Chapter 95

Kou Zhenhai's words instantly caused an uproar among those present; everyone in the restaurant were prominent figures of the capital, and the great name of Yan Group was naturally known to all.

They had indeed heard that Yan Moci had awakened, but to them Yan Moci himself was still far too lofty to approach.

No one present could have imagined actually encountering Yan Moci here; their gazes toward him became eagerly intense, yet they dared not draw near due to his fearsome reputation as a killing god.

Rumor still circulates that he once coldly crushed eight ribs of a person.

Kou Zhenhai was already a prominent figure among those present, so his words could not be false.

Feng Ting's gaze toward Yan Moci shifted instantly; he no longer dared to act rashly as he had just done.

On the contrary, Kou Zhenhai's son Kou Nan looked utterly incredulous, and he questioned: 'Dad, you're saying this pauper is the chairman of Yan Group!? How could that be!'

If he really were Yan Moci, could he still go Dutch with a woman to eat?

Saying this, Kou Nan looked at Su Yimeng: 'Miss, you tell us—is this person really Yan Moci or not?'

Su Yimeng, who was asked, turned deathly pale in an instant, as if she had suffered some great injustice; she clenched her lower lip and remained silent.

Seeing Su Yimeng putting on such an act, Yan Moci's gaze grew even colder.

If Su Yimeng's earlier silence was her enjoying the feeling of being surrounded by admirers, then her present silence probably means,

that she does not want anyone to know she was actually publicly humiliated by Yan Moci.

A woman publicly humiliated by Yan Moci will likely have a hard time in the upper circles of Jingdu from now on.

However, Yan Moci's eyes narrowed slightly; Kou Zhenhai, an old fox beside him, could tell from Yan Moci's expression that he truly disliked this girl.

He had always wanted to befriend Yan Moci, but lacked the opportunity; now this opportunity lay before him.

Without Yan Moci speaking, Kou Zhenhai furrowed his brows and said:

"Miss, I believe my son didn't ask you anything improper.

You needn't put on such a wronged act; in public you can speak openly.

I think, as a girl from a respectable family, you would certainly not go out to eat with someone whose name you don't even know."

Things had come to this point; Su Yimeng was caught in a bind—admitting it would be bad, denying it would also be bad.

Admitting it would show that Yan Moci disliked her publicly, and further show that her earlier act was deliberately intended to attract attention.

Denying it would only result in being publicly slapped in the face.

In that moment, Su Yimeng's eyes reddened; she glanced at Yan Moci with tears welling up, then turned and ran out of the restaurant.

At this moment, the crowd finally grasped Kou Zhenhai's meaning, and their gazes toward Su Yimeng turned cold and probing.

Everyone here is a wily old fox; what are they still messing around with strange tales?

Some female companions even let out a dismissive snort: 'Nowadays, who still goes for that old-fashioned innocent maiden act? Only brainless men would eat it up.'

After learning the full story, Feng Ting embarrassedly rubbed his nose—he had indeed been at the forefront of those brainless men just moments ago.

Hope Yan Moci will be magnanimous and not hold a grudge against him.

After all, the Feng family could never compare to the Yan family at any time, and now is a crucial moment for him to bring down the Feng family.

Seeing Feng Ting trembling, Yan Moci curled his lips.

"Feng Ting? The second young master of the Feng family?"

Upon hearing Yan Moci address him as the second young master rather than the Feng family's illegitimate son, a faint gratitude appeared in Feng Ting's eyes.

Yan Moci is indeed extraordinary, not an ordinary person!

Yan Moci actually showed a hint of a smile; perfect, since Li Meng had earlier abducted Su Xiyan and he hadn't yet settled the score.

Now this ambitious illegitimate son of the Feng family has been delivered to his doorstep, and he can see that Feng Ting intends to curry favor with him.

Whether it be Feng Yan, Li Meng, or Su Xiwei, if we let them continue to throw their weight around via the Feng family, sooner or later they will threaten Su Xiyan's safety.

He might as well do a favor and lend a hand to this second young master.

Seeing everyone looking at him respectfully, as if waiting for him to issue commands,

Yan Moci, with one hand casually in his pocket, seemed like heavenly nobility; everything appeared utterly natural,

He pointed to Feng Ting and also to Kou Zhenhai, who had just spoken up for him.

"Second Young Master Feng, Chairman Kou, if you have time, come to the Yan Clan for a gathering."

Yan Moci's words were as if golden jade decrees.

The gazes of those present toward Feng Ting and Kou Zhenhai instantly changed, filled with envy and jealousy.

They all wished they themselves had recognized Yan Moci earlier and could have been the one to speak up for him.

What a pity!

However, some people present found it strange—clearly Feng Ting had initially made things difficult for Yan Moci, yet he ended up catching Yan Moci's eye. jj. br>

In that moment, everyone's gaze toward Feng Ting became much more respectful, no longer the disdain they had shown toward the Feng family's illegitimate son.

Sensing the shift in everyone's gaze, Feng Ting instantly realized that just a single sentence from Yan Moci held enough power to provoke such a reaction.

Yan Moci, terrifying indeed!

He immediately offered a respectful apology to Yan Moci in front of everyone: 'I'm truly sorry, Young Master Yan; just now I was blind and deceived by that woman.'

I was blinded by greed, have offended greatly; please, sir, do not hold a villain's transgressions against him.

From now on, wherever you need me, a single word from you will have me rushing to your side, devoted to the utmost.

Feng Ting's words were spoken with complete sincerity; one must admit he had been utterly won over by Yan Moci's personal charm.

Seeing Feng Ting so tactful, Yan Moci curled the corner of his mouth,

"Second Young Master Feng, no need for formalities."

Having said that, he turned and left.

After he departed, the oppressive atmosphere that had lingered over the restaurant finally seemed to dissipate.

Everyone was overwhelmed by Yan Moci's awe-inspiring, heaven-covering presence, and they couldn't help but exclaim:

After Yan Moci awakens, he will surely stir up a tremendous upheaval in Jingdu.

After Su Yimeng ran out of the restaurant, she truly felt hatred.

Even bearing the Su Family name, Yan Moci actually gave her no face at all!

She gritted her teeth angrily, wanting to complain to Luo Yin.

But thinking of Su Muye's warning to her today:

"Mengmeng, if you want to marry Yan Moci, I can help you.

"But if you make Mom faint again, don't blame Dad for being ruthless."

When he said that, Su Muye gazed at her eyes, and even just thinking about it now makes her tremble all over.

In extreme hatred and anger, Su Yimeng formed a new plan.

After carefully looking around, she took out another mobile phone she carried with her,

"Waiting for the other end to transmit a happy voice: 'Mengmeng, you finally called Mom!'"

As soon as that voice came through, Su Yimeng immediately spoke with a crying tone:

"Mom, I don't want to stay in the Su Family."
