What a small world!

When you go out to eat, you might run into Ren Zhaodi.

Judging from her attire, is she working as a waitress in a state-run restaurant?

Ren Zhaodi's face also darkened the moment she saw Lin Zhaoyue.

"I'll ask the chef to make your signature dishes a little milder, since my daughter-in-law isn't in a good position to eat anything too salty during her pregnancy," Hua Xiuyun said directly.

Seeing that Ren Zhaodi showed no sign of leaving, Hua Xiuyun frowned. "Hey? My daughter-in-law is hungry. What are you standing there for? Hurry up and go!"

“This is a restaurant. Every dish our chef makes tastes exactly the same. Your high standards are clearly just nitpicking. Why don’t you go to another restaurant?” Ren Zhaodi said reluctantly.

Could Lin Zhaoyue be deliberately trying to cause trouble for the female lead? She's so scheming!

Judging from Lin Zhaoyue's reaction, she clearly just found out the female lead was here. Besides, Lin Zhaoyue often comes here to eat, so there's nothing wrong with that, right?

[Exactly, why do I feel like the female lead is the one causing trouble? Hua Xiuyun's requests were all correct; pregnant women should eat a light diet.]

[If you want something light, go home and eat. Why make things difficult for others here?!]

Of course, you should spend money according to your heart. I just made a small request, it's not difficult, is it?

[...] Seeing that the comments were starting to get heated, Lin Zhaoyue's eyes hurt from all the noise.

"What kind of attitude is this? We came here to eat, to spend money, and your attitude is terrible!"

Hua Xiuyun said sternly, "Find someone else!"

"Don't think you're so great just because you have some money. Our shop is open for business, and we can choose not to do business with you."

Ren Zhaodi disliked Hua Xiuyun and her ilk the most for their arrogance and their tendency to throw money around.

What era are we living in? Everyone is equal!

Even if she's just working in the store, she still has human rights.

Ren Zhaodi raised her chin and looked at Hua Xiuyun arrogantly.

Hua Xiuyun stared at her for a while, then was so speechless that she laughed in exasperation. Could this person be out of their mind?

She just brought her daughter-in-law over for a meal, that's all.

Instead, they ended up getting a lecture from others.

Hua Xiuyun slammed her hand on the table. "Bring your boss here! You, an employee, don't have the final say. I want to see if your boss will do business with me."

"Who do you think you are? You think I'll just call the boss? Well, our boss is busy!"

Ren Zhaodi raised her voice a few decibels, deliberately picking a fight, just to prevent Lin Zhaoyue from enjoying the meal.

Lin Zhaoyue originally belonged to the Lin family. If she hadn't married Jiang Jingzhou, she would have gone to the countryside long ago.

She still acts like a spoiled young lady, showing no sign of restraint whatsoever.

Ren Zhaodi continued to lecture Lin Zhaoyue at the top of her lungs, "You need to remember who you are. Don't think that just because you married a good man, you can continue to act like a spoiled young lady! Be careful that someone reports you and you'll still slink away to the countryside. Even if the Jiang family protects you, they'll still dump you when they see you jeopardizing Jiang Jingzhou's future."

A sharp slap.

Endure until you can't endure it any longer, then there's no need to endure anymore.

Hua Xiuyun didn't need her daughter-in-law to lift a finger; she directly "rewarded" her with a slap!

Ren Zhaodi is simply insane!

"It's none of your business how my daughter-in-law is treated. Where's the boss? Is he dead? Can't you hear this commotion?" Hua Xiuyun scolded angrily. She took a deep breath and turned to comfort Lin Zhaoyue, telling her not to be angry, "You just need to sit here, Mom will get revenge for you!"

Lin Zhaoyue raised her hand and placed it on her stomach; her mother-in-law was afraid she would get angry.

"How could you hit someone?! I'm going to report you!"

Ren Zhaodi covered her face and accused him.

"Go! You can go now, I want to see what you can do!" Hua Xiuyun said, hands on her hips, furious. "My daughter-in-law and I just came here to eat. My daughter-in-law is pregnant and can't eat salty food, so what's wrong with asking the chef to make it milder? Is that making things difficult for you or for anyone else?!"

Hua Xiuyun is not afraid of being seen.

It's up to everyone to think what they want.

She's not afraid of losing face.

The one who truly embarrasses herself is Ren Zhaodi.

Hua Xiuyun pointed at the belatedly arriving boss with annoyance, "You should still remember me, right? My son and daughter-in-law booked their wedding here. I was originally hoping to book a dozen more tables here for my grandson's one-month celebration, but look at the attitude of your waiters! I came here to eat, not to be angry!"

"Mrs. Jiang!"

The boss naturally recognized "this person".

Her husband is in the military.

This is not someone you should mess with.

The boss chuckled, "Yes, yes, please don't be angry. This waiter is new and doesn't know the rules. If he offends you in any way, I'll fire him immediately. What do you think?"

"It's your business how you handle it, but my daughter-in-law is pregnant! The worst thing you can do during pregnancy is get angry. If she offends my daughter-in-law, your entire restaurant won't be able to afford the compensation!"

Hua Xiuyun pointed at the boss and started cursing.

The boss didn't dare say a word and kept apologizing.

Hua Xiuyun got her revenge!

She picked up the teacup next to her and took a sip. "You've been a boss for more than just a year or two. When you're hiring, please be more discerning. Don't just bring any person into the shop; you might end up with a troublemaker!"

"Understood, please don't be angry. I'll pay for the food you two ordered today."

The boss first calmed the customer down, then glared at Ren Zhaodi!

This person has a good eye; he offended a big shot right away.

"Get out of here right now! We can't afford to have someone as important as you!"

The boss fired the person right in front of Hua Xiuyun.

Ren Zhaodi retorted, "Boss, we're in business, we can't just let any customer in! If they make such unreasonable demands, we can just kick them out."

Boss: "..." Can you believe this?!

Kick them out? He would rather kick out all the staff than kick out any customer who came into the store.

"The way I told you about making money in the store yesterday is exactly what I meant. As long as you do as I say, you will definitely make a fortune! Losing one customer is not a big deal. The key is that our store cannot give up."

[Hmph, the female lead is reborn; Lin Zhaoyue is no match for her.]

[Hmm, I feel like the female lead is going a bit too far here. She's just there to eat, and she's rambling on and on. It's reasonable to suspect she simply dislikes Lin Zhaoyue and is deliberately saying these things to annoy her.]

[The ladies upstairs don't need to doubt it! That's exactly what Ren Zhaodi meant.]

I really dislike this kind of female lead; Lin Zhaoyue didn't do anything wrong.

Don't confuse the main and supporting characters here; the female lead has a special aura!
