C183 (1/2)
At that time, other than the cars by the road and the train that was about to arrive reminding the world that the world was still running, everyone standing here would feel that the world had stopped.
The middle-aged man's expression immediately froze. He scanned the empty space once more, but didn't even find a single person standing.
Oh, that's not right. There are two more, one is Zhang Yitian, and the other is Lin Muru who is still hiding behind him.
The middle aged man did not seem to be able to remember anything else as he sprinted to Lin Muru's side.
As if examining some precious porcelain, the middle-aged man looked at it for a long time. After realizing that this slim porcelain was not damaged in the slightest, he sighed.
It's good that nothing happened to him …
The middle-aged man thought that he was looking out for Lin Muru, but did not sense anything amiss.
”F * ck!” That works too? ”One versus a dozen, yet they're all still f * cking f * cking despicable?”
”Oh god! ”This kid is really too godly …”
”This brat can't be one of their bodyguards or special forces right? ”This ability is simply too powerful …”
The number of people who raised their big thumbs towards Zhang Yitian was uncountable. The dozen of hoodlums who were knocked down on the ground were all moaning as if they were dead mothers, and the miserable state they were in was simply too horrible to look at.
The middle aged man then regained his senses, he did not even look at the ten odd people on the ground, and instead shouted at Zhang Yitian: ”Brat, what are you doing? If you dare hurt Lil Ru today, I will make sure that you will not be in trouble! ”
The middle-aged man's words were intense, as though his own daughter had been bullied by Zhang Yitian.
What kind of thing was Zhang Yitian to him? Lin Muru had already called before saying that he would bring a friend home and he was even a vegetable farmer.
When the middle-aged man thought of his identity, he naturally felt that he was a bit more noble. In any case, he could be considered a mid-tier leader. Even though he was in the provincial capital, he was still able to smash several bricks of his level.
But this did not affect him showing off his superiority to Zhang Yitian.
After counting Zhang Yitian, the middle aged man then spoke to Lin Muru amiably: ”Xiao Ru, let's go home. Your father is already waiting for you!”
Lin Muru was surprised when he saw the middle-aged man, ”Uncle Zhuo? ”Why are you here?”
This middle-aged man was originally called Zhuo Bufan, and was one of Lin Muru's father's personal secretaries. Although he was only a secretary, he had followed the right master.
”Hehe, Secretary General Lin told me to go first!” Zhuo Bufan grabbed the suitcase in Lin Muru's hands, ”The car is over there in the parking lot, let's go!”
Lin Muru looked at Zhang Yitian in shock, and realised that he did not think much of Uncle Zhuo.
Indeed, this person had nothing to do with him.
Towards his disrespect towards Zhang Yitian, Zhuo Bufan did not feel the least bit guilty. Although Zhang Yitian saved Lin Muru, and although Zhang Yitian did not have the slightest bit of disrespect towards him, and although Zhang Yitian did not even exchange a glance with him, he just did not like Zhang Yitian.
This was because Zhuo Bufan despised Zhang Yitian from the bottom of his heart, and because there was a huge disparity between their statuses. He was a dignified official and the other was just a vegetable seller.
According to what Lin Muru had said, Zhang Yitian was an upright youth, but no matter what, Zhuo Bufan still felt that he was a young lad who sold vegetables, a country bumpkin that he did not like to bother with when they were walking on the road.
Lin Muru seemed to be very clear about this temperament that had been with her father's confidante for more than ten years. She clearly knew in her heart that Zhuo Bufan didn't like Zhang Yitian, but in order to resolve this slight awkwardness, she still planned to introduce her father to each other.
”Uncle Zhuo, thank you so much for coming to pick me up!” Lin Muru had a smile on her face, she was always polite, ”Let me introduce you, this is my friend, he is called Zhang Yitian!”
”Yantian, this is my dad's … ”Friend, Uncle Zhuo!”
Zhang Yitian went up and down the enemy ranks a lot, and in the end, still had the attitude of a scumbag.
When Zhang Yitian saw the contempt and disdain in Zhuo Bufan's pair of small eyes, he couldn't be bothered to respond to them. However, due to Lin Muru's face, he still extended his hand out.
”Hello, Uncle Zhuo, Zhang Yitian!”
Zhuo Bufan glanced at him and snorted: ”Xiao Ru, your father is waiting for us. Go home, we have almost finished preparing dinner!”
”Ugh …” Lin Muru looked at Zhang Yitian with a little difficulty.
Obviously, Zhuo Bufan did not give him face either.
Lin Muru used a gaze to seek Zhang Yi's understanding and relief. In fact, she had also sat down.
If it was someone like Zhuo Bufan, Zhang Yitian would not even want to bother with him, but there was still Lin Muru among them.
Zhang Yitian smiled at Lin Muru: ”Then let's go!”
Seeing that Zhang Yitian was not angry, Lin Muru finally felt a bit more at ease. In Shanghe Village, Zhang Yitian had helped her quite a bit in terms of life and work.
