Chapter 126: Chu Sihan Was The Scariest
Tian Xiang Restaurant.
Since the teacher was not around today, Mu Yan and Yu Yang dragged Lu Ran out to drink at Tian Xiang Restaurant.
After receiving the news, Lin Jiang had already gotten someone to book a room early in the morning.
After meeting up, the four of them went to Tian Xiang Restaurant.
As s.h.i.+ Yi and Yun Ting did not like the atmosphere in the Chu Mansion, they did not follow Chu Sihan to the Chu Mansion. Instead, they stayed at the Thousand Leaf Inn with Young Master Jiang’s subordinates.
Just now, Young Master Jiang’s subordinates had gone out to investigate a case. He and s.h.i.+ Yi wanted to go to Tian Xiang Restaurant for a drink. When they reached the entrance, they happened to b.u.mp into Lin Jiang and his men.
However, neither party knew the other. Hence, after entering the inn, they each went to their own rooms.
Not long after they went upstairs, Chu Sihan led Lu Sheng and He Lai in.
“Lord!”
When Shopkeeper Mu saw Chu Sihan, he hurriedly put down his work and went up to welcome him.
“The usual place.”
Chu Sihan said lightly.
“Yes!”
After agreeing, Shopkeeper Mu personally sent them to the largest room on the second floor.
Chu Sihan was the only one who used this room. Shopkeeper Mu usually did not dare to let anyone in. Even if Mu Yan invited his cla.s.smates for dinner, he did not dare to open it casually.
A waiter would come in to clean the place every day. Hence, it was spotless even if it was rarely used.
Chu Sihan let Lu Sheng and He Lai order the dishes. He sat opposite them and drank the tea Chu Yun poured for him.
Five minutes later.
None of the dishes from the two rooms were served yet. Almost all the dishes in the middle room had been served.
s.h.i.+ Yi, who was famished, witnessed this scene and was extremely unhappy.
Hence, he grabbed a waiter who served the dishes and asked, “Why did the dishes we order not arrive yet but they come one after another for the next room?”
“Well…”
The waiter was a bit troubled. These were the orders of the shopkeeper. They could not make the decision!
Another waiter said politely, “Dear guest, don’t be anxious. Your dishes have been prepared. After they’re served, they’ll be served here.”
“I don’t care!”
s.h.i.+ Yi snorted coldly. “Everything has to be done on the order of arrival. Why should we order first but get served later? Bring your shopkeeper here.”
He was the mighty tyrant of the capital, yet he was being bullied in such a small place. How dare he?
“Enough!”
Yun Ting walked out and glanced at him. He said to the two waiters, “Don’t call the shopkeeper. Just send our dishes up.”
“Thank you for your understanding. Your dishes will be served soon!”
After replying, the two waiters hurried off hand in hand.
“What happened to you?”
s.h.i.+ Yi frowned and looked at Yun Ting in confusion.
“Do you know whose business Tian Xiang Restaurant belongs to?” Yun Ting asked faintly.
s.h.i.+ Yi snorted coldly. “Why should I care who owns it? Even if it’s owned by the Emperor, it has to be first come, first served.”
“Oh.”
Yun Ting smiled coldly and said, “Then go to the Chu Mansion now and tell Brother Chu to fire the shopkeeper here.”
“Brother Chu?”
s.h.i.+ Yi frowned. “What has this got to do with Brother Chu?”
“Think about it yourself.”
Yun Ting could not be bothered to speak further with him and returned to his room.
s.h.i.+ Yi scratched his head and stood there in a daze. Then, his eyes widened.
He pushed the door open and returned to the room. Looking at Yun Ting, he asked, “You’re saying that this restaurant belongs to Brother Chu?”
Yun Ting nodded. “There’s still hope.”
“Oh! Thankfully, Brother Yun, you saved the situation in time. Otherwise, I would be finished!”
s.h.i.+ Yi patted his chest fearfully.
The Emperor was not scary, but Chu Sihan was!
