"Are you Wu the Pockmarked?"

Chen Yang looked at him and opened his mouth.

Just now, Chen Yang sized up Wu the Pockmarked, and Wu the Pockmarked similarly sized up Chen Yang.

Seeing that Chen Yang was just a young man in his twenties, he showed a rather playful smile on his face.

"Hey, you young man, don't you have any manners? Calling an elder by his name like that?" Wu the Pockmarked said with a playful tone.

Hearing this, Chen Yang's brow furrowed even deeper.

In the countryside, there is indeed such a saying.

As long as someone is older, they are elders of the younger generation in the village and need to be respected.

But this kind of respect only applies to good people.

For someone like Wu the Pockmarked, a rogue and scoundrel, there's naturally no need to show respect.

"What are you? Daring to call yourself my elder? It's already good enough that I didn't call you an old beast. Do you really think you're someone important?" Chen Yang said directly without any politeness.

Chen Yang's unceremonious response genuinely caught Wu the Pockmarked by surprise.

He was momentarily stunned, and when he realized it, he immediately flew into a rage.

"Damn it! I used to be a somebody, and you dare speak to me like that? I'm going to teach you some manners today!"

Wu the Pockmarked was also a brute, and with just one wrong word, he immediately wanted to start a fight!

That was exactly what Chen Yang was hoping for!

He had some pent-up anger to release! Fighting? Now that was his specialty!

Just as Chen Yang was about to counter when he saw Wu the Pockmarked preparing to make a move, Tan Jing, who came with him, suddenly stepped forward!

"Wu the Pockmarked! Are you looking to be reformed again?"

Tan Jing emerged from the crowd and loudly rebuked Wu the Pockmarked!

Wu the Pockmarked instinctively looked over in Tan Jing's direction.

Seeing Tan Jing! Wu the Pockmarked was visibly startled and quickly stopped raising his hand against Chen Yang.

"Officer Tan... Tan, what are you doing here?" Wu the Pockmarked looked at Tan Jing with a face full of astonishment.

Tan Jing strode up to Wu the Pockmarked: "What? Am I not allowed to show up here?"

"I couldn't tell that you were doing well inside, but as soon as you come out, you reveal your true colors. It seems you really want to go back in."

As Tan Jing spoke, Wu the Pockmarked's face clearly showed a trace of panic, and he quickly laughed awkwardly to explain: "Officer Tan, you misunderstood me. I had no other purpose today, just wanted to find a job and be a law-abiding citizen."

Wu the Pockmarked had thick skin, and even in front of so many people, he lied without blushing or skipping a beat.

And the surrounding villagers, upon hearing Wu the Pockmarked's words, immediately let out sounds of disapproval, clearly unable to stand him.

"Law-abiding citizen? Then what was that about trying to make a move just now? Is that how you look for a job?" Tan Jing witnessed what happened earlier, but didn't point it out directly.

Wu the Pockmarked still had an awkward smile all over his face: "Haha, that was a misunderstanding, Officer Tan. I was just joking with the youngster, no other intentions. I just wanted to find a job here today, nothing else."

After he finished speaking, Wu the Pockmarked again smiled and looked at Chen Yang and Wu Kexin, saying, "Little village chiefs, why not arrange a job for me? We're all neighbors, can't favor some over others, right?"

Wu the Pockmarked's skin was surely thick to a certain extent.

Just now, he was acting like a rogue scoundrel and even tried to start a fight with Chen Yang.

The next second, he started smilingly asking Chen Yang and Wu Kexin for a job.

Towards such a person, Chen Yang had only two words to describe him!

And that was disgusting!

"There are no jobs, even if there were, I wouldn't assign one to you." Chen Yang's expression was filled with disgust, not hiding it at all, and his refusal was very decisive.

He certainly wasn't going to offer him a job just because Wu the Pockmarked softened his attitude.

This action once again made Wu the Pockmarked enraged.

But with Tan Jing present, he dared not act out.

So he suppressed his inner rage and awkwardly said with a smile: "Haha, well then, since there's no job, I'll be leaving first and won't disturb you guys any longer."

Wu the Pockmarked initially came with the intention of making a fuss.

But with Tan Jing there, he had no choice but to leave first.

As he was leaving, although he was smiling, Chen Yang could clearly see the emotions in his eyes.

But he said nothing and let Wu the Pockmarked leave.

"What a thing! Simply a rogue! Never seen a person like that."

"Ah, it's easier to change mountains and rivers than to alter one's nature. This guy's rascality is ingrained in his bones."

...

After Wu the Pockmarked left, the villagers on the scene all began to complain, with nothing good to say about him.

"Thank you, Officer Tan."

Chen Yang didn't bother with Wu the Pockmarked, and seeing him walk away, Chen Yang went directly to thank Tan Jing.

Although without Tan Jing's help, he could have dealt with Wu the Pockmarked himself, Tan Jing did indeed help.

Upon hearing Chen Yang's thanks, Tan Jing's face was full of smiles: "No need to thank me. Dealing with such people is my job duty, it's my responsibility."

"Haha, okay."

Hearing this, Chen Yang also smiled, and then turned to introduce Tan Jing to Wu Kexin, and vice versa.

"Kexin, this is Officer Tan Jing from the county bureau."

"Officer Tan, this is our Liuhe Village Chief, Wu Kexin."

After listening to Chen Yang's introduction, Wu Kexin immediately extended her hand enthusiastically and thanked him: "Officer Tan, thank you. If it weren't for you, today might have been quite troublesome with Wu the Pockmarked."

"Haha, no need for such courtesy, Village Chief Wu. Chen Yang is my friend, and dealing with people like him is part of my job, no need to thank me." Tan Jing also shook hands warmly with Wu Kexin and responded.

It seems that women have a natural inclination to get along with each other better than men.

After a simple exchange of pleasantries, Wu Kexin seemed to be quite familiar with Tan Jing.

Right in front of Chen Yang, they began to chat directly.

The main topic was still Wu the Pockmarked.

Seeing the two women striking up a conversation like that, Chen Yang, to be honest, was quite surprised.

But thinking about it, this was also good. This way, he didn't have to act as the mediator between them.

"Yang Zi, you have to be careful, Wu the Pockmarked has quite the vengeful nature. Having refused him today, who knows what tricks he might come up with to get back at you."

As Chen Yang was idly standing around, a villager came forward to kindly remind him.

Upon hearing this, a man from Xiashan Village also stepped forward and said: "Yes, Yang Zi, this Wu the Pockmarked has always been ruthless, and now possibly even more so. You can't be too careless."

Chen Yang knew that everyone meant well, so he didn't say much and simply nodded: "Mm-hmm, rest assured everyone, I'm fully aware. Facing such villains is what I, Chen Yang, am least afraid of!"

Hearing Chen Yang's words, everyone nodded.

They were well aware of Chen Yang's capabilities.

The bullies from the surrounding areas had all been made submissive by Chen Yang.

They were reminding him not because they doubted Chen Yang's abilities, but because they didn't want him to underestimate his opponent.

Seeing that their reminder had worked, they had nothing more to worry about.

After chatting at the village office for a while, everyone gradually dispersed.
