Chapter 189 - Bring 10 Jin of Lafite
Chapter 189 of "The Strongest Dandy in the City" kicks off revealing secrets: Tang Xin briefly introduced Jia Yuan to Ye Chenfeng and Han Chuxue.âJia Yuan, this is... Keep reading!
Tang Xin briefly introduced Jia Yuan to Ye Chenfeng and Han Chuxue.âJia Yuan, this is my cell phone number.
Letâs plan to meet up next time!â said Tang Xin to Jia Yuan.
âTang Xin, itâs not easy for us to meet, why donât we all go have dinner together!â Jia Yuan suggested.
âRight.
Since you are friends with Jia Yuan, you are also our friends.
Iâm paying for dinner tonight, so no turning it down!â
Out of the three men, the only one without a girlfriend, Jiang Shaoqi, spoke up.
His gaze shifted back and forth between Tang Xin and Han Chuxue, completely ignoring Ye Chenfengâs existence.
In his mind, only he was worthy of beauties like Tang Xin and Han Chuxue!
To him, Ye Chenfeng was just a toad lusting after a swanâs flesh.
âTang Xin, since Jiang Shao has spoken, donât hesitate anymore.
Letâs catch up properly tonight,â Jia Yuan said, clutching Tang Xinâs arm.
Jiang Shaoqi was evidently the central figure in their little circle.
Faced with Jia Yuanâs repeated requests, Tang Xin truly felt embarrassed to refuse.
After all, they used to be very good friends.
When she was hesitating, Ye Chenfeng spoke up, âXinâer, itâs rare for you to reunite with your friends.
Letâs go have dinner.â
âTang Xin, look, your boyfriend has already said so, donât hesitate anymore.
I have so much to tell you after all these years!â Jia Yuan said.
âOkay, then, letâs go,â Tang Xin agreed. á´á´á´ á´á´á´ ę°Ęá´á´ Nová´lFir(e).ná´t
âLetâs go to Xiangya Hotel!
The dishes there arenât bad.
Do any of you have a car?â Jiang Shaoqi interjected.
Ye Chenfeng shrugged nonchalantly and said, âWeâll take a taxi there.â
Upon hearing Ye Chenfeng say they would take a taxi, a strong sense of disdain flashed in the eyes of the three menâJiang Shaoqi, Shi Ye, and Ding Wei.
Some pleasure surfaced on their faces as well.
They were already jealous of Ye Chenfeng for having two stunning beauties by his side!
Now that they knew Ye Chenfeng was broke, they were confident they could steal Tang Xin and Han Chuxue away.
In their eyes, there was nothing money couldnât solve in this world.
Didnât modern women all love tall, rich, and handsome guys?
They considered themselves to fit that mold perfectly.
Jia Yuan and Xia Jing originally had a good impression of Ye Chenfeng, as he was quite handsome.
However, when they heard Ye Chenfeng mention taking a taxi, their eyes shifted away from him.
They believed that in todayâs society, what was the use of a man being handsome?
Money was the most important.
âThereâs just enough space for two more people in my car.
How about the two beauties come with me?â Jiang Shaoqi said, completely overlooking Ye Chenfeng and wearing a very gentlemanly smile on his face.
âIâll take a taxi with Brother Chenfeng,â Tang Xin said, slightly furrowing her brows.
As for Han Chuxue, she outright ignored Jiang Shaoqi as if his words were a fart, not even giving him a glance from start to finish.
Seeing Tang Xin and Han Chuxue unhesitatingly follow Ye Chenfeng into the taxi, Jiang Shaoqi felt unbearably stifled and thought to himself, âThereâs never been a woman Jiang Shaoqi has failed to get!
Why does this poor kid get to have them both?
Just wait until we get to the hotel.
Iâll make you embarrassed, and then these two beauties will realize what kind of man is worth following.â
âJiang Shao, since this kid has no background, those two beauties are as good as ours.
Letâs have a five-person play later!â Shi Ye said excitedly.
âRight, Jiang Shao, Shi Ye is right!
These two women are top quality!â Ding Wei chimed in.
Jiang Shaoqi nodded and said, âAlright, once we get to Xiangya Hotel, Iâll let this kid realize the gap between us.
Heâll be the one to take off on his own.â
âWhat are you guys muttering about?
Should we go?â Jia Yuan asked Jiang Shaoqi and the other two.
âWhat are we waiting for?
Letâs get in the car!â Jiang Shaoqi said, swinging his arm in what he thought was a very dashing gesture.
In the taxi.
âXinâer, I could tell those three men were no good from the start.
You should advise your friend not to hang out with them,â Han Chuxue said, clearly feeling the way Jiang Shaoqi and his friends looked at her.
âJia Yuan wasnât like this before.
Maybe we shouldnât go after all!â Tang Xin said.
âXinâer, donât overthink things!
People always change.
Besides, weâre not the ones paying for the dinner.â
Ye Chenfeng casually threw out these words, once again earning a roll of the eyes from Han Chuxue.
