Chapter 190: Chapter 190: I'm Not Interested

Accompanied by the exclamations of several women, the restaurant manager and several waiters noticed the situation and hurried over.

Seeing that Rose had almost finished eating, Yang Chen took out a few red bills and threw them on the table, asking Rose, "Ready to go?" Rose had already guessed that Yang Chen wanted to deal with this ignorant guy, but she didn't expect it to be so direct. Since she was almost full now, she nodded gracefully and got up to leave with Yang Chen. As for the guy who had delivered the wine and was lying on the ground, Rose couldn't care less about him.

The restaurant manager saw Yang Chen pulling the woman who caused the trouble and was about to leave directly, so he immediately stopped in front of Yang Chen and said nervously, "Sir, you knocked out other customers. How can you just leave like this?!"

Yang Chen smiled and said, "I'm leaving after finishing my meal, not running away without paying. As for knocking him out, that's his business. What's it to you?"

"This is the responsibility of our restaurant. We have an obligation to protect our customers."

"Then am I not your customer?" Yang Chen asked.

"Yes," the restaurant manager replied.

Yang Chen continued, "Then why are you stopping me? If you want to protect him, you should also protect me. Why do you care so much about what happens between him and me?"

The manager's logic was a bit confused. He hurriedly said, "But we must inform the police!"

"Fine, you can inform the police, but we'll leave. You have no authority to detain us." With that, Yang Chen raised his foot to leave.

The manager stepped back two steps but still had a few waiters blocking their way. He said, "Sir, I can't explain to the victimized customer if you leave. Please stay here!"

Yang Chen became impatient, closed his eyes, and then opened them again. The manager was staring at him. Suddenly, as if a wave of fierce and gloomy fear surged into his heart, Yang Chen's seemingly ordinary gaze was like a steel knife piercing through his soul, almost making the manager's legs buckle and bend.

"Can we go now?"

"Y-yes," the restaurant manager said, sweating coldly, shrinking to the side.

As Yang Chen and Rose walked out, the manager's strength seemed to drain away completely, and he collapsed to the ground.

At this moment, Jiang Wen, who had just regained consciousness from his fainting, groaned in pain.

As they walked out of the restaurant, the moon was already high in the sky, and the autumn wind blew chilly. There were already many people walking by the lake, and the willows on the bank had shed their delicate leaves, but the red maples were in full bloom, shining brightly under the glow of the street lamps.

Rose stretched lazily, walking ahead and backwards with slow steps, smiling as she said, "Honey, you don't really need to scare them like that. The restaurant manager is quite pitiful."

Yang Chen chuckled, "I'm doing it for his own good. If I just leave like that, it'll be seen as a personal grudge between us and that guy surnamed Jiang. It would definitely affect other people and the business of his restaurant."

"You have a point. I just hope that annoying guy hasn't woken up yet. It'd be best if he turned into a vegetable," Rose said bluntly.

The impression that Jiang Wen left on Rose was utterly terrible, largely due to his mockery of the man she loved right in front of her.

After strolling by the lake for a while, they returned to the parking lot, got in their car, and left the dining area.

The road back was quiet because the suburban roads were spacious, yet not many people frequented them, so the traffic was unusually smooth. However, as they approached the entrance to the highway, Yang Chen suddenly noticed that there were seven or eight black cars lined up in a row on the road ahead, all facing their direction.

Yang Chen had to stop the car, but at the same time, all eight cars in front turned on their high beams!

Moreover, they were all equipped with sixteen modified xenon headlights!

The bright lights made it difficult for people to keep their eyes open. The cars behind Yang Chen also had to slow down and stop because they were blocked from getting onto the highway.

Yang Chen glanced at Rose sitting beside him. Her expression didn't look good, clearly she had guessed that Jiang Wen was behind this.

"Honey, you should have hit him in the temple," Rose said angrily.

Yang Chen smiled wryly. This lady was really angry. Today was supposed to be their first intimate outdoor date, and Rose was so happy and in such a good mood. But then they encountered this ignorant guy who just couldn't stop running his mouth. Not only did he ruin her mood, but he also kept on causing trouble!

At this moment, in the bright light, a dozen or so figures walked over.

