"Maxim's Restaurant, right? Okay, I'll be there in a bit." After saying that, Wang Ming hung up the phone, turned it off, went to bed, and went to sleep in one smooth motion.

The thought of that green tea bitch waiting there until the flowers wither made him feel unusually good.

"Senior Brother Ming? Senior Brother Ming?"

She wanted to ask about President Jiang, but the line went dead, so Zhang Yuanyuan had to hang up.

Although Wang Ming promised to come over right away, given Jiang Zong's experience, she felt inexplicably unreliable. However, considering that he had braved such heavy snow to pick her up from the bar after midnight last night, she figured he wouldn't stand her up today.

"Madam, how's the contact going?" the waiter asked as he approached.

"My friend said he'll be there soon, please give me a little more time," Zhang Yuanyuan said nervously.

However, twenty minutes later, Wang Ming also lost contact, and she was completely dumbfounded.

"Miss, it's closing time now. Will you be paying in cash or by card? If you don't have the money, I'll have to call the police and let them handle it."

At this point, the person speaking to her was no longer a waiter, but the restaurant's lobby manager, who issued an ultimatum without any politeness.

Zhang Yuanyuan almost collapsed to the ground as she looked at the lobby manager and made a pitiful plea.

"I... I really don't have that much money right now. Can I pay on credit? I... I'll leave my ID card and student ID here. I'll write an IOU. Please give me a few days. I promise I'll pay you back."

...

(Phew, that's the end of the green tea thing for now. Old Wang's tragedy in his past life has been completely rewritten. Even if green tea appears again in the future, it will only be mentioned lightly.)
