Super Soldier in the City

Chapter 1828 - 1889: Watching the Boasting with a Smile

"Honey, I haven’t seen Feng’er in a long time, I’m not really sure about her situation now, in case... if her boyfriend says something wrong, please be magnanimous." Song Lianyao leaned over, with a pitiful expression on her face, of course, she was pretending, during a shift in gears, Li Yifei raised his hand to pinch her cheek, then said, "Don’t worry, am I the kind of person who likes to get angry for no reason? Your friend is quite innocent, hehe."Song Lianyao made a kissing sound, pretended to kiss Li Yifei, then sighed softly and said, "Friends, friends, see each other often, interact often, otherwise there will be a sense of unfamiliarity, I thought the two of us wouldn’t have that, but in the end..."

"What’s the big deal, the more you think about it, the more unfamiliar it feels. Try to think less about it, and then there will be more happiness."

"Yeah, I won’t think about it that much, having a meal and chatting about the past isn’t bad either." Song Lianyao nodded vigorously.

Two cars, one after the other, entered the Grand Hotel, one of the best hotels in the area, definitely suitable for hosting dinners, even Qin Muchu himself wouldn’t come here often.

The two cars stopped one after the other, Qin Muchu got out of the car feeling quite proud of himself and deliberately looked at Li Yifei’s car, saying, "This old car is still going strong, it must have run close to 200,000 kilometers by now."

"Almost." Li Yifei locked the car, and Song Lianyao came over, holding his arm, and said, "This is my dad’s car, he used to travel a lot, so the mileage is high."

"Haha, it’s time for a change, you two hurry up and make some money, and get the old man a new car, I know some friends who sell cars, if you want to buy, you can find me, I’ll definitely get you the lowest price."

"Sure, if we buy one, we’ll find you." Li Yifei said.

While driving just now, Li Yifei was already planning to get a new car for Song Lianyao’s dad, this Audi A4 is fine to drive, but it’s getting old, and the condition is not so good. Just now, there was a slight issue with the brakes, really dangerous to drive on the road.

Qin Muchu naturally thought Li Yifei was boasting, he sneered inwardly, thinking that someone like Li Yifei, even if he could buy a car, wouldn’t be able to get a good one, so he added, "Hmm, but the people I know all deal with luxury cars, you guys better prepare a bit more money."

Yin Feng’er quickly tugged at her boyfriend, thinking that just while in the car he was okay, but why did he start talking like that as soon as they got out.

Li Yifei just smiled and walked into the hotel with Song Lianyao, Qin Muchu hit a soft nail, and frowned. He felt a bit displeased seeing how much Song Lianyao depended on Li Yifei, so he wanted to take Li Yifei down a notch.

After entering the hotel, Qin Muchu directly said that he had booked a place, a waiter then led the four of them to a window seat.

Song Lianyao pulled Li Yifei to sit down, the two exchanged a glance, Li Yifei slightly shook his head, indicating he didn’t mind, while the two across sat down, Qin Muchu had a smug smile on his face, and said, "This Grand Hotel is considered the best place around here, usually there’s no availability, if I didn’t know the manager here, and asked him on the phone to hold a spot for us, we wouldn’t have had a place to come."

"The Grand Hotel is indeed quite popular." Song Lianyao said.

Yin Feng’er felt proud of her boyfriend, nodded along and said, "Yes, it’s indeed popular, and the boss of this hotel is very capable, apparently, he’s the richest in the area, isn’t he, Muchu?"

Qin Muchu said, "Indeed, Boss Zhang is quite a famous tycoon in our area, reportedly worth billions, not someone we can easily mess with, really impressive!"

"Haha, I wonder how the food tastes." Li Yifei said with a smile.

Qin Muchu immediately glared and said, "Brother Li, your words, if the food wasn’t good I wouldn’t bring you here, and moreover, how could a large hotel like this have bad tasting food."

Song Lianyao quickly spoke for her husband, "That’s not always true, there’s a restaurant in Mile City, it’s huge, yet the taste is just average."

Qin Muchu waved his hand and said, "Different places, although Mile City isn’t small, compared to our Ying City, it’s still lacking a bit."

Seeing the topic straying, Yin Feng’er quickly said, "Okay, let’s order first, once the dishes come, we’ll know if they’re good or not, if not, we can just settle the bill and leave, find another place to eat."

With that said, Song Lianyao didn’t say anything else, and everyone finished ordering their dishes, Qin Muchu asked what drinks to have, Yin Feng’er followed up and said, "Yaoyao, can you drive?"

"I can."

"Well then, you two guys have some drinks, Yaoyao still has to feed the baby, so she can’t drink, and neither will I. After the meal, I’ll drive your car, Yaoyao can drive theirs, to avoid drunk driving."

