Due to the screams of several lady customers, the manager and several servers of the restaurant realized something had happened, so they hastily ran over.
Seeing that Rose was basically done eating, Yang Chen put down a few red notes on the table and asked Rose,
Shall we?
Rose had known that Yang Chen wanted to deal with this fellow how didn’t know his place, but didn’t expect him to do it so straightforwardly. Since she was full, she nodded, got up, and intended to leave with him.
As for that fellow on the floor who brought the wine over, Rose couldn’t be bothered with whether he lived or died.
When the restaurant manager saw Yang Chen intending to leave with his arm hooked with the woman who caused all this, he immediately blocked them. With a nervous expression he said,
Sir, you’ve knocked a guest unconscious, how can you just flee like this!?
Yang Chen smiled and said,
I’m someone who is leaving after I finished my meal, it’s not like I’m not paying. As for the unconscious fellow, that is his problem, what does that have to do with you?
This… this is my restaurant’s responsibility, it’s our duty to protect our customers.
Am I not your customer?
Asked Yang Chen.
You are……
Replied the manager.
Yang Chen then asked,
Then why are you getting in my way? You need to protect him, but also need to protect me, so how is a matter between me and him any of your business?
The manager felt his logic becoming jumbled up, and urgently said,
Even so, the police has to be called!
That’s right, you go call the police, while we walk off, you don’t have any right to compel us to stay.
Saying that, Yang Chen stuck his foot forward, intending to walk away.
The manager took two steps back to let several servers block their way, he said,
Sir, I wouldn’t be able to answer to the guest who’s hurt like this, please stay here!
Yang Chen was rather annoyed by now, he closed his eyes, then opened them again……
That manager stared straight at Yang Chen. Suddenly, he felt a dreadful fear for cruelty and violence in his mind. The manager felt like there was a sharp knife that could pierce his heart in Yang Chen’s seemingly ordinary eyes, it made him feel weak in the knees, and he nearly fell.
May I go now?
Y…yes……
The manager’s head was covered in cold sweat as he cowered to the side.
Watching Yang Chen and Rose walk away, the restaurant’s manager seemed to have lost all strength as he powerlessly sat on the ground.
At this time, the unconscious Jiang Wen woke up, and groaned from the pain……
When they walked out of the restaurant, the moon was hanging high in the sky, and the cold autumn winds blew.
There were quite a number of people strolling by the lake. The willow trees on the bank was already dropping its thin leaves, while the red maple tree was brightly colored and looked like fire under the street lights.
Rose stretched her back in pleasure, then walked ahead, turned back and walked in reverse. With a smile on her face, she said,
Hubby, you didn’t need to frighten them, that restaurant manager is pretty pitiful.
Yang Chen laughed and said,
I was doing that for his own good, by walking off, this matter would just remain a private issue between that Jiang fellow and I. If it was settled in his restaurant, it’ll definitely affect his restaurant’s business.
That’s true, I just wonder if that annoying fellow has woken up yet, it’s best if he turned into vegetable.
Rose said without a care.
That Jiang Wen had given Rose an incredibly shitty impression, and a large part of it was because he mocked the man she loved in front of her.
The two strolled along the riverside for a while, then returned to the car park to go home.
The way back was extremely quiet. As this suburban road was spacious and had less traffic, it made the driving experience exceptionally good. When the car approached the expressway’s entrance, Yang Chen suddenly realized that there was a row of eight black cars blockading his path.
Yang Chen had no choice but to stop his car, but at the same time, the eight cars turned on their high beam!
Furthermore, all sixteen were xenon headlights!
The blinding lights made it difficult for people to open their eyes, the cars that were behind Yang Chen had no choice but to also slow down to a stop. Everybody was barred from getting onto the expressway.
Yang Chen glanced at Rose who sat beside him, and she obviously wasn’t happy. She had obviously guessed that this had to do with Jiang Wen.
Hubby, you should’ve smashed his temples.
Rose angrily said.
-2: One finger
Yang Chen awkwardly smiled, for this lady had truly been enraged. Today was originally the first time the two actually dated outdoors, Rose was incredibly happy, yet they bumped into a fellow who didn’t know his place and kept blabbering nonsense. After spoiling her mood, he still wasn’t done!?
Next, over a dozen people walked over in front of the lights.
