Chapter 174
"Public company money?"
"Yo, it's just a meal and you're embezzling the company's money?"
"Tsk, this chairman is really a disgrace!"
"It's not a disgrace, it's a crime. Privately embezzling the company's public money, that's a business crime!"
The crowd whispered and looked at Lin Mo and Xu Hanxia with even more contempt.
Xu Hanxia's face was swollen red, she just wanted to pay the money first and hurry up and take Lin Mo away.
She didn't expect such a thing to happen, and now things are even more troublesome.
"Sister Hanxia, you've even started using the company's public money to keep a little white boy?"
"It's just raising a little white boy, why be so generous? Can't you eat enough ramen on the street?"
"You've just become chairman and you're splurging so much. I don't think Xu Pharmaceutical will last long in your hands!"
Xu Lingling mocked with a smile.
Xu Hanxia gritted her teeth and didn't say anything, Lin Mo's face was cold: "Xu Lingling, get out of my way, you don't have the right to speak here!"
"Zhou Ze, I'm giving you a chance."
"Admit this matter yourself, and also, apologise to my wife. I can pretend that what happened today never happened!"
Zhou Ze was furious and laughed wildly, "Hahahaha ......"
"Did you guys hear what he said?"
"He gave me a chance?"
The crowd around them all burst into laughter, Lin Mo's words were simply ridiculous.
"Lin Mo, I'm giving you a chance now."
"Kneel down immediately, kowtow to me three times, and then get out!"
"I can settle this matter slowly with my wife."
"Otherwise, you will not be able to walk out of here today!"
After Zhou Ze finished speaking, he waved his hand violently, and those dog-legged men immediately rushed up and surrounded Lin Mo and Xu Hanxia in the middle.
Lin Mo clenched his fists, he was already up for the kill.
At that moment, the door of the restaurant was suddenly pushed open and a stunningly beautiful woman walked in, and it was none other than Song Zhilan!
When they saw Song Zhilan, the eyes of everyone in the room went straight.
In terms of looks, Song Zhilan was on a par with Xu Hanxia.
However, the aura of Song Zhilan, who had been in a high position for a long time, had the feel of a queen.
This kind of woman is a fatal attraction to men!
Compared to her, Xu Hanxia was more like a little sister next door, innocent and beautiful.
When he saw Song Zhilan, Zhou Ze's face also changed and he hurriedly ran over, "Sister Lan, you ...... you're here?"
Song Zhilan simply ignored him as she swept her gaze across the room and finally landed on Lin Mo, and was instantly delighted.
She walked in front of Lin Mo with big steps and said excitedly, "Mr. Lin, I finally found you!"
Everyone in the room froze, what was this?
Such a stunning beauty was actually running to Lin Mo?
Xu Hanxia was also stunned, who was this? How did she know Lin Mo?
Perhaps it was a woman's intuition, she was instinctively a little wary of Song Zhilan.
Lin Mo was also puzzled: "You are?"
That night, he was so busy saving people that he didn't pay attention to Song Zhilan's appearance.
Moreover, at that time, Song Zhilan was draped in hair and sweating in a hurry, where was this appearance now?
Song Zhilan smiled and told him what had happened before. Lin Mo suddenly understood, and Xu Hanxia's guard went away a bit.
Lin Mo: "So it's you!"
"How is your daughter?"
Song Zhilan was full of joy: "Thanks to Mr. Lin's blessing, she's fine now."
"Moreover, the medicine is really effective, she hasn't been sick recently either!"
Lin Mo nodded his head, "That's good."
Song Zhilan said respectfully, "Mr. Lin, I was in such a hurry before that I didn't even have time to thank you."
"I wonder if you have time, I would like to treat you to a meal?"
Lin Mo glanced at Xu Hanxia, who nodded slightly.
Lin Mo also nodded with a light smile, "Okay."
"However, you'll have to wait a little."
"I still have a bit of business here, let's deal with it afterwards."
