55: Chapter 55 The Cost of Showing Off Is Too High!

Shock!

Panic!

Sen, squashed under Wu Jie’s foot, now deeply regretted his choices.

Earlier on the phone, he had thought Fang Yu was joking.

He was a professional boxer too, lightweight, sure, but not weak by any means – still, he was no match for crushing a beer bottle with his bare hands.

Now…

Not only had he seen it with his own eyes, but he also had his face covered in shards of glass and beer.

What rendered him speechless was the fact that the other party even asked if he was satisfied.

Damn!

He had really kicked an iron plate this time, encountered someone tough!

“Satisfied…

Satisfied!

Of course, I’m satisfied!”

As Wu Jie extended his right hand, Tang Xin immediately and delicately wiped it with a tissue, her eyes full of confusion and admiration.

“Are you moved then?”

“No!

I dare not move!”

“What?

You want me to crush another bottle to make you moved, is that it?”

“Ah?

No…

no need!

I…

I was wrong, bro!

I was just here to…

to make up the numbers!”

Sen, with his neck pinned down, was completely immobilized.

His face and head were covered in bits of glass and foam, his eyes too gunky to open.

“Here to make up the numbers?” Wu Jie scoffed with a cold gaze.

“In the middle of the night, do you really need five people just for that?”

“No, it’s not…

we heard about your ability to crush beer bottles with your hands and came to pay our respects!”

Sen argued clumsily.

Wu Jie laughed and said, “I see.

Now that you’ve seen the show, a little performance fee shouldn’t be a problem, right?”

“No problem!

Of course, no problem!”

Sen agreed readily.

Tang Xin got the hint instantly.

She quickly called the waiter through the multimedia panel.

The waiter arrived shortly.

Upon entering and seeing the scene, he wasn’t surprised – this wasn’t the first case of rowdiness with alcohol.

“Room 501, 502, and 503, check out!”

“One moment, please!”

The waiter immediately took out his tablet and calculated the bill.

“The total consumption for the three rooms is 117,580 yuan.

Would you like to pay by card, WeChat, Alipay, or cash?”

Pfftt!

Sen spat blood.

Damn!

Wasn’t this performance fee for watching a beer bottle get crushed too expensive?

They only charged Fang Yu a deposit of 50,000 yuan for their trip.

If they paid this bill, wouldn’t they be in the red by almost 70,000 yuan?

But…

did he dare not to pay?

The bottle shards and beer still stuck to his face were a violent testimony.

If he dared to disagree even a little, his head might be the next thing getting crushed, right?

“The performance fee isn’t a problem, is it?”

“No!

Not a problem at all!!”

Wu Jie stepped back, and as Sen got up, he didn’t even dare to wipe off the beer, hastily paying with his phone’s QR code.

“The payment is received.

If you need a receipt, we can mail it…”

“No, no need!”

Sen immediately turned around, bowing and scraping with a smile.

“I was blind and did not recognize Mount Tai, I won’t disturb your enjoyment any longer!”

With that, they scurried away without further delay.

As soon as the waiter left, the mood in the room dropped to freezing.

Fang Yu’s current mood was utterly embarrassing.

Hire some help?

Hired, and then what?

Got thrashed!

Six people came, and not one lasted a second against Wu Jie, all completely put in their place.

And what of being champions at the provincial sports meeting?

If it weren’t for visiting the boxing gym, seeing the other party’s trophies, and witnessing his agile skills during teaching…

Fang Yu might have thought he had encountered a fraud.

Money was spent, but nothing got done.

What the hell do we do now?

That bunch of people came quickly and left just as fast.

They hadn’t even been outside for a minute before Fang Yu received a message.

After sneaking a peek, Fang Yu was seriously pissed off.

“Transfer another seventy thousand, or this isn’t over!”

Fuck me!

Fang Yu really wanted to immediately call and curse them out.

Here come six menacing figures, unable to knock Wu Jie out flat, not even staying for a full minute, and now demanding a hundred and twenty thousand.

Isn’t that appearance fee a bit too steep?

But did he dare not to pay?

Those with Sen could handle Wu Jie with difficulty, but to settle Fang Yu?

That’d be like playing a game.

Without a word, Fang Yu placed his phone on the dinner table for Su Geng to see the message too.

Su Geng wasn’t in the mood to look at messages; he sat there, dumbfounded and unmoving as if he’d gone stupid.

That’s right!

Anyone would be dumbstruck in this situation.

Getting kicked flying was one thing.

But how could the experts he paid for get instantaneously kneeled?

That’s just unscientific!

The boyfriend Tang Xin found wasn’t some loser; he was practically a martial arts master!

What should he do now?

Su Geng had no idea.

Apologetically, admitting wrong was out of the question.

He couldn’t possibly lose face and apologize in this lifetime.

And to call the police?

To say he’d been beaten and illegally detained?

That was even more impossible.

If word got out, Su Geng might as well not continue to be involved in anything.

And just as he was clueless about how to end this…

Tang Xin spoke up.

“Mr.

Su, don’t just stand there!

You still have a chance, keep calling people!”

“After all, the other classmates are still singing and having fun, we’ve got nothing better to do!”

“I really want to see what kind of lousy people you can bring here today.”

Grinding his teeth, Su Geng let out a heavy snort.

“Don’t get too cocky over there!”

“Am I being arrogant?

Am I gloating?”

Tang Xin laughed coldly, “Please!

It’s you who got furious from embarrassment and wanted to start a fight, and it’s you who called people over to make a fool of yourself.

Jie and I invited you to dinner and singing; you repay us like this?

I should be the one to settle the score with you!!”

Fang Yu couldn’t stand watching anymore.

“Mr.

Su, just apologize!

Let’s just say tonight was a joke, a prank gone wrong!”

Su Geng didn’t speak.

He was stuck between a rock and a hard place, too proud to show his distress.

He’d love to get out of there immediately, but with Wu Jie sitting on the sofa near the door, there was no way he could push through.

“A joke?

Then I’ll make a joke too!”

Tang Xin stood up, laughing, “I come from a poor family.

Tonight I spent quite a bit of money since I’m treating you to dinner and singing.”

“Mr.

Su, you boastfully claimed yourself as a second-generation rich kid, a dandy with plenty of money, and snidely remarked my boyfriend as a poor loser.

So why don’t you pull out a few million to help us poor folks out?”

Wow!

With that, Wu Jie had an instant feeling of ‘Tang Xiao reincarnated.’

“Holy shit!

Are both sisters like this?”

“But Tang Xin is still a bit tender, only asking for a few million, not as ruthless as Tang Xiao!”

At that moment, Su Geng exploded with rage.

“Are you trying to extort me?

Believe it or not, I’ll call the cops right now!”

“Go ahead!

I’d love for you to call!”

Tang Xin scoffed, “You think I really want your dirty money?

With the allowance given by your parents, aside from bingeing and splurging, how much could you possibly save?”

“Besides, do you even have any money left?

The appearance fee for those thugs you called just now wasn’t cheap, right?

I’m really curious whether you can afford the final payment?

Oh, I almost forgot, you still have a car to sell!

But the cost of showing off is quite hefty, isn’t it?”

Laughing coldly, Tang Xin elegantly turned around and intertwined her fingers with Wu Jie’s.

Her eyes flirtatious, her voice soft and alluring.

“Let’s go, Jie.

It’s time for us to go home and sleep!”
