Chapter 257: Do You Have a Girlfriend?
Hao Jian completely shattered the dignity he had been building all along.
Defeated with a single blow, this was a great insult to him.
Hao Jian looked at Kong Xiaozhen, "This dog of yours, not very impressive, huh?" Explore more stories at My Virtual Library Empire
"That's why I wanted to recruit you under my command," Kong Xiaozhen said with a smile.
"Sorry, I'm not interested in being anyone's dog." Kong Xiaozhen still had no authority to command him.
"I can offer you many unexpected benefits."
By then, Kong Xiaozhen had already given up on acquiring the Shu Ya Group because the value of Hao Jian alone was worth ten Shu Ya Groups.
"Such as?"
"Power, status, fame, and women."
"I had power and status a long time ago, but I have already abandoned them. Fame and fortune don't interest me, and as for women... Do you think someone as handsome as I am lacks for women?" Hao Jian said, curling his lip.
Kong Xiaozhen's eyes narrowed, his eyebrows furrowed, and he gave a frustrated sneer, "So, you're saying there's nothing to discuss?"
"Swish!"
The next instant, Hao Jian appeared in front of Kong Xiaozhen, grabbed his throat with one hand, and lifted him into the air.
Kong Xiaozhen's face instantly turned red due to suffocation, and he glared at Hao Jian both nervously and angrily, outraged at being insulted like this!
"Let go of the Young Master!" Sun Jian immediately stepped forward.
"Scram!" Hao Jian said without turning his head, and with a rear kick, sent Sun Jian flying away.
The bodyguards turned pale at the scene, while Zhao Ziliang and Zheng Fei quickly pushed their wheelchairs back, fearing they might be next.
Hao Jian, his face a grim shade of iron, looked at Kong Xiaozhen, "Do you know how much I hate being threatened?"
Kong Xiaozhen didn't speak but just looked coldly at Hao Jian. He had his own pride and absolutely refused to back down.
For an heir apparent like Kong Xiaozhen, representing not just himself but his entire family, he could lose anything but face.
"If you dare touch my student, I will kill you first, then flatten the Kong Family. If you think I can't do it, go ahead and try!"
Hao Jian threw Kong Xiaozhen aside, and Kong Xiaozhen landed hard on the ground.
Kong Xiaozhen, covered in dirt and coughing, looked extremely disheveled.
But Kong Xiaozhen still refused to give up, looking intently at Hao Jian, "So, you really won't consider it?"
"If you want me to work for you, first get rid of the Martial Evil Hall for me," Hao Jian scoffed, knowing that of all forces, the Martial Evil Hall posed the greatest threat to him.
"Are you joking? Do you not know who stands behind the Martial Evil Hall? Asking me to move against the Martial Evil Hall is like asking me to make a formidable enemy for the Kong Family!"
Naturally, Kong Xiaozhen couldn't agree to it, due to the backing behind the Martial Evil Hall which even his family feared.
He merely wanted to employ the expert Hao Jian as his bodyguard, adding an extra layer of protection for himself. Naturally, Kong Xiaozhen would not personally undertake risky ventures for Hao Jian.
"Then there's nothing more to discuss. Take your people and get out," Hao Jian said emotionlessly.
Without a word, Kong Xiaozhen stood up, his expression grim. Today had been a major embarrassment for him.
As Sun Jian passed by Hao Jian, he glared at him fiercely. "The Taoist Sect won't let this slide!"
Hao Jian curled his lips and ignored him. The mere Taoist Sect, a third-rate force, was nothing to be afraid of.
When Kong Xiaozhen and others had left, Zhao Yating and her group approached with some fear. One of the girls cautiously asked:
"Teacher, who were those people just now? How dare they kill someone in the street like that? It's just lawlessness."
"I don't know, but they're definitely not good people. If they really come to bother you, you must notify me immediately. Understand?" Hao Jian said seriously to the students.
He also didn't know whether his warning to Kong Xiaozhen would work. If Kong Xiaozhen didn't take it seriously, then these students would be in danger.
"Young Master, are we just going to let this go?" On the way back, Sun Jian asked Kong Xiaozhen.
"Am I, Kong Xiaozhen, someone to be bullied?" Kong Xiaozhen said indifferently, looking at Sun Jian.
Sun Jian then understood Kong Xiaozhen's meaning, and couldn't help but feel secretly thrilled. If Hao Jian dared to bully Kong Xiaozhen today, then Kong Xiaozhen would surely retaliate tomorrow.
Kong Xiaozhen's eyes were sharp as knives, and he sinisterly said, "Since he doesn't want to submit to me, let him die by my hand!"
Such talent, if he could not possess it, he absolutely wouldn't let anyone else have it either!
.
"Teacher, can I go home with you tonight?"
After school, Hao Jian, who had planned to go home, unexpectedly encountered Zhao Yating.
Zhao Yating was dressed in sportswear, the tight outfit accentuating her full, rounded bust, and she wore a sports mini skirt that made her look youthful and radiant yet also more seductive.
Zhao Yating looked somewhat shy, because today's outfit was carefully chosen, and the purpose was clearly obvious.
Hao Jian couldn't help but swallow, Zhao Yating's shapely, bare legs were right in front of him, impossible to ignore.
Feeling Hao Jian's intense gaze, Zhao Yating also felt a bit embarrassed, but at the same time, she was pleased.
It took a good while for Hao Jian to snap out of his shock, then asked, "Well, don't we live in different directions?"
He knew well, Zhao Yating's home was in the Eastern Suburb, while his own was in the Southern Suburb, a long way off.
"I just happen to have some business in the Southern Suburb," Zhao Yating explained, sounding a bit guilty.
"I see, well, okay then." Hao Jian nodded and then walked to the driver's seat.
Zhao Yating inwardly shouted "YES!" and hurriedly walked to the passenger seat.
"Teacher, thank you for today. If it weren't for you, those two perverted instructors would have bullied me to death," Zhao Yating said, feigning fragility, having heard that appearing delicate and weak could arouse a man's protective instincts.
Hao Jian grunted in response and said, "Those two guys probably won't let it go just like that. Be careful at school, and if they harass you again, remember to be alert."
"I will. By the way, teacher, who were those people who came to find you today? They seemed quite fierce," Zhao Yating asked, wanting to know more about Hao Jian.
But Hao Jian clearly didn't want to talk about it and only said lightly, "It's nothing, just a bunch of bad guys."
"Oh, okay then." Zhao Yating said, a bit disappointed, but she didn't press further.
"Teacher, do you have a girlfriend?" Zhao Yating suddenly asked nervously.
"No, why do you ask?" Hao Jian looked at Zhao Yating puzzledly.
