Chapter 299: Chapter 0299: What on Earth is Going On?
At this point, Chu Ji finally realized, "You mean someone wants to make your mortal enemies fight each other fiercely when they meet?"
Ye Xunhuan nodded, "Yes." 𝒏𝙤𝙫𝒑𝙪𝙗.𝙘𝒐𝙢
"Who would do something so vile!" Chu Ji snorted coldly, "What good would that do for them!"
Ye Xunhuan didn’t speak.
If Zhao Changsheng hadn’t reminded him earlier, with his volatile temper, a conflict really might have erupted!
But with Zhao Changsheng’s warning and Chu Ji’s words, Ye Xunhuan thought it was better to keep a low profile.
However, he wasn’t one to accept losses either; if you dare to start on the first, then I dare to respond on the fifteenth!
The man at the side couldn’t help but smack his lips after witnessing this scene, "Young master, your plan seems to have failed."
With that, the man turned and left, returning to the private room.
Once back in the room, the man said to Xu Mingzhe, "Young master, the plan has ended in failure!"
"How could it have failed?" Xu Mingzhe said incredulously, "With Mu Rulin’s temperament, coming across his enemy here, there’s no way he would back down so easily..."
"How would I know!" The man plopped down on the sofa, "In any case, it failed, and nothing happened between them."
"Maybe Mu Rulin got scared off by him?"
"Scared off?"
"That’s what I think!" The man spoke indifferently, "Just now the glass was about to hit his head, but he suddenly caught it with agility."
"That kind of reflex speed isn’t something ordinary people have."
"You’re saying he’s very skilled?"
"Nothing simple about him," the man said, taking a drag on his cigarette, "Young master, you’ve encountered a worthy opponent!"
"Agile and smart!"
The man then seemed to take pleasure in Xu Mingzhe’s misfortune as he said, "The most important thing is that you’ve been played by him several times!"
"Screw you, if you bring that up again, I’ll kill you!"
The man just chuckled, not saying anything more.
"So, it seems I need to change my strategy?"
"I’m just a brute, I can handle fighting and killing, but as for scheming, that’s a decision you have to make yourself!"
"I really don’t know why I keep you around."
"When you go to a brothel, I stand guard for you..."
Xu Mingzhe’s mouth twitched slightly, "Get lost!"
With that, Xu Mingzhe fell silent, lost in thought. He had wanted to incite a conflict between Mu Rulin and Ye Xunhuan, but now it seemed utterly impossible.
After a long while, Xu Mingzhe exhaled a troubled breath, "Mu Rulin won’t let this go easily. Since he didn’t make a move now, when the banquet’s over, it’s a different story. You follow him and see what happens!"
"Understood!"
"Prepare yourself; the banquet is about to start!" Xu Mingzhe said coldly, "I want to see what’s so special about this Ye Xunhuan!"
"To actually make someone like Mu Rulin hold back right there and then!"
Xu Mingzhe was not wrong in his thinking. Although Mu Rulin had restrained himself on the spot without causing an outburst, the moment he turned and left Ye Xunhuan’s side, he exited the banquet hall and found a secluded corner to make a phone call.
He was planning to make his move outside.
Here, he had no advantage and was no match for Ye Xunhuan; he didn’t want to invite humiliation, especially since Ye Xunhuan hadn’t pressured him.
But what about outside?
Then he would call the shots!
Ye Xunhuan might be able to fight, but he didn’t believe that a single tiger could withstand a pack of wolves!
Meanwhile, Ye Xunhuan was already itching for trouble again.
"Chu Ji, class leader, if I were to stir up something here, who would end up footing the bill?"
"That depends on how you stir it," Chu Ji said indifferently. "If you stir it well, someone will pick up the tab for you, but if not, you’ll have to foot it yourself!"
"What if, just what if, I really started something with Mu Rulin..."
Hearing Ye Xunhun’s words, Chu Ji’s heart skipped a beat, "You... didn’t you just decide to let it go?"
"I feel that’s not really my style," Ye Xunhuan said, smiling. "Like you said, how could this matter be ignored? Help me out, will you?"
"What are you planning to do?"
"The same as them!" Ye Xunhuan said with a cheerful laugh!
"Have you figured out how to do it?"
"Don’t worry, someone will pick up the bill for us!" Ye Xunhuan said confidently, "Come on, now it’s our turn to find them!"
As his voice fell, Ye Xunhuan immediately left with Chu Ji to look for Mu Rulin.
It was just a moment before Ye Xunhuan saw Mu Rulin chatting and laughing with a few others.
However, from the corner of his eye, he occasionally glanced towards Ye Xunhuan.
Upon seeing Ye Xunhuan approach with Chu Ji, Mu Rulin’s heart pounded, wondering what they were up to.
Under Mu Rulin’s puzzled gaze, Ye Xunhuan and Chu Ji reached his side.
"Young Master Mu..."
"What’s up, got an issue?"
"I was just thinking," Ye Xunhuan said. "Your lady friend almost smashed a wine glass on my head earlier. The more I think about it, the longer the odds feel—what if I hadn’t caught it?"
"You... what do you mean?"
"Chu Ji!"
Following Ye Xunhuan’s words, Chu Ji flung the wine glass in her right hand straight at Mu Rulin.
"Crash!"
The red wine from the glass splashed all over Mu Rulin’s face and body, and the glass itself struck his face.
"That’s more like it; we’re even now!" Ye Xunhuan said with a lighthearted laugh.
This sudden action stunned Mu Rulin for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses, glaring at Ye Xunhuan with fiery eyes, "You..."
"Originally, I intended to splash a woman, but as I didn’t see her, you were the next best thing. Besides, wasn’t she with you?" Ye Xunhuan said with a beaming smile. "Moreover, it’s not our fault you didn’t catch it!"
At this moment, many people’s gazes had already turned towards Ye Xunhuan and Mu Rulin.
Seeing Mu Rulin drenched in wine, their eyes widened in disbelief.
What... what on earth is happening here?
Under the scrutiny of countless eyes, Mu Rulin’s face darkened to its limits!
And just then, that man saw what was happening and paused, "Oh my, why are they going off-script now?"
No sooner had he spoken than the man hurriedly turned and headed into the private room.
Almost instantly, the man entered the room, "Big Young Master, Big Young Master, it’s going to be a real fight, a real fight! You can go and show off now!"
Upon hearing the man’s words, Xu Mingzhe was utterly puzzled, "What’s going on?"
"Ye Xunhuan and Mu Rulin have had a conflict, and Mu Rulin got drenched in wine by Chu Ji!"
After hearing this, Xu Mingzhe’s heart sank dramatically!
Ye Xunhuan, Chu Ji, what on earth are you playing at!
