Chapter 90: High Society
Lin Junyun smiled faintly: "Isn't that good? You're here with friends for a midnight snack, it's rare to come back once, don't neglect your friends!"
Zhang Jun curled his lip and looked around, saying: "My friends are all sons of high society, they're used to eating the finest delicacies, why would they come to a place like this for a midnight snack?"
"How did you get here?"
"I happened to be passing by, so I came over." Zhang Jun pointed to a Porsche sports car parked not far away and said: "They were racing with friends and said that the mountain road was not exciting enough, they had to come to the city to play."
"Oh." Lin Junyun didn't feel like bothering with him, so he responded out of politeness.
Zhang Jun saw Lin Junyun's expressionless face and continued: "The things here are not hygienic, I'll take you to a high-end hotel to eat."
"No way, I think it's pretty good here, lively. I like this kind of casual atmosphere." Lin Junyun smiled, but his tone had already clearly revealed a hint of impatience.
"So you like excitement, that's easy to arrange. I'll take you to my uncle's private club in the Western District, where young people from high society gather. You can't imagine all the delicious food and fun things there are, it's a high-end lifestyle that ordinary people can't enjoy. You're lucky to have met me."
Lin Junyun frowned and looked at Zhang Jun who was talking nonsense: "Sorry, I'm not interested."
Lin Junyun finished speaking and looked at Pang Guang with a pleading gaze. He was annoyed and thought, "You think of a way!"
Pang Guang had been displeased with this guy for a long time. On the first day of school at Dongcheng Middle School, as soon as he walked into the classroom, he saw Lin Junyun being surrounded by several people giving a speech, and one of them was Zhang Jun. At that time, he was seriously asking Lin Junyun to yield to him, saying his father was the CEO of a listed company. Lin Junyun quoted a price of 50,000 yuan. Later, when Tianxing International Entertainment's new film "Lost Youth" was looking for a high school girl to play the role of the second female lead, he went around promoting Lin Junyun as his heartthrob, completely disregarding him, Zhang Jun, as her "fiancé". Although it was fake, he couldn't tolerate someone like you stripping off his pants.
New grudges and old hatred, when Pang Guang was ready to give this guy a good beating, he never appeared again. Later, it was said that he had transferred to Hong Kong, so Pang Guang let go of the matter. Unexpectedly, they met again tonight, and his attitude was even more arrogant than before. If it were any other day, Pang Guang would have started fighting already. But today, his mood was good, and his temper was a bit better. "Zhang Jun, did you hear that? Lin Jun said he's not interested, so hurry up and leave. This isn't a place for you to stay. It's a mixed bag of good and bad people."
"I'm not afraid of bad people, like us rich kids who have at least a dozen bodyguards following us secretly whenever we go out. Although it's not freedom, it's just something that can't be helped. Every day, there are more than ten groups trying to get money from my dad through me." Zhang Jun said this with an expression of pride, but it's unclear whether he was showing off his many bodyguards or envying Pang Guang's freedom.
"This time it's different, my dad accidentally let it slip yesterday that a extremely abnormal fugitive is hiding in the East City District. This fugitive has an extraordinary skill, not to mention ten or more bodyguards, even if you add ten more he wouldn't care, with just three or two moves he would take them all down." Pang Guang started bragging non-stop, but his expression was very serious, as if it were true: "Do you know why he's being pursued?"
"Why?" Zhang Jun was indeed piqued by Pang Guang's curiosity and asked.
"Because..." Pang Guang looked at Lin Junyun and beckoned Zhang Jun to lean in, "Come here, I'll whisper it to you."
Zhang Jun saw that Pang Guang was still hiding from Lin Junyun and said, his heart became even more curious. With an extraordinary skill, a wanted criminal, not letting girls hear it, this is interesting! Zhang Jun's mind was full of romantic thoughts, so he leaned in close to Pang Guang's mouth, waiting for him to continue speaking.
Pang Guang roared loudly into Zhang Jun's ear: "Because this person has a special hobby, he likes to burst the chrysanthemum of rich young masters, and also likes to burst in front of these young masters' bodyguards, which is more stimulating."
Zhang Jun's ears were ringing from Pang Guang's scolding, his face turned blue and white in turns, he really wanted to explode, but because Lin Junyun was present, he swallowed the anger. Thirty years on the east of the river, thirty years on the west of the river, he remembered that before going to Hong Kong, Lin Junyun still disliked Pang Guang very much, and had promised to follow him home for 50,000 yuan. In the blink of an eye, Lin Junyun was getting along with Pang Guang enthusiastically, even eating crayfish alone with him in this messy place, while she refused his invitation to go to a high-end private club without hesitation. What a personality, I like her more and more.
