Chapter 261 Report on the Spot
Upon hearing this, Yu Wan's face instantly darkened, her eyes filled with disgust.
It's obvious that Prince Yong is deliberately making things difficult for her. She really doesn't want to cause trouble on her grand opening day.
But this Prince Yong is really taking advantage of my kindness!
Yun Shang's expression grew increasingly grim, and he exuded a chilling aura.
He was about to refuse when Yu Wan gently pressed his hand down and shook her head slightly, signaling him to calm down.
The Prince of Yong has ill intentions. If we rashly refuse, we don't know what he might do.
Yu Wan took a deep breath, and a ferocious smile reappeared on her face.
"I go!"
"I want to see what tricks he's up to!"
Yun Shang said, "Yu Wan..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Yu Wan gave Yun Shang a reassuring look.
"Today is the opening day of my hot pot restaurant, and I don't want him to ruin it."
"Don't worry, I'll be careful."
She definitely wouldn't let herself suffer a loss.
Yun Shang's eyes were filled with complex emotions. After a moment of silence, he finally nodded: "I'll keep watch outside. You must be careful. If he does anything inappropriate, I'll go in immediately."
Yu Wan nodded in agreement.
Upon reaching the private room, Yu Wan paused, straightened her clothes, and then gently pushed open the door and went inside.
Prince Yong was sitting at the table, holding a cup of wine in his hand. When he saw Yu Wan enter, a meaningful smile immediately appeared on his face.
"Madam Yun, you've finally arrived."
Yu Wanfu bowed, his tone neither humble nor arrogant: "Your Highness is too kind. I wonder if this pot suits Your Highness's taste?"
Prince Yong glanced at the bubbling pot of red oil, a smile appearing on his face. "It looks and smells delicious, the taste is indeed very good, but..."
"It would be a waste for me to eat all this delicious food by myself. That's why I'm inviting Lady Yun to join me."
Prince Yong was not bad-looking; his eyes were light amber in color and looked clear and clean.
But Yu Wan felt an instinctive sense of wariness and annoyance when facing Prince Yong.
She wore a forced smile and kept a certain distance from Prince Yong, saying, "Your Highness is of noble status; how can I dine with you?"
Prince Yong smiled dismissively and gently patted the chair beside him. "Madam Yun, there's no need to be so formal."
"Where there is delicious food, there must be beautiful women to accompany it. Today, I wish to enjoy this feast with you. Lady Yun's beauty complements this delicious food perfectly, isn't that wonderful?"
Yu Wan felt nauseous and almost vomited on the spot.
Indeed, greasiness doesn't discriminate based on appearance.
Even though Prince Yong wasn't ugly, his greasy appearance was still undeniable.
Prince Yong poured himself a cup of wine, then suddenly stood up and slowly approached Yu Wan.
Yu Wan immediately became alert.
Prince Yong's gaze roamed over Yu Wan with an unsettling aggressiveness, as if he wanted to see through every inch of her skin.
He handed the wine cup to Yu Wan, "Madam Yun, come, have a drink with me."
Yu Wan suppressed her nausea and maintained a smile. "Your Highness, I am not good at drinking and I'm afraid I might spoil your enjoyment. If Your Highness has any requests regarding the dishes, I will do my best to fulfill them."
Prince Yong frowned slightly, his face instantly darkening, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes, his tone filled with obvious dissatisfaction, "Lady Yun, are you looking down on me? I personally invited you, yet you show such disrespect."
Yu Wan's heart tightened, and she said with a forced smile, "Your Highness is too kind. I had no such intention."
Prince Yong's lips curled into a cold smile, and he pushed the wine cup forward further, his attitude hardening, his eyes revealing a threat.
Since she had no such intention, Madam Yun drank the wine.
"After drinking this wine, Madam Yun's opening ceremony today will go smoothly."
Yu Wan could easily hear the threat in his words. She gritted her teeth and her anger flared up instantly.
She glanced at the wine cup in Prince Yong's hand, then slowly reached out and took it.
Upon seeing this, a dark glint flashed in the eyes of the Prince of Yong, and a smile appeared on his lips.
But the next moment, his smile froze on his face.
Yu Wan held the wine cup, and just as it was about to reach her lips, she suddenly and without hesitation turned around and splashed all the wine in the cup onto Prince Yong's face!
Why should we tolerate this!
In Shijia Village, she had no power or influence, so she tolerated Yun Shang and Wang Wanshu.
Now that she has returned to Anguo Mansion, why should she still suffer in silence?
So what if he's a prince? Does being a prince make you so disgusting?
Prince Yong was stunned by this sudden action and stood there dumbfounded. Wine streamed down his cheeks and neck, soaking his magnificent brocade robe.
His eyes widened, filled with disbelief and anger.
"You dare splash me?!"
You jinx! I'm throwing this on you!
Yu Wan rolled her eyes inwardly, but put on an apologetic expression and said, "Your Highness, please forgive me. My hand slipped a little. I'm so sorry. I really didn't mean to. Your Highness is so magnanimous, please don't take offense."
"Your Highness, please wait a moment. I will have my servant find you a clean set of clothes."
After saying that, Yu Wan turned around and prepared to leave.
Prince Yong roared angrily, his eyes filled with malice, "Yu Shi, if you dare to walk through this door today, your shop will disappear from Shengjing City tomorrow."
Some people's malice comes out of nowhere.
For example, Prince Yong.
It was clearly their first meeting, yet he seemed intent on making things difficult for her.
Yu Wan wanted to let things settle peacefully, but if someone was clearly trying to make things difficult for her, showing weakness wouldn't solve the problem.
She stopped in her tracks, slowly turned around, and the annoyance in her eyes transformed into undisguised coldness.
She looked directly into Prince Yong's eyes and smiled: "Your Highness has connections everywhere. If you want to make things difficult for a weak woman like me, it would be easy for you. But please think twice before you act. What will the people say if Your Highness targets a weak woman like me for no reason?"
"If the people gossip and damage the prince's reputation, that would be bad."
With his hair soaked with wine plastered to his face, Prince Yong looked disheveled and even more ferocious.
He laughed in fury, his laughter chillingly cold. "Are you threatening me?!"
So what if I threatened you!
What, he's allowed to threaten me, but I'm not allowed to threaten her?
She cursed under her breath, but her smile grew even brighter on her face.
"Your Highness, what are you saying? I was just trying to kindly remind you."
"If this matter gets out, who knows how it will be exaggerated and embellished. Your Highness, you have a distinguished reputation; why should you bear the infamy of bullying others for the sake of my little shop?"
Prince Yong's face grew increasingly gloomy with anger, like dark clouds before a storm, so black they seemed to drip water.
He stared intently at Yu Wan, his gaze seeming as if he wanted to devour her alive.
After a long while, the anger on his face suddenly vanished, replaced by a sinister smile that sent chills down one's spine. "Fine! You're very good! Yu Wan, is it? I'll remember you."
No sooner had the words been spoken than the door to the private room was suddenly pushed open from the outside.
Yun Shang walked in a few steps, his expression unchanged, as if he was completely unaware of the tense and eerie atmosphere in the private room.
He first bowed to Prince Yong, then turned to Yu Wan and said:
"Manager Wan said there are some things he needs you to handle."
Yu Wan and Yun Shang exchanged a glance and immediately understood his meaning. They smiled apologetically at Prince Yong and said, "Your Highness, please forgive us. There is an urgent matter at the shop. We hope Your Highness will understand. Please excuse us."
Yun Shang led Yu Wan away.
Prince Yong looked at the two holding hands intimately and slowly wiped the wine stains off his face.
