Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Chapter 706 Everyone here

Ling Ni’s words had only fallen when a loud slam resonates from next to her. She jumped in surprise and takes a step back as Liu Shan stood up.

When he turned to look at her, horror flash on her face as his expression was one, she had never seen before.

Unlike his usual cheerful and carefree expression, his expression now was dark and dim.

Liu Shan glares at Ling Ni with slightly widen red eyes. He stretches one arm in front of his boss like he was protecting her.

"She’s not going anywhere with you. Not today, not tomorrow, not ever."

He had thought she (Ling Ni) had come to their table to greet his boss. However, instead of having good intentions, she came with ill intentions.

Yes, she is the woman he is still hung up on, but that doesn’t mean he will place her before his boss.

Did she think they were stupid people who didn’t understand Tao Meng’s intentions?

"Liu Shan..."

Ling Ni sobbed his name and bit her lower lip. She couldn’t understand why he was being protective of Yue Ling. Is he like this because she (Yue Ling) is the person he is seeing now?

As she thought this, she grew envious of Yue Ling and clench her fists tightly.

"Liu Shan, why are you angry? I’m only inviting Yue Ling to have a drink."

Hearing those words that sounded so innocent and like she was a victim, Yue Ling chuckles and stood up from her chair.

Due to her tall height, she lowers her head and looks down at the woman who was a head shorter than her.

"Since Shan is rejecting the favor, I must decline."

Ling Ni’s eyes widen at the way Yue Ling addressed Liu Shan. Even when she was seeing the assistant, she didn’t dare to call him in such a familiar way.

She opened her mouth to ask what their relationship is, but before she could a loud crashing noise sound from behind them.

"What the fuck is this?!"

*crash—

Xiao (Man 2) roars angrily with a mouthful of food as he abruptly stood up. He knocks his chair back with a loud thud and he grabs the steamed bun he had just taken a bite.

"Old man! Do you call this food? It’s dry and tasteless, I can barely eat it!"

He throws the steamed bun in aim for the food stall. When his last word fell, he spat out the food in the direction of Tang Zhonghui and the twins’ table.

"..."

The three handsome men did not flinch at the rude and foul gesture done to their table.

Under situations like this, Tang Zhonghui would have lost his cool. He is a foodie and likes to enjoy his meals in peace. If someone were to ruin the mood, he would turn into a crazy manic.

However, he remained calm and without any care.

Instead, it was Gui Tian Lan who lost his temper. He was just about to take a sip of his drink when a piece of stuffing Xiao had spat out landed in his cup.

His lower lip tremble and his hand holding the cup trembles like he was going to break it.

"Brothers, look. The prick is trembling."

Xiao saw his trembling lips and laughs sarcastically. He was sure that Gui Tian Lan was going to piss himself.

"Kid, if you’re this scared, scram. It’s already past your bedtime."

He spoke provocatively but Gui Tian Lan didn’t turn to look his way. His (Gui Tian Lan) hand holding the cup calmly lowers and he set the cup down.

Xiao’s arrogant demeanor abruptly stops when he saw that his words did not scare the good-looking man. He furiously grabs another steamed bun and throws it at Gui Tian Lan.

"Damn prick. You dare ignore me!"

However, the steamed bun did not hit his target. It ended up hitting someone else at the table.

"Aish..."

Tang Zhonghui grunts like a grumpy old man who is irritated. He held on arm out in front of him and the steamed bun in his palm.

"Damn scums. All I wanted to do was eat in peace. Is that so hard to ask nowadays?"

He slams the steamed bun on the table and stood up from his chair. His eyes lock on Xiao and he points at the man.

"You. You’re going to regret this."

Xiao and everyone from Red Moon was slightly taken back by surprise. Each person stared at the stylish young man, then in a split second, a burst of hysterical laughter burst from them.

"You’re going to make us regret?"

Man 1 snorts a peal of laughter full of mockery and stood up to stand next to Xiao. He looks up and down at Tang Zhonghui then to the twins.

Seeing how weak they looked, he burst into another laughter but one full of ridicule.

"Go, home kid. You don’t want to be enemies with Red Moon."

The same time this took place, Ling Ni watched from Yue Ling’s table. Her eyes subconsciously glance to her surroundings and a wave of petrifying horror wash over her.

Everyone that didn’t belong to Red Moon was not looking at the scene she was but were staring at her.

Their stares thrown at her was not one curious bystander would give, but the kind of stare similar to glare as if they wanted to kill her.

Her brain froze and she no longer knew what to do anymore. She could only turn her head to look at Tao Meng with glistening eyes of unshed tears.

Tao Meng had long heard the argument that broke out between his men and the three younger men. However, he ignores it and calmly stood up to help Ling Ni.

If he doesn’t help her, there is a possibility that she will only ruin his good plan.

*Crash—

Just as he stood up, so did the rest of his men. Multiple chairs stumble back onto the hard floor causing a loud noise.

Tao Meng pauses in his movement and turns his head to the source. He frowns and takes a step forward. However, he didn’t walk in the direction of Yue Ling, but to his men.

"Jia Lin."

Man 1, who’s name is Jia Lin heard his name and turn around to look at his boss.

"Boss."

Tao Meng stood in front of his men as his attention shifted from Yue Ling to the three weak looking men in front of him. He only did this because he wanted to impress Yue Ling and have her see him as a righteous man.

"What’s going on here? Why did you guys cause a scene?"

Hearing his words, Jia Lin frown in confusion. This is the first time his boss has ever question their reason for causing trouble. However, not thinking too much over it, he slightly lowers his head and explains.

"These three men were belittling us."

Hearing this, Tao Meng arch a brow. One by one, he looks at the three men and scoffs a sarcastic chuckle.

"These three weaklings?"

He gives them another look and howls a laugh loudly like this was the funniest thing he has ever come across. However, that laugh only lasted for a second before his expression is replaced with daunting.

"I suggest the three of you scram. Do you know who you are messing with?"

Gui Tian Lan and Gui Zhongmin glance at one another then stood up to stand on either side of Tang Zhonghui.

One place his hands inside his pocket while the other cross his arms over his chest. Both their chin raise arrogantly and spoke at the same time.

"We do, but do you know who you are messing with?"

Xiao snorts at Gui Tian Lan and Gui Zhongmin’s words. He licks the front of his teeth and nods his head like he was impressed by their courage.

"What, the three of you?"

Standing between the two brothers, Tang Zhonghui stuck his left palm out in front of Xiao. His expression held no emotion as fingers curl leaving only his pointer finger and he moves it side to side.

"No, no, no. Not us three."

His words fell and everyone from De L’amour stood from their seats. The murderous glare that had been directed at Ling Ni was quickly shifted to Tao Meng and his men.

Tang Zhonghui moves both his arms and kept them slightly raised at his side. His head lowers a little and his eyes locked on Tao Meng with a smug on his face.

"Everyone here."
