In This Life, I Will Extremely Pamper My Short-Lived Husband-Chapter 111: Furious Beating of a Scumbag in the Restaurant

Chapter 111: Chapter 111: Furious Beating of a Scumbag in the Restaurant

Xu Jinzhi stood up and made her way toward the door; she hadn’t taken many steps before bumping into Song You.

Song You, too, was visibly annoyed. As he saw Xu Jinzhi and prepared to say something, she had already passed by him.

By the time Song You turned to look, Xu Jinzhi had already reached Zhou Linsen, stretching out her hand to tug at his tie and pull him toward her.

Zhou Linsen, who was a full head taller than Xu Jinzhi, seemed to completely lack the ability to resist as she grasped hold of him.

Xu Jinzhi’s gaze was icy as she looked at Zhou Linsen and questioned sternly, "What do you think you’re doing?"

"Jinzhi!" Worry flashed in Song You’s eyes as she quickly turned and jogged over to them.

This was the first time in Zhou Linsen’s life he had been manhandled like this. A surge of anger welled up inside him instantly, and even though the person in front of him was a woman and even though he knew Xu Jinzhi was Song You’s best friend, Zhou Linsen couldn’t control his rage.

"Let me go!" Zhou Linsen spat through clenched teeth, his face twisted in ferocity as he raised his hand, attempting to shake Xu Jinzhi off.

However, Xu Jinzhi was far from frightened, grabbing Zhou Linsen’s raised hand and twisting it sharply.

With a "bang!" Zhou Linsen was firmly thrown to the ground by Xu Jinzhi.

Zhou Linsen curled up on the floor, moaning involuntarily from the pain, while Xu Jinzhi stood by, watching with cold eyes, and Song You anxiously asked Xu Jinzhi, "Are you okay?"

Although Song You had a strong character, she truly lacked any fighting abilities, and the difference in strength between men and women had always been there for her.

That’s why when she saw Xu Jinzhi confronting Zhou Linsen, Song You was extremely worried. Even though it was Zhou Linsen lying on the ground in agony, it was Xu Jinzhi Song You was concerned about.

Xu Jinzhi didn’t respond; she simply took Song You’s hand, had her stand behind herself, and then, looking down condescendingly at Zhou Linsen with contempt, she warned, "I’m telling you, if you bother Youyou again, I won’t let you off!"

The commotion here was so loud that many people in the restaurant had already looked over, and the waitstaff had even gone to find the manager, given that Xu Jinzhi frequented the restaurant, and the staff generally recognized her.

The manager had quickly arrived, and seeing the man lying on the floor and Xu Jinzhi next to him, he was somewhat shocked by Xu Jinzhi’s show of force.

But now was not the time for his shock; the manager recognized the man on the floor – all of them big shots, not a single one he could afford to offend.

However, since the incident occurred in his restaurant, the manager couldn’t just stand aside.

All the manager hoped was that they could calm down and talk things out. If that wasn’t possible, they at least could take their conflict outside the restaurant!

"Mr. Xu, what’s going on?" The manager asked with a slight bow, his tone respectful. His heart was bitter, yet he forced a smile on his face.

Xu Jinzhi did not even glance at him. Meanwhile, Zhou Linsen had managed to struggle to his feet, his eyes full of fury as he stared at Xu Jinzhi.

He had never been humiliated like this before. Today he had lost all his dignity here!

And it was all because of the woman in front of him.

Xu Jinzhi likewise stared at Zhou Linsen, undaunted by Zhou Linsen’s anger and without a hint of fear.

The manager quickly tried to smooth things over, stepping sideways in an attempt to shield the two ladies behind him, "Mr. Zhou, let’s discuss this calmly. You’re a respectable person, and there’s no need to quarrel with two ladies in public."

But how could Zhou Linsen, with anger clouding his judgment, listen to a restaurant manager? He thrust out his hand and pushed the manager aside, yelling, "Get lost!"

Zhou Linsen was strong, and the manager was pushed several steps backward; had it not been for other staff members supporting him, he might have already fallen.

Zhou Linsen’s expression was dark as he glared at Xu Jinzhi, as if he wanted to tear her apart.

But just as Zhou Linsen took a couple of steps forward, Song You moved ahead to stand directly in front of Xu Jinzhi.

At this moment, Song You’s face was equally stern as she said to Zhou Linsen in an ice-cold voice, "Zhou Linsen, think carefully about whether you can afford the consequences of getting violent now!"

An already furious Zhou Linsen paused at Song You’s words, hesitancy flickering in his eyes for a moment.

He was angry, but not entirely devoid of reason; he understood what Song You meant.

He wasn’t afraid to offend the Song Family, for they were also satisfied with him and were supportive of his pursuit of Song You.

But he couldn’t offend the Xu Family and the Xie Family. After all, wasn’t choosing Song You mostly because she had Xu Jinzhi as her best friend, even closer than sisters?

His anger had so quickly been ignited simply because he was getting impatient. The Zhou family wasn’t short of sons, and the competition among them was fierce.

Yet there had been no progress in his pursuit of Song You. At first, he thought Song You had shown interest in him, but somehow, Song You had suddenly changed her attitude.

He had been trying hard all this time, but to no avail. He was starting to lose his composure, which was why when Xu Jinzhi approached him, he hadn’t had time to think.

After a moment of silence, Zhou Linsen’s demeanor deflated like a punctured ball, his attitude suddenly mellowed, "I’m sorry, that was impulsive of me."

With a strained smile, Zhou Linsen awkwardly apologized to Song You and then glanced at Xu Jinzhi behind her.

Song You had mustered up the courage to step out. Hearing Zhou Linsen’s words, she also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Seizing this opportunity, Song You once more very seriously said to Zhou Linsen, "Zhou Linsen, I don’t like you. It’s not going to work between us, don’t come looking for me again."

"Youyou, I..."

"Zhou Linsen, I have no time to waste words with you here. Let me tell you, stay away from Youyou. If you can’t, I won’t hesitate to have a talk with your father."

Xu Jinzhi spoke in a chilly voice. After she was finished, she didn’t give Zhou Linsen any chance to respond and pulled Song You by the hand back to their previous seats.

Zhou Linsen stood there, the smile on his face now gone. He wasn’t afraid that Xu Jinzhi would make things difficult for him if he got together with Song You, but Xu Jinzhi really knew how to strike at one’s weakest spot!

Zhou Linsen stared at Xu Jinzhi’s retreating figure, his teeth clenched so hard that his forehead veins bulged, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
