Chapter 1189: 819 Second Update (Vote for monthly tickets!)
Young Master Ye does things in his own unique way.
While he treated us to a meal, he didn’t make a fuss about the setting. The venue he chose was an old Hong Kong-style tea restaurant in Central with interior design that harkened back to Hong Kong’s retro style last century.
Just like some people, who need luxury brands to flaunt their status.
But Young Prince Ye surpassed that level from the moment he was born.
This time, Jiang Chen came even more casually than the last banquet, only bringing Pei Yunxi, whom he was specifically asked to bring, not even Annabelle.
Since she would soon leave Gangcheng, Yang Ni went to see her child.
"Miss Pei, long time no see, that movie you shot, I had all my friends go see it. One word, perfect!"
Contact still looking splendid, Young Prince Ye gave the barefaced Pei Yunxi a thumbs up.
It’s just that ’perfect’ seems like two words.
"Thanks for the support, Young Master Ye."
Pei Yunxi, not bearing any grudges, politely thanked him.
In fact, although she was forcefully kept in Guangdong last time, from start to finish, the other party was polite to her without any transgressions.
"Ah, you shouldn’t be the one saying this."
Ye Tingxuan spoke with a playful tone.
Jiang Chen caught the implication and responded with a laugh, "Thanks for the support, Young Master Ye. Without your strong support, ’That Patch of Blue’ could never have achieved its current success."
These words.
Without some cheekiness, one might find it hard to give even flattery.
Luckily, none of them were "shy" people.
Ye Tingxuan was highly pleased, grinning from ear to ear, "No need to be polite, what’s our relationship? It was my duty. Brother Jiang, there are not many people I admire, but you are one of them. Films like this are what movies should be. You make money, and I’m not the least bit jealous, really."
Jiang Chen couldn’t help but laugh as well, "Young Master Ye could hardly care about something as vulgar as money."
Pei Yunxi listened to their mutual adulation.
"You can’t quite say it that way. How does that saying go? ’Heroes need courage, and courage is money.’ Money may be vulgar, but without it, you are truly at a loss. For instance, at today’s meal, we still have to pay the bill, right? Unless we intend to dine and dash?"
A pair of young men, seemingly friends made from conflict, bantered and laughed merrily.
The down-to-earth tea restaurant was bustling with people engrossed in their own lively conversations, each table undisturbed by the others.
"Is Young Master Ye visiting Gangcheng for business, or is it...?"
Jiang Chen chatted casually.
"Of course, it’s for business. What else? Do you think I have that much free time?"
Ye Tingxuan spoke assertively.
Facing his gaze, Jiang Chen was momentarily at a loss for words.
Then Ye Tingxuan turned to look at Pei Yunxi, speaking frankly, "I heard Miss Pei was attacked with sulphuric acid here, so I came to see what exactly happened."
What is he, a judge?
Just here to see what exactly happened.
Jiang Chen silently found it amusing, maintaining a poker face.
"Thank you for your concern, Young Master Ye. The case has already been resolved, and the culprit has been caught," explained Pei Yunxi.
"No, no, no, Miss Pei, you have nothing to fear. Just like the inland, Gangcheng is a society that upholds the rule of law, and no one is above it."
If these words came from someone else, they would surely command great respect.
"I’ve already investigated for you. It was someone with the surname Xiang who did it."
Ye Tingxuan was emphatic and confident.
"Young Master Ye has just arrived in Gangcheng, hasn’t he?"
Jiang Chen interjected.
A real detective, uncovering the truth upon arrival.
Of course, Ye Tingxuan understood the implication and responded with a wry smile, "You should know me; I, Ye Tingxuan, am a reasonable person. I never wrongly accuse anyone. It was someone with the surname Xiang who admitted it themselves."
"..."
"..."
Jiang Chen and Pei Yunxi fell silent at the same time.
Understood.
Too well understood.
With Young Prince Ye’s status, he certainly wouldn’t make unfounded claims.
