Hearing this, Qin Ning and the others, who had been chatting casually, stopped and looked at Cheng Linhua as if they were looking at an idiot.
"Is your brain broken? You didn't say it earlier, you didn't say it later, and now that the food is about to be served, you want us to change seats?" Jiang Yanran was not going to indulge him; she had been holding back for a long time.
"What did you say?"
Beside them, Cheng Hao's face darkened. He then looked at Cheng Weiyang. "Look at these friends you brought. They truly have no manners at all."
Cheng Weiyang's face also turned cold. "You can say whatever you want about me, but don't talk about my friends. Moreover, I advise you to obediently shut your mouth and be careful that trouble doesn't come from it. Now, apologize to Yanran immediately!"
"Me, apologize?"
Cheng Hao sneered disdainfully. "Why should I apologize? What right do you have to make me apologize?"
At this moment, Qin Ning, who had not said a single word from the very beginning, finally spoke. He slightly raised his eyes and looked at Cheng Hao. "If it weren't for the old man's sake, you would probably be a dead man right now."
"Heh..."
As soon as he said this, before Cheng Hao could respond, Lu Peng, who was standing to the side, could not help but laugh. "Listening to this friend's tone, it seems you are involved in the underworld? However, don't blame me for not warning you. This is Xinguang County. Cheng Hao is my subordinate and my friend. No matter what your identity is, you'd better stay out of this."
After saying that, he cast another disdainful glance at Qin Ning, and without waiting for a response, he pulled Cheng Hao away. "Let's go. We will go to that table over there. Let's not lower ourselves to their level."
Father Cheng looked at Qin Ning and said, "Young Master Qin, I am truly sorry..."
"It's fine," Qin Ning waved his hand.
Although he said it was fine, Cheng Weiyang, Su Xingwan, and the others were certain that after tonight, whether it was Cheng Hao or Lu Peng, they would probably suffer a terrible fate.
"Brother, over here!"
At this time, a young man walked in from the direction of the door. Cheng Weiyang recognized at a glance that it was her brother Cheng Mo, and hurriedly waved to him.
"Young Master Qin."
Cheng Mo walked closer and immediately greeted Qin Ning.
"Sit down." Qin Ning pointed to an empty seat.
Lu Peng, who was sitting at the table next to them, suddenly became a little curious and asked Cheng Hao beside him in confusion, "That's your cousin, right? Why is he so respectful to that young man?"
"Ah, he's probably just a rich kid with some money at home. Who knows where Cheng Weiyang hooked up with him," Cheng Hao said nonchalantly.
Right at this moment, another figure walked in from outside the door.
This was a middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, with a large, protruding belly.
"President Sun!"
Lu Peng and Cheng Hao subconsciously glanced over. When they recognized the middle-aged man's appearance, both of them showed shock on their faces.
Sun Shenghai, wasn't this the boss of their Youli Group?
Why had he suddenly come here too?
It should be known that as the boss, and also the richest man in the county, the two of them were not qualified to invite him.
Although they were extremely curious in their hearts, Lu Peng and Cheng Hao quickly reacted and hurriedly went up to welcome Sun Shenghai.
"President Sun..."
Lu Peng smiled and reached out his hand, but found that Sun Shenghai completely ignored him. Instead, he walked straight past them and went to Qin Ning's side.
Under the astonished gazes of Cheng Hao and Lu Peng, Sun Shenghai bowed extremely respectfully to Qin Ning and greeted him, "Young Master Qin."
Hearing Sun Shenghai's form of address for Qin Ning, the two were shocked again, and their hearts could not help but skip a beat.
You also call him Young Master Qin?
Obviously, in their eyes, the 'Young Master Qin' shouted from Cheng Mo's mouth and the Young Master Qin shouted from Sun Shenghai's mouth were not the same concept at all.
Lu Peng suddenly felt that something was wrong, but he still walked over immediately and asked, "President Sun, this Young Master Qin is..."
"You are?"
Sun Shenghai did not answer his question. Instead, he turned his head and glanced at Lu Peng and Cheng Hao, and then seemed to realize, "You are Lu Peng, right? Why are you here too?"
What do you mean why am I here too?
Shouldn't I be the one asking you that?
Lu Peng said, "President Sun, this is Cheng Hao, the team leader of our department. Today is his grandfather's birthday celebration here."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Sun Shenghai finally understood.
But he also seemed to notice that the atmosphere was not right. He found that the eyes of Qin Fei and the others looking at Lu Peng and Cheng Hao appeared somewhat cold.
Could it be that before he arrived just now, these two guys had offended Qin Ning and his group?
Thinking of this, Sun Shenghai's heart could not help but skip a beat.
Damn it.
This was an existence that even Xia Fei, Eldest Young Master Xia, had to treat like an ancestor. Even he himself could not afford to offend him. How did these two blind fools dare to do so?
Most importantly, they were actually employees of his own company!
In an instant, Sun Shenghai had the urge to die.
He was truly afraid that Qin Ning would bring trouble to his Youli Group because of this.
"Young Master Qin, did they accidentally offend you just now?" Sun Shenghai braced himself and asked.
Before Qin Ning could speak, Jiang Yanran beside him chuckled, "Isn't that right? Just now they even warned us that this is Xinguang County and told us to keep a low profile."
Hearing this, Sun Shenghai's face instantly turned pale, and cold sweat poured down his forehead.
He hurriedly said, "You two, don't come to work starting tomorrow."
As soon as these words came out, Cheng Hao suddenly became a little anxious.
He had just become the department team leader not long ago, and his future could be said to be boundless. Why was he suddenly fired?
Just who was this Young Master Qin?
To actually make the richest man in the county and the boss of Youli Group, President Sun, act so respectfully.
And just because of a few words of offense from him and Lu Peng, President Sun had fired the two of them!
"President Sun, we haven't committed any major mistakes, you doing this..."
Lu Peng furrowed his brows. He obviously had not expected Sun Shenghai to cut them off so directly.
"Don't talk nonsense with me, Lu Peng. I know your uncle is a county director, but don't even think about using your uncle to pressure me. Having offended Young Master Qin, even if your uncle came, I wouldn't give him any face." Sun Shenghai snorted coldly.
As soon as he said this, Lu Peng's face instantly became even uglier. "President Sun has such a big tone. It's not like I, Lu Peng, absolutely have to stay in your Youli Group, but your words just now truly showed no regard for my uncle. If I were to call him right now..."
"Call him."
Jiang Yanran jeered from the side, "Go ahead and call. I'd really like to see if your uncle can help you."
"Good, good, good."
Lu Peng laughed out of anger. Too lazy to continue talking nonsense, he directly took out his phone, found a number, and immediately dialed it.
"Little Peng, is something the matter?"
On this end of the phone, County Director Yin Shengli had just gotten off work and was eating at a restaurant with several leaders. Suddenly receiving a call from his nephew, he could not help but become a little curious.
"Uncle, the situation is like this..."
Lu Peng did not waste words and directly gave a brief account of the matter.
After hearing this, Yin Shengli's brow immediately furrowed. "This Sun Shenghai... how could he say such things in front of so many people?"
Even if the man was the wealthiest person in the county, Yin Shengli was still a director, after all. Sun Shenghai's words were a blatant slap in the face.
He scoffed softly and then said, "You're at the Linlan Restaurant right now? On the second floor? Alright, I actually happen to be eating on the first floor. I'll head up there right now."
