Chen Xiazhi sighed and asked, "Brother, do you still remember Ma Xiuyuan?"
"If I remember correctly, Ma Xiuyuan should have been in the same office as Dad back then?"
Chen Shan had worked as a cashier in the office for a period of time, and Ma Xiuyuan was a colleague in the same office.
It's just that their values were different.
Ma Xiuyuan was greedy and insatiable, and often used his position to enrich himself.
When Chen Shan was in charge of cashier work, it was equivalent to cutting off Ma Xiuyuan's financial resources.
After that, Ma Xiuyuan held a grudge.
Then, he used improper means to kick Chen Shan out of the office and returned to the workshop to continue steelmaking.
"This guy is called Ma Kai, he's Ma Xiuyuan's son." A hint of anger appeared on Chen Xiazhi's delicate and pretty face.
"Since Dad started selling barbecue here, this guy has come almost every month. Whenever he comes, he'll find fault. If he doesn't get a free meal, he'll spread rumors about Dad's cooking and even called the health bureau."
Chen Nan found it incredible: "What's his purpose in doing this?"
Chen Xiazhi said indignantly, "It's probably just because he's bad!"
Chen Nan seemed to have thought of something: "I heard before that Ma Xiuyuan became the deputy director of the steel plant?"
"En." Chen Xiazhi said indignantly, "When one person achieves success, even their poultry and dogs ascend to heaven. After Ma Xiuyuan became the deputy director of the steel plant, Ma Kai directly became the captain of the security team, swaggering around with some subordinates."
"There's no justice at all!"
"This matter is not as simple as you think." Chen Nan said, "Although Ma Xiuyuan became the deputy director, the head of the steel plant is Uncle Dazhu!"
"Ma Xiuyuan knows Uncle Dazhu's relationship with our dad, so why did he still let his son find trouble?"
A trace of doubt flickered in Chen Xiazhi's bright eyes: "You mean, Ma Xiuyuan is provoking Uncle Dazhu with this behavior?"
Chen Nan shrugged in acknowledgment.
To be honest.
Li Dazhu's ability was not enough to be the director of the steel plant.
Ma Xiuyuan must have been dissatisfied with becoming the deputy director.
Therefore, he provoked Li Dazhu by suppressing his father.
Suddenly!
Ma Kai overturned the eight immortals table and angrily said, "Chen Shan, I'm telling you, I will report you to the health bureau today and expose you as a dishonest businessman."
"You don't think you can shut me up with a free meal!"
"Not only that, but you also have to pay us ten thousand yuan. I need to take my brothers to the hospital for a check-up. Who knows if your food has bacteria."
A cold glint flashed in Chen Nan's eyes, and he strode forward.
But at this moment, Li Dazhu walked over with a gloomy face: "Ma Kai, isn't it enough? What kind of ability is it to bully ordinary people?"
"Oh, Director Li is here!" Ma Kai put on a mocking smile and sneered, "You're so busy, so high and mighty, why are you eating at a street stall? Doesn't it affect your identity?"
Li Dazhu's transformation into director caused a huge stir in the steel plant.
It shocked countless people.
He was just a small workshop director.
Although he had some ability.
He was completely incapable of becoming the director of the steel plant.
Ordinary people didn't believe Li Dazhu, let alone Ma Xiuyuan.
Although he was happy, he felt extremely aggrieved.
What qualifications did Li Dazhu have to be his superior?
It was precisely because of this that he let his son come to the barbecue stall to cause trouble for Chen Shan.
To put it bluntly, this was a typical tactic of "beating the grass to startle the snake."
Li Dazhu's face was ashen: "Stop being sarcastic in front of me, you're just making me hate you more."
Ma Kai acted like a well-behaved student and quickly lowered his head: "I was wrong, I shouldn't have been disrespectful in front of Director Li, and I shouldn't have offended your authority."
"You..." Li Dazhu's face turned ashen. He was just a common man and couldn't deal with a rogue like Ma Kai.
"Dazhu, this is none of your business, you should go back!" Chen Shan patted Li Dazhu on the shoulder, not wanting him to get involved.
"Brother Shan, they are clearly coming to find trouble with you because of me. If I leave, would I still be a man?" Li Dazhu was simple-minded, but not stupid.
He knew very well that Ma Kai's appearance here was mainly to show him a warning.
Chen Nan spoke: "Ma Kai, right? You said there were maggots in the plate, where are the maggots?"
A young man beside Ma Kai pointed at Chen Nan and cursed, "Who the hell are you? What right do you have to speak here..."
Before he could finish, Chen Nan grabbed his finger.
"Pain, pain, pain, let go quickly!" The young man gritted his teeth in pain and knelt on the ground.
"Get lost!"
Chen Nan kicked him away and then looked at Ma Kai: "Ma, my dad has been setting up stalls here for three years. The neighbors around know what kind of person he is. Don't make up false accusations against us!"
"I heard you've been coming to cause trouble often over the years, right?"
"Now that I'm back, I naturally won't stand by and watch you bully my dad."
"Let's settle the old scores!"
"Didn't I tell you to go home?" Chen Shan roared. He knew that Ma Kai's appearance was to provoke Li Dazhu, and he also knew that once this matter escalated, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Li Dazhu might be disciplined.
Ma Kai sneered: "Your dad is a coward, a wimp, so what if I bully your dad?"
"So what if I've eaten free meals for three years?"
"Do you dare to touch a single hair of mine?"
"It's not that I look down on you, but if you dare to touch me, I guarantee you won't be able to establish yourself in Nancheng!"
He then burst into laughter.
He wanted to enrage Chen Nan.
Ideally, he would be beaten severely.
This way, he could escalate the matter and get rid of Li Dazhu as well.
Then, his father would surely become the head of the steel plant.
"Son, listen to your mother, go home quickly, go home, okay?" Jia Cui blocked Chen Nan, her voice filled with a hint of crying.
Seeing this, Ma Kai deliberately added fuel to the fire and sneered, "Indeed, like father, like son. You and your dad are the same, both cowards!"
"En, yes, you two are both cowards..."
"Mom, get out of the way!"
Chen Nan was furious, pushed his mother aside, and swung his fist at Ma Kai's face.
Time seemed to stand still.
Chen Nan and Jia Cui's faces showed expressions of disbelief.
On the other hand, Li Dazhu had a look of relief.
Because he didn't want to be the so-called director at all.
He didn't have the ability to lead the steel plant to glory.
Nor did he have the psychological capacity to withstand the criticism of the steel plant employees.
Ma Kai was beaten badly, his face was unrecognizable, but he couldn't suppress his joy and laughed heartily, "You're all going to be barbecued soon!"
Chen Nan said disdainfully, "You're celebrating too early, aren't you?"
