The Mightiest Little Peasant

all.

 He was impassive, though he smirked in his heart.
His Cousin Brother was still as loathsome as ever! His attitude was the same as his aunt.

 Tang Bowen continued walking and stopped in front of Tang Hao.

 “Why are you here in Provincial City, Younger Cousin Brother?” Tang Hao said sarcastically.

 Tang Hao lifted his head and glanced at him.
“I’m here for some business!” He replied calmly.

 “Oh!” Tang Bowen replied, then continued, “What have you been doing lately? Are you still delivering packages like before?”

 “Nah, I quit my job a long time ago.
I’m self-employed now,” Tang Hao replied.

 “Oohhhh,” Tang Bowen said again.
He dragged the syllable and sounded disdainful.

 ‘Self-employed? Doesn’t that just mean that you’re jobless? You don’t even have a high school graduating certificate and your family is poor.
What else can you do?’ He thought.

 “How long have you been here, Younger Cousin Brother? Have you been around the campus? You must be envious, right? Z University is one of the most prestigious colleges in the country.
I think even you should know that.”

 “Yup, I went around once.
It doesn’t look bad indeed!” Tang Hao replied.

 “Isn’t that so!” Tang Bowen said, “You should come here more often! Right, Younger Cousin Brother, since you’re here, how about I treat you to a cup of coffee?

 “This is Provincial City.
It’s different from where you come from.
The coffee here is expensive and I’m afraid you can’t afford it,” he said pretentiously.

 Tang Hao grinned curiously.
“Why, Cousin Brother, are you rich now?”

 Tang Bowen’s eyes flashed with panic when their eyes met.
“Isn’t that so? My family isn’t as poor as yours.
A cup of coffee here is nothing to me.”

 Tang Hao surveyed his clothes.
“Tsk tsk! Your clothes must be expensive too!”

 Tang Bowen was immediately angry.
“What do you mean, Tang Hao? Are you envious?”

 The young girl next to him furrowed his brows and said disdainfully.
“How can you speak to your cousin brother like that? It’s OK if you’d rather reject Bowen’s kind offer for buying you coffee, but why are you taunting him? People from mountain villages are all like you; uncivilized and unmannered.”

 “That’s right, how low-uncouth!” Another girl said.

 “Hey, kid, since you’re not from Z University, who are you trying to fool? Do you think you deserve to sit here? Get lost from my face now!”

 “That’s right! Go away! Not everyone can step into Z University.” Two boys started yelling at him.

 Tang Bowen smirked when he saw the scene.
His eyes flashed with satisfaction.

 “Whatever.
My younger cousin brother is a petty person.
He’s just envious of me; you don’t have to mind him,” he said pretentiously.

 Tang Hao chuckled.
“Why, isn’t Z University for everyone?”

 “Of course.
This is Z University.
You can’t expect to find common rabble here.” One of the boys spoke mockingly.

 “You don’t own the place.
Why do you care if I’m waiting for someone here?” Tang Hao said coldly.

 “You…” That boy was immediately angry.
His eyes bulged as he glared at Tang Hao.

 “Whatever.
There’s no point in talking sense to trash like him.
Let’s go sit over there,” Tang Bowen said.
He led the group to another corner of the cafe and sat down.

 Tang Hao could not be bothered with them.
He continued waiting.

 About ten minutes later, a commotion was heard from outside the cafe.

 A beautiful figure appeared at the entrance.
