Chapter 412: Chapter 412: Lu Youxi’s Business Has Grown This Big? Chapter 412: Chapter 412: Lu Youxi’s Business Has Grown This Big? In her last life, it was already difficult enough for Lin Jingshen not to drag her down, let alone expect him to protect her when it mattered?
At that ti, Mr. Lin recognized her abilities and intentionally wanted her to take over Lin’s, starting to train her step by step in the company.
At that ti, Lin Jingshen was still very unconvinced and always tried to prove his capability, only to end up holding her back quite a bit.
Ti and again, scolded several tis by Mr. Lin, he finally gave up on proving himself.
But deep down, Lin Jingshen still believed he had great skills; it was just that he never got the chance to show them, even feeling that Lu Youxi was blocking his opportunities.
In fact, Lin Jingshen knew deep down that his abilities were not as good as Lu Youxi’s.
But the more he felt this way, the more conflicted his feelings toward Lu Youxi beca.
From an initial simple liking, to later feelings mixed with love and jealousy, and then feeling inferior in front of Lu Youxi, he beca increasingly unwilling to face, let alone protect her.
That afternoon, Lu Youxi along with the village chief and Yin Yiming arrived early at Dongshenglai.
They arrived half an hour earlier than the ti they had scheduled with Yuehaolai.
Lu Youxi didn’t ntion the matter of the surveillance caras to the village chief and Yin Yiming to avoid making them nervous.
Arriving early was not just to be ahead of ti but also to have enough ti to properly prepare.
It was better than arriving later than the other party and possibly facing unexpected issues.
Lu Youxi also took the opportunity to hand over the rice to the waiter, asking them to cook it in their kitchen.
Moreover, Lu Youxi wanted to secretly check the positions of the surveillance caras, preparing for any ergencies that might occur tonight.
The taxi stopped at the entrance of Dongshenglai, and the three of them got out.
Nowadays, it was getting increasingly difficult to hail a taxi in the Imperial Capital.
It was common to see taxis that obviously saw people hailing on the roadside yet not stopping.
Lu Youxi thought to herself that she needed to find ti to get her driver’s license.
Upon entering Dongshenglai with the village chief and Yin Yiming, the general manager hurriedly approached them and greeted, “President Lu.”
The village chief: “???”
Yin Yiming: “???”
What, had Lu Youxi’s business grown so large?
To enter Dongshenglai and be directly addressed as “President Lu”?
They were unaware that the person in front of them was even the general manager of Dongshenglai.
But the manner of his dress was different from that of regular employees.
It wasn’t the usual staff uniform, and although he was wearing a suit, it was clearly different from what the lobby manager wore.
Moreover, the lobby manager was standing right behind the general manager, with a natag on his suit that made it clear who he was.
So, who was the man standing in front of him?
At any rate, judging by his deanor, it seed impossible for him to hold a low position.
“President Lin, why have you co out in person?” Lu Youxi said, surprised.
The last ti Lu Youxi and Zhou Shuyan had co, Shi Yusheng wanted everyone at Dongshenglai to recognize Lu Youxi. For the staff, he simply wanted them to rember Lu Youxi.
But he had the general manager and others et with Lu Youxi properly behind closed doors.
Shi Yusheng had arranged for Lu Youxi to directly seek him out when visiting Dongshenglai in the future; if he wasn’t around, then she should go straight to the general manager.
Thus, upon seeing him, Lu Youxi recognized the general manager right away.
The general manager leaned over and whispered in Lu Youxi’s ear, “President Zhou and President Shi are concerned, but both find it inconvenient to show up personally, worried it might draw the other party’s attention.”
Lu Youxi smiled, thinking to herself that his ergence was quite noticeable and attention-grabbing.
The village chief and Yin Yiming didn’t hear what the general manager had said and wondered what secret discussions were going on with Lu Youxi, making it all seem so mysterious.
“This is Manager Zhao, he will lead you three to Haisheng Hall,” President Lin explained to Lu Youxi, “I’m worried that it would be too obvious if I were to show you the way.”
Lu Youxi nodded, “Understood, thank you.”
“You’re too polite,” the general manager quickly responded, “I’ll leave now and will keep an eye out from the shadows.”
“Alright, I truly appreciate your help tonight, thank you for your efforts,” Lu Youxi kindly replied.
“Think nothing of it.”
Lu Youxi definitely couldn’t have any trouble at Dongshenglai.
According to Shi Yusheng, if sothing were to happen to Lu Youxi on his turf, he would never be able to face Zhou Shuyan for the rest of his life.
“President Lu, Mr. Fang, Mr. Yin, this way please,” Manager Zhao courteously said.
Considering he was now a general manager himself, the village chief thought he should uphold his composure not to embarrass Lu Youxi and managed to remain calm.
However, for Yin Yiming, who had truly never been exposed to such grandeur, it was quite different.
His family’s financial conditions were just average, hence his need to work and study.
So, normally, he would not even indulge in small restaurants, let alone a grand hotel like Dongshenglai.
It was only after working at Hope Restaurant that he got to eat food from there.
Usually, the guests he encountered were mostly nearby office workers and students.
He had never seen such a display, and he was quite nervous, even overwheld.
He hadn’t expected Manager Zhao to consider him as well.
Following behind Lu Youxi towards Haisheng Hall, Manager Zhao noticed the bag of rice Lu Youxi was carrying, “President Lu, is this the rice to be stead by our kitchen?”
“Yes, sorry for the trouble,” Lu Youxi nodded.
“Let carry it,” Manager Zhao said and took the bag of rice from Lu Youxi’s hand.
“There won’t be too much for us few; the rest can try so to see how it tastes, and give us feedback,” Lu Youxi said with a smile.
“Of course,” Manager Zhao quickly replied, “I’ll have them all try and give serious feedback.”
“This is Haisheng Hall,” Manager Zhao led them to the door of Haisheng Hall, opened the door, invited the three to enter first, followed them in, and then stepped aside from the village chief and Yin Yiming to quietly tell Lu Youxi, “President Lu, the cara is placed under the painting of the deep sea on the wall.”
Lu Youxi looked over, took a good look, and finally spotted the cara.
Lu Youxi: “…Who installed it, it’s pretty hidden.”
If it weren’t for Manager Zhao’s reminder, it wouldn’t have been easy for her to find.
Even with Manager Zhao’s hint, it took Lu Youxi a good while to notice it.
The other party was definitely coming to retrieve the cara, and Lu Youxi didn’t want to be seen purposely looking for the cara.
Just a glance would reveal that she was aware.
Manager Zhao chuckled awkwardly and said, “Assistant Wei placed it.”
Lu Youxi thought to herself that these people’s assistants really all had their own styles.
Manager Zhao took the rice to the kitchen first, and Lu Youxi took the opportunity to casually stroll to the position of the cara in the room, turning her back to the cara to see the direction it could capture, getting a sense of everything.
After a while, Manager Zhao ca back to report that the rice had been delivered to the kitchen, and Lu Youxi started to order so dishes.
Lu Youxi felt that it was highly unlikely they would reach an agreent tonight, but she earnestly ordered anyway.
Seeing that the village chief and Yin Yiming were still very nervous, Lu Youxi smiled and said, “Don’t be nervous, I reckon there’s a high chance we won’t co to an agreent tonight, so don’t feel pressured, just treat it as practice.”