"Still worried about getting stopped for drunk driving in Ying City? No way, it’ll be fine," Qin Muchu immediately said.

Yin Feng’er then hugged Qin Muchu’s arm and coyly said, "I know you’re amazing and not afraid of the police checks, but we should still be careful about safety. If someone else hits us, it won’t be safe either!"

This guy is quite interesting. Li Yifei, having witnessed many things, understood the mindset of people like him. Nodding, he didn’t say much.

The food arrived, and there were four people. Qin Muchu ordered six dishes, not too many or too few, and the taste was pretty good. As they ate and drank, the conversation flowed more freely. Both Song Lianyao and Yin Feng’er were good at keeping the atmosphere lively, making sure things weren’t awkward. However, Qin Muchu couldn’t resist boasting a bit, often giving off an air of superiority. Although this wasn’t pleasant, it didn’t lead to any conflicts.

Li Yifei ate his food and drank his drink. If he didn’t like the conversation, he simply tuned it out.

About ten minutes later, a group of people walked in from outside. Qin Muchu, out of habit, turned to look. His eyes lit up, and he immediately put down his chopsticks, walking with large strides towards the group without a word.

The three who were left watched Qin Muchu as he approached one of the newcomers, who seemed familiar to him.

Yin Feng’er explained from the side, "Muchu knows a lot of people. Let him chat, while we continue eating."

Just after she finished speaking, Qin Muchu nodded and bowed to the other person, his face full of smiles as he talked. The other person nodded back, shook hands with Qin Muchu, then continued walking inside. A trace of embarrassment flashed across Yin Feng’er’s face. She had just praised Qin Muchu, yet his behavior was somewhat mortifying.

Qin Muchu continued watching the group leave before turning back and returning to the table. When he saw all three were looking at him, he smiled and said, "Just ran into someone I know, had a quick chat. Don’t mind it, folks."

"Muchu, who are those people? They seem pretty important," Yin Feng’er asked.

Qin Muchu laughed heartily, saying, "I only know a few of them, but even those few, their identities are enough to scare anyone. Haha, none of them dared to show any less than respect to me, although the ones in front are beyond my circle."

"Oh? So impressive, Muchu, tell us about the people you know," Yin Feng’er continued.

The playful back-and-forth between the two seemed somewhat childish to Li Yifei and Song Lianyao. But they didn’t point this out, with Li Yifei especially just eating another bite before looking up at Qin Muchu with interest, asking, "Yes, tell us."

Speaking just to entertain the others, Qin Muchu got a little smug. He didn’t rush to speak, eating a little and drinking a sip of wine before saying, "The person I spoke with is a People’s Congress Representative in Ying City, worth billions with many businesses under him. We’ve known each other for quite a while, so I went over to have a chat. The people next to him are also big bosses in Ying City, and it seems they’re all People’s Congress Representatives, really powerful people."

Qin Muchu has a public position while secretly running a company with an annual income of a million or so, but compared to these people, he’s the underdog, not worth discussing. His connection with the boss was due to his public role, but the boss hardly paid him any attention, as evident from earlier.

On the contrary, Qin Muchu is eager to know these people, trying to squeeze into their circle.

The car he bought was purchased on a loan. He rides a bicycle to work and only dares to drive after work.

After a while, Qin Muchu recounted the status of several people he knew. Yin Feng’er was left open-mouthed, astonished, and then felt Qin Muchu was truly impressive for knowing so many big bosses and being able to chat with them.

Li Yifei and Song Lianyao’s reactions were much more reserved. With their wealth, whether it’s billions, tens of billions, or even hundreds of billions, it didn’t matter. To Li Yifei, they were no different than ordinary people. Li Yifei didn’t bother to look at those in front, so he couldn’t really comment.

"Muchu, I believe one day you’ll be that successful too!" Yin Feng’er said, her eyes sparkling.

Qin Muchu raised his wine glass, laughing heartily, "Of course, I’m still young, and my company is just getting started. But with rapid changes, if I work hard for a few years, I can certainly grow it several times over."

Yin Feng’er raised her drink-filled glass, saying, "Yes, I believe in you. Come, I propose that the four of us have a toast to wish Muchu’s career continuous success, and to bless my dear friends Yaoyao and Yifei with a century of love!"

This toast had to be drunk, so Li Yifei and Song Lianyao didn’t hesitate. They raised their glasses and took a sip. Just as they put their glasses down, they noticed that a few people from the group that went upstairs suddenly ran down, looking flustered and shouting to quickly call for an ambulance.

The shout silenced the originally noisy hall instantly, leaving many puzzled people looking over.

Here, Qin Muchu also put down his glass and hurriedly stood up, as the person shouting was none other than the billionaire boss he had just chatted up.
