Chapter 227: Chapter 227: Severing TiesAfter settling things with Wang Bin, Luu Zhichang led the way to the front, personally guiding Zhang Yang. However, as they entered the elevator, Xia Xue saw Luu Zhichang press the sixth floor button and immediately reminded him, "Have you made a mistake? Is our private room on the sixth floor?" "That’s right, I reserved it especially for you," Luu Zhichang said with a sleazy look at Xia Xue. Hearing this, Xia Xue turned to Wang Bin, "Is this what you booked?" Wang Bin frowned, slightly displeased with the way Xia Xue spoke to him, but he didn’t lose his temper. Instead, he acted innocent and said, "I didn’t know about this, I just asked Brother Chang to reserve a private room." At that moment, Zhang Yang noticed something off and asked Xia Xue, "Cousin, is there something special about the sixth-floor private room?" Upon hearing this, Xia Xue felt obligated to explain, "The sixth floor is the best level of Phoenix Restaurant, and the rooms there are the most luxurious. However, just the room fee is six thousand yuan, and that’s not all, the minimum spend on the sixth floor has to be six hundred thousand yuan." Zhang Yang slightly furrowed his brows. With that, how could he not see that Luu Zhichang was doing this on purpose? After explaining to Zhang Yang, Xia Xue immediately said to Luu Zhichang, "Could you move us to the second floor, please?" "My dear sister-in-law, I’m really sorry, but the second floor is fully booked. Moreover, there’s no need to move. With me here, the second floor and the sixth floor are the same. Don’t worry, treat it like your own home." Upon hearing Luu Zhichang’s words, Xia Xue was taken aback. Does this mean the sixth floor doesn’t have a spending limit now? Xia Xue wanted to confirm this with Luu Zhichang, but at that moment Wang Bin came over, "All right, wife, Brother Chang and I have this relationship, and he specially reserved the sixth-floor room for us. Don’t feel pressured, it’s all the same." Seeing this, Xia Xue didn’t ask further, and by then, the elevator had reached the sixth floor. Zhang Yang, with hands shoved in his pockets, looked on with some disdain. Wang Bin had indeed intentionally had Luu Zhichang reserve a room on the sixth floor, and he believed the end result would definitely not be as rosy as Luu Zhichang had said, and that they would certainly use this as an excuse to make things difficult for him. But Zhang Yang was mentally prepared. At the entrance, both Wang Bin and Zhang Tiande had already spent quite a bit. If he appeared stingy now, Zhang Tiande might not be pleased. So, for tonight, Zhang Yang was ready to spend all of the eighty thousand yuan he had just earned. Thinking this, Zhang Yang didn’t stop Luu Zhichang from leading them into a VVIP private room. As soon as he entered, Zhang Yang was stunned by the luxuriousness of the room, which was styled like a European castle. Anyone entering would feel like European nobility. Inside, not only were there 3D surround sound media systems, but also various high-end gaming consoles. The sofa chairs were extremely comfortable, obviously very expensive. Is this the world of the wealthy? Zhang Yang couldn’t help but wonder, yet felt oddly displeased. It’s just a meal, no matter how luxurious the decor, what does it matter?

Zhang Tiande’s voice sounded colder than usual, it looked like he was still angry about the earlier incident. Zhang Yang found this amusing; this man really was narrow-minded, but then again, that explained his preference for sons over daughters and his lack of concern for his daughter, Xiao Man. Chen Yun was very displeased with Zhang Tiande’s demeanor. If not for wanting to save Zhang Tiande’s face in front of the younger ones and not wanting him to lose face, she would have left already. Just like Xia Xue, Chen Yun also felt that today’s meal was quite unnecessary. Only Wang Bin was still gleefully taking Xia Xue to her seat while Zhang Yang naturally sat down as well. What irritated Zhang Yang was that Luu Zhichang also sat down with them. "Aren’t you leaving?" Zhang Yang bluntly asked. Luu Zhichang looked stunned; he had never seen someone who cared so little about face. Even if you were unhappy, the person had already sat down—nobody asks like this. At this moment, Wang Bin said sternly, "Brother Chang is my friend. Without him, you wouldn’t have had the chance to come to such a nice private room. Later, toast a drink to Brother Chang and don’t be so ignorant." "Wang Bin is right, newcomers are guests. We shouldn’t forget our manners." Zhang Tiande also spoke to Zhang Yang with a serious expression. "So, this meal does not require me to pay, right Uncle Zhang?" Zhang Yang felt increasingly irritated by Zhang Tiande, and the feeling seemed mutual. Faced with this, Zhang Yang saw no need to be polite with Zhang Tiande. Zhang Tiande’s expression grew even uglier. He didn’t care about this meal or the one hundred thousand yuan tip he had just given, after all, such an expense was nothing to him. But Zhang Yang repeatedly embarrassed him, showing not the slightest respect expected from a younger person, causing Zhang Tiande’s dignity to be challenged. Now, as Zhang Yang pulled this stunt again, Zhang Tiande angrily slammed the table. "Zhang Yang, what exactly do you want to do? If you continue to behave so ignorantly, I will make Xiao Man break up with you." Inside the private room now, Zhang Tiande didn’t hesitate to lecture Zhang Yang. The moment Zhang Tiande suggested Zhang Yang and Xiao Man break up, Chen Yun strongly disagreed. "As a father, is it appropriate for you to meddle in your child’s feelings?" Chen Yun also said with a stern face. Zhang Tiande was unconcerned, "Why isn’t it appropriate? You aren’t looking at what kind of person Xiao Man ended up with. Are you saying if Xiao Man found a beggar, I, as a father, shouldn’t interfere?" What it meant to speak indirectly was perfectly demonstrated by Zhang Tiande. He was outright calling Zhang Yang a beggar. Everyone present, being astute, could easily make out Zhang Tiande’s insulting tone. Chen Yun was so angry her face turned red, and she was about to retort, but then Zhang Yang suddenly spoke up, "Uncle Zhang, since you put it that way, I have no choice but to let Xiao Man sever ties with you." "What did you say?" Zhang Tiande couldn’t believe his own ears. Zhang Yang, mimicking Zhang Tiande’s earlier remark and smiling sarcastically, said, "Because I feel some people are not suitable to be a father—an individual who doesn’t know the first thing about respect shouldn’t have any right to interfere in others’ feelings. Having such a father, I, as a boyfriend, must intervene a bit too." "You bastard!" Zhang Tiande almost flipped the table. The atmosphere suddenly became extremely tense, and Chen Yun and Xia Xue both felt that today’s Zhang Yang was unusually defiant. Yet, they could understand Zhang Yang; today, both Zhang Tiande and Wang Bin had been too excessive. But they couldn’t just stand by and watch Zhang Yang and Zhang Tiande come to blows. If this continued, things really wouldn’t end well. "Enough, I don’t think there’s any need to continue this meal. Let’s go, go home," Chen Yun said coldly.