However, it inevitably piqued one’s curiosity, what means did he use to get someone to "admit" it themselves?
"Young Master Ye, how is Xiang Shang doing now?"
After a moment’s silence, Jiang Chen asked tentatively.
Pei Yunxi watched as the Young Master was once arrested under broad daylight.
The other party sighed gently, "I feel... it’s not very appropriate."
"..."
Jiang Chen’s eyelids twitched.
"Young Master Ye, if it really was Xiang Shang who did it, we can hand him over to the police."
Ye Tingxuan nodded, "That’s exactly what I intended to do, but I’m afraid it’s not possible now, he’s lost consciousness, we need to save him first."
"..."
Not to mention Jiang Chen, even Pei Yunxi’s eyes flickered.
What else could they pray for now?
All they could do was hope, out of humanity, that the Xiang Family’s Crown Prince still had a breath left.
"Come on, let’s eat. This tea restaurant is very authentic. Every time I come to Gangcheng, I have to come here and try it."
Ye Tingxuan enthusiastically invited.
Jiang Chen and Pei Yunxi picked up their chopsticks.
"Miss Pei, don’t you have a bodyguard? How come I have not seen her?"
Ye Tingxuan asked with interest.
"She’s at the hotel."
Ye Tingxuan looked a bit disappointed.
Did the Young Master want to meet the person who dragged Xiang Shang through the streets, or was he itching for a fight, thinking that boxing with Xiang Shang was not satisfying enough and wanted to spar with Annabelle?
If it’s the latter.
With Annabelle’s personality, she definitely would not go easy.
"Brother Jiang, after we finish eating, call her over, let’s practice with a real expert. Of course, let’s agree beforehand, ask her to hold back, especially not to hit the face."
Ye Tingxuan then said to Jiang Chen.
"..."
He guessed it right.
However, Young Master Ye indeed has many merits, one of which is self-awareness.
This point.
Is stronger than countless others.
"If Young Master Ye is interested, I can call her over, but let’s agree beforehand, the two of you can practice, count me out."
Comrade Jiang Chen is definitely not an arrogant person.
As the boss, Annabelle would give some face off the stage, but once on the stage, it’s a different story.
"Brother Jiang, you’re not that type of person."
Jiang Chen’s "cowardice" elicited Ye Tingxuan’s exclamation.
Before Jiang Chen could reply, Pei Yunxi suddenly interjected.
"Young Master Ye should be considerate, after all, he is the boss. If he gets beaten down by a bodyguard, he won’t be able to save face."
Ye Tingxuan’s eyes showed a different color, looking at Pei Yunxi who seemed to be mocking but actually helping to defuse the situation, then looking at Jiang Chen, and soon he smiled meaningfully.
"Understood, understood."
Afterward, Jiang Chen caught the appreciative but perplexed gaze from Young Master Ye.
At that moment.
Noise came from the entrance of the tea restaurant.
Then a large group of stern-looking men in black walked in, an imposing sight.
"You don’t need to pay for your meals, leave immediately."
They were going to clear the place.
It’s easy to be a keyboard warrior online, but in reality, facing such a display, how many people would dare to stir up trouble and go against fate?
The bustling atmosphere of the tea restaurant was instantly shattered.
Patrons’ hearts tightened, anxious and nervous, watching these formidable men who were clearly not to be trifled with, no one dared to argue, hastily putting down their chopsticks and heading out, as if one second’s delay could mean disaster, even if they had no idea what was going on.
Some tables had just been served and hadn’t even been touched.
Even the owner, along with the waitstaff, obediently stood aside, not daring to utter another word.
Soon, the once lively restaurant was left with a single table of guests.
Once the place was nearly empty, Xiang Yonghua, always in dark suits, entered the tea restaurant among the bows of his subordinates.
Following behind him was the somber-faced Xiang Tai.
It was as if straight out of a movie scene.
The arrival of the big boss.
