Chapter 862: Can Only Watch…
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
“We were still worried that the small punks would retaliate against Lele and me, but I did not expect Boss Zhu to solve the trouble for us one step ahead…” w.a.n.g Mei said with some helplessness, “After that, Boss Zhu asked Lele and me to eat together. It was inappropriate for us to refuse, so we had a meal together.”
“He is pursuing Huang Lele?” asked Yang Ming.
” En , yes. It was only recently discovered.” w.a.n.g Mei said, “Before Boss Zhu only expressed friends.h.i.+p for us. He often took the flights that Lele and I were on. When we got off the plane, Boss Zhu always asked Lele and me out for a meal.”
“What att.i.tude does Huang Lele have?” Yang Ming didn’t care about these. He just wanted to ask about Huang Lele’s thoughts. Although the two people were now lovers, the emotional foundation was not very strong. Yang Ming didn’t want someone to take advantage.
“When Huang Lele knew the intentions of Boss Zhu, she alienated him.” w.a.n.g Mei said, “Lele does not like people like Boss Zhu. Boss Zhu does not know about Lele’s family, so he always takes the opportunity to display his wealth in front of her, which makes her feel that this person is very vulgar.”
Yang Ming was silent after he heard it. Although he didn’t know what Huang Lele’s family did, how could they be poor if they had such a huge Huawei Casino there? Displaying his wealth in front of Huang Lele was like playing a big knife before Guan Gong[1].
“But I am quite puzzled. You show off way more than Boss Zhu. How does Lele like you?” After a conversation at the dinner table and a few gla.s.ses of red wine, w.a.n.g Mei gradually opened up. In her opinion, Yang Ming was very easy-going, but she just thought of him as someone too serious, so they could now make a joke.
“I don’t… You see that what I drink now is free red wine. How can I show off more than Zhu Youhua?” Yang Ming said with a smile and pointed to the red wine on the table.
” Hehe , I am talking about showing off in other aspects. But to be honest, if it weren’t for Zhang Bing, I would have also fallen in love with you.” w.a.n.g Mei smiled.
“Don’t talk nonsense. Zhang Bing will take a knife to cut me at night!” Yang Ming also laughed and said.
“I will definitely not! Bro, I don’t want to go to the police station again…” Zhang Bing said with a look of sadness.
All three people laughed.
Zhu Youhua just came back from the bar, and he was followed by a waiter at the restaurant.
“I say, what did you say that is so interesting? You’re all laughing so happily. Tell me also.” Zhu Youhua sat down very familiarly and spoke.
“It’s nothing.” w.a.n.g Mei shook her head. “What did you order? In fact, we don’t need to have too much. We have almost finished eating.”
“How can that be? This is my treat. Order more!” Zhu Youhua waved and said, “I ordered a bottle of Lafite from 2000, and a few desserts. You can order something for Lele.”
As he said this, the waiter put the menu in front of w.a.n.g Mei.
w.a.n.g Mei flipped through the menu. Under Zhu Youhua’s lobbying, she had no choice but to order a few desserts that Huang Lele loved, and then returned the menu to the waiter.
“Right, buddy. I want to discuss something with you.” After the waiter left, Zhu Youhua turned around and said to Yang Ming.
” Oh ? What is it?” Yang Ming was eating a lamb chop. When he heard Zhu Youhua ask a question, he spat out the bones in his mouth and said to himself, “This lamb chop is good!”
“How about you sit at the table at the side later?” Zhu Youhua pointed to an empty table next to him.
“Go to the side? Why?” Yang Ming pretended not to know and asked. He wanted to see what trick Zhu Youhua was playing.
“There is still a friend coming here, and there is no more room here.” Zhu Youhua shrugged and said. He had never met Yang Ming before, nor did he hear w.a.n.g Mei or Huang Lele mentioned this person. His following consciousness thought that Yang Ming was definitely a friend of Zhang Bing, and did not know Huang Lele.
However, in fact, Yang Ming was a friend of Zhang Bing, but he was very familiar with Huang Lele.
” Oh , but I’m not full yet.” Yang Ming continued to pick up the lamb chop.
“That doesn’t matter. You can go to the table to eat. Just simply order anything. I will pay for it!” Zhu Youhua patted his chest and promised.
“Really? Can I order something I like to eat?” Yang Ming purposely asked in surprise.
“Of course! I said that I’ll treat you!” Zhu Youhua said very generously.
” Oh … This suggestion sounds good!” Yang Ming swallowed the lamb chop in his mouth, and then said uneasily, “Is it true that you will treat me?”
“Of course, it is true.” Zhu Youhua somewhat didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. He thought that Yang Ming was a poor guy who was afraid that Zhu Youhua would ask him to pay the bill when he sat alone at the other table. So he said, “You ask Miss w.a.n.g Mei. When you eat with me, at which time did I not pay?”
“I just met w.a.n.g Mei not long ago.” Yang Ming said, “I still have some doubts. If you don’t pay the bill later, am I not being played?”
