"We went to Modern Eye for dinner."
"Modern Eye? Distinguished guests, do you have an appointment?"
"Appointment? Yes."
"Hello, ladies, I am your hostess. I will now take you to the Eye of Shanghai."
"Okay, let's go."
"Gentlemen, this way please. Before we go to the Eye of Shanghai, we need to verify your identity. May I ask which hall you have booked, and who made the reservation?"
"Sister Zhilan, did he tell you?"
"No, I didn't tell you either."
“He didn’t say anything, Sister Zhilan. Why don’t you give him a call and ask?”
"Shouldn't you be the one calling? I don't have his number."
"Sister Zhilan, I don't think I have any either."
The receptionist listened to their conversation, and her expression was quite interesting.
This is the first time I've encountered such a bizarre situation. Someone invited them to dinner, and they didn't even have their contact information.
"Ladies, if you don't have an appointment, please leave. Don't waste my time, thank you."
"Wait a mininute."
"Sister Zhilan, why don't we go back? I didn't want to come anyway. Let's go eat together, it's on me."
“No need, we can go in even without a reservation.” Su Zhilan took out a purple-gold card from her bag.
"Take us inside."
"This, this is a Purple Gold Card?! Madam, you are our most distinguished customer at the Eye of Shanghai. I will have our manager come to see you right away."
"No need for that trouble, just take us up there directly."
"No, no, that's not possible. My level is limited to Platinum Card. Your Purple Gold Card is far beyond my scope of service. Please wait a moment while I go and consult the manager."
"Just leave it here. I'll tell your manager. No need for all that trouble."
"Oh well."
"Hello, Manager Wu, it's me."
"Is there something you need?"
"I am currently receiving a VIP guest with a Purple Gold Card."
"Purple Gold Card? Impossible! Purple Gold Cards are extremely rare, and we are always notified in advance whenever a Purple Gold Card VIP comes."
"Give me the phone so I can talk to Manager Wu."
"Yes, esteemed guest."
"Manager Wu, it's been a long time."
"And you are?"
"I don't remember? My surname is Su."
"Su! Mr. Su, it's you! I'm coming right away, please wait for me, I'll be there immediately! Why didn't you tell me you were coming?"
"We came here in a hurry today, and someone invited us to dinner. This receptionist can handle us. You don't need to come. I don't want to reveal my identity."
"Yes, Mr. Su, I'll give the order right away. Would you like me to arrange the Zijing Hall for you?"
"Didn't I just say not to reveal my identity? If I go to the Purple Gold Hall, won't my identity be exposed?"
"Yes, yes, yes, it was my oversight, President Su."
"Okay, that's all." Su Zhilan handed her phone to the receptionist.
"Mr. Su, may I... take you upstairs now?"
"Don't be nervous, we're not going to eat you, go on up."
"Okay, okay, Mr. Su, this way please."
"Sister Zhilan, is this Purple Gold Card really that powerful?"
"I don't know much about this. Can you introduce the Purple Gold Card?"
“Okay, Mr. Su, every employee of our Shanghai Eye is required to memorize their membership level during the pre-employment training.”
"The Purple Gold Card is the highest level here, with less than twenty issued in the entire country. Purple Gold Card holders can go directly to the Purple Gold Hall for meals without making an appointment, as the Purple Gold Hall is not usually open to the public."
"That sounds really impressive, Sister Zhilan. How did you get the Purple Gold Card?"
“The Su family owns shares in this hotel. The owner said he would give us a ticket, so my older sister registered my information.”
"The Eye of Shanghai, and the Su family's shares?"
"Yes, my eldest sister seems to have used an angel investment bank. Our Su family has a presence in many companies across China. We provide the capital, and they give us shares. It seems that our Su family owns 10% of this Shanghai Eye, which isn't much."
"Sister Zhilan, you've really kept this a secret."
"It's alright. Our Su family keeps a low profile. The more you learn about us, the more terrifying you'll find it. My eldest sister is incredibly shrewd in business."
The receptionist next to her was almost dumbfounded. She originally thought they were two nobodys, or perhaps playthings of a big shot, since they were so beautiful. But she never expected that they were big shots, and super big shots at that, the Su family of Kyoto, that god-like family.
"By the way, boss, do we need to make a reservation to come up here?"
"It seems so."
"Then, boss, you didn't tell Liu Qingmeng, did you?"
"It seems so. We don't have their contact information yet, so they can't get online."
"Boss, let's hurry up and bring them up. It should be time soon."
"This is really bad, let's go."
As soon as the two stepped into the elevator, they heard it ding.
"Qingmeng? Principal Su, how did you get up here?"
"This receptionist brought us up here."
"No, I mean, isn't this supposed to require an appointment? You didn't contact me beforehand, so why did he bring you up here?"
"Maybe we don't seem like scammers. See? I already told you, we just don't have his contact information. Now you believe me, right?"
"Yes, I believe you, Miss Su... I'll be going now."
"Wait, the tip."
"Yes, yes, tip, I'll give you the tip." Xiao Tong quickly took out a wad of cash, pulled out a few bills, and gave them to the receptionist.
"Thank you so much for giving us this opportunity."
"You're welcome, but I can't accept this money, sir. Please take it back."
Are you kidding me? Do you think I'm the kind of person who would accept tips? Although some rich people might give me tips when they're in a good mood, there's a time and place to consider. With President Su around, would I dare to accept tips?
“Take it. He gave it to you, so just accept it. We should thank you.” Su Zhilan said.
Since it was Su Zhilan who asked, the receptionist could accept it.
"Thank you, sir."
"Let's go in."
"Teacher Su, please come with me for a moment, let's go order some food," Zhao Yangtian said to Su Zhilan.
"Okay, Qingmeng, you go in first, I'll be right there."
"Okay, Sister Zhilan."
Liu Qingmeng followed Xiao Tong to the private room.
"A two-seater?"
"Yes, there's nothing I can do. When I made the reservation, only two seats were left."
"Where did Teacher Su and your friend sit?"
"They're right next door, don't worry."
"Then I'll go find Teacher Su. You and your friend can eat here."
"Don't go yet, Qingmeng. Sit down first. These are flowers I prepared for you. I specially changed the bouquet. Do you like them?"
