Chapter 703 Whatever you have
Chapter 703 Whatever you have
Liu Shan stood to the right of Yue Ling but a little more than half a foot in front of her. When he saw the ten robust men, he wanted to tell his boss and Uncle Nuo to leave first. He and everyone else can stay behind as one could see that these people were up to no good.
However, before he could say anything, the middle-aged man had already walked towards the group.
He was about to walk over to help Uncle Nuo, but in that second, the group made way for a man and woman.
When he saw the man, like his boss, his eyes dimmed cautiously, and he takes a small step to block his boss. As the man walked up to the table Uncle Nuo had suggested, he was able to see the woman clearer.
His tremble and all the colors drained from his face. He was sure he only had one drink because his alcohol tolerance is low, but he is sure that the woman is…
"Ling Ni…"
He murmurs her name and like something was pulling him forward, he takes a small step towards her.
"Don't."
Just as he was about to take another step, he heard Yue Ling's soft voice from next to him as she grabs hold of his wrist. Her voice was quiet but enough to bring him back to reality.
He slowly turns his head to look at her and sees her slightly shake her head. His lips press tightly together, and he clenches his fists to the point his arms trembled angrily.
Yue Ling looks away from her assistant and back to the group. Her gaze didn't stay on them for long as she looks at Tao Meng then to Ling Ni.
As they at down, she sends a glance to Tang Zhonghui then to her subordinates.
It was a quick glance, but everyone saw and quickly came to an understanding.
Yue Ling looks away from Tao Meng and Ling Ni. She held his wrist and pulls him down to sit on the chair next to her. Seconds after her, all her subordinates sat back down.
From the moment Tao Meng and his group arrived, it was as if no one had drunk any liquor no were anyone drunk.
They had planned to go home after cleaning up, but since this group decided to force Uncle Nuo to keep his food stall open, they will stay too.
If anyone dares to cause any trouble, don't blame fate for their misfortune.
Unaware of who he is messing with, Tao Meng never took his eyes off of Yue Ling. He was worried that she might leave, but seeing her sit down, the corners of his mouth curl up into a malicious sneer.
He looks at Uncle Nuo and the maliciousness he portrayed disappears.
"Bring us whatever you have on the menu."
Uncle Nuo showed no fear in his expression. He wanted to refute the man, but not wanting any trouble to occur, he could only agree. If he allowed trouble to happen, it means he'll only be troubling Yue Ling and that's the last thing he wants to do.
He smiles a chuckle and gestures a polite bow.
"Please wait then, I will be back in a minute."
As he turns around, he sees that everyone else had seated except for Tang Zhonghui. He sends the boy a glance as he knows that although he (Tang Zhonghui) appears carefree, once he is angered, his temper is no different from Asura from Hell.
Tang Zhonghui knew exactly what the middle-aged man was thinking. However, he didn't lose his cool and was as calm as the night itself.
The table he had just cleaned up was now occupied by Tao Meng's men, so he walks to the table next to them and sat down. He made sure the chair he sat on allowed him a clear view of the group.
"Uncle, give me two steamed buns when you can."
*Slam—
His last word had only fallen when a loud slam sounds from in front of him. He glances at the person but his entire being held nothing but indifference.
Man 1 stares at Tang Zhonghui without batting an eye. The boy looked very stylish but more like a spoilt brat from a wealthy family.
However, he has to give the boy props for not flinching when he slammed his fist on the table.
"Kid, my boss hasn't even received his food. Wait your turn or get lost."
Hearing him, another man (we'll call him Man 2) chimes in from the right with a burst of laughter. He was the skinniest one out of the group and his lazy eyes enhanced his haggard expression.
"Wait his turn? From what everyone can see, he was about to leave. Could it be that he is trying to show off in front of all these people?"
Another wave of laughter sounds from all ten men. However, Tang Zhonghui didn't care at all. It was as if every word they said entered one ear and out the other.
He kept calm and sat alone at the table without any care on his face.
Not too long after, Gui Tian Lan and Gui Zhongmin stood up from the table they had sat and joined their friend.
The two brothers didn't forget to glance at the group of rogues before taking their seats.
Man 2 scoffs sarcastically at the sight of them. Each person was well dressed and looked handsome, but to him, they only looked like women in a men's body. One flick from him was probably all he needed to take their lives.
As he thought this while sizing them, his eyes met Gui Tian Lan's eyes and he sneers.
"Look at this prick. How dare you glare at me?"
He spat each word and slams his palm on the table then points at the older twin with sinister eyes.
"You must be courting death, kid."
"Xiao."
Man 2, who's name is Xiao, is suddenly stopped by Tao Meng and abruptly shuts his mouth. However, he made sure to stare at Gui Tian Lan with eyes full of killing intent.
