Chapter 188: Threatening
Before the waiter spoke, Gu Chaoyan took a step forward and asked coldly, “What place is this?”
The head of the gang snorted. Seeing the slightly-chubby girl speaking, he raised his chin and said proudly, “This is the capital!”
“...”
“In the capital, there are tons of people you just can not irritate.”
“...”
“Stop being nosy, you little girl.” He said and then looked at her. “Also, don’t choose to eat at this place either. Soon the restaurant will be gone.”
As the head of the gang said this the other gang members laughed loudly. They weren’t the crazy type. Some people were bold enough to open restaurants on the street yet they either went bankrupt or got closed. It had been years since some foolish people came opening restaurants here. Unexpectedly, such people were seen again. They thought that the owners were either outsiders or stupid. So they were not at all scared.
The head of the gang did not have the intention of speaking more with the girl. He struck the table and shouted. “Where is the manager? Come out here now! We can talk now, if I get impatient, we won’t be able to stay friendly any more.”
Gu Chaoyan laughed coldly. “You look ferocious but you are so stupid! I am standing right in front of you, who else are you turning to?”
What?
The head of the gang looked at Gu Chaoyan with disbelief. After gazing at her for a few more seconds, he burst into laughter with the other men.
The head of the gang looked at Gu Chaoyan with excitement and struck the table. “Oh, it is such a stupid girl like you who decided to open a restaurant here?”
“...”
“Oh girl, you didn’t know about the situation here, so I won’t blame you for a thing. Give me 10,000 yuan and close this restaurant, then the problem will be solved.”
Gu Chaoyan smiled briefly. With her eyes upon him, she said, “You are from Restaurant Jixian?”
The man lifted his chin proudly. He nodded in acknowledgement of what she had said.
“You know what this place is?” Gu Chaoyan asked.
“Where is this place?” The head of the gang asked with a face of confusion.
“It is the capital!” Gu Chaoyan answered. “In the capital, there are tons of people you can’t afford to offend. You are a man, so stop making trouble here.”
The head of the gang was a bit confused at first, but after thinking for a while he realized that it was exactly what he had said.
The tone was so arrogant that the head of the gang paused and observed her face carefully, making sure that she was not someone who should not be irritated. After a few moments of observation, he was sure that he had no impression of who she was. He was not in a low position at Restaurant Jixian, and during the past few years, he had met almost every lady of the capital city. He knew pretty well who to offend and who to stay polite to. And he was certain that she was not a lady from any important family.
The head of the gang became proud again. With a shallow face, he said, “Little girl, don’t pretend to be strong. This is the capital city, and it is the Elder Princess who is behind my restaurant. Do you think that you can afford to offend her?”
As the Elder Princess was mentioned, the head of the gang was expecting to see a scared expression on Gu Chaoyan’s face. He even expected her to s.h.i.+ver.
