As soon as Xi Mo got out of the elevator, she saw Yuan Lili standing next to Zhang Wenyu and Xue Jing, and hurried over.
"Manager Yuan, I'm sorry, they are my classmates. It's their first time here and they can't find their way. I hope I didn't cause you any trouble."
Yuan Lili waved her hands hurriedly.
"No, no! Of course not! I just happened to walk here. You're going to attend a class reunion, right? Then I won't bother you. If you need anything, just come to me. I hope you have fun."
Are you kidding? How can showing off in front of the new boss be considered troublesome?
Yuan Lili wanted to ask which private room it was. She asked someone to send some fruits and signature dishes over. She glanced at the new boss who was standing next to her without saying anything, and silently swallowed her words.
Forget it, the boss hasn't said anything yet. This is the boss's own restaurant. If he needs anything, he will definitely tell me. There's no need for me to run around delivering things. It would seem like I'm being generous to the boss and earning a favor for myself.
But just this attitude surprised Xi Mo.
Manager Yuan is so enthusiastic today! Has she heard about her husband's promotion? Of course she does. People like her who frequently interact with the big bosses of various companies are always well-informed. She must have heard something to be so enthusiastic about her. It seems her husband's promotion to vice president is a sure thing!
When Xi Mo thought of this, the smile on her face became even wider. She took the initiative to hold Yuan Lili's hand and said.
"Manager Yuan is so polite. Last time, several leaders from Chirui Technology came here for a meal, and my husband Chen Di was very satisfied with the environment, food, and service at Wanghailou. He's been bringing me here for dinner ever since. When he knew we were having a class reunion, he even urged me to hold it at Wanghailou."
"I was saying that everyone in City R knows Wanghailou is doing great business, and it's incredibly hard to reserve a private room for events. I thought I'd just give it a try, and I was so lucky I actually got a reservation. And by some chance, I ran into Manager Yuan. Today is truly my lucky day."
Chirui Technology? That little company that opened in the west of the city in the last two years? Who is Chen Di? I've never heard of him!
Yuan Lili was confused and couldn't recall this person from her memory after thinking for a long time. However, seeing her boss standing beside her, she had to give face to her boss's classmate, so she had to pretend that she had heard of him and said politely with a smile.
"It's all due, and thank you for your support of Wanghailou. Customers' satisfaction with their meals is the highest praise we can give to our restaurant. We are also aware of the difficulty in making reservations, but to ensure the quality of service, we can only limit the number of guests we can accommodate at this time. Thank you for your understanding."
Xi Mo said quickly.
"You're also considering the interests of our customers, and we all understand that. Now I understand why, among all the restaurants and hotels in City R, Wanghailou is the most prosperous. This determination to sacrifice profits to ensure a good customer experience is bound to lead to its success. Other business owners should really learn from the boss of Wanghailou. He has a vision, and you can tell he's a big businessman!"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Lili glanced at Zhang Wenyu and was about to say something when Xi Mo's phone rang. Xi Mo looked at the phone, slapped her head and said.
"Ouch! Look at my memory. I was so busy chatting that I forgot about the party. Our teacher sent me a message asking where I was. I have to quickly pick up my classmates and go back to the private room. Manager Yuan, let's talk later!"
Xi Mo lowered her head to look at her phone, so she didn't see the eye contact between Zhang Wenyu and Yuan Lili.
Zhang Wenyu looked back at Yuan Lili and quickly shook her head, signaling Yuan Lili not to flatter her in front of her, as it was too embarrassing.
She knew what Yuan Lili was going to say, which was nothing more than praising the boss, but she had not yet interfered with the management of Wanghailou. The good business of Wanghailou was also the credit of the previous boss Bai Ye's father and the current manager of Wanghailou.
Zhang Wenyu didn't really want to hear these two people taking credit for something that didn't belong to her and praising her. She refused to face such an embarrassing situation.
Xi Mo said goodbye to Yuan Lili and took Zhang Wenyu and Xue Jing into the elevator.
In the elevator, Xi Mo was still introducing Yuan Lili's identity to Zhang Wenyu and Xue Jing. Looking at the two people standing next to her, she sounded a little dissatisfied and couldn't help complaining.
"Didn't I tell you not to run around? This is a high-end restaurant, not your usual roadside diner. The people who come here to eat are all wealthy and powerful people. If you run around and accidentally bump into them, you'll get yourself into trouble!"
"Luckily, you met Manager Yuan, a senior executive at Wanghailou. My husband and I often dine here, so Manager Yuan probably recognized me and didn't bother with you. But since you've never been here before, it's normal to be inexperienced. Just be careful next time. If you come here again, don't wander around!"
Xue Jing glanced at Zhang Wenyu and said nothing.
Zhang Wenyu didn't know how to explain it. She didn't mention it before because she didn't know Xi Mo would book a meal here. Later, she felt a little bit like showing off when she specifically mentioned it. Unexpectedly, she met Yuan Lili as soon as she arrived. Yuan Lili's enthusiastic attitude caused Xi Mo to misunderstand.
It was even more inappropriate to talk about this situation now, so Zhang Wenyu simply chose to shut up.
Xi Mo continued speaking.
"You're lucky today. I just happened to come down to pick you up. Otherwise, if you had wandered around here for a while longer and offended the big boss, even if the big boss didn't make a fuss about you, Wanghailou wouldn't let you go easily."
The current owner of Wanghailou smiled awkwardly.
"You're exaggerating. Wanghailou is open for business. Everyone who comes in is a customer. They wouldn't do something so unreasonable. They're not a gang, so why are they trying to get involved and let anyone go? This is just a place to eat. Everyone should just be normal."
Xi Mo looked at Zhang Wenyu disapprovingly.
"Wenwen, you're too naive. Their world is different from yours. They can easily move their fingers and make ordinary people like you unable to rise. You've never come into contact with people from this class before, so you don't have the opportunity to understand them."
"Take Wanghailou for example. Do you know how much their daily turnover is? Millions every day! What's most important isn't the money you make, but the connections you make here. And do you know who owns this place? The Bai family! They're a time-honored family in our R City. At their peak, half of R City was owned by their property. The current head of the Bai family is a ruthless person. Wanghailou is their iconic property. If you offend Wanghailou's customers here, you're slapping them in the face again. It's a wonder they'll let you go!"
Zhang Wenyu tried to clear Baizhu's name.
"Haha, I think it's okay. They seem easy to get along with. These are probably just rumors. You might have misunderstood."
