Seeing that Xia Enruo was giving him a way out, the manager's attitude became warmer. "Okay, okay, let's settle it now. The front desk will give the young lady 200 yuan. Young lady, come often when you have time, and I'll give you a 20% discount on meals. My name is Qin Gang. Just look for me when you come. This time, we really owe you a lot. Please forgive me for the disrespectful things I said before."
Xia Enruo naturally wouldn't hold it against her. Having experienced so many ups and downs in her previous life, how could she ever become rich if she were to dwell on such things?

Qin Gang's enthusiasm made Xia Enruo feel that he had changed, and was no longer as arrogant and domineering as he had been at the beginning.
