There are staircases on both sides, and the handrails of the staircases are made of expensive sandalwood.
In several corners, luminous pearls were displayed on tall poles.
The roof beams were covered with colorful agate stones and glass.
Its splendor was no less than that of an imperial palace.
It truly lives up to its reputation as the most expensive restaurant in the capital.
Wow, that's really extravagant...
Gu Jiangli complained inwardly.
While she was complaining, the waiter bowed and yawned as he approached: "Gentlemen, would you like a meal or a room?"
Xie Shiyan said coldly, "Find someone."
The waiter was taken aback. "Sir, we're not informants. You... shouldn't be looking for someone here."
No sooner had the waiter finished speaking than a portly man stepped out from behind him.
His face was all smiles, and the two little tufts of mustache around his mouth trembled with each smile.
"Oh my, isn't this General Xie and his wife? It's been a long time. This young man doesn't know any manners, please don't take it to heart."
With just one look from the man, the waiter could only shrink back.
It's clear that he's the owner of this restaurant.
Gu Jiangli nudged Xie Shiyan with her shoulder and asked in a low voice, "Are you very familiar with each other?"
Xie Shiyan lowered his head and answered softly, "He saved my life."
The next moment, the boss began to recount the scene when he met Xie Shiyan back then.
"Back then, it was all thanks to General Xie leading his troops to repel the bandits. Otherwise, how could my whole family have survived the bandits?"
"Our family was able to safely reach the capital with the silver and start this Baiwei Pavilion business, all thanks to General Xie's help back then."
"The waiter here is unaware of General Xie's life-saving grace to our family years ago, so he has been negligent towards you. Please forgive him..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xie Shiyan raised his hand to stop him.
"No need to say more, the real reason I came here today is to find someone."
“My Xie family’s maid, wearing a light green dress, is about your height and has her hair tied in two ponytails.”
"After about the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, we wanted to know which room she went to."
Upon hearing this, the boss hesitated for a moment, but only for a second.
"Alright, General Xie, Madam, please sit down and wait a moment. I'll go ask right away."
The boss waved his hand, summoning all the waiters around him.
The group talked for a while, and not long after, the boss returned.
"General, Madam, we've found out. It's on the third floor, room number two in the 'Heaven' section."
Gu Jiangli's lips twitched, and he couldn't help but ask, "Is it the most expensive one?"
"Yes, there are only two rooms in the 'Heaven' section. The maid that the general mentioned earlier went to room number two in the 'Heaven' section."
Xie Shiyan and Gu Jiangli exchanged a glance and smiled helplessly.
"Let's go to room number two in the 'Heavenly' section."