Zhang Jun thought to himself, "It must be that during the time I was in Hong Kong, Pang Guang gave her a lot of soup, and under these circumstances, I should maintain my gentlemanly demeanor and try to gain some impression points back." After taking a few deep breaths, his mood finally calmed down, and he thought, "Being loudly humiliated by him like this can't be too easy on him, or else Lin Junyun will look down on me." After rolling his eyes a few times, Zhang Jun came up with a plan that would kill two birds with one stone. He smiled and asked, "What does 'baokuihua' mean? I don't understand... Pang...Pang... what's your name again? Ah, I remember, Pang Guang! Sorry about that, your name is a bit of a tongue-twister..." This move was indeed ruthless, as the nickname "Baokuihua" and "Pang Guang" were perfectly matched. If Pang Guang understood it, he would definitely be furious and want to hit him, but Zhang Jun was just defending himself, so it wouldn't count as being ungentlemanly. And if Pang Guang didn't understand, that was okay too - the goal of giving Pang Guang a hard time while maintaining his gentlemanly demeanor had already been achieved.
"Son of a turtle!" Pang Guang was indeed furious, slamming the table and jumping up, just about to throw a punch when he was held back by Lin Junyun's quick reflexes. "Pang Guang, we're here for midnight snacks, don't cause trouble."
"It's not that I'm causing trouble, it's just that this kid is asking for a beating." Pang Guang broke free from Lin Junyun's grasp and was about to punch Zhang Jun in the mouth again. Pang Guang's fist was fast and urgent, and his aim was very accurate. If Zhang Jun couldn't dodge in time, this one punch could at least knock out three of his front teeth. "Zhang Jun, your mouth is being insolent, huh? I'll punch your mouth and knock out your teeth, then you won't dare to speak nonsense."
Lin Junyun was anxious and shouted, "Pang Guang, stop right there! Didn't you promise your dad that you wouldn't fight again?"
Pang Guang's hand froze in mid-air, and his mind immediately conjured up the severe eyes of Pang Da Hu.
Actually, Pang Guang is still very afraid of Pang Da Hu, especially afraid of his severe and melancholic eyes. He's not afraid of being beaten by Pang Da Hu because he has never really been beaten before, but he's very afraid to see the melancholy in Pang Da Hu's eyes. In those eyes, he can deeply feel the unique yet unexpressed paternal love from Pang Da Hu.
Pang Guang was also poor at expressing his "fear" of Pang Da Hu. After calming down, Pang Guang sat down: "I don't want to fight, it's this bastard who provoked me."
"Alright, beer is not good if it's not iced, let's hurry up and eat crayfish and drink beer!" Lin Junyun glanced at Zhang Jun, hinting him to leave quickly, as Pang Guang had already been subdued by me.
Pang Guang heard this and picked up a small lobster to peel it. The good mood of the day was ruined by this guy.
Zhang Jun, however, didn't seem to want to leave and said politely: "Pang Guang, don't be angry! I apologize. Originally, I wouldn't eat at a place like this, it's dirty and chaotic. But today is a rare encounter with an old classmate, so to show my sincerity, I'll treat you to this meal. You guys eat as much as you want, I'll just symbolically join you for a bit. Besides, I just came from a high-society cocktail party and my stomach is still full."
Pang Guang finally couldn't bear it anymore, slamming the small lobster on the table: "Get out, roll away as far as possible while I'm still calm."
Zhang Jun was not intimidated by Pang Guang, the more furious Pang Guang became, the more calm and collected Zhang Jun was. For Lin Junyun's sake, he went all out to confront Pang Guang, "Oh right, sorry about that, I almost forgot you guys aren't from high society, can't understand what I'm saying."
Pang Guang's eyes were about to spew fire, and his heart was entangled with a million knots. For this idiot Zhang Jun, according to his previous character, he could have slapped him shut immediately, but today he suddenly became leisurely and sparse. He looked at Lin Junyun and blurted out a sentence that even he couldn't believe himself, "Zhang Jun, I'm not hitting you today, not because I can't beat you, I just want to eat a good midnight snack without being disturbed, this place is dirty and messy, it's not suitable for you."
"It doesn't matter, I don't mind." Zhang Jun glanced at Lin Junyun and then at the dinner table: "With a beauty like you at the same table... eating... what is this thing?"
"It's small lobster, a specialty of Hunan." Lin Junyun gazed at Pang Guang as he answered Zhang Jun's question.
"Right, little lobster." Zhang Jun continued: "Lin Junyun, how about what I said?"
"What?" Lin Junyun was still dazed from his disordered thoughts and looked at Zhang Jun with a puzzled expression.
"Five hundred thousand is just five hundred thousand, I want you to be my girlfriend." Zhang Jun said: "My family has a lot of money, as long as you follow me, I guarantee that you will have the best food every day. Australian lobster in our house can only be considered a snack, where do we need to eat these strange little lobsters?"
With a "bang", the dinner table shook again with a loud crash, and Pang Guang slapped the table once more.
His emotions rose and fell three times tonight, and he finally couldn't hold back. He slammed his hand on the table: "She's my fiancée, and you're asking her in front of me if she wants to be your girlfriend?"
Zhang Jun sneered: "Stop pretending, I forgot to tell you that my dad can run such a large multinational listed company, the intelligence department is indispensable. He has more than 20 elites from all over the world who are responsible for collecting business intelligence on competitors. To investigate your little son's background, it's just a matter of one sentence. As for the two of you, everything has been investigated clearly, and you're just pretending to be fools, pretending to deceive others."
