Chen Chao didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Young Master Jiang, you must be joking. Our boss said that our security did a poor job last time. She even instructed that if Young Master Jiang comes again, the drinks are on the house as an apology for our poor hospitality last time..."
Jiang Cheng waved his hand: "No need for freebies. We aren't short of money for drinks..."
Seeing Jiang Cheng refuse, Shen An chimed in: "Exactly. Thirteenth Aunt wouldn't happen to have a crush on our Brother Cheng, would she? But unfortunately, our Brother Cheng already has a sister-in-law..."
Seeing Shen An joking about their bar's boss, Chen Chao could only smile apologetically.
Not only Jiang Cheng was here today, but also Wang Congcong and Qin Fen. He couldn't afford to offend any of the young masters present...
"Of course. Rest assured, today's drinks are the freshest, and those vintage cellar collections are also prepared for you."
Jiang Cheng waved his hand and then said to Chen Chao: "The usual. Bring out some great divine dragons, little divine dragons, and some champagne. Oh, and some Wangzai... and some fruit platters, just match them as you see fit..."
After understanding this, Chen Chao quickly nodded: "Understood, Young Master Jiang. Then I'll arrange some basic entertainment first, and open a few 'great divine dragons' and 'little divine dragons' to warm up the scene for everyone. How does that sound?"
After Jiang Cheng gave an 'en', he saw Fang Yuan staring curiously at the leather wine list in the Sales Manager's hand. He reached out, took it from the Sales Manager, and placed it in Fang Yuan's hand.
"Take a look. Is there anything you want to drink? Or want to try?"
"Ah? Me..." Fang Yuan hadn't expected him to ask her so suddenly.
After all, the others hadn't ordered yet.
It wasn't that she liked drinking that much; she just hadn't seen it before and wanted to take a look.
Matching Fang Yuan's inner thoughts, Chen Chao wasn't surprised that Jiang Cheng didn't ask Wang Congcong and the others.
Although Jiang Cheng hadn't come with Wang Congcong last time, looking at the seating and posture now, his status in this group was clearly higher than Wang Congcong's.
Although Fang Yuan was a bit constrained, she still couldn't suppress her curiosity and did as Jiang Cheng said.
After opening it, Fang Yuan saw beautifully printed foreign languages and pictures inside.
Then she subconsciously looked at the great divine dragon and little divine dragon Jiang Cheng had just ordered.
The number of zeros after the price column made her eyelids twitch slightly.
However, she wasn't a girl who had never seen the world, and she had encountered expensive alcohol before.
She quickly calmed herself down, her face showing no "Oh my god, so expensive" expression of surprise, but instead browsing calmly.
After a general look, her gaze swept past Jiang Cheng, who was looking at her.
She also looked at Wang Congcong, Wang Zheng, and the others nearby, who were laughing and talking, though their attention seemed to drift over intentionally or unintentionally.
Then, she closed the wine list and gently pushed it back to the center of the table.
"By the way, just now Wang..." Realizing she was about to call them by their full names, Fang Yuan cleared her throat and spoke again as naturally as possible: "Just now Brother Wang and Brother Qin mentioned they like eating spicy duck head with their drinks. Shall we order some spicy duck head? Drinking on an empty stomach is bad for the stomach."
The words fell.
A few seconds of eerie silence occurred in the booth.
The smile on Wang Congcong's face froze, and the corner of his mouth twitched suspiciously.
Wang Zheng and Qin Fen looked at each other. The two guys who were just talking eloquently were now gaping, looking completely bewildered, with expressions of "Who am I? Where am I? What am I saying?"
Shen Lang quickly lowered his head, his shoulders starting to shake suspiciously.
And those few girls from the Atmosphere Group, after their initial shock, several of them couldn't hold back and let out a "pfft" laugh.
They thought this "sister-in-law" was too funny, actually ordering real duck heads in this kind of setting, and even using it to tease Young Master Wang and the others.
However, just as their laughter started, Shen Lang suddenly raised his head. Although he was also suppressing a laugh, his gaze was warning, coldly sweeping over the girls who had laughed.
The meaning in that gaze was clear: "Is it your turn to laugh? Do you know the rules?"
With that sweep, the faces of the girls from the Atmosphere Group instantly turned pale, and they sensibly stopped laughing.
A flash of panic crossed their faces as they quickly lowered their heads or looked away, pretending to fix their hair or glasses, not daring to look toward the main seats again.
In the whole place, only Jiang Cheng couldn't hold it back and burst out laughing with a "pfft".
Seeing this, Fang Yuan gave Jiang Cheng a somewhat puzzled look: "What's wrong?"
She hadn't completely understood the situation yet, only feeling that the atmosphere had suddenly become very strange.
Seeing Fang Yuan's innocent look, Jiang Cheng suppressed his laughter, cleared his throat, and signaled to Wang Congcong and the others with his eyes.
"Alright, hold it in. Don't scare her."
Then he turned his head and, in a serious tone, instructed Chen Chao, who was still trying to manage his expression and pretending he hadn't seen anything:
"Did you hear that? Do as she said. Besides the alcohol, bring some... 'spicy duck head'. Remember, get the signature ones for them to go with their drinks."
Intuition told her something was wrong with Jiang Cheng's words, especially since he even used his eyes to warn Wang Congcong and the others.
Fang Yuan couldn't help but ask: "Did I order the wrong thing? Do they not like it?"
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng subconsciously placed his hand on Fang Yuan's thigh and patted it: "How could they not like it? Duck heads with alcohol, the more you have, the better it gets. It's a standard pairing for drinking... I just thought of something happy just now..."
Fang Yuan was a bit confused by the scene at this point, so much so that she didn't even bother to care that Jiang Cheng's hand was still on her thigh.
She leaned over to look at Shen An and Wang Congcong, asking: "Really? If you don't like it, don't force yourselves. I just ordered randomly... don't mind me..."
Wang Zheng immediately took over the conversation: "Sister-in-law, you're overthinking it. We all like it..."
Wang Congcong immediately agreed: "Exactly, I just laughed because I thought of something happy too..."
Shen An added: "Exactly, thanks, sister-in-law."
Fang Yuan smiled upon hearing that, and then followed up with Jiang Cheng: "What happy thing did you think of?"
"Oh, my brother is having a baby~"
Fang Yuan's beautiful eyes blinked: "Is your brother as big as you?"
"My brother is definitely not as big as me..."
Hearing this, Fang Yuan frowned: "How old are you anyway? If your brother is smaller than you and he's already having a baby..."
Jiang Cheng said as if it were a matter of course: "I'm quite big. Everyone who's seen me says I'm not small..."
"Ah? If you insist on saying you're big, I guess that's true, but I'm curious how small your brother actually is..."
The others nearby heard the cross-talk between Jiang Cheng and Fang Yuan and instantly couldn't help but laugh again.
However, as they laughed, the eyes of several people couldn't help but turn a bit red.
They couldn't help but feel a bit heartbroken.
This motherf*cker, it's truly a bit heartbreaking..
If they were to say to the girls from the Atmosphere Group on the scene:
"I'm not small..."
The other party would definitely say: "Let me see..."
With such a comparison, tell me, wouldn't you want to cry?
Where on earth did this Jiang Cheng find so many beautiful and innocent women?
