Chapter 823: Who’s Paying the Bill
The waiter rolled his eyes.
"How would I know if she just left temporarily or what? Why should I care if soone leaves in the middle of a al? To be honest, as long as there’s soone at the table, even if she’s gone for a long ti, it’s none of my business! But now all of you have left, so who am I supposed to ask for the bill?" the waiter said confidently.
She brought over the nu: "Enough talk, three hundred and two yuan, let’s round off the two yuan, just give three hundred yuan. You’d better pay up quickly, or else people might accuse you of dining and dashing, and that’s a bad reputation."
In fact, when the waiter saw Nan Mingzhu running out of the restaurant crying, she knew Nan Mingzhu wasn’t coming back. But would she dare stop Nan Mingzhu?
She didn’t dare, so she had no choice but to corner these young won who were invited.
"How did it co to this much?" the young won were dumbfounded.
They thought it would be at most sixty yuan, sothing they could scrape together, but who knew, the table had racked up a bill of over three hundred yuan.
"What’s so much about it? These are your orders; look at this, all delicacies! Just the shark fin alone costs thirty yuan a serving, you ordered six, that’s one hundred eighty yuan;
And this sea cucumber, you wanted the best, this plate alone costs 20 yuan; and—"
The waiter listed items one by one, and based on their orders, the three hundred yuan wasn’t even overcharged.
"But, but, we really were just invited by Nan Mingzhu," a girl with phoenix eyes said.
The girl with big eyes and a long braid suddenly pointed at Leng Xiangchen, who was eating at Jiang ngyu’s table: "Who said everyone at our table left? He’s still there, isn’t he?
He’s the main guest invited by Nan Mingzhu, we’re all just companions invited by her. Even if Nan Mingzhu left, her uncle is still here, so it’s not our place to pay the bill, is it?"
ngyu hadn’t intended to get involved in this matter; after all, it was Nan Mingzhu’s invitation, and they should pay for what they ate, otherwise, how would they learn their lesson about accepting anyone’s invitation?
However, the heat had reached her uncle here, so she couldn’t ignore it.
She stood up: "Let ask you, when this gentleman ca over, had you started eating at your table?"
The young won were dumbfounded at ngyu’s words.
Because when Leng Xiangchen ca over, their table actually hadn’t started eating as the main courses weren’t served yet.
Especially since Nan Mingzhu discovered Gu Dongxing, she was engrossed in admiring him and hadn’t thought of suggesting starting the al.
And Leng Xiangchen, over there, hadn’t even picked up his chopsticks. Upon hearing Nan Mingzhu call out "Jiang ngyu," he shalessly ran over.
"Isn’t that right? Your table hadn’t even started eating, and this gentleman just ca over because he slled our at, asked to join us, and I agreed to his request.
He didn’t eat or drink over there, and he’s not familiar with you, do you think it’s appropriate for him to pay for your al?"
The young won were at a loss for words.
In fact, not only had Leng Xiangchen not eaten at that table, but even Nan Mingzhu hadn’t. The only ones who actually ate at that table were these four young won.
Moreover, as the host was still entangled with Gu Dongxing and hadn’t suggested starting the al, they couldn’t resist the temptation of the delicious dishes, plus they were hungry, so they started eating on their own.
Truthfully, the food at that table was only consud by them.
In fact, when the shark fin was served, after eating their portions, they thought the "vermicelli" was too little, seeing that the portions for Nan Mingzhu and Leng Xiangchen were uneaten, the four of them split those two bowls of "vermicelli" and ate them.
How could they have possibly known that the seemingly small and delicious bowl of "vermicelli" was actually the legendary shark fin?
