When the waiter saw their clumsy manner, he could only listen and nod.
Yu Tian had heard all this a long time ago and turned a deaf ear to them.
Qing Xiaowan did not want to embarrass Yu Tian. She said in a low voice, “Why don’t we change to another restaurant?”
Yu Tian said indifferently, “We’ll eat here!”
The waiter came over and said awkwardly, “Sir, can you please change seats? I’m just a waiter. Don’t make things difficult for me, okay?”
Yu Tian was not willing to listen to this.
“If you don’t want to make things difficult, then I’ll change seats. Since when did a waiter’s status become higher than a guest’s?”
The waiter had nothing to say. No one could afford to offend a guest, so he could only look for the manager. The middle-aged female manager had already heard the conversation. With the sound of her high heels, she came up to Yu Tian. Her attitude was very cold.
“Sir, I’m sorry. The waiter may not have expressed it clearly. We’re a western restaurant and we have a dress code. The lady you brought doesn’t comply with the dress code. Kindly be mindful of the other guests. Why don’t you change to another table? Or let me treat you to a meal at another restaurant!”
The man in a suit behind Yu Tian swept his hair back, looking arrogant. “You heard what the manager said. There’s a dress code here, and there are foreigners everywhere. You should be mindful and not lower the status of your countrymen!”
The woman in the red suit also put on a noble posture. “We’re all people with status. We don’t want to lower ourselves to the level of poor people like you. Don’t make us seem as if we’re unreasonable. How about this? You can change tables. As long as you keep your distance from us, we’ll treat you to whatever you want to eat today!”
Yu Tian smiled indifferently. “I’m afraid you can’t afford it!” As he spoke, Yu Tian looked at the signboard at the bar counter. Under the words “Violet Western Style Restaurant”, there were also the words “Tianhai Group”. In Linhai, almost all the high-end places belonged to Chu Qing.
The middle-aged man threw the white silk napkin on the table and sneered. “You sure talk big. What do you know about dining in a high-end restaurant? Do you know how to use a knife and fork? It’s not that I look down on you, but this is probably your first time coming to such a high -end place. Do you know how to order from the menu?”
“If you want to be romantic, you have to look at your own abilities. Manager, give them two servings of abalone fried rice. After they’re done eating, tell them to scram. Don’t degrade such a good dining environment!”
The manager was quite appreciative of the middle-aged man. She smiled and said, “Sir, you’re really generous. Later, we’ll give you a pastry as a token of our appreciation!”
Then, she turned his smile into contempt and looked at Yu Tian. “You heard it, Sir. The abalone fried rice is free for you. You just need to experience the environment here. Please go to the table under the pillar over there. You may leave after you’re done eating. If it weren’t for that gentleman’s generosity, we wouldn’t have entertained people like you!”
‘After all the ruckus, it turned out that she was treating me and Qing Xiaowan as stinky beggars.’ Yu Tian’s expression did not change. His indifferent gaze did not have the slightest fluctuation.
“What if I don’t leave? What can you do about it? You can either take my order now or get out of my way. Don’t disturb my mood here!”
The manager’s face darkened. She blinked in disbelief. His attitude became even more unreasonable. “Sir, I’m trying to reason with you. If you don’t want to give me face, then I can only ask you to leave now. No one will take your order. Also, I have to tell you that this is a subordinate restaurant of the Tianhai Group.
“The boss of the Tianhai Group, Chu Qing, is our boss. Do you think you can behave atrociously here?”
Yu Tian chuckled.
“What’s wrong with Chu Qing? Can Chu Qing stop people from eating here? Can Chu Qing chase away the customers who come to eat?”
Just as they were talking, a middle-aged man arrived. The manager turned around and her expression changed drastically. She hurriedly stood properly and bowed.
“Hello, Director Wu!”
Yu Tian raised his eyes and looked at the person who had arrived. He was in his forties and had a
belly. It was extremely inappropriate for him to wear a suit.
The man laughed and said, “The restaurant management is good. I’ll ask President Chu to promote you later. Oh right, let me introduce you. These two are clients of the company. We’ll have a meal here and talk about some work!”
Then, he got closer to the manager’s ear and whispered, “Get some good drinks and put them under the company’s expenses!”
The manager understood.
“Okay. Director Wu, please take a seat. I’ll go make the arrangements right away!”
Before sitting down, Director Wu even glanced at Yu Tian and Qing Xiaowan. Especially when he looked at Qing Xiaowan, he even licked his lips. That shameless look made Yu Tian so disgusted that he almost vomited.
After he sat down, the middle-aged man’s face changed, and he started to suck up to him enthusiastically.
“Director Wu, it’s really hard to ask you out for a meal. Back then, I worked with you. Now that you’re a manager in Tianhai Group, you should also help your brother out!”
Wu Xinran grinned and said arrogantly, “Right now, I’m barely making a living. It’s not easy for me to be able to cling to the big tree of the Chu family. I’ll try my best to arrange the plan you proposed. But you also know that there are many people in the department and they have mouths. ”
The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows and naturally understood what he meant. There was no need for him to say anything.
“Director Wu, feel free to arrange it. I’ve long prepared it here. I guarantee that you’ll be satisfied. After dinner, I’ll bring you to my club to take a look. The new stock has arrived!”
Wu Xinran’s eyes flashed and he smiled. “Oh, then I’ll have to take a look!”
At this moment, the waiter carried two servings of abalone fried rice and placed them on Yu Tian and Qing Xiaowan’s table.
“This is the abalone fried rice that the gentleman ordered for you!”
The voice was quite loud, and Wu Xinran heard it. He asked the middle-aged man, feeling a little strange, “Do you know him?”
The middle-aged man looked as if he was not joking. He said disdainfully, “For someone of my level to know such a person? Aren’t you looking down on me? Isn’t it to create a good dining atmosphere for you? I just want them to change their seats. And give them a bite to eat, and then they can quickly scram!”
Wu Xinran looked at Yu Tian with understanding and laughed arrogantly. “We’re just having a simple meal. There’s no need to make such a big scene. If we really want to make a scene, with my status, I can’t come to this restaurant either. Since we’re here, let’s just have a casual meal. There’s no need to lower ourselves to their level. It’ll look like we’re bullying them!”
Yu Tian laughed when he heard this. He calmly said to the waiter, “We’ve already been sitting here for half a day. Why aren’t you here to take our order? Do you really want me to call your boss over?”.
