Chapter 76 Gifts Blind the Eyes (2/2)

”What is it?” Hao Ning braced himself and asked, planning to say that he recognized the wrong person, and did not know him at all.

”It's nothing. It'll be great if he isn’t your friend,” The manager looked at Hao Ning and continued, ”Considering his behaviors, we could have called the police. Since he crashed our restaurant in such a state, I'm sure that he will be kept in custody if he gets caught. I was wondering, that since you just stood out and helped us, if that person is not a friend of yours, then we could report the case without worry. After all, with the footage here and other evidence, it should not be a problem to find this person.”

”Err …” Hao Ning was dumbstruck. This manager was resourceful. If Hao Ning said that he did not know Qili, then it would be very troublesome if Qili got captured after the manager called the police. However, if Hao Ning admitted that Qili was his friend, then the next sentence manager would probably say was ”Please help us find your friend so we can take him to the police station.” Either way, Qili would end badly. Although he did not know what had happened to Qili, Hao Ning felt a little uneasy. He had many thoughts, while no clue on how to respond.

”Let me take care of it. I'll compensate you all for stuff smashed and the medical fees of the security guards.” Zhang Dalong, who had been silent at the side, spoke out and told Jienan, ”Go and take care of this. It's on my account.”

Jienan nodded and said to the manager, ”Do you accept WeChat?”

”Sir,” The manager smiled as he looked at Jienan, ”The amount may be quite a bit. I recommend you to use your card so that we can manage it a little easier.”

”Well,” Jienan blushed and looked at Zhang Dalong. Zhang Dalong smiled and waved his hand, then said: ”We probably should work harder.”

Jienan nodded and took out a black card. Then he walked forward and glanced at the manager. The manager looked at the card, then the crowd, and left without a word.

Hao Ning sighed. Since money is made from peace, the manager did not want to make things difficult for anyone. It was just that he could not report to his boss for such a mess, which was why he asked that question just now. Zhang Dalong knew his thoughts well, so he merely spent money to settle the issue. Still, it was an embarrassment to let an outside cope with the mess caused by his friend.

”Hey, the three of you, I have already introduced myself. Do you mind introducing yourself as well?” Zhang Dalong said to the three of them in a smile as he watched Jienan leave.

”...” Hao Ning sighed, ”My name is Hao Ning, and this is Zhou Yuan; that is Liu Shuai.”

”Pleased to meet you,” Zhang Dalong smiled. ”Your mouths are firm. Well, we have all watched a big battle together, don't you want to talk?”

”Done!” Jienan ran over, but Zhang Dalong did not bother with him. He continued smiling at the three.

Hao Ning thought for a moment, then looked at Zhou Yuan and Liu Shuai. Liu Shuai nodded and said, ”Seems like he is not a bad guy.”

Zhou Yuan also agreed.

Seeing the attitude of the two of them, Hao Ning paused for a moment, then said to Zhang Dalong, ”Fine, but you have to promise me one thing first.”

Zhang Dalong nodded, ”Promise what?”

”Do not hurt Zhou Yuan.”
