Name: Zhen Sh...
Chapter 31 Getting Beaten
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, you mean..."
Ding Lanlan swallowed.
Is it his illusion?
Why do I feel that His Majesty is a little sinister now?
However, in his heart he still felt that this sinister Majesty in front of him was very good?
I, Shao Yuan, winked at them and said to the waiter, "All the food ordered in the private room has been paid. If people in other rooms need to order additional drinks, they can place their orders according to the private room prices. But when you ask, it's best to ask in a roundabout way. My classmate is very proud."
"Okay, Mr. Zhen."
The waiter understood what Shao Yuan meant and then stepped out.
"When did you pay the bill? Why didn't I see it?" Yu Shan asked Zhen Shao Yuan with wide eyes. Zhen Shao Yuan had been sitting here the whole time, so how could he have paid the bill?
"After ordering, the money has been deducted from the membership card."
Of course, I, Shao Yuan, would not say that just now, he had already confirmed the use of the free coupon.
Once the free coupon is confirmed, the system will pay for all the consumption in the five private rooms.
"Do you still have the membership card of the ancient building?"
Yu Shan slapped his forehead as he finished speaking. "Look at me! If you didn't have a membership card, you wouldn't have been able to reserve this big private room. This is good. I should teach Guo Donglai a lesson."
Ding Lanlan said with a smile, "The lesson of one hundred thousand yuan should be enough for him to remember deeply."
"Your Majesty, did Guo Donglai offend you?" Gao Fei asked.
An imperceptible fierce light flashed in his eyes.
Zhou Jie, who was standing by, also said, "Brother, do you want to teach Guo Donglai a lesson?"
Zhou Jie actually didn't expect that Shao Yuan would invite him to dinner.
But since I, Shao Yuan, have invited him to dinner, I think I, Shao Yuan, am willing to make friends with him.
Then of course Jay Chou has to express his opinion.
Si Yi also looked at Zhen Shao Yuan silently without saying anything.
I, Shao Yuan, said with a smile, "What are you doing? We are civilized people, so of course we should solve the problem in a civilized way. My food is not that delicious."
A hundred thousand worth of peach blossoms, it all depends on whether Guo Donglai dares to order it.
"He agreed?"
When Guo Donglai ordered a bottle of Taohuachun wine, the waiter said he needed to ask the owner of the private room.
He thought that I, Shao Yuan, would not agree.
I didn't expect him to agree.
The waiter said, "Yes, but this bottle of wine is not included in the meal in the private room and needs to be paid for separately. Excuse me, sir, are you sure you want to place the order?"
The waiter remembered that Shao Yuan had said not to be so direct when asking questions.
Therefore, he couldn't directly say that Taohuachun was very expensive.
"certainly."
Guo Donglai heard clearly what the waiter said.
He thought that the waiter meant that the price of the meal did not include the cost of the wine.
If you need to order wine, you will need to pay extra.
Since I, Shao Yuan, have agreed to pay the bill, Guo Donglai will of course place the order.
Although other students thought Guo Donglai was going too far, since I, Shao Yuan, had agreed.
They didn't know what to say.
After getting Guo Donglai's affirmative answer, the waiter brought him the Taohuachun tea he wanted.
Taohuachun is one of the top national liquors of the Han Dynasty.
This tea is brewed from the freshest peach blossoms picked in March and April every spring.
Taohuachun has a mellow taste. After drinking it, your mouth will be filled with the refreshing fragrance of peach blossoms.
The best feature of this wine is that it won’t give you a headache after drinking it.
Even if you drink too much, you will get drunk but you won’t get a headache.
Even when brewing, because some nourishing herbs are added, it actually has the effect of strengthening the body.
The brewing process of Taohuachun is relatively complicated, and the annual shipment volume is very small.
So, the price is very expensive.
A bottle of Taohuachun weighs only 1 kilogram, but its selling price has reached 100,000 yuan.
Moreover, the price of 100,000 is still the unified sales price.
The selling price is the same no matter which high-end restaurant or hotel you go to.
After the waiter confirmed with Guo Donglai, he placed the order for him.
Then Taohuachun was sent over.
As soon as the Peach Blossom Spring is opened, the whole private room is filled with the fragrance of peach blossoms.
Many people looked at the bottle of wine in Guo Donglai's hand.
“It smells so good!”
"Yeah, no wonder it's called Peach Blossom Spring. A hundred thousand yuan bottle of wine is indeed unique."
