Chapter 723: You Can’t Even Complete Such a Small Task. Drag Her Out To Feed the Dogs
Lu Jingye still had that gentle and calm expression on his face. “Mr. Long has invited us for a meal and we have yet to start eating. As to whether your sincerity suffices or not, I can’t make an evaluation right now.”
Long Aotian narrowed his eyes at Lu Jingye’s words and started laughing out loud.
He made a gesture of acquiescence to Lu Jingye after he finished laughing. “Mr. Lu is right. Let’s talk slowly after we finish eating.”
Lu Jingye nodded. “Sure.”
Thus three of them stepped through the entrance together.
There was a porch upon entering and walking past the porch was the lobby.
There were already five to six individuals seated in the lobby and all of them were the bosses in the Bermuda Triangle.
The meal here was not one where everyone sat at the same table.
Instead, each guest had their own tables, and tables were placed on the left, right, and front. It was similar to banquets held by royalty in the imperial ancient times.
Long Aotian took Lu Jingye to a table below his table and stopped. “Mr. Lu, Mrs. Lu, please take a seat.”
The table was a low and long table and everyone sat cross-legged on the padded floor.
Lu Jingye led Zi Yi over and sat down.
Only Lu Jingye had brought along a female companion today and everyone would turn to look at Zi Yi both intentionally and unintentionally.
After the both of them sat down, the rest started greeting him warmly.
The boss of the Black Tiger Stockade spoke up first. “Mr. Lu, long time no see. Since everyone has gathered together today, we must have a few drinks later.”
Lu Jingye revealed an appropriate smile on his face. He neither rejected nor accepted the invite.
The boss of the Cang Ying Stockade stared at Zi Yi and the words he said seemed to contain a hidden meaning, “I heard that Mr. Lu dotes on his new wife very much. Now that I’ve had the honor of meeting her today, sure enough…”
Another person immediately completed his sentence. “If I had such a beautiful wife, I would also be like Mr. Lu and bring her around everywhere. Hahaha.”
Lu Jingye still had a smile on his face, but his eyes turned cold. He opened his mouth and said, “My wife is timid and I don’t deem it wise to leave her alone at home, so I brought her along. I hope that everyone doesn’t scare her.”
The bosses processed the information and at the same time, they were smiling deep down inside.
For him to dare to reveal how important that woman is to him, wasn’t he explicitly telling them to scheme against his woman?
Even though many of them mentioned they would not scare Mrs. Lu on the surface, all of them already started to have sinister plans deep down inside.
Long Aotian waited for everyone to finish their greetings and said, “Since my guests have all arrived, let’s start the meal.”
Having said that, he clapped his hands toward the door.
In the next second, crisp ringing bells were heard.
Subsequently, they saw a group of women dressed in clothes made of tulle, with veils covering their faces, walking in with the dishes in their hands.
The people here had seen all sorts of beautiful women before, so when they saw a group of women who would usually arouse normal men, they did not even spare them a glance.
Even if those women deliberately tried seducing them with their bodies as they served the dishes on the table, the bosses merely remained still as those women touched them.
When a few of the women came over to Lu Jingye’s table with the dishes in their hands, they were all attracted by his appearance and wanted to take advantage by touching him. However, Zi Yi who was seated next to Lu Jingye took out a silver needle.
Seeing that the woman wanted to touch the back of Lu Jingye’s hand, she moved. In the next second, she cried out in pain. “Ouch!”
Long Aotian seemed to have been blind just moments ago and he only looked over after hearing the cry. He said crossly, “What happened?”
The woman said coyly, “Boss Long, I accidentally spilled soup on my hand just now.”
Zi Yi snorted.
Long Aotian’s expression turned stern and he immediately shouted, “You can’t even complete such a small task! Drag her away and feed her to the dogs.”
The woman was instantly frightened and her expression changed greatly. Her legs went soft and she fell to the ground. “Boss Long, I didn’t mean to. Please spare me this time.”
Long Aotian remained unmoved. His eyes were looking at the silver needle in Zi Yi’s hand and he suddenly said, “You’ve angered Mrs. Lu. If you can appease her, I’ll let you go.”
The moment she heard Long Aotian’s words, she quickly scrambled over to Zi Yi’s side.
However, Lu Jingye’s cold voice sounded just then. “I’ve said before that my wife is timid. Is Mr. Long trying to frighten her on purpose?”
As soon as Lu Jingye said that, he pulled Zi Yi into his arms and covered her face by resting it against his chest.
Long Aotian revealed an apologetic expression. “Ugh, look at this memory of mine. Men, drag her out and feed her to the dogs.”
“Ah… Boss Long please spare me. I really didn’t mean to. Mrs. Lu, please plead on my behalf, I don’t want to die.”
Two thugs soon came in and dragged the woman towards the door.
The woman begged Zi Yi to save her while she was being dragged outside.
A sneer curved up on Zi Yi’s lips.
Wasn’t Long Aotian trying to test her by deliberately putting on this show? In that case, she’ll play with him.
Zi Yi looked up from Lu Jingye’s embrace and said fearfully, “Ah Jing, will they really kill that woman? I’m scared, what if they kill me too?”
Before Lu Jingye could speak, Long Aotian seated above them said, “Mrs. Lu is fond of joking. You’re an esteemed guest of mine and so who would dare to do anything to you on my turf?”
Zi Yi did not bother looking at Long Aotian and continued her act. “Would Mr. Long kill me too out of a fit of anger?”
Lu Jingye raised his hand and caressed her head. His voice sounded very calm, but his body exuded a chilly and overbearing aura. “If he dares to touch a single strand of your hair, I’ll destroy this stockade.”
Long Aotian’s expression changed several times listening to his words.
Deep down, he was thinking,?“Since you’ve said that, let’s see if you can destroy my stockade then!”
On the surface he guaranteed to Lu Jingye. “Mr. Lu is really fond of joking. I invited you here today because I sincerely want to befriend you.”
He then raised the bowl of alcohol and said, “To show my sincerity and apologize for scaring Mrs. Lu earlier, I’ll punish myself with three bowls.”
Sure enough, he drank three bowls of alcohol.
The other bosses immediately applauded him.
On the surface, everyone was trying to speak up for Long Aotian in a friendly manner.
“Since Boss Long has expressed his sincerity, Mr. Lu shouldn’t be calculative with Boss Long. After all, that woman has been dragged out and fed to the dogs.”
“That’s right. Everyone’s here to have a drink today. Let’s not break the harmonious atmosphere due to an insignificant thing.”
…
Everyone was persuading ?Lu Jingye on the surface, but deep down, they were wishing for Lu Jingye and Long Aotian to fight right away.
Zi Yi looked at everyone’s expressions and went back to fully sitting in her seat.
After the ‘unpleasant’ situation, Long Aotian called his men and got them to change all the servers to men. Subsequently, the atmosphere was slightly better.
Long Aotian raised his bowl and said to everyone, “I invited everyone here to have a drink today. Come, let’s have a toast.”
The bosses all raised their bowls.
Lu Jingye had also done so. Only Zi Yi remained unmoved.
One of the bosses seated in front of them asked, “Why isn’t Mrs. Lu drinking?”
Lu Jingye said without a change in expression, “My wife can’t drink.”
Long Aotian immediately said, “My bad, my bad. Men, come serve juice for Mrs. Lu.”
