Protagonist:

Lu Feng

"Sir, sorry to disturb you, may I ask if there's anything about our restaurant you're dissatisfied with?"

Waiter Xiao Lin looked up at the customer before her, asking in a very respectful tone.

But as she spoke, her speaking speed unconsciously quickened considerably.

There was no helping it; she had already been rejected by so many customers before, and she worried this customer would be like those previous ones, leaving in a hurry before she could finish speaking.

The customer who had been stopped had a very sturdy build, broad shoulders and narrow waist, his whole body's muscles firm and taut.

This person was also an old customer of the Lu Family Restaurant, a muscular man named Zhao Yan who worked as a fitness instructor at a gym near Food Street.

Don't look at how he always seemed ready to throw people out at the slightest provocation when someone caused trouble at Lu Family Restaurant before.

But actually, Zhao Yan's personality was still quite gentle, and he basically rarely lost his temper on normal days.

Moreover, seeing that the waiter Xiao Lin before him was very beautiful made his tone become even gentler.

"Your restaurant is quite good, there's no problem."

Zhao Yan smiled and waved his hand: "It's me myself having something to do and needing to leave, it has nothing to do with your restaurant."

Seeing that Zhao Yan seemed quite willing to talk with her, Xiao Lin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in her heart.

She hurriedly showed a gentle smile, then asked very politely: "Sir, after coming to our restaurant today, how do you feel about our dining environment here? If you have any opinions or suggestions, we very much welcome you to bring them up, and we will improve in time in the future, so that when you visit next time you will feel even more satisfied."

"No opinions, no opinions."

Zhao Yan smiled and shook his head, speaking in a very sincere tone: "To be honest, your service here is quite attentive, the environment is also quite good, your decoration here is much more luxurious than the other shops on this street, I've also just tasted the flavor of the food you make, I think it's still quite to my appetite, in short, everything is quite good, I'm very satisfied."

"Thank you for your affirmation of our restaurant."

Waiter Xiao Lin bowed slightly, a perfectly measured smile on her face, her voice clear and sweet and gentle.

Her gaze swept over the dining table Zhao Yan had just sat at not far away, and she continued asking: "I just saw that the steak set meal you ordered hasn't been finished yet; if it's convenient, could you tell me the reason you want to leave without finishing it?"

"What, does your place also have a rule of blacklisting customers who leave without finishing their meal, and no longer receiving them in the future?"

Zhao Yan frowned and couldn't help but ask a question.

"Blacklist?"

Xiao Lin was stunned for a moment, then immediately shook her head: "No, our restaurant has never had such a rule."

"Oh, then it's fine."

Zhao Yan grinned, speaking in a very hearty tone: "There's nothing inconvenient to say either, it's just that today the group notified that Boss Lu is opening early this week, and also launched a new dish, I won't say more, miss, I'm going over there first."

After speaking, he turned around and strode away in a hurry toward the restaurant gate.

But just as he walked out of the restaurant and glanced toward Lu Family Restaurant, he suddenly stopped again, his brow tightly furrowed.

Zhao Yan clicked his tongue, a helpless expression on his face, then turned around and walked back slowly into the restaurant.

Waiter Xiao Lin over there still stood motionless not far from the restaurant door, repeatedly replaying in her mind what Zhao Yan had just said.

She was just wondering what kind of big shot this Boss Lu was, how he could take all the customers away at once, when she just happened to see Zhao Yan turn around and walk back to the restaurant.

Xiao Lin hurriedly went up to him, her eyes full of doubt, and couldn't help but ask: "Sir, weren't you just saying you were going to that Boss Lu's place? Why did you come back?"

"Ai, don't mention it, even if I go now I won't make it in time."

Zhao Yan sighed helplessly, speaking very regretfully: "These guys, as soon as they heard Boss Lu is launching a new dish today, and it's limited quantity, they ran faster than each other! The line is super long now, even if I go I probably won't be able to eat the new dish, I can only sit and wait for others to describe the taste..."

Waiter Xiao Lin stood to one side, listening to Zhao Yan's words, and was confused again in her mind.

In an instant, countless possible guesses about this "Boss Lu" in Zhao Yan's mouth appeared in her mind.

After thinking it over, she chose the most likely answer and cautiously asked: "May I ask... that Boss Lu you just mentioned, is he which celebrity in our Jiang City?"

In her understanding, being able to attract so many people at once, and even make customers willingly give up their unfinished steak to leave, only a celebrity could have such great influence.

"Celebrity?"

Zhao Yan was stunned for a moment, then muttered: "Speaking of it, Boss Lu seems to have been on a TV program before, but he doesn't count as a celebrity, right?"

Then he suddenly realized, the beautiful waitress before him seemed not to know who Boss Lu was, and seemed to have misunderstood something.

Zhao Yan smiled, reached out and pointed toward Lu Family Restaurant next door: "Boss Lu isn't a celebrity, he's the boss of that Lu Family Restaurant next door to you!"

Xiao Lin followed the direction Zhao Yan pointed, looking outside through the restaurant's glass window.

She saw that in front of Lu Family Restaurant next door, whose gate was tightly closed and hadn't opened for business yet, there was now a line like a long dragon.

The line extended from the door of Lu Family Restaurant all the way back, and she couldn't see the end of the line at a glance.

Even more shocking to her was that even now people were continuously and hurriedly walking past her own restaurant's door, seemingly about to go continue lining up at the back of that line over there.

My god, is that restaurant next door that popular? So many people going over there to line up for a meal?

No, that restaurant clearly hasn't opened for business yet?

That restaurant next door, just what kind of charm does it have?

Xiao Lin had lived this long, and it was the first time she had seen so many people lining up this long just to wait for a restaurant to open.

Although her face still maintained the smile expression a waiter should have, looking very calm on the surface, inside her heart had already been stirred up by stormy waves.

"Okay, thank you for your answer, sir."

Xiao Lin took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the waves rising in her heart, tried hard to keep her voice calm, and looked at Zhao Yan asking: "Then... that half piece of steak you didn't finish just now, do you need it packed for you?"

"Forget it, anyway even if I go now I can't eat today's new dish, I'll finish eating the remaining half piece of steak before going over to line up."

Zhao Yan shook his head, speaking with a very regretful expression.
