Chapter 154: Chapter 154: He is My Boss
Zeng Qiang’s lackey pointed at Wang Hao’s nose and cursed.
"Say that again if you dare!"
No sooner had he finished cursing than Wang Hao grabbed the man’s finger and twisted it, prompting a scream of pain as the man’s body contorted in the direction of the bent digit, his face twisted in agony.
Then Wang Hao delivered a kick to the man’s abdomen, sending him flying into a group of people behind him. More than ten people collapsed in a heap.
The group was shocked by the scene before them, having not expected Wang Hao to know martial arts. freёweɓnovel.com
Seeing this, Zeng Qiang’s heart began to waver; with just one kick, Wang Hao had taken down a swath of them. If it really came to a fight, he wasn’t sure he could win.
As the group got up, ready to continue the fight with Wang Hao, Zeng Qiang quickly raised his hand to stop them.
"Stop fighting; let’s not bully you with our numbers. We’ll wait for that beauty to come out. I’ll make sure you’re completely convinced of your defeat," Zeng Qiang said viciously.
"Really? I’ll have to see how capable you are!"
Wang Hao retorted, not to be outdone.
With a sneer, Zeng Qiang led his lackeys away.
He had pursued countless girls before and had never failed; he didn’t believe there were women who weren’t vain. He was very confident in his ability to win over Qi Shihan.
Meanwhile, the exam bell rang; the test had already started inside, and Wang Hao, pulling Xia Xue along, prepared to return to the company.
"Where’s Huang Dingfeng? He just disappeared all of a sudden; he was just here!"
Xia Xue turned to call Huang Dingfeng but didn’t see him, so she curiously asked Wang Hao.
"He was probably scared off by those guys just now. Forget him, it’s better if he leaves!"
Wang Hao replied indifferently.
He couldn’t care less about where Huang Dingfeng had gone. If those people scared him off, so much the better. He would rather shake him off, like shedding an annoying plaster that’s stuck to one’s skin all day. If that means he was rid of him, Wang Hao couldn’t be happier.
The four-hour morning exam session was about to end. Before the final bell rang, many parents had already gathered outside the school to pick up their children.
Many students began handing in their papers early, but the gate could not yet be opened.
They had to wait until the exam bell rang and the invigilators had sealed the papers before the gate would open.
So, the students waited inside the school.
Moreover, the school gate had slowly gathered many students preparing to rush out the moment it opened.
That’s when Zeng Qiang, bearing a large bouquet of roses, arrived at the school gate. His followers quickly went to the gate, pushing parents waiting to meet the students aside.
Just as this was happening, Wang Hao also arrived at the school. Seeing Zeng Qiang’s setup, he frowned, realizing that Zeng Qiang was serious this time.
"Little beauty, I’ve come to pick you up!"
Zeng Qiang, following the cleared path, walked to the school gate and called out to Qi Shihan with a smile.
Qi Shihan glanced at Zeng Qiang, gave him a look of distaste, and then turned her gaze toward Wang Hao, who was slowly approaching from behind.
A smirk crossed Zeng Qiang’s face as he gestured to his lackeys with his eyes, and they immediately encircled Wang Hao.
With legs spread and fists clenched, a ferocious look in his eyes, Zeng Qiang stared down Wang Hao, ready to fight at any moment.
Seeing this display, Wang Hao realized that their plan was to humiliate him in front of all these people.
This time, he couldn’t just take it; so he too clenched his fists, ready for whatever came next. It was they who had come looking for trouble, after all, they couldn’t blame Wang Hao for what was to happen.
The tension was about to ignite when suddenly several cars drove into the school grounds. The first two were Land Rovers, followed by three Mercedes and then a few vans.
One of the Land Rovers drove right up to the school gate.
According to the exam regulations, parking at the school gate was not allowed. With so many vehicles arriving at once, the security guards were at a loss.
Just as the security guard was about to go out and stop them, all the car doors swung open simultaneously, and from them emerged burly men, intimidating the guard into hastily retreating.
Zeng Qiang and his cronies were also taken aback.
However, the strapping men getting out of the cars immediately lined up behind Wang Hao, all calling out in unison.
"Bro Hao!"
Seeing these people, Zeng Qiang felt a wave of panic inside him, retreating step by step in fear.
All the candidates and parents present were also startled, completely clueless about what was going on.
Liu Jie just arrived at the school gate and was so scared by the scene that he didn’t dare to go out, wondering where all these people had come from.
Zeng Qiang couldn’t see Wang Hao as someone with much clout; how could so many people come forward for him? Could it be that he had paid them to do so?
So he shouted at these people.
"Open your eyes and see who I am. Whatever Wang Hao is paying you, I’ll give you twice as much, as long as you haul him out and give him a beating!"
"Oh, quite bold we are!"
With a powerful voice, Akun exited the car and glanced at Zeng Qiang dismissively.
Upon seeing Akun, Zeng Qiang’s face dramatically changed.
Even though Zeng Qiang was a big shot’s son, he was still just a youngster; he couldn’t compare with someone like Akun who had been an established power for years.
"Akun, what is this about?"
Zeng Qiang demanded of Akun.
The whole audience was taken aback upon hearing that the person who had arrived was Akun.
Even hearing Akun’s name from someone else typically sent shivers down their spines, let alone seeing him show up today in support of Wang Hao.
If even Akun was standing up for Wang Hao, then this guy had to be something special, certainly not the hillbilly they had been mocking.
The school security guard hid inside, feeling relieved that he hadn’t gone out to intervene.
Otherwise, given Akun’s temper, he might have been beaten half to death.
"What’s the matter? You have the nerve to ask?"
Akun glared furiously, pointing his finger at Zeng Qiang’s nose as he yelled.
"Bro Hao is my boss. Since you dare to mess with my boss, you’re as good as messing with me. Now tell me, what’s this all about?"
Zeng Qiang was stunned by Akun’s words; he had never heard that Wang Hao was Akun’s boss.
So he couldn’t help but look toward Wang Hao. Akun was already one of Chicheng County’s top figures; this kid could be Akun’s boss—what was his background?
The others were also thoroughly shocked. They could never have imagined that someone who looked like a mere farmer would actually be the boss of Chicheng County’s overlord, Akun.
Everyone was speculating about Wang Hao’s real identity.
"Wow, Shi Han, your brother is so cool!"
"Right, right, there are like only three Land Rovers in all of Chicheng County, and your brother managed to call in two of them, so awesome!"
"Even Akun calls him his boss; that’s just too cool! Shi Han, could you introduce him to me? I want to be one of his followers!"
At this point, all of Shi Han’s classmates surrounded her, looking at Wang Hao with admiration.
Shi Han had become the center of everyone’s attention, as they all crowded around her, asking about Wang Hao and admiring her for having such a great brother.
In this moment, Shi Han’s vanity was greatly satisfied. She felt an enormous affection for Wang Hao inside.
As for Zeng Qiang, he couldn’t keep his composure. Having lost so much face today, how could he continue to mix in Chicheng County?
"Wasn’t someone just saying they wanted to drag my boss out and give him a beating? Take him out!"
Akun glared menacingly at Zeng Qiang, gesturing with a wave of his hand. Then, swarming forward toward Zeng Qiang, they approached...
