"Brother Yu, good to see you, Brother Yu." The eager young man approached Yu Tianlin, as his previously arrogant expression turned into one of respectful compliance.

The young woman's eyes also lit up, and she seemed to flirt with Yu Tianlin intentionally or unintentionally.

"Who are you?" Yu Tianlin looked at the other with confusion, feeling as if he had seen him somewhere before, but he couldn't quite remember. After all, in society every day, many people are just faces he's come across, and he couldn't be expected to remember every insignificant person he's met.

Seeing that Yu Tianlin failed to recognize him, the young man was not upset at all. Instead, he became even more enthusiastically ingratiating as he said, "Brother Yu, it's me, Wang! I had the privilege of meeting you and Brother Zhang Yang at Royal One when I used to follow Big Head Fei."

He dared not mention drinking in front of Yu Tianlin, as at that time, he wasn't even considered a sidekick.

Yu Tianlin thought for a moment, and a vague memory seemed to emerge.

"Oh, Wang, I apologize, I've been busy lately and didn't recognize you at first," Yu Tianlin responded with a friendly smile, speaking neither haughtily nor humbly. He did not offend, but also gave no room for the other to overstep; a response as calm and untroubled as water.

The young man looked at Yu Tianlin excitedly, eagerness shining in his eyes, nodding obediently like a pecking chicken: "How could you say that, Brother Yu? It's a great honor just to be remembered by you."

Yu Tianlin nodded indifferently, and throughout the conversation, he never once glanced at the young woman who kept batting her eyelids flirtatiously at him. To him, women were secondary; if he wanted women, he could have a multitude at any time.

"I'll head inside first, I have something to attend to. I'll have Big Head Fei call you another day, and we can all go out for a drink."

After speaking, Yu Tianlin walked towards Lin Hai's location; he didn't want to keep the man with the mysterious background, "Brother Lin," waiting too long.

The young man and woman, seeing Yu Tianlin's disinterest, were far from angry. Instead, they were thrilled. Being able to talk with a person as distinguished as Young Master Yu satisfied them greatly. Relationships need to be built and deepened slowly.

In their eyes, for someone of Young Master Yu's esteemed status to stoop to talk to them was already enough to make them feel overwhelmingly flattered.

The young man and woman glanced at the direction Yu Tianlin had gone, which was towards Lin Hai, and after exchanging looks, a hint of conspiratorial calculation flashed in their eyes.

The young man nodded at his female companion and shouted after Yu Tianlin in a flattering way: "Take care, Brother Yu. And you, the security guard, please step aside a bit. There was no problem with you blocking our way earlier, just don't interfere with Brother Yu."

Following his lead, the young woman also said: "Excuse us, sir security guard. It was a misunderstanding earlier. Could you please make some room, and don't block Brother Yu's path?"

The young man and woman had a simple objective: to display a magnanimous appearance preemptively, behaving politely, and then, as they anticipated, the security guard who had spouted vulgar and lowly words earlier would, without doubt, react unfavorably towards them due to their prior altercation.

If the security guard used vulgar and sleazy language to retort, they could completely shift the conflict onto Young Master Yu.

Having offended Prince-like Young Master Yu, recognized by the entire underground society of Huadu, the security guard's fate was easy to predict. Without Young Master Yu having to lift a finger or utter a word, those wanting to curry favor with Young Master Yu would take initiative to trouble this detestable security guard.

This was a classic case of using others to do their dirty work, which the young man and woman played to perfection.

They waited for the security guard to retort and then inadvertently dig his own grave.

"Humph, security guard, you're dead meat if you try to fight me," the young woman thought to herself, looking forward to Lin Hai spewing those vulgar and sleazy words and thus turning Young Master Yu against him.

After the young man spoke, his eyes gleamed with thinly-veiled schadenfreude, his arms crossed, ready to enjoy the drama about to unfold.

Lin Hai smiled without a word, still unmoved, standing his ground.

The waitress was extremely anxious. He knew all too well who Young Master Yu was—a great and untouchable figure who should never be crossed.

"No, I can't just watch this silly little security guard get harmed. If it provokes the anger of Young Master Yu and by chance brings disaster upon the innocent, I'm also going to suffer."

The more the waiter thought about it, the more frightened he became. He quickly took a deep breath and hurried to Lin Hai's side, intending to persuade him to leave.

"This silly and sleazy security guard is done for, remaining so indifferent, he probably doesn't know who he's blocking, there's going to be a good show." The young woman thought gleefully, as she seemed to have already foreseen Lin Hai's fate.

The waiter stretched out his hand, about to tap Lin Hai on the shoulder, but then he saw Yu Tianlin speak.

"Brother Lin, sorry to have kept you waiting."

After speaking, Yu Tianlin comfortably bent forward slightly, showing an extremely respectful expression.

"He he, the little security guard is dead for sure; now that Young Master Yu has spoken, this security guard is definitely going to die very..." The young woman was smugly thinking, but suddenly choked.

The young man was startled for a moment, then vigorously dug into his ears.

Why is the situation a bit different from what he thought?

The hand the waiter stretched out hung in mid-air, equally in disbelief.

"He he, it's nothing. Right, did you make a reservation?" Lin Hai asked with a smile.

Yu Tianlin replied with utmost respect: "Brother Lin, I am a VIP guest here, no reservation is needed. I'll get one for you later too. The staff here don't recognize you, please don't blame them."

"It's fine, it's not easy for them either," Lin Hai said smilingly.

Yu Tianlin expressed his admiration: "Brother Lin is magnanimous, I am ashamed I can't learn from you."

The young man almost popped his eyeballs out, utterly shocked.

The young woman vigorously rubbed her beautiful eyes and then dug into her ears with force. Still with a face of disbelief, she looked at Lin Hai with shock.

"This... this... Young Master Yu is actually calling that poor security guard 'big brother'?"

"Did I hear wrong? Or are my ears playing tricks on me?"

"Young Master Yu, Huadu's Young Master Yu, is actually so respectful to a little security guard?" The waiter's heart was like a stormy sea, secretly glad he was polite earlier. Otherwise, if Lin Hai were truly angered, with just a word from Young Master Yu, he might not know how he died.

"Brother Lin, please."

Yu Tianlin took the initiative to open the door, taking on the role of the waiter, and made a polite inviting gesture with his hand.

Lin Hai didn't mind, smiled, and walked in with his head held high and hands behind his back, striding into the café.

Upon entering, Lin Hai suddenly turned back, unintentionally or otherwise, glancing at the arrogant young man and woman from earlier.

The young man and woman quickly avoided his gaze, pretending not to see, but their heartbeats had already started racing.

Yu Tianlin, with a smile, welcomed Lin Hai into the coffee shop. Afterward, he also looked towards the door at the young man and woman, already with shocked expressions. However, his gaze was much fiercer than Lin Hai's, tinged with admonishment and threat.
