After the apocalypse boss Ye Weiwei's soul transmigrated, she became a love-brained supporting character with the same name in a book. The original Ye Weiwei was schemed against by her cousin, ...
Zuo Chenglong took a glass of wine and went on stage to give a speech. He said a few polite words, but found that the audience was indifferent and looked at him as if he were a monkey performing on stage. He was so angry that he left the stage with a dark face.
Ye Weiwei pulled Qin Xiao to get a plate and looked around at the food. The two of them each took a few of their favorite dishes, and then they found a table with Hua Ershao and the others to sit down and chat while eating.
Young Master Hua was a picky eater. He only ate a few bites before losing his appetite and complaining, "The chefs of the Green Dragon Gang are no good. This food is terrible."
After taking a few bites, Qin Xiao put down his chopsticks, looking like he had no appetite.
Having already witnessed the vegetables, grains, and fruits that his wife had grown using her supernatural abilities, he was now someone who had seen "big scenes." So even though he had gained a deep understanding of the word "luxury" in the past two days and seen how these people were so extravagant, he was still able to maintain his persona without changing his expression.
He married a fairy, how could he be compared to these ordinary mortals!
Seeing that Hua Ershao and Qin Xiao had put down their chopsticks, the people at the table also ate a few bites as a formality and then stopped eating.
Ye Weiwei looked at everyone and then at the table full of food, and sighed silently in her heart.
What a pity.
Zuo Chenglong came over with a wine glass to offer a toast, but seeing that the food on their table hadn't been touched much and that not a single person at the table was drinking, he frowned in annoyance.
"Ladies and gentlemen, on behalf of the Azure Dragon Gang, I thank you all for coming to support us today. I'd like to propose a toast to you all, bottoms up!"
After saying that, Zuo Chenglong tossed his head back and downed the large glass of wine in his hand, then showed everyone the bottom of the glass.
Qin Xiao watched him perform a one-man show without saying a word.
Hua Ershao remained silent.
Seeing that the two men were silent, the others also remained silent.
An eerie silence fell over the table.
Zuo Chenglong: ...
He was furious, but when he thought of his plan, he had to suppress his anger and force a smile to cover it up. He slapped his forehead, as if he had just realized something was wrong, and apologized to everyone: "Look at me, I was so confused. None of you have any drinks on your tables, so I've been drinking all by myself!"
"Big Black, hurry up and serve the wine to Young Master Yu and Second Young Master Hua. I'll offer another toast to the other young masters."
"Yes!" Big Black accepted the order and quickly brought drinks to everyone at the table, giving each person a cup.
When it came to Ye Weiwei's turn, Qin Xiao reached out and stopped her, saying, "She doesn't drink."
Zuo Chenglong immediately said solicitously, "Then go and get Miss Ellie a glass of juice."
Dahei hurried off, and when he returned, there was already a glass of juice on Ye Weiwei's table.
Zuo Chenglong raised his glass, offered another toast, and then tilted his head back and downed it again.
Qin Xiao remained silent, and Hua Ershao didn't chime in either. The others looked at each other, unsure of what to say.
An eerie silence fell over the atmosphere once again.
Zuo Chenglong could no longer contain his anger. He squinted at everyone with a cold face and asked, "What do you all mean by this? Are you disrespecting me, Zuo Chenglong, and looking down on our Green Dragon Gang?"
"Young Master Yu, are you determined to mess with the Green Dragon Gang today?"
Qin Xiao's cold, sharp eyes swept indifferently over Zuo Chenglong: "Wasn't it you, Young Master Zuo of the Green Dragon Gang, who insisted on keeping us here and wouldn't let us leave? Now you're turning around and blaming me?"
Zuo Chenglong was stung by the coldness in Qin Xiao's eyes, his mind cleared for a rare moment, and he felt inexplicably flustered. He said dryly, "I just felt that this was a rare opportunity and wanted to let Young Master Yu and Miss Ellie play together a little longer to build a relationship. After all, we will still need to cooperate with Mr. Smith frequently in the future."
Hearing Zuo Chenglong bring up Smith again, Qin Xiao's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "I really don't know what Mr. Smith was thinking, that he actually took a liking to your Green Dragon Gang!"
Seeing Qin Xiao's humiliation, Zuo Chenglong was in high spirits and blurted out, "Of course, it's because Mr. Smith has taken a liking to our Green Dragon Gang. Only our Green Dragon Gang can help Mr. Smith achieve his wish!"
Hua Sichen loved gossip the most, and since this gossip concerned Smith, he immediately asked, "What wish can you help Mr. Smith fulfill? Tell us!"
Zuo Chenglong: "Of course..."
He stopped abruptly, glancing around with lingering fear. Seeing everyone listening attentively, he finally felt relieved.
He almost revealed Mr. Smith's secret.
Luckily, he stopped in time!
Thank goodness!
With a displeased look, Zuo Chenglong coldly said, "There's no need for Second Young Master Hua to trouble himself with that."
Hua Sichen assumed that Zuo Chenglong was deliberately keeping everyone in suspense, and rolled her eyes in annoyance: "Fine, don't tell me then."
The others also spoke up to condemn Zuo Chenglong for keeping them in suspense, but Qin Xiao and Ye Weiwei exchanged a knowing glance.
After this commotion, the atmosphere at the table improved somewhat.
Zuo Chenglong picked up another glass of wine to offer a toast, and downed it all in one gulp.
After being toasted three times, it would be disrespectful to Zuo Chenglong if they didn't drink. So everyone looked at Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao picked up his wine glass, took a sip with an air of superiority, and then raised his glass to Zuo Chenglong.
Zuo Chenglong saw that the wine in the glass was only slightly reduced, narrowed his eyes, then gritted his teeth and forced a smile as he looked at the others.
Hua Sichen took a big gulp to save face, and the others followed suit and each drank half a cup.
Zuo Chenglong's expression softened somewhat.
After Zuo Chenglong left, Hua Sichen immediately asked Qin Xiao gossipy, "Young Master Yu, do you know what Smith's wish is?"
Qin Xiao shook his head. "I don't know."
Hua Sichen didn't doubt his words, but she was very surprised: "If even you don't know, how did Zuo Chenglong know? Judging from his appearance just now, he didn't seem to be bragging."
Qin Xiao snorted coldly: "Who knows how they got on Mr. Smith's good side? There are so many powerful families in Hong Kong, any one of them has a better reputation than the Green Dragon Gang. There's no reason for Mr. Smith to put aside his own interests and look to the Green Dragon Gang, which has a bad reputation and poor abilities."
Hua Sichen wholeheartedly agreed with Qin Xiao's words. He found it utterly ridiculous to see Zuo Chenglong running around the banquet hall like a host, offering toasts to everyone.
A young master of the prestigious Green Dragon Gang actually steals the job of a barmaid. No wonder he's from the Green Dragon Gang.
They're capable of doing the most shameless and unscrupulous things; it's utterly despicable!
Just as he was grumbling to himself, Hua Sichen suddenly felt a wave of dizziness and his vision blurred. He subconsciously shook his head, trying to shake off the feeling, but instead of shaking it off, he became even more dizzy. His head drooped and he collapsed onto the table.