Song Zhilan couldn't help but be surprised, "Mr. Lin, what's going on here?"
"Do you need my help?"
Chapter 175
Xu Lingling sneered, "Yo, not a big mouth!"
"Don't even know what's going on, and you dare to yell about helping?"
"Hey, bitch, are you sure, you want to help them?"
Xu Lingling had followed a few men in, one of whom was the man she had her heart set on.
However, this man had been fixing his gaze on Song Zhilan after she came in, which made her very unhappy.
Therefore, she spoke with resentment and cursed directly.
Song Zhilan's eyebrows furrowed, in this Guangyang City, no one dared to insult her like this!
At the back, Zhou Ze just came over and heard Xu Lingling's words and was directly scared silly.
Song Zhilan said in a cold voice, "No need to be sure!"
"Mr. Lin is my benefactor, what happens to him, is my business!"
"No matter what happens, I will help Mr. Lin!"
Xu Lingling laughed coldly, "That's a statement, those who don't know, would think you two have some kind of adulterous affair!"
Song Zhilan's face was cold: "Watch what you say!"
Xu Lingling looked disdainful: "Hmph, you can do it, why should I pay attention?"
Song Zhilan: "What did I do?"
Xu Lingling: "Speaking up for these two scoundrels who don't pay for their meals, what do you think you've done?"
"However, this also validates an old saying. Things come in groups, people come in groups!"
"It's true that next to scoundrels, always gather trash."
Song Zhilan's face sank like water, and suddenly threw a slap at Xu Lingling's face, causing Xu Lingling to stagger.
"Bitch, you dare to hit me!"
Xu Lingling was furious and grabbed the bottle on the table next to her and rushed over.
Song Zhilan didn't say anything, she lifted her foot and kicked Xu Lingling to the ground.
Xu Lingling was furious at the loss and shouted, "What are you doing?"
"Beat this bitch to death!"
A few people around Xu Lingling immediately surrounded her, and at that moment, Zhou Ze rushed over with a single step and shouted, "Stop fucking around!"
"Whoever dares to touch my sister Lan, I'll kill him today!"
Xu Lingling's friends froze, and one of them whispered, "Young Zhou, we ...... are on your side!"
Zhou Ze's face was righteous: "Stand up for you!"
"Do you guys know what my sister Lan's status is?"
"A bunch of rubbish, don't even go out and ask around, who is Song Zhilan in Guangyang City!"
"How dare you provoke my sister Lan, I think you are tired of living!"
The moment these words were spoken, there was an uproar all around, and everyone was stunned.
The three words, Song Zhi Lan, were a legend in Guangyang City.
The daughter of the Song family, the strongest of the ten families, was not qualified to be in charge of the Song family's industries because of her status as a woman.
However, the business empire she built with her own strength was not at all inferior to that of the Song family.
Among the women of Guangyang City, she was the only one who could be on a par with the heads of the ten major families.
Even Nanba Tian praised Song Zhilan when he mentioned her!
It could be said that the three words Song Zhilan alone represented a large family.
No wonder Zhou Ze was so terrified when he saw her!
Zhou Ze was just the Zhou family's heir, while Song Zhilan, on the other hand, was a figure that could be on par with the Zhou family's old man.
What's more, the Zhou family was far less powerful than the Song family.
Could Zhou Ze not panic?
Xu Lingling was paralyzed with fear. The Xu family was just a small family, and even Zhou Ze could crush her to death at will.
As for Song Zhilan, even if she wanted to destroy the entire Xu family, it would be as easy as a snap!
Thinking about what she had just said, Xu Lingling only had the feeling that she wanted to die.
Song Zhilan glanced at Zhou Ze, "What happened?"
Zhou Ze had a sarcastic smile on his face, "Nothing, nothing."
"Sister Lan, you guys go and eat first, I'll take care of things over here."
"Don't worry, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer!"
Chapter 176
Song Zhilan was not so easily fooled, she walked over to Xu Lingling, "Tell me, what happened?"
