Invincible Urban Evil Doctor

Chapter 756: Chapter 774: Obediently Pay the Money (Part 1)

Jiang Letian’s face looked a bit unpleasant, but at this moment he couldn’t say anything, so he forced a smile and said,

"I have some business at the company that needs immediate attention. Please enjoy your meal, I’ll leave first!"

Lin Xi stared at Jiang Letian for a few seconds, seemingly not noticing his lie, and said with a concerned face, "Then President Jiang should hurry, go back quickly and handle it properly!"

"After all, I’ve heard about startups like yours, working overtime day and night, and if things aren’t handled well, they might go bankrupt!"

Jiang Letian, "..."

He cursed silently in his heart, "You’d go bankrupt first!"

"A dog can’t spit out ivory!"

But right now, he just wanted to leave early, so he didn’t want to get entangled with Lin Xi!

So, he nodded in agreement with Lin Xi’s words and said, "Thank you, little brother, for understanding. I’ll be off then!"

At this moment, he couldn’t help but glance at Zhu Ying and Lin Yanxia, really reluctant to leave!

But for the sake of tens of thousands of dollars, he decided to forsake beauty.

Just as he took a few steps, Lin Xi suddenly seemed to remember something and shouted, "President Jiang, wait!"

Jiang Letian paused; Lin Xi’s voice was so loud that almost everyone in the restaurant heard it, so he couldn’t pretend not to.

He turned around, forcing a smile and asked, "Little brother, do you have something else?"

"Yes, there’s one more thing!" Lin Xi replied first, then looked at the pretty waitress, "Miss, the ten orders I mentioned just now, could you please hurry and serve them?"

The pretty waitress looked at Jiang Letian, who was about to leave, as if asking for confirmation!

However, Jiang Letian directly avoided her gaze and didn’t look at her.

So, at this moment, the pretty waitress hesitated a bit.

Seeing her hesitation, Lin Xi got a little angry, "Hurry up, President Jiang is treating us, what are you afraid of!"

"Besides, even if President Jiang doesn’t pay, do I look like someone who can’t afford it!"

Upon hearing this, the pretty waitress looked embarrassed and left to place the order for Lin Xi.

Only then did Lin Xi look at Jiang Letian, and said, "President Jiang, the thing I just forgot is, could you pay the bill before you leave!"

"It doesn’t take much time, just a swipe of the card!"

Jiang Letian’s face was uncertain, and he didn’t reply immediately.

Seeing this scene, the smile on Lin Yanxia’s face became even more pronounced; this little devil is definitely doing this on purpose!

Zhu Ying looked a bit worried, concerned that Lin Xi’s way of doing things might be too much. After all, if they pissed him off, they’d offend someone!

But if they offend him, it doesn’t seem to matter much!

Well, it’s not like he’s an employee of his company.

The three beauties, Han Xin, couldn’t help but chuckle. They didn’t particularly like Jiang Letian’s pretentiousness earlier, but they didn’t want to embarrass him either.

But now seeing someone embarrassing him, they were very happy indeed.

Xu Menghua glanced worriedly at her husband, noting that his face had darkened, and saw him stand up and walk to Jiang Letian, saying, "Little brother, my boss really has an urgent matter at the company!"

"We can’t delay; if it’s not handled in time, it’ll cost at least tens of millions, maybe even hundreds!"

"Of course, if handled well, we’ll earn at least this much!"

"So we’ll each pay for our own meals this time, and President Jiang will treat everyone to a better meal next time, and you can eat whatever you like, promising it won’t cost less than two hundred thousand."

Hearing his subordinate speak like this, Jiang Letian nodded in satisfaction, indicating that’s exactly the case; he must return immediately now.

Though he spoke like this, it sounded too fake to outsiders!

This clearly comes off as not wanting to pay!

Lin Yanxia frowned slightly, realizing that the person Hua’Er introduced is really not up to the mark. He’s so worried about such a small amount, and yet wants to woo her Xiaoying, clearly like a toad lusting after a swan!

Moreover, after Xiaoying left with Lin Xi, he tried to make his move on her, and that was when she completely wrote him off from her mind.

Zhu Ying’s face looked a bit grim, not because of anything else, but because if everyone paid for themselves, Lin Xi had probably spent over half a million alone. Could he really afford that much?

The three Han Xin women sighed softly. At this point, they didn’t think too much, the only thought in their minds was, what the hell is this Jiang guy!

Xu Menghua, after standing with her husband, felt that Lin Xi was in the wrong.

So, at this moment, she wasn’t just displeased with Lin Xi but also with everyone else!

Regarding Xu Menghua’s husband’s words, Lin Xi thought for a while and said, "No, not this time!"

"Also, with the time you’re using, you could’ve already paid the bill!"

He certainly wouldn’t give any face, after all, this person came to hit on his sister!

He then showed a puzzled look on his face, "Could it be that President Jiang is broke and can’t afford it?"

"If that’s the case, why not let your subordinate pay, after all, he does look quite wealthy!"

When Xu Menghua’s husband heard this, he instantly shrank back a few steps, putting some distance between himself and Jiang Letian.

After all, adding it all up was almost seven hundred thousand!

That’s as much as his annual salary and benefits combined.

It’s imaginable that if he paid, Jiang Letian definitely wouldn’t reimburse him.

At that time, he could already imagine his wife Xu Menghua’s murderous gaze, and life would definitely not be pleasant!

Seeing his subordinate’s reaction, Jiang Letian couldn’t help but feel a burst of anger; if it weren’t for this couple introducing him to beauties, would he be in this situation today? Now it’s all become a big joke.

But asking him to pay?

Dream on!

He stopped pretending, changed his expression, and said directly, "I’m sorry, I’m out of money right now!"

"All the money has been invested in the company operations!"

"And didn’t you just say, even if I’m out of money, you can pay for it?"

"Well, then show me how you pay!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xi had a sudden realization and said, "So you were broke all along!"

"You should’ve said so earlier, but instead, you pretended to be wealthy and even told me to eat as much as I could!"

"If I’d known, I would’ve eaten less!"

He then looked at the pretty waitress who had returned, "Miss, can we cancel the ten orders I just placed?"

The pretty waitress clearly heard their conversation earlier, "I’m sorry, sir, but the items are already preparing, they cannot be canceled now!"

Hearing this, Lin Xi sighed, "Actually, I could pay too!"

"But you see, President Jiang, now I want you to pay!"

"What to do?"

Jiang Letian snorted coldly, since the facade was torn down, he decided not to use excuses, and said directly, "I’m sorry, I can only pay for my own meal now!"

With that, he turned around and headed toward the cashier, eager to finish and leave as he didn’t want to stay here a moment longer!

Seeing his actions, Lin Xi hadn’t made any moves yet when Nangong Qing, who’s been holding back, couldn’t stand it anymore because he despises those who brag but don’t keep promises!

"Stop right there!" Nangong Qing shouted at Jiang Letian’s back, "Obediently pay what you promised, or else the consequences will be severe!"

He seemed a bit frivolous, yet it didn’t feel like a joke.
