"Engineering is very profitable. You must have earned a lot in a year!" Xiao Ran's husband sneered in his heart. When he heard his answer, he felt that he was just pretending. He did not even dare to answer his question directly. It was obvious that he was guilty and perfunctory.
"Not much. Last year, I almost went bankrupt and was forced to commit suicide." Shen Changqing laughed.
Xiao Ran's husband also smiled and did not say anything. What was there to say to such a pretentious old man? He was probably just a small contractor with a few people under him. He had only seen migrant workers who failed to ask for money from big bosses and committed suicide. This was the first time he had heard of someone being forced to commit suicide by his workers.
Bankrupt? How dare he use the word 'bankrupt' when he only had a little money? Did he go to school? Did he know how to write the word 'bankrupt'?
In the Mercedes-Benz in front.
Xiao Ran was talking loudly. "You know that Yipin Vegetarian Restaurant, right? It's the best restaurant in Beijing. The membership fee for the most ordinary member is 10 million. Let's go there."
Yun Jinping smiled. "Sorry to have let you guys spend so much."
Xiao Ran said indifferently, "It's not a big deal. It's not much. The basic expenses are only 100,000 yuan."
Her husband had borrowed a membership card from a friend in Beijing and was prepared to bring this group of country bumpkins to the best and most luxurious restaurant to broaden their horizons and let them know what the upper class was.
"It's very expensive," Yun Jinping said.
Xiao Ran said, "When we go out to eat, it's about the same price. It's not expensive. Of course, we have to go to the best place to treat our old classmates."
Shen Xi sat in the front passenger seat, and only three people could sit in the back. Xiao Ran, who was in the back, had been chattering non-stop since she got in the car. She felt disgusted listening to her.
Flaunting her wealth!
This woman was crazily flaunting her wealth in front of her? Was she crazy?
Moreover, every word of his was filled with arrogance and superiority, which made people feel uncomfortable listening to him.
Xiao Ran's daughter also glanced at Shen Xi from time to time and realized that she had not spoken. She would only answer her mother when she asked. It was only a simple "Yes" or "Oh." These perfunctory words made her feel disgusted.
Who was she? She was just a country bumpkin. Did she think she was so great just because she was beautiful? Wasn't he just a pauper?
Along the way, Xiao Ran kept bragging to Yun Jinping about how much she ate and drank. She was already sick of eating the most common dishes in their house. She also mentioned that the high-end clothes and bags were all flown in from abroad.
Shen Xi felt nauseous when she heard this. She was deeply moved that her Madam Yun's personality was too good. She could stand such a classmate who had no style at all. Real rich people would not bother to flaunt their wealth in such a public manner.
Those who flaunted their wealth crazily and wanted the whole world to know that they were rich were considered nouveau riche.
When they were about to get out of the car, Yun Jinping asked Xiao Ran, "How much is the fare? I'll transfer it to you. You treated me to a meal, so I can't let you pay for the fare too."
Xiao Ran pretended to be angry. "You're treating me like an outsider. I said I'll treat you to a meal, and I want a package service. I'll pay for it. It's not much, only 5,000 yuan for a round trip."
Shen Xi's eyelids twitched. This guy was really making use of every opportunity to show off!
The car stopped at the gate of Yipin Vegetarian House.
After getting out of the car, the group of people entered Yipin Vegetarian House.
Xiao Ran entered the hall, directly called a waiter, and handed over her membership card. "Please give us the best and most expensive private room."
"Madam, I'm sorry, but the private rooms are full. Please wait over there for a while. We'll have a special waiter to serve you," the waiter replied politely with a smile.
"What?" Xiao Ran suddenly raised her voice. "I'm a member. You'd better prepare a private room for me now, or I'll complain about you!"
The waiter still smiled politely. "The people sitting and waiting over there are all members of our restaurant."
"Then how will you arrange a private room? How much will it cost?" After being rejected, Xiao Ran only felt that she had lost face. She must win it back.
"This is not a matter of money. Members have to reserve a private room a month in advance. If you want to eat immediately, you can find a Supreme VIP member of our restaurant. Supreme VIP members don't need to reserve a private room. Ask him to reserve a private room for you." The waiter was experienced and knowledgeable, so he politely dealt with her unreasonable pestering.
"Wait for me." Xiao Ran felt that she had lost her face. She went back angrily and looked at her husband. "Honey, do you have any Supreme VIP friends? That waiter is so snobbish that he didn't reserve a private room for me."
The people waiting around looked at her as if she was a clown. Where did this country bumpkin come from? She didn't even know the rules of Yipin Vegetarian House. They all felt that it was degrading to be a VIP member with such a person.
Xiao Ran's husband had only heard that this restaurant was the best in the capital, so he begged someone to borrow a card. He thought that it was to support his wife's face and show her superiority. It was already good enough that he could borrow a card to come in. How could he borrow a VIP card?
"It's okay. Let's wait. We're not in a hurry." Yun Jinping gently persuaded.
"No, this restaurant is too much. I'll go and argue with them." Xiao Ran didn't listen to anyone. Hearing Yun Jinping's words, she felt more and more that the waiter made her lose face. She wanted to get back her face, so she turned around and went back.
Xiao Ran's husband and daughter also followed her.
Not long after, they quarreled with the waiter. Xiao Ran was a shrew. She held the VIP card and said that she would complain if they didn't reserve a private room for them. She wanted to teach them a lesson.
Yun Jinping was a good-tempered person, but she couldn't stand it. She stood up and persuaded her to stop.
Shen Xi looked at Shen Changqing and Yu Yuanxi and shrugged.
Shen Changqing coughed softly. "Why don't I get a Supreme VIP card and we can go and eat now?"
Shen Xi: "What a waste of money. How many times can we come here in a year?"
If they really wanted to eat, they could just call and ask them to send it home.
Shen Changqing: "But they keep quarreling. I'm afraid that the security guards will come later and chase them out. They are your mother's classmates. It's embarrassing."
Shen Xi laughed out loud. This family of clowns. Anyway, they wouldn't meet again after this.
At the front desk, Xiao Ran's family was still quarreling. Xiao Ran's husband had already started to threaten Yipin Vegetarian Restaurant.
"What's going on?" The elevator opened and someone walked out. Seeing the noisy scene in front of him, he was unhappy.
"Mr. Kunlun, this lady is a VIP member. She wants to eat in a private room now. I've explained to her that she can't. She has to follow the restaurant's rules. She needs to wait in line. She doesn't want to," the waiter explained.
"You're the manager here? We spend 10 million RMB a year as a member. Is this the treatment we get? "Xiao Ran pointed at him angrily and questioned.
"Arrange the best private room for them. All the expenses today will be free of charge," Kunlun said.
Xiao Ran heard the satisfactory answer and glared at the waiter who had been trying to reason with her. She looked like a villain who got what she wanted. "Did you hear that? Your manager here is so sensible. "
Kunlun's face darkened. Where did this idiot come from? He saw Mrs. Shen talking to her and thought that she was Mrs. Shen's friend. That was why he gave her face, okay?
"Your restaurant's attitude towards customers is not good. You should fire her," Xiao Ran pointed at the waiter and said to Kunlun.
Kunlun didn't even look at her. He walked straight to Yun Jinping and bowed slightly. He said respectfully, "Mrs. Shen, we didn't know that you would come. It's our fault. The best private room is ready. Come with me!"
