Chapter 224: Slap, Slap, Slap, in the Face. Ouch!

The server did not mince words. “Since you can’t afford to pay, then you will have to stay here until you can clear your debt.”

“You…” Tu Xiupei looked at the insistent server then at the muscular man at the Spiritual Grandmaster level. She didn’t dare say anymore and had no choice but to swallow all her words. But she was really unable to afford 10 billion. In fact, she wasn’t even able to afford 1 billion.

There was nothing she could do. Tu Xiupei could only clench her teeth and relinquish the honor she’d gained earlier back to Feng Tianlan. “This banquet was hosted by my sister as the Feng Clan Head. I was only here to help my older sister out as a younger sister ought to. Eldest Sister is the host of this banquet.”

“But you were the one who gave orders to Spiritual Foods Restaurant and claimed credit for giving the pills away, so you’re the hostess. I’m only here for a meal,” Feng Tianlan replied quietly. Yunzhu had dug a really difficult hole for Tu Xiupei!

Tu Xiupei bit her lip and glared spitefully at Feng Tianlan. “But you were the one who said last night that you were hosting a banquet at the Spiritual Foods Restaurant. As for those pills, even though they came from you, the guests mistakenly assumed I was the one gifting them. I never said I was treating anyone or giving pills away.”

She had received so much praise, honor, and pride, but now she had to give it all back to Feng Tianlan. So many slaps in the face made her face sting.

“Oh, so now you remember that I was the one who said I would treat everyone?” Feng Tianlan laughed. “It looks like you really love snatching things from others and declaring yourself the owner of things that don’t belong to you.”

Tu Xiupei could only grit her teeth. Her little face felt like it was on fire, and Feng Tianlan didn’t feel bad about giving her a few more slaps. “I was only trying to help out Eldest Sister.”

“Oh, how nice of you,” Feng Tianlan said sarcastically. She looked at the server and said, “In that case, this banquet is still mine, after all.”

Tu Xiupei ground her teeth so hard that they were chattering, and she clenched her fists so hard that her nails dug into her skin. She didn’t feel any pain as she turned to leave.

“Wait up!” The server ran up to Tu Xiupei and blocked her way.

“What now? I’m a guest, but I still can’t leave?” Tu Xiupei turned nasty because she felt like this restaurant was bullying her.

The server didn’t bother beating around the bush and passed a different bill to her. “The Feng Clan Head did not order these dishes, so Miss Tu will still have to settle this bill.”

“A million gold coins!” Tu Xiupei nearly vomited blood when she saw the bill. These were very ordinary side dishes that should cost no more than ten or twenty gold coins. This restaurant had jacked up the prices.

They were obviously trying to bully her!

The server smiled harmlessly. “As a novice disciple of Flying Frost Pavilion, surely Miss Tu has a million, right?”

“My sister is the host, so you should look for her.” Tu Xiupei clenched her teeth and resisted the urge to tear the server apart. One million gold coins was pretty much all that she had.

“But the Feng Clan Head didn’t order these dishes. You were the one who ordered them and treated everyone, so of course I have to look for you. Besides, these kinds of dishes…” The server looked disdainfully at Tu Xiupei. “At a place like the Spiritual Foods Restaurant, the Feng Clan Head would have never allowed her guests to eat such poor food. It would be an insult.”

“I thought that Tu Xiupei was the one hosting the banquet, and I can’t believe she tried to snatch this honor from the Feng Clan Head.”

“She’s not the slightest bit embarrassed. She even claimed that she was the one who’d given the pills out even though it was really the Feng Clan Head.”

“She wanted a good name for herself without having to put in any money. Of course, there’s no such thing as a free lunch. Now, she can’t even bear to part with one million gold coins.”
