These words almost made everyone laugh.
They were just arguing, and now they're asking for seats. Anyone who didn't know better would think they were really good friends.
Even Ye Xiaoxin's side, upon hearing Su Xinyi's words, secretly gave her a thumbs up, thinking that this approach was quite good.
But when they heard Luo Yonghao's shameless words, they showed expressions of disgust.
Su Xinyi wasn't angry and still smiled: "I'm sorry, I don't know you well. Besides, our Joyful Hotel has rules. Even if someone is a friend of the boss, we can't kick them out to make room for you."
"you......"
Before Luo Yonghao could utter any threatening words, Su Xinyi interrupted him: "Of course, you can skip the line, then we can consider you troublemakers and throw you out."
"If they still won't give up, we'll have no choice but to call the police."
Call the police?
The two words struck Luo Yonghao like a blow to the head, and he was instantly terrified.
She swallowed hard, and unconsciously turned her gaze to Peng Tian.
Now, Peng Tian is his pillar of support.
Seeing that Qiu Mingyue and Luo Yonghao had both failed, Peng Tian could only purse his lips and step forward with a smile, saying, "Xinyi, does all our friendship from so many years of being classmates mean nothing? It's just a seat, can't you even arrange one?"
vomit!
Hearing Peng Tian call her that in such a cheesy way, Su Xinyi almost vomited from morning sickness.
The same goes for others; those who know the inside story all find Peng Tian utterly disgusting.
Although Su Xinyi felt disgusted, she still maintained a warm smile on her face. She knew she couldn't cause trouble for Ye Beiping, so she could only suppress her feelings.
"As I just said, even if we are classmates, we would never offend the guests and drive away those who are already seated because of this relationship."
"Xinyi..."
Peng Tian wanted to take a couple more steps closer to appeal to her emotions, but Su Xinyi raised her hand to stop him, interrupting him, "Peng, if you consider me my classmate, you would definitely want my business to prosper and my wealth to grow. You wouldn't be so impatient as to not even wait half an hour or an hour, and want me to drive away customers so I can't make money, would you?"
What you said makes a lot of sense.
The people around nodded in agreement.
If it were a classmate, they certainly wouldn't mind waiting a little longer.
On the contrary, I hope the boss can make more money; that's what true friends, true brothers, and true classmates should be like.
But these words stunned Peng Tian.
They couldn't offer any reason to object.
If I keep insisting on saying it, people will easily accuse me of causing trouble.
But he was unwilling to give up just like that.
He gazed deeply at Su Xinyi, recalling how long he had pursued her, how she had repeatedly found excuses to reject him, and how she had now married Ye Beiping's country bumpkin.
Peng Tian couldn't swallow this insult, and his previously ingratiating expression instantly became distorted.
"Su Xinyi, can't I, Peng Tian, be your friend? Can't you even make room for me? Just because I used to like you? Now that you're married, we can't even be friends?"
Wow!
Everyone in the room gaped, never expecting such a juicy tidbit.
Everyone turned to look at Su Xinyi.
In this day and age, anyone who can afford to open such a large restaurant must be an extraordinary person. Seeing Su Xinyi with a pregnant belly immediately evoked a sad story in some people's minds.
The male and female leads were classmates. The male lead had been pursuing the female lead for a long time, but the female lead was a vain woman who didn't want to give up on him as a backup option. Eventually, she found a powerful and wealthy older man and abandoned the male lead. Knowing he was inferior to the female lead's husband, the male lead could only humbly try to be a friend and stay by her side, only to be framed and distanced by her.
Um, everyone thinks the female lead is Su Xinyi, and the male lead is Peng Tian in front of us.
This plot is so melodramatic.
Su Xinyi frowned instantly, not expecting Peng Tian to be such a treacherous person.
"This young man is really pitiful."
"Yes, there's nothing wrong with liking someone, but I never thought that not only could I not be with the one I love, but we couldn't even be friends anymore."
"Who can argue with that? These days, young people all like rich men. They won't marry a wife without the 'three turns and one sound' (referring to a set of three watches, one turn, and one radio). Sigh."
...
People started discussing it.
Even Ye Xiaoxin and Tang Xiaolong, who hadn't read many books, realized that Peng Tian's words were deliberately meant to elicit sympathy from everyone.
Unable to contain herself any longer, Ye Xiaoxin tried to explain, but Su Xinyi stopped her.
No matter how you explain it at this point, the people around you won't believe you.
There's a saying that goes, "First impressions matter, then explanations only increase people's suspicions."
"Xinyi, we can't let everyone keep talking like this, something bad will happen," Su Qingwen whispered to her.
He was a scholar, so he knew the power of public opinion.
It's not just the hotel that will be affected by this incident; if someone is stirring things up, Ye Beiping's business could also be in trouble.
Once rumors start spreading, they can't be stopped.
Su Xinyi nodded. She naturally knew how powerful it was. With just one sentence, he made everyone around him sympathize with Peng Tian. If they added fuel to the fire, he might even be able to publish a book.
At this moment, she was thinking about how Ye Beiping would solve this problem.
Some of the students behind me started talking about it.
He Nini, Zhou Ying, and Deng Huiling all tried their best to explain.
Even He Nini and Zhou Ying, who used to stand with Qiu Mingyue, were now constantly talking badly about Peng Tian and Luo Yonghao.
