Chapter 128
Xu Hai was so terrified, he started coughing. What if Chu Feng called for the manager again and blew another eighty million or so on the nightclub, like he did with the cafe? He may have a thick skin, but even he couldn’t take such a hit.
Chu Feng nodded and smiled in an almost unnoticeable way. “Yes, Young Master Xu is quite wealthy. In fact, I bear witness to the extent of it this afternoon.” Chu Feng’s double entendre only made Xu Hai’s face burn even more with shame. Luckily, the nightclub lighting was dim enough that no one noticed how much he wanted to find a hole and crawl into it.
After that minor hiccup, everyone in the room continued to surround Sun Mingxuan like the stars surrounding the moon, sending him praise and flattery that went straight to his head. “My friends, fate has brought us all here today and as such, let’s raise our glasses together for a toast.” Sun Mingxuan lifted his glass, looking like a ringleader as he looked straight at Chu Feng and commanded him, “Chu Feng, come fill our glasses.”
The servers were present in that lounge, so Sun Mingxuan’s command was clearly meant to humiliate Chu Feng. The others noticed this and smiled amusedly, waiting for Chu Feng’s humiliation. Zhou Ying frowned, thinking that her fiance had gone a little too far, but ultimately lowered her head and said nothing.
Without looking at him, Chu Feng answered, “You all aren’t fit to make me do that.” After all, he was the one and only Dragon Soul’s God of War. Never mind their fathers, not even their grandfathers, were fit to be served by him in such a manner. Besides, he wasn’t here to become a sounding board for Sun Mingxuan; he’d shown him enough respect by listening to his showboating.
Sun Mingxuan’s face fell when he heard this. “Chu Feng, what do you mean by that? You arrived the latest, so you should fill our glasses as an apology. Is there something wrong with that?”
Zhou Ying’s expression had also become cold. “Chu Feng, Mingxuan is just looking out for you because everyone’s getting displeased.”
Everyone chimed in, each one of them sounded hostile. “Yeah! We waited in vain for a whole hour without complaint, so who’s got the moral high ground here?”
“I know, right? Look at his attitude!”
“If it weren’t for Young Master Sun, who’d even spare you a second glance?”
The crowd was getting annoyed; this man had much more of an attitude than his talent justified. He even had a beautiful girlfriend like Yun Muqing, so they were all quite jealous of him.
“If you all waited for so long, then that’s on you. I have nothing to do with this.” Chu Feng remained unmoved and continued sipping his tea, deliberately ignoring them.
At this point, Sun Mingxuan and the others were fuming. How dare this man insist he was in the right after being so late to arrive?
“Alright, I’ll do it.” Yun Muqing immediately rose when she sensed that the atmosphere was souring. She began pouring wine in everyone’s glasses generously. “I’m sorry Chu Feng was late because of me. I do hope this doesn’t dampen your spirits.”
As she said this, Yun Muqing reached out to squeeze Chu Feng's hand and lightly shook her head, a silent plea for him to stop escalating the situation. Chu Feng smiled with resignation, then obeyed. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
Yun Muqing's initiative was irreproachable to Sun Mingxuan and the others, so they had no choice but to drop the matter. Even so, they were envious that a mere nobody like Chu Feng could score a perfect woman like Yun Muqing, and felt that God was being unfair. So, even as everyone mingled and laughed together, Chu Feng found himself excluded from the fun; it was as if everyone felt ashamed to be associated with him.
"Hmph, you insolent people are blind to his true power. Just wait until he reveals himself, and you all will soon beg for his mercy." Xu Hai was grinning maliciously on the sidelines, eagerly anticipating their suffering. However, he still felt awfully jealous when he glanced at Yun Muqing, who was by Chu Feng's side. As if it wasn't enough that this man had a Western beauty such as Heather by his side, now he has a perfect girlfriend too? Truly, he was blessed.
