Chapter 48: conflict 

 "Honey, have you noticed the way my mom and your mom look at us? "The next morning, Li Shaofan and Liu Zihan set off. In the car, Liu Zihan expressed her doubts uneasily. 

 "Is it? I didn't pay much attention. "Li Shaofan answered vaguely. In fact, he knew in his heart that it was because his mother had already regarded Zihan as her daughter-in-law, and her eyes were naturally different. 

 "I followed you out. Did my mother think you'd sell me? "Liu Zihan pouted, obviously dissatisfied. 

 "Ha ha, you're an adult. Why would you think that? "Li Shaofan smiled and comforted her. 

 "Haven't you slept enough? It's still more than an hour's drive from the county seat. If you're not sleepy, sleep for a while. I'll call you when you arrive. He suggested gently. 

 "I can't sleep, Shaofan. Tell me what's in town. "Liu Zihan's eyes sparkled with excitement. 

 "The city..." Many people, many buildings, many cars, many shops. "Li Shaofan thought about it and described it simply. 

 "Is that all? "Liu Zihan has some doubts. This does not seem to be the same as the prosperous scene she saw on TV. 

 "What else do you want to know? "Li Shaofan smiled and asked," Many of those TV dramas are fictional. Just look at them. Don't take them too seriously. " 

 "Then why do so many people still want to go to the city? "she asked, puzzled. 

 "Because there are more opportunities and incomes there. Li Shaofan replied without hesitation,"Although the environment is noisy, many people are willing to endure it for a better life." "The following is the answer to" unless this guy's brain is squeezed by a door." Creative, confident, professional style rewriting: 

 "Unless this guy is crazy." Liu Zihan said teasingly. 

 " Sigh, you can't say that," Li Shaofan interrupted him confidently." Sometimes, people's way of thinking is different from ours. Maybe it's just that their way of thinking is unique." 

 "Hmph, unique? If they hear you, be careful of being beaten up." Liu Zihan warned half-jokingly. 

 "Don't worry, I'm not a child. I know what to say and what not to say." Li Shaofan waved his hand confidently." Alright, let's take a break. We still have a long way to go. When we get to the city, we'll observe carefully and you'll understand what I mean." 

 Two hours later, they arrived in the city. Tianhai City, as the central city, although its geographical location was relatively remote, it could be considered prosperous in the entire province. The cars on the street were obviously of a higher grade than those in the county seat. 

 " Brother Shaofan, there are so many people here. If we can sell our vegetables here, we'll definitely get a good price." Liu Zihan said excitedly. 

 " We'll talk about these things later." Li Shaofan looked at the bustling surroundings with determination in his eyes." Today, we're here to have fun and enjoy the process. As for other things, we'll talk about them when our vegetable plot starts operating." 

 "Didn't you say we were here to investigate the market?" Liu Zihan was confused. 

 Li Shaofan explained with a smile: "If I said we came here to investigate the market, how could my mother agree to let me come out to play?" We've been cooped up at home for a long time, and now the vegetable fields are still busy, so we'll take this opportunity to come out and relax. Besides, we're not just here for work, we're here for life, right?" Liu Zihan thought for a moment and whispered to Li Shaofan,"Brother, I came here today to throw money, you don't have to worry about other things, I will take you to play here." Don't think too much, just enjoy it." Li Shaofan smiled confidently." Let's go to the mall and have a party." 

 "But…" 

 "Don't hesitate. Listen to me!" Li Shaofan interrupted firmly," Otherwise, I would be very unhappy." 

 Liu Zihan saw Li Shaofan's serious expression, so she didn't say anything more and quietly followed behind him. In order not to let Liu Zihan sunburn, Li Shaofan carefully prepared a hat and parasol for her. 

 Brother Fan, are you afraid of rain when you buy an umbrella?" Liu Zihan asked curiously. 

 "Look at the people around us. Don't they all have umbrellas? This umbrella will keep you from getting sunburned as well as rain." Li Shaofan explained and handed the umbrella to Liu Zihan. 

