Chapter 434: Chapter 209: Want to Show Off Your Wealth in Front of Your Brother?_3

If Luo Zijun missed this chance, with Han Lie right there, who knew how much longer he’d keep fantasizing? So Huang Li didn’t hold back at all, not hesitating to offend both Han Lie and Chen Yanfei as she went for the jugular.

Han Lie wasn’t angry; instead, he quite admired Huang Li. Love... if you don’t fight for it yourself, who can you expect to step aside for you? It wasn’t about stirring up trouble. At most, it was exposing the truth. She’d done a pretty good job.

Chen Yanfei, with her magnanimous personality, simply smiled at Huang Li, considering the matter settled.

By then, the dishes had been ordered, and everyone courteously took their seats, waiting for the meal. Chen Yanfei sat in the middle, with Little White on her left and that infuriating man on her right, while the rest of the boys and girls alternated seats.

"Yan Yan, want some wine?" Little White asked eagerly, in high spirits.

Before Chen Yanfei could respond, Luo Zijun cut in, "Yes, wine! Waitress, bring the wine list!"

He was, after all, just a young man, finding it hard to control his emotions.

Chen Yanfei thought for a moment, then glanced at Han Lie. Seeing that infuriating man was just smiling with no intention of intervening, she finally agreed to the group’s enthusiastic suggestion.

"Alright, just a little beer and champagne then. We’re going to KTV later, so let’s not drink too much."

It was a good idea, but unfortunately, Luo Zijun’s stubborn streak kicked in.

Cultivation was one thing, but a young man heartbroken in love could hardly remain calm.

"There’ll be plenty of beer at the KTV later. This meal is mostly on me, so I’ll treat everyone to something strong!"

He opened the wine list, went straight to the first few pictures on the front page, and without a second thought, ordered two bottles of Romanée-Conti and two bottles of Cristal Champagne.

The Romanée-Conti was a 2004 vintage, rated only 94 points by *Burgundy Wine Lovers*, incomparable to the best years. Yet, at the Ritz-Carlton, it still cost 108,888 yuan per bottle. Buying it from a wine merchant, it would probably cost around forty to fifty thousand a bottle, which just showed how unscrupulous luxury hotels could be. The Cristal Champagne was from 2002, also not a prime vintage, and similarly overpriced at 32,000 yuan a bottle.

With just four bottles of wine, Luo Zijun had blown through 280,000 yuan.

At first, no one noticed. It wasn’t until a curious Xiao Zhi picked up the wine list to browse and let out a shocked exclamation that everyone realized what Luo Zijun had done.

"Damn it! Young Master Luo, are you trying to scare me to death?!"

"What the hell? Let me see!"

"Holy—! Six figures?!"

Chen Yanfei quickly tried to stop him, not wanting him to order such expensive wine. But Luo Zijun replied, seemingly calm, "Don’t worry about it. I only drink wine of this caliber at home. Today’s a happy occasion, so I’m treating everyone."

Frankly, the posturing was a bit stiff, but it was impressive enough. It was just that his control over his expression wasn’t very good. If he had sounded happy and actually looked cheerful, Chen Yanfei might have believed him, even if just a little. But seeing Luo Zijun’s forced composure, it was obvious he was acting out of pique.

Chen Yanfei wasn’t angry, but she did feel a headache coming on. She didn’t want to seem too forceful; Luo Zijun probably couldn’t handle any more provocation right now. If there was truly no other way, she’d have to risk ending the night on a sour note to stop him. But wasn’t that infuriating man still there?

Instinctively, she looked to Han Lie for help.

Tough guy, your cue!

Han Lie understood, but he didn’t rush. Instead, he quietly and unhurriedly asked, "What’s in it for me?"

Chen Yanfei ground her teeth, squeezing out through them, "Is me being your girlfriend enough?"

Brother Lie looked at her with an unreadable expression. "And who exactly benefits from that?"

"So, you’re not going to help me, is that it?" Chen Yanfei stared daggers at that infuriating man, issuing her ultimate threat. "Then I’m flipping the table! We’re ending this party early!"

"Alright, alright, you win, I’m scared of you..." Han Lie immediately raised his hands in surrender.

There are major activities planned for later; it can’t end prematurely. Once in the KTV, with the lights dimmed, someone soft and curvy to his left, someone sweet-smelling to his right, sipping drinks and playing games—how thrilling would that be?

"Wait here!"

Han Lie accepted the task but didn’t rush to talk to Luo Zijun.

How do you reason with a kid who’s all worked up? Best not to engage at all!

He quietly fiddled with his phone in his pocket, and soon, it rang.

Brother Lie took out the phone, glanced at it, then stood up and said to everyone, "Excuse me, I need to take this call."

Outside the main hall, he intercepted Alin, who was giving instructions to the kitchen staff.

"Mr. Han, any instructions?"

Han Lie went straight for the kill regarding Luo Zijun’s plan.

"That young man inside—no matter what wine he orders, tell him the hotel is out of stock!"

"Ah?!" Alin was stunned.

Han Lie wasn’t one to demand work without reward, so he quickly added, "The wine he ordered, put it aside for me. I’ll settle the bill before I leave. But if *he* asks for it, the hotel doesn’t have it!"

Alin finally understood. The young married woman blinked, suppressing a smile, and asked, "In that case, what price range of wine does the hotel currently have in stock?"

Brother Lie stroked his chin thoughtfully, then drew a line. "Nothing over ten thousand yuan!"

"As you wish!" Alin bowed slightly and re-entered the dining area through a side service passage.

Brother Lie, hands in his pockets, smirked.

Punk, in my territory, you think I can’t handle you? Trying to flaunt your wealth in front of me? You’re still too green for that...
