That statement was a bit too much.
However, Fang Yu came here with a clear purpose, and he didn’t seem to mind.
It was Xu Zhaopei who got angry.
Who speaks like that?
Xu Zhaopei looked at the three foreigners and said, "Please mind your language... Mr. Fred is humble and polite, how could he possibly associate with people like you?"
Hearing this.
The Caucasian actually burst into laughter and said, "That’s because Fred is too embarrassed to say..."
"I don’t believe Fred is that kind of person! I’ve known him for so long, I understand his character very well. You three are not worthy to be Fred’s friends!" Xu Zhaopei scolded, "I demand you apologize to Fang Yu."
Mentioning apology.
The three of them laughed again.
The two blonde beauties even laughed till they held their bellies.
"It’s a joke that two little Eastern Martial Artists are asking us to apologize. Know your place!"
Slap!
Xu Zhaopei slammed the table and said, "Social status? Are you sure you want to compare status?"
Just as she finished speaking.
From the direction of the kitchen, Fred came over with two dishes and a beaming smile.
In fact, he had heard everything said in the dining room clearly, but he still wore a smile.
Still maintaining the demeanor of a gentleman.
He put down the dishes and then said, "Please take your seats, everyone."
Fang Yu didn’t hesitate, saying, "It smells really good, Mr. Fred is much more generous than the three of you." After speaking, he took a seat at the dining table.
The three foreigners had faces full of discontent.
At this moment, Fred wiped his hands and said calmly:
"You three, apologize to Mr. Fang and Miss Xu."
Hearing this.
The Caucasian was puzzled and said, "Fred, are you mistaken? Asking me to apologize to Huaxia people?"
The blonde beauties shook their heads even more, saying, "I won’t apologize to them! Two Huaxia Martial Artists... Fred, you weren’t like this before, did you take the wrong medicine today?"
Upon hearing this.
Fred’s expression changed slightly as he shouted, "I told you to apologize to Mr. Fang!"
The three of them were startled.
Their faces turning extremely ugly.
Xu Zhaopei’s anger was also extinguished by Fred’s attitude.
Fang Yu didn’t think it was necessary and said, "There’s no need to apologize... It’s rare for everyone to get together, having a meal is not easy."
The Caucasian was already a tall and burly man, deep down extremely disdainful of Huaxia people.
He thought Fred would support them, but to his dismay, that wasn’t the case, and though angry, he could only sit down resentfully since this was Fred’s home.
Xu Zhaopei smiled and said, "Mr. Fred, I’m really sorry."
"Not at all... It’s me who didn’t introduce my friends properly." Fred replied with gentlemanly grace.
Xu Zhaopei sat beside Fang Yu, praising, "Fang Yu, see? Fred isn’t as bad as you thought, he’s quite the gentleman... and quite clear on what’s right and wrong."
Fred heard Xu Zhaopei praising him and felt extremely pleased inside.
Yet he remained composed on the surface.
Like everyone else, he took his seat.
"Mr. Fang, please excuse me for any lack of manners on our first meeting, how about a glass of red wine?"
Fang Yu chuckled, "I can’t drink red wine. Do you have any Erguotou? Moutai and Wuliangye will do, too."
"..." Fred was once again taken aback.
How could there possibly be any Huaxia white liquor in his house when he doesn’t usually drink that kind of alcohol?
"You don’t look like a drinker. Your name is Fred, right?"
"Yes, that’s me. What about it?"
"Peipei is still young and naive, I can understand that. But why are you trying so hard to impress in front of someone who knows better?" Fang Yu said with a smile.
"Impress? Mr. Fang, I don’t quite understand what you mean."
Seeing Fred continually making excuses,
Fang Yu took a sip of his drink, put down the glass, and spoke calmly, "Tell me, are you interested in Peipei?"
At that question, Xu Zhaopei froze in place.
Fred candidly replied, "Indeed, I have profound feelings for Miss Xu... From the moment I saw her, I knew she was the woman I wanted to protect for the rest of my life."
"So, you’re saying you are very devoted?" asked Fang Yu.
"I wouldn’t dare claim much, but when it comes to love, I am indeed devoted..." Fred said proudly.
"Pfft, I don’t buy it," Fang Yu rolled his eyes.
Xu Zhaopei felt that Fang Yu was very hostile towards Fred, so she hastened to smooth things over, "Fang Yu, don’t treat Fred like this... You don’t want me, but you won’t let others chase me either. You’re being too overbearing... Besides, Fred isn’t the kind of person you’re making him out to be."
"How do you know he isn’t that kind of person?" Fang Yu asked.
"Although we’re just colleagues, I understand him."
"What do you understand about him?" Fang Yu couldn’t help but chuckle. Women are so thoughtless. A genuine vampire standing right in front of you, and you have no clue, yet you have the nerve to say you understand him.
"Fang Yu, there’s no need to corner me like this... Are you jealous?" Xu Zhaopei cunningly smiled, tilted her head, and whispered to Fang Yu.
Just then—
Bang!
A white man slammed a wine bottle onto the table and said, "Fred, you might tolerate it, but I can’t. The woman you’re into is flirting with another man right in front of you, and you can still sit still?"
"Jack, mind your own business!" Fred said with a stern face.
How could he not be angry? He was ready to explode.
But...
His own matters were, of course, for him to handle.
The white man Jack sat down.
Fred picked up the red wine.
The whole place fell silent.
Everyone noticed that Fred’s expression had turned very serious.
He poured the red wine into Fang Yu’s glass in front of him and half-filled his own as well, then said with a smile, "Mr. Fang... I’m not one for beating around the bush. Let’s talk straight."
"Sure, I like to get straight to the point too," said Fang Yu with a smile.
At that moment,
Fred took out a set of keys, pushed them across to Fang Yu, and said, "This is the key to the car outside. I’ll give it to you. Moreover, I’ll provide you with a card containing one million US dollars. If you’re not used to the car, you can sell it on the market... This money should be enough for you to live in Jiangzhou for a lifetime. I only have one condition... Stay away from Xu Zhaopei from today onwards, and cut ties with her forever."
Upon hearing his words,
The white man and the two blonde beauties couldn’t help but laugh gleefully. This was more like the Fred they knew.
However...
Xu Zhaopei had never expected Fred could do such a thing.
What does this mean? We have no relationship at all, so why are you doing this?
Before she could speak, Fang Yu stood up and said,
"A few million to send me off? You seem to have missed the housing prices in Jiangzhou... Let me do the math for you. The lowest average price per square meter in Jiangzhou City is seventy to eighty thousand. For a hundred square meter house, you’re looking at at least eight million. Besides that, living expenses are at least two to three thousand a month, and that’s if I’m frugal. In the future, I also need to get married, have kids, and those dowries aren’t cheap... However, I can solve all of this just by relying on Xu Zhaopei’s support! Can you do the math on that?"
