Chapter 736: Cancel together

~7 min read 1,361 words

The lobby was quiet, and the entire space, except for the waiter and the masters at the board front, only had Shen Ci and Zhu Li.

Qiu Keying called out like this, and the two looked sideways subconsciously, and the waiter also greeted her for the first time.

"What's wrong with you?" Qiu Keying looked at the waiter with displeasure: "I called several times and no one answered."

The waiter served with a smile and explained patiently: "Sorry, according to the regulations, our service staff cannot be too close to the guest's dining private room to ensure the privacy of the guest's dining. There is a service bell on the table in the private room. If you need to call us, you can press the service bell."

Qiu Keying curled her lips impatiently and reached out: "This thing? There is no reaction at all!"

"I'm really sorry, maybe it's out of power. Please wait a moment, I'll handle it for you right away."

The waiter was still very enthusiastic and professional, took the service bell, and went to change the battery. However, Qiu Keying caught a glimpse of Shen Ci at the board front position when she turned around.

It's not that she could notice it; there were two more people in the entire lobby, which was really eye-catching.

Shen Ci

"Why are you here?"

Qiu Keying was slightly startled. She walked a few steps toward Shen Ci, eyed the sashimi boat in front of her, and couldn't help but sneer: "Didn't you acquire 'Yunshang Tiangong'? Why aren't you eating at your own place, but running over to 'Shuiyun Jian' instead?"

"What? Do you realize yourself that 'Yunshang Tiangong' can't compare to this place?"

Without waiting for Shen Ci to speak, she turned and walked away with a haughty expression, muttering to herself: "It's truly laughable. Can't even book a proper private room, so you're just sitting at the counter eating a meal while being grilled by the heat."

"Do you know her?" Zhu Li came back to her senses and asked Shen Ci curiously.

Shen Ci scooped up some sea urchin and shoved it into her mouth, explaining without concealment: "My ex-boyfriend's current girlfriend."

"No wonder." Zhu Li looked relieved; no wonder the air was so thick with gunpowder.

Shen Ci wouldn't let such a silly girl affect her dining experience, and she continued to eat with great relish.

Qiu Keying, on the other hand, who had appeared triumphant and haughty, was fuming with rage the moment she turned away, returning to her private room in a huff.

Seeing her expression was off, Li Xiao couldn't help but show concern: "What's wrong, Keying? Did the waiter make you angry?"

"Small issue, the waiter already changed the battery, no need to be angry."

"Of course I'm not angry at the waiter!" Qiu Keying pouted and said: "Do you know who I just saw outside?"

Li Xiao looked at her, a specific image immediately forming in his mind, and he blurted out: "Shen Ci?"

"How did you know?" Qiu Keying was slightly surprised.

Li Xiao put on an indifferent posture and smiled: "There aren't many people who can make you this angry. She came to eat Japanese food too?"

Qiu Keying nodded.

Li Xiao instantly fell into memories. He still remembered that Shen Ci loved Japanese food, and the first time she ate it was when he took her; she had said Japanese cuisine was too expensive and she had always been reluctant to eat it.

Even the look of amazement on her face when she took her first bite of salmon was still vivid in his mind; everything seemed to have happened just yesterday.

Only, thinking about it now, he could no longer see through which of Shen Ci's words were true or which expressions were real. It was as if he had never known her at all.

"But it's quite funny, she and her friend were sitting all alone at the counter in the lobby; I guess her status wasn't high enough to be given a private room." Qiu Keying didn't notice Li Xiao's expression and was still fuming to herself.

Li Xiao came back to his senses and comforted her softly: "Don't take it to heart. Let's just eat our own meal; besides, we're sitting in a private room and can't see them anyway."

Only then did Qiu Keying manage a smile: "Then you should eat more; the quality of this sashimi really does look excellent."

About an hour and a half later, the two finished their meal and came out of the private room.

"Did you enjoy your meal, Miss Qiu? Are you satisfied with today's dishes? If there are any shortcomings, please let us know, and we will improve." The waiter immediately brought their shoes over and asked about their dining experience.

Qiu Keying said with a casual attitude: "It's alright. The sashimi quality is good, it's just that the tatami cushions were a bit hard; my butt hurts from sitting for so long. You could prepare two softer cushions. Everything else is fine."

"Understood, we will record your feedback. We look forward to your next visit."

Coming out from inside, they still had to pass through the lobby. Shen Ci and Zhu Li hadn't finished eating yet; mainly because the two were eating slowly and kept chatting.

Qiu Keying subconsciously looked at them and found that Shen Ci was still there. She couldn't help but hook her arm through Li Xiao's in a show of defiance, lifting her chin slightly like a noble peacock.

Li Xiao noticed that the expression on Shen Ci's face had also turned three degrees colder, clearly still holding a grudge against Shen Ci because of the artificial intelligence program.

And Shen Ci naturally saw them too, but she only gave a light glance, and then acted as if she hadn't seen them at all.

This encounter was still peaceful, with no one intentionally looking for trouble. Who would have thought that just as Qiu Keying was about to step out of the restaurant, the waiter suddenly chased after them: "Miss Qiu, please wait a moment."

Qiu Keying stopped in her tracks and turned around: "What is it?"

The waiter subconsciously glanced at Li Xiao beside Qiu Keying before speaking: "I'm sorry, Miss Qiu, this meal needs to be paid for on-site."

"Pay on-site? You can just deduct it directly from my card. I still have a few dozen in my card balance, right?"

After speaking, Qiu Keying lifted her foot to leave, but was once again blocked by the waiter.

She showed impatience, and the waiter spoke before she could get angry: "Miss Qiu, your membership card has had its status revoked, so you need to pay this bill separately."

"What kind of joke are you playing? My membership status has been revoked?" Qiu Keying's eyes widened, her face full of disbelief.

Li Xiao also furrowed his brows tightly: "What's going on? Who allowed you to do this?"

"I, it's us..."

The waiter stuttered, not daring to speak, while Shen Ci had already walked up close, looking at the two with a smile as she asked: "It was me. Do the two of you have any questions?"

Both of them looked at Shen Ci, their expressions more dramatic than the last.

"You?" Qiu Keying was shocked: "How dare you?"

She then glared fiercely at the waiter on the side: "I am a platinum member here, spending a few dozen here a year, and this is how you treat your high-level members? Revoking my membership just like that?"

The waiter remained silent; after all, the boss was right here.

"What do you mean by not speaking? I am a platinum member here, and my father is a diamond member here. We are..."

"What is your father's name?" Shen Ci interrupted Qiu Keying, looking at her as she asked.

Qiu Keying frowned, glaring viciously at Shen Ci.

Shen Ci pursed her lips: "It doesn't matter, we can always look it up in our system."

Saying this, Shen Ci looked at Zhu Li: "Revoke her father's membership as well."
