heard this
Wei Hong paused slightly with his eating hand, then turned his head and looked over calmly.
Lu Wenhui, who is also a peeling master, had a sneer on his lips at this time, as if he was a little disdainful. He did not look at Wei Hong, but ate slowly, as if the person who just spoke was not him.
But Wei Hong heard clearly that those words definitely came from Lu Wenhui.
As soon as these words came out, everyone around them was slightly stunned, and naturally they could hear the sour taste in Lu Wenhui's words.
Most people were silent for a while, obviously not wanting to get involved in the conflict between the two.
There was also a small group of people who looked at Wei Hong with amusement and ridicule in their eyes, as if they wanted to see how he would respond to this situation.
Among them were Zheng Qingyuan, Tan Ming and Gao Feiyu who were quite jealous of Wei Hong last time.
Zheng Qingyuan and the others were quite dissatisfied and resentful that Wei Hong had been promoted to a skin-picking master earlier than them. When they saw Wei Hong being targeted by Lu Wenhui, who was also a skin-picking master, they naturally felt relieved.
However, Wei Hong just replied lightly: "Senior Lu said yes, so be it!"
Being low-key does not mean being afraid of getting into trouble, and the more afraid you are of getting into trouble, the more enthusiastic others will be.
No matter what reason Lu Wenhui had, whether it was jealousy or dissatisfaction, since he had spoken against him, he would naturally respond.
In fact, Wei Hong was also wondering. Three days ago, Lu Wenhui did not show any intention to target him, and there was no hatred between the two of them. However, Lu Wenhui behaved like this today, which is really puzzling.
"snort!"
Lu Wenhui snorted with a gloomy expression, and his eyes towards Wei Hong became unkind.
He didn't expect that Wei Hong would dare to push back so hard, leaving him unable to say anything for a while.
Lu Wenhui could only glare at Wei Hong fiercely, then turned and left with an unkind expression.
After him, Zheng Qingyuan and others also got up and left.
There was no reaction on Wei Hong's face. He just watched Lu Wenhui and others leave with a calm expression. His eyes were quite deep. No one knew what he was thinking.
But he knew very well that he was obviously jealous of Zheng Qingyuan and the others.
At this time, Song Jingcheng on the side patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother Wei, don't think too much. This is Lu Wenhui's temperament. In fact, there is no malice. It will get better after a while!"
"Haha, that's what Senior Song said."
Wei Hong understood what Song Jingcheng meant, and he responded with a smile: "I understand what you mean, and I won't take it to heart!"
His experience in the mortal world has already made him quite capable!
It is a basic operation to keep the joy, anger, sorrow and joy invisible, so he did not show any displeasure.
Song Jingcheng smiled and nodded without saying anything more. After eating, he stood up and left.
As for the other skin-picking apprentices, they would naturally not be so unwise as to make a grudge against Wei Hong!
They all waited for Wei Hong to eat and leave before getting up and leaving.
After Zheng Qingyuan and others left the kitchen, they quickly caught up with Lu Wenhui.
"Senior Lu, that boy Wei Hong is too disrespectful to you. Look at his proud look, it's obvious that he doesn't take you seriously. That's great!"
After catching up with Lu Wenhui, Zheng Qingyuan directly provoked him, deliberately exaggerating the conflict between the two of them, and he obviously had no good intentions.
In fact, among so many skin-picking apprentices, the one who is most persistent and hates Wei Hong the most is Zheng Qingyuan.
He really couldn't figure out why Wei Hong, a newcomer, became a peeling master after only one month here, while he was still a little peeling apprentice after working hard for more than half a year.
Regarding this issue, he did not blame it on his lack of talent in practicing evil spirits!
Instead, he resented Wei Hong for taking his position, and was filled with dissatisfaction and resentment.
Therefore, Zheng Qingyuan couldn't wait to unite everyone to target Wei Hong and make him understand his position in the peeling workshop.
This time Lu Wenhui confronted Wei Hong in the kitchen, so he naturally played into Zheng Qingyuan's hands.
"Yes, Senior Lu!" Tan Ming also echoed from the side: "Well, Wei Hong has only been here for a month. If he dares not to take you seriously now, won't he step on you after a while? Are you acting arrogantly?"
"That's right, Senior Lu, this guy is arrogant and domineering, he is not an easy person!" Gao Feiyu also secretly exaggerated.
Like Zheng Qingyuan, they all hated Wei Hong.
Especially today, I heard in the kitchen that the leatherworkers seemed to like the leather membranes made by Wei Hong more, which immediately made them even more jealous.
"Oh? What do you mean?"
Lu Wenhui stopped and looked at Zheng Qingyuan and the others with squinted eyes.
He is not a fool. Although he couldn't help but sneer at Wei Hong in the kitchen today, it doesn't mean that he will have a real grudge with Wei Hong.
Moreover, there was no grudge between the two of them. Even if Lu Wenhui was a little unhappy, he would not go out of his way to trouble Wei Hong.
A strange color flashed in Zheng Qingyuan's eyes. He looked around, and when he found no one there, he whispered to Lu Wenhui: "Senior Lu, Wei Hong is so arrogant, why don't we find an opportunity to teach him a lesson and let him understand what it means to Respect your seniors?”
Obviously, taking the opportunity to teach Wei Hong a lesson was the real purpose of Zheng Qingyuan and others.
Pulling Lu Wenhui on is just to hope that someone will tell the truth!
"Teach Wei Hong a lesson?" Lu Wenhui's face darkened, then he looked at Zheng Qingyuan and the others with stupid eyes, and asked with a sneer: "How to teach him a lesson? Gather a group of people and beat him up? Or find an opportunity to kill him?"
Zheng Qingyuan seemed to have not heard the ridicule from Lu Wenhui at all. He instigated in a slightly sinister way: "This kind of mortal outsider has no foundation at all. It's not easy to deal with him? Just find a few people to beat him up, break his hands and feet, and throw him into the forest. There will be monsters to eat him. Why worry about him stealing your limelight?"
"Get lost! Not interested!"
Lu Wenhui sneered and refused.
A mere quarrel, coupled with jealousy, is going to cause trouble for others!
Do you really think you are a fool? Just a few words of instigation will be used as a gun?
After saying that, he turned around and left with a cold snort, obviously not wanting to say anything more to the people in front of him.
"Senior Lu, you???"
Zheng Qingyuan looked aggrieved, but he could only remain silent.
"Brother Zheng, we are just teaching a stranger a lesson." A younger brother muttered in a low voice: "Why do we need to instigate others to take action? Can't we just deal with him ourselves?"
"Idiot!" Zheng Qingyuan rolled his eyes and sneered disdainfully: "Are you idle? Everyone in the world is here for profit, why do you want to do something that has no profit? If the Wei guy has a trump card, wouldn't you be courting death? Just now I was just watching the fun and wanted to add fuel to the fire. Do you really think I would be stupid enough to fight and kill for a little face?"
When the people around heard this, they were all stunned!
Obviously, they didn't expect that such a righteous indignation would end up like this.
