Chapter 629: Chapter 624: Paying the Bill
“That lady said it was you who offered to pay for her bill today, and we had someone hear your conversation at the time. That’s why we didn’t stop her when she left.
If you hadn’t said you would pay for her from the beginning, we would have definitely asked her to pay for herself and wouldn’t let her go.” The cashier knew Gu Beilin’s character well.
She relied on her family’s wealth and power, bullying others was a common occurrence. So the cashier cooperated with Qin Xue to teach her a lesson, letting her know not everyone could be trampled on by her.
“I said it at the time because…” Gu Beilin looked at the onlookers around her, how could she say she just wanted to humiliate Qin Xue and never planned to actually pay for her?
Gu Beilin stared at all the important-looking people around and couldn’t bring herself to say it, otherwise, her family would know and surely not let her off the hook.
She had offended Ms. Nangong last time and was heavily punished. If she caused trouble in the Nangong’s territory again, she would definitely suffer the consequences.
Thinking of this, Gu Beilin could only suppress her anger and ask resentfully, “How much is the total?”
“Ms. Gu, the total for both bills is US$ 138.” The cashier smiled at Gu Beilin, waiting for her to pay.
“What? How could it be that much?” Gu Beilin couldn’t believe what she had heard.
“How much did you think it would be, Ms. Gu?” The cashier calmly looked at Gu Beilin and asked.
Now, who in the Imperial Capital doesn’t know about their Yuxuan Restaurant? It’s a unique and prestigious establishment that people are proud to visit.
To see Gu Beilin making such a face over a hundred dollars, it was obvious that the Gus hadn’t raised her well.
“I, I didn’t have any expectations. Take this money,” Gu Beilin listened to the whispers around her and finally realized that she must have made a big fool of herself.
“Ms. Gu, here’s your change, and these are the receipts for both orders. Please keep them safe. Thank you very much for your patronage, and we hope to see you again next time. Thank you!” The cashier’s polite words poured out as if they were free.
It choked Gu Beilin so much that she couldn’t let out her anger, trembling with rage.
“Linlin, let’s go,” the girl who came with Gu Beilin, seeing the situation, gently pulled Gu Beilin’s hand and whispered.
“Let’s go.” Gu Beilin wanted to shake off the girl’s hand, but she couldn’t. This girl was not someone she could offend; on the contrary, she needed to please her. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have brought her to Yuxuan Restaurant.
Gu Beilin had heard that the pastries at Yuxuan Restaurant were delicious and hard to come by. Their daily pastries were always different, and she had heard that this girl particularly liked the egg yolk pastry from Yuxuan.
So, she seized this opportunity and had booked the private room many days in advance.
As the rumors had it, the girl loved the egg yolk pastry, and they had chatted very happily. Who would have thought that she would have such bad luck and not only run into Qin Xue but also be played by her? She would definitely take revenge; no one had ever dared treat her Gu Beilin this way before.
Gu Beilin seemed to forget that she had been dealt with by Nangong Beiying last time.
After Gu Beilin and her companion left, Qin Xue, holding her child, and Chu Molin came out.
They had watched the drama from behind the crowd with great interest.
Qin Xue had thought that Gu Beilin would make a scene, but it was easily resolved by the woman who came with her. This woman seemed extraordinary.
Just on their first day in the Imperial Capital, they were already in so much trouble. They could already imagine how lively their future would be.
