He Xiaoman felt terribly annoyed. She found it unfathomable for this to happen after just a trip to the bathroom.
No way. She could not afford to embarra.s.s her rich acquaintances.
He Xiaoman inhaled deeply. She clutched her purse and said to the manager in a deep voice, “Is this how you treat your guests? Would I have brought my friends over for lunch if you didn’t confirm my reservation?”
She paused before she continued. “I have never seen any restaurant suddenly revoking members.h.i.+p rights and chasing their patrons out. If you don’t give us a table, I will lodge a complaint against you now.”
The manager smiled professionally. “Be my guest.”
He sounded particularly arrogant.
He Xiaoman’s face turned livid, and she was no longer capable of acting poised. She rubbed her temples angrily before she raised her head and said sternly, “Do you know who we are...”
Before she finished her sentence, she suddenly saw Huo Yao sitting by the window from the corner of her eye and was instantly dumbstruck.
Was her foster daughter not here to be a waitress?
Why would she end up sitting there?
He Xiaoman was completely befuddled. She turned to look at the young man sitting across Huo Yao. Although she could only see his profile, she could clearly remember who he was.
He was the Huo family’s second son, who was a lawyer. She had experienced his foul mouth firsthand when Lu Xia first returned to the Lu family.
He Xiaoman swiftly scoffed as she pointed at her foster daughter and said, “Your restaurant is a complete joke. You would rather serve people who pretend to be rich like them than real paying guests like us. What’s the meaning of this?”
The manager looked in the direction that He Xiaoman was pointing in. In two seconds, he veered his eyes away to shake his head as he looked at He Xiaoman strangely.
He Xiaoman found the manager’s face expression to be odd. It seemed as though he was ridiculing her.
He Xiaoman frowned. “What’s with this att.i.tude of yours?” she asked him coldly.
“Stop wasting everyone’s time. You are barred from the restaurant from now on,” said the manager impatiently before he looked in Huo Yao’s direction again.
Miss Huo Yao was almost done eating, so he had to head over and serve her some fruit.
The manager contemplated as he turned to leave from there.
He Xiaoman lost all composure and shouted coldly. “Stop right there! I’m not going to let this slide if you don’t explain yourself!”
The manager suddenly turned back. Since he was burly and had rugged looks, he looked downright menacing when he was not smiling.
He Xiaoman was so startled in that instant when she made eye contact with him that she staggered and took a step back instinctively.
The manager pursed his lips before his eyes landed in Huo Yao’s direction and said coldly, “Do you know who they are?”
He Xiaoman frowned and clutched her purse tightly. An ominous feeling suddenly rose in her heart.
“They are our boss’ daughter and son,” said the manager calmly before he left.
The restaurant owners’ daughter and son...
The words kept echoing in He Xiaoman’s ears. She stared at his receding back with her eyes wide in sheer disbelief for a long time.
How could that be?
They stayed in a lousy district and drove a beat-up Santana. How could such a poor family be related to this restaurant that was among the top 100 in the Forbes Global 500?
The restaurant manager must be lying, right?!
