Chapter 4: Beating You for Not Adhering to Womanly Virtue

The waiter picked up the gold card and glanced at it, his eyes instantly bulging out.

This was their restaurant's supreme VIP gold card!

One had to make a one-time recharge of over a million to obtain it!

Cold sweat suddenly covered his forehead, and his legs couldn't help but tremble. Then, he bent his waist at a ninety-degree angle and bowed deeply to Chen Fan.

"I'm... I'm so sorry, I was blind and offended this esteemed guest, I deserve to die, I beg for your forgiveness, I won't dare to do it again!"

Chen Fan felt quite pleased and nodded with a smile, "Alright, from now on, be polite to everyone, no matter who they are. You're in the service industry, what's the point of acting all high and mighty, got it?"

"Yes! I will certainly heed your advice!" The waiter bowed to Chen Fan once again.

Chen Fan didn't say anything more and went into the western restaurant with Su Qingyan.

On the second floor of the restaurant, by the window.

In front of Chen Fan were six steaks, and he was enjoying them immensely.

Su Qingyan's expression returned to her usual cool detachment. Compared to Chen Fan's voracious eating, her movements were elegant, and she carried an air of Immortal Qi about her, occasionally cutting a small piece of beef to take a bite.

Her attention was mostly on Chen Fan.

After filling his stomach, Chen Fan looked up with a smile at Su Qingyan, "Miss Su, thank you for standing up for me earlier, I haven't felt so refreshed in a long time."

"I simply couldn't stand that sort of snobbery," Su Qingyan said indifferently. Then she glanced at Chen Fan, "That... when I said outside you were my husband, it was to get you out of a bind, don't overthink it."

Chen Fan smiled, "Understood, I am well aware."

"Hmph." Su Qingyan turned her head away.

"Miss Su, what brings you back to me?" Chen Fan changed the subject.

"I did as you said, changed the order of adding lotus leaves and oriental wormwood, the production line issue has been solved, I came to thank you," Su Qingyan said.

"Miss Su, you're being too polite, it was only a small effort, besides, I was... what I did to you last night... all that is what I should do." Chen Fan looked guilty.

Su Qingyan snorted coldly, with a businesslike demeanor, "Keep things separate, don't bring up last night's events again."

Chen Fan could only nod his head.

Just then, a figure passed by them, then walked back, turned around, and looked at Chen Fan.

"Chen Fan!" A roar erupted.

Chen Fan turned his head to look and was surprised to see Qin Lan.

Qin Lan was dressed to the nines, looking sexy, and seemed to be there for a date.

"Look at you, daring to talk about divorce with me. You've been hooking up behind my back!"

"Explain yourself, what's the deal with this vixen!" Qin Lan pointed at Su Qingyan, her face twisted with rage.

Many people in the restaurant started looking their way.

Frowning, Chen Fan stood up and pushed away Qin Lan's finger, "Don't talk nonsense, she's a friend of mine. And can you keep it down? Aren't you afraid of making a spectacle of yourself?"

Qin Lan laughed coldly, "You're already hooking up with vixens behind my back, and you're still worried about being laughed at? Chen Fan, do you even care about your reputation anymore?"

Chen Fan's anger surged as he glared at Qin Lan, "It's fine for you to cheat on me, but I can't have a meal with a friend? Qin Lan, between the two of us, who should really be ashamed?"

Feeling guilty, Qin Lan retorted, "Who... who cheated on you? Don't slander me here, do you have any proof?"

"Proof? You and Sun Jiancheng did that right under my nose, what more proof do you want? You dressed up like this today for a date with Sun Jiancheng, didn't you?" Chen Fan was full of fury.

Qin Lan's momentum weakened, but she persisted stubbornly, "I don't care, you have to give me an explanation today!"

Then she turned to Su Qingyan, feeling envious of the woman who was excessively beautiful, which was the main reason she was so angry, "And you, you wretched vixen, who gave you the nerve to seduce my husband!"

Su Qingyan gave Qin Lan a glance, stood up from her seat, approached her, her gaze icy cold.

Although Qin Lan was showing her teeth and claws, standing next to Su Qingyan, the difference in stature was immediately apparent.

With just a glance, Su Qingyan had already overwhelmed Qin Lan in terms of aura.

SMACK!

A crisp slap resounded.

Qin Lan's face now bore a bright red handprint.

"This slap is for your disrespectful words!" Su Qingyan's voice was cold and clear.

Qin Lan covered her face, her eyes bulging round, "You..."

SMACK!

Another slap followed.

"This slap is for not acting like a lady!"

"You... this..."

SMACK!

"And this slap is for your lack of manners!"

Both sides of Qin Lan's face swelled up from the slapping.

Staring blankly at the girl before her, who was as delicate as a flower, Qin Lan could never have imagined that the other party would act so decisively.

"I'm going to fight you!" Qin Lan was like a madwoman.

Su Qingyan raised her hand again.

Qin Lan instantly lost her nerve, stepping back twice and reaching up to rub her face.

She turned her head to Chen Fan with a look of grievance, "Chen Fan, you're just going to stand there and watch her hit me? Help me teach her a lesson!"

Chen Fan wordlessly curled his lips, "You had it coming."

Qin Lan stomped her feet in fury.

SNAP.

Her high heel broke, and she staggered and fell to the ground, hitting her head on a chair.

"Wuwuwu, it hurts so much... You dog man and woman, I will never let you off!" Qin Lan, holding her head, cried in despair.

"What did you just call us?" Su Qingyan walked towards Qin Lan, staring at her.

Startled, Qin Lan quickly got up from the ground, abandoned her high heels, flung them aside, and ran towards the exit in a fluster.

"Chen Fan, you wait for me, I will make sure you regret this!"

As she ran out of the restaurant, the stones on the road hurt her feet, adding a few degrees of grievance to her heart.

"Chen Fan, I really didn't expect you to be such a shameless person, it seems the way you were in front of me these past three years was all an act!"

"I must have been blind to think that you were sincere towards me!"

"I will definitely avenge today's grudge!"

Talking to herself, Qin Lan dialed Sun Jiancheng's number.

"Darling, don't worry, I'll come to you after I finish up my work here, just wait a bit longer," Sun Jiancheng's voice came through the phone.

"No need to come, I'm already furious. Head to my place now, today that wimp Chen Fan actually let a vixen hit me, I want revenge; meet me at my house to discuss our plan when I get back."

After speaking, Qin Lan angrily hung up the phone.

Then she glared malevolently in the direction of the restaurant's second floor, spat disdainfully, and walked to the roadside to hail a taxi and leave.
