Chapter 426: Chapter 426

Even Cao An and the entire Cao Family had been dealt with thoroughly by Xu Hao, so what sort of airs was Cao An's distant relative putting on here!

The two women didn't look down on others, but Qi Heng's attitude, acting as if everyone should curry favor with him because he was Cao An's relative, was truly annoying.

Qi Heng, noticing a change in the two women's gazes, didn't think much of it, believing that they were admiring him, and he continued to explain the campus environment as usual.

Anna's residence was in the women's dormitory. Although Anna was an international student, Huadu University didn't pander to foreigners like some other schools in Huaya, separating international and domestic students. Instead, they all lived together.

Even though it was a women's dormitory, men were not allowed to enter on regular days, but today was the opening day of the school, a special occasion, so men were temporarily allowed to accompany their children upstairs.

However, Qi Heng and his companion were stopped by Xu Hao from entering.

Qi Heng glared at Xu Hao resentfully. He didn't say anything, but his grudge deepened in his heart.

After Jiang Xuezhun had finished arranging Anna's bedding, the three of them walked out together.

Qi Heng immediately said, "Ladies, it's almost noon. How about we have lunch together?"

"I'll listen to Brother Hao," Anna said, looking like an obedient child.

Xu Hao glanced at Jiang Xuezhun, who had a smile at the corner of her mouth and said, "Okay, let's have a meal together. I'll treat you, to thank you two seniors for your help this morning."

Qi Heng quickly waved his hand and said, "How can I let a beauty pay? Don't worry, I've got this. There's a Wei's Restaurant nearby our campus, run by one of the Seven Small Families, the Wei family. It's the most elegant and high-class restaurant around!" Visit My Virtual Library Empire (*) for more.

As he spoke, his eyes turned toward Xu Hao, who was quiet and unassuming. The disdain in his gaze was thick, thinking, "What does it matter that you have two beautiful girls with you? Without your own capabilities, aren't you still just bringing them to me on a plate?"

Jiang Xuezhun, who studied criminal investigation, immediately understood Qi Heng's mindset and scoffed in her heart. Daring to belittle my husband? If I don't make you spit blood at lunch today, my surname isn't Jiang!

With this thought, Jiang Xuezhun quickly said, "Since the senior is so enthusiastic, we would be disrespectful to refuse. However, we are big eaters, so I hope you won't mind."

Qi Heng didn't realize that just because of his contemptuous glance, Jiang Xuezhun held a grudge against him. Seeing Jiang Xuezhun agree, he immediately said, "No problem at all! I might lack other things, but not money. With me, you'll eat and drink the best every day."

Anna was unmoved. Even when her wallet was stolen due to looking for Xu Hao and she had no money at all, she didn't go hungry. So, she certainly wasn't going to be impressed by the food at a restaurant.

But Wang Wei, who was standing nearby, was obviously interested. Wei's Restaurant was the most luxurious one in the vicinity. He understood Qi Heng's plan—to get the girls drunk at the restaurant, then take care of business in a room booked nearby, and afterwards take some videos or photos as leverage over them. It was an old trick they had used before, and they were well-experienced, maintaining an unspoken understanding.

Jiang Xuezhun chuckled, causing Qi Heng and Wang Wei to stare at her, bewildered.

Qi Heng cleared his throat and said with a smile, "Then let's all go to Wei's Restaurant."

When they arrived at Wei's Restaurant, they found that the place was indeed well-decorated. The restaurant was not big, but it was exquisite and filled with contemporary flair, which young people liked the most.

Qi Heng led them into the hotel and said nonchalantly, "Give us a private room."

The receptionist apologetically said, "I'm sorry, sir, our private rooms have been fully booked two days ago, and we don't have any available at the moment."

"No... No more available?"

Qi Heng was taken aback, then immediately said, "Call your manager out for me. I'm Qi Heng, he knows me. I don't believe such a big restaurant has no private rooms left!"

In the lobby, there were many others who, hearing there were no private rooms, reluctantly went to the dining halls on different floors. Some of the older students who knew Qi Heng stopped to watch as he called for the manager.

Qi Heng usually had a high profile in school. After all, he had a distant Cao Family connection, and even some other family descendants didn't want to clash with him.

Soon, the restaurant manager came out slowly. Seeing Qi Heng, he said right away, "Young Master Qi, I have to tell you, today's the beginning of the school term, so it's very busy. All our private rooms were booked two days ago, and we really don't have any left. Maybe you and your party could dine in the dining hall instead?"

"Go to the dining hall?"

Qi Heng burst out angrily, "Do I, Qi Heng, look like someone who would eat in a noisy and low-class environment like the dining hall? The people who eat in the dining hall are those poor sods!"

This comment made many feel uncomfortable. By what right was he looking down on people eating in the dining hall? Just because his family had some dirty money!
