Chapter 1658: Just Because My Boss is One of the Four Young Masters
Cheng Jiuyi sighed.
"A few friends came up from below, wanting to taste the specialty dishes of Capital City. So I thought of your place, hoping my friends could try your standard dishes. But Fatty told me the originally reserved private room was already occupied.
I personally came to negotiate with them and agreed to pay for this meal, suggesting they pack the dishes to take away. However, these students didn’t want to leave, and we couldn’t find a good solution—."
Upon hearing Young Master Cheng say "your place," Mengyu realized that the portly man wasn’t the owner of the roast duck restaurant.
Mengyu’s Divine Sense scanned the entire store and saw that the holder of the license was a young man, definitely not this person.
However, this period hadn’t reached the time of widespread commerce yet, and some people originally from established units wanted to venture into business but couldn’t use their own names. Thus, many corporate legal representatives were one person, while the actual holders were another.
Therefore, Mengyu didn’t entirely rule out the possibility that this portly man might be the owner of the restaurant.
Moreover, she noticed someone in the office with the business license hanging up.
This person’s name was Chen Xinyu, and her husband had once asked for Mengyu’s help to cure a disease.
The portly man looked at Mengyu with a suppressive gaze, and when he saw her, his eyes brightened momentarily before becoming stern again.
He frowned and said, "You’ve occupied the reserved private room. Why haven’t you left? Do you know whom you’re offending?"
"Heh, what a store owner who turns black into white!" Mengyu sneered. "I want to ask, when I came to your store for a meal and booked this specialty private room, did your store inform us beforehand that someone had already reserved it?"
Of course, there wasn’t; otherwise, how could she have booked it?
"Your specialty private room must be guarded by someone. If it was really reserved, why didn’t you say so? And why did you serve us a table of medium-standard dishes?
By the time we’re halfway through, you tell us the private room was reserved and ask us to leave. If it were you, would you believe it?"
The portly man was momentarily speechless after hearing Mengyu’s words: "I admit our store made a mistake, but mistakes must be corrected. The private room was reserved first, so you must leave."
"Heh, your store made a mistake; why should we as guests bear it? I paid first before we started eating. Why should we leave halfway?"
"Why? Just because my boss is one of the Four Young Masters!" Fatty couldn’t help but interrupt.
Mengyu laughed coldly again: "So, your store really bullies customers, favoring whoever has higher status, regardless of who came first?"
The portly man nodded straightforwardly: "Yes, because your status isn’t as high as Young Master Cheng’s, so you should leave."
The service boy immediately said: "Dear guest, you just said that as long as our store owner asked you to leave, you would surely leave. Now that our store owner has said so, please leave quickly."
Mengyu suddenly burst into laughter: "The owner? Is he the owner? Hahaha, that’s hilarious. Do you know what will happen to you if your real store owner finds out you asked someone to impersonate him and bully customers?"
The portly man’s eyes flashed with panic: "What nonsense are you spouting? I... I am the owner. I call the shots in this store. You should leave quickly. If you don’t, I’ll call security."
"Fine, call them. You’re only pretending to be the owner because they’re not here. I want to see who dares to throw me out today. Le Yin, throw these people out and close the door so our meal won’t be disturbed!"
"Yes, Eldest Lady!" Le Yin responded, grabbing Fatty nearest to him with his left hand and the service boy Xiao Song with his right, flinging them out, then moved to grab the portly man.
