Dan Kaiquan had been speaking when he was interrupted.
Ma Shicheng retorted, "Those with tattoos aren't anything reputable. That girl could very well be mixed up with shady societies!"
Tattoos, even in the future, still could not shed their prejudice, let alone in 2013, when many people's first impression equated tattoos to disreputability.
Ma Shicheng's voice was a bit loud, and Yang Sheng, sitting a few rows ahead, heard him and was greatly offended. She stood up to confront him:
"What makes you think people with tattoos can't be good?"
"I think you're the one who's not good." Yang Sheng had always been tough, and she did not hesitate to stand her ground.
Sensing that someone dared to argue with him, and moreover, a girl, Ma Shicheng became excited. He never held back against women.
Raising his voice slightly, Ma Shicheng countered from across the space:
"So, you think tattoos are okay?"
"You don't have one on you, do you?"
