first time in their lives they had been beaten like this by a woman.

"Useless, useless, useless!" The playboy was furious and kicked the two men in the buttocks several more times. The two men dared not be angry or speak after being kicked. The playboy continued to kick them until he calmed down a bit before stopping.

Seeing the two lackeys still standing there unmoved, he said unhappily, "Why aren't you coming up and helping me up?"

"Yes, yes, young master, please take your time."

The playboy was seething with resentment; he felt like he'd had the worst luck imaginable today.

One day, He Fei was going to the street to buy some things. After walking a few steps, she saw a vendor selling bracelets that she liked, so she stopped and wanted to try them on.

But as soon as He Fei entered the store, she found the owner haggling with other customers. His words were full of sarcasm and bitterness, as if he didn't want to give up a single cent.

He Fei laughed when she saw this.

I was thinking that I should have a good talk with this boss and see who was more capable.

"Boss, how much is this bracelet?" He Fei quickly spotted one she liked and walked over to the shopkeeper with it in her hand.

As He Fei spoke, she kept glancing at the shop owner, trying to gauge his reaction. She was preparing to decide how to negotiate the price based on his response.

Sure enough, the shopkeeper saw that He Fei's attire didn't suggest she was poor. He assumed she was just like the other customers, without any ulterior motives. He then planned to rip her off. A smile crept across his face as he thought about it.

"This bracelet isn't expensive, just a few taels of silver. Since you like it so much, I'll treat it as a favor and give you a discount. You can take it home now." The shopkeeper had a fawning smile on his face.

Little did the boss know that He Fei was not like other customers who would be at his mercy.

When He Fei heard the price, she knew the shop owner's smile was malicious. He was either after her money or her looks.

The boss wants to do something bad to her or her wallet, which is why he treats her differently than other customers.

"Boss, could you give me a discount? I'm not that old. Can you give me this bracelet for a lower price? You said you were buying it to improve your luck!" He Fei cleverly continued, wanting to know what the boss would say next.

But before the boss could figure out how to respond, He Fei saw a familiar figure outside the shop window.

Isn't this the same spoiled brat from last time?

After thinking for a long time, He Fei finally recognized the figure from behind. She hadn't seen him in a long time, and thought to herself: I want to see if he's remembered his lesson from last time. Will he be up to something bad again this time?

"Then let's make it even cheaper." The shopkeeper noticed that He Fei's brows were furrowed, and he felt that He Fei might not be as easy to rip off as he had thought. He was very dissatisfied with the price, but he was unwilling to give up this business, so he made a concession.

But He Fei had long since lost interest in buying bracelets; she just wanted to see what "good deeds" the playboys outside were up to.

So he snapped at the shop owner, "Too expensive, I don't want it!" and strode out of the store.

Upon hearing this, the boss felt he had misjudged people, letting a swan that was practically within his grasp slip away. He was filled with deep regret.

However, after He Fei left, she thought of the bracelet again. For some reason, the bracelet was very attractive to her, so she directly said to the shopkeeper, "Half a tael of silver, sell or not?"

The shopkeeper, fearing He Fei would run away, quickly said, "Sell, sell, sell!"

After buying the bracelet, He Fei felt that it was quite a coincidence that she had gone out to buy a bracelet and then happened to see the spoiled brat she had just dealt with a few days ago.

How can there be such coincidences in this world?

Thinking about it, He Fei walked out of the shop and found that the person outside was indeed that playboy.

But since the spoiled young man had his back to He Fei, she couldn't see anything. He seemed to be doing something, but it certainly wasn't anything good.

Seeing this, He Fei approached, wanting to see what the spoiled brat was up to, lest she miss him doing something "good."

But as He Fei expected, when she got closer, she found that the spoiled brat was indeed a leopard that couldn't change its spots.

A spoiled brat is stalking a woman.

The woman looked very young and incredibly beautiful; she didn't seem like the wife or concubine of that纨绔子弟 (a spoiled, dissolute young man). Why would that纨绔子弟 be following such a perfectly respectable woman?

He Fei couldn't help but feel puzzled. While He Fei was pondering this, something unpleasant happened.

The spoiled young man saw the woman walk into a small alley and felt his opportunity had arrived, so he followed her into the alley, ready to make his move.

But to her surprise, the woman wasn't one to give in easily. Seeing the spoiled young man about to attack her, she quickly ran out of the alley, shouting as she ran, "What do you want? Stay away from me!"

Passersby, seeing this scene, all stopped to watch, wanting to see what had happened between the two of them.

"This young lady is very beautiful."

"Please help me, I don't know this person." The woman was frightened that so many people had stopped in their tracks, so she quickly asked the passersby for help. But she didn't expect that so many passersby had a "not my problem" mentality, just watching her indifferently or with amusement, without offering her any assistance.

Seeing that no one was helping the woman, the playboy smiled and said to everyone, "Let it go. She is my concubine. We just had a little argument, and she doesn't want to come home with me. I'm sorry to have bothered you all."

The crowd left when they saw there was no melon to eat. They were still wondering what was going on, and when did they get such a difficult concubine?
