Chapter 132 Xu Shiyou was so angry he gritted his teeth.
The door to the private room was pushed open, and the waitress who had gone in to serve food and water hurriedly came out.
Her face was full of fear.
She walked up to Manager Cao, her breathing quickening.
She lowered her voice and said to Manager Cao in a very anxious tone:
"Manager Cao, something bad has happened. Mr. Xu in the private room is furious. He sees that almost all the dishes on the table have been served, but he can't find the wild quail soup. He's extremely angry and yelling at people. He wants you to go in immediately and give him an explanation."
Manager Cao did not show any panic when he heard the waiter say that.
Manager Cao is a veteran in the catering industry with over ten years of experience.
He had seen far too many wealthy customers lose their temper.
He knew very well that the reason these wealthy guests were angry was often not really because of the food itself.
It's not because they feel they've lost face.
As long as you find a way to give them enough face and offer them some tangible benefits, the matter will be easily resolved.
Manager Cao looked at the somewhat frightened waitress and reassured her in a very calm tone:
"Don't be afraid, calm down. This has nothing to do with you. Just go in and continue to provide good service. Go ahead, I'll go in and handle it in a bit."
Hearing the manager say this, the waiter felt a little more at ease, nodded, and turned to leave.
Manager Cao stood there, mentally reviewing his proposed solution.
He planned to waive the cost of some dishes for Xu Shiyou after they entered the private room.
At the same time, he also wanted to give Xu Shiyou two very expensive top-grade Wagyu beef dishes free of charge in the name of the restaurant.
He felt that apologizing in this way would definitely save Xu Shiyou's face and stop him from being angry.
After making up his mind, Manager Cao straightened his suit, walked to the door of the private room, pushed it open, and went inside.
As soon as Manager Cao entered the private room, Xu Shiyou, who was sitting in the main seat, immediately pointed at him and began to loudly interrogate him.
Xu Shiyou slammed his hand on the table and said in a very loud voice:
"Manager Cao, you're finally here. Explain yourself! What's going on? You clearly told me at the door that the wild quail soup was ready. Now all the dishes are served, where's the soup? Are you kidding me?"
Manager Cao quickly stepped forward, his face showing a very sincere apology.
He bent down and quickly apologized, saying:
"Mr. Xu, Mr. Xu, please don't be angry. This was really my fault. There was a little accident in the kitchen just now. The kitchen helper who was responsible for serving the soup tripped and fell, spilling the pot of soup. It was really a mistake on our part."
Manager Cao did not tell the truth; he made up a reason that something went wrong in the kitchen.
Then, he immediately presented his prepared solution:
"To express our deepest apologies, we're offering to waive all the seafood dishes on your table today. Also, I've already instructed the kitchen to immediately bring you two complimentary portions of our finest Australian Wagyu beef. We hope you can forgive our mistake and that it won't spoil your enjoyment of the meal."
After listening to Manager Cao's explanation and compensation plan, Xu Shiyou...
He thought about it for a moment.
Although I didn't get to drink the soup, the manager waived the cost of the seafood and even gave me two very expensive Wagyu beef dishes for free.
More importantly, the manager apologized to him so respectfully in front of Xiaomei, which greatly satisfied his pride.
Xu Shiyou glanced at Xiaomei beside him and found that she was looking at him with admiration.
Xu Shiyou felt he had saved face, so he waved his hand and stopped throwing a tantrum.
He began to speak:
"Alright, since it was the kitchen's mistake, I won't make things difficult for you. Hurry up and bring up the Wagyu beef, we're about to eat."
Manager Cao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Xu Shiyou would not pursue the matter further.
He nodded repeatedly, said a few kind words, and then left the private room.
After a while, the two people in the private room had almost finished eating.
Xiao Mei put down her chopsticks and wiped her mouth with a tissue.
She turned to Xu Shiyou and said:
"Brother Xu, I'm going to the restroom for a bit, I'll be right back."
Xu Shiyou is now very satisfied with Xiaomei, and he thinks tonight's arrangements are very good.
He stood up first and said to Xiaomei:
"Let's go, I also need to get some fresh air. I'll go with you to the restroom."
Then, the two of them pushed open the door to the private room and walked together into the restaurant's lobby.
The main hall of Xiting Restaurant is very large, with many booths in the middle.
Xu Shiyou and Xiaomei walked side by side.
Just then, Xu Shiyou casually turned his head and glanced at it.
Suddenly, his gaze fell on a booth by the window in the lobby.
He noticed that a man and a woman were sitting there.
Xu Shiyou stopped abruptly.
He opened his eyes wide and stared intently at that spot.
He cursed inwardly:
"Damn, isn't that Li Menghan, that show-off, and that car dealership saleswoman Dai Chongyao?"
Xu Shiyou saw it all clearly.
The two people sitting in that booth were Li Menghan and Dai Chong.
Seeing the two of them sitting there chatting and laughing while eating, Xu Shiyou was immediately filled with anger.
His anger flared up instantly.
You see, when he bought the car at the Ferrari dealership this afternoon, he originally planned to invite Dai Chong out for dinner.
But what did Dai Chong say to her back then?
Xu Shiyou clearly remembers that Dai Chong told him personally that her stomach had been very uncomfortable these past few days, and the doctor had told her to take medicine and rest, as she really couldn't eat food from outside.
Therefore, she initially declined Xu Shiyou's invitation.
But now?
Not only did she go out to eat, but she also ate this kind of high-end private cuisine!
Most importantly, she rejected Xu Shiyou in order to have dinner with Li Menghan, that pretentious poor guy!
Xu Shiyou felt he could no longer bear it.
Yesterday at school, Huo Qian, who is very beautiful, rejected him to his face because of Li Menghan, making him lose face.
He figured it was understandable that Huo Qian's family was wealthy and she had high standards.
But today, even Dai Chong, an ordinary car salesman in the store, actually respected Li Menghan but looked down on Xu Shiyou.
Who does Li Menghan even belong to?
So what if he was driving a beat-up secondhand car that had changed hands many times?
Xu Shiyou bought a brand new Ferrari for nearly ten million yuan today with cash!
Xu Shiyou was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
However, something even more unbearable was yet to come.
