38: Chapter 38, That Warty Toad!
Although Fang Yi was curious about what sneaky things Shen Hongyang was up to, there was not a hint of discomfort when Binnan sat down beside him, but rather he felt quite indifferent.
Yet, to Fang Yi it felt like: Binnan, as cold as a mountain, was sitting by his side, which made him sowhat uneasy.
Everyone had arrived at their seats, and then the dishes started coming in, course after course of exquisite and rare dishes that greatly whetted Fang Yi’s appetite.
During this ti back in the country, he had always cooked for himself; now seeing a feast, he naturally got excited.
Suddenly Fang Yi thought, could it be that Binnan had taken seriously what he said last night?
But where was the beauty?
Why hadn’t he seen ten or eight beauties?
“What are you looking at?” Shen Binnan suddenly asked coldly.
“The decor here is quite luxurious…” Fang Yi skirted around the actual topic.
“I know what you want to look at,” Shen Binnan said.
Fang Yi was startled.
Then he heard Shen Binnan continue, “You asked for ten or eight girls, I didn’t have those, but I prepared two beauties for you.
I spent quite a sum, accurately speaking, it was tens of thousands, I can take you to them after dinner.”
Fang Yi was again startled, then he quickly reacted and looked at Shen Binnan, surprised, and said, “You took it seriously?”
“You spoke so freely last night, why shouldn’t I take it seriously?” Shen Binnan’s pretty face remained cold, yet there was a sowhat teasing expression.
Ye Qing clapped his forehead vigorously, feeling a great headache.
“Brother-in-law!
What’s wrong with you?” Shen Xiaoxiao saw Fang Yi’s unusual behavior and hurriedly asked.
However, because of the term “brother-in-law”, three pairs of eyes instantly turned toward her, and Shen Xiaoxiao quickly said, “Slip of the tongue…
all slips of the tongue, mom and dad, please don’t mind, sister, you too.”
Saying that, Shen Xiaoxiao playfully stuck out her tongue, bowed her head, and almost shrank under the table.
“I’m fine, let’s eat, let’s eat!” Fang Yi noticed the three people’s gazes turning toward him again and hurriedly said.
Dinner thus proceeded, but Fang Yi always felt uneasy, especially with both Shen Hongyang and Luo Sui, the couple at the dining table staring at him, making him feel no relaxation at all.
Eventually, Fang Yi couldn’t hold back, made an excuse to go to the bathroom, and quickly fled from the private room.
“Binnan, how is the company doing recently?” Shen Hongyang put down his chopsticks.
“It’s the sa as usual, no changes,” Shen Binnan answered.
“That’s good, but regarding the Black Water Alliance, you still have to be cautious.
Co back to the company in a few days,” Shen Hongyang said.
“Okay.”
“By the way,” Shen Hongyang suddenly rembered sothing and said, “Binnan, I want to talk to you.”
“About what?”
“About Fang Yi’s salary…”
…
Outside the private room, Fang Yi heaved a sigh of relief, as he not only wanted to escape the strange atmosphere in the room, but he genuinely needed to use the bathroom.
After visiting the restroom, Fang Yi ca to the sink and saw a woman, which startled him: “Oh…”
The woman, upon hearing him, looked at Fang Yi with slight surprise.
She washed her slender white hands, dried them under the hand dryer, stared at Fang Yi, and said, “I rember you, you are Shen Binnan’s bodyguard.”
Fang Yi replied indifferently: “I rember you too.” He scrutinized the woman in front of him.
Just like that day by the lake in the park, her long black hair natural and understated, no makeup just lightly applied, her facial features were exquisite and stunningly beautiful.
A black form-fitting short-sleeved dress showcased her exquisite and perfect figure, exuding a noble and generous temperant, the epito of elegance.
As Fang Yi was appraising her, Lin ngyan suddenly extended her hand, “Pleased to et you.”
Fang Yi reached out his right hand, about to shake hers, when he suddenly realized sothing and quickly switched to his left hand.
Lin ngyan frowned, “What are you doing…”
“Ah…” Fang Yi said, “Miss Lin, I won’t lie to you, I just used the restroom and haven’t washed my hands yet.
If you really insist on shaking hands…”
This guy really has thick skin!
Lin ngyan thought to herself, sneering internally as she withdrew her hand, “My na is Lin ngyan.”
“Fang Yi.”
Fang Yi replied and then went to wash his hands.
Lin ngyan waited outside and when Fang Yi ca out, he asked, “Miss Lin, are you here to dine with friends?”
“And you?” Lin ngyan returned the question without answering, “Are you here with Shen Binnan?”
Knowing that Shen Binnan didn’t get along with Lin ngyan, Fang Yi imdiately shook his head, “I’m here with friends.
It was indeed fortunate to et you today, Miss Lin.
Let’s chat another ti.”
With that, Fang Yi prepared to leave.
However, at that mont, Lin ngyan said, “Mr.
Fang, please wait a mont.”
Fang Yi stopped in his tracks, puzzled as he looked towards Lin ngyan.
Lin ngyan smiled charmingly, “I’d like to ask for a favor from Mr.
Fang, if you would be willing?”
…
…
The door to the private room was pushed open, and Fang Yi entered with Lin ngyan.
Inside by the round table sat several n.
To Fang Yi’s surprise, Li Zijie and Wang Chuye were also there, along with Lin Yuanhao…
They also saw Fang Yi who ca in with Lin ngyan, their expressions filled with surprise, then their gazes beca complex, so angry, so sneering, various emotions displayed.
Aside from those three, there was another man who seed quite out of place.
Why was he out of place?
Because he just sat there, not saying a word, not uttering a single syllable, yet he had an aura distinctly different from others, his deanor exhibiting arrogance and dominance.
Fang Yi noticed him looking at him, especially those two sharp, sword-like gazes.
Lin ngyan was quite pleased with everyone’s expressions.
She walked nonchalantly to her seat and said lightly, “Let introduce him…
His na is Fang Yi, my new boyfriend.”
Gasps!
As soon as she spoke, the faces of the four n changed drastically, as if they had seen a ghost.
The out-of-place man’s brows suddenly revealed a flash of anger.
Lin Yuanhao was the first to stand up, “Lin ngyan, what are you playing at!
When did he beco your boyfriend!”
Wang Chuye sneered, “Isn’t he Binnan’s personal bodyguard… To think he could beco the boyfriend of Lin Family’s daughter, Lin ngyan, you must be refusing Bai Shao by saying this, right?”
Li Zijie spoke softly, “Just a dog by Shen Binnan’s side!”
If one were to say who among these three was most angry at Fang Yi, it was difficult to determine, but Fang Yi thought it over; since being with Shen Binnan, it seed he had offended all these rich young masters at least once.
“Lin Yuanhao, Wang Chuye, and… Li Zijie…” Lin ngyan scanned the three of them, her tone slightly cold, “Are you insulting my new boyfriend?”
The three were about to speak, but just then, Bai Shao, who had been silent, stood up.
He walked around the table and stood facing Fang Yi, his gaze piercing as he asked without turning his head, “You’re ngyan’s new boyfriend?”
Unfazed by the intimidating gaze, Fang Yi t his sharp look and lifted the corner of his mouth, saying, “So, you’re the toad wanting to eat ngyan’s swan?”
