Chapter 551 A messy dinner for Jiang Zhen (2)
The waitress seemed apologetic. “I am really sorry, Sir. I didn’t mean to offend you. It’s just that your presence was too weak. I could only see these beautiful women and this cute boy.”Lihua choked even more. But her eyes were sparkling in delight.
Damn it, she is so cool! She is apologizing and insulting him at the same time!
Lihua clapped hard.
Jiang Zhen’s expression was turning uglier and colder.
My presence was too weak, she says?
Jiang Hua wanted to faint. Feeling the temperature rapidly drop, she gulped in fear, and she hugged herself.
The customers around the other tables quietly snickered. They could imagine Jiang Zhen’s embarrassment.
Jiang Zhen leaned in and narrowed his eyes. “You should take that back before I make your life miserable.”
She seemed frightened, and tears pooled in her eyes. “I am sorry, Sir…I-I am don’t have good eyesight, so I tend to miss out a few things or people who don’t make much of a difference…” she sniffled. “Please don’t fire me, Sir! My livelihood depends on this!”
Lihua’s jaw dropped.
Is she really apologizing or humiliating? Also, this dramatic acting seems oddly similar to Yaya’s! But it cannot be her…
Jiang Zhen stiffened again.
Don’t make much of a difference…
Now, the others burst into laughter on his face.
”This waitress is something.”
”But hey, don’t bully her! She said she has weak eyesight.”
”Yeah, don’t make her cry. Don’t be so harsh to fire her.”
They shook their heads in disappointment. The waitress looked pitiful, panicking and apologizing.
Jiang Zhen threw a glance at everybody. He recognized many families who belonged to the upper echelons of the society. They were laughing at his expense.
A big mistake to laugh at me, he coldly sneered. Let’s see if you all can see tomorrow.
A waiter quickly rushed to the waitress’s side, noticing the commotion. “My apologies, Sir!”
He had also worn a mask on his face just like the other servers. He glared at the waitress. “Look, what you did! You offended our esteemed customer! Where are your manners?”
She trembled. “I-I…”
”Enough! You will face appropriate punishment for this blunder! Don’t expect any salary this month! Now, leave!”
She sobbed and quickly ran away, wiping her tears.
Lihua was downcast.
It’s already over? I wanted to see more of this innocent humiliation.
The waiter bowed in front of Jiang Zhen. “Sir, I humbly apologize on her behalf. As she said, she has weak eyesight, and she is new at her job too…Can I request you to please be magnanimous and let this go? Rest assured. My manager will properly deal with her.”
Jiang Zhen was in an extremely sour mood, but seeing the waiter bow so low pleased him.
”I don’t want to see her face again,” he icily pronounced.
”Of course, sir! Thank you so much!”
He took his order and went away.
Lihua touched her chin.
That waiter’s voice felt like Assistant Fu’s too.
She sighed.
I am imagining a lot of things today…
The dinner was served piping hot. The delicious smell wafted up her nose, and she drooled.
Ah this is heaven…
Lihua took a bite of the flavorful noodles and braised meat. The taste melted on her tongue, but her expression slightly stiffened.
She looked at all her dishes and rapidly blinked her eyes.
It tastes just like how Wei cooks…
She had enjoyed a feast of Wei’s cooking so many times now that she would be able to recognize Wei’s cooking even if a thousand dishes were presented before her.
Her eyes inevitably turned a little misty. She took another bite and was sure now that Wei had cooked her dinner.
I cannot be wrong about this. No chef can make it exactly like Wei!
She clutched the chopsticks as her heart palpitated.
Is Wei here…?
Ruru noticed her acting strange and with a worried face, he tugged her.
”Huh? Oh Ruru! How is your burger? Is it delicious?”
His watery eyes shone, and he furiously nodded his head. “Yummy!!”
”Can I have a small bite?”
Ruru didn’t hesitate and offered the burger. He brought it near her mouth, and she crunched one bite.
It’s the same…it’s really the same. Wei has cooked this too! He is definitely here!
She sneakily looked around but couldn’t find him.
I see. Chang Fang must have told him about tonight’s dinner, and he cooked my food. Wait this means that the waiter and waitress…
They were definitely Assistant Fu and Yaya!
Her gaze softened. She had an urge to cry. It was after months that she got to enjoy the food made by Wei.
The food always felt so bland ever since I was trapped with this bastard…
But now she felt that she could eat to her heart’s content.
Alright! I am gonna order a lot of stuff and make full use of it this evening!
Qingqing saw her happily munching on her food, but she was too busy enjoying her own meal.
Suddenly, they heard Jiang Zhen coughing and choking. He drank a few sips of water and gritted his teeth. “Waiter!”
Everybody was puzzled.
It’s him again. Now, what is happening?
The waiter who apologized before immediately came. “Yes, Sir?”
Veins popped on his forehead. “What the hell is wrong with this food? It’s so fucking bitter! What have you put in exactly?”
Lihua sneered and whispered, “I wish it’s poison.”
He shot a dangerous stare at her, but she was unaffected. Instead her heart was bubbling with joy.
Ah, ah, ah! Did Wei do that on purpose?
Because there was nothing wrong with Jiang Hua and Ruru’s food.
Jiang Hua quickly had a taste. Her brows slightly knitted in confusion.
It’s not bitter though…
But she was too afraid to say otherwise and incur his wrath.
The waiter blinked. “Sir, I don’t understand…It’s cooked to perfection just like all the other dishes.”
He angrily laughed. “So you mean to say I am lying?”
He quickly shook his head. “Of course not, Sir! I am really sorry for the inconvenience. I will inform the chef and bring a new plate right away!”
