Chapter 441: Pardon Me. Your Membership Was Revoked!
Huo Yao raised her brow slightly. After taking a few steps, she could hear something falling behind her loudly, followed by a tragic scream.
She paused and turned her head back slowly. However, the manager stood behind her as he smiled and blocked the view with his body.
“Miss... Can I help you?” The manager spoke in a respectful tone.
Huo Yao touched her nose. She looked at him for two seconds before replying. “Nope.”
The manager kept smiling and turned a deaf ear to the cursing behind them.
Huo Yao tilted her head and smiled a little before she headed back to her booth.
Huo Tingrui was almost done eating by the time she got back. He looked at Huo Yao. “What took you so long?”
Huo Yao picked up her chopsticks and ate as she said, “I bumped into an old acquaintance.”
“An acquaintance? Was it one of your schoolmates?” Huo Tingrui wiped his mouth with some tissues unhurriedly.
Huo Yao shook her head without explaining further. After all, there was no point in talking about the Lu family.
The smile on the manager’s face disappeared the instant Huo Yao left. Instead, he walked to the cashier.
He Xiaoman came out of the bathroom after a long time. At a close look, she walked in a little funny manner.
It did not cross her mind that she would be so unlucky today. After finally getting a reservation at the restaurant, she slipped and fell in the bathroom. Although not many people witnessed the fall, it made her feel really embarrassed.
Also, her butt was still sore from the fall.
He Xiaoman inhaled deeply. She kept up a poised smile as she headed towards her rich friends.
Two restaurant employees were standing at the booth and talking to her friends when He Xiaoman approached the table.
“Mrs. Lu, didn’t you say you were a member here?” asked one of He Xiaoman’s rich friends as she frowned.
He Xiaoman did not know what happened either. She nodded. “I am a member.”
“Then why did the manager say we didn’t have a reservation and told us to leave.”
He Xiaoman frowned before she turned to look at the manager standing on the side. “How can that be? I received a text confirming my reservation. Also, your staff gave us the table after verifying my reservation earlier.”
He Xiaoman retrieved her phone and found the confirmation text message.
The manager glanced at the message and said calmly, “Pardon me. This text message has already expired. Also, you don’t meet the membership requirements, so the membership has been revoked.”
He Xiaoman’s mind went blank when she heard what the manager said. “What do you mean by not meeting requirements? How could my membership have gotten revoked?”
Considering how rude He Xiaoman was to their boss’ daughter, she had no right to be a member, let alone dine at the restaurant. She could keep dreaming.
The manager pursed his lips without providing any explanation. He said impatiently, “Please dine somewhere else.”
He Xiaoman’s body shook in anger when the manager gave her such a lousy attitude.
He Xiaoman glanced at the three rich ladies whom she had invited for lunch. All their families and their husbands’ backgrounds surpassed hers.
She finally had the chance to bond with them over lunch and get closer to them. Now that the restaurant suddenly pulled this stunt on her, it was an utter embarrassment for all of them along with her. What would they think of her from now on?
