Chapter 88 (2/2)
“Forget it ….. Ah’Qiang, why are you spending so much time speaking nonsense with him?” Qin Lang turned to Ma Hongliang and said, “You like to drink white wine, right? Drink that bottle of wine and this matter will be in the past.”
“Okay, many thanks, brother Qin.” Ma Hongliang felt like he had received an amnesty. From Qin Lang’s words, as long as he drank this bottle of wine, Qin Lang and Han San Qiang wouldn’t find him any trouble. So, Ma Hongliang didn’t speak any more and immediately started drinking the wine bottle. Even though this way of drinking would surely harm his stomach, it was better than having his body be injured. Ma Hongliang knew of the conduct of people of the underground path; today, he had offended Han San Qiang’s ‘big brother’, it was pretty good that his body wasn’t divided into ‘small parts’.
“I am sorry, uncle Zhao, I have disturbed your dinner party. Let me pay the bill for this meal.” Qin Lang smilingly said towards Zhao Hongfang, giving face to him.
“It’s alright …… there is no need for that.” Zhao Hongfang promptly declined, “I will pay the bills for the two tables!”
“Gentlemen, you both don’t have to argue over this, our restaurant will take care of this meal.” The middle-aged businessman who had followed behind Han San Qiang spoke up, then he stretched his hands to greet Qin Lang, “Your humble servant, Yu Chengming is this small store’s boss. I ask sir Qin to take care of us in the future.”
Yu Chengming was particularly involved in food and beverages, a businessman in hotel industry and had some reputation at Xiayang city. Although Yi Pin Tang restaurant was opened up by Yu Chengming, this place was hired from Han San Qiang, however. When Yu Chengming learned Qin Lang was Han San Qiang’s ‘big brother’, he couldn’t help being shocked, but he was a man who was accustomed to seeing waves and winds. He wouldn’t underestimate Qin Lang just because the latter was only a high school student. In Yu Chengming’s view, someone who could make Han San Qiang willingly become the younger brother, was definitely not an ordinary person. Let alone a senior high school student, even if he was a junior high school student, he must be given enough respect.
“Manager Yu, that isn’t good.” Qin Lang promptly declined, he inwardly praised this Yu Chengming’s behavior. If they were to be compared, Ma Hongliang’s moral quality would have too much of a difference, becoming pretentious just by relying on some money and connection, it was disgusting.
“Mister Qin, this is your first visit, you must let me be the host. That’s right, this is the store’s Platinum VIP card, please accept it and come visit us to eat with friends.” Yu Chengming took out a VIP card and gave to Qin Lang. Additionally, he felt he had to show consideration to Zhao Hongfang, so he gave a VIP card to him too. Only, the discount amount fell short of Qin Lang’s Platinum VIP card.
Peng!
Ma Hongliang put the empty wine bottle on the table and then said to Qin Lang and Han San Qiang: “Brother Qin, brother Qiang …… I will take my leave first.”
“Walk slowly.” Qin Lang indicated that Ma Hongliang could leave.
Ma Hongliang felt like he had received an amnesty. Right now, there was already an overwhelming flood in his stomach, if it was not for his strong self endurance, there would probably be a ‘live broadcast’ in front of everyone. After coming out of the private room, Ma Hongliang immediately hurried towards the toilet.
“Uncle Zhao, I apologize for disturbing your appet.i.te.” Qin Lang said apologetically before he left the room.
“It’s alright ….. There is absolutely no problem.” Zhao Hongfang promptly said. There was not much friends.h.i.+p between him and Ma Hongliang, he invited the latter to dinner, only to make connection with someone high up in society. Now, he knew Qin Lang had such background, so there was no need for him to painstakingly make friends with a person like Ma Hongliang.
“Alright, old Zhao!” After Qin Lang and others left the private room, one of Zhao Hongfang’s friend enviously said, “Your son is really amazing, he actually has such a good relation with people like brother Qiang. Brother, you really are not sincere, if I knew you had such connections, why would I have gone to look for Ma Hongliang for the previous event?”
“Exactly! I can see your son has boundless prospects in the future!” Another guest parroted.
Feeling his friends’ praises and the change in their att.i.tude, Zhao Hongfang felt very happy. He was truly happy with today’s dinner events.
