Chapter 245 Chance Encounter
A cold look gradually appeared in the waiter's eyes.
He was not unfamiliar with Xiao Chen's current state. He had seen it several times over the years. He just wanted to eat and dine for free!
Next, the man in white should hold his stomach and start wailing, then slander their family's food and start blackmailing them!
However, his family has been able to run a restaurant in the complicated environment of Yaoxing City for decades, so they are no pushovers. If he wants to rob his Sanshan Restaurant, this guy must have made a wrong calculation!
The conversation between the waiter and Xiao Chen immediately attracted the attention of some diners nearby. Many people looked at Xiao Chen with contempt.
Sanshan Restaurant is the largest restaurant in the entire Yaoxing City. It is famous for its cheap prices and good quality. Take the meal Xiao Chen ordered just now, for example: two roast chickens, five pounds of mutton, three pounds of beef, and a large bowl of rice, all for only two taels of silver!
This is already considered cheap in a restaurant. Of course, it cannot be compared with buying raw meat yourself. If you go to a butcher shop to buy lettuce, the total cost will be almost five hundred coins, half a tael of silver!
But this is a restaurant, rent and salaries are all costs!
Two taels of silver, the shopkeeper doesn’t make much!
Even so, this young man in white still wants to deny his debt. Everyone can’t stand it anymore!
This was the first time Xiao Chen encountered such a situation, and for a moment he didn't know how to deal with it. He looked at the waiter with a sneer on his face with a hint of apology, and whispered, "Brother Xiaoer, I forgot to bring my wallet. Can I write an IOU?"
The waiter was stunned when he heard this, and looked Xiao Chen up and down, his eyes narrowed slightly!
The other party did not actually slander them by saying that there was something wrong with the food, but instead made up another excuse and pretended to be so sincere. If he had not been blackmailed several times when he was young for kindly helping a few old ladies who fell to the ground, he might have actually believed it today!
But now...
"Sir, please pay immediately. Our shop has a small capital and a small profit, so we don't accept credit!" The waiter shook his head.
"Humph, how shameless! You come to the restaurant to eat without any money!"
"These days, there are too many people who want to take advantage!"
"Just now I saw him eating so fast and anxiously. I guess he hasn't had meat in a long time!"
The diners around laughed.
In such a chaotic world today, there are many people who dine and dine at restaurants. Many people don’t care if they can have a full meal and get beaten up!
The world is in a bad state and people are suffering!
So, when everyone heard Xiao Chen say that he didn't bring his wallet, they didn't believe him at all and all thought that he was a freeloader!
Sanshan Restaurant is divided into two floors. The first floor is the general area, and the second floor is the VIP area. Only guests who spend more than 20 taels can be seated.
At this time, on the second floor, two beautiful girls were also looking down.
"Miss, do you think that freeloader looks like Master Yushan?"
One of the girls in pink pointed at Xiao Chen in surprise.
The young girl in green sitting next to her stared at Xiao Chen's face for a few seconds and became dazed!
picture!
It’s so similar!
The young man in white below is exactly like her fiancé who died unexpectedly in a demonic disaster. They are at least 80% similar!
It’s just that this boy is younger and his facial features are more delicate!
The girl in green is Qing Yumei, the daughter of the Qing family in Zhongzhou. Today, she and her maid Fen Xiuxiu just returned from a trip and plan to return to the imperial capital to participate in the Taixu Sect's enrollment examination!
A hundred years ago, the Qing family was considered an extremely prominent family in Zhongzhou, ranking among the top ten in Zhongzhou. However, the family later fell into decline and gradually lost its former glory.
Today, they can only barely survive in Zhongzhou. Although a lean camel is bigger than a horse, they can still be called a big clan, but their glory is far less than before, and they are in danger of falling apart at any time!
Fortunately, Qing Yumei is extremely talented. At the age of seventeen, she has entered the master level. In addition, the ancestors of the Qing family left two Taixu Orders. This time, the Taixu Sect suddenly recruited internal personnel, and the Qing family had a chance to turn things around!
