After finishing the shrimp dumplings, Wang Chao proceeded to eat some Cantonese-style chicken feet, followed by stir-fried noodles, golden beef tripe, and steamed pork ribs.
He ate with great gusto, and the plates in front of him kept piling up.
While enjoying his meal, he exclaimed, "It's been so long since I've had authentic Cantonese food. It's delicious."
Everyone present, except Lafayette who continued to smile, was dumbfounded, unable to understand what Wang Chao was doing.
Iron King, He Zizai, and Zhou Xiantong stared at Wang Chao with cold and puzzled expressions.
After their previous clash, they knew that Wang Chao was powerful and formidable, and they had prepared themselves for a fierce battle with him.
Now, Wang Chao suddenly started eating like this, catching them off guard.
If someone who didn't know the situation saw him, they would think he was attending a casual gathering.
Zhao Donghe, Zhao Shanhe, and the others were also bewildered.
While Lafayette's invitation to have a late-night meal could be dismissed as mere courtesy, they believed he might be plotting something and trying to kill them.
But Wang Chao, who was supposed to be Lafayette's enemy, actually started eating after hearing Lafayette's words?
And he was enjoying it so much?
Lafayette continued to smile, watching Wang Chao eat, his admiration growing.
"Wang Chao," Shen Bing furrowed her brows slightly and tugged at Wang Chao's sleeve, giving him a meaningful look.
"What's wrong?" Wang Chao asked.
"Mind the occasion," Shen Bing said.
"Don't do this, Wang Chao," Pei Donghu whispered.
"This is the enemy's territory," Song Henian also hurriedly whispered.
Even an ordinary person would know that it is not appropriate to eat in such a serious setting where a fight could break out at any moment.
"Hahaha!"
Wang Chao laughed heartily at their reactions and said, "Don't be so tense. Negotiations are negotiations, eating is eating, and the enemy is the enemy."
"These three things are separate and have no influence on each other."
"After all the hustle and bustle, of course, we should eat first. We can fight when it's time to fight."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Don't lose your spirit just because of the enemy's smiles and a few words!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Donghe, Zhao Shanhe, Zhao Changsheng, Dongfang Wang, and Xia Houming all brightened up, emanating a daunting aura.
"Hahaha, well said, I'll eat too."
"Mr. Wang truly deserves the title of divine doctor. Impressive! We'll eat as well!"
Zhao Changsheng laughed heartily and started eating.
Dongfang Wang, Hao Feng, and others also suddenly realized and sat down, enjoying their meal.
At this moment, the momentum of all the people on their side surged again, and their gazes became resolute and determined.
Seeing this scene, Lafayette's eyes sparkled with intense radiance.
However, this glimmer of radiance disappeared in an instant, unnoticed by anyone.
He poured himself a cup of tea, drinking it while keeping his gaze fixed on Wang Chao. His eyes showed admiration but also flashed with a hint of chilling hostility.
Seize the opportunity, strike repeatedly, and strike again when the opponent is exhausted.
This was his strategy against the Zhao Family!
First, he set up a kilometer-long formation outside the Drunken Immortal Tower, then deployed the Black Dragon Guards on the first floor and various staircases to give the Zhao Family a strong warning and crush their confidence and determination to win.
The
moment the door opened, he displayed his imposing presence, intimidating all the members of the Zhao Family and giving them a show of force, once again suppressing their momentum and confidence.
Then, he withdrew his overwhelming presence, smiled and invited them to eat, making it impossible for them to muster any resistance or opposition.
In doing so, he could completely weaken the Zhao Donghe and his allies' momentum, reducing it to its weakest point and creating favorable conditions for the upcoming negotiations.
The performance of everyone on the Zhao Family's side was exactly as he had anticipated.
However, there was one person who remained unaffected by all this—Wang Chao!
And Wang Chao disregarded all of Lafayette's arrangements, indulging in the feast and accurately stating the essence of today's matter!
Eating is eating, the enemy is the enemy, and negotiations are negotiations!
Zhao Donghe and the others were smart enough to see through Lafayette's sinister intentions on the spot, and their momentum was restored.
Since they were going to fight anyway, they might as well eat first and fight with full stomachs.
