Chapter 74: Chapter 74: You Can’t Leave Chapter 74: Chapter 74: You Can’t Leave Wang Meimei and Huang Hua were both waiting to see Lin Dong make a fool of himself.
They thought Lin Dong didn’t have the money to pay the bill and was pretending to be a big spender, waiting for the moment he would cry.
But who knew, when the time came, who would actually be the one crying?
At this moment, Huang Hua asked again, “Meimei, I’m preparing to offer a toast to your boyfriend, President Wang. Could you introduce me please?”
“Of course, that’s no problem, but my Brother Biao is currently hosting a big shot,” Wang Meimei said with a hint of boasting.
“Oh, what big shot?” Huang Hua eagerly asked.
“Brother Snake from Black Dragon Society. Since Tiger Master passed away, Brother Snake has taken a step closer. My Brother Biao wants to build a good relationship with him, so he especially invited him here to dine!” Wang Meimei explained.
Hearing this, Huang Hua’s eyes lit up:
“Actually, Brother Snake? Then I really must offer a toast,” he said.
Having said this, he quickly took that bottle of unfinished Feitian Maotai and followed Wang Meimei to offer his toast.
And he didn’t forget to bring along his intern, Zhang Yao.
Seeing this, Qiao Bing couldn’t help shaking her head, finding the behavior of Huang Hua and Zhang Yao quite speechless.
You’re both doctors, running to offer a toast to a businessman, all for those little connections, is it worth it?
Lin Dong was also very confused; Brother Snake, whom he had called dog to his face, had become a big shot?
Then what was he?
Soon, Huang Hua and Zhang Yao had finished offering their toasts.
When they returned, they had smiles on their faces.
Huang Hua had a boastful expression, as if offering a toast to Brother Snake and Wang Biao was such an honorable thing.
He even gave Lin Dong a special look, as if to say, a person like Lin Dong would never have the chance to sit at the same table with Brother Snake in this lifetime.
Lin Dong didn’t know what he had to boast about.
A sense of superiority from offering a toast?
He was just quietly eating his food.
Huang Hua was still showing off:
“Just now, when I went to offer a toast to President Wang and Brother Snake, I found out that they are also going to attend the auction held by the Jianghai Commerce Association in a few days.”
“Moreover, through casual chatting, I learned something from Brother Snake.”
“Huh, did you guys know that Lord Lin Hu has died? It’s said that he was killed by his own brother, Brother Bao, who’s now on the run, and now Sister Hong has taken Tiger Master’s place and has taken his seat…” he said.
After these words, everyone began discussing the matter.
It was as if they were discussing gossip, expressing their opinions on the matter.
“Sister Hong, a woman, actually managed to take Tiger Master’s position, that’s quite something.”
“I had the fortune of meeting Sister Hong once, and I can only say that not only is this woman beautiful, but she’s also very capable.”
“…”
Huang Hua’s intern, Zhang Yao, heard everyone discussing Sister Hong and said with an admiring face:
“If I could become a person like Sister Hong, that would be wonderful.”
Huang Hua then thought to himself that next time, he must plead with Brother Snake to introduce him to Sister Hong.
If he could get acquainted with a person like Sister Hong, then he, Huang Hua, would have more to talk about at the dinner table in the future.
“Right, Brother Snake said that Sister Hong will also go to the auction. I wonder if I can have a chat with her at the auction!”
Thinking like this, Huang Hua was looking forward to attending that auction even more.
Afterward, everyone’s talks were all about the Black Dragon Society.
Lin Dong found it very boring and hardly spoke.
Qiao Bing also found it boring, thinking that everyone had eaten and drank their fill, so it was about time to leave.
So, she said, “Everyone has pretty much finished eating, right? Why don’t we head back, we still have to get up early for work tomorrow.”
Everyone had eaten their fill and upon hearing Qiao Bing speak, they all nodded.
“I’m full!”
“The food here is really good, and the wine is strong enough.”
“Lin Dong, thanks for treating us.”
“…”
Everyone’s gaze landed on Lin Dong.
Huang Hua also looked towards him.
The long-awaited moment had finally arrived—it was time to settle the bill.
“Lin Dong, bet you didn’t expect this meal to cost tens of thousands of pieces. You definitely can’t cough up that much money. Let’s see what you’re going to do now.”
Huang Hua sneered inwardly, thinking he was about to witness Lin Dong’s embarrassment.
However, Lin Dong walked straight out of the restaurant, without any intention of settling the bill.
Seeing this, Huang Hua exclaimed, “Lin Dong, what are you doing? Go and settle the bill. Where do you think you’re going?”
The others also turned their attention to Lin Dong.
Qiao Bing thought, could Lin Dong really not have the money to pay the bill? If that was the case, she could help him out.
Yet, Lin Dong didn’t bother with Huang Hua and continued to walk outside.
Huang Hua could no longer contain himself, pointing at Lin Dong, he yelled to the restaurant staff:
“What are you standing around for? We were supposed to have our meal paid for by that man. He’s trying to bolt without paying, dining and dashing—catch him!”
However, as soon as he finished, the shop manager approached from not too far off.
First, he gave Huang Hua a disdainful look, then said, “Running out on the bill? Mister Lin Dong is one of our most esteemed guests at this restaurant!”
“We’ve already let him dine free of charge!”
Then, directing a deep bow towards where Lin Dong stood:
“Mister Lin Dong, we’re thankful for your patronage, and we hope you’ll come again soon!”
Wow~~~
The shop manager’s words and actions left everyone dumbfounded.
Why had Lin Dong become the most honored guest?
This is Yu Jiangnan Hotel we’re talking about!
Lin Dong did not explain in the face of everyone’s questions but shrugged and said, “It’s getting late, why is everyone still standing around?”
“Hurry up and go home to rest; we have to get up early for work tomorrow.”
After speaking, he took the lead and left with Sister Bai Jue.
Qiao Bing watched in a daze, thinking to herself that Lin Dong was no ordinary man. Her curiosity about him only intensified.
The other doctors and nurses were also increasingly curious about Lin Dong, finding him somewhat mysterious.
To become the most honored guest of the Yu Jiangnan Hotel and dine on the house! Such treatment, even the Hospital Director wouldn’t be entitled to.
Though everyone was full of questions, since Lin Dong offered no explanation, it wasn’t their place to press further.
Furthermore, Lin Dong had already left, so even if they wanted to ask, it was too late; they could only leave with their questions unanswered.
Huang Hua was especially baffled. Only after everyone else had gone did he come back to his senses.
“What on earth just happened?” He muttered to himself, puzzled, and prepared to leave.
However, just as he was about to leave, the restaurant staff stopped him.
“Sorry, Mister Huang, but you cannot leave yet. Please settle your own bill.”
Huang Hua nodded. Although it was painful, he had boasted earlier, so he and the intern, Zhang Yao’s expenses, were on him.
He took the bill, then glanced at it.
At that glance, he was stunned!!
“What the hell, how did I rack up 730,000!? His hand holding the bill couldn’t help but tremble.
