Chapter 75: Chapter 75 The Real Big Shot

Inside the private room, it was peaceful.

The situation was so awkward that it was difficult to conclude.

"Lin Fan, don’t go too far. Mr. Leng is treating us, how can you order such expensive wine!"

She stole a glance at Leng Mu, whose face had turned ashen.

Ning Mengyao, holding back laughter, purposely scolded Lin Fan.

"I’m fine with anything else, it’s just that I’m a bit picky about red wine. I can hardly swallow stuff like Lafite or any of that sort. The one I ordered was already the most economical choice. Just now, Mr. Leng said he was wealthy, so I thought he wouldn’t mind spending a million or two."

Lin Fan rubbed his nose, innocently looking towards Leng Mu.

"You can’t even swallow Lafite, and you pretend to be rich in front of Laozi? Even if I were rich, I wouldn’t waste it on your whims!"

Leng Mu glared at Lin Fan, full of fury.

If he hadn’t sensed something was off and asked...

He would have suffered a huge loss.

"Alright, it seems Mr. Leng isn’t particularly wealthy, so let’s just eat more. After all, you probably won’t be able to enjoy this delicious food for a while."

Lin Fan smiled as he picked up his chopsticks and placed a piece of braised pork onto Leng Mu’s plate.

"What the hell do you mean? I’m giving Meng Yao face, so I’m not stooping to your level, you poor bastard. But you’ve provoked me over and over again. If you don’t give a reason today, do you believe I won’t kill you?"

Leng Mu slammed the table and stood up.

He glared furiously at the innocent-looking Lin Fan.

"Mr. Leng, don’t be angry. I’m only thinking of your best interest. There are some things you’re better off not knowing so that you can eat in peace. If you really knew, you might not even be able to eat at all."

Lin Fan kept his harmless smile.

"Are you never done? I’ve been annoyed with you for a long time. If you don’t make yourself clear today, Laozi will kill you!"

Leng Mu gnashed his molars, glaring venomously at Lin Fan.

A few thugs who had entered the room brandished their butterfly knives.

They looked ready to fight for their lives at any moment.

"No, no, no, since Mr. Leng wants to know, then will it be okay if I just tell you?"

Lin Fan smiled, holding back Ning Mengyao, who was about to get up.

He then continued, "This morning, Mr. Xu Dewang came to our company to discuss a collaboration. I saw him out, and when he found out I was Mr. Ning’s assistant, we exchanged WeChats. In the elevator, he told me that some blind fool had arranged to block his logistics company, disrupting his delivery for the whole morning, causing him a significant loss. He has already asked the Martial Alliance for help in finding out who the enemy is."

"The Martial Alliance!"

When Leng Mu heard these two words, he felt as if the world was spinning.

Last night, Luo Shaoyong had taught him a lesson.

If he were to fall into his hands again, the consequences were unimaginable.

"Just now during dinner, Mr. Xu suddenly messaged me asking if I knew Mr. Leng. I said I had the good fortune of dining with you, and he asked for the address here, telling me not to inform you just yet, as he wanted to give you a ’surprise.’ He said something about making you unable to walk away from it. I guess he might be preparing to treat you to a meal, Mr. Leng. Your connections are truly extensive!"

Lin Fan looked at Leng Mu, whose face had turned pale.

Sweat beaded on Leng Mu’s forehead, and he was shaking uncontrollably.

"Meng Yao, I... I have something urgent... I need to leave..."

Leng Mu knew he couldn’t stay here any longer.

If he were to be caught by the Martial Alliance, it certainly wouldn’t end well.

"Mr. Leng, don’t rush, we’ve ordered so much food. Why don’t you settle the bill first?"

Lin Fan asked with a mischievous smile.

Leng Mu had no time for further talk.

Escaping was the priority now.

But just as he was about to open the door of the private room...

The doorway was already blocked by several men with broad shoulders and stout bodies.

"So you’re the Leng Mu who ordered the blockage of my logistics warehouse?"

Mr. Xu Dewang, the leader, had a grim look on his face.

He looked disdainfully at Leng Mu standing across from him.

"Mr. Xu... well... it’s all a misunderstanding... let’s talk this over... whatever loss you’ve incurred... I’ll compensate!"

Leng Mu, whose legs were shaking, looked at Xu Dewang pleadingly.

Completely terrified by the people of the Martial Alliance, he was no longer the least bit arrogant.

"Of course, the loss will be compensated for, but blocking my transportation line is like slapping my face. Do you think this can just be left at that? Come with me, let’s talk about it slowly."

Xu Dewang waved his hand.

Two sturdy men behind him surged forward.

They pinned the frail Leng Mu to the ground.

"Meng Yao... save me... I did it all for you... you can’t ignore me..."

Leng Mu, struggling fiercely, roared loudly.

His followers had already been pinned down to the ground.

"Mr. Xu... Mr. Xu, wait a moment... there must be some misunderstanding here... he did this to help me salvage the partnership... it was somewhat rash, and if there are any losses, I can make up for them at a discount," Ning Mengyao said quickly, having come to her senses.

This incident did indeed start because of her, and despite being a woman, she had the courage to face the consequences.

"Mr. Ning, do you think I, Xu Dewang, am a three-year-old child who can be frightened and begged for mercy by a few losers?"

Xu Dewang gave a cold laugh, no longer hiding his thoughts.

"To be honest with you, I originally agreed to help your cousin, Ning Changfeng, oppose you. We are all businessmen, and business is business – it’s dumb not to make money when you can. I have no reason not to take this money, and I think you can understand that. However, the reason I changed my mind this morning is entirely because of the arrangement of a certain important person. I am just following orders, and to tell you the truth, if it weren’t for that person protecting you, it wouldn’t just be him I’d be taking away tonight based on the act of blocking my way and slapping my face."

"An important person? Who is it!"

Ning Mengyao, in disbelief, covered her mouth.

She had actually thought that the unreliable Leng Mu had helped her.

She had not expected that there was a mysterious benefactor involved.

She was too curious about who this person could be.

"Mr. Ning, don’t ask. Even if you do, I can’t tell you. After all, if that important person wants to tell you, they will do so in person. Let’s leave today’s matter at that. I’ll take this man with me and won’t disturb your meal anymore."

Xu Dewang nodded slightly to Lin Fan, who was standing inside.

All this had been done according to his instructions.

As the door to the private room closed slowly, Ning Mengyao still stood there.

The event had happened so suddenly, she still couldn’t quite accept it.

"Good thing he’s a member, we can deduct the cost of the meal from his card. Do you want to eat anything? The braised pork won’t taste good once it’s cold."

Lin Fan pushed the chair aside.

The couple’s private room was finally quiet.

"Who do you think is the important person Mr. Xu talked about?" asked Ning Mengyao, furrowing her eyebrows as she sat back down.

But she, who had no appetite for food or drink, could not think of anyone who might be helping her.

"Is it possible that it’s me?" Lin Fan said with a smile as he picked up a piece of braised pork and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Stop talking nonsense. If you’re a big shot, then I’m a fairy descended from heaven!" Ning Mengyao gave Lin Fan a white-eye, resting her chin in her hands.

Suddenly, an idea struck her, and she cried out loud.

"Oh... right... I know... it has to be him... only he could do it!"

"Who?" Lin Fan was curious as he looked at Ning Mengyao.

Was there someone else trying to claim the credit?

"It must be Linglong’s mysterious boyfriend. She once said that her boyfriend has a special identity. It must be him helping in secret!"

Ning Mengyao’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

"You’re right from a certain angle!" Lin Fan shrugged his shoulders.

After all, he was indeed Linglong’s mysterious boyfriend.
