Chapter 207: Your Brother
"What's the matter?" Manager Huo asked with furrowed brows. He also made a mental note to demote this receptionist.
Since he just came, he didn't know that she had offended Rong Yue. He only felt she was delayed because Yan Bo didn't pick her up. Continue exploring on m-vl-em,pyr
"Made by Mr Feng Zhu, there is a reservation for a four people private booth."
Getting a private booth in the imperial restaurant was an achievement in itself.
The first floor held the lobby and two halls. Those two halls were general halls. Anyone who wanted a table for two or four people would go there.
Although it was a general hall, the ambience and design still made it very classy.
Also, the number of tables wasn't a lot and didn't feel crowded to guests.
The second floor was where the private booths were. Here, the guests had privacy as each booth was specially designed to give privacy to the customers.
It was more difficult to get as the number available to guests was even less than the space on the first floor.
The third floor was the private rooms, while the fourth room was the VIP floor, there were only two rooms on this floor, and one was permanently booked for the restaurant owner.
Earlier, Manager Yan had thought that Feng Yan and her mother were the honoured guests that booked the room on the VIP floor. Now that he realised that their booking was just a private booth, his face darkened with anger.
What kind of mix-up was this?
Didn't they know what kind of money they had? Instead of reflecting on himself, he felt that they were the wrong ones for accepting the elite treatment he had given them.
Manager Huo gave the security man who had tried to support Rong Yue a knowing glance.
The man nodded man stepped forward.
"Madam, Miss, let me show you the way to the second floor,"
Although they were both curious about why these two men came down to welcome Rong Yue, they were also embarrassed about how they had acted just now.
Since they were given a chance to leave, the mother, daughter pair followed the guard hurriedly.
Rong Yue glanced at Feng Yan's departing back for a second before looking back at her phone.
Other than when they went to the competition, this was the second time she was meeting her, and Rong Yue could already tell that this was someone that she wouldn't get along with.
After they left, the other security also left as he wasn't needed.
Manager Huo turned to Yan Bo, "Your bonuses for this month would be scraped off, and your position would be under review going forward."
This was an instruction from their big boss, and he had been unable to handle it. This kind of staff… there was no need to keep him!
But as an experienced manager, Manager Huo knew that he couldn't just end his work right now as it could cause a scandal.
However, that alone was enough to make Manager Yan fall to his knees in front of Rong Yue.
"Young Miss, please forgive me for having eyes but not recognising Mount Tai!" Yan Bo pleaded.
Rong Yue glanced at him and then looked away.
If he had not been stopped by the arrival of Minister Zhang and the other two, he would have had no intention of treating her like a normal human.
She was certain that he would have even added to it.
For people like him, she didn't dare to have any shred of pity.
"Embarrassing and causing a fuss to customers can have you relieved of your role, Mr Yan. I'm sure you still know how to behave yourself."
Manager Huo's words were firm and worked like magic. He stood up and gave her a deep bow.
Rong Yue said nothing, and when he left, Manager Huo let out a sigh of relief and turned to her.
"Miss Rong, let's go." Manager Huo and Minister Zhang said at the same time.
Rong Yue smiled slightly. Although it was a smile, it was nothing like the one Qin Yichen used to see.
Instead, it felt a little chilly and made the two of them feel like the room got colder.
"I still have something else to deal with. Just now…" Instead of completing her statement, Rong Yue played the recording she had made.
Hearing what the receptionist had said, Manager Huo's face darkened.
He really wanted to slap the receptionist.
While there were truly girls like that, it was already clear from Rong Yue's dressing that she was nothing like that.
Her outfit was laidback and dismissive. How could she compare her to those types of girls?
"Miss Rong Yue, I'll handle this matter, she would have to face a defamation lawsuit, and she would also be let go from our workplace…" if the imperial restaurant sacked her, getting work from another organisation would be very difficult.
He had said it in a low voice to make sure that the receptionist didn't hear. But even then, she kept glancing over to see if she could hear what they were saying.
Rong Yue didn't mind letting him do the work, so she nodded in agreement.
"Since you would handle it, I'll leave it to you. Thank you, Manager Huo."
They exchanged a few words, and Manager Huo collected the recording from her while escorting her to the top floor.
"Thankfully, your brother had booked the Imperial Restaurant. Even if the Deans are anxious, they are in a good mood from all the delicacies they have been served," Minister Zhang said in an attempt to clear the air.
However, Rong Yue's ears only caught one word.
"My brother?"
Since when did she have a brother?
She always wanted a younger sibling, but that was completely impossible with her family's condition.
However, Qin Heng's face flashed in her mind as she thought of a little brother.
"Miss Rong, Isn't President Qin your brother?"