"Lafayette~" Iron King murmured.
"It's fine, let's eat too," Lafayette said calmly.
After speaking, he also started eating.
Unlike Wang Chao, who was enjoying the food to the fullest, Lafayette's food leaned towards light flavors.
Iron King, Zhou Xiantong, and He Zizai looked at each other but quickly understood and began eating as well.
Only when they're full would they have the energy to face whatever was to come, whether it be negotiation or battle.
Everyone on the scene was eating!
Except for Cui Hong, who looked at the table full of dishes, unsure of whether to eat or not.
Lafayette, with a benevolent expression, called Cui Hong over and asked him to sit beside him, smiling, "Don't think too much, let's eat first."
After saying that, he picked up a steak and placed it in front of Cui Hong on a plate.
"Lafayette, have you forgiven me?" Cui Hong looked at Lafayette, his eyes filled with gratitude.
He had done so many things to betray Lafayette and even embezzled his assets. Now, in front of so many people, Lafayette had him sit beside him and kindly offered him food. This meant that Lafayette was no longer holding a grudge against him.
At this moment, he remembered what Iron King had told him, and he became even more convinced that Lafayette wanted to protect him during these negotiations.
"This is Kobe beef brought back from Tianying Country, it's delicious, don't waste it, eat," Lafayette said calmly.
"Thank you, Lafayette. I will repay you by working tirelessly for you in the future."
Cui Hong's eyes welled up with tears as he followed Lafayette's wishes, picking up the cutlery placed on the table and starting to eat.
He ate while crying.
It was a cry of gratitude, but also a cry of stimulation and joy.
The fact that the Zhao Family and Wang Chao had sent so many people to deal with him had terrified him to the core, thinking that he might end up dead and forgotten.
But Lafayette treating him like this meant that Lafayette was definitely protecting him!
How could he not be excited upon receiving such important news?
When Zhao Donghe, Zhao Shanhe, Shen Bing, and others saw this scene, their expressions immediately turned solemn.
Especially Zhao Donghe, his heart sank even deeper.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLafayette's actions clearly indicated that he was protecting Cui Hong!
Thinking of this, Zhao Donghe looked at Wang Chao again, his gaze becoming serious.
Knowing Wang Chao well, he knew that Wang Chao would never give up easily.
In other words, there would definitely be a major fight today!
Bang!
Just when everyone thought Lafayette was going to protect Cui Hong, suddenly, Lafayette grabbed Cui Hong's head and slammed it fiercely onto the table.
The tremendous force caused Cui Hong's head to split open and blood to flow.
The plate in front of Cui Hong was also shattered.
Cui Hong, in pain, held onto the table, trying to get up.
At this moment, Lafayette picked up a knife from the table and, with a "pu" sound, pierced one of Cui Hong's palms, pinning it to the table.
Then, Lafayette drew
the fight knife from Zhou Xiantong's back, raised his hand, and severed one of Cui Hong's ears before cutting off his other arm at the shoulder.
Blood sprayed, splattering all over the table full of food.
Everything happened so quickly and unimaginably. In the blink of an eye, Lafayette had severed Cui Hong's arms and returned the knife to Zhou Xiantong's scabbard.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
At this moment, Cui Hong's screams, resembling the screams of a pig being slaughtered, suddenly resounded.
Zhao Donghe, Zhao Shanhe, and others were still eating, completely taken aback by Lafayette's sudden action, their expressions frozen in shock.
The whole scene fell silent!
Everyone was shocked.
Moments ago, Lafayette seemed like he was going to protect Cui Hong, but now he had suddenly severed Cui Hong's arms, leaving them all unable to react.
Wang Chao also stopped eating and looked at Lafayette.
Song Henian, Pei Donghu, and Lan Ruyu were so scared that they covered their mouths, their eyes wide open, filled with unimaginable horror, unable to utter a word.
Shen Bing and Zhang Long frowned.
At this moment, Lafayette seemed to have done something miraculous in an ordinary manner.
He elegantly wiped his mouth and revealed a smile like Maitreya Buddha, looking at Wang Chao with a smiling face, "Mr. Wang, are you satisfied now?"
At this moment, his smile was as terrifying as a demon, extremely intimidating.
