411: Chapter 411: Tonight’s Dinner Party is a Trap!

Lin Yuan messaged for help!

The banquet tonight was a trap!

In her message, she claimed there was a large group of men.

They had already plied Dean Zhang with drink until he was drunk, so she had no choice but to pretend to use the bathroom as an excuse to hide away and send a message to Wu Jie, finding herself in a dilemma.

Upon seeing the message, Tang Xiao became instantly furious.

Wu Jie really hit the nail on the head!

The other party indeed had ill intentions!

“Look at you, all anxious—didn’t you say I was assuming the worst about the best?”

Wu Jie put away his phone and glanced at Yuan Zihan.

“Keep on painting, brother is going to pick up Lin right now!”

After saying that, Wu Jie turned to Tang Xiao and muttered in a low voice:

“If she doesn’t come back, how can we go home, huh?”

Tang Xiao’s eyebrows knitted tightly as she scolded:

“Hurry up and go!

Stop dawdling!

I’ll continue to look after Zihan here!”

Wu Jie chuckled and left the hospital ward.

He replied to the message, then went downstairs, got into his car, and headed straight for the hotel Lin Yuan had messaged him from.

Meanwhile.

In the private room’s bathroom.

Lin Yuan received the reply from Wu Jie, and her uneasy heart finally settled slightly.

She listened with bated breath.

The laughter and talking in the private room was exceptionally noisy.

Today’s events were truly unfortunate.

Outside, ten burly men, each with bare, tattooed torsos and thick gold chains around their fingers,

used swear words and coarse language with every breath, each with a small bag placed in front of them, never without a cigarette in hand.

One look and anyone could tell they were no good.

And the leader of the group was known as Brother Yun.

Broad and burly with a bald head and full-arm tattoos.

His laughter was especially loud and rude, like the bandits from ancient forests.

Dining at the table, Lin Yuan heard him brag about owning two coal mines and a shipping company.

The group had arrived at the hotel in three Range Rover Sports, and they certainly had the air of nouveau riche.

But what was the result?

Initially, they claimed they would donate a seven-figure sum, but once the banquet began, they stopped mentioning how much they would donate.

Instead, they were full of flattery and praise, looking for ways to encourage drinking.

Dean Zhang had taken the initiative to block drinks for Lin Yuan and was now passed out drunk.

After drinking two glasses, Lin Yuan felt dizzy and confused.

Hiding in the bathroom, she was afraid to make any sound on the phone, and even texting was done on silent mode, fearing that walls might have ears.

“Brother Yun!

This beauty Lin has been in the bathroom for quite a while.

Should I go hurry her up for you?”

“Ah!

Since ancient times, beauties have never been able to hold their liquor.

Throwing up after a couple of drinks is normal!”

“If she isn’t drunk, where would Brother Yun get his chance?”

“This chick is top-notch, man!

She’s like a fairy!

Such a traditional beauty with a refined and elegant charm!”

…

A bunch of thuggish-looking underlings engaged in gleeful, smirking conversation.

Brother Yun sat at the head of the table, legs spread wide, looking arrogant.

He was a portly man with ears sticking out, his arms thicker than women’s thighs.

With a deep inhale of a soft Zhonghua cigarette, Brother Yun savored a mouthful of Moutai.

Glancing sideways, he noticed Dean Zhang, who was now fast asleep on the table, and Brother Yun’s lips curled into a suggestive smile.

“Hmmph!

Let’s see if I tire of playing with her in a few months, then we’ll talk!”

“But if you guys are really desperate, look, here’s one already drunk to the point of collapse!

Take her and have your fun!”

No sooner were the words out of his mouth than the underlings immediately protested.

“Damn, who wants that fifty-year-old woman!”

“Brother Yun!

This…

isn’t this forcing someone against their will?”

…

The group’s chat was full of laughter and jests that grew ever more vulgar and filthy.

Before long, the crowd even began egging Brother Yun to knock on the door and see if Lin Yuan had fallen into the toilet.

Cheering voices, shouting, whistles…

Lin Yuan felt like she had fallen into a den of hooligans.

At that moment, she was both nervous and regretful.

Fearing that Brother Yun, under their urging, would force his way in.

Regretting that she didn’t vet the dinner companions properly when Dean Zhang suggested dining together.

Facing such ‘thugs,’ what donation could she think of!

It was clear that they had set a trap to harm Lin Yuan.

To get her drunk and take her to a hotel, to be at the mercy of a bunch of vile hooligans…

The very thought terrified Lin Yuan.

Time passed by every second, every minute.

The noise outside was becoming increasingly obnoxious.

“Hey!

Beauty Lin?

What’s happened to you?”

“Don’t hide away in the bathroom!

The guys and I want to drink more with you!”

“Come out quickly!

Or let’s play a game, you drink one glass, and I’ll donate a hundred thousand?”

…

As Brother Yun laughed heartily, he banged loudly on the bathroom door.

Lin Yuan, nervous and shaking, stood with her back to the door, biting her lip and pushing hard against it.

“You guys keep eating!

I have a stomachache!”

Lin Yuan shouted loudly.

“Stomach ache?

