Chapter 30: Come Here to Me

Dong Ruolin felt a bit surprised.

She didn’t expect that Xiao Hailong actually had some connections in Jinling; compared to Ye Chen, he was indeed much stronger.

It seemed that if she got closer to him in Jinling in the future, daily activities would be much more convenient.

The man in black respectfully led everyone to the entrance of the diamond private room.

Then, he took out a form and directly handed it to Ye Chen, softly saying, “Sir, please sign here.”

This diamond private room was specifically reserved for Ye Chen, requiring his signature for confirmation.

Ye Chen smiled as he took the pen and paper, just about to write his name when Xiao Hailong’s voice suddenly rang out.

“Damn it, put the pen down!”

Xiao Hailong approached with a stern face, snatching the pen and paper from Ye Chen’s hand, quickly signing his name, and scolded Ye Chen, “Do you have no shame? Don’t you know who reserved this room? What right do you have to sign here!”

The man in black was momentarily stunned, looking at Ye Chen with a questioning gaze, as if asking whether he should step in and teach this bastard a lesson.

Ye Chen calmly replied, “It’s fine, if he wants to sign, let him sign.”

In front of Dong Ruolin, Ye Chen didn’t want to make things too awkward, especially since she was his wife’s close friend.

Soon, everyone settled down in the private room.

Xiao Hailong arranged for Dong Ruolin to sit in the main seat, while Ye Chen sat alone in a corner, with only Dong Ruolin occasionally speaking to him.

Before long, exquisite dishes and fine wines were presented by the waitstaff.

All the dishes were made with extremely high-quality ingredients; top-grade abalone and ten-pound Australian lobsters were merely side dishes here.

Even the wine was a century-old national liquor, with just half a bottle selling for over a hundred thousand.

Dong Ruolin, being well-versed in luxury, was also shocked by the extravagance of this meal.

Wang Yunfei exclaimed, “Hailong, how much is this meal worth?”

Xiao Hailong proudly replied, “This meal is worth three hundred thousand.”

Wang Yunfei was astonished, “This is definitely not just three hundred thousand; just these few bottles of wine alone are worth more than that.”

Xiao Hailong felt a sudden unease, recalling the attitude of the man in black earlier. Could it be that Master Hong had given him some special treatment?

But he didn’t even know him!

Dong Ruolin’s beautiful eyes sparkled as she looked at Xiao Hailong with admiration, saying, “Hailong, thank you!”

Hearing Dong Ruolin’s words, Xiao Hailong beamed and said, “You’re too kind; it’s what I should do.”

As he spoke, Xiao Hailong smiled and asked Ye Chen, “Ye Chen, you must have never eaten such good food in your life, right?”

Ye Chen sneered, “Who gave you that confidence?”

Xiao Hailong scoffed, “You ate my food, and your mouth is still so tough! If you had the chance to eat such good food before, I would have twisted my head off and kicked it like a ball for you!”

Ye Chen smiled indifferently; the life he lived as a child was a level of luxury that ordinary people couldn’t even imagine. A meal like this was merely the food of servants in the Ye family.

Xiao Weiwei, seeing Ye Chen refuse to back down, angrily said, “Ye Chen, what attitude is that when talking to my brother? Do you believe I can throw you out right now? You get a free meal, and you still act so ungrateful! You’re such a pathetic loser!”

However, at that moment!

The door to the private room was kicked open forcefully, and a fierce voice rang out, “Where the hell did you idiots come from? Who the hell let you into this private room!”

As soon as the words were spoken, a man dressed in an Armani suit, wearing a large gold chain, and sporting a scar that looked like a centipede stretching from his eye to his chin, entered.

This man held a form in one hand and a stick in the other, his face full of menace!

Following him were a dozen burly men with tattoos and scars, forming a line and surrounding everyone.

Everyone was stunned, filled with panic. What was going on?

The leader was called Biao Ge, Master Hong’s right-hand man, who had fought alongside him in the past and was well-known in Jinling.

