Chapter 38
Noticing that his wife was not embarrassed by him and was helping him out, Fade Chen suddenly felt warmth in his heart. He approached her and said intimately, "Dear, thank you."
Quin Lin glared at him and said in a low voice, "Put down the steak."
Fade Chen chuckled and said, "i'm not full yet!"
When Howard Zhang saw the two people chatting intimately, the coldness in his eyes became stronger. Howard Zhang smiled and said in an exaggerated long voice, "I didn't expect that he was Miss Lin's husband. I was really surprised! I didn't expect to meet such a rude person on such an occasion."
Hearing this, Quin Lin was angry and was about to speak. However, Fade Chen took the lead and stood out. Fade Chen chewed on the steak in his mouth and said to Howard Zhang, "I really want to ask you, Mr. Zhang, why does eating steak make me a bad-mannered person?"
"Humph!" Howard Zhang snorted. "This is a high-end party Those who attend it are all high-end people. Some people are born vulgar and don't even know how to eat. Don't participate in this party. It's embarrassing and affects the atmosphere of the party."
"It's just a meal. Just eat with your mouth. Don't talk about etiquette to me or you will just sound like you are showing off!" Fade Chen curled his lip and said.
"You are vulgar!" Howard Zhang said disdainfully, "Let's not talk about complex concepts. Do you know how to use basic cutlery ? Do you know the order of a course meal?"
Fade Chen shook his head and said, "I don't know about you but not knowing these does not make a person uncivilised. On the contrary, I think that people who are self-righteous and despise others are
more vulgar." NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
"Nonsense!" Howard Zhang snorted and said, "Being vulgar is being vulgar. How awful!"
Fade Chen said:" So you can differentiate between the rich and poor just by their style of eating?! May I know what kind of noble way do you eat, Mr. Zhang?"
"A beggar like you does not deserve to know my way of eating." Howard Zhang mocked him.
"Beggar!" Fade Chen's eyes turned frosty. He picked up a piece of steak with the fork in his hand and threw it at Howard Zhang.
"Pa!" This hefty steak was smashed on Howard Zhang's face. The splashing sauce from the meat made Howard Zhang's face a mess. His cheeks were swollen due to the heavy force.
Howard Zhang had never suffered such a catastrophe in public. Howard Zhang became furious and threw the steak on the ground and shouted, "Security guard! Come here and beat him harshly."
The security guards rushed over again. This time, there were more people, five or six in total, who surrounded Fade Chen in unison.
Fade Chen and the security guards fought. Seeing this, the little girl, Fish Song pouted in anger. Fish Song threw out the half-eaten steak in her hand towards Howard Zhang. "Bad guy, you are a bad guy. You bullied me and Superman."
Unexpectedly, Fish Song is strong for her age. This time, half a piece of steak was hit on Howard Zhang's face again.
Howard Zhang was fuming with anger. He stared at the little girl with a ferocious face and shouted angrily, "Are you courting death?"
At the same time, Howard Zhang raised his right hand and was about to slap the little girl in the face. Judging from his momentum, if the little girl was hit, she would definitely be badly injured.
But just then, a hurried female voice suddenly shouted, "Stop."
At the same time, the clacking of high heels resounded and a 30-year-old young woman came in hastily with anger and anxiety.
The young woman was wearing a tight purple dress, which outlined her perfect body. Under her black curly hair, her slender eyes looked very tempting. A little black mole next to her left eyebrow added a unique charm.
Like a ripe red apple, her every movement exuded an alluring smell.
The young woman attracted everyone's attention, but at this moment, Howard Zhang, whose mind was occupied by anger, had no time to care about this. Howard Zhang's palm moved with the wind and was about to hit the little girl's face. He scolded fiercely, "B*tch!"
Seeing this, the young woman was furious. She quickly stepped forward and stood in front of the little girl to block Howard Zhang's slap.
Howard Zhang shouted angrily, "Get out of the way..."
But before Howard Zhang finished his words, he finally saw the woman's face clearly, he was so scared that he shivered and quickly withdrew his hand. Howard Zhang forced out an unappealing smile and said to the young woman, "Miss Wu, why are you here?"
"What's wrong with me being here? Do you want to beat me and my daughter?" The young woman said coldly.
At this moment, Howard Zhang was crying in his heart. Howard Zhang did not expect that this woman would appear and that the uncivilised girl was her daughter.
They must know, that the young woman in front of him was the most important figure in this banquet. She was the only daughter of Mayor Wu, Mindy Wu. Then this little girl was Mayor Wu's favourite granddaughter, Fish Song.
However, Mindy Wu and Fish Song rarely attend parties. Unfortunately for Howard Zhang, he had provoked them and was now in serious trouble.
Although Mayor Wu has retired, he had been working hard in Bay City for many years. Mr. Wu had a deep foundation and a wide network of people. These businessmen were no match for him.
Moreover, Charles Wu, the son of Mr. Wu who was also Mindy Wu's brother, was a big shot in the business world. The Red Star Mall founded by Charles Wu was not only doing well in Bay City but also had received great response from the citizens in the provincial cities. Charles Wu's net worth had already increased by more than 10 billion.
Howard Zhang, who was usually arrogant, also had to bow his head at this moment because he knew that if he opposed Mayor Wu, he would bring great trouble to his own family.
Taking a breath, Howard Zhang squeezed out a smile and explained, "Miss Wu, it's just a misunderstanding. I, I just..."
Mindy Wu interrupted him and coldly said, "Whether it's a misunderstanding or not, I can see it clearly. You don't have to speak."
The little girl, Fish Song, said in a childish voice, "Mom, he just scolded me and wanted to hit me."
Howard Zhang's face was stiff and beads of sweat started to appear on his forehead. He quickly bowed sincerely and said in a low voice, "Miss Wu, I'm really sorry for offending Fish Song. It's my fault. I sincerely apologize to you and your daughter. I hope you can forgive me."
The little girl, Fish Song, said unhappily, "You called someone to beat Superman, you must apologize to him too!"
Howard Zhang's face twitched. Howard Zhang held back his unhappiness and forced a smile and apologized to Fade Chen with a 90-degree bow, "Mr. Chen, I'm sorry for what happened just now. I sincerely apologize to you."
