Witnessing this scene, those who followed Li Chengdong, like Guo Guangcheng, had jelly legs and stood rooted to the spot.
They showed no intention of helping, nor any desire to break up the fight, their eyes wide with a fear even greater than that displayed on Li Chengdong's face.
Li Chengdong held his chin in one hand and pointed at Lu Jiang with the other, his narrow eyes filled with venomous resentment. This made Guo Guangcheng and the others inwardly curse their misfortune. They had indeed warned him about the man he was dealing with, but still, he dared to be disrespectful. Wasn't this asking for death?
As for Lu Jiang's actions towards Li Chengdong, not a single person present thought it was inappropriate. If a man's wife is molested and he swallows his anger, he's nothing but a coward, a laughing stock.
Li Chengdong's words might not have been explicitly crude, but in that era, they were certainly considered grievous harassment.
