Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law
Chapter 1023 - Chapter 1023 Chapter 1022 Complaining

Chapter 1023: Chapter 1022 Complaining Chapter 1023: Chapter 1022 Complaining Upstairs in the private room, the large wooden round table was loaded with all kinds of fine dishes. Sitting at the host’s seat, Lei Hao looked distressedly at the food before him. It felt like he wasn’t eating dishes, but his own flesh!

It wasn’t wine he was drinking, but his own blood!

This single meal had eaten up half a year’s salary.

While others tightened their belts for the latter half of the month, he had to tighten his belt for the next half-year.

What a pathetic captain of the Owl Dragon Team he was.

Thinking, Lei Hao glared fiercely at Huo Beijiang sitting beside him, feeling like killing him. He had seen thick-skinned and black-hearted people, but never anyone as bad as this. Wasn’t a simple meal at a small restaurant enough?

But this guy had to choose the Imperial Palace.

Was he not asking for death?

“Don’t glare at me!” Huo Beijiang had just picked up a cigarette when a lighter was timely handed to him. Lighting the cigarette and taking a puff, he said irritatedly, “You should blame your cousin for being too ruthless and charging too much.”

The young man sitting in the deputy director’s seat really wanted to turn around and leave, as his role as the boss was not easy either, pleading under his cousin’s sharp gaze.

“Brother, you’re my real brother.”

“Stop the nonsense. If you waive the bill today, I’m your brother. If not, we’re strangers.”

“But… then don’t be my brother! If I waive your bill, grandpa would break my legs.”

“Boss!” Lu Jin returned from taking a call outside, wearing a strange expression, “The office just called, saying Fu Xinwu is looking for you.”

Huo Beijiang, lounging back in his chair with a carefree look, merely arched an eyebrow upon hearing Lu Jin’s words.

“What’s it about?”

“They didn’t clarify…” Lu Jin paused, his expression becoming even weirder.

Yu Xiaoxiao, who was stubbornly refusing to drink, overheard this and faintly glanced at Lu Jin, “Are you very free? Or do you think the boss is very free?” Bringing such trivial matters to the boss.

Lei Hao clenched his fists desperately; did Yu Xiaoxiao’s words mean he was free? Even he, Captain Lei, was busy! Huo Beijiang was a bastard, and naturally his soldiers were too. No, he wanted to hit someone again. But recalling what had happened the last time he hit someone, he forcibly held back.

Can’t hit people, can’t hit people!

Hitting Huo Beijiang would just be hurting himself.

“No, it’s not!” Lu Jin, recalling what he had seen at the second-floor railing, agonized over whether to tell the boss. Although Fu Xinwu’s call wasn’t successful, he had witnessed everything!

It had to be said, sister-in-law was fierce.

But given that the boss loved pampering sister-in-law, almost not wanting to go to the army daily like a doting fool. Letting the boss know that sister-in-law was bullied, nearly kicked out by the restaurant staff, he really would go and smash the restaurant.

It wouldn’t be the first time after all.

Last time, smashing Jin Lifu’s research institute felt so satisfying!

Lu Jin sneaked another look at Lei Hao’s cousin, thinking that this guy was likely in for some bad luck today.

“Stop beating around the bush,” Huo Beijiang raised his eyebrows, “Can’t you speak directly?”

Lu Jin felt like crying, fearing that speaking directly would make the boss flip the table.

“Boss, just now downstairs I saw sister-in-law and Fu Xinwu trying to come in to eat, but they were chased out by the restaurant staff, and she even encountered a few acquaintances who insulted her…”

“What did you say? Say that again?” Huo Beijiang suddenly stood up, his previously indifferent expression completely gone, replaced by a menacing and eerie aura.

PS: Good night, kisses!
