Chapter 1100: You Saying This Makes Me Lose Face
by xennovelEvening.
Wang Kun led four young men out of Jiangzhou International Airport.
They stood at the airport entrance.
Wang Kun dialed Xu Shaochen’s number and said coldly “That guy named Xu I’m here now tell me where to make the deal.”
He exuded a sense of coldness from his very core.
After all, he needed to act in front of those four guys behind him.
Those four were supposedly there to protect him but in reality, they were there to monitor him.
One of them was the crew-cut man often seen with Wang Lan.
This crew-cut man was Liao Wenzu who had been working with Wang Lan since his teens and was Wang Lan’s absolute confidant.
This showed that despite Wang Lan’s pleasant words, his trust in Wang Kun was limited.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have sent his trusted aide. Frankly if things went south, those three wouldn’t follow Wang Kun’s orders.
Under such circumstances, Wang Kun couldn’t possibly get chummy with Xu Shaochen in their presence.
He called Xu Shaochen first as a hint to him.
Hearing Wang Kun’s tone, Xu Shaochen knew there were people around him and cleverly said “No rush. I regret not treating you well last time on Paradise Island. Luckily a new restaurant opened in Jiangzhou yesterday. Let’s eat and then talk.”
This sounded like mockery as it brought up the incident where Wang Kun was captured on Paradise Island.
“Hmph! That guy named Xu I’m not wasting time with you. Send me the address tonight I’m taking the person away.”
With a cold snort, Wang Kun ended the call.
“Ding—”
His phone pinged with an address from Xu Shaochen.
Wang Kun glanced at it then hailed a cab.
…
Half an hour later.
Wang Kun entered a high-end Western restaurant with the four men.
Inside, he immediately spotted Xu Shaochen.
After all, Xu Shaochen was with Yuxiu, a handsome man and a beautiful woman hard to ignore.
“Young Master Kun welcome to Jiangzhou.”
Seeing Wang Kun approach Xu Shaochen smiled holding a half-smoked cigar reached out a hand to him.
Wang Kun sneered dismissively as Liao Wenzu stepped forward to shake Xu Shaochen’s hand for him.
As Liao Wenzu’s hand approached, Xu Shaochen withdrew his hand, flicked the cigar, and ashes fell into Liao Wenzu’s palm.
Using his hand as an ashtray.
After flicking off the ash, Xu Shaochen acted nonchalantly and smiled at Wang Kun. “Young Master Kun please sit. This restaurant just opened it’s my first time here.”
Liao Wenzu suppressed his anger clenching his fist and withdrawing it with the ash.
Wang Kun gave Xu Shaochen a cold look then pulled out a chair to sit.
Liao Wenzu and the others followed suit as Xu Shaochen casually remarked “Young Master Kun it seems your dogs lack manners. Since when do beasts sit at their master’s table?”
Liao Wenzu and the others were furious, veins bulging from being so insulted.
“Bang!”
Wang Kun slammed the table glaring at Xu Shaochen. “That guy named Xu don’t push it! I’m here for a deal not to be insulted!”
Liao Wenzu and the others gained a bit more respect for Wang Kun for standing strong against Xu Shaochen.
“Just a joke, no need to get worked up. Let’s sit, sit. I’m paying tonight.”
Xu Shaochen laughed sitting down with an arm around Yuxiu kicking back proudly.
Wang Kun and his group sat opposite Xu Shaochen as waiters started serving dishes.
“Xu Shaochen…”
“Shh!”
Just as Wang Kun started to speak Xu Shaochen interrupted “Let’s eat first okay? I want to try this new restaurant’s food.”
Hearing this, Wang Kun stopped talking and began cutting his steak.
“Ah!”
“Crash—”
Suddenly, Yuxiu’s wine glass slipped and shattered on the floor.
Instantly, all eyes in the restaurant turned to them.
“It’s okay just a glass.” Seeing Yuxiu’s guilt, Xu Shaochen gently patted her hand then called the waiter. “Waiter.”
“Sir.”
A waiter approached them.
“My girlfriend accidentally broke a glass. I’ll pay for it and the bill now.”
Xu Shaochen said calmly a glass meant nothing to him.
“Alright sir please wait a moment.”
With a smile, the waiter picked up the glass shards.
Soon after, the waiter returned with a notebook and handed it to Xu Shaochen. “Sir this is your bill please check it.”
“Waiter, there’s a mistake on this bill get your manager.”
Seeing the bill for 150,000 Yuan, Xu Shaochen frowned.
He had checked the menu and only the wine was expensive at 50,000. How could it add up to 150,000? While 150,000 wasn’t much to him, he wouldn’t spend it wastefully.
“There’s no need.”
Right then a middle-aged man in a suit came over. “I’m the manager. Your bill is not for the food but for the glass. It’s an imported antique worth 60,000 each.”
“You must be joking! What restaurant uses 60,000 each cups?” Even Yuxiu couldn’t help but speak up, seeing the absurdity.
The manager chuckled “Just because other places don’t doesn’t mean we don’t.”
“Where’s your boss? Kindly ask him to come over.”
Xu Shaochen said calmly.
The manager straightened up and said condescendingly “Sorry, our boss isn’t in Jiangzhou. I have full authority here.”
“These friends just arrived from abroad” Xu Shaochen pointed at Wang Kun and said “You’re making me lose face in front of them don’t you know?”
“Also I’m curious why you can’t address me as sir. Is it me?”
Seeing Xu Shaochen smiling calmly.
Yuxiu knew this manager and the newly opened restaurant would be in trouble.
