Chapter 177: Placing the Tables Side-by-Side
Cold-blooded animals.
Lu Chengzhou’s black eyes were frosty.
“Did the Lei family say that?” Passing the hot tea that the stall owner had served, he lifted his chin. “Drink some.”
Gu Mang took the green tea. She placed the disposable plastic cup on her palm. It was very warm. Her pretty face looked down and she hummed mildly in the affirmative. Sometimes even she wondered if she was really so cold-blooded.
Lu Chengzhou sat on the small chair, looking very out of place. It was as though he had no space to place for his long legs.
He rested his arms on his knees, his wrists hanging naturally, and his fingertips pointed to the air. “Want to take back your parents’ inheritance?”
Lu Chengzhou found it hard to believe that those people were Gu Mang’s biological parents.
They gave all their inheritance to the one named Gu Yin as though they had no regard for Gu Mang and Gu Si. He had never seen parents like that before.
Gu Mang seemed indifferent before giving him a mild audacious smile. “If I wanted the inheritance, would the Lei family be able to stop me?”
Lu Chengzhou glanced at her. She really was indifferent about the inheritance. The designer of Lan Ting who held 50% of the stock and therefore controlled half the company. The choreographer who was being hunted by all of the major agencies. It made sense that it wouldn’t matter much to her.
The fried noodles were served first. Gu Mang took the disposable chopsticks, split them apart, and slowly ate the noodles.
“Gu Mang,” a clear voice said.
She looked up. It was Meng Jinyang and Jiang Shenyuan. Qin Fang and He Yidu were there as well, and Ji Heng was not far behind.
The guys were about 1.8 meters tall and each one looked more handsome than the other. The other customers were all stunned.
Qin Fang carried two cups of milk tea and put them in front of Gu Mang as he said in quite a disapproving tone, “You’re eating barbecue with milk tea instead of beer?”
Lu Chengzhou didn’t comment as he poked the strawberry cup’s lid with a straw and passed it to Gu Mang.
Gu Mangl grabbed the cup, took a sip, and looked at Qin Fang. The pointed corner of her eyes exuded wildness with a look of nonchalance, “I can’t do that?”
Qin Fang immediately gave in. “Sure, of course you can. You’re the boss. Whatever you say.”
The stall owner ran a small business so he didn’t know what to do when meeting a bunch of higher class people. Was it his lucky day? Were these people celebrities?
Jiang Shenyuan looked at the stall owner, his hand in his pocket as he smiled politely. “Please give us another table.”
The stall owner nodded blankly, went to get two more folding tables. He put them beside Gu Mang’s table and wiped them clean once again.
He took a careful look at their expensive looking suits.
Countless pairs of eyes stared in their direction and tongues wagged.
“Damn, who are these people? They are all so good looking!”
“I know the watch on the man’s wrist. I think it’s about 20 million yuan!”
“What the f*ck? For real? A big shot like him eating at a street stall?”
“How can we mere mortals understand how these big shots think…”
…
Sitting at the tables was stifling. The stools were too short and the tables were too small. Any of the guys present could have flipped a hundred of such tables with a single kick.
Qin Fang snapped his fingers. “Boss, a jug of beer, three jins of small lobster, one hundred skewers of meat, ten skewers of chicken wings…”
Like a rich kid, he ordered a lot of food.
“Okay, okay, okay, coming right up.” The stall owner had a bright smile on his face. He was going to make a fortune tonight. His hands were trembling with excitement. He quickly added the items to the table’s bill.
He Yidu felt so embarrassed by the dummy Qin Fang he couldn’t help looking away from him.
He cocked his head slightly, lowered his voice, and said to Lu Chengzhou, “Brother Cheng, the official apology was posted on Weibo. Zhou Xintang was expelled from Experimental High School and the Royal Academy of Arts has also withdrawn her acceptance. Her family has also discreetly warned her not to act out again.”
