Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations
At this point, he couldn’t care less about his dignity. He went straight to Mei Shu and begged, “Miss Mei, I was blind and ignorant. Please spare me, okay? I beg you, I never meant to oppose you! If I had known your identity earlier, even if you lent me a hundred guts, I wouldn’t have dared!”
Mei Shu felt disgusted by his pleading. She looked down at the broken pieces of glass on the ground, remembered his arrogant and unreasonable behavior just now, and an idea surfaced in her mind. “Young Master Zhou, I never intended to target you. Tell Mr. Zhou, didn’t you yourself say that you were willing to accept the outcome of the bet just now?”
Zhou Chen swallowed nervously, deeply regretting his reckless actions during the gambling game with Mei Shu.
His neck stiffened as he glanced towards Zhou Lin, but Zhou Lin’s glare terrified him, and he stammered, “Y-Yes! I did! But Miss Mei, there are so many people here, can’t you spare me from doing that? How about I find a restaurant and treat you? I’ll personally apologize to you, what do you think?”
Mei Shu smiled sweetly, her smile radiant.
Zhou Chen hastily followed suit, “Miss Mei, is that acceptable to you?”
“No,” Mei Shu said, retracting her smile. She sat back on the sofa, looked at her legs, and adopted an even more arrogant attitude than Zhou Chen, “You said you were willing to accept the outcome. If you’re unwilling, I can have Jiang Hai assist you.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Hai moved to take action.
Zhou Chen quickly sought refuge behind Zhou Lin, but a stern look from Zhou Lin frightened him, and he hastily pleaded, “Please, Miss Mei, let’s talk it out! I’m still the young master of the Zhou family. Isn’t this inappropriate? How about I apologize to you right now?”
Ignoring his pleas, Mei Shu signaled to Jiang Hai.
Zhou Chen turned to his father for help, “Dad, please help me! I really can’t do this! It’s not just my face at stake here, but also yours!”
Zhou Lin pondered for a moment, his Adam’s apple bobbing up and down. He said in a low voice, “Miss Mei, why don’t we do as my son says? I’ll personally hold a banquet to apologize to you and we just let this matter go. How about that?”
Mei Shu’s face darkened. She took the wine glass from the singer’s hand and smashed it. “If you’re willing to bet, you have to accept the result. Don’t you Zhou family understand this principle?”
Zhou Lin was rendered speechless. He was silent for a long time before he finally compromised. He pulled a long face and called out coldly, “Ah Chen! Do as Miss Mei says!”
“Dad!” Zhou Chen pleaded, but received no response.
In the current situation, as long as Mei Shu didn’t relent, he would lose face today, no matter what!
He glanced at Mei Shu, seeing her casually raise an eyebrow at him, and his frustration and anger grew, but he had no outlet for it, especially with his father present!
If not for his father being there, even with Mei Shu’s powerful background, he would have taught her a lesson!
But for now, he had to endure!
After considering his options, Zhou Chen closed his eyes, silently removed all his clothing that covered him, then walked to the center of the dance floor, took a deep breath, and shouted loudly, “I am gay! I am gay! I am gay!”
The surrounding people were shocked into silence.
No one had expected that Zhou Chen’s punishment after losing the bet would be this! No wonder he had been so reluctant!
After his declaration, Zhou Chen returned to his seat with an air of indignation, hastily dressed himself, his expression cold enough to freeze water.
Zhou Lin’s face also looked sullen.
His son had embarrassed himself in public, and he had no face left either. But with Mei Shu still there, he dared not leave in anger. He could only stand stiffly in place and forced a smile, his lips twitching, “Miss Mei, can I take Ah Chen and leave now?”
Mei Shu lazily reclined on the sofa, looking satisfied. “Of course.”
With her consent, Zhou Lin was almost eager to leave.
But the next moment, Mei Shu stood up and walked over, saying, “Before you leave, Mr. Zhou, there’s something you need to be clear about.”
Zhou Lin struggled to maintain a smile, his lips twitching constantly. “Please, go ahead.”
Mei Shu said, “Last night on Wendith’s island, your son and his female companion, Xiao Yuan, broke into my room, attempted to drug me and committed a crime against me. Today he came specifically to tell me that if I lost the bet, I would have to go upstairs to sleep with him. The songstress sister can attest to this. If you don’t believe me, you can ask around.”
After hearing this, Zhou Lin’s anger surged!
He had wondered why Mei Shu offended him for no reason. It turned out his disobedient son had first harbored malicious intentions towards her and was now facing her retaliation!
This useless son was causing him trouble!
With that thought, Zhou Lin couldn’t contain his anger anymore.. He had never lost control like this before, but today, in front of so many people, he angrily roared, “All of you, take Zhou Chen back home! I’ll deal with him myself! And that Xiao Yuan, bring her along too, banish them from Wendith, and make sure I never see that disgrace again!”
