Originally, Yang Ming thought that Zhou Jiajia wanted to retaliate and say some bad things about him in front of Chen Mengyan. But later, Yang Ming also felt that this possibility was very slim – unless Zhou Jiajia wanted to be beaten up again.
Now, after listening to Zhou Jiajia’s words, Yang Ming had some doubts instead. What did this chick want to do? Looking at her, she seemed to be consciously adjusting to Chen Mengyan so that two of them could become good friends!
This was what Yang Ming didn’t want to see. He was already very sensitive to Zhou Jiajia, this chick, and hoping that she wouldn’t come here to mess up his life again. But the situation now was that Zhou Jiajia was making a good effort to mix with him for whatever reason!
If Zhou Jiajia said that she liked him, Yang Ming wouldn’t believe it even if he was going to be killed! Both of them had not seen each other for several years already. It was impossible to have any feelings. Besides, the only interaction between Zhou Jiajia and him was over the case of Su Ya in junior high school.
However, I got someone to beat up Zhou Jiajia. Could it be that because of this beating that Zhou Jiajia’s feelings got beaten out? Could it be that she was the legendary sadomasochist enthusiast? Yang Ming thought devilishly. If this was the case, it would be good to add her into the harem!
However, Yang Ming was just thinking about it. He wouldn’t be stupid enough to think that Zhou Jiajia had such tendencies.
Ever since the university began, Zhou Jiajia and I had rarely spoken to one another. If Zhou Jiajia liked me only after we were in university, then it was even more impossible! Therefore, Yang Ming had reason to believe that Zhou Jiajia had ulterior motives! Yang Ming just hadn’t understood Zhou Jiajia’s motives.
According to her current practice, it was purely a matter of endlessly pestering Yang Ming. There was no harm to Yang Ming.
Zhang Bing had made the reservations at the restaurant. It was a large-scale hot pot chain store. It was a good choice for eating steaming hot pots during winter. Especially when there were many people, it would be more cost-effective to eat hot pot.
Zhang Bing was leading the way in front and he parked his car in the only empty space in the parking lot. When Yang Ming arrived, the parking lot had no more spots. Who made today Christmas Eve? There were too many people eating out!
Yang Ming had no choice. He didn’t care about anything else. He stopped the car directly in front of the steps facing the entrance of the hot pot restaurant! Parking wasn’t allowed there according to the law, but Yang Ming saw another car who parked this way by the side, so he followed it.
However, just after he stopped the car, the security guard at the entrance of the hot pot restaurant came over. He felt dizzy looking at Yang Ming’s broken car. Damn, if you were driving either a Mercedes-Benz, BMW, or Porsche, it would be fine for you to park at the entrance. Or even the Camry by your side, at least it was still a luxury car! What’s your broken Jetta car stopping here for? The paint was already faded, and even the car body had traces of spray paint. The engine was louder than a tractor!
Isn’t this violating the beauty of the city? Therefore, the security guard came over and knocked on Yang Ming’s car’s window and said, “The restaurant doesn’t allow parking at the entrance. Find some other spot!”
Yang Ming was stunned, but then he asked slightly annoyed, “Didn’t the car on the side stop here too?”
“On the side… the car on the side…” The security guard mumbled, “You car is too broken. It will affect the beauty of the restaurant entrance!”
When Yang Ming heard it, he became angry immediately. “What beauty? I came here to eat. How is that related to the car I drive? Even if you drive a Bentley over here, so what if you can’t eat more than others?”
The security guard saw Yang Ming insisting over here and got impatient. “No parking is allowed here anyway. So go away. Don’t eat at our restaurant!” Anyway, the security guard thought to himself, I’m right anyway. There are regulations. The rules are written as such!
“Pak!” As the security guard finished his sentence, he felt a heavy blow to his face. He was beaten to the point where he wouldn’t be able to find North.
Yang Ming was annoyed. He was here to eat. I’m a customer. The customer is king; do you actually want to shoo me away? So what if I f*cking drive a Jetta? Even if it’s a broken car, and it doesn’t look as good, but you shouldn’t discriminate against me based on this.
Seeing the quarrel here, the security captain also rushed over immediately. When he saw Yang Ming’s broken Jetta car, he was shocked!
The little security guard didn’t know but he couldn’t possibly not know! The security captain was an underling of Bao Sanli. This car belonged to the Deputy Master, Hou Zhenhan. He was very clear about this!
