I am not just a tycoon

"Okay, okay, I'll take him away now."

Jiang Hai tried to pull him down the steps with both hands, but at this point, Jiang Feng, the fool, just refused to leave.

He even asked loudly, "Dong Ya, I've liked you for three whole years. Did you choose him just because he is richer than me? Be honest with yourself, do you even like him?"

"Sorry, besides being rich, he also has power. And even without him, I wouldn't like you because you're too childish."

With the conversation at this point, Dong Ya was no longer polite. She thought Jiang Feng's logic was strange; why should she like him just because he had liked her for three years?

"Me, childish?"

Jiang Feng became even angrier. "I prepare surprises for you on Valentine's Day, gifts on Christmas, and I never forget your birthday. Is that being childish?"

Dong Ya's tone was cold. "What's the use if that's all you can do? Can those things be eaten? Can they solve my situation?"

"Then why couldn't you just wait for me?"

Jiang Feng became more excited as he spoke, his voice strained. He tried to move forward but was blocked by security.

While he was making a scene loudly, the crowd below also paid attention to this side. The VIP seats at Playhouse were already attracting attention, and now with a surge of people and a tension-filled scene,

it looked as if Shen Yuan, sitting in the middle, had snatched someone else's girlfriend, and the one with the strained voice was likely the "victim."

This sort of scene was usually seen online, so many people started taking out their phones to record videos.

However, after a long time, they got nothing.

Because this victim was quite pathetic, he was blocked by two security guards and didn't get a chance to speak to Shen Yuan.

"Smack!"

Suddenly, a crisp and loud slap sound emerged, and everyone was momentarily stunned because the victim didn't just miss speaking up but also received a slap.

The one who slapped him was none other than his own brother, Jiang Hai, who yelled with glaring eyes, "Are you an idiot? What makes you think she'd wait for someone like you?"

"Come with me!"

Taking advantage of the moment Jiang Feng was dazed by the slap, Jiang Hai pulled him and started walking out.

Shen Yuan and Xie Chengbo were briefly shocked, not expecting his brother to hit so hard; that slap could have easily drawn blood.

Perhaps these two brothers had some unresolved issues from their childhood?

As Jiang Feng was almost dragged to the door, he finally recovered from his daze and said while covering his reddened face, "Brother, why did you hit me?"

Jiang Hai dragged him to the exit and scolded, "Wouldn't I have to? Didn't you see those two security guards rolling up their sleeves?"

"Am I still your real brother? I'm asking you!"

Jiang Hai retorted.

"No, brother, shouldn't I be the one asking that?"

Jiang Feng covered his throbbing face, thinking that it was indeed his brother who had just hit him, which bit back unfairly.

"Why the hell would you ask that!"

Jiang Hai was so angry he cursed a few times. "With your attitude, you're just making enemies with someone who could have knocked us flat. The guy next to her is the son of the director of our hospital. Do you want me to lose my job?"

"Brother, is it really that serious?"

Jiang Feng, dazed by the slap and the adrenaline-rushing atmosphere of the bar, was suddenly much soberer.

"What do you think?"

Jiang Hai said sternly, "People like them can destroy us with ease. Forget about a job, if they wished, they could shut us out of the whole medical system in Star City."

"Brother, aren't you exaggerating?"

Jiang Feng hadn't officially worked yet and still couldn't believe it.

"Exaggerating my ass! When you start working and get beaten down, you'll understand!"

Silence lingered for a while, then Jiang Feng quietly looked up. "Brother, isn't my uncle your uncle too?"

"Shut up!"

Jiang Hai's expression darkened, and after a long pause, he finally said, "Don't contact that girl anymore, and stop thinking about her too. Otherwise, you're not just harming yourself but also harming me."

The cold night wind poured into his chest, and Jiang Feng dejectedly bowed his head. "Got it."

....

After the Jiang brothers left, the bar's onlookers felt something was off. It felt as though they had witnessed the scene because that man had just been harshly slapped.

Yet, it also felt like they hadn't, because the instigator had been silent throughout, never even giving Jiang Feng a proper look.

"That guy who got slapped was a victim, right? Why does it feel like he has no rights at all?"

People naturally sympathized with the underdog, instinctively feeling that he was the bullied victim. For a moment, Shen Yuan became the major villain, not only severing love but also being domineering.

"Don't jump to conclusions; maybe that guy isn't a victim, and it wasn't the handsome guy sitting there who hit him."

Of course, some were defending Shen Yuan, though they were mostly women.

Hardly had the words been spoken, someone retorted, "Don't be so infatuated. What's the use of speaking up for him here? He can't see you, and he certainly won't like you."

"I'm just being realistic. We only saw what happened; we didn't hear anything. How can we just assume?"

"..."

Everyone had their biases or perspectives, but some analyzed the situation objectively.

"To be honest, that's just the reality. Although everyone comes to the bar to have fun, there's a huge gap between the upper and lower levels. Just like the man who rushed up, what use was his yelling?"

"They wouldn't even take a proper look at him because they're simply not from the same world. It's like when you're walking on the street and a dog barks at you—would you bark back?"
