The manager pushed open the door and walked in, listening to the greetings of others as he headed towards the person in charge of the kitchen.
The two didn't speak, but exchanged a glance and walked together to the storage room.
"The person who poisoned us hasn't arrived yet."
"real?"
"Really, why would I lie to you? I won't give up until the food arrives, will I?"
"All right!"
The manager and the kitchen supervisor were talking and had been at ease for about ten seconds when they heard a noise outside.
"What are you doing in here? Don't touch the food."
"We were just hungry and came in to get something to eat, please don't misunderstand!"
"Exactly! As guests, shouldn't we be able to come in and grab something to eat when we're hungry? The food is taking so long to arrive, what kind of service is this? We're going to complain to the manager."
"No! Get out of here! The food will be served soon, and there are appetizers, cookies, and candy. How could you possibly be hungry?"
As a large hotel, it is very considerate in this regard. The dining table not only has candy, biscuits and fruit platters, but also five appetizers: pickled radish, pickled cabbage, smashed cucumber, and braised chicken feet and duck feet.
The guests will not go hungry at all.
Moreover, the kitchen serves food at a decent speed; it's definitely not slow.
Hearing the faint sounds outside, the manager and the kitchen manager suddenly turned pale, realizing that the people causing trouble outside might really be those bad guys who had drugged the victim.
The two of them took off running as fast as they could.
Before they even reached the center of the kitchen and saw the bad guys, the two of them saw a girl squatting by the table, taking out a package from her pocket and preparing to pour it into the soup pot. She was looking around to see if anyone was there. When she saw the two men, she jumped in fright, her hand trembled, and the powder in the paper bag spilled out.
"What are you doing—" the manager yelled, running towards the girl.
"Ah—" The girl who drugged her was Lu Lu. Seeing that she had been discovered, she was terrified, threw away the paper bag, and turned to run towards the kitchen door.
But there were more than a dozen people surrounding the exit.
"Don't run! Catch her! Catch her now—" the manager shouted, but he dared not utter the words "poison" for fear of frightening the others in the kitchen.
I don't want things to escalate.
All we need to do is tie up the bad guys who poisoned the food, throw them into the storage room, and wait until the Lu family's banquet is over before having them call the police to deal with the poisoning.
The kitchen manager joined in, running towards Lu Lu. In her panic, she tried to escape through the small kitchen door, but in her haste, she bumped into him.
They caught him with ease.
When Lu Hai and Yu Dawei saw Lu Lu running away, they knew they had been exposed, so they turned and ran towards the kitchen door.
However, they couldn't outrun the dozen or so people in the kitchen. After being chased down two corridors, both of them were captured.
While waiting in the lobby, An Wan learned from the information relayed by the little paper doll that Lu Hai and the other two had been captured by the manager.
He excitedly gave Lu Senji and his son an "OK" sign.
Her eyebrows were curved, and her smile was both cute and charming, as well as dazzling.
She dazzled many people present; the women adored her as a cute and well-behaved "daughter" and "sister."
And the men all wanted a daughter and sister as lovely as her.
Especially the young boys, they all want to win her favor, and it would be even better if they could become her boyfriend.
Lu Sen and Lu Jingxing breathed a sigh of relief and leaned back in their chairs.
Lu Jiayan's tense nerves relaxed, and he took a few sips of tea.
Lu Chun and his brothers almost jumped up from their seats, their faces showing excitement. They even raised their hands in a victory gesture, attracting the attention of others.
During the five minutes of waiting, they were both anxious and angry.
If they have to wait a few more minutes, they'll probably have a mental breakdown.
Or perhaps they couldn't control themselves and rushed into the kitchen to catch Lu Hai and the other bad guys.
However, they really wanted to go, and they were filled with excitement and anticipation.
Lu Zhili and Lu Chunhe, in particular, have always had a sense of heroism and both dream of becoming police officers and soldiers to catch bad guys and protect the people and the country.
He Sichen learned about Lu Hai's poisoning from Lu Jingxing a few minutes ago, but he did not help, instead leaving it to Lu Jingxing to handle.
I'm sure this little thing won't stump him.
We will encounter many more things in the future, and we will need to face and resolve them calmly and composedly.
Only then can they shoulder great responsibilities.
He Yurou and Jiang Wanruo noticed that Lu Chun and his brothers were acting strangely, so they asked them what had happened that made them so excited and happy.
They dared not say anything, and then slipped away to the toilet.
Actually, they went to the kitchen to see how disheveled Lu Hai and the others looked after being captured, and also to see when the food would be served, as they were all hungry.
Lu Kong, who was sitting at the next table, also noticed that Lu Chun and his brothers were acting strangely. His right eyelid kept twitching, and seeing that Lu Hai and the others had not returned, his worry grew.
Could something have happened to them?
What if things get exposed?
No, it's just putting a packet of powder in the food. Can't three people handle that?
Lu Kong, who has always been arrogant and conceited, expects to be served food and clothing without lifting a finger.
Even though he hadn't had his mother and grandmother's care for the past two months, he hadn't cooked a single meal. He had been eating out whenever he could, or asking Lu Hai and Lu Lu for money to eat at restaurants.
Therefore, he never knew how much effort, time, and energy it would take to do something well.
Dongxi took Guai Guai back to the hall.
A few minutes earlier, when they saw Lu Lu about to poison someone, they were about to intervene when they saw the manager and the head of the kitchen appear, so they quietly left.