This time, Master Hong had instructed him that a very distinguished Mr. Ye was to use the diamond private room, and he had to ensure everything was arranged properly.

But unexpectedly, when checking the usage of the private room, he found that it had been signed for by a loser named Xiao Hailong, which made him both angry and fearful.

He was angry that this damned Xiao Hailong had taken the private room meant for his esteemed guest;

He was fearful that the top banquet in the diamond private room only had one table, and if the real guest arrived, it would be gone. What should he do?

At this moment, Xiao Hailong stood up and said, “What are you doing? This private room was reserved by me; why are you barging in here causing trouble?”

Biao Ge pointed at Xiao Hailong and questioned, “Are you Xiao Hailong?”

Xiao Hailong nodded, proudly saying, “That’s me!”

Biao Ge coldly said, “Bring him over here!”

Two burly men immediately grabbed Xiao Hailong and dragged him over.

“What are you doing? Let go of me!”

“Shut up, you piece of trash!”

One of the burly men kicked him in the knee, causing Xiao Hailong to cry out in pain and kneel before Biao Ge.

Biao Ge’s cold gaze swept over Xiao Hailong, making him feel as if he were being sliced by a knife.

Smack!

The signed form was thrown onto Xiao Hailong’s head.

Biao Ge scolded, “Who gave you the right to use this private room?”

Xiao Hailong forced himself to remain calm, saying, “It’s a misunderstanding; this golden private room was reserved by me in advance, and I paid a deposit of three hundred thousand!”

Wang Yunfei interjected, “What are you doing? This private room was reserved by Hailong; do you have any sense of propriety?”

Biao Ge spat and slapped Xiao Hailong, saying, “Golden private room? This is a diamond private room meant for esteemed guests! You trash have the right to use it?!”

At this, everyone was stunned.

Diamond private room?

No wonder this room was so extravagantly luxurious, with dishes and wines of the highest quality; it turned out it wasn’t a golden private room at all!

Wang Yunfei broke out in a cold sweat; how prestigious was the diamond private room? People like them had no right to enter, let alone use it.

Xiao Weiwei quickly said, “Brother, don’t you know Master Hong? Hurry and explain this to them!”

Xiao Hailong lamented, “Shut up, what nonsense are you talking? With my status, how could I possibly know Master Hong?”

Xiao Weiwei said, “But didn’t you just say…”

Dong Ruolin watched the siblings’ performance and realized that Xiao Hailong’s earlier words were all just boasting.

She felt a bit disappointed.

At this moment, Biao Ge sneered, “You dare to wave Master Hong’s banner? You must be tired of living!”

As he spoke, Biao Ge stood up and ordered his subordinates, “Hold this kid’s hands! I want to teach him a good lesson.”

Xiao Hailong was immediately restrained, unable to move!

The next second!

Biao Ge swung the stick down without hesitation!

“Ah… my hand, my hand is ruined!”

Xiao Hailong screamed in agony, drenched in cold sweat, and even felt a shameful warmth in his pants as he fainted from the pain.

Seeing this, Wang Yunfei and Xiao Weiwei turned pale, trembling in fear.

Just moments ago, Xiao Hailong had been full of bravado, but now he was instantly reduced to his true self. Who wouldn’t be afraid?

Dong Ruolin was also terrified, trembling and hiding behind Ye Chen, fearfully saying, “What should we do? They won’t kill someone, will they?”

Ye Chen patted Dong Ruolin’s shoulder, reassuring her, “Don’t be afraid; as long as I’m here, no one will harm you.”

Dong Ruolin looked at Ye Chen gratefully; although she knew he couldn’t solve such trouble, his words still made her feel a bit more at ease.

Meanwhile, Biao Ge kicked the unconscious Xiao Hailong and cursed, “What a coward!”

Biao Ge then turned to Wang Yunfei.

“And you, weren’t you the one saying I had no sense of propriety? Come here, you bastard!”
