Going Bankrupt

The server maintained a professional smile and said, "Young Master Song, the dishes you ordered are all our restaurant's signature dishes. Here is the order, please take a look."

Song Haoning took the order from the server, and his face immediately turned pale. Looking at the first dish, it cost 3888. Not only that, but he ordered five portions of dishes that cost several thousand yuan each?!

What confused Song Haoning even more was when he ordered a bottle of wine for thirty thousand yuan?!

Adding other expenses, large and small, the total actually reached over sixty thousand!

Song Haoning looked at the server and said in a deep voice, "I didn't order this wine."

The server still smiled, "Didn't you ask your friend to order this wine for you?"

Song Haoning's face instantly froze. He remembered shouting something when Mu Changsheng was leaving.

But Song Haoning never imagined that this country bumpkin would order a bottle of wine worth thirty thousand yuan!!!

The most crucial part was that he hadn't even had a few sips.

And this table full of food, he hadn't even tasted any of it!

Xu Wen looked at Song Haoning with some confusion and asked curiously, "Why aren't you paying?"

Song Haoning's face was pale at the moment. Pay? Where would he steal seventy thousand yuan from?

Song Haoning took out his phone and looked at the balances on his two cards, which added up to just over thirty thousand.

It was still a long way from sixty-seven thousand.

"Young Master Song, please settle the bill."

The server said with a smile.

Song Haoning's back was already drenched in sweat. He awkwardly stood up and said, "Wait a moment, I need to make a phone call."

Xu Wen looked at Song Haoning with some confusion. Jiang Ruizhao's heart skipped a beat. He realized then that a meal costing over seventy thousand yuan, even though Song Haoning's family was wealthy – his father had gifted him a BMW 5 Series when he got into university.

But Jiang Ruizhao knew that Song Haoning's monthly allowance was only a little over five thousand.

Moreover, Song Haoning's usual expenses were extremely high, and he spent money lavishly, never holding onto much.

It was over. If Song Haoning couldn't borrow the money, and they had to split it equally, each of the twelve people would have to pay several thousand yuan!

Thinking of this, Jiang Ruizhao's face turned a little pale.

Their monthly living expenses were only 1500, and some were even less. They couldn't afford this kind of expense.

However, fortunately, Song Haoning quickly finished his call and then paid the money with a hesitant expression.

The server smiled slightly, "All set."

Song Haoning's lips were pale. For sixty-seven thousand, he had borrowed over thirty thousand from friends.

One meal had made him destitute!!!

"Brother Song is so generous, treating us to a seventy-thousand-yuan meal without batting an eye!"

"Without Brother Song, we probably wouldn't even have the chance to eat here."

Jiang Ruizhao immediately started flattering him.

Wang Xing and Du Yaming exchanged glances. Seeing Song Haoning's somewhat off-color face, Wang Xing curiously asked, "Brother Song, what's wrong? Your face is so pale?"

Song Haoning's expression was strange. He clenched his fists tightly, a forced, awkward smile on his face, "N-no... nothing!"

At this moment, Song Haoning had already mentally dismembered Mu Changsheng a thousand times!!!

Damn bastard, how dare he set me up?!

After the gathering ended, everyone took taxis to leave. In the Tianhongmen parking lot, Inside the black BMW 5 Series, Xu Wen was reapplying her makeup and said casually, "You're really generous, offering to pay for a seventy-thousand-yuan meal so readily. But you always refuse when I ask for things I like."

Song Haoning gripped the steering wheel tightly and said darkly, "Can't you tell I was ripped off?!"

Xu Wen frowned, "Ripped off?"

"Didn't you tell them to order whatever they wanted?"

If you can't find the book by searching the title, you can try searching for the author, maybe the name has changed!

Song Haoning's voice choked, and his face looked ugly, "That scoundrel Mu Changsheng ordered a bottle of wine worth thirty thousand yuan."

Xu Wen raised an eyebrow, "Oh, that wine? It was quite good. Didn't you ask him to order the expensive one?"

Song Haoning's mouth twitched fiercely. I asked him to order a good one, but I didn't say the best one!

A country bumpkin actually dared to order wine worth over thirty thousand yuan!!!

"By the way, when are you going to buy me that Gucci bag!"

"I've been waiting for several weeks!"

Xu Wen looked at Song Haoning with a hint of dissatisfaction.

Song Haoning's face turned cold. Suppressed by his frustration, his emotions instantly erupted. He turned his head and said sinisterly, "Buy, buy, buy! All you know is how to buy. Is that bag absolutely essential?!"

Xu Wen was startled by Song Haoning's loud outburst, then reacted, her expression turning as cold as frost, "Heh, you were the one who said it back then, and now it's my problem."

"Looks like you're no different from other guys, just good at making empty promises."

Xu Wen unbuckled her seatbelt, tidied herself up, and got out of the BMW with a "bang."

The loud slam of the car door jolted Song Haoning awake. He hit the steering wheel in frustration, cursing.

A moment later, Song Haoning quickly grabbed his phone and sent Xu Wen a message.

Meanwhile, Mu Changsheng was leisurely delivering food. While he couldn't imagine how bad Song Haoning's expression was, he was sure it was spectacular.

Mu Changsheng suddenly saw a woman in high heels ahead. Recognizing her clothes, he frowned, "Isn't that Xu Wen?"

"Heh… this world really is small."

At this moment, Xu Wen stood by the roadside, her pretty face frosty. Seeing Song Haoning's messages flooding in, she couldn't be bothered to reply.

What made Xu Wen even more annoyed was that she still hadn't managed to get a taxi after such a long time.

She was truly exasperated.

"Well, well, if it isn't our beautiful lady?"

Mu Changsheng stopped in front of Xu Wen, a slight smile on his face.

Xu Wen was taken aback when she saw Mu Changsheng. Then, she noticed his white electric scooter and thought it looked quite nice.

Xu Wen asked curiously, "Did you get a new scooter?"

Mu Changsheng nodded, "Made a bit of money, so I got a new one."

"By the way, why are you here? This shop… shouldn't you have already returned to school?"

Xu Wen's expression was a little awkward as she tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, "He had something to attend to, so I'm coming back by myself."

"Oh…"

Mu Changsheng glanced at his phone, noticing it was almost eleven o'clock. "Alright then, I'm leaving. The school will be closing soon."

Xu Wen's expression froze. She looked at her phone and realized it was indeed almost eleven.

Xu Wen certainly wasn't going to swallow her pride and ask Song Haoning for help.

But for some reason, she couldn't get a taxi at all right now.

Feeling a bit embarrassed, Xu Wen stepped forward, her cheeks flushing, "Wait…"

Mu Changsheng looked at her, puzzled, "What is it?"

Then, seeing the phone in Xu Wen's hand, the corner of his mouth curved into a slight smile. "I don't know what happened on that road, but it's severely jammed. It's normal that you can't get a taxi."

"What, need a ride back?"

Hearing Mu Changsheng's blunt offer, Xu Wen's face grew quite awkward.

"This scooter isn't like a four-wheeler; it doesn't block the wind. Maybe you should wait a bit longer."
