Chapter 1861 - 1863: Pushed Too Far
Chapter 1861: Chapter 1863: Pushed Too Far
Shen Rong started as a penniless hoodlum and has clawed his way up to today’s achievements, relying not just on luck, but also his own hard work and shrewdness. One particularly strong point is his sensitivity to danger.
Before the Liberation, he dared to survive under the Japanese devils and reach today’s status because of his acute sensitivity to danger.
Today, right in front of him, he sensed danger. This young man in his thirties made him, an old man in his seventies, feel threatened.
Shen Rong suddenly had a thought of retreat.
Is it because I’m getting old?
The sharpness in Ning Ge’s eyes flashed for just a moment, as if it was an illusion. Now he seemed like a carefree, dissolute scion, typical of the profligate offspring of the wealthy.
He had his hands in his pockets as he glanced at Zhou Jun. Zhou Jun, an even more dissolute scion than Ning Ge, jumped out, pointing at his business partner and questioning: "Zhang Guangzi, what the hell! We’re all here supporting your cousin, why didn’t you have him put up a sign earlier saying ’No dogs and mistresses allowed’? It’s disgusting. Some people are shameless and despicable, only good at slandering others. If you want to eat in the same restaurant as someone like me, I won’t accept it!"
The partner referred to as Zhang Guangzi smiled bitterly and looked at his cousin who had already come out to greet them. What did he do to deserve this, running into Chiang Qing of all people?
Back then, Zhou Jun was publicly humiliated by Chiang Qing, and it caused quite a stir. Even Chiang Qing’s parents were criticized by Old Lady Zhou. Who wasn’t aware of this? Now, with Zhou Jun’s words, it was almost as if he was directly cursing Chiang Qing!
Shen Rong, being an old hand, heard Zhou Jun’s words and his face darkened.
Were the references to dogs and mistresses directed at him?
"Old Mr. Shen. I’m afraid it’s not going to work out with you hosting. My brother here has a bit of an issue with emotional cleanliness, your..." Ning Ge smiled and pointed at Chiang Qing: "Your Mistress, caused setbacks in my brother’s business back then. He’s quite petty and hasn’t gotten over it yet!"
This was too much!
Zhou Jun was being indirect, but Ning Ge was calling names!
Despite his good self-control, Shen Rong’s lips twitched in anger upon hearing this, and he glanced at Chiang Qing.
Chiang Qing had already turned her thoughts away from Cheng Su, and after listening to this duet, couldn’t help but retort to Zhou Jun: "Zhou Jun, what do you mean by this? Who are you cursing!"
"I’m cursing you, so what? Am I wrong? Didn’t you set someone up to slander the product I was distributing, saying it harmed people? It damaged my reputation, and you won’t even admit it?" Would Zhou Jun be afraid of her? Not this bully, he wouldn’t!
He didn’t wait for Chiang Qing to respond and turned to Shen Rong, saying: "Old Mr. Shen, I advise you to be careful. This woman has a very poisonous heart. You’re not young anymore, watch that you don’t get tricked by her and end up counting money for her!"
"Zhou Jun, don’t bully people too much!" Chiang Qing screamed. What tricking and counting money for her; wasn’t her affair with Bi Xiaojin essentially selling out Shen Rong?
Zhou Jun made a face at her.
Shen Rong felt utterly humiliated; he had just come for a meal and didn’t expect to run into this kind of trouble, a bunch of young bullies.
He restrained his anger and said to Ning Ge: "Since Fourth Young Master Ning doesn’t appreciate my offer today, there’s nothing more I can do. In a few days, I’ll host a banquet to specially invite Fourth Young Master Ning and Secretary Ning for a meal? We’re all businessmen, how about we leave it to friendship?"
"Alright, let’s talk about it then!" Ning Ge shrugged.
"Then let’s go!" Shen Rong nodded to him with a smile and turned to leave the restaurant. Chiang Qing gave Zhou Jun and the others a hateful glare and hurried to catch up.
