Chapter 15 Scheme (2/2)
Mo Xie had been bringing back 20 or 30 silvers a day, hence, she knew that it will be hard for him to bare.
”I don't really mind eating at any other place.”
Mo Xie smiled, clearly, Shang Ting doesn't want them to be lacking money in the future, hence, she wouldn't mind eating in a cheaper place.
”Ay-ay, this wife of mine, surely, you are underestimating me too much.”
Mo Xie spoke as he dragged Shang Ting inside.
”Welcome customers, for how many tables?” The receptionist smiled, but she is still checking Mo Xie and Shang Ting from head to toe, a slight annoyance can be seen in her eyes before it vanishes a second later.
”Table for two, I would like to have my table set with a great view.” Mo Xie replied, he didn't mind mortals being arrogant once in a while, especially if they had been bathing in the limelight for too long.
”Okay, follow me please.” The receptionist mockingly spoke, she'll bring Mo Xie and Shang Ting to the most expensive floor, and just sitting there would cost 15 gold coins.
Mo Xie nodded his head, following the receptionist to the 4th floor.
The other guest that they had passed by sighed, seeing Mo Xie and Shang Ting's ordinary clothes, they will fall for the receptionist's trap.
Shang Ting kept wanting to speak, to tell Mo Xie about it, but with Mo Xie always stopping her, she couldn't help it, Even her clan only dines here once a month, and only at the 3rd floor.
The higher the floor is, the more expensive it would be.
The receptionist finally stopped and pointed at the vacant table with extravagant designs: ”Young Master, all of the tables were fully booked, this is the only one that is vacant.”
Mo Xie smiled as he nodded and sat at the table together with Shang Ting, the receptionist smiled seeing Mo Xie take a seat with Shang Ting.
”Where is the menu?”
”Ah, Young Master must be a first timer here, we only serve a small banquet in this floor, would you like to order that?” The receptionist smiled, she will definitely embarrass Mo Xie here.
Out of the thirty tables, only five were occupied, and all five of these customers have great backgrounds.
”Okay, is there any different kinds or are there a single banquet style?” Mo Xie asked.
”Of course there are different kinds, there is bronze, silver, gold, and luxury banquets.” The receptionist smiled.
'Country Bumpkins, you will be a slave with your woman here forever!'
”We'll take the bro-” Shang Ting was about to speak, but before she could, Mo Xie blocked her again.
Mo Xie smiled as he nodded and replied: ”I will take the Luxury Banquet.”
The receptionist smiled and nodded her head: ”I will be back with the food.”
Mo Xie waved his hands for the receptionist to go on.
The receptionist smiled as she went to the back of the restaurant, a mocking smile is plastered in her face; 'A luxury banquet? that will cost 10 gold taels! hahaha, even the great clans wouldn't spend something like that! only the City Lord's manor had ever done so.'
All of the nobles eating here saw the event transpired, they wanted to check Mo Xie's background, but seeing his clothes, they all sighed and had the same thought.
'This young man was schemed against by that receptionist.'
Then, just at this moment, three silhouettes walks towards Mo Xie and Shang Ting.
”Oh-hoo, you have the money to dine in this floor?” It is the same man they encountered outside a few moments ago.
'Ah, that's a Lu Shi, Lu Clan's 3rd young Master, the legendary silkpants boy.' All of the other smirked, it seemed that the young man, Mo Xie, had offended Lu Shi outside, such a terrible thing to happen.
The Lu Clan is the 8th rank in power inside the Gangting City, although their power is not much, but instead, their wealth is tremendous, they can be on equal footing with the Jiang Clan in terms of wealth.
Mo Xie looked at the man and ignored him.
”Hmmp! How dare you ignore me?” Lu Shi felt enraged.
Mo Xie was about to take action, but he immediately stopped, another two silhouettes are approaching his current location. Mo Xie looked at the two as he wait for their move.
'Friend? Or foe?'
As what he is now, Mo Xie can only fight using his knowledge and the experience he had received.
But fighting these two will definitely be a headache, especially since Mo Xie can feel something from the lady.
