Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group

Chapter 263: Chapter 260 You Must Compensate (Third Update for Subscription)

Looking at the broken porcelain, the woman who had just exploded suddenly calmed down.

The manager on the side was about to go crazy.

What the hell is going on today?

Is this group here to smash porcelain together?

The woman looked at the shattered porcelain and was initially panicked.

But then she remembered that Zhao Ying had just broken porcelain without any repercussions and regained her composure.

”Zhang Ke, you fix this.”

If this had been any other time when porcelain was broken here, Zhang Ke would have been scared to death.

But thinking about how Ye Chen had no issues just now, he calmed down as well.

Such a good opportunity to show off, how could Zhang Ke miss it?

Zhang Ke calmly said to the manager, ”Sorry, my girlfriend accidentally broke your porcelain, but it’s okay, I’ll pay for it at full price.”

Knowing that the porcelain here was a fake, Zhang Ke was very generous.

How much could a fake cost? At most a few thousand, right?

The manager nodded, took out a notebook, and said, ”Sir, what you broke was Ming Dynasty porcelain, valued at 3.28 million.”

”Pfft!”

Zhang Ke, who had been calmly sipping his red wine, spat it out upon hearing the manager’s words.

”What? 3.28 million?”

Zhang Ke was suddenly furious.

”Are you kidding me? This is just a fake, 3.28 million? Do you think I’m a sucker?”

The restaurant manager sneered at Zhang Ke’s attitude, ”Fake? Every piece of porcelain here is genuine, how could it be fake?”

”But you just told me that the porcelain that guy broke was a fake.” Zhang Ke said angrily.

The manager snorted, ”How could your status compare to his? He is a valued customer of our restaurant. Even if he breaks genuine porcelain, it becomes fake. But you’re different, who do you think you are?”

”What was that?”

”That guy is just a DiDi Brother, why is it that when he breaks something it’s fake too, but when I break something I have to be responsible?”

Zhang Ke got enraged.

”I get it, you’re all in on this together to rip me off, I’m calling the police.”

The manager smiled lightly, ”Sir, if you don’t compensate, you don’t need to call the police, we’ll do it for you. We have certificates of authenticity and complete documentation for every porcelain. This Ming Dynasty piece was bought by our boss at the Jia De Auction House for 3.28 million, with all the documents intact.”

Zhang Ke’s girlfriend also angrily said, ”Why do they break something and not pay, but we have to? You’re just bullying us.”

”Exactly, there’s no way you’re scamming me here.”

The scene was chaotic.

Zhao Ying watched Zhang Ke’s clown-like performance and felt no attraction to him at all.

The same situation was handled much more gentlemanly by Ye Chen, while Zhang Ke acted like a thug. The gap was too wide.

Ye Chen was on the side, watching the show with a drink in hand.

This free drama was really entertaining.

Neither side was backing down.

The manager coldly said, ”Sir, if you don’t compensate, we will call the police, and you’ll bear all the consequences.”

Zhang Ke gritted his teeth, ”Fine, you think the Zhang Family is easy to bully? Just wait.”

He pulled out his phone and called his father.

Ye Chen had broken something earlier, and it was settled because of his status.

Surely his father had some clout in the business circle, so it wouldn’t be a problem.

He just couldn’t believe that his father’s status and clout couldn’t match Ye Chen’s.

Zhang Ke even believed that once his father stepped in, the issue would be easily resolved.

Watching Zhang Ke make a call, the manager remained unconcerned.

Calling someone? As if I’d be scared of you?

In the past, there were some rich kids who used their family background to act out in the restaurant, but didn’t they all behave in the end?

Zhang Ke dialed the phone, ”Dad, I took my girlfriend out to eat, and she accidentally broke a porcelain item. This restaurant wants us to pay 3.28 million for a fake. Dad, don’t you think this is bullying?”

”What? Something like this happened?” On the other side of the call, Zhang Ke’s father frowned.

”Dad, they’re trying to extort us, aren’t they slapping the Zhang Family in the face?”

Seeing his girlfriend’s admiring look, Zhang Ke felt very proud.

This act was a perfect ten.

After hearing what happened, Zhang Ke’s father frowned, ”What restaurant dares to mess with my son Zhang Shan? What’s the name of the place? I’ll send someone over to smash it.”

Hearing this, Zhang Ke was excited, ”This restaurant’s called ’Romantic Restaurant.’”

”What? Romantic Restaurant?” Upon hearing the name, Zhang Shan’s expression changed immediately.

Even his voice trembled a bit.

”Yes, Dad, it’s this restaurant. Hurry and send someone over to smash this place, daring to mess with our Zhang Family, it’s a death wish.”

”Smash my ass, do you know who owns the Romantic Restaurant? You’re running wild there? Are you out of your mind?”

Hearing his father’s reaction to the restaurant name, Zhang Ke was bewildered.

How could a DiDi Brother’s status resolve things, was his father afraid of the owner behind all this?

Zhang Shan shouted furiously, ”I go to this restaurant often. Their porcelain is all genuine. You’d better apologize and compensate them as needed right away. If you provoke the owner, even I can’t protect you.”

Bang!

The call ended.

Holding the phone, Zhang Ke was in complete shock.

He had thought that with his father’s influence, resolving this would be a piece of cake, but he didn’t expect his father to back down so quickly.

How could this be?

Ye Chen is just a DiDi driver.

Why does everyone give him face?

Am I not a rich second generation kid too? Why is it like this for me?

But since even his dad couldn’t help, Zhang Ke had no choice but to concede.

Putting the phone away, Zhang Ke lowered his head and approached the manager, ”Sorry, manager, I was wrong. I’ll pay for the antique fully, please forgive me. I won’t dare again.”

The restaurant manager smiled and nodded, ”Your apology is accepted. Pay up and get out of our restaurant immediately. From now on, you’re on our blacklist, and we’ll never accept your reservations again.”

Seeing Zhang Ke so deflated, his girlfriend immediately lost hope.

She had thought she hooked up with a super cool rich second-gen, but now, it seemed it was all fake.

What’s the use of such a man? Look at the other guy’s boyfriend, who settled everything with just a word.

The girl already made up her mind to break up with this loser as soon as they left the restaurant.

Zhao Ying couldn’t help but laugh watching Zhang Ke’s miserable state.

This meal was fantastic, the food was delicious, and there was such a good comedy to watch.

Zhang Ke had to empty his bank card and borrow more to scrape together the 3.28 million, then left with his head down.

”Ah, this Western restaurant is amazing, not only is the food good but you get to watch monkey shows, so fun.”

Zhang Ke: ”...”

Despite his hatred for Ye Chen grinding his teeth, Zhang Ke also understood that Ye Chen was not someone he could pull into this, so he just had to endure it.

He still couldn’t understand, why is a DiDi Brother being respected and feared by everyone, what’s with this world!
