Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 512: Chapter 511: Coerced into Drinking

Evening at Beiyuan Villa.

Fang Cui and Fang Hui had arrived early and were directly taken to the private room where the Japanese businessmen were.

These businessmen from Japan had arrived here earlier and were overjoyed when they saw Fang Hui and Fang Cui bringing Lin Qingru with them.

Lin Qingru was, after all, one of No. 7 Middle School’s beauties, very pretty, or else Liao Yuxuan would not have spent so much effort on her at the time.

Since arriving in Huaxia Country, although they had played with quite a number of girls by various means, the ones they could interact with were all of average looks; Lin Qingru’s appearance far surpassed those girls.

Moreover, the key point was that Lin Qingru was still a student, having just turned eighteen—that was the most exciting part for these Japanese men.

Manager Zhou made the introductions, and President Tanaka immediately smiled and said, ”Since you’ve come, you are all friends of ours, please, take a seat!”

Fang Cui and Fang Hui sat down directly, but Lin Qingru hesitated. The room was full of men, and the way they looked at her obviously made her extremely uncomfortable.

”Mom...” Lin Qingru pulled at Fang Cui’s sleeve and whispered, ”Can I go out and wait for you?”

Before Fang Cui could respond, Manager Zhou frowned and said, ”Miss Lin, these are all big shots from Japan. You’re not a child anymore; to come and go as you please—that would be treating my bosses with no regard, wouldn’t it?”

Fang Cui was originally planning to let her daughter leave, but after hearing Manager Zhou’s words, she did not dare suggest letting her go anymore.

”Just sit for a little while, and we’ll leave after finishing the business!” Fang Cui whispered, ”After all, it concerns your uncle’s safety—you know how good your uncle has been to you.”

Although Lin Qingru was reluctant to stay there, she had no choice but to sit down.

Fang Hui, on the other hand, didn’t care about these things; what she cared about more was the identity of the people in the room. These were individuals who could flip tables in front of Number Three, big shots indeed. Knowing such people would definitely benefit her future.

Therefore, after sitting down, Fang Hui was eager to flatter the Japanese men, incessantly using all kinds of ingratiating language.

Fang Cui was somewhat anxious, as time ticked by, she had to get things done before seven o’clock.

After waiting for a while, Fang Cui finally couldn’t bear it any longer and tugged at Fang Hui’s clothing, whispering, ”Hui, the matter at hand is important.”

It was then that Fang Hui remembered her purpose and smiled, ”President Tanaka, actually, the reason we came here is to ask a favor of you!”

”Oh? What is it?” President Tanaka put on a clueless face, but in fact, he had already been informed of the specifics by Manager Zhou.

”It’s about my second brother...” Fang Hui recounted Fang Jianhong’s situation, then whispered, ”President Tanaka, the information your group has received was sent by my second brother. Speaking of which, my brother holds great respect for your group. But now, these Huaxia people are planning to target my brother over this matter... they... they’re utterly disregarding all of you!”

”Oh, is that so?” President Tanaka frowned, appearing to be displeased.

Fang Hui chuckled inwardly; she had already thought of her words on the way over, intending to direct the blame onto these Japanese men. That way, it would be easier than asking for their help outright.

Manager Zhou quickly added, ”Miss Fang is right, it is indeed so. The news I got was passed to me by Old Fang. Ah, these Huaxia people are too much!”

”So, it seems that Mr. Fang has also been working for us!” President Tanaka nodded slowly, ”Since he has been working for us, we must certainly lend a hand!”

These words made Fang Cui and Fang Hui ecstatic, this was the very purpose of their visit.

”Thank you, thank you so much President Tanaka, you are truly a good person!” Fang Hui said excitedly, and Fang Cui also offered her thanks.

”No worries, we’re all our own people here, why stand on ceremony?” President Tanaka laughed heartily, ”I’ll arrange for someone to fetch Mr. Fang out tomorrow!”

”Tomorrow?” The three of them were startled, urgency in their voices, ”This... if it’s tomorrow, wouldn’t he have to spend another night inside? His body... I’m afraid he won’t be able to withstand it!”

”There’s nothing we can do about it!” President Tanaka shook his head, ”That guy surnamed Su now holds all the technology, and these people simply don’t give us face. Tomorrow, once our patent comes through, their technology will be useless, and we’ll regain the power of speech!”

”This...” Fang Cui and Fang Hui looked at each other, a bit unwilling, but they had no choice but to resign themselves to the situation. After all, they had to rely on these Japanese to save Fang Jianhong.

”Alright, leave this matter to us!” President Tanaka, smiling, raised his glass, ”Come, let’s have a drink first to pre-celebrate our smooth success tomorrow!”

Fang Hui promptly picked up her glass. Fang Cui hesitated but eventually took hold of her cup. As for Lin Qingru in the back, she did not raise her glass.

”Miss Lin, let’s have a drink together!” Manager Zhou said with a smile, ”It’s a good occasion, let’s celebrate together!”

”I’m sorry, my daughter doesn’t drink,” Fang Cui quickly said.

”What’s the strength of this alcohol, it’s practically like water; what’s the harm in drinking a bit?” Manager Zhou said.

”She’s still a student; she really can’t drink,” Fang Cui said.

Manager Zhou frowned slightly and said, ”Are you saying that Miss Lin isn’t giving face?”

”No...” Fang Cui quickly said, ”She really doesn’t drink, it’s not about not giving face. How about... I drink for her?”

On the other side, the Japanese men had set down their glasses, wearing cold expressions.

Manager Zhou’s face also changed, and he said sternly, ”Do you understand the rules or not? This is the first drink, personally toasted by President Tanaka. And it’s also a toast to wish for a smooth tomorrow; no matter what, everyone should drink. That would be a good omen. If someone doesn’t drink, it’s a bad omen, which is downright insulting to the host!”

”What, don’t you wish for everything to go smoothly tomorrow? Don’t you want to rescue Old Fang without a hitch? Let me tell you, if you don’t want to save someone, then fine. But, our business must go smoothly. If you really intend to be difficult, then please leave, don’t affect our luck!”

Having said that, Manager Zhou simply put down his glass as well.

Fang Cui was at a loss, while Fang Hui quietly turned to Lin Qingru, ”Qingru, just have one drink, how much can there be in one drink? Don’t you want to save your uncle? Or do you actually want to see your uncle locked up for years; would that make you happy?”

”Older sister, you’re too much. Qingru is already eighteen, she’s an adult, no longer a child. Are you really going to treat her like a child? This won’t do in society later on!”
