Chapter 577 Everyone Watching the Show

What are you doing here?!

When Feng Gan saw Tang Qiwen, he looked as if he had seen a ghost. Before he even reached the counter, he turned around and ran away, appearing somewhat guilty.

Wan Qiqi glanced at Wu Gousheng.

Wu Gousheng understood, rushed to Feng Gan in a few steps, grabbed Feng Gan by the neck and pushed him inside.

Feng Gan attempted to retaliate.

Before they could even make a move, Wu Gousheng whispered, "Don't ruin Sister Qi's plans, or you'll lose your money!"

Feng Gan was inwardly furious. He glared at Wu Gousheng, shook off Wu Gousheng's hand, and swaggered inside, smiling as he said, "Brother Tang, long time no see. What are you doing here?"

Tang Qiwen glared at Feng Gan as if he wanted to tear him to pieces.

Feng Gan was a little annoyed. Even if he had set him up to fall into the water and then partnered with Wan Qiqi to open a restaurant, Tang Qiwen shouldn't be looking at him like that, right?

The culprit stood to the side, a wicked smile curving his lips.

"Young Master Feng, you and Young Master Tang are old friends and have a good relationship. You should at least invite him to have a few drinks to show your hospitality, right? There are still some empty private rooms on the third floor. Why don't you invite Young Master Tang up for a seat?"

Wan Qiqi was quite enthusiastic, her face beaming with a bright smile.

Feng Gan turned his head and stared at Wan Qiqi, winking and making faces, wanting Wan Qiqi to explain what was going on.

Wan Qiqi raised an eyebrow, indicating that she would just do as she pleased.

Feng Gan: "..."

He really wanted to find someone to beat up Wan Qiqi to vent his hatred.

But think about it, spending 10,000 yuan is equivalent to giving away one's own money.

Given Wan Qiqi's personality, after being beaten, she would not only fight back but also kick him out of Xinglong Restaurant.

No matter how you look at it, this doesn't seem like a good deal.

Feng Gan gritted his teeth and laughed, "That's right, Brother Tang, it's been a while since we last met, we should at least have a couple of drinks. This is my first time doing business, Brother Tang, please do me the honor?"

He reached out to put his hand on Tang Qiwen's shoulder, but before his hand even touched him, he was slapped.

Tang Qiwen looked at the two men warily, seemingly trying to figure out what they were up to.

After a long pause, he smiled gently and said, "Very well, the two owners of Xinglong Restaurant have extended such a warm invitation. If I were to refuse again, I would be letting them down!"

Tang Qiwen thought about his current status. Although he was not an official, he was still a government employee.

If he gets into trouble at Xinglong Restaurant, this could be used as leverage to send him to jail.

Try communicating with that person again, offer her some benefits, and let the people in jail torture her so that she can never cause trouble again.

If she dies in prison, that's her fate; if she doesn't die, she can be sold to a brothel after she gets out and ridden by thousands of men—that would be the only way to vent my anger!

Tang Qiwen was unaware that the smile on his face had already betrayed him.

Wan Qiqi didn't even need to think much to know what this person was probably planning, but she wouldn't let him have his way.

Soon, the person was taken to the third floor, along with Feng Gan, to enjoy VIP treatment.

Wu Gousheng looked up, then turned his head and asked, "Sis, what exactly are you going to do?"

"We won't do anything, let Tang Qiwen teach us a lesson!" Wan Qiqi tilted her head, in a good mood, seemingly satisfied with the current arrangement.

“He can’t ignore any of these things: delivery services, wasteland, or the prestigious academy. Since he dared to do such underhanded things, he must bear the consequences.”

Wan Qiqi glanced at him, turned around and walked to the counter to discuss the accounts with Zhu Youcai.

Wu Gousheng recalled the information he had gathered over the past few months.

Tang Qiwen was involved in fueling the food delivery frenzy; the withering of vegetables in the wasteland was orchestrated by Tang Qiwen bribing villagers; Tang Qiwen was also involved in the closure of Jingjing Academy and the instigation of students' families to cause trouble…

If it weren't for Sister Qi's secret planning, perhaps no clues would have been found, and Tang Qiwen might have truly changed.

But clearly, Tang Qiwen is not the kind of person who swallows his anger.

Could Tang Qiwen have also been involved in the Niuyi incident?

After thinking it over carefully, Wu Gousheng decided to give Lei Zi and Hong Tian a few words of advice and keep an eye on Niu Yi to prevent him from secretly causing trouble and ruining the business of Xinglong Restaurant.

After Wan Qiqi arranged for Tang Qiwen and Feng Gan to go upstairs, she did nothing else and instructed Erpang to take good care of them, which puzzled many people.

Inviting people to a private room and serving them good food and drink—was it really Tang Qiwen?

Even Wu Gousheng was puzzled and asked, "Sister Qi, what exactly are you planning to do?"

"Wait, wait for a good show. Two people are already in position, one more is needed." Wan Qiqi's eyes curved into a smile that was dangerous.

"What play? What kind of actors are they missing?" Wu Gousheng was a little confused.

Just then, a person walked in at the entrance of the restaurant, causing Wu Gousheng's expression to change drastically. "Sister Qi, I'm going to find Manager Zhu. You must be careful!"

He said he was going to run away, but Wan Qiqi grabbed his arm.

"Everyone's here, the show's about to begin!" Wan Qiqi smiled, tilting her head.

Wu Gousheng felt that Wan Qiqi's smile was somewhat sinister and frightening, like a flower covered with thorns, beautiful but untouchable.

"Young Master Xiao, you're here again? What would you like to eat today?" Wan Qiqi greeted him with a smile, showing a slightly enthusiastic attitude.

Xiao Huai glanced at Wan Qiqi from head to toe, sneered, and waved his folding fan, saying, "Welcoming me so warmly today, aren't you afraid of me?"

"Guests are guests, and I cannot and will not turn you away. I can only serve you well. I hope that Young Master Xiao will be a little kinder to the restaurant and not scare away its customers!"

Wan Qiqi looked obedient.

"So it's up to you now?" Xiao Huai gently lifted Wan Qiqi's chin with his folding fan, a smile playing on his lips. "You'll have to make everything yourself today. I won't have anyone watching over it. Don't try anything funny, or else..."
