"Uncle, the tea and snacks in your teahouse are getting more and more expensive. I don't even have enough pocket money. You have to give me a discount later!" Seeing that Ye Xuan sat down, Jin Sailun couldn't help but complain.
"Sure, no problem. When you pay the bill later, I'll ask them to give you a 9% discount," Ye Xuan promised with a smile.
"Ah! Uncle, aren't you being too stingy? "Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Jin Sailun bared her little canine teeth at Ye Xuan and pretended to be angry.
"Alright, alright. You can order whatever you want to eat. This time, it's my treat." Ye Xuan stopped teasing the little girl and smiled.
"Really?" Jin Sailun's eyes lit up and looked at Ye Xuan with sparkling eyes.
"More real than pearls." Ye Xuan nodded.
"Haha, uncle, this is what you said. Then, I won't be polite. Don't be lazy when the time comes." Jin Sailun smiled mischievously and then waved at a waitress not far away.
"President, hello!" The waitress who walked over did not ask what Jin Sailun wanted to eat first. Instead, she bowed slightly to Ye Xuan who was sitting on the seat.
"Hello, this customer is my friend. Later, tell Manager Zheng to put the money for their meal on my account." Ye Xuan nodded at the waitress and instructed.
"Alright!" The waitress nodded and looked at Jin Sailun and Zheng Xiujing on the table strangely. She knew both of them, especially Jin Sailun who seemed to be very familiar with the president. She took out a menu and turned to look at Jin Sailun. "Dear customer, what would you like to eat?"
Jin Sailun bared her teeth at Ye Xuan first, then looked down at the menu in her hand and said quickly, "I want to eat chicken ball buns, lotus seed bun with egg yolk, barbecued pork bun, mara cake, radish cake, wolfberry osmanthus cake, flour sausage, shrimp dumplings, soup dumplings, glutinous rice chicken, cotton chicken, fresh shrimp tofu roll, and a fresh mushroom fish maw. Alright, I'll order these for the time being. Xiujing, what would you like to eat?"
Seeing Jin Sailun's unsatisfied expression, it was not only the waitress who was in charge of taking orders. Even Zheng Xiujing, who had been indifferent all this while, opened her mouth slightly. Just a few dishes? Zheng Xiujing really wanted to leave this place and pretend that she did not know her. This was too embarrassing!
Glancing at Ye Xuan, whose expression did not change at all, Zheng Xiujing blinked her big eyes and shook her head at Jin Sailun. "It's fine. I think these are enough for us."
Actually, there was something in Zheng Xiujing's heart that she did not say. "Enough for us to eat for a few meals."
Ye Xuan did not care about Jin Sailun ordering so many dishes. He nodded at the waitress and said, "Bring up another serving of Pu 'er tea."
"Alright, President!" The waitress nodded and took note of it. Then, she bowed slightly and turned around to prepare.
"Uncle, I've ordered so many dishes. Do you feel bad?" Jin Sailun smiled slyly at Ye Xuan. "However, it's useless even if you regret it. I've already ordered these dishes, and you've already said what you just said. "
"I won't regret it. I'm just afraid that you'll be the one regretting it later." Ye Xuan's lips curled up slightly.
Seeing Ye Xuan's smile, Jin Sailun's heart skipped a beat. She curled her lips and said, "Why would I regret it?"
"Because the teahouse has a rule. In order not to waste food, customers have to eat at least 90% of the snacks they ordered. Otherwise, they'll be fined 10 times the amount. "Ye Xuan laughed.
Jin Sailun glared at him. "How is that possible? Why didn't I know there was such a rule in the teahouse? "
"Because this rule was just added by me, the President." Ye Xuan smiled slyly.
"Ah! Uncle! "
Zheng Xiujing was joking around with Jin Sailun. Perhaps because she was not familiar with them, she just sat at the side and smiled silently most of the time. Most of the time, she just sat at the side and smiled without saying a word. Of course, most of the time, she was also in a daze.
Soon, more than a dozen kinds of desserts were served one by one, filling the small table. Looking at these desserts that looked, smelled, and tasted good, even Zheng Xiujing couldn't help but swallow her saliva secretly. Jin Sailun didn't even bother to swallow his saliva, and after a greeting, he began to eat.
"I can't eat anymore, Uncle. I can't eat anymore." An hour later, Jin Sailun leaned back in his chair and touched his obviously round belly inelegantly. Even Zheng Xiujing, who had a cold expression on her face, ate a lot. A quarter of the snacks on the table went into her stomach, but she didn't end up like Jin Sailun. This was quite a miracle.
After eating and drinking to their fill, the two of them rested for a while and had no choice but to bid farewell to Ye Xuan. After all, they were both artists. It was rare for them to squeeze out time to drink tea together, but they still had to make a living. The Korean entertainment industry had always been famous for oppressing and exploiting artists. The two of them still had a lot of work arranged by the company waiting for them to go back.
"Thank you very much for your hospitality today, Uncle!" Before the two of them left, Jin Sailun suddenly changed from a naughty little girl to a well-behaved little girl. She stood up straight and bowed slightly to Ye Xuan to thank him.
"You're welcome. It's just a meal." Ye Xuan smiled and waved his hand.
"Thank you very much for your hospitality, Ye Xuan XI!" Zheng Xiujing on the side also bowed slightly to thank him. Although she was born in the United States, she had lived in Seoul for more than ten years. Naturally, she knew that treating people was a very serious thing in Korean society. So after eating, she thanked him. After more than an hour of contact, Zheng Xiujing began to recognize this uncle of Jin Sailun.
"Welcome to come again next time, Zheng Xiujing XI!" Ye Xuan smiled.
"Then the next time I come, can I also eat for free like Sailun?" Suddenly, Zheng Xiujing blinked and looked at Ye Xuan.
However, when she said this, Zheng Xiujing already regretted it in her heart. After all, she was not Jin Sailun. Today was the first time they met, and she didn't say much to Ye Xuan from beginning to end. It was really rude of her to make such an unreasonable request now.
Hearing Zheng Xiujing's words, Ye Xuan was stunned, but he quickly responded with a smile. "That can't be done, but if Zheng Xiujing XI can come again, I can give you a VIP card that can give you a 20% discount."
Ye Xuan wasn't the kind of person who couldn't move when he saw a beautiful woman. Although a small meal was nothing to him, business was business. He had clearly told Zheng Jingxian that he wouldn't intervene in the business of the store. If he casually promised to let people pay for free, it was fine once or twice, but if it was too many times, wouldn't it destroy the operation of the teahouse? This kind of thing was not something Ye Xuan was willing to do.
"Okay, thank you. Goodbye!" Although she also felt that Ye Xuan was right not to agree, after hearing Ye Xuan's refusal, Zheng Xiujing didn't know why there was a faint sense of loss in her heart.
