Of course, the reason Ye Chen said that was because he was a security guard dispatched by the company, not hired directly by the mall.
There was a big difference. If he had been hired directly by the mall, anyone could have dismissed him with just a word.
But being a dispatched security guard was different. Even if they didn't want Ye Chen to work here, they had to discuss it with the person in charge from the security company, namely Liu, the head of the security team.
Moreover, security guards had their dignity. Dealing with someone like the man required such an approach.
Let me put it this way, as long as Ye Chen handled it properly without any excessive actions, the security company would stand by their own.
This man probably had some background and some ability, but compared to the security company in the capital, he probably wasn't qualified enough.
Upon hearing Ye Chen's words, the man threw a punch, aiming at Ye Chen's nose. If that punch landed, it would probably break Ye Chen's nasal bone.
The reason this man dared to act was not only because he had some background but also because he believed Ye Chen couldn't defeat him.
Indeed, in terms of physique, Ye Chen was not as strong as him. The man was about 1.85 meters tall and weighed around 190 kilograms, while Ye Chen was 1.8 meters tall and weighed 160 kilograms. There was a clear difference. However, this was only based on outward appearance.
But the man overlooked one thing: Ye Chen was skilled in martial arts, especially in Tong Zi Gong (a traditional Chinese martial art for children). He wasn't someone this seemingly strong but actually almost empty guy could compare with.
When the man's fist was about five centimeters away from Ye Chen's nose, Ye Chen's palm blocked it.
With his five fingers tightened and a twist to the right, the man's body involuntarily turned half a circle, facing away from Ye Chen.
If they were outside and Ye Chen wasn't wearing this outfit, he would have kicked the man's buttocks, making him roll like a shrimp.
But wearing this outfit, he could only subdue the man to prevent any violent behavior.
"Damn... Let go of me!" The man struggled a few times to break free but to no avail.
Hearing the man cursing, Ye Chen applied a bit more force and pushed his hand upwards. If it weren't for this outfit, the man would have been disabled by now, just from that insult.
But the man was also in discomfort now. When Ye Chen lifted his arm just now, the man's height of 1.85 meters turned into 1.3 meters instantly.
His head, which was the highest point before, was now the lowest, or rather, the hand Ye Chen was holding was the highest.
The man instantly turned into a shrimp, finding it difficult to breathe, let alone continue cursing.
Ye Chen's actions were seamless. Zhao Peng, who was nearby, was stunned. This was so skillful; no wonder the company transferred Ye Chen here.
"What are you doing?" A voice sounded behind Ye Chen.
Ye Chen turned his head and saw Team Leader Li Gang and Liu, the head of the team.
Ye Chen let go of his hand. Whether it was deliberate or not, when Ye Chen let go, he pushed the man lightly forward. The man, who had been sticking out his buttocks, was pushed forward by this light push, almost stumbling forward.
Seeing this, both Liu and Team Leader Li Gang smiled, but they quickly concealed it.
The man finally stood up with difficulty, turned around, and glared angrily at Ye Chen, holding his right arm with his left hand. His face was flushed as he stared at Ye Chen and said, "Good, very good. You wait for me."
He didn't make any more extreme moves. One reason was that he knew Ye Chen wouldn't hurt him. Second, there were quite a few security guards around, all watching him closely.
Unfortunately, Ye Chen didn't take his words seriously and just shrugged at him.
At this moment, the young woman in her twenties ran to his side. The salespeople didn't stop her; as long as she didn't do anything extreme, they couldn't stop her either.
"Let's go. We're never coming here to shop again." The young woman pulled the man's arm and said.
The man glanced at her, then left without looking back, feeling too embarrassed. He had been taken down by a mere security guard.