Under the bright lights, the man who walked at the very front could be clearly seen. This person had his head wrapped with bandages, and had a pale and malevolent face. This was precisely Jiang Wen who was knocked out and on the floor a while ago.
Beside him was a short-haired middle-aged man who wore a black suit and silver necklace, and he had a large nose. He walked alongside Jiang Wen, seemingly calm.
Jiang Wen pointed at the azure-colored Lotus sportscar, and said to the middle-aged man,
Hao-ge, it’s the couple in this car. That woman didn’t know her place, and the man put me in this state!
The man addressed as Hao-ge waved his hand, and his subordinates behind him charged forwards with steel pipes, ready to wreck the car.
As the sportscar had been through modifications like tinted windows, the people outside couldn’t see inside clearly. These thugs saw that no one was getting off, so they intended to resort to force.
Yang Chen naturally wouldn’t just watch the car get wrecked by them, so he got off the car and said to the henchman who was walking over aggressively,
Hey, wait wait. You want to wreck the car? Are you even able to pay for it after wrecking it?
Seeing that someone got off the car, the henchman stopped and turned his head behind.
Hao-ge, it’s this brat! He’s the one who beat me up!
Jiang Wen grabbed onto Hao-ge’s elbow, and began to curse uncontrollably.
Hao-ge evilly smiled to Jiang Wen and said,
Mr. Jiang, it’s a deal. After this, you have to pay us a million.
Don’t worry, as long as you do him in and hand that woman over to me, one million is no problem!
Jiang Wen fervently said,
However, Hao-ge, don’t make me shoulder the blame if anything happens!
Hao-ge laughed out loud, and patted Jiang Wen’s shoulder,
Brother, have I ever brought you any problems when working for you? As long as the money is received, all will be settled.
Saying that, Hao-ge turned to look at Yang Chen, and sized up Yang Chen with interest,
Youngster, is this car… yours?
Yang Chen shook his head and spoke honestly,
It belongs to my woman.
Hao-ge had an expression of realization,
So you’re in the gigolo profession, youngster. Not bad, you have a face like that but still managed to snag a wealthy woman. However, since things have progressed to this point, I, Ah Hao, have to be accountable for Mr. Jiang. Please have your pretty lady step out of the car instead, it’s has to be stuffy inside.
Since you agree to do that Jiang fellow bidding because he’s giving you a million, why not ask if we will also give you money to instead get rid of that Jiang fellow?
Yang Chen calmly asked.
Hao-ge’s eyes shone,
I like this suggestion of yours, if you guys could come up with an amount that could sway me, I might actually change plans.
Now, Jiang Wen was flustered, and immediately shouted,
Hao-ge! You can’t do this! We’ve cooperated so many times, how could you help an outsider to deal with me!?
Hao-ge coldly glanced at Jiang Wen,
Mr. Jiang, we work for money, not for you. If you provide more money than them, we’ll naturally remain your brothers.
Jiang Wen’s face turned flushed, then paled. He was obviously angry that this man had no loyalty, but did not have the guts to say it.
Well then, youngster, how much do you guys intend to give? If the amount isn’t enough, I might not change plans.
Hao-ge expectantly said.
Yang Chen thought about it, then raised just his middle finger at Hao-ge,
I’ll give you this.
Hao-ge creased his brows, then asked,
One finger, so ten thousand?
Yang Chen shook his head with a smile.
Ten thousand is too little, so it’s a hundred thousand?
Asked Hao-ge
Yang Chen still shook his head.
One million!? You guys are giving a total of two million!?
Hao-ge was delighted.
Yang Chen felt helpless, and spoke in a sorrowful manner,
Is money all your eyes can see? Can’t you tell that I’m ridiculing you with my middle finger?
Hao-ge nearly fainted from anger, and his face became flushed by anger. If it wasn’t because he had short hair, he might actually have steam coming out of his head.
What the hell, you’re toying with me!?
Shouted Hao-ge.
Yang Chen waved his hands,
No way, I’m not interested in toying with men.
Hao-ge finally lost his patience, with a nefarious smile he said,
I have no interest in wasting my time with you. Since the woman in the car isn’t willing to come out, then I, Ah Hao, will invite her out in your place! I will show you what’s a true man right in your gigolo face!
As he said that, Hao-ge strutted to the passenger seat’s door, and opened it!
