Ren Yuanhao couldn't be bothered to argue with such a person, yet for some reason, he found the voice somewhat familiar, but couldn't quite place it.
After the man entered the hotel, he immediately spotted Xiao Yue sitting in the west corner. Xiao Yue seemed to harbor some fear and anger towards this figure, holding her fork as if it were the only weapon she possessed at that moment.
Ren Yuanhao found it peculiar and quickened his pace. Just then, he heard the man approaching Xiao Yue say in a low voice, "Yo? Isn't this the big star Xiao Yue? What, you don't wear a mask when you go out? Thinking of finding a sugar daddy here?"
The man sat in Ren Yuanhao's designated seat. Seeing the other person remain silent, his tone became even more brazen.
"What, you've got a date? Or have you finally found a patron willing to take you in? Are you even mentally prepared for the unspoken rules?"
"DiDi, detected employer's mood change. Recommend a direct counter-attack to improve rating."
Since the system suggested it, Ren Yuanhao rolled up his sleeves. Just as a waiter passing by with a tray full of drinks arrived, he unhesitatingly took a cup of wine and directly splashed it onto the man's clothes.
"Damn it, are you blind? Do you know how expensive this outfit is?"
As the man was about to retaliate, he heard Ren Yuanhao say coldly, "My eyes are naturally functional, but ever since I popped out of my mother's womb, a fortune teller gave me a prediction: 'Arrogant and conceited'!"
As soon as Ren Yuanhao finished speaking, he placed his hand on the man's shoulder. The man, who had intended to stand up, found himself completely unable to move under Ren Yuanhao's peculiar strength!
Caught in a standoff, the man had never suffered such a loss. He immediately took off his mask.
Upon seeing the man's true face, Ren Yuanhao couldn't help but be stunned. This person was none other than Yue Ran, the host of the exhibition match!
Seeing Ren Yuanhao's expression, Yue Ran felt a surge of smugness. He quickly put his mask back on and, with an unyielding tone, said, "Now you know who you're talking to, right? Hurry up and take your dirty hand off. You've got so much strength, why aren't you hauling manure? Truly a waste of talent."
Ren Yuanhao knew this guy was glib-tongued. At the same time, he glanced sideways at Xiao Yue, who was still keeping her head down, and another thought struck him – this guy had publicly invited Shen Lan Ni during the exhibition match. Now he was here. Could it be that Shen Lan Ni was also present?
"What, you don't appreciate a toast and prefer a beating? I only need to make one call, and a dozen people will be here to teach you a lesson. Are you not going to release my hand?"
While lost in thought, Ren Yuanhao's face showed no trace of panic or fear. Instead, with a relaxed demeanor, he lifted the man from his seat with one hand. "Oh, I see. You're that celebrity commentator Yue Ran. I wonder, if I were to shout 'Yue Ran is here!' right now, would your crazy fans besiege this place?"
Ren Yuanhao released his hand and sat back down in his seat.
"You dare!" Yue Ran's emotions seemed to become agitated, of course, this had an inseparable connection with that electric scooter.
"Xiao Yue, your taste has truly deteriorated. You actually fancy this kind of street punk riding an electric scooter? Oh, right, your old father is in urgent need of several hundred thousand for surgery. At a time like this, selling your looks and body is naturally the best way to make money, tsk tsk, Xiao Yue, you've really fallen."
Xiao Yue, who had remained silent, began to tremble all over. However, she didn't intend to retort or seek Ren Yuanhao's help. Instead, she clenched her fists tightly, as if brewing something.
"Hate me. That's right, you should hate me. If I hadn't used your fame and scandals back then, I wouldn't have reached this height. In the entertainment industry, one person's success is built on the bones of countless others. I had to climb on your shoulders to get here!"
Hearing Yue Ran say this, Ren Yuanhao finally understood the relationship between the two and was about to erupt in anger, but unexpectedly, Yue Ran grabbed Xiao Yue's hand.
"Look, I've left such a precious thing for you. I've treated you with utmost benevolence!" As Yue Ran spoke, he suddenly thought of something, his face filled with malice as he looked at Xiao Yue. He leaned in close to her cheek and said in a deep voice, "How about you accompany me for a few more nights? Then, for the sake of our long-standing friendship, I'll reluctantly give you another 500,000?"
As he spoke, he let out a few cold laughs and casually took out a card from his pocket, tossing it onto the table.
"Here, there's exactly five hundred thousand in here. What do you say, consider it?"
Just then, Ren Yuanhao suddenly revealed a sinister smile, grabbed the card, and snapped his fingers, summoning a waiter.
"What are you doing!" Yue Ran was about to snatch the card back, but Ren Yuanhao pushed him away.
"Sir, what are your instructions?"
The waiter quickly crossed the aisle, bowing slightly, his voice clear. Ren Yuanhao slapped the card into his hand and announced loudly, "Everyone present, this young master is treating you all today. Here's the card, please eat and drink your fill!"
A series of cheers erupted from the hall. Yue Ran, caught in a predicament, had no choice but to nod generously at the waiter.
Even though he wore a mask, Ren Yuanhao and Xiao Yue could seemingly see the agonizing expression on his face.
A long-lost smile finally appeared on Xiao Yue's face.
"Hmph, good kid, don't think you've gotten away with it. This feud is settled today. I, Yue Ran, will surely have my revenge!"
Yue Ran turned and left in anger. At this moment, Ren Yuanhao suddenly saw an extremely familiar figure wearing a mask entering the hall. The moment they met, the two headed towards a car. Before leaving, Yue Ran did not forget to kick Ren Yuanhao's pink electric scooter to the ground and gave Ren Yuanhao the middle finger.
—That person looked like Shen Lan Ni, but I have a mission to complete now, what should I do!
Ren Yuanhao couldn't care less. Taking advantage of Yue Ran's outburst at his pink electric scooter, he grabbed Xiao Yue and rushed out of the door. Without a word, he yanked open the door of Yue Ran's Tesla.
"What, my car is very expensive. Be careful with your hands, lest you break something you can't afford to fix!"
He then glanced at the passenger seat, almost certain it was Shen Lan Ni. An inexplicable rage surged to his head. The angrier he became, the more chilling his smile grew.
He said, "Xiao Yue, this bastard bullied you like this before. Today, you can kick wherever you want. If you break it, I'll pay for it!"
"You kick it, can you afford to pay for it?"
As soon as Yue Ran finished speaking, he heard a helicopter rapidly descending. Through the lights, a red Ferrari Enzo was steadily parked at the entrance of the hall.
This cool entrance immediately drew everyone's attention.
"DiDi, your private vehicle has arrived via helicopter."
Ren Yuanhao brushed his clothes, took out a very special key from his pocket, and dangled it in front of Yue Ran. "My ride for hauling goods has arrived. Xiao Yue, what are you waiting for? Kick it however you like!"
