Chapter 176: What a big sucker!
Wu An and the two of them arrived at the restaurant, the family had already come, and they were already in the private room.
Wu An walked into the private room and saw that the cold dishes had already been served.
A Qing walked over, happily saying: "Mom, we made over two thousand again today!"
Li Juan covered her mouth: "Again, made that much!"
"Is it a water-pumping pit?"
A Qing nodded.
Wu Ping curiously asked: "What did you catch?"
"Tiger fish and flower gold drum and such." A Qing paused, then said: "Also black bream and yellow-leg waxy and such miscellaneous fish."
Wu Ping clicked his tongue: "Fish that cost dozens per jin, how can they be considered miscellaneous fish?"
A Qing laughed heartily: "Brother Ping, once you rest and come along, you'll know why I call them miscellaneous fish."
Wu Ping quickly nodded: "Okay, I'll come along too."
Wu An sat down, and Mei Yueqin asked: "Those tiger fish are poisonous, aren't you okay?"
Wu An shook his head.
After preparing his gear, fully equipped, he went into the water and said a few words.
Only then did Mei Yueqin relax.
The waiter came in and asked whether to serve the hot dishes.
Soon.
Plate after plate of exquisitely presented dishes were served, not just the dishes but also wine; Wu Ping stood up to pour wine for Wu Yingwei, spilled a little, and Wu Yingwei anxiously shouted: "Slow down, slow down, that little spill is worth dozens!"
Wu Ping blinked: "Ah?"
Wu An smiled: "Brother, don't listen to Dad's nonsense; this bottle is only six or seven hundred, spilling a little is at most a few bucks."
Wu Ping scratched his head: "Why are we drinking such expensive wine?"
A Qing pointed to the garlic butter emperor crab on the table and said: "Brother Ping, this dish is even more expensive than the wine."
Wu Yingwei looked at Wu An: "You just bring A Qing to eat and drink extravagantly every day?"
Wu An was about to speak, but A Qing, quick-tongued, said: "Not every day, just every few days; not only me, but also many of Brother's friends."
Wu Yingwei was about to say something else, but Mei Yueqin spoke first: "A An, that's right; you work so hard, earning money away from home every day, when you eat out you must eat well."
Wu An nodded happily: "Sister-in-law, I know."
This family.
The one who loves him most is still his sister-in-law.
Originally Dad wanted to lecture him a bit, but seeing Mei Yueqin say that, he just grudgingly took a sip of wine and said nothing more.
Not long after.
Qin Zong came to propose a toast.
After drinking a cup, Wu An greeted him, followed Qin Zong out, and came to the first-floor monitoring room.
Qin Zong had the security pull up the surveillance footage, and Wu An sat down.
Let me see what's going on.
In the surveillance footage was Chen Long.
Dressed up to look respectable, he sat in a corner of the hall, ordered several hard dishes, and not long after, Shen Fang and Mao Wang arrived.
Seeing this, Wu An couldn't help but sit up straight.
The three of them together are surely up to no good.
It's also a coincidence.
The spot Chen Long chose is not far from the surveillance camera, which also has audio; not only can we see clearly, we can also hear most of what they say.
Seeing Shen Fang, Chen Long became very agitated, questioning her why she was spouting nonsense, asking if Wu An had forced her.
Shen Fang didn't speak right away, looking at the table full of dishes, she said: "No rush."
"Let's eat well first, otherwise the food will get cold."
She worried that if they started talking later, they wouldn't be able to finish this table of food.
The three ate and drank in silence for a while, but Chen Long still couldn't hold back and pressed on: "Originally it was Shen Fang who took the initiative, but it turned into him being a rascal."
He really couldn't bear it.
Shen Fang had also almost finished eating, wiped her mouth, and said: "It wasn't Wu An who forced me; I chose it myself."
Chen Long became even more agitated: "Why?"
Shen Fang: "Because you're not as good as Wu An."
Wu An looked surprised.
