Chapter 749 The Wedding X
Hou Yingyi was frightened by Goo Shengli’s words before. So when Goo Shengli asked him this question, his mind was completely muddled and he actually nodded his head. “Yes, yes.”Goo Shengli applauded. “You see, Brother Hou has already admitted, so hurry up and pay me back the money.”
Hou Shihong glared at Goo Shengli sharply. He really wanted to slap him twice!
Thirty million for a bottle of wine?
That was a damn robbery!
”Goo Shengli.” Hou Shihong restrained his anger and spoke politely to him. “You said the liquor was worth so much money, but how do we know it’s worth that much? You cannot just say whatever you want without having proof, can you?”
Goo Shengli frowned. “Mr. Hou, are you saying that I am a liar? Do you think with my identity now, I’m going to rob you?”
Then he laughed sarcastically, “What a joke! I, Goo Shengli, have plenty of money, so I don’t need your thirty million! If you don’t believe that the wine is not worth that much money, then you can ask the guests here. I am sure there’s someone who’s heard of this wine.”
The moment Goo Shengli finished, Han Yuanjun nodded his head and whispered to Liang Zixuan.
The person next to him heard it and immediately replied, “That’s right, I have heard of this Barolo wine before.”
”Hey, I suddenly remembered that something like this happened. This wine is really sold at a high price at the auction!”
Goo Shengli proudly raised his eyebrow and looked at Hou Shihong. “Did you hear that, Mr. Hou?”
Hou Shihong looked at the people who had started the commotion silently. They were the people he had met at the business banquet before. His face stiffened for a moment and soon returned to its previous color. “I believe there is this wine, but is the wine you brought last night really Barolo?”
”That’s easy to prove!” Goo Shengli pointed at Hou Yingyi and said, “Brother Hou, is the wine bottle still in the room? Can you please ask someone to find it and bring it here?”
The wine bottle?
Only now did Hou Yingyi remember. What a wine bottle!
He played too much last night and accidentally broke the wine bottle.
Seeing Hou Shihong looking at him, Hou Yingyi’s head hung low and he didn’t dare look into Hou Shihong’s eyes.
Seeing Hou Yingyi’s actions, Hou Shihong’s body was immediately filled with anger, but there were so many people at the scene, so it wasn’t good for him to flare up.
Moreover, Goo Shengli had issued an IOU with black and white words on it in front of these people.
Hou Shihong took a deep breath and looked at the IOU in Hou Zexian’s hand. He felt like tearing the paper into pieces.
”Mr. Hou… Mr. Hou!” Goo Shengli shouted at Hou Shihong, who was gasping for air. “My money, please give it to me now.”
Hou Shihong turned around, looked at the guests sitting below, and sighed heavily. With a face as black as the bottom of a pot, he said, “Zexian, go and transfer thirty million of the money in the company account to Goo Shengli.”
After saying this, Hou Shihong felt a sharp pain and his whole body was in a bad state.
Goo Shengli behaved like a good boy after receiving the money. He patted Hou Yingyi on the shoulder and said with a smile, “Brother Hou, your family is really good! You’re all very generous. Let’s have another drink together in the future.”
Hou Yingyi’s body trembled and he almost fell to the ground.
He’d lost thirty million after drinking with Goo Shengli last night, so how could he dare to drink with him again?
This wine was too expensive!
It was more expensive than drinking blood!
Goo Shengli grinned and followed Hou Zexian to take the money.
Qin Yu immediately whispered to Liang Zixuan. “Auntie, how is it? This gift must’ve surprised Wei Xiaoqing, right?”
Liang Zixuan was about to say something when she suddenly saw Wei Xiaoqing’s envious eyes on her. She shrugged. “She doesn’t look like she’s surprised. She’s not happy at all.”
Qin Yu tsked. “It would be strange if she is happy. Thirty million. The Hou Family just gave Goo Shengli the money like that, but they were too stingy to spend the money on her wedding. This is equivalent to not giving her a face. In front of everyone’s eyes, she can only admit defeat.”
Liang Jiahao raised his hand and ruffled Qin Yu’s hair. “Are you done with your gift?”
Qin Yu nodded. “Done. What did you give them?”
”Liang Zixuan!”
Qin Yu had barely finished her sentence when Wei Xiaoqing’s angry voice came from beside them. “Tell me, did you do it? Did you ask Goo Shengli to set a trap for Yingyi?”
”A trap?” Liang Zixuan frowned, looking a bit impatient. “Wei Xiaoqing, you can eat whatever you want, but you cannot say whatever you want! What trap? Since Goo Shengli has good evidence, it’s only fair for Hou Yingyi to pay for it. Since Hou Yingyi is so passionate about playing around, then he must have the capital to do so.”
”Exactly!” Qin Yu helped Liang Zixuan add fuel to the fire. “Did Goo Shengli put a knife to Hou Yingyi’s neck, forcing him to drink the wine, forcing him to sign an IOU? When you play, you play so much, and when you are done, you don’t want to admit it? There is no such excuse in this world!”
Wei Xiaoqing’s face turned red and white when she heard Liang Zixuan and Qin Yu’s words. Of course she knew that they were plotting together against Hou Yingyi, but she could not produce any evidence!
Wei Xiaoqing still wanted to argue with Liang Zixuan and Qin Yu, but Hou Yingyi approached her with a dark expression. “Xiaoqing.”
He reached out to restrain Wei Xiaoqing. “Forget it, I have admitted it. There are so many people watching, stop making a ruckus. Your face doesn’t look good in their eyes!”
