Chapter 3339: May I Ask Your Elder’s Name?
Editor: Atlas Studios
Their private restaurant was located in the bustling alley of a tourist attraction. There were many tourists here, so it was inevitable that a tourist who had walked the wrong way would stumble on this place and take it as an ordinary place.
Qiao Nian looked very young. She was wearing a baseball cap and her face could not be seen as she had her head lowered looking at her cell phone as she entered. She looked like a ‘tourist’ who had taken the wrong path.
It seemed this was not the first time the waitress had dealt with such a situation. Her tone was polite as she said, “If you go out from here, there are many restaurants at the end of the left-hand side. There’s roast duck, supper, all sorts of cuisine. You can take two more steps…”
She spoke politely and did not say anything like ‘you can’t afford it’.
However, her performance from the beginning to the end still caused discomfort.
Qiao Nian did not notice her expression. She had just found Ye Lan on her contact list when she noticed someone was talking to her.
She looked up and said good-naturedly, “My elders have reserved a table.”
Only now did the waitress look her straight in the eye. She did not sound convinced. “Alright. May I know the name of your elder?”
She was still blocking Qiao Nian, not letting her enter.
They were on high alert and did not give anyone a chance to slip in.
“Her surname is Ye.”
The girl’s voice was casual, as if she did not realize the other party was making things difficult for her.
The waitress was a little surprised. “Ye?”
There were many people with the surname Ye in Beijing, but only one guest with the surname Ye had booked a room at their private restaurant today!
She remembered it very clearly.
Due to the arrival of this esteemed guest, the lady boss, who had not cooked for a long time, flew back from overseas. She did not make any travel plans and specially prepared the ingredients early.
Although the waitress didn’t know the other party’s identity, based on the lady boss’s reaction, she could roughly guess the guests’ identities.
Therefore, when Qiao Nian said ‘Ye’, she couldn’t help but size up the girl in front of her.
She was quite pretty.
It was undeniable that she had some capital.
But that customer was not a man. She was a woman in her fifties!
“Forget it, I’ll call her.” Seeing the waitress was unwilling to move aside, Qiao Nian couldn’t be bothered to make a fuss and called Ye Lan.
The call was picked up after two rings.
“Nian Nian?”
“Aunt Ye, I’m here.”
Qiao Nian glanced at the waitress staring at her suspiciously and pursed her lips. “I’m outside. Please come pick me up.”
“Okay.”
Ye Lan did not ask why she did not come in directly.
She hung up and said to the other person in the private room, “Dad, Nian Nian is here. She doesn’t know the place. I’ll go out and pick her up.”This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
This was the largest room in the private restaurant. Usually, the boss wouldn’t let anyone use it. Only a few esteemed people could use this private room.
Old Master Ye had known the boss here for more than 20 years.
Their families had been acquainted since the older generation. After the boss of the older generation passed on, his son and daughter-in-law took over this private restaurant, and Old Master Ye often came to patronize.
Every time he came, the boss would specially come over to exchange a few pleasantries.
This time was no exception.
The boss of the private restaurant happened to be talking to Old Master Ye at this moment.
He was a smart person. Every time he talked to Old Master Ye, he would talk about interesting things from the past and recall Old Master Ye’s young appearance.
Old Master Ye was also happy to give face to his old friend’s son. He knew the other party was trying to curry favor with him, but he was still willing to humor him and not let the atmosphere turn cold.
