Chapter 473 - 472: Is It Really Master Su?

Chapter 473: Chapter 472: Is It Really Master Su?

After waiting for a moment and seeing nobody coming over, Hu Shao sneered, "Chen Shao, it seems that your Su Yang is quite slow in arriving. Shall I send a car to pick him up for you?"

Chen Benhao laughed, "No need to trouble yourself, he will be here any moment."

"He will be here any moment?" Hu Shao suddenly burst into laughter, "What you mean is, Su Yang is already here? Tsk, tsk, what a coincidence that Su Yang happens to be in Heavenly Food Garden? The Su Yang you’re talking about couldn’t possibly be one of the chefs here, could he?"

"Hahaha..." Everyone burst into laughter immediately, and a young man from the Zhou Family mocked, "Well, you never know, it could be waiter Su Yang!"

"It could also be Su Yang the toilet cleaner, huh!"

"Or Su Yang the sewer technician!"

The crowd continued to roar with laughter, completely taking pleasure in Chen Benhao’s embarrassment.

Chen Benhao smiled without saying a word, hearing that Su Yang had reached the door but had not come in directly; he knew that Su Yang was waiting for these people to stop talking.

Just when the noise had more or less settled down, somebody pushed the door open. Su Yang walked in from the doorway, sat down, and said with a smile, "What’s the conversation here? Everyone seems to be enjoying themselves?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, as the people from the Zhou Family did not recognize Su Yang and naturally had no idea who the newcomer was.

As for Hu Shao and others who had seen Su Yang before, they nearly collapsed in fright the moment they saw him.

Especially Young Master Ding, who fell right off his chair with a thud.

"What’s wrong?" Young Master Zhou frowned and said, looking at the dumbfounded expressions on Hu Shao and the others, he became even more puzzled, "What’s with those faces? What happened?"

"Su... Su... Su..." Hu Shao’s tongue was tied in knots, and he couldn’t finish a single word for ages.

"Su what?" Young Master Zhou asked curiously.

Su Yang walked over to Chen Benhao’s side and sat down, whispering, "What he’s trying to say is Su Yang, right?"

"What about Su Yang?" Young Master Zhou asked, staring wide-eyed, "Did your tongue get cramped?"

At that moment, Young Master Ding got up, but instead of sitting down, he dropped to his knees with a thud and said with a trembling voice, "Su... Master Su..."

"Master Su?" Young Master Zhou paused for a second, and as he caught Young Master Ding’s gaze, his face changed, turning towards Su Yang completely astonished.

The other members of the Zhou Family also sensed that something was amiss. Someone who could make Young Master Ding kneel at sight, just what kind of status did they have? Besides, with that term "Master Su," wasn’t Su Yang’s identity already clear?

"Is he... is he really Master Su?" Young Master Zhou asked Hu Shao in a low voice.

At this moment, Hu Shao’s tongue was still not untangled, but he could only nod emphatically.

Young Master Zhou also plopped down onto the ground, and after a moment, he struggled to his feet, bent over, and said with a trembling voice, "Master Su, I... I was blind to Mount Tai and didn’t realize it was you who honored us with your presence. We’ve been terribly rude just now, I... I hope Master Su can forgive us!"

The rest of the Zhou Family also scrambled to their feet, bending at the waist to bow, their faces stricken with extreme fear.

This was Su Yang, the famous Master Su of Pingnan Province, a figure who demanded bows and greetings even from their elders!

Su Yang didn’t even look at them. He leisurely played with the wine cup on the table and said softly, "What’s with all the courtesy? I’m merely a chef, a waiter, a toilet cleaner, a sewer dredger. How could I warrant such grand gestures from several young masters?"

The crowd was almost scared witless. Could it be that Su Yang had heard everything they had said?

"Master... Master Su, we... we weren’t speaking about you..." Young Master Zhou’s voice shook, "We... We were talking about someone else..."

"Oh, is that so?" Su Yang said with a faint smile. "Is there another chef, another waiter, a toilet cleaner, a sewer dredger with the same name as me here? If that’s the case, I really must meet them. Since when has the name Su Yang become so common? Come on, bring them here for me to see."

The faces of the Zhou Family members turned even uglier, wondering where they could possibly find so many Su Yangs. And even if they could find them, would they really dare to do so?

Young Master Zhou hurriedly said, "Master Su, you misunderstand, we... we didn’t mean there was another Su Yang here. It’s just... just this kid..."

"Choose your words carefully!" Su Yang said coldly. "Chen Benhao is my friend!"

The crowd’s faces shifted once again. To be acknowledged as a friend by Su Yang himself, that was no small matter. Thinking back on the insults they had hurled at Chen Benhao moments ago, everyone’s hearts were filled with extreme unease. Considering Su Yang’s character, would they even be able to leave the Heavenly Food Garden unscathed today?

Young Master Zhou’s voice trembled even more, "Master Su, I... I didn’t mean to insult Chen Shao. It’s just... just that we hadn’t heard Chen Shao’s name before, nor did we know his relationship with you. But, there have been many people who have falsely used your name to deceive and swindle recently, and we... we were worried about encountering such a person, which is why we... we asked a few more questions."

Seeing that Su Yang remained silent, Young Master Zhou quickly added, "If I’ve offended you, I... I apologize to Chen Shao right here. Chen Shao, I’m truly sorry, it’s just that we were unaware of your importance, please forgive us."

Chen Benhao chortled, "Oh my, don’t make it sound so nice. I can’t accept such an apology. And that’s not how you were talking just now. Weren’t you clamoring for me to call Su Yang over, then wait for Su Yang to ask you for mercy, and you’d decide whether to let us go depending on your mood? Young Master Zhou, when you say that, I get quite anxious. Are you letting us off the hook or not?"

The girl beside him suddenly laughed, thinking that Chen Benhao was quite sly.

Young Master Zhou and the others were taken aback, they never said anything like that. While the statements they had made were indeed quite harsh, they hadn’t gone to such lengths.

Now, with Chen Benhao framing it in such a way, it was as if he were pushing them toward a dead end. Looking at Pingnan Province today, how many dared to disrespect Su Yang?

"Really?" Su Yang also laughed. "Oh, so I need to come over and beg you to let people go? My, that’s an oversight on my part. I haven’t even asked anyone for anything since I entered, would that upset you?"

The Zhou Family members wished they could bang their heads against a pillar. Young Master Zhou quickly said, "Master Su, there’s been a misunderstanding, none of that happened. Chen Shao... Chen Shao was just joking, we... we wouldn’t dare to say such things. In Pingnan Province, not to mention Master Su himself, but even a word from Master Su would have us climb a mountain of knives or plunge into a vat of oil without a frown, how could we... how could we dare to have you come and ask us..."

"Is that so?" Su Yang smiled. "You’re that considerate?"

Seeing Su Yang’s expression, Young Master Zhou breathed a sigh of relief and quickly added, "Of course. As long as you, Master Su, say the word, we will make it happen!"

"Since that’s the case, that’s wonderful..." Su Yang said with a light smile. "I’ve just bought a new knife and I’m not sure if it’s sharp enough. I’ve been wanting to find someone to test it out. How about you all stand here and let me take a few swings at you to see how effective this knife is?"
