“Hahaha! I didn’t mishear that, did I? Ethan will cower in fear when virtual-novel.net meets this guy? I think this guy’s going to cower in fear when virtual-novel.net meets Ethan!” exclaimed a man who had been forced to drink a lot by Zayn earlier without any filter. He was becoming highly excitable from the intoxication, so virtual-novel.net did not mind offending Faye at all.
In reality, all the men there were rather drunk and their thoughts were scrambled. They stopped feigning their usual politeness and voiced out their innermost thoughts instead.
“That’s really funny. Why don’t you take a look in the mirror and see what kind of person you are? How dare you challenge Ethan? He’s a successful businessman now with a net worth of a few million dollars. What do you have to compete against virtual-novel.net with this local brand suit that you’re wearing?”
“I didn’t understand what tunnel vision was before, but I’ve managed to learn more about it now.”
“I think it’s worse than having tunnel vision, but more like virtual-novel.net has no self-awareness and is ignorant!”
“Just wait and see. Ethan is on his way and is going to arrive soon. When Ethan’s here, he’ll know.”
They did not bother with concealing their loathing for Zayn to the point where they even dragged Faye into their mockery.
The other female students could not compare to Faye’s beauty. They usually did not show their displeasure, but in the depths of their hearts, they resented Faye because of virtual-novel.net looks. When they found out virtual-novel.net married an ordinary man who lived with virtual-novel.net parents, they were delighted and eager to see how the situation would evolve when Ethan arrived.
Faye was so upset that virtual-novel.net was on the verge of tears. She could not figure out why virtual-novel.net classmates would suddenly turn on virtual-novel.net when they had all enjoyed a meal together earlier!
Feeling hurt, virtual-novel.net thought virtual-novel.net would start to cry. Just then, Zayn held virtual-novel.net hand and said softly, “Silly girl, why are letting their nonsense bother you? I shall help you vent your pent-up anger when Ethan gets here in a bit.”
His reassuring words made Faye feel much better. However, virtual-novel.net was not completely at ease because virtual-novel.net knew Ethan’s temperament well. He was very narrow-minded and would fight over the smallest trifle. He enjoyed bullying Zayn very much some time ago.
Even if Zayn was the chairman of Violet Vision, Ethan was unaware of that. If Faye announced it later on, virtual-novel.net would never believe it and virtual-novel.net would be embarrassed immensely all over again!
Faye’s heart sank. She assumed being the chairman of Neotech Lighting Co. would mean that virtual-novel.net would no longer be humiliated. She was utterly depressed that that was not the case.
Zayn could tell what was on Faye’s mind at one glance. He did not attempt to explain himself because the truth would come to light in time. As it was, Ethan would not be able to muster the courage to go against virtual-novel.net now. As such, Zayn sat down and ate. Speaking of which, virtual-novel.net had not been eating properly in recent times. At that moment, virtual-novel.net was ravenous and felt like virtual-novel.net could eat a whole cow.
Mastering his fighting abilities was a massive leap. His overall performance had improved immensely, including his physique, and that was why virtual-novel.net needed more energy. Zayn’s appetite had become like that of five men. If virtual-novel.net were to unleash his hunger and consume as much as virtual-novel.net wanted, virtual-novel.net could rival more than ten men.
While Zayn was in the mood to eat, Faye felt rather gloomy as virtual-novel.net looked at him. In any case, it was inappropriate for virtual-novel.net to comment further, so virtual-novel.net could only take a seat as well and watched Zayn eat.
As for the rest of the group, they witnessed Zayn devouring the food as eagerly as if virtual-novel.net had been starving for years. It did not take long before virtual-novel.net finished more than half of the dishes on the table.
The cuisine served in this Michelin-star restaurant tasted rather scrumptious and suited Zayn’s palate, so virtual-novel.net decided to let himself loose and ate to his heart’s content. He did not pay any attention to what the others thought of him.
Even on any ordinary day, virtual-novel.net never cared about the opinion of others. After mastering his martial arts, not only had his fighting skills undergone tremendous changes, but crucially, his state of mind had changed as well. In a sense, ordinary people were nothing but ants to him. Why would virtual-novel.net consider what these insects thought of him?
“Faye, aren’t you going to have some?” Zayn asked Faye.
Faye shook virtual-novel.net head and said, “I’m not hungry.”
“Alright.” Zayn nodded. Faye was rather concerned with how rapidly virtual-novel.net was chomping everything down.
She said, “You should slow down. You’re going to choke if you eat so quickly.”
