Chapter 74: Chapter 74 I’m a bit picky about red wine

Night fell.

The streetlights began to glow.

The motorcade slowly stopped in front of a private club.

The serene environment, complemented by the Golden Splendor decor.

"Have you ever been inside such a luxurious place?"

Leng Mu, who had disembarked from the car, pursed his lips and glanced at Lin Fan.

The moment this eyesore appeared, he completely ruined the night.

"Not really, it’s so fancy. Eating a meal here must cost an arm and a leg, practically paying for the owner’s renovation. Street food stalls are much better value."

Lin Fan curled his lip, looking disgusted.

"You don’t know shit, eating out is about enjoyment for the rich. Today I’ll broaden your horizons, show you what the life of the wealthy is like!"

Leng Mu rolled his eyes as he spoke.

"Enjoyment isn’t that important, but don’t people usually bring a beauty to places like this? Mr. Leng, aren’t you bringing a lady companion?"

Lin Fan immediately put his arm around Ning Mengyao’s slender waist.

Only then did he smile at Leng Mu.

"You..."

Leng Mu was suddenly at a loss for words.

He was mocking him while holding his own goddess.

That guy was really infuriating when he talked.

"Let’s go inside."

Of course, Ning Mengyao didn’t want the situation to become awkward.

She hurriedly took Lin Fan’s arm and ascended the steps.

"You wait and see, you dare to take Laozi’s woman, you’ll get what’s coming to you tonight!"

Watching their retreating figures, Leng Mu felt an itchy rage.

His mind whirred with thoughts; he had to make Lin Fan look foolish tonight.

"Good evening, this is a private kitchen. We can only accommodate if you have a reservation!"

As the two stepped into the opulent restaurant, the staff greeted them politely with these words.

Clearly, this was the place Leng Mu had chosen.

They, of course, hadn’t made a reservation.

Leng Mu, who had intentionally stayed behind, then stepped forward.

"Are you blind? I spend millions here in a year, and you don’t recognize me?"

"I..."

The staff was shocked by the sudden scolding.

He didn’t know what to do.

"So it’s Mr. Leng. What a failing on our part not to have welcomed you sooner."

Fortunately, at this moment, a beautiful woman came out from inside and hurriedly greeted Leng Mu warmly.

"She’s new here and does not recognize you. I hope Mr. Leng can be magnanimous. Your reserved private room is inside; I’ll take you there."

"Your management is truly poor. Don’t just hire any Tom, Dick, or Harry. If just anyone could dine here, why would I need to come?"

As Leng Mu spoke, he intentionally walked between Lin Fan and Ning Mengyao.

He cast a disdainful glance at the flushed-faced staffer.

"Yes, yes, Mr. Leng is absolutely right. I’ll give her a thorough scolding for you in a moment."

The beautiful manager hurriedly led the three of them to a private room inside.

All the while she was cordial and solicitous.

Leng Mu enjoyed the attention greatly.

With a smirk, he couldn’t help but steal a glance at Ning Mengyao, who was clinging to Lin Fan’s arm.

"When you have money, make sure not to treat others as beneath you!"

Although Ning Mengyao forced a smile, deep down she was quite repelled by his behavior.

She didn’t forget to remind Lin Fan not to think he was better than others just because he had money.

"Boss, aren’t you aware of whether I have money or not?"

Lin Fan gave a bittersweet smile and blinked.

Being in love with the boss meant he had to find ways to fill his own coffers.

"Mr. Leng, this is the lovers’ suite that you reserved... Why don’t you wait a moment, and I’ll change your room for you."

When they arrived at the entrance of the spacious private room for two, the manager turned to look at the three of them.

It typically had two chairs as a standard setup.

"No need, Mr. Leng won’t eat much anyway, just sitting casually is fine."

Lin Fan said with a smile and pushed the door open to enter.

"What do you mean by that?"

Leng Mu’s face darkened.

This was supposed to be a candlelit dinner between him and Ning Mengyao.

Now it had all been ruined by this damn construction worker.

"My meaning is quite simple, aren’t you already full on dog food?"

Lin Fan pulled out a chair and gallantly let Ning Mengyao sit down.

Then he looked at Leng Mu across the table with a smile.

"Brat, I’m only letting you tag along because of Meng Yao’s face. Don’t be ungrateful. Without me, with your poor and shabby look, you wouldn’t be able to step foot in here in your entire life!"

Leng Mu pulled out another chair and plopped down on it.

His eyes were fixed on Lin Fan.

This guy was becoming more and more outrageous.

"My wife said we are the hosts tonight. Even if we’re mixing, it’s at our own house. As for you, make the most of eating and drinking while you can. Eat more of it."

Lin Fan said, smiling as he pulled a chair from the hallway and sat down in the middle of the long table.

"I won’t spend a woman’s money or freeload off a woman’s meal. Only a spineless wimp would be so useless as to mooch off a woman. I’ll foot the bill for the meal today!"

Leng Mu crossed his legs and looked at Lin Fan disdainfully.

His words clearly insinuated that Lin Fan was the incapable one.

"Since Mr. Leng is so generous, then I won’t be polite."

Lin Fan held up his hand to stop Ning Mengyao, who was about to speak.

If he wanted to treat them, then they might as well have a good meal.

"Alright, alright, I’m giving face to Meng Yao here. You country bumpkin, order whatever you want, but I’m not making this hard for you—without looking at the menu, as long as you can name it, I’ll pay for it."

Sure that Lin Fan had never been to a high-end restaurant, Leng Mu crossed his legs, looking down on him with disdain.

That was just the first hurdle.

"I’m not really good at ordering, but since Mr. Leng is being so generous, I’ll humbly accept. Let’s have braised pork knuckles, Dongpo pork, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, and slippery fat intestines. For the vegetable dish, just a seasonal one will do."

Lin Fan rubbed his chin and said with a smile.

"Meng Yao, where on earth did you pick up this construction worker? Do you really think this place is like a food stall, ordering all these greasy dishes? In this day and age, only poor people like to eat pork. Let him eat it by himself. We refined people should focus on healthy eating. The steak here is all imported Wagyu beef. How about you have one?"

Leng Mu curled his lip and laughed disdainfully.

At that moment, Ning Mengyao’s face was full of black lines, stealing glances at Lin Fan with a murderous look in her eyes.

The dishes this guy had just ordered were really too shabby.

"Eating steak is great, but with steak comes red wine, right? I’m a bit picky about red wine!"

Lin Fan licked his lips and said with a grin.

"Fine, fine, same rule applies. Without looking at the menu, as long as you can name it, I’ll let you drink to your heart’s content."

Leng Mu looked at Lin Fan smugly.

Based on those dishes he just ordered.

This construction worker probably couldn’t even name a single red wine.

At this moment, Ning Mengyao was already angry.

A bit more effort might just be enough to sow discord.

"Mr. Leng, then I won’t be shy!"

Lin Fan snapped his fingers with a beaming smile.

"Do you have Vosne-Romanée here? I like the taste of the 1864 vintage!"

"Yes, we have it,"

the waiter immediately stepped forward and said respectfully.

"Alright, then bring me a bottle!"

"Wait... how much is that what’s-it-called Romanée?"

Before the waiter could respond, Leng Mu quickly stopped him.

He had never even heard of this wine.

"Eight hundred and thirty thousand a bottle!"

"Don’t!"
