Chapter 885 A Good Show 6
The food had been served in the hall and the guests were seated. Ye Rou was already hungry after a night of hard work.
This restaurant has a good reputation in Beijing. Although it hosts banquets for many people, the dishes are not sloppy and are all delicious and tasty.
Ye Rou picked up the chopsticks and immediately set her eyes on the roast duck in front of her. She picked up the spring roll wrapper and planned to roll one up to eat.
The chopsticks had just touched the dish and before I could pick it up, the table turned and the roast duck flew away.
The squirrel fish was caught in front of her. Just as Ye Rou was about to grab it, the fish flew away.
Ye Rou looked up and found out who was turning the table.
An old lady was sitting opposite me, with her little grandson sitting next to her.
The dishes in front of her grandson were piled up like a small mountain, but the old lady kept serving them to him.
"My dear grandson, eat slowly, these are all yours."
The old lady picked up the food with one hand while pressing the turntable with her other hand.
Ye Rou felt a lump in her chest.
But the main purpose tonight is to catch Li Cheng, and eating is just a side job, so it’s better not to cause trouble.
Ye Rou set her eyes on the almond tofu and was about to pick it up when the turntable moved and the tofu spun away in front of her.
She looked up and met the old lady's disgusted gaze.
The case was solved. This old woman was deliberately targeting her!
Ye Rou asked her: "Do you know me?"
The old lady glanced at her from the corner of her eyes and pointed at Ye Rou: "You look so weird and charming, you can tell at a glance that you are not a girl from a decent family."
Ye Rou laughed angrily.
"Who I am has nothing to do with you, and you have no right to control me."
She pressed the turntable with three fingers. She had never lost in a contest of strength.
The old woman noticed that she was exerting force and started pressing down too, preventing her from turning the table.
But she soon found that it was useless. In order to suppress Ye Rou, she pressed the turntable with both hands, and pressed so hard that her face turned red.
Ye Rou exerted a little force, but even if the old woman put all her strength into it, it was useless.
The roast duck was placed in front of her, and Ye Rou rolled it up with one hand and ate it.
As the old woman watched the roast duck being carried away, her grandson started to make a fuss: "Grandma, I want to eat roast duck!"
"Grandma will pick it up for you!"
The old woman couldn't turn the plate, so she stood up and walked around to Ye Rou, reaching out to take the whole plate away!
Just as his hand was about to touch the plate, the roast duck was taken away by another person.
The old woman was furious: "Who!"
She looked back angrily and met a pair of gloomy and narrow eyes.
It was Jiang Chen who came back from washing his hands.
He held the roast duck plate and said in a cold tone, "Old woman, go back to your seat."
In front of Jiang Chen, the old lady's arrogance was much lower.
She walked back dejectedly.
Jiang Chen sat down next to Ye Rou, put the roast duck back, took the spring roll wrapper from Ye Rou's hand, and after rolling it up, he didn't let Ye Rou touch it with her hands, letting her bite it directly.
Ye Rou took a big bite and gave the old woman a provocative smile.
The little fat boy drooled with greed and pounded the table, crying, "I want to eat roast duck, grandma, I want to eat roast duck!"
The shrill crying made everyone at the table impatient.
Seeing that she was no longer able to stand up to the pressure, the old woman started to play the victim: "You two young people are bullying an old lady like me. If my son were here, I would definitely not let you bully me."
As she spoke, she began to cry.
But neither Ye Rou nor Jiang Chen paid any attention to her.
One was busy picking up food, and the other was busy eating, neither of them raised their heads.
The old lady was still crying: "My son is a soldier, defending our country. This is how you bully the family of a soldier. I will sue you!"
Seeing that Ye Rou and Jiang Chen still ignored her, the other people at the table acted as if they didn't hear her.
The old woman was completely furious, and she was so angry that she picked up the vegetables and was about to hit Ye Rou.
Fortunately, Ye Rou was quick-witted and saw the old woman carrying the plates, so she subconsciously pulled Jiang Chen away.
But the dish fell on the table, and the soup splashed everywhere, attracting the attention of people at other tables.
The old woman wanted to smash it again.
Li Cheng came over: "What are you arguing about!"
The old woman's expression changed in an instant, and she actually cried to Li Chengjiu, saying that Ye Rou and the other two were bullying them.
"Deputy Mayor, you have to stand up for me, a commoner! I can't just stand by and watch these two young men bully me."
Li Cheng was anxious to invite Ye Rou and Jiang Chen upstairs, and he didn't bother to pay attention to the old lady. He pushed her aside and said, "Madam, who are you from? I don't remember you being on the invitation list."
The old lady's expression froze, and she couldn't hide her guilty look.
Just then, the waiter came and explained everything to everyone.
It turns out that the old lady often brings her grandson to eat at banquets.
There were so many people at the banquet that no one would notice the presence of an old lady.
But this old lady had an arrogant attitude and often quarreled with others over food and possessions. Everyone in the restaurant knew her.
I guess he sneaked in here just to get a free meal this time.
The old lady didn't have any soldier son. Her son was just a lazy little hooligan. She said this just to scare people.
Four strong waiters carried the man away, and the hotel said they would make another table.
Ye Rou was not full yet and was about to go to another table when she was stopped by Li Cheng.
He said anxiously, "Doctor Ye, my wife is feeling a little uncomfortable in her stomach. Can you help take a look?"
Ye Rou and Jiang Chen looked at each other: "Okay, where is the person?"
Li Cheng originally thought that they would refuse, but he didn't expect them to agree so quickly.
This is fine...
Li Cheng immediately said, "It's in the lounge at the end of the second floor. You guys go ahead and I'll ask the waiter for a pot of hot water."
Seeing the two people going upstairs, Li Cheng felt relieved and the corners of his mouth curled up.
