Chapter Summary
The discussions around them grew louder and louder, all saying that Lie Lei was a country bumpkin who thought money was everything in this place. Lie Lei really wanted to go over and teach them a lesson, but he still had his wits about him. In the eyes of ordinary people, a General-level powerhouse was already very formidable, but in the eyes of true high society, such a powerhouse was really nothing.
The discussions around them grew louder and louder, all saying that Lie Lei was a country bumpkin who thought money was everything in this place. If that were true, then his money wouldn't be nearly enough. Did he really think that none of them had money?
Lie Lei really wanted to go over and teach them a lesson, but he still had his wits about him. If someone eating in a place like this was a martial artist, then he could certainly teach them a lesson. But if they were just ordinary people, it meant their family background was very strong, so acting out here would be very unwise. To put it bluntly, this guy was a bully who picked on the weak and feared the strong.
In the eyes of ordinary people, a General-level powerhouse was already very formidable, but in the eyes of true high society, such a powerhouse was really nothing. Don't look at these people as just ordinary; if they had good connections, they could easily take down Lie Lei. Lie Lei didn't understand this before, but after suffering a loss, he understood that he absolutely couldn't get into conflict with these people. So, this guy was like a turtle, preparing to endure today's events.
Lie Lei could endure it, but Wang Fang couldn't. She slapped the table and was about to stand up.
Lie Lei actually had the same idea. He would act magnanimously and let Wang Fang handle the matter. After all, Wang Fang was the heir of the Wang family, and these people were no match for her. As long as Wang Fang wanted to deal with them, they would only suffer losses.
"Sit down, sit down. Have you seen clearly where this is? If your grandfather knew you were causing trouble here, he'd scold you to death!"
Liu Ning had long seen through Lie Lei's little scheme, so he immediately stopped Wang Fang. What a joke! You want to use someone as a gun, but you have to see if I agree.
"Can we eat or not? Mind your own business with that mouth of yours. Don't come here blabbering when you're full. I don't want to bother with you guys, but are you going to keep pushing your luck? All of you, lower your heads and eat your food. Stop talking nonsense here. We paid the money, so what? What business is it of yours?"
Although Liu Ning didn't get into a fight, his voice was loud enough for half the restaurant to hear. These people glanced at Liu Ning and, instead, dared not speak.
Wang Fang also felt a little relieved. This was what a responsible person was like. When something happened, Lie Lei would shrink back, and Wang Fang was a bit dissatisfied with him. What was there to be afraid of? Couldn't he even say a word? Wang Fang remembered similar incidents where Lie Lei always advised her to prioritize the bigger picture, but why wasn't Liu Ning afraid? He wouldn't let a girl step forward.
The reason these people around them didn't speak was because they felt Liu Ning was not simple. Someone who dared to speak so loudly in this place, could they be an ordinary person? Although they had some connections in the city, they didn't dare to do this. Someone recognized Wang Fang; she was the granddaughter of the Garrison Commander. People of that level were not to be provoked, so they all obediently lowered their heads and ate.
"Thank you, Master Liu..."
Lie Lei, beside him, was grinding his teeth in anger, as Liu Ning had found an opportunity to show off. But Wang Fang didn't care about that; she happily poured tea for Liu Ning. Those people just now were truly infuriating.
"You don't understand anything. Don't you know how powerful these people are? If a conflict really broke out, it wouldn't be a joke. I just didn't want to bother with them and affect our meal. Otherwise, I would have knocked their teeth out long ago..."
If Lie Lei had a title now, it would definitely be 'General of Hindsight.' Someone else had already resolved the matter, and here you are saying this. What's the point?
Liu Ning naturally remained silent. Wang Fang's eyes next to him had already dimmed. Her originally perfect boyfriend, why was everything he did today wrong? What was the use of being powerful now? When others were talking about you just now, you didn't even dare to say a word.
Liu Ning was also speechless. A dignified General-level powerhouse with such small guts, no wonder Old Master Wang was unwilling. Looking at it this way, there were too many shortcomings.
They didn't bring up the matter again for now. Although there was no black fish left in the restaurant, they couldn't just go to another place to eat; it would be too much hassle to keep changing. Liu Ning was looking at the menu, wondering if there was anything else delicious.
For Liu Ning, as long as he could eat his fill, there wasn't much to pick at.
"Oh my goodness, it really is Mr. Liu! I can't believe I ran into you here. I am truly fortunate! Mr. Liu, why didn't you arrange something in advance when you came to eat here? What are you standing around for? Immediately call the manager over! Does he not want to work anymore? How can he let Mr. Liu eat here? Immediately open Room 1 for me."
Liu Ning had just turned a page when he immediately saw a few people approaching. These people also seemed to be here to eat. They glanced over from the stairs and then quickly rushed over. Liu Ning recognized this guy; he had a slight impression, as if he was someone under Miss Bai. From what he said, could this place be a property of the Bai family?
This was indeed a property of the Bai family. Although the Bai family mainly operated in the pharmaceutical industry, it was still a diversified group with some of their restaurants and hotels everywhere, and this was the best one.
The lobby manager came over trembling, getting a severe scolding from this guy. The people eating around them all breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they didn't go against Liu Ning just now. If they had, they might have been asked to leave. The lobby managers here were all very influential, and no one dared to cause trouble in this place. The lobby manager was usually full of swagger, but now he was being scolded like a subservient grandson, which showed Liu Ning's status.
Moreover, that guy just now said he wanted to open Private Room 1 upstairs. Was Private Room 1 something ordinary people could use? It was said that only high-ranking officials from the Garrison Command had the face to use it, or the patriarchs of the major families. Other people, even if they had money, probably wouldn't have that room opened for them. This was class.
"What's wrong with you? Don't you see people eating here? Is this a place for you to scold people? If you want to discipline your subordinates, go do it in the back. I'm still eating here!"
Liu Ning said unhappily. This guy was ranting and raving here, and he didn't even feel like looking at the menu anymore. The people around him gasped again. This person was giving him so much face, but this lord still didn't seem to care?
