Chapter 293: Chapter 293: Then Kick Them Out
The waiter froze for a moment, then turned and headed for the kitchen.
"Manager Liu, that’s the situation." The waiter repeated what the bearded man had said.
"The Yang Family from An City?"
Liu Fei let out a cold laugh. "Tell him I don’t have time to go out. Besides, we’re out of ingredients for today’s specials. Tell them to find another place to eat."
He was currently supervising the head chef, getting ready to personally deliver the six specialty dishes to the VIP suite. He couldn’t be bothered with some Yang Family from An City.
"Manager Liu, what if they refuse to let it go?" the waiter asked, scratching his head.
"Then throw them out," Liu Fei said with a wave of his hand.
"Understood." The waiter nodded and walked away.
Soon, the waiter returned to the main hall. "Gentlemen, our Manager Liu is too busy to come out and greet you today. As for the specialty dishes, I’m very sorry, but we’ve been so busy that we’ve run out of ingredients. Please find another restaurant."
"You’re telling us to go somewhere else?"
"Didn’t you tell your manager we’re from the Yang Family of An City?"
"How outrageous!"
"One minute. If your manager isn’t out here in one minute, don’t blame us for tearing this Old Tavern of yours down."
The bearded man didn’t say a word, just coldly puffed on his cigar as the four men beside him began to slam their hands on the table one by one.
"Gentlemen, are you here looking for trouble?" The waiter’s expression turned cold.
"That’s right, we’re here to cause trouble!" one of them said defiantly.
"The Yang Family from An City is certainly arrogant, daring to cause trouble in an establishment of the Central State Mu Family. In that case, don’t blame us for not holding back!" As he spoke, the waiter pressed the button on his walkie-talkie.
The bearded man finally looked up, sweeping a cold gaze over the waiter. "So what if you’re the Mu Family of Central State? You’re nothing but a second-rate clan. My Yang Family of An City is a first-class Martial Arts Clan. Why would we be afraid of your Mu Family?"
"Is that so?"
Just then, Liu Fei walked out carrying a platter with a specialty dish. "As the saying goes, even a mighty dragon can’t crush a local snake. You’ve come to the wrong place."
"Manager Liu, I’ve already called for backup," the waiter said, hurrying over.
"You’re the manager here? Good!"
The bearded man slammed the table and stood up. "Then today, our Yang Family of An City will be the ones to put you local snakes in your place."
"Fine. Give me one minute."
Liu Fei really didn’t want to deal with this group. His duty was to deliver the specialty dish to the private room where Jiang Xinghai and his two companions were.
And just like that, under the watchful eyes of the bearded man and his group, Liu Fei carried the dish and started up the stairs.
"You have one minute. After that, you will regret ignoring the An City Yang Family for the rest of your life." The bearded man sat down again, taking a harsh drag from his cigar.
"Damn it, who the hell does he think he is?"
"Brother Blade, why don’t we just search the place? No need to be so polite, right?"
"Yeah, Brother Blade. The Young Master was taken straight into surgery after getting to the hospital. We need to hurry up."
"Shut the fuck up, all of you."
The bearded man scanned his four companions. "I’m more anxious about this than any of you. But the Young Master’s message said that this Jiang Xinghai guy is tricky. We should avoid using force if possible. We have to capture him alive, understand?"
The men didn’t dare to say another word.
Soon, Liu Fei came back down the stairs.
"Gentlemen, wait a little longer."
Without even glancing at the bearded man and his group, Liu Fei ducked back into the kitchen, emerging again with another platter and heading upstairs.
"Shit!"
The bearded man couldn’t take it anymore. He shot to his feet and followed him.
His four companions followed close behind.
"The Yang Family of An City, right? Spit it out. What do you want from me?"
Liu Fei said impatiently as he carried the dish up the stairs.
"Out of respect for your Mu Family, we’ve been very polite since we arrived. We only came to you because we need your help finding someone," the bearded man said, following closely behind Liu Fei.
"This is what you call polite?"
Liu Fei remained dismissive and continued up the stairs.
Don’t be fooled by his youth—he was not yet thirty, but he was already a First-Order Master!
He had sensed the bearded man’s strength earlier; it was the same as his own.
"Manager Liu!" frёewebηovel.cѳm
The bearded man suddenly executed an agile flip, blocking Liu Fei’s path. "Your repeated ignorance of my presence has made me furious. If you don’t stop right now, my Yang Family can and will destroy your Mu Family!"
"Insolent!" Liu Fei’s anger flared.
The bearded man managed to calm down. After all, his Yang Family was from out of town; challenging the local Mu Family would still be difficult. "My young master attends Central State University," he began. "He was just severely injured by someone, and I’m only here to find that person."
"Oh? And who are you looking for?" Liu Fei was suddenly interested.
’Someone severely injured the young master of the An City Yang Family, and they’re dining here in the Old Tavern?’
"Jiang Xinghai!"
The bearded man said through gritted teeth, "Unfortunately, I only know his name. I’m not sure what he looks like. That’s why I came to you to solve this. It’s simple: let me see your surveillance footage."
"You want to see the footage?"
Liu Fei smirked and raised an eyebrow. "If I’m not mistaken, this Jiang Xinghai you’re looking for... he’s with two women, right?" frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
"You know them?" A smile finally appeared on the bearded man’s face.