Therefore, he didn’t need to ask anything about this matter. Who cares about who’s right and who’s wrong? Listening to the boss is always right! The security captain also refused to allow the little security guard to complain and left him crying by the side. He rounded his arm and slapped the other side of the little security guard’s face right away. It was another shocking cry of the ghosts and gods [1]. After being struck from both the left and the right, he got a free round of fat-boosting treatment!
“Sorry. This security guard is new. He isn’t sensible enough yet. Please come in!” The security captain turned around and flattered the three of them including Yang Ming.
Although I don’t know what the relationship between the three of them and Hou Zhenhan is, they are definitely related! Otherwise, it would be impossible to drive Hou Zhenhan’s car out! Why didn’t he consider that this car might be stolen? The reason was very simple. Firstly, this car wasn’t worth stealing at all. It couldn’t even sell for much! Secondly, who dared to steal it? Even if it was stolen, Hou Zhenhan just had to drop an order, and the whole city would be looking for the car!
Although Yang Ming didn’t know why the security captain had such a good attitude, he nodded and said, “This car belongs to my friend. Help me look after it and make sure others don’t scratch it.”
The security captain said in his heart, This car, who would want to scratch it? Most of the paint had already faded. However, because it was Hou Zhenhan’s car, even if Yang Ming didn’t say it, he would take care of it with all his heart and soul!
Therefore, there was a very strange phenomenon at the entrance of the Hot Pot City. The security captain personally stood guard at the front of a broken Jetta.
“Yang Ming, why did you use violence again?” Chen Mengyan didn’t get very angry this time. After all, the security guard’s words were really irritating.
“Hehe, I thought it was alright. This kind of person deserves a lesson!” Zhou Jiajia said with a smile, “Mengyan, you heard his tone too. He felt as if he was superior!”
“Yeah… But even though the security captain was very reasonable, his practice was also a bit violent…” Chen Mengyan nodded and agreed with Zhou Jiajia.
Yang Ming shook his head. Even though this Zhou Jiajia followed them, there were some benefits of her doing so. She could actually settle Chen Mengyan, this vinegar jar [2], easily which, in return, helps me to solve a lot of problems.
Originally, Zhang Bing and Yang Ming were both driving, so the both of them agreed not to drink. However, they couldn’t stand against the encouragement of Tian Donghua. Afterward, they felt that Huahai Cinema wasn’t too far from the venue anyway. Therefore, they decided to leave their cars here after drinking, and come back to get it tomorrow.
So, the three of them started ordering six bottles of beer and drinking along with them. What Yang Ming didn’t expect was that Zhou Jiajia had become very easygoing, and she wasn’t much like her rigid self during junior high school. At least, Yang Ming thought that she was very rigid.
If Zhou Jiajia heard Yang Ming’s evaluation of herself, she would definitely scream for injustice! How was she rigid in those days? She was just a little stupid. She naively thought that once Yang Ming and Su Ya were separated, Yang Ming would like her!
Since all of them came out to relax, the four girls also asked for a bottle of red wine. Chen Mengyan’s drinking capacity was obviously not good. After a cup of this low-grade fruit wine, her little face became red right away.
Zhao Sisi was obviously fine. She could drink the most among the girls here which made Zhang Bing very proud! To do business, a woman must also be able to drink!
The security captain had long asked about the location of the room where Yang Ming was located. He quickly went to the lobby manager to instruct him to send a few fruit plates and a few hot pot dishes over.
Yang Ming and the rest thought that the service of the hot pot restaurant was great. They were praising how the quality and pricing was good, and that they would come here to eat again the next time!
The meal had taken about two hours. They took a look at the time. It was almost eight o’clock. The movie would start at about eight thirty, so it was about time for them to leave. So, Yang Ming’s group of people got up, settled the bill and left the private room.
Even though Yang Ming, Zhang Bing, and Tian Donghua drank a lot of wine, they were only a little tipsy and didn’t affect their movements at all. Once they got out of the restaurant, Yang Ming saw the security captain standing next to his car. He walked over and patted his shoulder, “Bro, I’m going to watch a movie. I’ll leave my car to you here first. Are you okay to take care of it for me?”
“No problem!” The security captain immediately nodded after listening, “Go ahead! You have me here!”
Yang Ming was a little surprised. Why is this security captain so enthusiastic? However, if he thought about it, it was probably the owner of the restaurant who had good management! How would he know that Hou Zhenhan was also a factor?
Huahai Cinema was just a stop away from here. If they walked, it would be slightly more than ten minutes. They took it as a sobering exercise. Besides, it was bustling now on the street and it was not boring either.
