"Don't you know what we're here for? Stop playing dumb with me!"

Xu Mingxin looked at Wang Dashan with a displeased face, his eyes full of disgust, thinking this person in front of him looked quite presentable, so how could he be so good at playing dumb?

He was also angry; a client his company had followed for a long time, only after much difficulty did they get that client willing to buy, but then a competitor suddenly jumped out and poached that client — whoever it was would definitely be unhappy.

"I really don't know what you're here for; there must be some misunderstanding here."

Wang Dashan remained calm in the face of danger; after all, he had been a soldier, so a small scene like this naturally couldn't intimidate him.

And he didn't feel he had done anything wrong.

That client before wasn't someone he actively went to poach; rather, the client actively came to him asking for help with the operation.

The client actively came to him; as an intermediary, he couldn't possibly turn them away, right?

If he turned them away even for this, then basically he wouldn't be able to do business in the future.

"You poached one of our clients; how do we settle this?"

Seeing Wang Dashan still continuing to play dumb, Xu Mingxin got even angrier, even letting out harsh words:

"Bro, if you can't give me a satisfactory answer on this matter, don't even think about continuing to run this shop of yours."

Hearing this, Wang Dashan immediately frowned:

"What do you mean? Threatening me?"

Xu Mingxin smiled coldly:

"I'm not threatening you; it's a civilized society now, who dares do such things? I'm just stating facts. You, this small intermediary, are you sure all your paperwork is really complete? For example, fire safety — are you sure it's all up to standard?"

Wang Dashan also had a fiery temper; he immediately slapped the table and stood up, pointing at Xu Mingxin's nose and cursing loudly:

"You want to make trouble, huh? Believe it or not, I'll beat you up right now!"

Seeing Wang Dashan's aggressive manner, Xu Mingxin not only wasn't afraid, but was even more delighted:

"Come on, come hit me! Just afraid you don't have the guts!"

As long as Wang Dashan struck him, he could immediately report to the police; then, even if Wang Dashan didn't die, he'd have to shed a layer of skin!

Wang Dashan hadn't been out in society long; how would he know society's treachery? Many things he decided based on emotion, so he immediately really wanted to hit Xu Mingxin!

These days he had already been aggrieved enough; business wasn't going well, he had broken up with his girlfriend, he had been humiliated by Cheng Cheng, and now someone just happened to walk into his gun sights — that was truly unbearable!

Just as Wang Dashan was about to swing his sandbag-sized fist at Xu Mingxin's troublemaking face, Wang Erhai returned from outside.

"Big brother, what's going on?"

Wang Erhai hurriedly stopped his big brother's impulsive behavior.

Wang Erhai knew clearly in his heart that no matter what happened, they couldn't hit anyone.

If they hit first, even if they were in the right, they'd become in the wrong.

Before, Wang Dashan had beaten a pyramid scheme ringleader to save him, and because of that, Wang Dashan was sentenced to one year fixed-term imprisonment.

After this lesson, Wang Erhai deeply knew he couldn't lightly hit people.

But Wang Dashan seemed not to have learned the lesson; in a moment of anger rising to his head, he wanted to hit someone.

As for the matter of him being sentenced for hitting someone before, he had long thrown it to the back of his mind.

"Second brother, these people came to find trouble for no reason; if I don't give them a lesson, they might really think we're easy to bully."

Wang Dashan said this.

Xu Mingxin wasn't happy:

"What do you mean 'came to find trouble for no reason'? We just came to get an explanation. You poached our client, and you still think you're in the right?"

Wang Erhai hurriedly said:

"Everyone don't be impulsive; let's talk nicely. How did we poach your client?"

Xu Mingxin said:

"That client named Zhou Shaobo you closed recently was always being followed by our Anjia Real Estate. We served him for over two months, free showings five or six times; it was about to close, but you intercepted the order. You run a property intermediary company — could it be you don't even know this industry's rules? Intercepting a peer's order is something no one can tolerate!"

Wang Erhai heard this and finally understood the reason.

He hurriedly said:

"You're wronging us; we absolutely didn't actively intercept your order. Zhou Shaobo actively came to us asking for help with showings; we didn't know at all he was your previous client. If we knew he was your client, we definitely wouldn't have done this deal."

Xu Mingxin said:

"Who knows if what you say is true or false; anyway, you intercepting our order is an undisputed fact!"

Seeing Xu Mingxin so aggressive, Wang Dashan immediately retorted:

"Even if we intercepted your order, we did it by real ability. You want to find trouble, we're not easy to provoke either!"

Once he said this, the originally slightly eased atmosphere exploded again.

Xu Mingxin immediately kicked nose on face:

"Look, look, you admitted it, right? Just now you were still playing innocent! You brat really think I can't deal with you!"

Wang Dashan angrily retorted back:

"Come on, if you have the guts come deal with me now! Don't think just because you brought a few people I'm afraid of you!"

Seeing the situation deteriorate, Wang Erhai's face immediately changed drastically; he hurriedly blocked Wang Dashan:

"Big brother, say two sentences less, don't be so impulsive. Shanhai Real Estate can't withstand the trouble; you don't want to watch the company go bankrupt either!"

Hearing this, Wang Dashan was stunned for a moment, his momentum weakening by half.

Wang Erhai continued:

"Leave this matter to me. You go outside, smoke a cigarette, and calm down. I know you've been in a bad mood lately, but now is not the time to let your emotions run wild. Just listen to me this once, okay?"

Wang Erhai persuaded him patiently, with a sincere attitude.

Actually, Wang Dashan knew in his heart that he had suffered repeated setbacks lately, and his temper had indeed become much more irritable than before.

The way he had just snapped at Xu Mingxin indeed could not solve the problem.

But what Xu Mingxin said was clearly intended to pick a fight.

He simply could not stand others kicking him when he was down.

"Fine, fine, fine. Then you go communicate with them, and I'll go outside to smoke a cigarette."

Wang Dashan finally made a concession, picked up the lighter on the table, turned around, and went out to smoke.

Inside Shanhai Real Estate, only Wang Erhai remained. Facing Xu Mingxin and the several people Xu Mingxin had brought, he felt a bit nervous in his heart, but still gritted his teeth and went ahead to communicate.

"I am Wang Erhai. May I ask what you call yourself? When out and about, it is better to have one more friend than one more enemy. This matter is all a misunderstanding. Let's sit down and discuss it properly, okay?"

Wang Erhai took the initiative to reach out his hand to shake hands with Xu Mingxin.

Xu Mingxin actually did not want to make a big deal out of things either; he was actually just a wage earner.

It was just that this order had caused him heavy losses. Not only was several hundred yuan deducted from his salary, but he was also scolded by the people above him, so that was why he had rushed over angrily to save face.

"My surname is Xu, Xu Mingxin, Manager of the Gangding Branch of Anjia Real Estate."

Xu Mingxin reached out his hand to shake hands with Wang Erhai, indicating that he was willing to give Wang Erhai a way out.

He also said:

"Having your order intercepted—if it were you all, you all certainly wouldn't be willing either. I just came to demand an explanation, not to cause trouble. As long as you all can give me an explanation, then we can completely turn enemies into friends."