He had thought Shen Fang would push everything onto him, playing the innocent white lotus, but he didn't expect her to be quite decent.
Chen Long slammed the table: "Bullshit!"
"In what way am I not as good as Wu An?"
Shen Fang calmly said: "You were beaten by Wu An."
"That was just a mistake!"
"You were knocked down by his punch."
"That was a sneak attack!"
"When you tried to get up, he stepped on you again with his foot."
"That's him not observing martial virtue."
"No matter how you say it, you were beaten by Wu An with no power to retaliate."
Enough, don't say that anymore!
Playing mind games, you also can't beat Wu An.
Saying this, Shen Fang spread her hands, with a helpless look, said: "You can't beat Wu An, and you can't outplay him either."
If it were you.
What would you choose?
Back then, I was blind, that's why I dumped Wu An and chose you.
"Ah!" Chen Long, his defenses broken by the words, roared as he stood up, grabbed the table with both hands, wanting to flip it, but after two shouts and two attempts, the table didn't move at all.
That's awkward.
Wu Anle chuckled and turned his head to look at Qin Zong.
Qin Zong also laughed: "You'd better not say that; I specifically welded the table shut to prevent anyone from flipping it."
Wu An gave a thumbs up.
He has foresight.
Chen Long didn't flip the table, his anger had no outlet, he wanted to hit someone, but Mao Wang and the waiter walked over, watching him warily.
Chen Long is a petty dog.
Otherwise, back then Wu An couldn't have knocked him down with just a punch and a kick; so he couldn't fight, he could only angrily leave his seat, and before walking away he didn't forget to throw down harsh words: "Shen Fang, you wait for me!"
Wu An furrowed his brows.
This isn't right.
Shen Fang's behavior is pressing Chen Long's dignity into the ground and rubbing it; no man could absolutely tolerate such humiliation!
Shen Fang is a smart person; she couldn't possibly not know that provoking Chen Long like this brings her no benefit at all; asking herself, if she were Chen Long, she would have the heart to stab Shen Fang to death right now.
Qin Zong said: "There's more to come."
At this moment.
The waiter came over: "Hello, who's paying the bill?"
Shen Fang looked at Mao Wang.
Mao Wang was dumbfounded: "Chen Long didn't pay the bill?"
The waiter shook his head.
Mao Wang slapped the table: "Damn, we got scammed."
"That kid probably is retaliating against us like this."
"This is already over a thousand."
"My monthly pocket money is just this much."
Shen Fang asked: "How about we go Dutch?"
She was just asking.
In fact, she didn't even make a pretence of reaching for money.
Mao Wang hurriedly shook his head: "How could I let you pay?"
I'll pay.
Shen Fang had the waiter clear the dishes and ordered a pot of tea.
Mao Wang completely lacked the awareness of being a sucker, and still worriedly asked: "Shen Fang, you've provoked Chen Long so much; what if he doesn't take revenge on you?"
Wu An was stunned.
He couldn't understand how that question could be asked.
What do you mean 'what if Chen Long doesn't take revenge, what then?'
Could it be that Shen Fang actually hopes Chen Long will take revenge?
Is that reasonable?
He knows Shen Fang all too well; she's a selfish woman who only cares about her own well-being, indifferent to others' suffering.
In his previous life, he was scammed, and Mao Wang naturally didn't escape either.
In this life, it's utterly impossible for Shen Fang to have changed her nature, willing to selflessly sacrifice herself to shield him.
Shen Fang took a sip of tea and confidently said: "I understand Chen Long; he will definitely take revenge, and he will do it against me first."
When the time comes, you just need to do as I say.
Mao Wang looked uneasy: "What if..."
No "what if"! Shen Fang slammed the teacup on the table, making a crisp sound, and said: "When the time comes, you just need to find Wu An; after that, you'll have nothing to do with it."
I'll put on a good act in front of Wu An.
You... surely you can't even handle this little thing?
Wu An suddenly realized.
Right?
That makes sense.
One has to admit, this is very Shen Fang.
