Tang Ao's Shameless Audacity

When Ye Chen finished speaking, he noticed the two managers looking at him with a strange expression, which filled his heart with delight.

To Ye Chen, revealing this riddle was proof of his identity as the boss.

The two managers were just too shocked to react for a moment. Once they snapped out of it, they would naturally acknowledge his status as the boss, apologize profusely, and respectfully invite him inside!

Next, not only could he rightfully walk into the restaurant, but he could also use his identity as the boss to earn Lin Ruoxue a lot of face at her class reunion, significantly boosting her affection for him!

As Ye Chen was immersed in his pleasant fantasies, the words of the two managers suddenly shattered his illusions: "I've suspected you for a while now. How dare you pretend in front of us! Do you even know where you are?"

The assistant manager, seeing the manager's anger, quickly called over the restaurant's security guards. "You guys, throw this person out. Don't let someone like him get close to our restaurant again!"

Seeing the security guards surrounding him aggressively, Ye Chen clenched his fists tightly, veins bulging on his body, and barely suppressed his anger with a shred of reason. "What do you mean by this? I just solved the riddle on the sign. Have you all forgotten?"

The manager was furious. "Do you think that remembering the riddle Tang Ao just solved gives you the right to fool us? Beat him! Beat him up good!"

"You...!!!" Ye Chen felt as if his lungs were about to explode with rage. "Tang Ao!!! It's you again, ruining my plans!!! You managed to solve my riddle, huh? Very well!!! Do you think this will stop me?"

Ye Chen refused to sit idly by. Due to the injuries from yesterday's failed sneak attack on Tang Ao, he had to use a precious secret medicine that he had been reluctant to use for over a decade to escape!

This was a treasure created by the entire Dragon King's Hall, worth billions!

Thanks to the secret medicine, Ye Chen could move freely now, unlike yesterday when he was paralyzed. However, the effect of the medicine was limited, only allowing him to use ten percent of his normal strength.

All these losses were caused by Tang Ao!

However...

Even with only ten percent of his strength remaining, it was not something these security guards could casually bully!

His overwhelming anger was channeled into his fists, which he swung fiercely at the security guards surrounding him. Within the blink of an eye, seven or eight strong security guards fell to the ground like dead fish!

Yet, even with this, Ye Chen was still fuming inside!

This restaurant was originally funded by Ye Chen himself years ago!

Those security guards he just knocked down were essentially working for Ye Chen!

The two managers were essentially his subordinates!

But now, because Tang Ao had solved the riddle first, everyone who should have been on Ye Chen's side was turned against him!

His own employees were now attacking him, the boss!

Such a thing, if spread around, would make people laugh until their jaws dropped!

Unforgivable!

Seeing how formidable Ye Chen was and how fiercely he glared at them, the two managers couldn't help but swallow hard.

"You... what do you want? Don't come any closer!!!"

"Don't worry, I won't trouble you. Later, you'll be begging for my forgiveness on your knees!"

After saying this, Ye Chen swaggered arrogantly and walked through the restaurant's main entrance.

"The Lin family is in big trouble now. A mere bodyguard dared to beat up 'A Box of Ducks' people. The last family that caused such a scene had their entire family kneel at the entrance for three days and three nights to beg for forgiveness!"

"I bet fifty cents that the Lin family will soon come to apologize and then fire this arrogant bodyguard!"

"Who would have thought he was actually quite capable? However, hiring such a simple-minded, muscle-brained bodyguard is just bad luck for the Lin family!"

Hearing the noisy discussions, Ye Chen clenched his hands tightly, his nails nearly digging into his flesh.

He was on the verge of exploding with anger!

If Tang Ao hadn't solved the riddle first, how could there be such discussions in the restaurant now?

All the blame must be placed on Tang Ao!

After Ye Chen entered, the manager hurriedly said, "Call the police, quick, call the police!"

Meanwhile, seeing Lin Ruoxue being warmly welcomed by her old classmates as she entered, Tang Ao couldn't help but feel troubled:

[Oh my god, Zhou Ling'er and Lin Ruoxue really were classmates?]

[It's over, it's over. Here we go. Ye Chen will arrive soon, and today's class reunion scene might make me one of the slapped-in-the-face villains as well.]

[Forget it, no need to overthink it. I better stick to my lovesick character!]

With this in mind, Tang Ao quickly put on a lovestruck face, pretending to be extremely happy, and approached Lin Ruoxue: "Ruoxue, you're here~ Even though you texted me last night to break up, I, Tang Ao, will always love you!!!"

Tang Ao's words instantly silenced the once lively room.

Everyone turned to look at Tang Ao and Lin Ruoxue, their eyes gleaming with interest. Some even grabbed sunflower seeds from the table and started munching eagerly, ready to watch the drama unfold.

Lin Ruoxue got straight to the point: "What's with the video from last night? I want you to explain it to me!"

"Video? Oh, yes, there was a guy causing trouble at the Lin Pharmaceutical Company entrance last night, claiming it was all Tang Ao's doing. Could there be more to it?"

"I don't think Young Master Tang is that kind of person. He has plenty of money. With so much cash to throw around, what kind of girl couldn't he get? Does he really need to use such low tactics?"

Tang Ao stared at Lin Ruoxue, thinking to himself:

[Although I wasn't behind this, I must say, Ye Chen, you did a great job!]

[No wonder you're the main character. Without you, I wouldn't have known how to make Lin Ruoxue initiate a breakup and revert to the unattainable, aloof female CEO I could never win over!]

[Hahaha, this is essential for me to confidently maintain my lovesick persona!]

"Alright, everyone quiet down. I, Tang Ao, have always acted openly and honestly. Everything that guy in the video said yesterday is true!!!" Tang Ao deliberately paused, then loudly continued, "Ruoxue, it's just because I love you so much. Please, be my girlfriend, will you!?"

Seeing Tang Ao almost unable to contain his grin, Lin Ruoxue could barely resist the urge to hit him.

This guy, am I really that disgusting to you?

Infuriating!

Moreover, Tang Ao's words had left everyone in the room utterly stunned.

"Oh my god, is this the legendary shamelessness, being so openly scummy? What do I do? I wish someone like that would pursue me~"

"Indeed, even rich people's farts smell good. Ugh, disgusting!"

"This Tang Ao is truly shameless. Even after his schemes were exposed, how does he have the nerve to keep pursuing Lin Ruoxue? Does he think she's an idiot?"
