Chapter 38
Noticing that his wife was not embarrassed by him and was helping him out, Fade suddenly felt warmth in his heart. He approached her and said intimately, "Dear, thank you."
Quin glared at him and said in a low voice, "Put down the steak."
Fade chuckled and said, "I'm not full yet!"
When Howard saw the two people chatting intimately, the coldness in his eyes became stronger. Howard smiled and said in an exaggerated long voice, "I didn't expect that he was Miss Lin's husband. I was really surprised! I didn't expect to meet such a rude person on such an occasion."
Hearing this, Quin was angry and was about to speak. However, Fade took the lead and stood out. Fade chewed on the steak in his mouth and said to Howard, "I really want to ask you, Mr. Zhang, why does eating steak make me a bad-mannered person?"
"Humph!" Howard snorted. "This is a high-end party. Those who attend it are all high-end people. Some people are born vulgar and don't even know how to eat. Don't participate in this party. It's embarrassing and affects the atmosphere of the party."
"It's just a meal. Just eat with your mouth. Don’t talk about etiquette to me or you will just sound like you are showing off!" Fade curled his lip and said.
"You are vulgar!" Howard said disdainfully, "Let's not talk about complex concepts. Do you know how to use basic cutlery? Do you know the order of a course meal?"
Fade shook his head and said, "I don't know about you but not knowing these does not make a person uncivilized. On the contrary, I think that people who are self-righteous and despise others are more vulgar."
"Nonsense!" Howard snorted and said, "Being vulgar is being vulgar. How awful!"
Fade said:” So you can differentiate between the rich and poor just by their style of eating?! May I know what kind of noble way do you eat, Mr. Zhang?" NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
"A beggar like you does not deserve to know my way of eating." Howard mocked him.
"Beggar!" Fade's eyes turned frosty. He picked up a piece of steak with the fork in his hand and threw it at Howard.
"Pa!" This hefty steak was smashed on Howard's face. The splashing sauce from the meat made Howard's face a mess. His cheeks were swollen due to the heavy force.
Howard had never suffered such a catastrophe in public. Howard became furious and threw the steak on the ground and shouted, "Security guard! Come here and beat him harshly."
The security guards rushed over again. This time, there were more people, five or six in total, who surrounded Fade in unison.
Fade and the security guards fought. Seeing this, the little girl, Fish pouted in anger. Fish threw out the half-eaten steak in her hand towards Howard. "Bad guy, you are a bad guy. You bullied me and Superman."
Unexpectedly, Fish is strong for her age. This time, half a piece of steak was hit on Howard's face again.
Howard was fuming with anger. He stared at the little girl with a ferocious face and shouted angrily, "Are you courting death?"
At the same time, Howard raised his right hand and was about to slap the little girl in the face. Judging from his momentum, if the little girl was hit, she would definitely be badly injured.
But just then, a hurried female voice suddenly shouted, "Stop."
At the same time, the clacking of high heels resounded and a 30-year-old young woman came in hastily with anger and anxiety.
The young woman was wearing a tight purple dress, which outlined her perfect body. Under her black curly hair, her slender eyes looked very tempting. A little black mole next to her left eyebrow added a unique charm.
Like a ripe red apple, her every movement exuded an alluring smell.
The young woman attracted everyone's attention, but at this moment, Howard, whose mind was occupied by anger, had no time to care about this. Howard's palm moved with the wind and was about to hit the little girl's face. He scolded fiercely, "B*tch!"
Seeing this, the young woman was furious. She quickly stepped forward and stood in front of the little girl to block Howard's slap.
Howard shouted angrily, "Get out of the way..."
But before Howard finished his words, he finally saw the woman's face clearly, he was so scared that he shivered and quickly withdrew his hand. Howard forced out an unappealing smile and said to the young woman, "Miss Wu, why are you here?"
"What's wrong with me being here? Do you want to beat me and my daughter?" The young woman said coldly.
At this moment, Howard was crying in his heart. Howard did not expect that this woman would appear and that the uncivilized girl was her daughter.
They must know, that the young woman in front of him was the most important figure in this banquet. She was the only daughter of Mayor Wu, Mindy Wu. Then this little girl was Mayor Wu's favorite granddaughter, Fish Song.
However, Mindy and Fish rarely attend parties. Unfortunately for Howard, he had provoked them and was now in serious trouble.
Although Mayor Wu has retired, he had been working hard in Bay City for many years. Mr. Wu had a deep foundation and a wide network of people. These businessmen were no match for him.
Moreover, Charles Wu, the son of Mr. Wu who was also Mindy's brother, was a big shot in the business world. The Red Star Mall founded by Charles Wu was not only doing well in Bay City but also had received a great response from the citizens in the provincial cities. Charles Wu’s net worth had already increased by more than 10 billion.
Howard, who was usually arrogant, also had to bow his head at this moment because he knew that if he opposed Mayor Wu, he would bring great trouble to his own family.
Taking a breath, Howard squeezed out a smile and explained, "Miss Wu, it's just a misunderstanding. I, I just..."
Mindy interrupted him and coldly said, "Whether it's a misunderstanding or not, I can see it clearly. You don't have to speak."
The little girl, Fish, said in a childish voice, "Mom, he just scolded me and wanted to hit me."
Howard's face was stiff and beads of sweat started to appear on his forehead. He quickly bowed sincerely and said in a low voice, "Miss Wu, I'm really sorry for offending Fish. It's my fault. I sincerely apologize to you and your daughter. I hope you can forgive me."
The little girl, Fish, said unhappily, "You called someone to beat Superman, you must apologize to him too!"
Howard's face twitched. Howard held back his unhappiness and forced a smile and apologized to Fade with a 90-degree bow, "Mr. Chen, I'm sorry for what happened just now. I sincerely apologize
to you."
