Chapter 84: Chapter 84: If You Say One More Word About Me, I’ll Make Him Your Uncle-in-Law

"Miss Luo, you’ve misunderstood!" Mo Dawei wiped his sweat and tried to struggle one last time. "I didn’t..."

"Bullshit!" Luo Yuqing crudely cut Mo Dawei off. "Do you take us for fools?"

Mo Dawei jumped again in fright, swallowing the words he was about to say.

"Looks like I need to properly settle the score for you siccing those two bastards outside on me tonight." Luo Yuqing stared at Mo Dawei with a sneer. "It’s not often I go out to a bar, and I end up getting plotted against by someone like you? If Wang Chenning hadn’t saved me, I might have been ruined by those two men. And it wasn’t just me, but our Miss Zhao, too."

Luo Yuqing pointed at the stony-faced Zhao Xiao’an. "You even dared to scheme against the two of us, an aunt and her nephew? Do you have a death wish? Do you think you’re even tougher than Li Mingchao?"

Mo Dawei’s face was drenched in sweat, and he was bowed nearly ninety degrees.

He was a smart man and immediately understood the implication in Luo Yuqing’s words.

In his desperation, without a second thought, he said hurriedly, "I am truly sorry for offending you two ladies today, and for slighting Young Master Wang the other day. I dare not offer any excuses for your anger. I sincerely apologize to Miss Luo, Miss Zhao, and Young Master Wang, and I am willing to offer compensation for my foolish actions!"

Mo Dawei was finally getting it. Luo Yuqing let out a cold chuckle, then leisurely began to eat the fruit on the table, ignoring him.

Mo Dawei glanced at Luo Yuqing, then clasped his hands toward Wang Chenning. "Young Master Wang, I am truly sorry. I am willing to accept the consequences for my mistakes and offer compensation. This Night Hotel... business has always been good. How about I offer it to you, Young Master Wang, as a token of my apology!"

"If it’s compensation, then what’s this talk of a ’gift’?" Luo Yuqing was still sneering. "And you think this little bar is enough?"

Sweat poured down Mo Dawei’s face as he bowed repeatedly to Luo Yuqing. "Please, Miss Luo, be merciful! I don’t have many assets to my name. This is my best property. I am willing to transfer it to either your name or Young Master Wang’s, unconditionally. I only ask that you forgive the mistakes I have made!"

"Seeing as you’re so sincere, I accept your apology!" Luo Yuqing’s expression changed in a flash, a smile blooming on her face. "Considering you know you were wrong and are willing to make amends, and since nothing truly terrible happened today, I’ll let it slide. Tomorrow, you’ll transfer this bar to my name. And let me warn you, don’t you dare try any funny business! If there are any problems with the Night Bar, I’m holding you personally responsible!"

"Yes, yes, of course!" Mo Dawei was breaking out in a cold sweat, but he dared not show a hint of disrespect. "I will be in your care from now on, Miss Luo!"

"Let’s hope so!" Luo Yuqing stood up and turned to Wang Chenning. "Are you still bothered by what happened?"

Wang Chenning said, "If Eldest Young Master Mo doesn’t cause any more trouble, then I won’t mind. But if he does, I’ll definitely mind—twice as much."

Wang Chenning’s words made Mo Dawei jump again.

"I wouldn’t dare, I wouldn’t dare!" Mo Dawei said hastily. "I would never dare do anything against Young Master Wang again!"

"See that you remember what you just said!" Luo Yuqing snorted, then beckoned for Wang Chenning and Zhao Xiao’an to leave.

Once they were outside the bar, Luo Yuqing looked at Wang Chenning with a grin. "Another bar for you. How about it? Isn’t your Auntie generous?"

"Thanks, Auntie!" Wang Chenning said with a smile, adding kindly, "You’re a really good person, Auntie!"

"At least I’m not like a certain someone who’s incredibly petty!" Luo Yuqing shot a look at Zhao Xiao’an. "I really don’t know how she has the nerve to criticize anyone!"

"Luo Yuqing!" Zhao Xiao’an flared up. "Do you think doing this actually helps Wang Chenning? Don’t you realize he’ll get into a lot of trouble because of you?"

"It’s fine. As long as he’s in Yandu, I’ve got his back!" Luo Yuqing gave Zhao Xiao’an a contemptuous look. "So, you, Miss Zhao, can stop your pointless worrying, got it? Say one more word, and I’ll make him your brother-in-law!"

"How shameless do you have to be to say something like that?"

"I’ve always been shameless. It’s not like you’re just finding that out today."

In truth, Luo Yuqing and Zhao Xiao’an bickered like this all the time. They hardly ever met without squabbling.

But since it concerned Wang Chenning, the nature of their bickering had changed slightly.

Wang Chenning, on the other hand, wasn’t surprised in the least. He felt that with Luo Yuqing’s personality, nothing she said was worth getting worked up about.

It was just that Zhao Xiao’an’s reaction seemed a little out of the ordinary.

Wang Chenning had no choice but to play peacemaker. He stepped forward, taking Zhao Xiao’an by the hand and Luo Yuqing by the arm, and said with a grin, "After all this commotion, I’m getting hungry. How about I treat you two ladies to a late-night snack?"

"No!" Luo Yuqing said in a huff. "I’m too angry to eat!"

"Fine, don’t come!" Zhao Xiao’an rolled her eyes at Luo Yuqing. "You can go do your own thing. We’ll get a snack by ourselves!"

"I’m going anyway!" Luo Yuqing deliberately hugged Wang Chenning’s arm tightly, giving Zhao Xiao’an a provocative look. "Just so you can be our third wheel!"

Wang Chenning could only try to smooth things over again, leading them one by each hand into Luo Yuqing’s Land Rover.

"My car only seats two," Wang Chenning said with a hint of regret after they got in. "That sports car is all looks and no substance. A car like this is much better!"

"You got it for free anyway, and it’s not like you’re short on cash. Just buy another one!" Luo Yuqing, who had claimed the passenger seat, said lazily. "Besides, isn’t a car that’s all show perfect for picking up girls? Give it to some hot little thing and she’d be begging to get into your bed, wouldn’t she?"

"Luo Yuqing!" Zhao Xiao’an, forced into the back seat, shouted angrily. "Can you please watch your mouth?"

"Aren’t I?" Luo Yuqing retorted irritably. "I’m just stating a fact. How many women do you think could resist a temptation like that?"

"I’ll drive it myself, I’m not giving it away. It’s nice for blowing off some steam, taking it for a spin now and then!" Wang Chenning quickly changed the subject. "Why was Mo Dawei so quick on the uptake today? He offered to give us the bar without us even having to pressure him."

"Never underestimate someone who knows when to back down!" Luo Yuqing said seriously. "In Yandu’s circle of rich heirs, there’s hardly a single one who’s a pushover. Whether it’s Lin Annian, Li Mingchao, Wu Linhan, or Bai Qianxun, none of them are simple characters. You only managed to get the upper hand because you caught them by surprise. It won’t be so easy to take advantage of them in the future."

"I have my own ways. I’m not afraid of them." Wang Chenning smiled. "A man can’t always rely on others for everything, right?"

Luo Yuqing’s head snapped around. Wang Chenning’s pointed remark startled her.

’This guy... does he have another ace up his sleeve?’
