La forgeronne d'un autre monde

Chapitre 413

"Why go? A mere 100,000 yuan is nothing to us. We're not short of money," Mrs. Jin said casually.

"We can't possibly finish this, we're not hungry at all," my uncle said awkwardly.

"It's okay, I'm hungry, my boyfriend will be here soon," Shen Mange said calmly.

"Boyfriend? Mange, don't lie to your aunt. I've already had someone investigate. You've never had a boyfriend before. Besides, our family is a prestigious one. I would never allow my son to marry an unclean woman. That would ruin our family's reputation. You're just joking with your aunt." Jin's mother said with a forced smile.

She did send people to investigate, but she didn't know that Ma Yunteng had kept the news under wraps to protect the girls, and ordinary people simply couldn't find out the relationship between those girls and him.

“I’m not joking,” Shen Mange said seriously.

"What?" Jin's mother's face gradually darkened. Shen Mange's aunt and uncle also glared at her fiercely, thinking to themselves, "This silly girl, how can she bring another man along on a blind date? Isn't she just making things difficult for herself?"

In their view, they could be completely at ease if Shen Mange could marry Wang Jin.

"Mom, it's alright. It's good that he's here. It'll give me a chance to see what it really means to be rich and successful," Wang Jin said with a disdainful smile.

"Mange, I'm late."

As soon as Wang Jin finished speaking, a loud voice suddenly came from outside the door. Upon hearing the voice, Shen Mange immediately sat up from her seat to greet the handsome and imposing figure.

Chapter 297 Master Kong Braised Beef Noodles

"Mange, I'm late."

Just as Wang Jin finished speaking, a loud voice suddenly came from outside the door. Upon hearing the voice, Shen Mange immediately sat up from her seat to greet the handsome and imposing figure.

Upon hearing this voice, everyone except Shen Mange immediately turned pale, especially Wang Jin, whose eyes flashed with anger. Today, he was determined to show Ma Yunteng his power.

"Let me introduce you, this is my boyfriend, Ma Yunteng," Shen Mange said as she walked up to them, linking her arm with Ma Yunteng's.

What does this mean?

Jin's mother's face was ashen as she glared angrily at Shen Mange's aunt and uncle. She had initially thought Shen Mange was joking, but it turned out to be true; Shen Mange really did have a boyfriend, which contradicted her previous investigation.

Shen Mange's aunt and uncle didn't say anything, but their expressions showed that they were both very unhappy. It wasn't because they looked down on Ma Yunteng, but because they had already made Wang Jin their first choice, and Ma Yunteng's presence here would only ruin their good deed.

"Shen Mange, you should probably explain this to your aunt." Jin's mother spoke with an air of superiority.

"I told you I have a boyfriend, but you guys just didn't believe me," Shen Mange said indifferently.

"Mom!" Wang Jin suddenly placed his hand on his mother's shoulder. "It's okay, I don't care. I will prove to Mange today who is the man she can entrust her life to."

"No, the daughter-in-law I want must have a clean background," Jin's mother said disdainfully.

"Our Mange is very well-behaved, not as dirty as you say!" Shen Mange's aunt started to get angry. What the other party said was too harsh, as if they were saying that Shen Mange was immoral. They had always thought that Shen Mange was a very virtuous and well-behaved child.

"Mom, shut up and watch me." Wang Jin suddenly smiled strangely, then stood up and walked towards Ma Yunteng, his expression extremely disdainful, "I don't know what gives you the courage to pursue Mange. Can you give Mange happiness?"

Ma Yunteng didn't even glance at him, not even wasting a glance on him. Instead, he sat down next to Shen Mange, which made Wang Jin look extremely embarrassed. He was clearly asking Ma Yunteng a question, but the other party completely ignored him. He was the one who always ignored others.

"Hmph! You're so young, yet you've got quite the airs." Mrs. Jin said huffily.

"Mom, it's okay, watch me."