Under the white light, it was clear to see that the man walking at the front, with white bandages wrapped around his head and a pale and ferocious face, was the same Jiang Wen who had been lying on the floor earlier.

Beside him was a middle-aged man with extremely short hair, a garlic-shaped nose, and a silver necklace hanging around his neck. He wore a floral shirt under a black suit and walked alongside Jiang Wen with a calm demeanor.

Jiang Wen pointed to the azure Lotus sports car and said to the middle-aged man, "Brother Hao, it's this car with a man and a woman inside. The woman is disrespectful, and the man beat me up like this!"

The middle-aged man addressed as Brother Hao waved his hand, and a henchman behind him immediately rushed forward, holding a steel pipe in his hand, ready to smash the car by force.

Since the car's windows were specially treated and the inside couldn't be clearly seen from the outside, they decided to act forcefully when they saw nobody getting out of the car.

Naturally, Yang Chen wouldn't just wait to have his car smashed. He opened the door and stepped out, addressing the henchman who was charging towards him aggressively, "Hey, hold on. What are you smashing? Can you afford to pay for it if you do?"

The henchman stopped in his tracks and turned to look back at his boss.

"Brother Hao, it's this guy! He's the one who beat me up!" Jiang Wen grabbed Brother Hao's arm, seething with rage.

Brother Hao smirked at Jiang Wen. "Young Master Jiang, we agreed that once this job is done, you owe me one million. Don't worry, as long as you help me deal with him and get that woman, one million is nothing!"

Jiang Wen's eyes lit up with excitement. "But Brother Hao, make sure I don't get into trouble later!"

Brother Hao laughed heartily and patted Jiang Wen's shoulder. "Good brother, I'll take care of everything for you. When have I ever let you down? As long as the money is delivered, everything is negotiable."

With that, Brother Hao turned his gaze to Yang Chen, looking him over with interest. "Young man, is this your car?"

Yang Chen shook his head and replied truthfully, "It belongs to my woman."

Brother Hao seemed to understand. "So, you're in the business of being a gigolo. Not bad, you can hook up with a rich woman with that look. But since this incident happened today, I, Ah Hao, have to give an explanation to Young Master Jiang here. It's suffocating to stay cooped up in the car, isn't it?"

"This guy surnamed Jiang is offering you one million to do something for him. Why don't you ask if we'll offer you money to get rid of him?" Yang Chen asked calmly.

Brother Hao's eyes lit up. "I like your suggestion. If you can offer me an enticing price, maybe I'll change my plans."

Now Jiang Wen panicked. He immediately shouted, "Brother Hao! You can't do this! We've worked together so many times, how can you help an outsider against me?"

Brother Hao looked at Jiang Wen coldly. "Young Master Jiang, we do business for money, not for your personal interests. If you offer more money than they do, then we're brothers."

Jiang Wen's face alternated between red and white, clearly furious but unable to express his grievances. He cursed silently, feeling deeply wronged.

"So, young man, how much can you offer? If the price isn't high enough, I won't change my plans," Brother Hao said eagerly.

Yang Chen thought for a moment, then raised a middle finger to Brother Hao, saying, "Here's my offer."

Brother Hao frowned. "A middle finger, plus ten thousand?"

Yang Chen shook his head with a smile.

"Ten thousand is definitely too little. How about a hundred thousand?" Brother Hao asked again.

Yang Chen still shook his head.

"You're offering one million, so are you offering two million?!" Brother Hao exclaimed joyfully.

Yang Chen felt helpless and sighed somewhat sadly. "Have you lost your mind or something? Can't you see that I'm flipping you off in contempt?"

Brother Hao was almost infuriated, his face turning purple. If he didn't have short hair, he might have been steaming by now.

"You're cursing at me, are you playing with me?!" Brother Hao roared furiously.

Yang Chen waved his hand dismissively. "Forget it, I'm not interested in playing with men."

Finally unable to bear it, Brother Hao grinned savagely. "I'm not interested in wasting more time with you either. Since the woman in your car refuses to come out, I'll do you the favor of bringing her out myself today! I'll show you what a real man is right in front of this gigolo!"

With that, Brother Hao strode confidently to the passenger side door and yanked it open!
