"What do you mean by that? Our Mr. Tao Junchen is quite a prominent figure, and today is an important day in his life!"
"Do you think Mr. Tao Junchen can't afford it? I'd like one of each dish, one for each person!"
Su Ming said, glancing at Tao Junchen, whose mouth twitched uncontrollably, wishing he could swallow Su Ming alive on the spot.
Su Ming's words practically exalted Tao Junchen to the heavens.
Tao Junchen was put on the spot, and under the waitress's attentive eyes, he barely managed to muster a wry smile.
"That's right, do as this gentleman says..."
Tao Junchen said with a faint smile, and the waitress quickly nodded in agreement.
Chen Hong couldn't help but chuckle when she saw this. She hadn't expected Su Ming to be so mischievous, clearly trying to drive Tao Junchen insane.
But this just suited Chen Hong's plans, as she originally wanted to make Tao Junchen retreat in the face of difficulties.
This way, she would have a better explanation to give her parents.
Su Ming obviously understood this too, so he sat calmly in his seat, enjoying the show.
The atmosphere at the dining table gradually became awkward.
Su Ming and Chen Hong were enjoying the food, intimately and affectionately.
While Tao Junchen, with an ugly expression, watched the couple in front of him as their intimate voices pushed him to the edge of eruption.
"Chen Hong, enough! Why did you bring this man today?"
"Today is the day you and I were supposed to get engaged, are you deliberately trying to provoke me?"
Tao Junchen finally couldn't maintain his gentlemanly image, roaring in rage.
"Tao Junchen, I've told you before, I'm not interested in you!"
"You're the one who's been persistently clinging to me! If it weren't for my parents forcing me today, why would I be sitting here?"
Chen Hong, tired of pretending, stood up directly holding Su Ming's hand.
"To be honest with you, he's my boyfriend, and I've already made a lifelong commitment to him! I urge you to abandon your unrealistic fantasies!"
Chen Hong said with a serious face, wanting Tao Junchen to completely abandon any thoughts of being with her.
Otherwise, this guy would keep pestering her and pestering her parents as well.
That was something Chen Hong couldn't accept!
"You, you're Chen Hong's boyfriend? What makes you think you deserve her?"
Upon hearing Chen Hong's words, Tao Junchen laughed angrily, staring hard at Su Ming.
He couldn't believe that a woman like Chen Hong would fall for such a young boy!
"Who am I? I'm Chen Hong's boyfriend, her future husband! Do you have a problem with that?"
Su Ming said, wrapping an arm around Chen Hong's soft waist.
Feeling Su Ming's large hand, Chen Hong's face flushed slightly, but she couldn't resist in front of Tao Junchen without giving him hints.
She only felt Su Ming's hand, burning hot, transmitting through her clothes, making her entire body tremble.
Chen Hong cursed inwardly; she had asked Su Ming for help.
This guy went too far, and she ended up getting taken advantage of.
But thinking about how this display could convince Tao Junchen, Chen Hong didn't stop Su Ming's fiery hand.
The moment Su Ming's words ended, the entire restaurant fell silent.
Seeing the couple's intimate demeanor, Tao Junchen's eyes turned red, his fists clenched, emitting a piercing chill.
Seeing Tao Junchen so agitated, Su Ming and Chen Hong both had a slight smile on their faces, feeling quite pleased.
However, after such a fuss, it might be inconvenient to meet privately in the future.
"Chen Hong, could you stop fooling around? This is your parents' wish, and it concerns the relationship between our two families. Can't you at least do me this favor?"
"Your parents are waiting, you wouldn't want to disappoint our families, would you?"
Tao Junchen suppressed his inner anger, trying to force a smile and persuade Chen Hong.
But Chen Hong had already made up her mind, and there was no way she would be persuaded.
"Tao Junchen, you're so outstanding, I'm sure many more excellent girls will like you in the future, why must you insist on marrying me?"
Chen Hong tried to persuade Tao Junchen with well-intentioned words.
Seeing Chen Hong and Su Ming's closeness, Tao Junchen, overwhelmed with anger, slammed the table sharply.
"I've pursued you for years, and both families have agreed! Now you're saying you want to back out? You treacherous woman, you've betrayed me, you must be mine!"
Tao Junchen said with a sullen face, glaring malevolently at Chen Hong as if he wanted to devour her.
"Tao Junchen, who are you calling treacherous! We have nothing to do with each other, when did I ever betray you? Don't talk nonsense!"
Chen Hong, equally angry and ashamed, questioned furiously.
Tao Junchen snorted coldly at her words.
"How dare you say that? You've already agreed to your parents, and now you're backing out with no explanation! Now you've brought another man into this, do you think I'm a fool? Do you really think I won't lose my temper?"
Tao Junchen ground his teeth, glaring at Chen Hong with an intensity that seemed like he would eat her alive.
Chen Hong was startled, not expecting Tao Junchen to truly dare to make a move on her!
"Tao Junchen, you dare!"
Chen Hong was momentarily panicked, but soon regained her composure.
"Let's see if you dare or not!"
Chen Hong retorted defiantly.
Watching this unfold, Su Ming's lips curled into a smile. Chen Hong was no simple woman.
This Tao Junchen was too arrogant and domineering, something that irritated Chen Hong greatly.
She despised the way Tao Junchen always put on airs, resembling a spoiled rich kid regardless of the situation!
Such people were pitiful, and Chen Hong never liked them, which was why she was adamant about not getting involved.
"Alright, since everything's been said, let's go."
Su Ming said, preparing to leave with Chen Hong.
But at this moment, several attendants stepped forward, blocking their way.
It was clear they were Tao Junchen's people.
Tao Junchen had made thorough preparations for today's proposal and couldn't afford to fail!
"You despicable woman! Mr. Tao considers you worthy, and you're so bold to disdain him, don't you know death when it's staring at you?"
The waiter, seeing Chen Hong treating Tao Junchen this way, couldn't help but rage.
This woman was disgraceful, Mr. Tao showed interest, and it was her fortune!
Yet she dared to reject him, utterly ignorant of her impending doom!
"Silence!"
Tao Junchen snapped, already in a foul mood made worse by the disruption caused by Chen Hong.
Yet he also understood that Chen Hong was simply trying to provoke him.
At this moment, Tao Junchen pulled out an intricately designed box from his pocket, which anyone could see what it contained.