 " But we're just countrymen. I feel like those people are looking at me strangely. Will they think we're crazy?" Liu Zihan said worriedly. 

 "Don't worry about it. Think of yourself as a city girl now. You look better than many city girls. Listen to me. Relax. Show yourself." Li Shaofan encouraged. 

 Liu Zihan stuck out her tongue and obediently opened the parasol, following behind Li Shaofan. 

 When the two walked into the supermarket, Liu Zihan was frightened by expensive goods and kept urging Li Shaofan to leave. 

 "These things are so expensive!" 

 "Expensive? I don't think so." Li Shaofan replied easily," Let's go. I'll let you enjoy yourself today." Li Shaofan said firmly: "Girl, don't always think that we are poor now." When our product sold well, we'd be rich and we'd be able to do whatever we wanted." Indeed, Li Shaofan had more than 100,000 yuan on hand, which was considered a small fortune in this city. His purchasing power could not be underestimated. 

 Just then, a sarcastic voice broke the silence. " Humph, why don't you take a look at your identity? Why don't you take a look at this place? You actually dare to speak shamelessly here. You really don't know how to live or die." Li Shaofan turned around and saw that it was an arrogant guy. 

 "What does it matter to you who we are?" he snapped. What do you care if we can shop here or not?" Li Shaofan was very unhappy. What was this bastard trying to do? 

 "Kid, this is a place for high-end people to shop. People like you shouldn't come here. You'll only be embarrassing yourself if you come here." That person said arrogantly, his face full of fat and a wretched expression. Li Shaofan really wanted to punch him in the nose. 

 "Self-humiliation? We're not stealing or robbing. What's wrong with coming here to take a look?" Li Shaofan's patience had reached its limit. 

 "Humph, I'm just unhappy with you guys. You're just a group of poor people." said the man contemptuously. 

 Brother Shaofan, let's go." Liu Zihan had never been wronged like this before. Tears were already rolling in her eyes. 

 "Go? Why are you leaving?" Li Shaofan said disdainfully,"Don't worry, girl, such a small person will not let me retreat." Today I'll show him who the real poor are." 

 He had been cornered and could not endure it any longer. Although he didn't know why this fatty was targeting him, he couldn't wait for death. In Liu Zihan's company, how can I easily retreat. Although the fatty in front of me claimed to be rich, in my eyes, his wealth was not enough to make me afraid. I stared at him, the corners of my mouth slightly raised, and asked the question: "Fatty, are you rich?" 

 He replied haughtily,"Not rich, but richer than you." Then, his gaze turned to Liu Zihan, who was a little nervous. There was a malicious smile on the corner of his mouth." Beauty, follow me. I guarantee that you will live a carefree life." 

 Anger flared in my chest. This fatty dared to have designs on Zihan! I instantly transformed into a raging lion and punched him hard on the bridge of his nose. Fatty screamed as he squatted down. Blood seeped out from between his fingers covering his nose, and the scene fell into chaos. 

 Liu Zihan pulled me in panic: "Brother Shaofan, let's run." But I said no. Bullying me is fine, but touching her, I won't tolerate it. 

 I kicked the fat man to the ground fiercely: "Bully me, bully her not." 

 Fatty struggled to stand up. His eyes were fierce." Kid, how dare you hit me?" 

 I laughed coldly and replied,"What if I beat you? Just because you're from the city doesn't mean you're something. Without us peasants, you city people would hardly be able to sustain yourselves. Where is your pride? Do you own a gun? How much money do you have? Show it to me." "Me? "In front of Li Shaofan's powerful aura, I seemed to be defeated. For a moment, I was speechless. 

 "What happened here? "The supermarket security guard heard the wind came, and the chaos in front of him made him ask. 

 "Are you blind? Can't you see I've been beaten? Hurry up and arrest this kid. I'm going to call the police! "Fatty shook off his hand and shouted at the security guard. Blood poured out from the wound again.
