Chapter 232
Fan Jinyou froze on the spot!
He knew very well that if he wanted to run, he could definitely run away; after all, he was at the door, with one foot already outside.
But would it be over if he ran away?
Of course not!
He worked at the subdistrict office and was responsible for this area; he was considered a well-known person.
If he ran away, his reputation would be ruined!
If someone reported him to the subdistrict office, it wouldn't just be a matter of his reputation being ruined; at best, he would be demoted to a remote place, and at worst, he would be fired directly.
"Who ran away?"
"I just wanted to go out for some air!"
Fan Jinyou gritted his teeth and turned back.
Running away was easy, but the aftereffects were too great; he couldn't afford them!
"Come on, Fan Jinyou, cut your watermelon open too, let everyone judge and see if your watermelon and mine are the same?"
Wan Ping'an pressed him step by step.
He had no objection to Fan Jinyou chasing women.
But trying to step on him and use him as a stepping stone was unforgivable!
"I, I..."
Fan Jinyou knew he had lost for sure.
His brain's CPU was overclocking, almost burning out, and he still couldn't think of a good way out.
Bang!
Someone bumped into Fan Jinyou.
The watermelon fell to the ground.
Pop!
It shattered into seven or eight pieces.
No need to cut it.
Everyone saw it, and smelled it too.
The watermelon Fan Jinyou brought was the same as Wan Ping'an's, the same kind, the same batch!
"Fan Jinyou, your watermelon is the same as mine; you said that as long as I could get some, you would buy them all at ten yuan per catty."
"You're not going to go back on your word, are you?"
Wan Ping'an stared at Fan Jinyou.
"I, I, I was just joking with you, why are you taking it so seriously?"
Fan Jinyou barely managed to think of an excuse.
"Are you trying to welsh?"
"Think clearly; you work at the subdistrict office; if you welsh, I'll go report you."
"You should know the consequences, right?"
Wan Ping'an sneered.
"I was wrong; even if you sold me, I couldn't come up with three thousand yuan!"
"Can we solve this another way?"
Fan Jinyou thought and thought, but really had no other way.
"Kneel down and call me Grandpa!"
"Yes, kneel down and call him Grandpa!"
"Kneel down and call him Grandpa!"
Those watching the fun weren't afraid of things getting big.
Someone saw that Fan Jinyou couldn't afford to pay and shouted at the top of their lungs.
This proposal immediately received the support of everyone, and the shouting became more and more uniform, turning into the same slogan, making Wan Ping'an's ears buzz.
"Did you hear everyone's call?"
"This is the way everyone thought of for you; if you agree, do it, beg for mercy, and I'll let you off!"
Wan Ping'an knew very well.
Forcing Fan Jinyou to kneel would offend him to death, but so what?
Was Wan Ping'an afraid of him?
Next time, it would only make him suffer even more!
Fan Jinyou's face was so red it was almost dripping blood; kneeling and calling someone 'Grandpa' was too shameful, too embarrassing!
He wanted to run.
Turning his head, he realized that those watching the fun were afraid he wouldn't kowtow and afraid he would run away, so several people had blocked the door, just wanting to watch him kowtow.
"Grandpa, I was wrong, please let me off!"
"Grandpa, I was wrong, please let me off!"
"Grandpa, I was wrong, please let me off!"
Fan Jinyou had no choice.
On one hand, he couldn't run away.
On the other hand, he was really afraid of it reaching the subdistrict office; as long as it was reported, his behavior would at least be a life-style issue, and he would most likely be fired.
Three loud kowtows.
Three calls of 'Grandpa'.
Fan Jinyou turned and ran.
Everyone burst into laughter.
Pop!
When going out the door.
Fan Jinyou kicked the threshold with one foot, tripped, and fell hard.
He was running too fast, too panicked.
Usually, he wouldn't have been tripped by the threshold.
Just as he ran out the door, Fan Jinyou did a full-body prostration, falling for the second time.
Just as he climbed up, he fell for the third time.
Falling three times in a row, Fan Jinyou wanted to die.
It wasn't just painful, it was even more embarrassing!
Everyone burst into laughter.
Immediately after, they started making a fuss, wanting to eat watermelon, especially the old customers, who were relentless, and three big watermelons had to be cut before they were appeased.
"Ping'an, sell the remaining watermelons to me!"
Xu Huirong kept all the watermelons.
Two mao per catty.
Twice as expensive!
She announced on the spot that from today on, three big watermelons would be cut every day until they were sold out, making the old customers of the small tavern cheer.
After appeasing the guests, the three of them sat down in the corner.
"Ping'an, thank you so much."
"Fan Jinyou is a newcomer who just transferred to the subdistrict office; he's been pestering Xueru and me for three or four days, like a dog-skin plaster, we couldn't drive him away."
Xu Huirong sighed.
She and Chen Xueru were good-looking and were both small business owners, typical white-rich-beautiful women, so many people were eyeing them.
There were many like Fan Jinyou who intended to get both the person and the money!
"I thank you too!"
"Fan Jinyou has lost so much face, he shouldn't dare to come again in the future!"
Chen Xueru also breathed a sigh of relief.
Wan Ping'an, however, shook his head.
Fan Jinyou was a pure villain who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals. ===== CHAPTER 234 =====
