Chapter 42 - Painful Impact (2/2)

Ling Yue almost stripped the entire shrimp off the plate. Her fingers felt stiff. She resisted the urge to put the shrimp's legs and head into his nostrils. The shrimp on the peeled plate remained a quarter when Xi Jian put down his chopsticks.

”Oh, that's really good. You try it too.” Xi Jian wiped his mouth. ”I have another meeting after this. You can enjoy the rest.” Xi Jian stood and left the table for the cashier.

Ling Yue with sparkling eyes swore in heart. Finally! She can eat in peace.

”Uuugghhh this is really good,” if she did not aware of this five-star restaurant, Ling Yue plans to lick the spices on her plate clean. She really enjoyed her time here and stood up after everything was up.

”Sorry miss, you haven't paid for your meal.”

”What?” Ling Yue stopped and looked at the servant who was blocking her. ”But I saw my boss standing here” doesn't that mean he already paid for their food?

The waiter was still trying to look professional. ”That mister only said that the bill would be paid by the lady.”

Ling Yue's lips formed a straight line. ”OK, how much is that?”

The cashier shows the bill. Ling Yue's eyes almost jumped out. How could lunch cost nearly four thousand dollars? Ling Yue examined the list they ordered.

”I think you make mistake. We didn't order bird's nest or Maotai.” Ling Yue gave it back.

”Oh, that's an additional order to take away. We've sent it to the gentleman earlier.”

Ling Yue clenched her bag. Bastaaaaard!!!