Xu Lingling trembled and dared not speak.
Song Zhilan's face turned cold: "Tell me clearly, and I can spare you today."
Xu Lingling was pardoned and hurriedly told her what had just happened.
After listening, Song Zhilan turned directly to Zhou Ze.
Zhou Ze said in a trembling voice, "Sister Lan, this ...... is all a small matter ......"
"This meal, it's on me, it's on me ......"
Song Zhi Lan said in a deep voice, "Zhou Ze, are you looking down on me?"
Zhou Ze was anxious: "Sister Lan, I ...... I definitely don't mean that ......"
Song Zhilan: "Then why are you insulting me like this?"
"You think I can't afford to pay for a meal?"
Zhou Ze was sweating profusely, "I ...... I didn't ...... mean that ......"
"Sister Lan you usually take care of me so much, I ...... how can I ask you for money?"
Song Zhilan had a disdainful look on her face, "No need for nonsense, say it, how much!"
Zhou Ze's face was embarrassed and he couldn't answer.
Song Zhilan said angrily, "I'm asking you, how much is it!"
Zhou Ze hurriedly said, "A total of ...... a total of five hundred and seven ......"
The crowd around the room burst into a frenzy, just now it was 570,000, but now it's five hundred and seven?
Song Zhilan slowly said, "Five hundred and seven?"
"Are you kidding me?"
"A bottle of Romanee Conti would cost three or four hundred thousand."
"Zhou Ze, do you think I haven't had this kind of high-end red wine before?"
Zhou Ze looked helpless and said in a trembling voice, "Sister Lan, you ...... you should not make fun of me ......"
"As you know, I ...... don't have any Romanee Conti here."
"These, all ...... are fake and worthless ......"
The moment this statement was made, the crowd around immediately coaxed.
It feels like they were just fooling people!
What Australian abalone, what Kobe beef, what Caspian Sea caviar, all of them are fake?
Just now, he had sworn to make Lin Mo kneel down and kowtow, but he ended up with a facepalm.
It turns out that the real scoundrel is not Lin Mo and Xu Hanxia, but this Zhou Ze!
Song Zhilan: "It's all fake, then how did you get this on your menu?"
"Zhou Ze, as a member of the Zhou family, you wouldn't be doing business and faking it, would you?"
Zhou Ze looked embarrassed, "Sister Lan, this ...... this is actually a little joke I made with them ......"
The crowd was raucous, are you joking?
The aggressive stance just now doesn't look like a joke!
Song Zhilan's face was icy cold: "Zhou Ze, in the end is a joke, or deliberately pitted, you know clearly in your own heart!"
"Mr. Lin is my benefactor, his business is my business!"
"This time, I hope you can sincerely apologize to Mr. Lin and Mrs. Lin and gain their forgiveness!"
Zhou Ze's face was embarrassed, his public admission that he was the one who had played the rogue had already caused him to be embarrassed.
If he were to apologise to Lin Mo and Xu Hanxia, then what face would he have in the future?
Zhou Ze whispered, "Sister Lan, this is just a little joke, there's no need to be like this."
Song Zhilan's face was icy cold, "I don't want to talk nonsense, apologise immediately!"
Zhou Ze clenched his teeth and huffed, "Sister Lan, I am giving you face by respectfully calling you Sister Lan."
"But, you can't throw my face on the ground and stomp on it either!"
"As the heir of the Zhou family, don't I want to lose face?"
Song Zhilan gave Zhou Ze a deep look, "Zhou Ze, when you say that, do you think that I'm being too lenient?"
"That's right, you are a member of the Zhou family, I indeed can't control the affairs of your Zhou family."
"However, the heir of the top ten families in Guangyang City can definitely not be a rogue villain either!"
"If you don't even have the courage to apologise, I can go and suggest to Master Zhou that the Zhou family change its heir."
"You have quite a few brothers anyway!"