As long as Qing Yumei enters Taixu Sect, the situation of the Qing family will improve a lot in an instant. Although it is impossible to restore the former glory, with the support of Taixu Sect, those enemies in Qinghai who are eyeing the Qing family's property will at least be cautious and dare not suppress the Qing family as madly as they are now!
Liu Yushan was Qing Yumei's childhood sweetheart, and they were engaged when she was ten years old!
Later, in a demonic disaster a year ago, Liu Yushan died tragically. Qing Yumei was heartbroken and has not yet gotten over it!
“It’s very similar!”
Qing Yumei looked at Xiao Chen, dazed and lost.
"Hmph, what a pity that he only has a nice appearance, but is a scoundrel who eats and dine for free!" After recovering from her surprise, Fan Xiuxiu said indignantly.
She had to admit that the young man in white below had a very good appearance, even better than Liu Yushan.
But Liu Yushan was born into a wealthy family and was very talented. He became a martial artist when he was only twenty years old!
Except for appearance, he is superior to the young man in white in every aspect.
This young man in white is not even worthy of carrying Liu Yushan's shoes!
"Rou Rou, don't say that to him. Maybe he has his own reasons and really forgot to bring his purse!" Qing Yumei shook her head gently.
She has a beautiful appearance and a gentle and virtuous feeling. Although she is not as stunning as Huo Feng'er, Ye Lanxi and others, her temperament is refreshing!
"Miss, you are just too kind! You have been deceived so many times! Every time someone plays the victim in front of you, you can't help but give alms, but how many of those people tell you the truth? You are not going to help this freeloader again, are you?"
Fen Xiuxiu's little face was puffed up with anger, and she was obviously still brooding over the experience of being cheated by Qing Yumei before!
"Go and settle the bill for him, and then invite him up." Qing Yumei smiled gently.
"Miss..." Fen Xiuxiu cried out anxiously.
"Go! Meeting is fate, help if you can!" Qing Yumei interrupted softly.
"Hmph, Miss, you are just too kind! You often help others, but now you are being forced to get married, who is willing to help you?" Fen Xiuxiu muttered a few words under her breath and went downstairs reluctantly.
At this moment, the conflict between Xiao Chen and the waiter has escalated. The waiter issued an ultimatum: if Xiao Chen doesn't give him the money, he will call for help!
The restaurant employs a group of guards. Although they are not warriors, they are all strong and sturdy. Dealing with a handsome young man like Xiao Chen is like pinching a chicken!
"Brother Xiao Er, don't go too far! What happened today is my fault, and I don't want to attack you! Leave me the IOU and let me go, and I will come back to pay it back soon!" Xiao Chen warned in a low voice.
"Take action? Just you? You don't know how fierce the guards of my restaurant are?" The waiter sneered and gestured to several sturdy men standing not far away. Those men showed ferocious looks on their faces and stepped forward!
All of them were tall and strong, about 1.9 meters tall, with muscular bodies and fierce faces!
I don’t know if it was a requirement when recruiting, but these guys all had scars on their faces, and they looked like ruthless people who had seen blood.
As the guards with scars slowly approached, many people's hearts skipped a beat.
There are so many strong and powerful men around, and this freeloader looks so gentle. I'm afraid he's going to be beaten to death!
On the other side, the old shopkeeper, who was nearly seventy years old, naturally saw this scene as well. He just glanced at it twice and then continued to fiddle with the abacus beads in front of him with his head down, seemingly unwilling to intervene!
Every year, there are a few blind scoundrels who want to come to his place to eat and dine for free, but how can the free meal be so delicious!
Did he think these ferocious guards he hired were just there to eat for nothing?
"Second son, is someone causing trouble?"
Several burly men with scars quickly came in front of Xiao Chen, and one of them asked, although he was asking the waiter, his sharp eyes were fixed on Xiao Chen, with a hint of disdain at the corner of his mouth!
He can beat ten of these pretty boys!
