Let's Squander A Billion First!-Chapter 1574: Black Hater Wu Di (5)

The bar owner watched Mr. Chi leave, then went inside the bar to find Chuzheng.

"Is that really your dad?"

"Biologically speaking, yes."

The bar owner raised an eyebrow and smiled, "What’s this, a rebellious phase?"

Chuzheng neither confirmed nor denied.

The original owner was indeed in a rebellious phase.

The bar owner didn’t say much more.

There isn’t much empathy in the world, and any well-intentioned advice could just make things worse.

"Do a good job."

The bar owner left leisurely.

The waiter from yesterday quickly approached, "Chuzheng... um, can I treat you to a meal?"

Chuzheng tilted her head slightly. The dim light from the bar fell on her face, outlining features that were not yet fully mature but still quite beautiful.

"I-I just wanted to thank you," the waiter said nervously.

She hadn’t had much interaction with her before. When this girl arrived, she seemed a bit unapproachable, almost as if she didn’t like to socialize and had a bit of an aloof demeanor.

She hadn’t expected Chuzheng to help her yesterday.

"No need."

Eating with a stranger? Not interested.

"..."

The waiter clutched her clothing hem, making an effort, "It won’t take much of your time, I just don’t know how else to thank you..."

[Congratulations, Miss, you have received a Thank-You Card ×1]

Chuzheng looked at the chatty girl in front of her, somewhat impatiently, "What time?"

"I don’t have much money, so I can only treat you... huh?"

The waiter quickly responded and immediately mentioned a time.

"C-Can I add you on WeChat? I can send you the address then."

Chuzheng took out her phone and let her add her.

"Thank you, I’ll get back to work now!" The waiter left happily.

Chuzheng looked at the person on her contact list, represented as a cute bunny.

She glanced at it for two seconds, then indifferently turned off the screen and put it back into her pocket.

The bar owner told Chuzheng to work well, but he didn’t expect her to extort customers again.

The bar owner sighed, "You’re short on money?"

"No."

What happened yesterday was just a strategic plan.

She’s not short of money now.

The bar owner asked, "If you’re not short on money, why extort people?"

This is a serious bar.

If this continues, how will he continue to run his business?

When people mention it: Oh, that bar that extorts people?

"I didn’t extort anyone," Chuzheng said confidently, "He ordered the drink and drank it himself. If you report it to the police, there’s security footage to prove it. How’s that extortion?"

She paused, then slowly added, "Besides, do you think he dares to call the police?"

The bar owner: "..."

The customer started getting handsy with Chuzheng first, and there’s surveillance footage; if the police get involved, he’ll be the one in trouble.

After thinking it over, the bar owner added, "You’re not allowed to take any of my collection wines!!"

He’ll have to get a lock for his display cabinet tomorrow.

The display has glass but no lock because it’s behind the bar, so he’s not worried about theft.

But no matter how well you safeguard, you can’t guard against the ’in-house thief.’

-

Yu Han, the waiter, sent her the time and location.

Chuzheng arrived right on time.

"Chuzheng, over here."

Yu Han was already there, waving to her repeatedly.

This place wasn’t far from where she lived, and business seemed good. Judging by the look, the prices should be reasonable.

"Um, I can only afford this place. You don’t mind, right?"

Her economic situation couldn’t support more upscale venues.

Chuzheng pulled out a chair to sit, expression indifferent, "No."

"That’s good."

Yu Han heaved a sigh of relief.

Yu Han let Chuzheng order, and Chuzheng wasn’t shy, casually ordering two dishes. Yu Han added two more dishes afterward.

The environment here wasn’t great, but there was a reason business was good.

The food tasted quite good.

Seeing that Chuzheng genuinely didn’t mind, Yu Han finally relaxed.

[Congratulations, Miss, you have received a Thank-You Card ×1]

Chuzheng glanced up to sweep Yu Han with a glance. Yu Han was looking at her and immediately smiled as she served her food.

Chuzheng: "..."

Should I fleece as much out of one sheep as I can, or should I take what I can get?

Getting Thank-You Cards was surprisingly easy like this.

Just after a meal, Chuzheng already had four Thank-You Cards.

So after the meal, Chuzheng offered to walk her home.

"No... no need, I live very close," Yu Han quickly waved her hand, "I can get back by myself."

Yu Han’s eyes filled with more gratitude.

She hadn’t expected someone who seemed so cold to be so nice.

[Congratulations, Miss, you have received a Thank-You Card ×1]

Chuzheng wasn’t the type to be overly enthusiastic. With Yu Han refusing, she didn’t insist further and planned to hail a cab for her on the road outside.

"You’re really nice... We all thought you were hard to approach before."

"..."

I am hard to approach, it’s not your imagination.

Just as the two were about to reach the roadside, a group of big men suddenly approached them.

They surrounded Chuzheng and Yu Han with ill intentions.

Yu Han was instantly terrified.

"Ch-Chuzheng, what do they want?"

Chuzheng didn’t recognize these people, but given how they were coming right at her, they must be targeting her specifically.

"Little girl, come with us."

Amidst the busy street, they didn’t use violence, but the threat in their eyes was clear.

Chuzheng didn’t react as they expected, with the fear they anticipated.

Instead, she stayed quite calm and first assessed them with quite a chilling stare.

"What’re you looking at? Hurry up and come with us!" one of them said impatiently, irritated by her gaze.

"Why should I go with you?"

Looking that ugly and you expect me to go with you, dream on.

The other side squinted, giving a cold laugh, "Do you not remember what you did? Offend our boss, and you think you can still have good days ahead?"

She really didn’t remember.

After all, it wasn’t just one or two people she’d offended. How would I know who sent you?

Wouldn’t it be awkward for me to guess wrong?

Chuzheng asked leisurely, "Who sent you?"

Chuzheng’s relaxed demeanor made the group of men feel something peculiar.

"Our boss..."

Before the man could finish, Chuzheng interrupted, "Who is your boss?"

Chuzheng’s tone was icy, and the man suddenly felt a more terrifying feeling than facing his own boss.

Instinctively, he answered Chuzheng, "Brother– Brother Hai."

Brother Hai?

Unfamiliar.

I could be Brother River then.

But...

Chuzheng turned and patted Yu Han on the shoulder, "You go first. I’ll go with them."

If you don’t deal with trouble all at once, it evolves into more trouble.

Better to nip the problem in the bud! 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

"Um?"

Yu Han didn’t enact some drama with an ’I’m not leaving, let’s live and die together’ scene. Instead, she gave Chuzheng a ’don’t worry, I’ll save you’ look.

Yu Han knew that staying would not help her and would only be a burden.

She’s seen her moves in the bar previously; they were impressive.

If she’s not a hindrance, she should be able to shake them off.

The key point is that by leaving now, she can immediately call the police.

Chuzheng: "??"

Thinking of something, Chuzheng quickly said, "You’re not allowed to..." Call the police.

Before she could finish saying ’call the police,’ Yu Han had already left.

"..."

Let’s just wrap this up quickly.

Yu Han wasn’t their target, and hearing that Chuzheng was willing to go with them, the men didn’t bother with her.

"This way, please."
