Chapter 349: Chapter 350: Such a Black Store!

”How much did you say?”

Qin Tian called for the bill without getting up from his seat. Upon hearing the middle-aged male owner’s words, his action of reaching for his wallet stiffened in an instant. He stared, stunned, at the restaurant owner who had already approached him.

”I said, you’ve eaten ten thousand yuan worth. Do I need to repeat myself?”

The middle-aged male owner was a chubby man in his thirties, over six feet tall, with a tiger tattoo on his shoulder, looking immensely formidable.

Seeing the cunning expression on the restaurant owner’s face, Qin Tian was somewhat at a loss for words.

Nima, just the two of us ate three meat dishes, one vegetable dish, and one tofu soup, and that costs ten thousand yuan?

Qin Tian was somewhat amused and distressed. He looked at Tang Wan, who also had a puzzled look on her face as she stared back at Qin Tian.

”Boss, this is extortion.”

Qin Tian had initially been in a great mood eating with Tang Wan, but now his mood turned somewhat depressed. Nima, even in this kind of place one encounters a ruthless owner? That’s too brazen!

”Say what you want, but you’ve eaten ten thousand yuan’s worth here. If you can’t pay up today, don’t even think about leaving this establishment!”

The male owner was in a very threatening posture, and behind him, two young men who appeared to be his helpers also surrounded them, looking menacing and effectively blocking Qin Tian.

”Opening a rip-off joint in this place, you really have some nerve.

Qin Tian grimaced and said in disbelief, ”You extort people so blatantly, aren’t you afraid I’ll call the police?”

”Go ahead, try calling the police?”

The male owner sneered, ”Do you think the police will show up? Trying to scare me with the police? Do you think I would be afraid? You ate my food, paying is naturally right!”

Tang Wan couldn’t stand it anymore. She argued, ”But our bill today should at most be one hundred yuan. How do you come up with ten thousand? Can you show us the detailed bill?”

The male owner glanced at Tang Wan, then sneered disdainfully: ”There’s no bill, just hurry up and pay, or don’t blame us for not being nice!”

”Oh, you’re not going to be nice now?”

Qin Tian gave a slight smile, then stood up from his seat, looked directly at the male owner, and said with a smile, ”What will you do if I don’t pay?”

”Tch, you’re looking for a beating, huh? Do you know this area belongs to Gao Xiong?”

The male owner’s fingers cracked threateningly, appearing ready to strike Qin Tian.

”Gao Xiong... Why aren’t you called Keelung (Chicken Cage)?”

Qin Tian grinned suddenly recalling the fat woman he had sent away in the morning, who was also surnamed Gao, Big Sister Gao, and instantly made a connection, he said with a laugh, ”So what’s your relationship with that Big Sister Gao from Tianhe Pharmaceuticals? You’re openly extorting us like this to take revenge for her, aren’t you?”

Qin Tian thought carefully, this restaurant seemed to have been operating for many years, it couldn’t possibly be a scam outlet, could it still run normally otherwise?

So, thinking about it, it could only be that the boss was deliberately targeting them.

Sure enough, after hearing Qin Tian’s words, the male boss named ”Gao Xiong” furrowed his brows, clearly not expecting Qin Tian to be so astute and to see right through everything.

”You sure talk a lot, I’m just standing up for my sister, so what?”

Gao Xiong was outrageously arrogant, his eyes brimming with layers of anger, ”This morning you slapped my sister twice, I was just about to gather people to deal with you. I didn’t expect you to come deliver yourself to the doorstep. Hmph, since you’ve come to us, today is your unlucky day!”

Before Gao Xiong could finish speaking, he saw a plump woman walking out of a room at the back of the restaurant, who was none other than Sister Gao with somewhat swollen cheeks.

”Aren’t you standing up for your sister? Fine, today my brother will stand up for me, see how you handle that,” Sister Gao said angrily, her swollen cheeks in her hands as she stared at Qin Tian.

Tang Wan saw that there were many people gathering, and they were in Gao Xiong’s restaurant, she immediately became a bit worried.

She wasn’t worried that Qin Tian couldn’t beat these people, but that he might get hurt. Of course, she was also afraid that Qin Tian would make a big scene and if the police came, it would be difficult to manage.

After all, Tang Wan was without family here, and this was the territory of the Gao siblings, things could get seriously out of hand if the situation escalated.

So, Tang Wan stood up and said, ”Sister Gao, what do you want to do?”

”Hmph, what do I want to do? Now you’re asking me what I want to do?”

Hearing Tang Wan’s conciliatory tone, Sister Gao became even more arrogant and said, ”Your brother slapped me twice today; I’m not someone just anyone can touch. One slap costs ten thousand yuan, not too expensive, right? Two slaps plus today’s meal, makes thirty thousand in total.”

Just as Tang Wan was about to speak, Sister Gao continued, ”Of course, if you think you can get away with just thirty thousand yuan, that’d be too cheap for you. At the very least, you two still need to apologize to me, show some sincerity. Maybe if you kneel and kowtow, I might ask my brother to let you go.”

”You...”

If it were just about money, Tang Wan might have considered it, but asking her and Qin Tian to kneel, especially Qin Tian, she absolutely couldn’t tolerate it.

Just as Tang Wan was about to speak, she heard Qin Tian’s cold laugh, ”Today I’m in a good mood, I don’t want to get hands bloody. Both of your conditions, as far as I’m concerned, are bullshit! What, you think we’re without support?”

Gao Xiong stepped forward and said, ”Dare to talk about people? You want a group fight, is that it? Come on!”

Gao Xiong took out his phone, wanting to show off arrogantly in front of Qin Tian, ”Come on, call whoever you have, let’s see whose group is bigger. I want to see, on my turf, what storm you can possibly stir up!”

Watching Gao Xiong’s arrogant and pretentious expression, to prevent those thugs from ambushing the unarmed Tang Wan, Qin Tian slowly took out his phone, ”Alright then, let’s both make a call and see.”

With that, Qin Tian dialed Zhang Runhao’s number, turned around, whispered a few words, and hung up within a minute.

Meanwhile, Gao Xiong calling for reinforcements echoed throughout the empty restaurant, ”Big Bear, get all our brothers here. There’s a chap here who hit my sister and wants to challenge me, we’ll show some muscle today, beat this guy senseless! Hurry up, he’s calling people too!”

Gao Xiong hung up, casually picked up a teacup from the table, took a sip, and arrogantly said, ”Let’s wait and see, whose people are more or whose people arrive faster!”

Gao Xiong ordered a couple of his men to drive out all unrelated individuals from inside and around the restaurant.

Less than two minutes after his people returned, outside the restaurant, suddenly a large group of menacing, fierce-looking people appeared!