Wang Jin forced himself to suppress his anger at being ignored and comforted his mother. Then, he generously tossed the menu directly in front of Ma Yunteng and said with a smile, "Judging from your clothes, I can tell you've never been to such a high-end hotel before. Mingyue Hotel is the most luxurious five-star hotel in H City. The average cost per person is at least five thousand. The food here is plentiful and there are also fine wines. Thank you for taking care of Mange before. Here, you can order whatever you want from this menu. Wine is fine too. Don't worry, I'm very rich."

Upon hearing this, Jin's mother nodded in satisfaction, feeling that her son had grown up and matured. His words seemed to be telling Ma Yunteng directly, "From now on, Shen Mange is my responsibility. You can go back to whoever you are after you finish this meal."

Even Shen Mange's aunt and uncle praised his words.

They all thought that although Wang Jin's words were pretentious, they were very classy. An immature man might have started a fight with Ma Yunteng on the spot in this situation, but Wang Jin actually thanked him, subtly showing off his superiority in the process.

"Hmph, the red wine that Brother Teng has drunk," Shen Mange immediately wanted to argue, wanting to say that Ma Yunteng had drunk billions of dollars worth of red wine, but her words were stopped by Ma Yunteng as soon as she spoke.

Ma Yunteng wasn't angry at all. Instead, he asked with a smile, "You just said I could order whatever I wanted, right?"

“That’s right, in my eyes these prices are very low. You can order whatever you want, I can afford it.” Wang Jin patted his chest proudly as he looked at Ma Yunteng.

"Forehead!"

Ma Yunteng was slightly taken aback, thinking that this guy was quite generous. He casually glanced at the menu, then threw it on the table and looked at the showy waitress, saying, "Give me a bowl of Master Kong braised beef noodles."

What?

Upon hearing Ma Yunteng's words, Shen Mange was stunned. She blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at Ma Yunteng with disbelief. In her heart, she cursed: "Damn it... This is a five-star hotel, and you actually ordered instant noodles! Do you even know what 'shameful' means?"

Shen Mange's aunt and uncle couldn't help but swallow hard. They could tell that Ma Yunteng was dressed plainly and wasn't as rich as Wang Jin, but they didn't treat him like a country bumpkin. However, Ma Yunteng's words were really too low-class. Ordering instant noodles in a five-star hotel? Have you never eaten instant noodles before?

"Hahaha!" Wang Jin and his mother burst into laughter. They had guessed that Ma Yunteng was poor, but they never expected him to be such a country bumpkin. In their eyes, instant noodles were unhealthy food for poor people, and Ma Yunteng ordering instant noodles in a five-star hotel was a sign of poverty!

"I'm sorry, sir, the lowest price we offer here is a vegetarian platter for 500 yuan. We've never sold the Master Kong beef noodles you mentioned for 4.5 yuan," the waitress said apologetically.

"Hey kid, are you used to being poor? Please look carefully, this is a five-star hotel, not your usual small restaurant! You're embarrassing us by ordering instant noodles... Damn, do you want me to give you another two ounces of Niulanshan liquor?" Wang Jin said, looking at him with disdain.

Ma Yunteng ignored him and instead looked at the waiter who was standing there dumbfounded with a smile: "Oh right, I have a habit when I eat instant noodles: I like to add something."

"You're adding something else? What kind of thing? Ham sausage?"

Wang Jin was immediately amused by him, and looked at the beautiful waitress with a playful gaze, saying, "Okay, okay, whatever he wants! Give him a cup of instant noodles, and then add two sausages. Oh, and an egg too, that would be more nutritious!"

"Are you an idiot? Who wants to add those things?"

A wicked smile crept across Ma Yunteng's lips as he looked at the beautiful waitress and continued, "Listen up! Everything I want to add is very cheap: one Boston lobster! One Maldivian sea cucumber! One piece of golden thread grass!"
