Chapter 149: Not Someone to Mess With Either!

~8 min read 1,534 words

Tang Ye walked out of the elevator and heard arguing coming from inside the home.

Pushing open the door, he saw Qin Lan surrounded by a group of people.

Their own renovation workers were being held down tightly.

Although Qin Lan had kept saying that the renovation was left to Tang Ye and Du Xi to handle.

But, once Tang Ye had found the renovation company and finalized the plans, she still felt uneasy, so she would take some time every day to run over to the house in Xiyue Garden to see what stage the renovation had reached.

When Qin Lan was chatting with the property management lady, she heard that someone upstairs was knocking down a load-bearing wall, which immediately felt wrong to her, so she contacted other owners to report the situation to property management.

This house was a wedding home prepared for her son and daughter-in-law.

If a load-bearing wall were knocked down, perhaps no problems would be visible for a while, but it would inevitably feel unsettling.

Seeing Qin Lan being bullied, the fire in Tang Ye's heart flared up instantly!

He used both hands to forcefully push the crowd apart and squeezed in.

Tang Ye blocked the way in front of Qin Lan, his gaze icy, and he shouted loudly, "What do you want to do?"

"You ask her!" The woman speaking looked to be about forty years old, her waist as thick as a water barrel; as she spoke, she pointed her finger at Qin Lan and cursed angrily, "Stinking woman, busybody, rotten slut! You dare run to property management to complain about me? You want to make my home renovation stop? Just based on you, can you stop me?"

The fire "whooshed" straight up to his brain.

Tang Ye raised his hand and "slap!" gave that woman a loud slap across the face.

This slap directly stunned the woman.

Qin Lan also hadn't expected her son to be so decisive!

She felt both a little moved and vaguely worried.

"What are you all standing there like idiots for? He hit me! Are you all wooden blocks?" The woman came to her senses, covered her slapped face, and yelled at the group of people behind her, ordering them to take action.

This group of people were the home's renovation workers, originally there to provide a show of force.

Tang Ye saw through the opposition at a glance and immediately warned, "Think about the consequences of starting a fight in someone else's home."

Once the words were out, that group of people were intimidated.

When it came down to it, they were earning hard-earned money and weren't gangsters, so how would they dare to do something illegal.

Seeing that this group couldn't be relied upon, the woman hurriedly took out her phone, dialed a number, and began to cry and complain into the phone: "Husband, this family is too unreasonable. I was trying to discuss things with them properly, and as a result, I got slapped."

On the other end of the line, the man was instantly furious and roared, "This is outrageous! You wait, I'll be there right away!"

The man's name was Ma Yongchang, and he was the section chief of the Municipal Facilities and Safety Management Section of the Municipal Urban Management Bureau.

In 2006, although the internet was not yet widespread, Urban Management was already "famous."

This department had significant power.

Simply put, the roads were managed by the traffic police, and everything outside the roads was managed by them.

Property management had actually known long ago that Ma Yongchang's family had knocked down a load-bearing wall during their renovation and had even gone to persuade them several times, but Ma Yongchang made one phone call to the developer, and the developer could only turn a blind eye.

Ma Yongchang thought the matter had been settled just like that.

Who knew that Qin Lan would not only run to the developer's general manager's office and pound the table, but also file complaints with the relevant departments.

With no other choice, the developer could only give Qin Lan's phone number to Ma Yongchang.

Ma Yongchang had his wife, Huang Hong, go directly to find Qin Lan to communicate.

Hearing that his wife had suffered a big loss, how could Ma Yongchang endure it?

He hurriedly contacted a subordinate who was usually quite good at "settling matters": "My wife has been bullied, hurry up and get me some people over here!"

Not long after.

More than a dozen people gathered in a swarm and surged into Tang Ye's home aggressively.

After entering the room, Ma Yongchang pulled at his throat and roared: "Who hit someone? Stand out for me!"

Tang Ye curled his lips, gave a cold laugh, stared at Ma Yongchang, and said: "I hit her. You should ask your wife first if I hit her unjustly!"

Ma Yongchang hadn't expected this kid Tang Ye to have such a sharp tone; he frowned, and instead of being angry, he laughed: "You've got guts!" After finishing, he gave a wink to the subordinate beside him and said viciously: "Teach this kid a lesson, but take it easy, don't beat him until he's crippled."

The subordinate rubbed his hands and walked toward Tang Ye.

Seeing this posture, Qin Lan's heart tightened, fearing that Tang Ye would get hurt, and she hurriedly tried to block the way in front of Tang Ye.

How could Tang Ye hide behind his mother!

He went up to meet the opponent.

With a beautiful back-throw, he pinned that subordinate firmly to the ground.

This move left Ma Yongchang dumbfounded; he stood there with his mouth wide open, stunned.

One must know that this group of people were all temporary workers hired by Urban Management; they were fine for bullying small street vendors, but when they really encountered someone who had trained, they weren't up to the task.

At this moment, a sound of hurried footsteps came from outside.

Immediately following, the property management people rushed in, and the Captain of the security guards separated Tang Ye and the subordinate, "Nobody is allowed to fight!"

The subordinate Ma Yongchang brought who was the best at fighting was already lying on the ground, baring his teeth and groaning.

The others immediately found a way to back down.

One by one, they only dared to glare fiercely at Tang Ye.

A cough came from the doorway, and a pot-bellied, greasy-faced middle-aged man entered, frowning as he scanned the chaos in the room, appearing quite surprised.

Ma Yongchang had brought quite a few people, but how had they suffered such a big loss when they started fighting?

The middle-aged man began to smooth things over: "You two are both owners, having bought new homes and renovating them properly was originally a good thing. In the future, everyone will be neighbors, seeing each other all the time, why make things look so ugly?"

Ma Yongchang shouted angrily: "General Manager He, this kid hit my wife; if it were you, could you endure it?"

Tang Ye retorted with a half-smile: "Get this straight, this is my home! Your wife cursed my mother; if it were you, could you swallow this anger?"

Ma Yongchang was stunned for a moment and turned his head to look at Huang Hong.

He knew in his heart that with Huang Hong's temper, she probably really could do that.

However, he also thought to himself, what's wrong with cursing a few times, it's not illegal, but hitting someone is a different matter entirely.

A slap has to be compensated with at least twenty thousand yuan, not to mention that the one who was hit was his own wife!

President He hurriedly pulled Ma Yongchang outside and whispered to him for a long time.

After finishing, he called Tang Ye into the room.

President He looked serious and said as if giving an order: "Both sides are at fault for today's matter, but you hit someone, and that is a huge mistake. The person outside is a leader from the Urban Management Bureau. I advise you to soften your stance quickly and take out ten thousand yuan as compensation for mental distress, and let this matter be settled. Otherwise, you will have a hard time in the future; Urban Management has plenty of ways to deal with people."

Tang Ye looked at President He's fierce-looking but cowardly dog-like appearance, found it a bit funny, and said indifferently: "It's fine, I'd like to see what he can do to me."

President He shook his head inwardly; this young man did not understand the twists and turns of this world at all.

He helplessly spread his hands and said: "Since you are so stubborn, then I can't help it! Let's call the police and let the Police handle it!"

Ma Yongchang called the Police directly!

Just after hanging up the phone.

A heroic-looking woman wearing a police uniform walked in hurriedly.

President He was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized what was happening.

No wonder this young man was so confident and fearless; it turns out this family is not someone to be trifled with either!
