Chapter 60: Chapter 60: I Came Late and Missed Another Good Show

With a heart-stopping CRASH, the wine bottle shattered, and so did Zhu Jian’an’s head. Blood and red wine flowed all over his head and neck.

Zheng Qiuhang was left holding only the jagged neck of the bottle!

Zheng Qiuhang had struck with all her might. This was no time for feminine modesty.

The blow, which left Zhu Jian’an a bloody mess, also stunned the crowd of rich heirs and heiresses in the private room.

The screams of the women made Zheng Qiuhang frown. She barked coldly, "No screaming!"

And so, no one dared to scream again.

"Now you’re starting to look like the lady boss of Li Garden Hall!" Wang Chenning gave Zheng Qiuhang a thumbs-up.

Zheng Qiuhang returned a sweet smile, then smashed the bottleneck she was holding onto the coffee table.

With a SMASH of glass against glass, the men and women in the room—who had been playing dead or burying their heads in the sand—jumped out of their skins all over again.

"Has anyone called the police?" Wang Chenning asked the room with a cheerful smile. "If not, you’d better get on the phone!"

Hearing this, Zhang Jinhong dazedly scrambled up from the floor and ordered someone beside him to call the police.

And so, one of his lackeys obediently pulled a phone from his pocket to make the call.

But before he could press more than a single digit, a body flew toward him.

Wang Chenning had casually picked up one of the rich kids lying nearby and hurled him at the man with the phone.

The unlucky projectile, Zhang Jinhong, and the would-be caller all had a very intimate reunion, collapsing into a tangled heap.

In the ensuing scramble, the phone fell to the floor, its screen getting shattered underfoot as they struggled to get up.

"Feeling better?" Wang Chenning asked Zheng Qiuhang. "If you’re still angry, we can make them put on another show."

"Much better!" Zheng Qiuhang replied with a captivating smile. "I’m always happy when I see you."

Right now, she couldn’t be happier.

’Being doted on and protected feels so good! It’s pure bliss!’

"Just who the hell are you?" After taking that heavy blow from Zheng Qiuhang, Zhu Jian’an’s face twisted into a hideous snarl. He took advantage of Wang Chenning and Zheng Qiuhang’s flirting to stagger back to his feet. "Do you have any idea who we are? Aren’t you afraid of bringing a world of trouble down on yourself?"

Zheng Qiuhang stood proudly by Wang Chenning’s side and announced, full of pride, "He’s our boss, Young Master Wang!"

"You’re the boss of Li Garden?" Zhu Jian’an pointed at Wang Chenning in astonishment.

He had no idea who the new owner of Li Garden Hall was. The person who had sent him to stir up trouble had only told him that the new boss had no backing and was terrified of conflict, so he should feel free to cause a scene. He never expected the owner to be a young man with such incredible fighting skills, someone who clearly wasn’t afraid of anything.

"That’s right." Wang Chenning wrapped an arm around Zheng Qiuhang’s shoulders, still beaming. "Li Mingchao and I had a little tussle. He lost, so Li Garden Hall went from being his to being mine. We’ll be making a lot of changes here at the Hall, adding many new events and activities. You can think of today’s brawl as a special VIP experience. In the future, if you’d like me to beat you up again, I’m always available—as long as you can pay the price."

Zheng Qiuhang almost burst out laughing. ’Her boss never missed an opportunity for a bit of dark humor.’

’Mmm, his arm around her shoulder felt so sweet and safe.’ She naturally leaned closer into his embrace.

Zhu Jian’an didn’t quite catch the name Li Mingchao. He was too provoked by Wang Chenning’s final words.

’Son of a bitch, how dare he humiliate us like this.’

But when his eyes met Wang Chenning’s smiling ones, he felt a jolt, as if he’d been pricked by a needle.

The bastard might have been smiling, but beneath it was pure killing intent. A chill of true horror ran through Zhu Jian’an.

Wang Chenning ignored Zhu Jian’an and instead crooked a finger at the blood-covered Zhang Jinhong, beckoning him over.

As if Zhang Jinhong would dare approach. He quickly tried to hide behind his companions.

Wang Chenning hooked a plate off the floor with his foot and kicked it straight at Zhang Jinhong, hitting him squarely in the leg.

Zhang Jinhong let out a pained cry and dropped to his knees with a THUD.

Emboldened by Wang Chenning’s power, Zheng Qiuhang added a threat of her own, "If you don’t walk over here now, you’ll be crawling!"

Terrified, Zhang Jinhong scrambled to his feet and hurried over to Wang Chenning, bowing his head, too afraid to look up.

"You’re the birthday boy, aren’t you? I should wish you a happy birthday again. May you have a day just like this every year!" Wang Chenning took another glass of wine from a waiter at the door, raised it towards Zhang Jinhong, and downed it in one gulp.

Zhang Jinhong nearly choked. ’A fucking day like this every year? If every birthday was going to be like this one, he’d rather find a rope and go play on a swing like Emperor Chongzhen.’

After finishing his drink, Wang Chenning smashed the glass against the wall. His face turned cold as he barked, "Every single one of you will apologize to President Zheng! And if anyone’s apology isn’t sincere enough, don’t blame me for what comes next. Birthday boy, you’re up first."

The sound of shattering glass, combined with Wang Chenning’s threat, sent a shiver down everyone’s spine.

No one dared to resist. They obediently went to apologize to Zheng Qiuhang.

Just then, a woman’s voice rang out. "Oh dear, it seems I’m late. I’ve missed another great show!"

Wang Chenning looked up to see a beautifully dressed Luo Yuqing standing in the doorway, flanked by two well-built bodyguards, a man and a woman.

Luo Yuqing wore a red trench coat over a white sweater. The red-and-white combination, along with her prominent bust, gave her a flamboyant and imposing air.

Of course, Zheng Qiuhang didn’t recognize Luo Yuqing. ’But,’ she thought, ’anyone who dares to walk in at a time like this and speak so brazenly can’t be an ordinary person. And she’s so stunningly beautiful, so voluptuous... That look in her eyes that scoffs at the world, that noble air that radiates from within... It’s enough to make me feel plain in comparison.’

"Little Aunt, you always miss the best parts." Wang Chenning chuckled as he walked over to Luo Yuqing, then made the introductions. "This is the hall manager I hired, Zheng Qiuhang. This is my little aunt, Luo Yuqing. President Zheng, from now on, whenever my little aunt comes here to have fun, put everything on my tab."

"Understood!" Zheng Qiuhang was secretly stunned but knew better than to ask questions.

While Wang Chenning and Luo Yuqing were talking, Zhu Jian’an, who had been hiding off to the side, answered a phone call.

After the call, his confidence returned. He threatened viciously, "You dared to hit us today! Someone is not going to let you get away with this!"

Such a spoiled brat, having never known true hardship. He was used to being arrogant, forgetting the pain before the wound had even closed.

"Well, if someone’s not going to let us get away with it, then you’d better make the call! Tell your backer to come over and trash Li Garden Hall!" Zheng Qiuhang said with a mocking expression. "Our Young Master Wang just said, whether you want to call for backup or call the police, be his guest. He’s waiting!"

"Fine! I’ll call right now!" Goaded by Zheng Qiuhang, Zhu Jian’an started to lose his cool. He immediately dialed the number of the person who had sent him to cause trouble in the first place.

"The people at Li Garden Hall beat us up! They’re spouting all sorts of arrogant nonsense, saying they’ll beat anyone who shows up to death! You have to come save us!"
