Chapter 440: Is your Huo family so poor that they have you working as a waiter?
Halfway through the meal, Huo Yao got up to go to the bathroom.
The restaurant is one of the most upscale star restaurants in the city. Without a membership or advance reservation, you can't queue up even if you have money. There are a lot of customers at this time.
After Huo Yao came out of the bathroom, he deliberately looked up and glanced around the entire hall. It was really packed.
When ordering the food, she even looked at the prices. Every dish cost three figures... Her family must be more than just wealthy.
Huo Yao withdrew his gaze with emotion and was about to go back, but he didn't expect to meet an acquaintance.
"Why are you here?" He Xiaoman looked at Huo Yao, a hint of doubt on her delicately made-up face.
She had finally managed to get a reservation at this restaurant, so she invited a few wealthy ladies in the circle to come out for dinner.
Although it is a booth in the lobby, it is still very impressive.
It is very illogical to see the adopted daughter appear here at this time.
Huo Yao didn't expect that the world was so small that he could meet the Lu family just while having a meal. He glanced at her lightly and said nothing.
Seeing this, He Xiaoman looked up and looked around. Since they were in a public place, she took two steps towards Huo Yao and lowered her voice with disdain: "Why, is your Huo family so poor that you have to work as a waiter?"
The minimum consumption to dine in this restaurant is several thousand yuan. She doesn't think that her adopted daughter can afford it. After all, she was raised in the countryside since she was a child, and she probably doesn't even have the courage to come in.
There is nothing else to do except being a waiter.
The restaurant manager, who was not far away and was always paying attention to the young lady's actions, glanced expressionlessly at the woman who was talking to his young lady.
They actually said their eldest daughter is a waitress?
So the restaurant manager waved to the foreman and whispered a few instructions.
Huo Yao didn't pay any attention to the restaurant manager. He just looked at He Xiaoman with a half-smile, and suddenly sighed sadly, "Yes, our Huo family is really poor."
The restaurant manager who had quietly walked behind Huo Yao staggered and almost fell when he heard what the eldest lady said.
Huo family, poor?
The young lady must have some misunderstanding about the word "poor".
Although He Xiaoman thought her adopted daughter's attitude was strange, she didn't think too much about it, and didn't even pay attention to the restaurant manager who passed by. She just chuckled and said, "If you're poor, don't pretend. After all, pretending costs money."
He Xiaoman couldn't help but think back to the last time at school when she was so kind as to let the Huo couple work in Lu's subsidiary, and she, the adopted daughter, still asked for a high salary, which she found funny.
Huo Yao nodded seriously, "Yes, what you said makes sense."
He Xiaoman frowned subconsciously when she heard this.
She looked at Huo Yao. In her previous interactions with this adopted daughter, she had always been arrogant and rude. Why did she suddenly lower her attitude today?
Despite the many doubts in her mind, He Xiaoman did not want to have much contact with her adopted daughter, so as to avoid being laughed at by her wealthy lady friends. She clapped her hands on her arms, as if to shake off some dirty dust that had gotten on her body from just getting close to Huo Yao.
"Remember your identity. You are not allowed to say that you know me here. Do you understand?" He Xiaoman warned in a low voice.
After saying that, she raised her chin, walked past Huo Yao without even looking at him, and headed towards the bathroom.
The back view looks as arrogant as it can be.
