Chapter 107 Stealing the Spotlight



Pei Qinghuan didn't care about Gu Jinchen's already livid face. Instead, she felt that her speculation was reasonable and well-founded.

Gu Jinchen frowned, his eyes gloomy.

Pei Qinghuan pretended not to see it.

On the contrary, Zhang Xi and Chen Yu at the banquet also looked unhappy.

They ate in confusion and uncertainty, but in between meals they would look at Gu Jinchen with strange eyes.

"Well, our husband usually has a say over those business people."

Zhang Xi gritted his teeth beside him.

"It was just now. Maybe they were in a bad mood, so they didn't notice my husband."

Before she could finish her words of excuse, the others smiled and agreed, "Of course, Zhang Xi, you don't have to say that. We definitely don't think that Mr. Chen is a loser..."

They looked at each other, their expressions somewhat embarrassed, even their flattering expressions seemed a little guilty.

It’s not that they think Mr. Chen is not impressive, but they suddenly feel that Pei Qinghuan’s husband may not be underestimated. Thinking of this, they looked at Gu Jinchen with a little more nervousness in their eyes.

How could Chen Yu not see what their eyes meant? He became even more annoyed. "Serve the food, everyone. Order whatever you want. It's my treat."

Chen Yu said this almost with gritted teeth.

Everyone's face instantly lit up with smiles. "Okay, okay, let's still congratulate Mr. Chen for this meal! It has to be Mr. Chen!"

Chen Yu then laughed, and then he heard the others lower their heads and sigh.

"I just noticed this menu? Eighteen thousand yuan? Holy shit, Mr. Chen? Are you sure you're treating me with this menu?"

Seeing everyone talking about the menu, Pei Qinghuan also lowered his head to take a look at the menu. He was almost scared to death by the menu.

"Oh my god, is this true? This menu is too expensive."

Chen Yu then lowered his head and frowned as he glanced at the menu. After a long while, his expression froze. "How could it be..."

Zhang Xi also took a look at it and said, "What?... This dish can't be that expensive."

Zhang Xi was just about to think that her husband was making a big deal out of nothing, but the next second her face turned pale.

The prices on this menu are too expensive!

Zhang Xike would not tolerate it. She immediately shouted and called the manager over.

"Are the prices on your menu wrong? Why are they so expensive? Is this something a normal person can order? Every dish is so expensive! Believe it or not, I'm going to report you!"

The manager faced Zhang Xike calmly and said, "Miss, you are not mistaken. The dishes at Tianzi Pavilion are really that expensive. Since you are here, you should know that the ingredients here are the rarest."

Zhang Xi was so angry that she fainted. Wasn't this just embarrassing for her? If she said that, how could she treat everyone to a meal? Wouldn't this group of people still look down on her?

"Forget it, Mr. Chen, Zhang Xi, don't be so stubborn. Since we all have to eat, let's go for something cheaper. You can tell the manager that we don't need to move up to the table and can just go back to the small private room we just ate in."

Xiaoxiao stood up and spoke in a sarcastic tone, which made Zhang Xi even angrier.

Of course she couldn't just pretend nothing happened.

"Please! Since I, Chen Yu, have said I'll treat you, that's my word! All of you sit down, I won't let you go back."

Chen Yu frowned, a hint of annoyance on his face, but he finally forced the manager to go back. "Zhang Xi, stop arguing, everyone, order."

He sat down, then realized he hadn't finished what he had just said. After a long pause, he added, "Let's order two dishes per table. You don't need to eat too much."

Zhang Xi next to him also wiped the sweat from his face, complained, and his eyes fell on Pei Qinghuan's husband again.

"Qing Huan, your husband just now seemed to know all those big guys. If that's the case, why don't you ask your husband to tell him, maybe he can get a discount."

She did this on purpose, wanting to embarrass Gu Jinchen.

Everyone knew that Pei Qinghuan's husband had just said hello to them, so how could he have asked them to give them a discount on the entire seat?

Pei Qinghuan frowned, "Zhang Xi, how is this possible, you..."

"It doesn't matter."

Gu Jinchen smiled. He could feel that Pei Qinghuan was anxious.

Soon, the manager who had just left came in again with his nose in the air. When he saw that it was Gu Jinchen this time, his expression became more flattering.

"Gu, Mr. Gu."

Gu Jinchen lowered his head and said something.

The manager happily announced, "Congratulations to everyone who won the grand prize of our table. You can order whatever you want. This meal is free."

When they heard this, their eyes lit up!

free!

How could they be so lucky that it was free? Doesn't this mean that they can eat this meal for free?!

"What did you say to the manager?"

Pei Qinghuan looked at Gu Jinchen in surprise, and approached him to ask curiously.

Gu Jinchen laughed.

"secret."

Zhang Xi, who was not far away, stared at Pei Qinghuan and the other couple angrily.

Pei Qinghuan, this bitch, not only is she stealing the limelight herself, but now she's bringing her husband along to steal the spotlight too?!