Could it be your time of the month?”

Yun joked with a laugh.

“Yes!

Yeah!

It hurts so much, I’ve already informed my boyfriend to come pick me up!!”

Lin Yuan lied on the spot, hoping to deter Yun and the others from escalating the situation.

Upon hearing this, Yun and the ones outside immediately fell silent.

It was a while before some muffled voices emerged; they were hushed, and Lin Yuan couldn’t make out the words clearly.

“Could it really be such a coincidence?”

“It’s rare that we come by, we can’t just leave without doing anything, can we?”

“Even better if her boyfriend comes.

Get them both drunk, take them away, and then throw them together—problem solved, right?”

“Yeah!

Same education, how come you’re so smart?”

“You surely have been taking extra lessons in secret!”

“Not even a herniated disc is as prominent as you are!

What a damn good plan!”

…

After a buzzing discussion, the crowd quickly dispersed.

Lin Yuan hid in the restroom, not hearing their conversation clearly.

But she knew, time was of the essence.

If Wu Jie didn’t arrive by six, she decided she would call the police.

To protect her innocence, she’d rather offend this group of people.

However…

Just as Lin Yuan anxiously waited, her phone vibrated slightly.

Wu Jie had sent a text with six words.

“I’m here, stay hidden!”

Lin Yuan had just sent out the word “Understood” when she heard someone pounding on the outer private room door.

Thud thud thud!

After three knocks, the door was pushed open.

All the chattering people turned in unison to look at the entrance.

As soon as Wu Jie entered, his spirits lifted.

Wow, holy shit!

Did he walk into a den of thieves?

One after another, they were bald with tattoos, broad-shouldered and formidable, their gazes challenging, each facial expression more arrogant than the last.

Huge gold chains, seriously blinding!

Looking at their attire, most of them didn’t seem to be wealthy.

However, the fattest and most arrogant one among them wore a watch that looked pretty decent, probably worth tens of thousands.

“Dragons and snakes, tigers and leopards tattooed on their bodies, they are clearly from the society’s underbelly!”

Wu Jie raised his eyebrows in amusement and chuckled as he closed the door.

“Fellas from the society, why stare at me?

Don’t you recognize me?”

Yun snorted with a smirk: “You’re Lin Yuan’s boyfriend, aren’t you?

She has a stomach ache and is squatting in the toilet.

You’ve come just in time, join us brothers for a good drink!”

Girlfriend?

Wu Jie instantly understood; he was being used as a human shield again!

But what the hell, who are these thugs?

Don’t they use the internet?

They don’t even recognize me!

“Drinking?

I fucking love drinking!”

Wu Jie walked over unhurriedly and pulled out a chair to sit down.

“I heard you’re planning to donate to the orphanage?

Seeing your luxurious look, you must be donating quite a sum, right?”

Yun lightly tapped his fingertips on the table and gestured with his mouth towards Dean Zhang, who was drunk.

“I always keep my word here in Beilong County, spitting once and driving in one nail.

Today, indeed, we’ve come to donate money!”

“One drink worth thirty thousand, and Dean Zhang couldn’t handle two drinks.

Your girlfriend barely drank one before she ran to the bathroom!”

“What about you, kiddo?

Would you like to earn a little extra for your orphanage?”

Wu Jie replied with a cheerful smile, “Sure!

But what if I get drunk, and you don’t donate?

Wouldn’t I be at a loss then?”

Yun snorted, amused: “Clever boy, aren’t you!”

With a snap of his fingers, a lackey immediately came over with a bag.

Thump, he dumped a thick stack of cash in front of Wu Jie.

“Here’s fifty thousand they earned, take it first.

If you want to drink and earn money, then drink up!

For each glass, I’ll give thirty thousand!”

Yun said with a wicked smile on his face.

“Sure!”

Wu Jie picked up the glass and scoffed with a laugh:

“But the money in that bag of yours might not be enough for my drinking!”

“Oh, feeling cocky, huh?”

With a wave of Yun’s hand, several lackeys started to place all their cash on the table.

They had brought several hundreds of thousands for both checking out Tianyuan’s underground market and indulging in some pleasure.

As pile after pile of cash was laid on the table, Wu Jie merely smiled coldly.

Setting down the glass, Wu Jie asked with a smile, “Shall we count it first, to see just how much there is?”

Yun scoffed with a laugh: “Do we really need to count it?

It’s enough to drink yourself to death!”

With that remark, the others laughed even more scornfully.

They looked at Wu Jie as if he were a fool, laughing out loud.

“Even if I drink myself to death, I still need to know how much there is!” said Wu Jie with a jesting smirk.

“Otherwise, how does the saying go—’Men die for wealth, as birds die for food’?”

“Ha!

Showing off your learning to me now, are you?

Fine!

Guys, give it a count!”

Upon Yun’s command, nine lackeys got busy right away.

They quickly tallied up the total, and after deducting the ninety thousand already given, there was six hundred thousand left.

Watching Wu Jie eyeing the money, Yun maliciously teased with a smirk:

“One drink for thirty thousand, go on and drink, little punk.

I want to see how much money you can walk away with alive!”
