"Do the nearby restaurants sell this too?"

Qin Yang furrowed his brow.

"Yeah, this Immortal Orange Wine is quite famous. Some customers will buy a bottle just because of its name to try it, and it sells quite well."

The middle-aged female owner said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Qin Yang's expression darkened slightly. Hmph, counterfeit alcohol really is rampant, and on quite a scale too.

With Huaxia's large population, some people have abandoned basic human decency, and fake products are prevalent in various industries. It's shocking that these fake Immortal Orange Wines have become so widespread so quickly, openly on sale.

He doesn't care about counterfeiting in other industries, but these counterfeit products affecting him are asking for trouble. With Qin Yang's personality, he won't tolerate these things.

Furthermore, besides its fragrant and pure taste, his Immortal Orange Wine is beneficial to health. These fake wines contain other high-alcohol substances, destroying the medicinal properties of the ingredients. Aside from retaining a faint fragrance of Immortal Orange Wine, they are of no health benefit.

"If there's nothing else, I'll get back to work."

The middle-aged female owner said.

"Yeah, go ahead."

Qin Yang nodded. The female owner is just selling fake wine. Qin Yang's target is not them but those who manufacture the fake wine, cutting off the source completely.

"Qin Yang, what's up?"

Lin Dongling noticed Qin Yang's slightly unusual expression and asked.

"Nothing, let's eat."

Qin Yang shook his head, smiled, and said. The counterfeit Immortal Orange Wine issue can be discussed later. For now, let's not ruin everyone's dining mood.

"Alright, let's eat. The aroma is making us hungry."

Yang Shirui said.

At this moment, the group started picking up their chopsticks to eat the fish. There were a total of eight flavors, and each fish weighed over two pounds, certainly enough to leave everyone full.

"Smells so good, this one with fragrant sauce..."

"This spicy lychee flavor is not bad either..."

"..."

The taste at this grilled fish restaurant was quite good. The girls were enjoying their meal, accompanied by some occasional comments from the guys, creating a joyful atmosphere at the table.

Just ten minutes into their meal, seven or eight burly figures entered the restaurant.

The man in the center wore a floral shirt with an open collar, revealing a fierce snakehead tattoo, coupled with his menacing aura, drawing quite a bit of attention from the diners.

"Damn, are these guys gangsters?"

The fat guy's expression changed slightly, exclaiming in surprise.

At the cashier, the middle-aged female owner, who was calculating yesterday's earnings, turned pale at the sight of the seven or eight figures.

"Brother Flowersnake, why are you here? This month's payment has already been..."

The middle-aged female owner hurried over, speaking in a low voice.

Flowersnake was the local tyrant of those streets. To keep her restaurant running here, she had to deal with him, paying a so-called "courtesy fee" each month. Fortunately, it's only ten thousand a month, and her busy restaurant could manage.

However, Flowersnake and his crew generally collect payments outside dining hours. They know that appearing during these times affects the restaurant's business and indirectly affects the protection money. So, the fact that they're showing up at lunchtime is rather surprising to the female owner.

"Can't we come here for a meal?"

Before Flowersnake could speak, a sleek, long-haired man behind him coldly rebuked.

"Eating? Of course, welcome!"

The middle-aged female owner's face immediately filled with smiles as she spoke.

She could afford a meal, and she wasn't expecting Flowersnake and his group to pay. As long as they weren't here to cause trouble and drive away customers, she'd be fine with it.

"Brother Flowersnake, there's a private room on the second floor. Let me take you there..."

The middle-aged female owner said. Just a few minutes ago, some guests had finished eating, freeing up a room.

"No need, we'll sit in the hall."

Flowersnake glanced around and then noticed Qin Yang and his group seated in the hall. He said flatly, stopping at a ten-person table a partition away from Qin Yang and his group.

At once, Flowersnake and his men made their way toward Qin Yang and his group's direction.

"They're walking toward us."

Pei Tong furrowed his brow and whispered to the group.

"Let's just focus on our meal and ignore them."

Qin Yang glanced at Flowersnake and his group and said. Such small-time thugs didn't concern Qin Yang.

"Yes, Qin Yang is right. Let's continue eating and not provoke them."

Yao Qi, with her bold personality, said, trying to stay composed.

However, often things don't go as one wishes.

"Brother Snake, there are quite a few beauties at this table."

As they passed by Qin Yang's table, the slick long-haired man's gaze swept across their table and he immediately remarked.

"Tsk tsk, they sure are pretty."

"Brother Snake, should we ask these four girls to keep you company for dinner?"

"..."

The men following behind Flowersnake immediately started teasing with laughter.

Hearing this, the fat guy, Yao Qi, and the others' expressions turned unpleasant.

Noticing all eyes focused on their table, the shy Xia Yue's face turned pale. She lowered her head, sipping her drink too quickly, almost choking.

Lin Dongling, beside her, quickly patted Xia Yue's back gently.

"Little girl, don't worry, Brother Snake won't eat you."

The long-haired man chuckled, then took the cup of orange juice from Xia Yue's table, removed the straw, flicked it aside, and drank the half-cup of juice in one gulp.

"Tsk tsk, orange juice tasted by a beauty, really splendid."

The long-haired man smacked his lips, saying.

Provocation!

These guys were clearly out to provoke them!

Seeing the long-haired man's actions, anger surged on the faces of the fat guy, Pei Tong, Lu Dongshan, and others. Xia Yue's face turned even paler, while Yang Shirui and Yao Qi's expressions became rather unsightly.

"Hey fatty, what are you staring at?"

The long-haired man noticed Tao Letian looking at him and sneered coldly.

Upon hearing this, Tao Letian's face reddened slightly, but he knew, although his family was somewhat wealthy, they couldn't afford to offend these local tyrants. Confronting them would only result in their own loss, especially with the girls present at the table.

"Brother Snake, Brother Longhair, they're students from Jiang University, you've come here..."

The middle-aged female owner spoke up promptly. If anything happened to Jiang University students in her restaurant, how would others dare to visit her restaurant in the future?

"So what if they are students from Jiang University? Hey fatty, I'm talking to you. What were you staring at just now?"

The long-haired man clearly wasn't buying the female owner's words, glaring at Tao Letian and speaking coldly and harshly.
