Chapter 772: It’s Okay If You Didn’t Hear Clearly
by xennovel“Is he not an ordinary person? What, does he have three arms? I didn’t notice anything special about him. You might as well say he’s not human.”
Deng Tianwen snorted, glancing at Xie Bin with disdain.
His Deng Family still had over 30 shooters out there, besides those who had surrendered and been locked up.
So he was now full of confidence, his words carrying a hint of aggression.
“You little bastard, if you’ve got the guts, leave an address. I’ll show you today whether I have three arms or not.”
Xie Bin said through gritted teeth.
Manager Zhang’s face also darkened as he said coldly, “Gentlemen, I advise you to recognize your position. If anything happens, don’t say I didn’t warn you.”
“You might sound fancy calling yourself a manager, but frankly, you’re just a wage slave. The way you talk, one might think you own this hotel. Get as far away from me as you can. If anything happens, don’t say I didn’t warn you either.”
Deng Tianwen slammed the table as he stood up, glaring at Manager Zhang with undisguised contempt and mockery.
“You… you… This is outrageous! Absolutely outrageous!”
Manager Zhang’s face alternated between red and white with anger. It was the first time he had been insulted like this, and he was furious.
“Old Zhang! Call the hotel security up here. Kick them all out. Damn it, I can’t believe we can’t handle these punk kids!”
Xie Bin cursed.
“Old Xie, what’s going on? I could hear your voice from far away. Are you trying to tear the place down?”
Just then, a leisurely voice reached everyone’s ears.
Xu Shaochen frowned, feeling an odd sense of familiarity with the voice, but couldn’t quite place where he had heard it before.
They couldn’t see who had arrived from inside the private room.
Xie Bin turned around, his face suddenly fawning like a dog seeing its master: “Young Master Yang, you’re here so early? I haven’t even prepared the room yet.”
“What’s going on?”
Yang Ming asked calmly.
Xie Bin said, “There are no private rooms left. I asked these people to vacate this one, but they refused and even gave me this big gash on my forehead.”
“Is that so? They’re that arrogant? Let’s go take a look. I can’t believe I can’t even find a place to eat today.”
Noticing the blood on Xie Bin’s forehead, Yang Ming frowned slightly and headed towards the private room.
Having been humiliated by Xu Shaochen earlier that morning, he was full of pent-up anger and looking for a place to vent.
He didn’t expect someone to conveniently show up asking for trouble.
“Young Master Yang, please be careful.”
Xie Bin hurriedly followed.
Entering the room, Yang Ming immediately saw Xu Shaochen and froze on the spot.
Then he recognized Chen Ju, Zhao Li, and Liang Huan.
He felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his mind in chaos, trampling his fragile psyche.
He now had the urge to turn and run, if his already diminished courage would allow him to do so.
Seeing Yang Ming, Xu Shaochen revealed a mocking smile. No wonder the voice had sounded familiar. It really was a small world.
“Young Master Yang, it’s them. Damn it, a bunch of ungrateful bastards.”
Xie Bin walked up to Yang Ming, feeling emboldened, and cursed while pointing at Xu Shaochen and the others.
Hearing this, Yang Ming raised an eyebrow and turned to slap Xie Bin hard across the face.
“Slap!”
The crisp sound startled everyone.
“Young Master Yang…” Xie Bin held his face, looking at Yang Ming in bewilderment.
However, Yang Ming ignored him completely and greeted Xu Shaochen and the others respectfully: “Young Master Xu, Young Master Chen, Young Master Zhao, Young Master Liang, I’m terribly sorry. I had no idea you four were dining here.”
In his heart, he cursed Xie Bin’s ancestors to the eighteenth generation.
He had already been humiliated by Xu Shaochen this morning, and now it was even more intense, giving him a quadruple dose of misery.
Seeing this scene, Xie Bin and Manager Zhang were instantly dumbfounded.
Even if they were idiots, they knew they had offended someone they shouldn’t have, and their hearts were suddenly
filled with anxiety.
“Do you know him?”
Xu Shaochen pointed at Xie Bin and asked Yang Ming.
Yang Ming shook his head without hesitation: “I wouldn’t dare lie to Young Master Xu. I’ve only met him once and don’t know him well.”
“Young Master Yang…” Xie Bin was instantly dumbfounded. This was a clear case of denial after getting what he wanted.
“Slap!”
Before he could finish speaking, Yang Ming turned and slapped him again: “Shut up! Do you have any right to speak here?”
Feeling the stinging pain on his face, Xie Bin felt both wronged and frustrated, but didn’t dare to speak again.
“He owes my friend a deposit…” Xu Shaochen said, looking at Sun Hai: “Brother Sun, how much was it again?”
“Fifteen million,” Sun Hai quickly replied.
Xu Shaochen nodded and looked at Yang Ming: “You heard it, right? A deposit of 150 million. Deal with it.”
“What?”
Both Yang Ming and Xie Bin were dumbfounded. Damn it, we clearly heard fifteen million.
“Didn’t hear clearly?” Xu Shaochen smiled calmly, speaking in a gentle tone: “It’s okay if you didn’t hear clearly. I’ll repeat it for you. A deposit of 250 million. Did you hear it clearly this time?”
Yang Ming and Xie Bin were both stunned, not expecting it to increase by 100 million in the blink of an eye.
Yang Ming kicked the dazed Xie Bin: “Young Master Xu is asking you a question. Did you hear? You owe that gentleman a deposit of 350 million. What are you going to do about it?”
It wasn’t his money anyway, so he didn’t care. He just wanted to get through this crisis safely first.
“Huh?!”
Xie Bin was stunned, not expecting Yang Ming to add another 100 million. Fifteen million had suddenly become 350 million in the blink of an eye.
He forced a smile worse than crying on his face and looked at Sun Hai, his voice trembling: “Chairman Sun, I… I’ll have the finance department transfer the 350 million deposit to you as soon as I get back.”
He just wanted to cry now. Why did he have to rely on his connection with Yang Ming to try and gain some small advantage?
Now, in the blink of an eye, half a year’s profits for the company had flown away.
Sun Hai also nodded in a daze, this was the easiest money he had ever made.
“Young Master Xu, do you have any other instructions? If not, we won’t stay here and get in the way of your meal.”
Yang Ming looked at Xu Shaochen with a fawning expression, inwardly cursing. Damn it, that idiot Yang Hui was going to get it tonight.
Xu Shaochen pointed at Manager Zhang and said word by word:
“Call the hotel owner and have him fired. I really don’t like him.”