Xiangya Hotel was located in a rather bustling area of Tianhai and was a mid-to-high-end establishment, not a place the working class could afford to patronize.
At the entrance of the Xiangya Hotel stood two uniformed greeters, both of average looks but with fiery figures that curved in all the right places, capable of effortlessly igniting the flame within a man.
As guests entered the hotel, the two voluptuous greeters respectfully greeted them with âWelcomeâ, their voices sweet and soothing, instantly putting the customers, most of whom were men, in a much better mood.
These two greeters must have been specially trained.
Jiang Shaoqi had reserved a private room, and after everyone sat down, he didnât rush to order food but instead looked at Ye Chenfeng and said, âBrother Ye, youâre really fortunate to be accompanied by two such beautiful ladies.
May I ask where youâre currently employed?â
âIâm an unemployed vagrant,â Ye Chenfeng replied nonchalantly.
Unemployed vagrant?
This revelation made Jiang Shaoqi, Shi Ye, and Ding Wei even more delighted, with Jiang Shaoqiâs tone becoming more arrogant, âBrother Ye, I suppose you donât often come to such high-end hotels, do you?
Today, just order whatever youâd like to eat, let yourself go.
Iâll cover all expenses, consider it a chance for Brother Ye to see the world.â
Jiang Shaoqi deliberately belittled Ye Chenfeng, believing that with his ability, he could ensure that Tang Xin and Han Chuxue would throw themselves at him by the end of the meal.
Jia Yuan walked over to Tang Xin, tugged at her sleeve, and said, âTang Xin, could you come out with me for a moment?â
Tang Xin was already annoyed by Jiang Shaoqiâs tone!
In her view, no one in this world had the right to mock her Brother Chenfeng.
However, seeing that Ye Chenfeng remained calm and composed, she decided to temporarily swallow her anger.
Standing up, she followed Jia Yuan out of the private room.
Once outside, Jia Yuan incessantly advised, âTang Xin, I think you and that Ye Chenfeng are not suitable for each other at all.
With your qualities, you can definitely find someone better.
I can tell Jiang Shaoqi seems interested in you, do you want me to set you up?
Jiang Shaoqiâs family is quite wealthy, theyâre millionaires!â
Tang Xin knew that her once best friend had truly changed, changed to the point where Tang Xin could hardly recognize her.
She decided that after tonightâs meal, she would no longer have any contact with Jia Yuan.
The place Ye Chenfeng held in her heart could not be shaken by anyone.
And as for money, whatâs so great about Jiang Shaoqi being a millionaire?
The villa where Tang Xin and the others lived probably was worth more than the entire assets of Jiang Shaoqiâs family!
Whatâs the value of being a millionaire in todayâs world?
âJia Yuan, donât say anything more!
Otherwise, we wonât even be friends,â Tang Xin said coldly as she turned and walked back into the private room, no longer paying any attention to Jia Yuan.
Jia Yuan didnât expect Tang Xin to turn against her so abruptly and thought dejectedly, âTang Xin, youâll regret this one day.
We women can only be worry-free for the rest of our lives if we follow rich men.â
Back in the private room, after Jiang Shaoqi had ordered the dishes, he looked at Ye Chenfeng with disdain and asked, âBrother Ye, what wine would you like to drink?â
In Jiang Shaoqiâs opinion, a low-class person like Ye Chenfeng probably could only afford to drink brands like Budweiser and Tsingtao beer!
Ordering such beer in a high-class place like Xiangya would be downright embarrassing.
Ye Chenfeng turned to the waiter standing by and said, âThen bring us ten jin of Lafite to start with!
Remember, it must be from â82, I donât drink any other year.â
Ten jin of Lafite?
Do you think weâre selling pork here?
Although the waiter also held Ye Chenfeng in contempt, he still patiently explained.
With some difficulty, the waiter said, âSir, Lafite is sold by the bottle, not by the jin.â
âThen just bring a case of â82 Lafite to start.
Weâll order more if itâs not enough,â Ye Chenfeng said casually.
A case of â82 Lafite?
One must know that a single bottle of â82 Lafite costs thirty to forty thousand!
A case would be several hundred thousand, wouldnât it?
Jiang Shaoqiâs family was at most millionaires, and even he himself was reluctant to order â82 Lafite!
And now he was going to let Ye Chenfeng, this âpoor kid,â order it, and he was going to pay for it?
Wasnât this just making a fool of himself?
His complexion turned quite ugly as he cursed inwardly, âThis poor kid, how does he even know about Lafite, and that â82 is the most expensive?â
âJiang Shaoqi, just let him order it.
At most, heâll drink a bottle by himself, which will be quite a feat.
Donât forget, your real goal today is to impress the two beauties.
You canât lose face now,â whispered Shi Ye who was sitting next to Jiang Shaoqi.
Grinding his teeth and stamping his foot, Jiang Shaoqi ordered the waiter, âDo as he says, bring us a case of â82 Lafite.â (To be continued.
