Reborn As Lucky Star-Chapter 128 - : Conjunctivitis
Chapter 128: Chapter 128: Conjunctivitis
Seeing Wang Pengfei gasping for air with difficulty, the people around him grew fearful, exchanging glances, feeling an urge to flee.
If someone were to die today, it certainly wouldn’t be a matter to jest about.
Wang Pengfei saw nothing but a piercing white before his eyes, and for a moment, he was completely blind.
At that instant, he regretted looking for trouble with Yue Jiandong immensely.
He had seen Yue Jiandong a few times before and always thought the man was nothing more than a slightly clever country bumpkin.
But now, he could genuinely feel that Yue Jiandong might actually take his life.
...
The next second, Yue Jiandong finally moved his foot away, and with one hand, he hoisted Wang Pengfei up.
“Cough cough cough!”
His lungs filled with air again; relief and panic from a narrow escape intertwined.
Wang Pengfei’s look towards Yue Jiandong was now filled with terror.
“Yue Jiandong, I underestimated you!”
With a release of his hand, Yue Jiandong let go, and Wang Pengfei fell back to the ground, face-up.
“Doing business is something both you and I can do, who gave you the right to splash paint at my place?”

After coughing a few more times, Wang Pengfei got up from the ground and said, “Blocking someone’s livelihood is like killing their parents, Yue Jiandong. You took my business; I won’t let you off.”
Yue Jiandong glared, and Wang Pengfei involuntarily shrank back.
Finally, the police arrived and took the whole group away.
Since Wang Pengfei was the one who started the fight, and there were no serious injuries on either side, the police ended up detaining him alone for a lecture.
The two buckets of paint he brought were also confiscated.
Wang Pengfei kept his head down, not saying much, but as soon as he left the police station, he glared hatefully in the direction of the Yue Family.
The people by his side tried to persuade him, “Brother Wang, let’s just drop it, Yue Jiandong is a ruthless character.”
“Yeah, and the police said that if we had injured Yue Jiandong, we would definitely go to jail.”
No matter what Wang Pengfei thought, they didn’t dare come again.
Wang Pengfei said angrily, “Shut up, I have my own plans.”
It was clear that an outright confrontation wouldn’t work, but he was determined not to let Yue Jiandong and the Yue Family off easy.
Truth be told, Wang Pengfei was aware that the manager of Four Seas Restaurant had been dissatisfied with him for quite some time.
Even if it wasn’t Yue Jiandong, someone else would have taken his place.
But Wang Pengfei was still bitter.
He still remembered the first time he met Yue Jiandong; the man nearly talked his ear off, just trying to get him to come to harvest fish from the pond.
Now he was about to be overshadowed by him.
Humph, just a mud-legged peasant! Thinking he could turn over a new leaf stepping on him?
Wang Pengfei would never allow such a thing to happen.
Lin Chunju and the others didn’t find out about the incident until they returned from the fields, and they were immediately fearful.
“Thank goodness Jiandong got back in time. If those people had really broken in…”
Damaging the stuff in the house was the least of their worries; there were three children at home, after all.
If an accident happened, no amount of money could compensate for it.
Wang Xiaoni and Zhang Ying held their children tight, feeling relieved but still scared.
Yue Jiandong may have been ruthless with Wang Pengfei, but he was gentle and reassuring with his family.
“Don’t be scared. Today was okay since Xiaofang was sharp to call the police. They’ve already scolded them; Wang Pengfei definitely won’t dare to come again.”
Lin Chunju shook her head, “Hearing you say that, that person came to our door with paint, and he dared to break into the house. Even though he’s suffered a loss this time, he might not give up easily. We should still be careful.”
Yue Jiannan angrily said, “Brother hasn’t even started his business properly and Wang Pengfei already knew about it. It must have been noticed when the manager came last time. Someone has been tipping him off.”
Yue Jianxi sighed, “Jealousy really does turn people red-eyed.”
The Yue family realized that as they gradually became wealthier, more and more petty and jealous people were surfacing.
Looked down upon when poor, yet wealthy success brings envy and hate.
Lin Chunju looked around at her family, her gaze resolute, “Regardless, we live our lives well, and we’ll keep on improving.”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
“Yes, definitely better.”