"I've never seen such expensive wine in my life. This is the first time I've seen it."
"Since I, Shao Yuan, have agreed to let Guo Donglai order this wine, what do you think? Should we order a bottle to try as well?"
"Forget it. That wine is too expensive. It's good enough to be able to come for this meal. Don't be so rip-off."
Guo Donglai saw the greedy looks from the people around him.
I couldn't help but sneer in my heart.
A bunch of cowards.
"Xiao Miao, come, let's drink."
Guo Donglai has not forgotten his financial backer.
He poured a glass for Zhang Miao first.
Zhang Miao saw Guo Donglai pouring wine for her personally and said shyly, "Thank you."
Guo Donglai blamed her, "We are already boyfriend and girlfriend, isn't it my duty to pour you some wine? Why are you being so distant? Don't do this again in the future."
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Zhang Miao looked at the handsome Guo Donglai, and his heart felt as sweet as honey.
The people around were too embarrassed to watch and all turned their faces away, pretending not to see.
There is no way. Some people are blind and there is really no cure.
Another female classmate next to Zhang Shuiqing looked at Guo Donglai and Zhang Miao showing their affection and curled her lips in disdain.
Then he leaned over and asked Zhang Shuiqing, "Shuiqing, how about we go to the private room next door and have dinner with Zhen Shaoyuan. I can't eat just looking at the two of them here."
Another female classmate also echoed: "Yes, I urgently need His Majesty's handsome face to cleanse my eyes."
"This is not a good idea." Zhang Shuiqing actually wanted to leave.
However, because she believed what Guo Donglai said before, she distanced herself from me, Shao Yuan.
My relationship with me, Shao Yuan, is worse than when we first met.
"What's wrong with that? You are the true beauty of our class. That Zhang Miao is nothing. I don't believe that I, Shao Yuan, can reject you."
"Oh well."
Zhang Shuiqing hesitated for a moment, then stood up with her bag.
The other two girls also stood up with their bags.
The others saw it and couldn't help asking, "Shuiqing, where are you going?"
One of the female classmates said, "Oh, let's go to the bathroom."
Then the three of them left the private room.
No one else thought it was strange. After all, girls like to go to the bathroom in groups.
In the private room, only Zhang Miao and a female classmate who had a good relationship with Zhang Miao were left.
The others are all male classmates.
Zhang Shuiqing and the other two pushed open the door of Shao Yuan's private room.
When I, Shao Yuan, saw the three of them, I raised my eyebrows and asked, "Why are you here? Is there something wrong?"
I came here so presumptuously and saw two unfamiliar faces in this private room of mine, Shao Yuan.
Zhang Shuiqing felt a little embarrassed. "Um, sorry, did we disturb you?"
It was originally just a polite remark, but unexpectedly, I, Shao Yuan, nodded directly and said, "Yes, I am indeed disturbing you. So, what can I do for you?"
I, Shao Yuan, gave Si Yi a subtle look, and Si Yi immediately moved the phone away.
Don’t let your mobile phone take pictures of Zhang Shuiqing and the other three.
There was no meaning in what Shao Yuan said. He was broadcasting live now, and the three people coming in did disturb his live broadcast.
However, when Shao Yuan said this, Zhang Shuiqing and the other two were stunned.
They didn't expect that I, Shao Yuan, would be so direct.
The tone of my Shao Yuan was actually very normal, and he didn't mean to be angry.
There is no dissatisfaction at all.
But it was such a calm and somewhat distant tone that made the three of them feel a little embarrassed.
"It's okay, sorry to bother you."
Even if Zhang Shuiqing and the other two were ashamed as they could be, they would not be able to stay any longer.
He turned and left dejectedly.
Ding Lanlan and Yu Shan gave Shao Yuan a thumbs up.
He is indeed worthy of being called a peach blossom killer.
The peach blossoms haven't even bloomed yet, but they've been strangled.
Zhang Shuiqing and the other two felt very embarrassed, so after returning to the original private room, they didn't say anything and just lowered their heads to eat in silence.
The meal took over an hour.
While eating, Shao Yuan introduced the dishes to the fans in the live broadcast room.
So I eat slowly.
He had finished his meal, but still no one asked him to help buy things.
I, Shao Yuan, feel somewhat helpless.
But he was not discouraged, because he knew that the food in Gulou was not cheap.
