Chapter 10

After entering the private room, the waitress politely asked, "Sir, here's the menu. What would you like to order?"

"No need for the menu." Lin Ming waved his hand, "Bring all your signature dishes and also open a bottle of 1982 Lafite."

"Qin Ming, isn't this too extravagant?" Qin Xingxuan was shocked. A meal like this would probably cost tens of thousands of dollars.

"Xingxuan, just trust me today." Lin Ming said firmly.

"Alright." Seeing this, Qin Xingxuan nodded helplessly.

"Hurry up with the dishes." Lin Ming said to the waitress.

"Yes, sir, please wait a moment." The waitress smiled brightly at the words, knowing she would surely earn a hefty commission today.

The service in the VIP private room was excellent. Their dishes were prioritized, and in twenty minutes, all the food and wine were served. The two of them began to eat slowly.

"No wonder so many people love money. Without money, we can't even afford medical treatment. But wealthy people can enjoy delicacies, luxury cars, mansions, and the ultimate services..." Lin Ming said, "Xingxuan, in the future, I'll make sure you can enjoy this kind of life too."

"I'd rather not. I think being an ordinary person is fine, being safe and healthy, having a warm family..." Qin Xingxuan shook her head, then asked, "How are you doing at the an family? Did they look down on you when you married into the family?"

"No, the people at the an family are quite nice. Besides, I don't have to worry about food and clothing now. I've grown to like it there." Lin Ming smiled and said. He kept the grievances he had suffered to himself. There was no need to tell Qin Xingxuan.

"Really?" Qin Xingxuan looked at Lin Ming suspiciously. "You better not be lying to me. Tell me the truth, did you marry into the family to raise money for my medical treatment? If that's the case, I'm afraid I'll feel guilty for the rest of my life."

"Xingxuan, you're overthinking it. It's true that we needed money, but most importantly, my wife is a good person, and I genuinely love her. That's why I willingly did this." Lin Ming said seriously, even convincing himself with his words.

"In that case, I'll meet her later. Speaking of which, I haven't met your wife yet." Qin Xingxuan breathed a sigh of relief, but she still felt a bit uneasy.

"Yeah, there will be opportunities." Lin Ming smiled and said.

Bang!

Just then, the door of the private room was suddenly pushed open, or rather, kicked open.

"What? You dare to occupy this private room? Do you know whose room this is?" 

A young man, with his arm around a girl with a popular face, raised his chin slightly and looked up at the ceiling.

"Wang Shao! You're here?" Seeing the young man, the waiter's face immediately showed a flattering smile.

"What's going on? Don't you know this is my frequently used private room? How dare you give it to someone else? Are you looking to get fired?" Wang Pengfei said arrogantly.

"Well, Wang Shao, I have no choice. I don't know where this country bumpkin came from, acting like a big shot with a hundred thousand in cash. After all, we're running a business here, we can't afford to offend customers, right?" The waiter explained, "But since Wang Shao is here, they'll definitely have to leave. I'll go kick them out."

With that, the waiter turned to Lin Ming, her smile turning cold, "Sir, Madam, please leave!"

Lin Ming felt a bit displeased at the demand, "Seeing Wang Shao's appearance, he probably didn't make a reservation. In everything, there's a first-come, first-served principle. Why should we leave?"

"Well..." The waiter was at a loss for words because they were indeed in the wrong. But soon, she sneered, "But he's Wang Shao!"

"He's your Wang Shao, not mine." Lin Ming shook his head slightly.

"Hehe, it looks like someone doesn't give face to Wang Shao," the girl with the popular face said in a coy voice.

Wang Pengfei's face couldn't hold up, and he stared at Lin Ming with an unpleasant expression.

"First come, first served? Reservations? Do I need to make a reservation to eat at my own place? It's ridiculous. You bumpkins probably don't know how to get lucky and ended up here to show off with a hundred grand?" Wang Pengfei sneered repeatedly.

"Tell you what, you're not qualified yet. Get out!" Wang Pengfei said arrogantly.

"I'm not leaving today!" Lin Ming finally got angry. He slammed the chopsticks on the table and said firmly, "Have your uncle come over, I want to ask him if he's still running this business!"

"No need. I'm in charge here. If you don't leave, I'll have the security throw you out!" Wang Pengfei said with a cold smile.

"Or, we should just leave. We can't afford to mess with these people." Qin Xingxuan said helplessly.

"Huh? There's also a beauty here?"

Wang Pengfei hadn't seen Qin Xingxuan's face before, but now he noticed her.

Seeing Qin Xingxuan's beautiful face, Wang Pengfei's eyes lit up, "Kid, you can leave, but this beauty stays!"

"Get lost!" Lin Ming's eyes suddenly turned icy, with a hint of anger flickering inside.

Qin Xingxuan was his sore spot. No one could touch her. Whoever touched her would die!

"What did you say? Did you tell me to get lost? Are you sure you're talking to Wang Shao?" Wang Pengfei couldn't believe it.

"You heard me right. I told you to get lost!" Lin Ming said coldly.

"You're asking for it!" Wang Pengfei became furious, grabbed a nearby wooden chair, and swung it towards Lin Ming's head.

"Watch out!" Qin Xingxuan saw this scene and immediately turned pale.

Lin Ming, however, remained unfazed, and it seemed like some memory was awakened in his body. Facing such an attack, he was unafraid.

Just as the chair was about to hit Lin Ming, he suddenly swung his fist.

"Kid, do you think you're Superman? Using your fist against a chair?" Wang Pengfei's face showed a sneer, but his smile froze in place.

Crash!

With a loud bang, Lin Ming's fist directly pierced through the chair, then smashed into Wang Pengfei's chest.

Bang!

Wang Pengfei's body flew backwards and crashed into the wall, causing the entire room to shake.

He was completely stunned.

After a moment, Wang Pengfei let out a scream of pain, mixed with angry shouts.

"Ah! It hurts! You bastard, how dare you hit me! I'll definitely kill you! Security! Where the hell are the security guards?"

The waiter and the girl with the popular face were already terrified, and upon hearing Wang Pengfei's screams, they quickly went out to call the security guards.

Soon, a group of security guards holding rubber batons rushed in, staring fiercely at Lin Ming.

The leader was a middle-aged man with extraordinary bearing, who happened to be Wang Pengfei's uncle, Wang Linuo, the owner of Tianfu Yipin.

"Uncle, you have to help me. I'm about to be beaten to death!" Wang Pengfei cried miserably when he saw the man, looking pitiful.

Wang Linuo glanced at the room and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on?"

"Boss, it's like this..." The waiter quickly explained what had happened.
