Chapter 36: A Lamb Enters the Tiger's Mouth

“You still have the nerve to ask me what’s wrong?” Zhang Chunhua asked. “Did you cheat on my son?”

“A green hat? Mom, what are you talking about?!”

Snap!

Zhang Chunhua slapped Bai Jing across the face.

The relationship between Bai Jing and Zhang Chunhua, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, was just so-so, but it hadn’t reached the point of physical violence, so this was the first time Zhang Chunhua had hit Bai Jing.

Bai Jing was completely stunned by the slap.

Covering her burning cheeks, Bai Jing asked, “Mom, what did I do wrong?”

“You slut!”

“What did I do wrong?”

As soon as she asked the question again, Bai Jing’s tears immediately flowed down her cheeks.

As a woman herself, Zhang Chunhua could only think that Bai Jing’s tears were just an act of feigning helplessness, so she became even angrier.

After widening her eyes, Zhang Chunhua said, “Bai Jing, let me tell you, I know what kind of woman you are. You’re a vixen, a vixen who has my son completely bewitched. If you have any humanity left, you should divorce my son and stop harming him.”

“Mom, I really don’t understand what you’re talking about.”

“Still playing dumb?”

“Is it just because I used to be a tour guide?” Bai Jing choked up. “Although there are unspoken rules in the tour guide industry, they have nothing to do with me.”

“Do I really have to…”

Zhang Chunhua stopped there and didn’t continue.

She wanted to bring up pubic hair and underwear, but felt it was inappropriate. She thought it would be better to wait until her son came back to discuss it.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Chunhua said, “Binbin is sleeping. You can come pick him up later.”

“I want to take him away now.”

“Do whatever you want,” Zhang Chunhua said after stepping aside. “I’ve never seen such a shameless woman as you.”

Bai Jing didn’t want to argue with her mother-in-law, so she went inside without saying a word.

After picking up her still-sleepy son, Bai Jing left.

As soon as Bai Jing stepped into the elevator, Zhang Chunhua spat outside the door.

“You slut! I really don’t know what sins our Han family has committed!”

A little after five o’clock, Han An used Gaode Maps to search for Jinrong Restaurant.

After realizing that the location was somewhat remote, Han An couldn’t help but feel uneasy.

Perhaps worried about being recognized by Li Fulong, Han An even bought a gray fisherman’s hat.

At 5:30, Han An and Xu Yina took a taxi together to Jinrong Restaurant.

After getting off the bus, Han An went inside first.

What Han An found strange was that there wasn’t a single customer in the restaurant.

Looking at Han An wearing a fisherman’s hat, the waiter asked, “How many are in your party?”

“It’s just me.”

“Then let’s sit in the lobby. There are plenty of seats, so please make yourself at home.”

After finding a seat near the stairs leading to the second floor, Han An accepted the menu from the waiter.

Since he planned to celebrate with Xu Yina at a bar after winning over Li Fulong, Han An only ordered a glass of kiwi juice.

“This one will do,” Han An said. “My friend might be coming over, so I’ll wait a bit longer.”

“OK.”

After taking the menu, the waiter walked away.

About a minute later, Xu Yina walked in.

After glancing at Han An, Xu Yina went up to the second floor.

Han An had told Xu Yina that if she encountered danger, she should just shout loudly and he would immediately come upstairs.

If it’s inconvenient to shout, you can tell him via WeChat.

Nevertheless, Han An was still particularly worried.

According to the original plan, he was going to wait for Xu Yina to send a WeChat message saying that everything was fine before he would go upstairs to find Li Fulong.

However, worried about Xu Yina’s safety, Han An decided to go upstairs immediately after Li Fulong did!

After capturing Li Fulong, Han An can then interrogate him about his relationship with his wife!

Five minutes later, Han An suddenly clenched his fist.

Because he saw Li Fulong had already entered the restaurant.

To Han An’s astonishment, Li Fulong was accompanied by two bodyguards!

Hold!

During lunch with Xu Yina, Han An expressed his concern that Li Fulong might bring people over.

At that time, Xu Yina said that Li Fulong would not bring a third wheel, but in reality, he brought two bodyguards with him!

Looking at Li Fulong, who was about the same height as Eric Tsang but a size bigger, Han An really wanted to rush over and beat Li Fulong up!

“Boss, you’re here!”

“You little show-off, did you miss me?”

“I’m not a show-off.”

“What a show-off, huh?”

“screw you!”

After flirting with the receptionist, Li Fulong and his two bodyguards went upstairs.

Picking up his phone, Han An quickly sent a WeChat message to Xu Yina.

“Yina, Li Fulong brought two people with him. If it doesn’t work, just let me go up.”

“Uh-huh.”

Despite receiving Xu Yina’s WeChat message, Han An’s eyelids kept twitching, as if something bad was about to happen. He wasn’t sure if he could beat the two bodyguards, but he knew that the longer it dragged on, the less safe Xu Yina would be.

If Li Fulong had come by himself, things would have been much easier!

How awful!

Just then, Han An heard the sound of something breaking coming from room 203!

Upon hearing this, Han An immediately stood up and went upstairs.

Because the door to room 203 was closed, Han An, who was worried about Xu Yina’s safety, called Xu Yina directly.

It’s better to make a phone call than to kick the door open.

He could hear the phone ringing inside, but Xu Yina didn’t answer it at all!

Seeing this, Han An kicked the door open.

“Hehe,” Li Fulong chuckled, “Although this door isn’t worth much, Mr. Han, it’s really impolite of you to kick it like that. If you want to have dinner with us, you should just knock. Is it necessary to scare people like this?”

Li Fulong was sitting back in a chair, while Xu Yina was leaning against the wall, with a bodyguard choking her.

As for the other bodyguard, he stood proudly beside Li Fulong.

“Boss, what happened?”

“It’s alright,” Li Fulong said. “Go downstairs and entertain the guests. Don’t worry about what’s going on upstairs.”

“OK.”

After answering, the receptionist went downstairs.

“Do you know who I am?”

“Of course I know,” Li Fulong said, crossing his legs. “Your name is Han An, you’re Jingjing’s husband, and you own a hot pot restaurant in Luohu District, Shenzhen. To be honest, compared to Chongqing hot pot, the broth in your restaurant is a bit lacking. Luckily you didn’t open it in Chongqing, or it would definitely have gone out of business by now.”

“My hot pot broth is made to suit the Cantonese taste; it’s called ‘when in Rome, do as the Romans do’,” Han An suddenly asked, his brow furrowing. “Have you ever been to my shop?”

“Of course I’ve been there. I even ordered a spicy hot pot,” Li Fulong said with a smile that revealed two gold teeth. “I guess you don’t remember this because I forgot to introduce myself.”

When did this happen?

“Do I need to tell you? I go to your place to support Jingjing, not to support you.”

“You bastard!”

“What? You want to get rough?” Li Fulong glanced at Xu Yina and said, “If you don’t want her to get hurt, you’d better behave. And let me tell you, I’m the owner of this shop. I can easily call out and a bunch of people will come to serve you. Do you think I’m stupid? You think I’ll take the bait just because you send a pretty girl as bait? And then let you slaughter me?”

How did you know?