For those who can afford it, wouldn’t it be better to eat at Gulou?
Why ask someone to help you buy things?
For those who can’t afford to eat out, wouldn’t it be better to order takeout?
Therefore, I, Shao Yuan, had actually foreseen this result a long time ago.
However, it was not without gain.
At the very least, during the more than one-hour live broadcast, the number of Zhen Shao Yuan's fans increased to more than five thousand.
And even after Zhen Shao Yuan stopped the live broadcast, the number continued to rise.
Guo Donglai and his friends went to the private room, and because there were so many people, they ate a little faster.
When they had almost finished eating, Guo Donglai asked someone to bring him another bottle of Taohuachun to take away.
When he was about to leave with Taohuachun, he was stopped in the lobby.
The waiter who stopped Guo Donglai said to him, "Mr. Guo, you haven't paid the bill yet."
Guo Donglai asked doubtfully, "Pay the bill? What bill?"
The waiter handed Guo Donglai a receipt. "Mr. Guo, this is your drink bill. You ordered two bottles of Taohuachun, totaling 200,000 yuan. Would you like to pay by card, cash, or by scanning a QR code?"
Guo Donglai was shocked. "Didn't they say that I, Shao Yuan, would pay for it? Why would they let me pay for it?"
Zhang Miao, who was standing by, was also surprised and said, "Yes, it's Shao Yuan who's treating us to dinner this time. If you want to pay, you should ask him to pay. Why would you ask my boyfriend? Did you make a mistake?"
The waiter said, "Mr. Guo, that's correct. Your friend's bill has already been paid for. This bill is for the drinks you need to pay for separately."
"What a joke! He was supposed to pay for this meal. Why did he ask me to pay for it?"
"I am Shao Yuan, where am I, Shao Yuan?"
Two hundred thousand! How could Guo Donglai possibly afford it?
Start looking for me, Shao Yuan, immediately.
The students who were originally preparing to leave saw that something seemed to have happened, and they all stood in the lobby to watch the show.
Coincidentally, Shao Yuan, Ding Lanlan and others came out of the private room.
I heard Guo Donglai's shouting.
"I know my name sounds nice, but Guo Donglai, you don't have to shout so loudly. This is a public place after all, so a little more decorum is recommended."
Shao Yuan, Ding Lanlan and others walked through the crowd and came in front of Guo Donglai.
Seeing Shao Yuan coming, Guo Donglai immediately stepped forward and wanted to reach out and grab Shao Yuan's clothes.
However, Si Yi was like a city wall, blocking me, Shao Yuan.
Si Yi is 1.95 meters tall, 20 centimeters taller than Guo Donglai.
"Mr. Guo, please don't touch me while we're talking. Our young master is very noble, and not just anyone can touch him."
Although he still had a smug smile on his face.
However, the sharpness in his eyes was like a knife placed on Guo Donglai's neck.
Guo Donglai froze in place.
Damn it, how could he be scared by a man's eyes.
Guo Donglai gritted his teeth and shouted to Zhen Shao Yuan behind Si Yi, "Zhen Shao Yuan, what do you mean by this? Do you think you can get away with hiding behind this person? If you are a man, stand up and don't hide behind others."
"When did I hide behind someone? My housekeeper is just preventing you from doing anything to me."
I, Shao Yuan, patted Si Yi's shoulder, "Si Yi."
Si Yi understood and stood aside.
I, Shao Yuan, put my hands behind my back and looked at Guo Donglai. "What's the matter? Tell me."
Holding the bottle of Peach Blossom Spring in his hand, Guo Donglai angrily said, "I, Shao Yuan, didn't we agree that you would treat me to dinner? Now you're asking me to pay, what does that mean?"
Zhen Shao Yuan looked innocent and said, "I did ask for dinner, so I paid for it."
"Then why do they want me to pay for the wine?" Guo Donglai raised the Taohuachun in his hand.
"I think I only said I'd treat you to a meal, but never said I'd treat you to a drink, right?" I, Shao Yuan, sneered.
Guo Donglai's eyes widened. "I, Shao Yuan, what do you mean?"
"Literally." Zhen Shao Yuan said to the waitress beside him, "Beautiful lady, I suggest you quickly ask your manager to come over. After all, you probably can't handle the situation where someone is drinking alcohol."
When the waiter saw this, he knew that this was going to be troublesome.
The manager was called over immediately.
