Chapter 367 Family, really going down
Chapter 367 Family, really going down
Mr. Zhang returned to his office and looked at the photos he had just taken.
Chen Le is currently the most sought-after director in the entertainment industry. Being able to take a photo with him is a source of pride.
This is practically his shop's living advertisement!
Once this photo is developed, it needs to be hung in the most prominent place.
Thinking of this, Mr. Zhang looked up at the wall again, hesitated for a moment,
Where should I put it?
Suddenly, Mr. Zhang's gaze stopped and fell on the most prominent spot in the center.
There used to be tire rating certificates hanging there.
But now...
Thinking of this, Mr. Zhang called over the waiter again.
"When you have a moment, move that certificate somewhere else. I want to hang a photo of me and Director Chen in this spot."
……
at the same time,
Chen Le could still feel those eyes watching him.
"Still thinking about what just happened?"
Su Xi savored the appetizers while asking questions.
The appetizer was pan-seared foie gras, with a golden-brown exterior and a tender, smooth interior. It was served with homemade cranberry sauce, which was sweet and sour and melted in your mouth.
No wonder this restaurant is so popular; the food is indeed delicious.
However, Chen Le seemed somewhat distracted at this moment, idly poking at the appetizer plate with his knife and fork.
When Su Xi asked, Chen Le nodded.
Seeing this, Su Xi smiled and comforted her.
"After all, you're a big celebrity now, so it's reasonable for your fans to recognize you. Maybe other people will recognize you too?"
At this point, Su Xi picked up her knife and fork, cut off a piece of meat, and placed it on Chen Le's plate.
"Don't overthink it, eat it quickly, it's getting cold, and the taste will be bad if you don't eat it soon,"
Su Xi's words were not without reason.
After all, Mr. Zhang did explain the matter earlier, saying that he was just overthinking it.
Chen Le thought for a moment, then cut off a piece of foie gras and put it in his mouth.
Mmm...it smells so good.
The delicious taste made Chen Le forget his earlier troubles for a moment, and he savored the foie gras.
No wonder this restaurant is so hard to book; there must be a reason.
Before this, Chen Le had always thought that this restaurant was like other so-called "internet-famous restaurants," relying more on internet celebrity promotion than on substance.
But now it seems that the reason they became popular is because of their delicious taste!
Chen Le couldn't help but start looking forward to the next dish.
The restaurant also has a very nice ambiance. Several bouquets of vibrant red roses are displayed inside, a band is playing nearby, and the soft lighting creates a romantic atmosphere throughout the restaurant.
No wonder so many couples like to come here for dates.
Chen Le nodded as he ate.
However, at that moment, a sudden commotion shattered the restaurant's peaceful atmosphere.
Following the sound, they saw a woman of fairly good appearance walk into the restaurant.
The woman was tall and dressed extravagantly, holding a selfie stick in one hand, which she pointed at herself.
It looks like it's being broadcast live.
The woman's voice was also very high-pitched and affected.
"Babies, today we're going to eat at the most expensive restaurant in the city that's hardest to get a reservation at!"
This sound...
Chen Le frowned slightly.
This girl's voice almost drowned out the violin, and it was even comparable to the piano.
A perfectly good Western restaurant has been turned into something resembling a wet market.
Chen Le couldn't help but frown.
The entire restaurant suddenly became quite noisy and jarring.
The woman ignored the disgusted looks from the crowd and walked straight to her seat in her high heels.
She chose a seat not far from Chen Le and the others, so her voice could be heard even more clearly.
After the woman sat down, she adjusted the equipment while muttering grumbling in dissatisfaction.
"Honestly, these people are so shameless. They act like they've never seen a woman before. They just stare at me the moment they see me. Humph, they don't even know what they look like."
"Family members, please be careful when you go out. Just seeing these men's gazes makes me uncomfortable!"
The woman's voice wasn't loud, but Chen Le heard it clearly.
However, he couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to the woman and continued eating the foie gras on his plate.
"Excuse me, miss,"
The waiter stepped forward to stop him, about to speak, but before he could finish speaking...
"Um, your reservation wasn't for..."
"What do you mean 'little'? Your mother is the one who's called 'Miss',"
The woman gave the waiter no chance and interrupted him directly.
The waiter seemed somewhat helpless, but changed his story.
"
"Madam, this is not the seat you reserved. Your seat is over there."
As he spoke, the waiter pointed to a relatively small single seat not far away.
Although this is a restaurant for couples, some customers come for the food, so the restaurant has prepared some single seats. However, compared to the other double seats, the single seats are just one chair less.
"I'm already inside, why bother with seating arrangements? I'm just sitting here, I'm not going anywhere!"
As the woman spoke, she placed her bag on the chair.
The waiter, somewhat exasperated, had no choice but to explain.
"Madam, this seat was reserved by someone else. It's not really appropriate for you to sit here."
Upon hearing this, the woman immediately stood up, her voice rising eight octaves, and she roared and began to fight.
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah!"
What do you mean?
"You want me to sit in the corner? Is it because I'm a girl that you think girls don't deserve to sit in good seats?"
As she spoke, the woman pointed her phone at the waiter, and then addressed her "family" in the live stream.
"Family members, do you see this? Now we women don't even have the freedom to eat."
Upon hearing this, Chen Le, who was standing not far away, frowned. His already limited goodwill towards internet celebrities diminished even further.
They've even brought up the freedom to dine out?
How can such an ordinary position be related to freedom or lack thereof?
Besides, the waiter said that the table was reserved by someone else, and it's not right for you to take someone else's seat.
The waiter knew the other party was live-streaming, so he covered his face and asked other colleagues to call Mr. Zhang over.
Mr. Zhang jogged over, and when he saw the woman, his expression immediately turned rather unpleasant.
It seems he knew this person was difficult to deal with.
Mr. Zhang dared not speak in his usual loud voice, for fear that the woman might accuse him if he wasn't careful.
He suppressed his usual temper and spoke politely.
"Madam, this seat has been reserved by other guests. Why don't you go back to your seat and wait for me? I'll bring you an extra dessert."
To everyone's surprise, the woman replied nonchalantly.
"What happened?"
"You think you can just fob me off with a dessert? Do you even know who I am?"
"I'm a rose thorn, I have 550,000 followers, why should I give up my spot to passersby?"
