At this moment, Jiang Moyan was also in a dilemma. After all, he didn't want to eat the cloth, but it was still very difficult for him to make such a shameless decision as to break his promise in front of so many people...
"I think Brother Tian is right. How could an ordinary person like you know such advanced things? You're not worthy..."
After a moment's internal struggle, Jiang Moyan decided to side with the one hundred taels of gold, as it was the more advantageous option for him, and now he had to back out...
How do you know that my status is lower than yours?
Li Zhu asked rather rudely!
"Hmph! In this city of Luoyang, who can compare to Young Master Jiang in terms of prestige? There are only a handful of young people who can be considered to have a higher status than him, and these are all Young Master Jiang's friends. Don't flatter yourself. Kneel down and beg for mercy now, and we'll give you a chance to let you go..."
Young Master Tian, who possessed a hundred taels of gold, spoke arrogantly, proud of being Jiang Moyan's lackey!
"I don't think so. I've heard that Jiang Moyan bullied the young Crown Prince quite a bit along with the Second Prince. Now that the Second Prince has been sent to teach, do you think he's qualified to be the Crown Prince's friend?"
Li Zhu said in a sarcastic tone, which made the two men's faces turn ugly...
Jiang Moyan snorted coldly.
"So what? As long as my grandfather is alive, even the Crown Prince will have to treat the Jiang family with respect. At least I can get in touch with the Crown Prince. You're just a country bumpkin. Do you think you can use the Crown Prince to intimidate me?"
Li Zhu felt that under normal circumstances, Jiang Moyan's words were indeed correct, but now that he was the Crown Prince, they were actually discussing who was closer to the Crown Prince, and who could be closer to the Crown Prince?
"Maybe I have a very good relationship with the Crown Prince, so good that he would agree to anything I ask?"
Li Zhu felt incredibly satisfied being the sixth brother this time; this feeling of scheming and plotting was just too addictive…
"Are you still half asleep? Who do you think you are? You think you can get the Crown Prince to grant you anything? Take a good look at yourself in the mirror. You're just a country bumpkin who doesn't even dare to show his face. Do you know that the moment you hit Young Master Cui, you offended His Highness the Crown Prince?"
Young Master Tian retorted without any hesitation!
"Are your parents aware of how arrogant you are?"
Li Zhu looked at Young Master Tian with annoyance, thinking the man was crazy. He acted like a dog so matter-of-factly just to show off his superiority…
Most importantly, if you want to be a dog, have you asked your owner if they want you?
Jiang Moyan is indiscriminate in his pursuit of dogs, but he's different. Even if he were to adopt a dog, he'd only adopt a smart one. Someone like Young Master Tian, whose intelligence is truly astounding, is someone who dragged others down to their deaths without even realizing it…
"What do you mean?"
Young Master Tian frowned as he looked at Li Zhu, momentarily confused as to what Li Zhu was trying to say…
"What I mean is, your parents are calling you home for dinner..."
Li Zhu couldn't help but joke, "This IQ is really worrying..."
"Are you kidding me?"
"Looks like you'd be better off being hopelessly stupid, finally realizing I was just playing you..."
"You're asking for it!"
"You can't beat me, and you don't dare to make a move. This threat is useless. Try something else..."
Li Zhu said impatiently!
"You...you're shameless..."
"You lost and you're trying to cheat? When it comes to shamelessness, you're number one. Let's find someone else..."
"You...are arrogant..."
"Yeah, I'm just that arrogant. What can you do about it? If not, then let's try another one..."
"You...you're just a cowardly rat hiding in the shadows, too cowardly to even reveal your identity. To be in the same room as someone like you is an insult to us..."
"It's not that I'm afraid to reveal my identity; it's that I'm afraid you'll feel suicidal after you find out. After all, I'm an upright and pure person..."
Li Zhu spoke in a compassionate tone.
Jiang Moyan was taken aback. Why did that sentence sound so familiar? It was as if she had heard it somewhere before, but she couldn't quite place it...
"I'll give you one chance. Quickly eat this white cloth, or don't blame me for being impolite..."
Li Zhu issued an ultimatum to these people, and watching them lose face was indeed a pleasant experience!
"You cheated, so we won't honor this bet..."
Jiang Moyan said coldly!
"Miss Qinglu, it's up to you now..."
Li Zhu didn't want to waste any more words with them and let Qinglu handle it. After all, she had just said that she guaranteed these people would keep their promise...
Qinglu glanced at Li Zhu indifferently, thinking to herself, "Why are you asking me to do something that you can handle yourself?"
However, she had just made a promise, so it was naturally difficult to go back on her word. Therefore, he looked at Jiang Moyan and said...
"Young Master Jiang, a gentleman's word is as good as his bond. Since you've already agreed to the bet, I advise you to honor it, otherwise it won't look good for anyone..."
"Qinglu, I am a regular at Huayuelou. This stranger has only been here once. Are you sure you want to offend me for this person?"
He clearly cheated; he broke the rules first. I didn't hold him accountable, and now you're all ganging up on me? Did you even consult the owner of your Flower Moon Pavilion before doing this?
Jiang Moyan was determined to play dirty, but he was also confident in his ability to back up his business. He wasn't taking action at Huayuelou out of respect for his backer, but he had spent so much money there, making him one of Huayuelou's main sources of income. He didn't believe Huayuelou would be willing to give up such a big client.
“Young Master Jiang, a person cannot stand without integrity. Since you made a promise, you need to keep your word. This doesn’t conflict with whether you’re a regular customer here…”
Qinglu retorted, and her arguments were so logical and persuasive that Jiang Moyan's face turned extremely ugly, leaving him in a dilemma...
"Qinglu, you'd better get your boss out here and ask him if he's willing to offend me..."
Jiang Moyan didn't care about honesty or dishonesty. If he actually ate the cloth, putting aside the shame, it could be fatal. After all, it was impossible to digest such a large piece. He was just joking and never intended to keep the bet.
"You don't need to worry about that. I'm warning you from the perspective of the employer, so... honor the bet..."
Upon hearing Qinglu's words, Jiang Moyan's expression changed repeatedly...
"I was just saying that casually, so I don't have to fulfill the bet, right?"
Seeing that his boss had already given up, Young Master Tian saw no need to put up a fight. He chose life over face and wanted to back out and refuse to eat the white cloth!
What do you think?
Li Zhu stared coldly at him. This brat had been barking the loudest just now; how could he let him off so easily…
"Young Master Jiang, what should we do now?"
Young Master Tian was having such a blast just now, and now he's regretting it terribly. It wasn't his business at all, but he had to get involved...