The manager came and learned what had happened.
His face darkened immediately, and he said to Guo Donglai, "Sir, when you ordered this Peach Blossom Spring, our waiter informed you that you would need to pay for the wine separately. Now you've drunk the wine, but you're unwilling to pay. Do you want to drink the King's wine?"
"No, it was clearly agreed that he would pay the bill." Guo Donglai pointed at Zhen Shao Yuan. He saw more and more people gathering around him and became a little panicked.
"I paid for it." Zhen Shao Yuan spread his hands. "I said I'd treat you to dinner. Five private rooms, 590,000 yuan for the meal, I've already paid for it. But the wine you drink and take away is your own business. This Taohuachun is limited, and I even gave you my quota. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to buy this wine in my name."
I, Shao Yuan, acted as if Guo Donglai had taken advantage of him.
Guo Donglai pointed at Zhen Shao Yuan, his face full of disbelief, "Are you trying to trick me?"
"Haha, you're really Zhu Bajie, you're just blaming me. Our Majesty kindly invited you to dinner, but now you're accusing him of plotting against you."
Yu Shan grabbed Zhen Shao Yuan and said, "Forget it, Your Majesty. There's no need to waste time talking to him. You've already paid for the meal. Let him handle the rest. Let's go."
"You're not allowed to leave."
Guo Donglai simply opened his arms and stood in front of them.
"I, Shao Yuan, you go back on your word. If you don't resolve this matter today, no one can leave."
"Our young master wants to leave, and no one can stop him. Manager, what do you think?" Si Yi looked indifferently at the lobby manager beside him.
The lobby manager was immediately startled and said respectfully, "Yes, Mr. Zhen has already paid. This matter has nothing to do with Mr. Zhen. We welcome Mr. Zhen to visit us next time."
I, Shao Yuan, always feel that this manager's attitude is a little strange.
Just now he was acting as if he wouldn't let them leave, but now his attitude suddenly changed so quickly.
But never mind.
"Then my classmates..."
I, Shao Yuan, pointed at the other students who came to eat.
The manager smiled and said, "Mr. Zhen's classmates can of course leave. As long as Mr. Guo stays, that's all."
"Okay, let's go."
Seeing that Shao Yuan was about to leave, Guo Donglai became anxious.
"Manager, you can't let him go."
However, the manager pointed at Guo Donglai and shouted to the security guard nearby: "Stop him."
In the end, Guo Donglai could only watch Shao Yuan and others leave.
The other students also left quickly, fearing that if they stayed, they would be mistaken for Guo Donglai's accomplices and asked to pay money together.
The students who were hesitating whether to order wine while eating just now looked relieved.
Fortunately, they restrained themselves and were not as greedy as Guo Donglai.
Otherwise, I would probably be detained here now.
Even Guo Donglai's three roommates slipped away.
Dozens of people left in a short while.
"Xiao Miao, how about we go too?"
The female classmate who had a good relationship with Zhang Miao grabbed Zhang Miao's hand. Seeing that everyone else had left, she also wanted to leave.
Zhang Miao shook her hand off and hugged Guo Donglai's arm. "No, Donglai is my boyfriend. How can I leave? If you want to leave, go by yourself. I want to stand by him."
"Xiao Miao, you..."
Seeing Zhang Miao still so stubborn, the female classmate said angrily, "If that's the case, then you can stay here by yourself."
After saying that, the female classmate left angrily.
Zhang Miao was very sad to see that his good friend had left him behind.
Guo Donglai looked at Zhang Miao with a touching expression, "Dear, you are indeed the one who treats me the best and loves me the most. Darling, promise me that you will never leave me."
Guo Donglai's word "dear" instantly made Zhang Miao forget the loss he felt when his friend abandoned him.
Now her eyes were full of Guo Donglai, and she could not see anyone else.
"Don't worry, Donglai, you are my boyfriend, I will never leave you."
After saying that, Zhang Miao leaned his rather large body against Guo Donglai, trying to act like a little bird relying on its man.
Guo Donglai staggered and almost fell.
The manager standing by couldn't stand it any longer. "Hey, you two, if you want to be intimate, please pay the bill and then go out and do it. This is a restaurant, not a hotel. If you don't pay, I'll have to call the police."
“You can’t call the police.”
Guo Donglai stopped the export almost immediately.
He also knew that if he couldn't come up with the money for the wine this time, the matter would definitely not end well.