“Hey, I haven’t seen anyone as vigilant as you…” Zhu Youhua laughed aloud and then said to the waiter, “How about this? I’ll put my credit card with the waiter and now tell him that I will pay for these two tables!”
As he said this, Zhu Youhua took out his credit card and handed it to the waiter.
“That’s a deal. I’m relieved!” Yang Ming nodded, very satisfied.
Zhu Youhua had never met such a petty person. But come to think about it, Yang Ming was probably not from the rich cla.s.s. He probably ate here because he was treated by w.a.n.g Mei or Zhang Bing. He was here to freeload. Zhu Youhua saw the way he ate lamb chops deliciously; he couldn’t be a rich man.
Under the gaze of Zhang Bing and w.a.n.g Mei, Yang Ming immediately picked up his coat and sat down at a table not far away, leaving the original four-person table with an empty seat.
Zhang Bing and w.a.n.g Mei didn’t know what Yang Ming was doing. Maybe one of his nerves was connected wrongly? Huang Lele was Yang Ming’s woman, but did he actually give her up? This was not like Yang Ming’s character.
In Zhang Bing’s opinion, this guy actually dared to have intentions toward Huang Lele. It was good enough for Yang Ming not to kick him out, but actually to give him a seat? But since Yang Ming was willing to do so, what could they say?
Yang Ming called the waiter and re-ordered. The waiter just got the guarantee from Zhu Youhua, so he immediately charged the ordered food to Zhu Youhua’s name.
“I want two fried foie gras, two asparagus, and steak…” Yang Ming immediately picked the pricey dishes. When he ordered the meal, Yang Ming let Zhang Bing and w.a.n.g Mei order some expensive dishes, but the two thought that Yang Ming was troubled enough for them. They found it inappropriate for Yang Ming to spend money, so w.a.n.g Mei asked to pay for the bill. Therefore, Yang Ming could only pick some cheap dishes.
But now, Yang Ming didn’t want to save money for that Zhu Youhua. If this guy wanted to put on a smug act, then let him act smug. Anyways, Yang Ming would not be so kind-hearted to save him money.
“And another bottle… En , which year of red wine do you have here? Is there anything from 1982?” asked Yang Ming.
” I apologize, sir. We don’t have any wine from 1982.” The waiter said.
“Which year is the earliest you have?” asked Yang Ming.
“There is a Lafite from 1990. Is that okay?” asked the waiter.
“Okay, how much is it?” asked Yang Ming.
“66,800 Pataca.” replied the waiter.
“Then bring me a bottle,” said Yang Ming.
“Okay…” The waiter was sweating. This guy is really good at ordering. Even though someone else is paying for it, he can’t do this. However, the more he spent, the more bonus the waiter would get. The waiter was too happy to be too nosy!
However, in fear that Zhu Youhua would not pay the bill when he finally checked out, the waiter decided to inform Zhu Youhua.
“Sir, the gentleman on the other side has ordered these dishes. Do you want to go through it?” The waiter came to Zhu Youhua and asked.
Zhu Youhua was intrigued with w.a.n.g Mei about Huang Lele’s current situation, and when Huang Lele would fly to Donghai again so he could take the flight. How would he be free to acknowledge the waiter? So he said with some dissatisfaction, “Is there a need to go through it? My credit card is with you. What is there to be afraid of?”
“I apologize, sir.” The waiter thought. d.a.m.n, I kindly reminded you, but you are acting bad*ss with me. Forget it. You’d better not cry later. He respectfully apologized and quickly left, but his heart was filled with despise.
It didn’t take long for Huang Lele to come. Today, Huang Lele wore a light blue cheongsam-style cotton jacket, which looked exceptionally pleasant, just like the porcelain dolls everyone celebrated with on TV for New Year’s.
Although Zhu Youhua was talking to w.a.n.g Mei, he had been staring at the door out of the corner of his eyes. When he saw Huang Lele, he was overjoyed, stood up and waved to Huang Lele. “Lele, here!”
After Huang Lele came in, it was natural to look for w.a.n.g Mei in the hall. When she saw the table with w.a.n.g Mei, Zhang Bing, and Zhu Youhua, she frowned slightly. Why isn’t Yang Ming there?
She thought that when w.a.n.g Mei told her to come out to eat, Yang Ming must be there. But now… Huang Lele was wondering, then she suddenly saw a table not far from w.a.n.g Mei’s table. Yang Ming was sitting there!
Huang Lele suddenly showed a happy smile and walked quickly to the table.
As Zhu Youhua saw Huang Lele come over, he stood up and pulled out the seat next to him like a gentleman and waited for Huang Lele to go over. Zhu Youhua deliberately put on a cool POSE [2] and stood there, waiting for the beauty to come.
However, Huang Lele did not seem to see it. As she pa.s.sed Zhu Youhua’s side, she did not make the slightest pause. Instead, she crossed him directly and came to Yang Ming’s table. She self-servingly pulled out the chair opposite of Yang Ming and lightly sat on it.
” Ah … this… how?” Zhu Youhua felt that his brain short-circuited for a while. He didn’t know what happened. What is going on? He could only wait stupidly to see what happened…
