After being stunned for several seconds, the waiter said in a businesslike tone, "Sir, you're joking. This is a high-end restaurant and we never take credit."
"I forgot to bring money when I went out. I will come over in a few days... No! I will come over tomorrow to settle the bill." Ye Haozhou wanted to give it another try.
"You don't want to dine and dash, do you?" The waiter looked at Ye Haozhou with a strange look.
"Who the hell is eating and running? Watch your words. Do you know who I am? I am the young master of the Ye family, one of the four major families in Yangcheng. Do I need to eat and run?" Ye Haozhou said angrily.
Ye Haozhou's voice was so loud that all the guests in the restaurant were startled and looked over.
"What's going on?" At this time, a man dressed as a manager came over and asked.
The waiter immediately reported the incident to the manager.
When the manager heard that someone wanted to dine and dash, his face darkened.
But he was the manager after all, and judging by Ye Haozhou's attire, he didn't look like someone who was here to dine for free, so he smiled and said in a polite but somewhat stiff tone, "Hello, sir, I'm the manager of this restaurant. We don't have a policy of accepting orders on credit. Why don't you ask a friend to come over and pick up the bill for you? To express my apology, I can give you a discount later."
As expected of a manager, he speaks with great skill.
It not only reflects the service attitude, but also emphasizes the restaurant's rules.
Seeing that the other party's attitude was acceptable, Ye Haozhou snorted coldly and took out his cell phone.
But he called several times in a row and no one answered.
The manager's smiling face had completely darkened.
"Sir, do you have any other friends? Or you can call your family."
Ye Haozhou also wanted to call home, but when he thought about how he had just run away from home two days ago, wouldn’t it be too embarrassing to call back for help now?
"Isn't it just a mere 90,000 yuan? Don't make it seem like I can't afford it. I come here to eat because I respect you, and you treat me like this? Believe it or not, with just one phone call from me, you can forget about opening this restaurant in the future?" Ye Haozhou said with a red face.
"Yes, yes, in that case, please settle the bill now." The manager sneered with disdain.
Everyone can brag, but you should pay for it.
While the manager was saying these words, several waiters had already quietly gathered around him.
"I……"
Ye Haozhou's face looked extremely ugly, but he was used to being arrogant, so how could he accept being looked down upon like this?
He cursed loudly, "How dare you talk to me like that? I'm the eldest son of the Ye family. How could I possibly owe you a small amount of money? You'd better apologize to me immediately, otherwise I will definitely pursue this matter to the end."
"Sir, please calm down. This is a high-end restaurant and we generally do not recommend using violence to solve problems." The manager said calmly.
"I am violent, so what? Hit me!" Perhaps Ye Haozhou felt that this sentence was not deterrent enough, so he overturned the table.
This action was like throwing a match into a powder keg. A group of waiters rushed forward, surrounded Ye Haozhou and started beating him.
The manager smiled and explained to the other diners, "Don't get me wrong, this is a high-end restaurant. We generally don't recommend using violence to resolve issues, unless... the other party requests it."

Mo Laishi naturally had no idea about Ye Haozhou's miserable condition. By the time he finished seeing the last patient in the morning, it was already time for lunch.
"Mr. Huang, do you have something to say to me?" Mo Laishi saw that Huang Qishan seemed a little abnormal all morning and seemed to want to say something but stopped himself several times, so he asked.
"Doctor Mo... Doctor Mo, my injury has almost healed, I think..." Huang Qishan hesitated, but never finished his words.
Mo Laishi roughly guessed what Huang Qishan wanted to say and said with a smile: "Since your injury has healed, let's leave for Xiangnan this afternoon. If we go fast, we can still make it back for a midnight snack in the evening."
Huang Qishan raised his head suddenly, and his eyes turned red instantly.
Doctor Mo had indeed promised him that he would help him rescue his granddaughter, but at that time Huang Qishan only thought that Mo Laishi was comforting him and coaxing him to heal his injuries.
He had actually made up his mind. Even without Dr. Mo's help, he would go and rescue his granddaughter by himself, even if it meant risking his life.
But now that he heard that Dr. Mo was willing to help him and leave right away, how could he not be moved?
"Sister Xiaorong, Mr. Huang and I have to go on a business trip, so we won't have lunch. If anyone comes to see a doctor in the afternoon, please ask them to come back tomorrow." Mo Laishi picked up the cloth bag and shouted to Zhang Xiaorong who was busy in the kitchen.
"Why don't you eat now? The meal is ready, why don't you eat first?"
When Zhang Xiaorong came out of the kitchen, Mo Laishi had already left with Huang Qishan.
Southern Hunan is not far from Guangdong Province. It only takes two hours to get there by high-speed rail.
Morais and Huangqishan had lunch on the high-speed train. After Morais finished two boxes, he realized that Huangqishan's portion was basically untouched.
"Mr. Huang, why don't you eat? Even though the food on the high-speed train is expensive and tastes terrible, it's still better than going on an empty stomach."
"Oh... I have no appetite when I think about my granddaughter who is not well fed and clothed." Huang Qishan sighed.
"Don't worry, now that I'm here, I will definitely help you rescue your granddaughter." Mo Laishi gave Huang Qishan a reassurance.
Huang Qishan looked at Mo Laishi's sincere eyes and nodded heavily.

Baifeng Town, southern Hunan, Situ Manor.
This is a manor away from the hustle and bustle and in a quiet environment.
It is said that it was originally built by a warlord during the Republic of China period, and later for some unknown reason it fell into the hands of the Situ family.
At this time, the Situ family was having dinner in the manor hall.
Mr. Situ came back late today, so the family waited until now to have lunch.
"Grandpa, did you get any accurate news when you went to the Ancient Martial Arts Association's meeting this time?" After the family sat down, Situ Hua couldn't wait to ask an old man in a Tang suit.
The old man nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Well, the once-in-a-decade ancient martial arts event is about to begin. It is scheduled for the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. This time, our Situ family has also obtained a quota. Hua'er, this is a good opportunity for you to stand out. You must seize it well."
The old man was the old man of the Situ family and the person with the most say in the entire Situ family, Situ Xiu.
Upon hearing this, Situ Hua's eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "Don't worry, Grandpa. I've been practicing martial arts for so many years and have mastered the essence of the Southern Fist and the Northern Leg. I will definitely be able to take first place in this ancient martial arts event and bring honor to our Situ family."
As Situ Hua said this, he glanced disdainfully at the 4-year-old girl in the corner who was chained and treated like a dog.
