Moonlit Calamity: The Dragon Girl's Life of Idleness is Broken

Chapter 272 Silence



Chapter 272 Silence

Upon hearing Qingying's question, Xiao Han and the others simultaneously looked at the tall, thin man.

Being stared at by so many people at the same time, the tall, thin man felt a little uneasy.

He really wanted to back out.

But when she thought of the gold bracelet in her arms, her feet seemed to be glued to the ground, and she couldn't move an inch.

Anyway, it was Boss Huang's idea; he was just a messenger.

"Hello everyone!" He first gave a smile and then politely bowed to them.

Qingying sat down: "What do you want?"

Facing the stares of the group, the tall, thin man felt a strong sense of oppression, and he nervously swallowed.

"Well, our boss would like to invite this young lady for a drink."

He looked at Long Chuqing, then at the table behind him, and pointed at Boss Huang.

Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and the boss, Mr. Huang, was also looking in their direction.

Upon seeing them looking at him, Boss Huang immediately straightened his posture, slightly controlled his facial expression, and tried his best to make himself appear taller and more dignified.

"This girl's face is truly stunning!" he thought to himself.

The tall, thin man quickly raised the two large gold chains in his hand.

“Of course, the drinks aren’t free,” the tall, thin man continued. “Our boss said that if a girl is willing to have a drink with him, these two gold chains are hers.”

He kept a smile on his face, trying his best to appear approachable, because you can't hit a smiling face!

"bass--"

Bronze remained seated, but his sword was already drawn, a glint of cold light pressed against the neck of the tall, thin man.

"Get out..." Bronze said coldly.

The tall, thin man was so frightened that he raised his hands, his face full of terror, his whole body trembling, and the gold chain in his hands also shook incessantly.

The people at the table were all looking at him with a chilling glint in their eyes, and he felt like he was about to be killed by them at any moment.

"Young master, spare me! Young master, spare me! I'm so sorry, everyone. I... I'll leave right away..."

His voice trembled, and he slowly moved backward, away from the bronze sword.

When he returned to Boss Huang's side, his legs were still trembling; he had almost wet himself in fear.

Unexpectedly, the other party drew his sword so swiftly, without uttering a single unnecessary word.

He regretted it! He shouldn't have taken the risk for that bracelet.

He glanced at the two burly men behind Boss Huang. The two men stood there like wooden figures, and hadn't come to help him at all.

The two bodyguards maintained a proper stance throughout, and they could both tell that the other person was more powerful than them and was not someone they could easily offend.

You might be able to easily pick on those thugs on the street, but it's best not to throw yourself at someone who's stronger than you.

Boss Huang remained silent, and they continued to stand there obediently.

Mr. Huang had been paying close attention to the situation at the next table, and naturally noticed their attitude.

The tall, thin man returned the gold chain and bracelet to Boss Huang: "Boss Huang, as you just saw, in my opinion, it's best if we don't provoke them."

Boss Huang wasn't the kind of person to act rashly. The fact that the other party drew his sword without saying a word meant he was no pushover and shouldn't be provoked easily.

Although he hired bodyguards, it was only for appearances and to prevent robbers; he didn't have the strength to fight to the death, nor had he experienced any particularly big scenes.

He took back the gold chain and bracelet, saying, "Never mind."

He had just seen that the other party was a group of young people and thought they posed no threat, but he did not expect their aura to be so powerful.

Mr. Huang has only made a small fortune and likes to show off, but he's actually quite timid.

It was because of the exaggerated praise from the two women that he became complacent and made a mistake in judging his own strength and charm.

Mr. Huang thought to himself: "Luckily they didn't pursue the matter further, otherwise I wouldn't know how to deal with it."

"These people have made a little money and are now swaggering around with just a few coins in their pockets. They really don't know their place."

King Xuan said dismissively.

"Miss Long, would you like me to teach him a lesson?"

"Never mind, he didn't do anything, it was just a minor incident. There are still so many guests in the lobby!"

“Come on, this wine is really good,” Long Chuqing raised his glass. “Let’s continue drinking and not let this little incident spoil the mood.”

"Stop looking!" Long Chuqing shook Xiao Han's arm: "Let's drink..."

Her cup touched Xiao Han's cup.

“Hmm…” Xiao Han turned his gaze away.

At this moment, a woman walked in. She exchanged a few words with the shopkeeper at the counter, and then looked around the lobby.

Upon seeing Mr. Huang and his group sitting to the side, her expression instantly changed from sunny to cloudy.

She lifted her skirt, her face full of anger, and strode straight toward Boss Huang's table.

"You old Huang?" The woman walked up to Boss Huang and, without saying a word, twisted his ear.

"You actually dared to go out drinking with girls behind my back! You've really gone too far!"

Her voice was deep and resonant, sounding like a shrew to Mr. Huang.

"Ouch..." Boss Huang reached out and grabbed the woman's wrist, his face contorted in pain. "Ouch...it hurts, be gentle, be gentle, it hurts..."

"There are too many people here, and it's uncomfortable to listen to. I also have to save face when I'm out in public."

Mr. Huang whispered, his ear being twisted, but he dared not resist.

The woman noticed that he had worn a lot of gold jewelry when he left home, but now there was very little left.

She angrily removed the two large gold chains and bracelets from his neck.

"What a spendthrift! At this rate, no amount of wealth will be enough for you to squander. I'm going to teach you a lesson today."

After twisting her ear, she pinched Mr. Huang's fat body hard, saying, "I'm going to beat you to death today, you good-for-nothing."

Hearing the commotion, the people in the lobby stood up, craning their necks to see what was going on and listening to the gossip.

To be able to enjoy such a wonderful performance while having a meal is truly a perfect accompaniment to drinks and food!

The bodyguards remained standing still. The person who hit Boss Huang was their boss's wife, and they dared not use violence. They still depended on their boss's wife for their salaries!

The tall, thin man didn't dare to step forward to stop them, while the two women carefully put away the gold jewelry they had obtained and quietly retreated to the side.

"Hey... karma's come so quickly," King Xuan said chuckled, with a look of schadenfreude.

"What are you looking at? Eat your food."

The woman roared at the hall, her eyes, which seemed to spit flames, sweeping around the entire hall.

Those guests who had been standing and watching the spectacle sat down after receiving the woman's death stare. The hall fell silent for a moment, as they were all afraid of being the next to be cut down.

It seems she can keep more than just Mr. Huang in check.

"Come on, let's continue drinking." King Xuan also put away his gossipy mood.

Tigers are not scary, but tigresses are quite scary, especially those unreasonable tigresses.

In the end, Boss Huang was dragged away from Zuiyunlou by the ear.
