Every day, many romantically inclined n and won co to Crystal Restaurant for a al.
Shen Dong and Chen Yuyan walked hand in hand into Crystal Restaurant and were imdiately greeted by a waiter.
Shen Dong stated the reservation they had, and the waiter promptly took them to a window table.
After ordering, the two chatted while they waited.
“So many people,” Chen Yuyan looked around the restaurant and found not a single empty table.
“Yes, a lot of people,” Shen Dong nodded.
To tell the truth, Shen Dong had never eaten Western food before.
Coming from a small county town, he really wasn’t attracted to Western cuisine.
Unlike Chen Yuyan, who was a local from Hai City.
Chen Yuyan had eaten Western food before, just not at Crystal Restaurant.
She was sensible and wouldn’t spend her father’s money to dine at such an expensive place.
As the two conversed, a young man dressed in lavish clothing entered Crystal Restaurant with a female companion.
“Mr.
Wang,” the waiter imdiately greeted him.
“Arrange a window seat for ,” Wang Hai said arrogantly.
He often ca here to eat and never made a reservation; he would always demand a table upon arrival.
“Mr.
Wang, there are no tables available right now,” the waiter said, looking troubled.
“No tables available?
How can that be?
Call your manager over,” Wang Hai grew displeased.
He naturally knew that asking soone to give up their table wasn’t sothing a junior waiter could decide on; for such matters, one had to talk to the manager.
“Of course, please wait a mont,” the waiter said and imdiately went to find the manager.
“Mr.
Wang, welco,” said a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes, approaching with a smile all over his face.
He was Sun Gang, the manager of Crystal Restaurant.
“You know the situation, now arrange a table for ,” Wang Hai said with an indifferent attitude.
As a billionaire’s son, he didn’t need to show politeness to a restaurant manager.
“Mr.
Wang, we’re fully booked today.
How about you wait in my office with a cup of tea?
I’ll notify you as soon as soone leaves.
What do you think?” Sun Gang said, smiling all the while.
“That won’t work.
I’m hungry and can’t wait.
Arrange a table for right now,” Wang Hai shook his head.
When it ca to als, it was others who waited for him, not the other way around.
“This…” Sun Gang found himself in a difficult spot.
If he were to ask custors to leave, it would surely impact the restaurant’s reputation.
“Look, I don’t want to make this hard for you.
Just go ask soone to give up their table and say I’ll compensate them with one hundred thousand yuan.
How about that?” Wang Hai didn’t want to make things ugly.
“Okay, I’ll take a look,” Sun Gang gritted his teeth and agreed.
He would try, and whether it worked out or not was no longer his concern.
“The tables by the window, the others there, I recognize so of them, it wouldn’t be good to ask for their tables,” Wang Hai mused.
“Only those two at that table, I don’t know them, and they’re not dressed very fancy, probably not rich, you go ask them,” Wang Hai glanced at the various window seats and finally rested his eyes on Shen Dong and Chen Yuyan’s table, gesturing for Sun Gang to negotiate with them.
“Sure, I’ll ask,” Sun Gang nodded and walked over to Shen Dong and Chen Yuyan.
“Let’s go over there too,” Wang Hai said, wrapping his arm around his companion’s slender waist and following Sun Gang.
“Sir, madam, hello, I am Sun Gang, the manager of this restaurant,” Sun Gang introduced himself with a beaming smile to Shen Dong and Chen Yuyan at their table.
“Hello, what can I do for you?” Shen Dong asked, looking up.
“Sir, the thing is…” Sun Gang explained Wang Hai’s proposal to pay a hundred thousand yuan for their table.
“Kid, by the look of you, you’re probably just a salaried worker, trying to have a romantic outing with your girlfriend.
A hundred thousand isn’t a small sum; it’s either half a year or even your whole year’s salary.
Just take the money and leave.
You shouldn’t be romancing when you’re poor,” Wang Hai spoke condescendingly.
“Hmm?” Shen Dong paused, taken aback by the unexpected encounter with such a wealthy young man.
He had only read about this kind of cash-throwing rich kid in novels.
He never thought he’d encounter one just after getting the system.
Wasn’t this just asking for a slap in the face?
“Sorry, I’m not short of a hundred thousand.
You’ll have to wait,” Shen Dong replied.
Shen Dong smiled and shook his head in refusal.
Not to ntion that he now had a system and had already made over twenty million in the futures market.
Even without the system, and not yet a multimillionaire,
he wouldn’t give up his seat while dining at a Western restaurant with his wife.
This wasn’t about money, it was about face.
People live for their reputation, and sotis, face is incredibly important.
“Two hundred thousand!” Wang Hai was used to throwing money around to solve problems.
In his worldview, money could solve all issues.
If money couldn’t solve a problem, it ant it wasn’t enough.
From the looks of this kid’s clothes, it was clear he was just an average Joe.
He wanted to use his wealth to knock him senseless.
The woman was quite beautiful, perhaps during the process of throwing money around, he could also win her favor—an added bonus.
“Sorry, like I said, you should wait,” Shen Dong shook his head again.
“Three hundred thousand!”
“Sorry.”
“Five hundred thousand!”
“You should leave.”
“One million!”
Wang Hai kept upping the ante until he reached one million.
However, Shen Dong remained unmoved.
Chen Yuyan had been silent all along.
If Shen Dong hadn’t made money in the futures market, she definitely would have spoken up to persuade him to accept.
One million, after all.
That’s no small sum.
Her father had run a small restaurant for over a decade to save up two million.
And now, just to give up a seat, they could get one million.
It was totally worth it.
They could simply co back to eat the next day.
But Shen Dong had made money in the futures market.
Besides, this also concerned Shen Dong’s face.
Without money, face wasn’t that important.
With money, face beca very important.
Since they were out, she would let Shen Dong decide.
No matter what Shen Dong did, she would support him.
At tis like these, she played the role of a supportive wife.
“Sorry,” Shen Dong still shook his head in refusal.
“Kid, if you refuse , you’re not going to end well,” Wang Hai threatened in a low voice.
“We live in a society governed by law, and I don’t believe you can do anything to .
Having money doesn’t an you can do whatever you want,” Shen Dong was unmoved.
The rich second generation might be wealthy, but he couldn’t believe that for such a trivial matter, they would go after him.
If the other party was really that kind of rich brat, then so be it.
He was soone with a system, and he wasn’t afraid of anyone.
“Kid, I’ll rember you.
Don’t let see you again,” Wang Hai threatened fiercely and left with his companion.
If it were anywhere else, he might have resorted to violence.
But even with his status, he wouldn’t dare to make a move in the Crystal Restaurant.
It was said that the Crystal Restaurant was a joint venture by several of Hai City’s top tycoons.
Anyone causing trouble in the Crystal Restaurant was definitely not going to et a good end.