He could only look at Zhang Miao for help, "Well, dear, you saw it too. I was fooled by Shao Yuan. They won't let us leave without money. Can you pay me first and then pay you back when I get back?"
Let her give it?
The expression on Zhang Miao's face froze for a moment.
She doesn’t have that much money now!
However, when Zhang Miao saw Guo Donglai looking at him expectantly, he couldn't bear to refuse him.
It seems that I can only call my father and ask him to send money.
When Mr. Zhang heard that his daughter was detained in Gulou, he did not send any money, but asked the driver to drive over directly.
When they arrived at the ancient building and learned what had happened, Mr. Zhang's face turned black.
Guo Donglai didn't expect that the first time he met his future father-in-law would be so embarrassing and awkward.
"Manager Gao, I'll pay the 200,000 yuan."
"Mr. Zhang, you are too polite. I'm sorry, I didn't know this lady was your daughter."
The store manager of Gulou knows Mr. Zhang.
Whenever Mr. Zhang entertains important guests, he always comes to the ancient building.
So he not only became a senior member of Gulou, but also got to know the store manager of Gulou.
"Uncle, this bottle of wine of mine hasn't been opened yet. You can return it."
Guo Donglai wanted to return the bottle of wine in his hand to make a good impression on Zhang's father.
However, what he didn't know was that if he didn't mention the bottle of wine, it would be fine. As soon as he mentioned the bottle of wine, Zhang's father's face became even darker.
Manager Gao said to Guo Donglai, "Sir, I'm sorry, but we don't accept returns for drinks you've already paid for, unless there's a quality issue. However, if it's inconvenient for you to take it away, we can provide you with free wine storage. Next time you come and book a private room, you can still drink it."
Private room?
Guo Donglai felt that he would never come here again in his life.
Because it's so embarrassing.
After leaving the ancient building, Father Zhang said to the driver who followed him, "Take Xiao Miao in the car first. I have something to talk to this young man in private."
"Dad, is there anything you say that even I can't listen to?" Zhang Miao was worried about Guo Donglai. She was afraid that her father would bully Guo Donglai.
"take away."
Father Zhang said coldly.
The driver immediately pulled Zhang Miao into the car regardless of her struggle and locked the door.
After seeing his daughter being taken into the car, Mr. Zhang turned around and looked at Guo Donglai with a dark face.
"Uncle...ah..."
Before Guo Donglai could finish his words, a fist hit him in the face.
Guo Donglai was knocked to the ground by the punch, and the bottle of Taohuachun in his hand fell to the ground with a "bang", and the light pink wine spilled on the road.
The strong aroma of peach blossoms emanated from the wine.
Before Guo Donglai, who was lying on the ground, could react, Father Zhang immediately stepped forward, grabbed his collar, pulled him up from the ground, and then punched Guo Donglai in the stomach again.
This punch made Guo Donglai feel like his internal organs were about to be shattered.
Father Zhang threw him to the ground as if he were throwing away garbage.
"Don't hit him, Dad. Don't hit him."
In the car, Zhang Miao saw that his father actually beat Guo Donglai, and he shouted excitedly and banged on the car window.
But the car door was locked and she couldn't get out.
I could only watch Guo Donglai being beaten with tears in my eyes.
Father Zhang glanced at Guo Donglai, who was curled up on the ground and trembling in pain, and then looked at the broken wine bottle on the ground.
He said coldly, "Those two hundred thousand will be my medical expenses. Young man, if I find you harassing my daughter again, next time, it won't be as simple as two punches. I will cripple you directly. If you don't believe me, you can try it yourself."
After saying that, Mr. Zhang got into the car, held down the excited Zhang Miao, and asked the driver to drive away.
This scene happened to be seen by Zhen Shao Yuan and others who were standing in the car not far away.
I, Shao Yuan, said to Si Yi who was in the driver's seat, "The show is over, Si Yi, let's go."
"No, Your Majesty, how did you know Guo Donglai would deliberately order the most expensive wine? And how did you know that Zhang Miao's father would come and beat Guo Donglai up?"
Ding Lanlan was really curious.
Yu Shan was also full of curiosity. "Yes, Your Majesty, I feel like you already knew that Guo Donglai would be beaten. So you let us wait here and watch the show."
I, Shao Yuan, placed my index finger between my lips, made a "hush" sound, and said mysteriously to the two of them, "This is a secret."
