Chapter 11: Youran Cuisine
Translator: Vicky_ Editor: Vicky_
Luckily, there wasn’t much traffic, and when they arrived at Youran Cuisine, it was only around 6:10.
Su Yicheng parked the car. The second the car was parked, Anran, who was riding shotgun, quickly released her seatbelt. She got out of the car, her movements flowing smoothly and efficiently.
Su Yicheng was shocked, and he looked at her standing next to the car with a reserved stance as she looked everywhere. He couldn’t help but shake his head and laugh. He knew that she was still shy over the kiss. Her face was red the entire way here.
Anran was really shocked by the kiss. She was already shocked and had not expected him to help her put on her seatbelt so intimately. It had already made her very uncomfortable. She did not expect him to kiss her at all, especially not the kind of kiss that only happened between couples. At that time, she was so shocked that she could not react. By the time she reacted, they were already on their way to the restaurant. She had angrily turned around and asked him why he kissed her. However, he turned around to look at her and innocently said, “Isn’t it right and proper for the husband to kiss his wife?”
This sentence made her speechless. That’s right. They were a married couple. Even if they were even more intimate, it would all be normal.
When Su Yicheng got out of the car, the two walked into Youran Cuisine. Anran looked left and right, but her gaze never landed on him. Su Yicheng was happy. He smiled and did not say anything.
Anran had reserved the Accord on the second floor. She had previously been here to check out the room. The private room was laid out very well and had a window sill. Under the window sill was the Youran Cuisine’s small-sized garden. From this position, they would have the view of the luxuriant flowers. If they opened the window, they would be able to smell the fragrance of the flowers.
Anran and Su Yicheng were led upstairs by the server. When they turned the corner and walked upstairs, before they entered their private room, they saw a bunch of people surrounding the doorway and discussing something.
“This room is good. Although it is somewhat small, the surroundings are good. I’m picking this one. We don’t want the room from before. Let’s change it to this one,” Anran heard a voice say from inside the room.
Before Anran went in, another voice also said, flatteringly, “Since Bureau Chief Tong likes this room, I’ll change it for you immediately. Go and inform the kitchen and change Bureau Chief Tong’s food to this room.”
“Yes, manager,” The server inside said.
Anran furrowed her eyebrows. Just as she was about to walk in, a waitress came out. “Wait a minute.” Anran stopped her and then turned around and went into the private room. She saw a man around the age of sixty standing at the window sill with his back to her. On the side stood Youran Cuisine’s manager, Manager Zhang, with an apologetic smile.
......
There was also a young man and a young woman in the room. On the head seat sat a somewhat stout married woman. When the people present saw Anran come in, they were all shocked and did not understand what she wanted to do.
Anran looked at them and turned around and said to Manager Zhang, who was standing, “Manager, I have already reserved this private room a week ago.”
That Manager Zhang was shocked. She looked at Anran and then turned around to look at the server who had arrived behind Anran. He looked at him, questioning whether or not Anran was speaking the truth.
That server nodded and, with some difficulty, answered, “Yes, manager. Miss Gu already reserved this room last week. Her reservation is 6:30 tonight.”
Manager Zhang nodded in understanding. Then, he turned around, smiled at Anran, and said, “My apologies, Miss Gu. This is our restaurant’s carelessness. I thought that this room was not reserved and therefore just gave it to Bureau Chief Tong. How about this? I will immediately arrange another room for you, Miss Gu. We will also take twenty percent off your meal tonight.”
Anran shook her head and said, “Today is my mother’s birthday. She likes flowers. I reserved this room because you can see the garden from the window. Therefore, I don’t want to change rooms.” fr eewebnovel.com
“This…” Manager Zhang was a bit troubled. Reasonably speaking, Miss Gu did not have any reason to change rooms. After all, she had reserved it a week ago. However, Bureau Chief Tong was the Chief of the City Construction Bureau and had a good relationship with the boss. He couldn’t afford to offend him.
“Miss, how about this? We won’t trouble Manager Zhang anymore. If you give us this room, then I will take care of all of your spendings tonight. What do you think?” A man who was standing to the side said.
Anran turned around and looked at the man. “My apologies. This is not a problem that can be solved with money. If this was any other time, I wouldn’t have a problem with giving it to you guys. However, today is my mother’s birthday. There aren’t many things that I can give her as her daughter. Therefore, I want her to be able to happily eat a meal in a comfortable environment on her special day. That is why I cannot give you guys this room.”
“Why is this woman so stubborn? Today, I am treating my sister and the others to this meal. She likes flowers. My mother also likes flowers. Why can’t you just give it to us? We already said that we would take care of your bill tonight. What else do you want?” A woman who was standing to the side said in a tone that showed that she looked down on her. Before Anran was able to open her mouth, she directly said to Manager Zhang, who was standing there, “Manager Zhang, we definitely want this room. It is up to you what happens to her. Also, send up the food I just ordered in around ten minutes.”
“Why are you so rude and unreasonable?” Anran was extremely furious. They were clearly kicking people around because of their position.
That woman looked at Anran and then somewhat scoundrelly said, “This is the way I am. What are you going to do to me?”
“You…” Anran was very angry. She wanted to talk reason into her. However, Su Yicheng, who was behind her, grabbed her hand. She turned around to look at him and saw a small smile on his face. He shook her head at her and softly said to her, “I got this.”
“Xiaomin.” The man that was standing at the window sill turned around and said to his daughter in a strict tone.
“Father…” That woman who had the name Xiaomin went over to grab his hand and coyly said, “Father, I won’t change rooms. The air in this room smells very good. I like this room.”
“You!” That Bureau Chief Tong helplessly patted her hand and turned around, about to say something to Anran. However, he saw Su Yicheng, who was standing beside her. He was shocked and momentarily unable to react.
