Chapter 148

The dishes arrived swiftly, and the waitress poured tea, wine, and drinks for everyone. When it was Chi Yu's turn, the young waitress asked softly, "Sir, would you like tea or red wine?"

Chi Yu: "Tea will do."

The waitress: "Yes." As she carefully poured the tea, her hand suddenly became unsteady, and the teacup tipped over, spilling the warm tea onto Chi Yu's pants. It was just a little bit, as Chi Yu quickly stood up.

Before Song Luokui could even react, the waitress immediately apologized and began to dab at Chi Yu with a handkerchief, "I'm so sorry, sir. It's my fault." Her voice was delicate and pitiful, her eyes brimming with tears, her clothing exposing a large portion of her skin as she bent over.

When she reached out to him, Chi Yu frowned and stepped back, calling out, "Chen Nan!"

Chen Nan, initially stunned, promptly stood up and kicked the waitress to the ground with one swift motion, "Restrain her!"

The men around them immediately pinned the waitress down. The other waiters stood dazed, with one of the leaders rushing to find the manager, "We're dead, we're dead, we've offended an important person!"

Song Luokui quickly took out a handkerchief to dab at Chi Yu's leg, "Are you okay? Did it burn you? Let's go to the hospital right away!"

Chi Yu held her hand, "It's fine, not hot, just warm. Don't worry."

Song Luokui looked at the waitress, who was quite pretty, with a nice figure, big chest, slim waist, and tears staining her face, making her appear delicate as she looked at Chi Yu, "I'm sorry, sir. It was my mistake. Please, spare me."

Song Luokui: ... Suddenly, it felt like we had stepped into a scene from some erotic novel.

"Was she trying to seduce you?" Song Luokui looked up at Chi Yu.

Chi Yu paused, "... Perhaps she was trying to assassinate me."

Song Luokui: ... Does this look like an assassination attempt?

The waitress was also stunned, shaking her head, "I wasn't. Sir, I wasn't..." Before Chen Nan stuffed a cloth into her mouth, "Too noisy."

Soon, the restaurant's manager arrived, appearing nervous and apologetic, "Mr. Chi, I'm really sorry. We've given you a terrible experience. It's our fault. Today, your meal will be on the house, and you can have anything you want. Please, Mr. Chi, don't blame us. As for that waitress, we'll handle her properly."

Chi Yu: "No need. I just hope you'll cooperate with the investigation, as I suspect she was trying to assassinate me."

The manager was sweating profusely, "What... What?"Finnd new chapters at novelhall.com

Chi Yu: "Let her go for now. As long as your restaurant operates legally, you have nothing to worry about."

The manager: "No, no, that can't be. We follow all the regulations and pay our taxes on time."

Chi Yu: "Serve the dishes now, my men are hungry."

"Yes, yes."

"May the Boss and Sister-in-law live in harmony and happiness."

"May the Boss and Sister-in-law have a blissful marriage filled with good fortune."

Song Luokui: ... Why does it sound like we're getting married?

She suddenly recalled when Chi Yu had confessed to her, and that scene also resembled a wedding...

Song Luokui kept sipping her drink, her face flushed with embarrassment. Chi Yu, on the other hand, seemed quite happy, though he didn't smile constantly. Yet, he downed each toast made to them in one gulp.

Song Luokui was a little worried about him, "Drinking so much, you'll feel sick later."

One of the henchmen: "The Sister-in-law is concerned for the Boss!"

Song Luokui: ...

Chi Yu looked at her with delight, his arm still around her, "It's fine, I won't get drunk."

Despite saying he wouldn't get drunk, his steps were indeed unsteady after leaving. Song Luokui couldn't support him, so Chen Nan helped by holding Chi Yu as they got into the car.

As soon as they were in the car, Chi Yu immediately embraced Song Luokui, burying his face in her neck, his warm breath tickling her skin.

"Go to ChunWang Manor," Song Luokui instructed the driver, who wasn't Uncle An.

"Yes."

They soon arrived at ChunWang Manor. Song Luokui patted Chi Yu, "Are you still awake? Can you walk?"

Chi Yu closed his eyes and let out an "mmm" sound. Song Luokui helped him upstairs, into the room, and laid him down on the bed. The aunt had already brought over the hangover soup, as Song Luokui had called ahead to have it prepared while they were in the car.

Song Luokui handed the hangover soup to Chi Yu, "Drink the hangover soup."

Chi Yu immediately opened his slightly dazed eyes, sat up, and gulped down the soup in one sip. The aunt quickly left with the bowl, leaving only Chi Yu and Song Luokui in the bedroom.

Song Luokui thought she should get a towel to wipe him down, so she prepared to go to the washroom.

Chi Yu grabbed her hand, "Where are you going? Don't leave." He kept his eyes open, staring at her.

The gaze made Song Luokui's face flush red. "I'm not leaving, I'm just going to get a towel to wipe you down."

"Mmm." It took Chi Yu a while before he released her hand.

Song Luokui returned with the towel and wiped his face, neck, then proceeded to unbutton his clothes.
