Zhu kept thinking about the way the restaurant manager had just greeted Huo Yao with the utmost respect.

  This restaurant was the top favorite of the local high society. Its services aside, the owner was also very mysterious and no one knew who it was.

  Why did the manager greet Huo Yao the moment he saw her? Judging from the manager’s attitude, he sounded far more reverent than normal.

  Zhu looked at Huo Yao quizzically. He had a feeling that something was not what he expected.

  Chen Ming glanced at the restaurant manager mildly. “This guy is so oblivious. How could he become the supervisor? From the looks of it, you really need to rinse your eyes, Mr. Xu.”


  The restaurant manager was so embarrassed that he did not even dare to raise his head. “I am so sorry. It was my fault. I will handle it immediately.”


  People in the management group chat kept saying something about Miss Huo. Whenever she showed up at an establishment, the people working there would end up getting raises and promotions. However, he was out of luck today.

  The restaurant manager could forget about a promotion and raise. He would count his lucky stars if he did not lose his job.

  The restaurant supervisor stumbled the moment he heard the manager saying that he would take care of the problem.

  If he got fired by the restaurant, his days in the capital were numbered.

  He had wanted to do Song Qi a simple favor. Why did things end up this way?

  Song Qi kept track of the time. She reckoned Zhu ought to have driven the thugs standing outside the door by now, so she pursed her lips and stood up.

  Song Qi headed toward the door and turned to look at Song Ning halfway with a cocky look on her face. “Ning, aren’t you worried that your men might get driven out of the restaurant?”

  Song Ning raised her head slightly. “I suggest you keep that concern for yourself.”


  Song Qi sneered. Her sister was being pretentious again. Song Ning had warned Song Qi about embarrassing herself and now this. Did Song Ning think she was the Queen? Did she think she had a lot of power?

  Song Qi veered her eyes speechlessly.

  The private room door suddenly opened.

  Song Qi was startled by the commotion. The moment she saw the bodyguards still blatantly standing outside, she looked exasperated.

  What was Zhu doing? What were those bodyguards doing standing there?

  Song Qi frowned. When she saw Chen Ming standing beside Huo Yao, she automatically felt threatened. Chen Ming was clearly far scarier than those bodyguards combined.

  Song Qi quickly composed herself and disregarded Chen Ming. She looked at Huo Yao perplexedly. Song Zhi clearly mentioned earlier that Huo Yao had refused to come.

  What was she doing here now?

  When Song Ning heard the commotion, she could not help feeling surprised when she saw her daughter here. She quickly stood up and walked over to her. “Why are you here?”


  For some reason, Song Ning felt a little sheepish when she made eye contact with Huo Yao.

  Huo Yao raised her brow.
