The Last Seat (Continued)
He walked into the Xiangxiang Pavilion under the stunned gaze of Manager Shen and said, "May I ask how to address you two? I am the owner of this restaurant!"
"Oh? Young Master Qin, I've long admired you!" Lin Shao had not spoken up until now, but instead it was the young man beside him who was exceptionally lively. With a face that showed no expression at all, he said proudly: "I am Ma Ding of the Ma Corporation, does Young Master Qin have any instructions?"
"Martin? Then how should I address Ma Tianxiong?" The strength of the Ma family was no less than that of the Qin family, and Qin Ming was shocked in his heart. The people from the Ma family were so humble in front of the Di family, it seemed that Shen Shu's worries were not unfounded.
"My father," Martin said proudly.
"Oh, so you're the young master of the Ma Corporation. Sorry about that! However, the seat at Xiangxiang Pavilion was already reserved by my friend before both of you arrived. As they say, first come first served. I hope you and your friend can arrange for another seat and let Xiangxiang Pavilion go to my friend." Qin Ming said with a slight smile.
"What did you say?!" Martin couldn't believe his ears, and Lin Shao deliberately shouted loudly: "Do you know who is sitting in front of you? You let Lin Shao give up his seat to these country bumpkins——oh, it turns out there's also a wild species, Ma Hao, Ma Hao, I didn't expect that such a mongrel like you could come to this kind of place to eat, and it's true, your little aunt is quite pretty, among the rich people in Yanjing, it wouldn't be difficult to help you find a few cheap uncles, but these friends of yours, haha, are really just like you, a nest of snakes and rats."
Martin suddenly looked at Ma Hao in the crowd with a provocative gaze, with an extremely disdainful expression, and a high-handed attitude.
"Martin - don't insult my little aunt, I'll kill you!!" Martin's face turned blue with rage, the veins on his forehead bulging out, and he rushed up to start a fierce fight.
Fortunately, Qin Ming stopped him in time. Although he didn't know what the relationship was between Martin and Ma Hao, no matter what, they couldn't cause trouble here and affect the image of Qin Garden. He looked at Martin coldly and said: "Martin, whoever you are, you're not welcome here! Please leave immediately!"
"Haha!" Martin was furious and laughed, pointing to another person and saying: "Do you know who he is? The Di Gongzi of the Hua Bai Group is not someone you can drive away just because you want to. I'm afraid that if he walks out of this door today, Qin Garden will have to close down tomorrow. I advise you to be more careful!"
Lin Shao? Di Lin??
Di Yu had been watching with a cold eye, the scene was a bit chaotic, and suddenly it involved many families, groups, and companies. It wasn't until he heard that the young man who hadn't spoken up until then was actually Di Lin, the son of Fourth Uncle, that he reacted. Weren't Fourth Uncle and Di Lin still in America discussing business? He hadn't heard from Xiaoyun about his return today, and he didn't expect to run into him here.
Qin Ming smiled faintly and said, "Since it's the young master of the Di family, that's even better. I believe Young Master Di should understand the principle of first come, first served even more than you do. The Di family is indeed not someone Qin Garden can afford to offend, but I believe Young Master Di is a reasonable person. Young Master Di, for the next dish, what would you like to eat? Just give me your orders and all expenses will be on me. I'm sure the Beijing reporter knows about the excellent upbringing of the Di family and will be delighted to add another brilliant stroke to the Di family's reputation."
Many people were shocked and intimidated by these words, especially the last sentence which was a threat to Dillin. Qin Ming's intention was that no matter what, he would let the newspaper report today's events. If Dillin stepped down and it wasn't aimed at Qin Yuan, then he would be the one being praised; otherwise, he would be the one being criticized.
Have to say, Qin Ming played this hand very beautifully.
"If I must eat here today, will 'Qin Gongzi' ask the security guard to escort me out?"
Dilin, who had been silent all along, finally spoke up. His voice was cold and chilling, making Feng Manager even more nervous and fearful, as if he was walking on thin ice. Today's matter is likely to be very difficult to resolve.
"There...since there's no seat here, why don't we go somewhere else to eat?" He Meng had just seen Ma Hao almost lose control and now her face looked quite unpleasant, softly suggesting, even she felt that this 'Lin Shao' wasn't easy to talk to.
"It doesn't matter if I tell you, in Yanjing probably not a single media outlet is willing to report this incident, do you believe it?" Di Lin smiled and stared at Qin Ming, slowly walking towards him until the two were close enough to clearly feel each other's breath.
Qin Ming felt an overwhelming pressure for the first time, also a human being, but behind him was the entire Di family, with a powerful force a hundred times stronger than the Qin family!
Huang Shaofeng also didn't dare to speak, their family background destined that he and Qin Ming couldn't become members of the angry youth, offending the Di family would implicate his own family.
As for Qin Garden, it has always been based on integrity, and Qin Ming is also in a difficult situation.
"What's going on? Isn't it just having a meal? Since there are people in this room, let's go to another one!"
The tense atmosphere was like a stagnant ice block. Di Yu let out a light laugh and walked up, saying casually.
Qin Ming sighed inwardly and explained, "This is the last seat in Qin Garden! If we don't eat here, then we'll have to go somewhere else to eat or wait for the next seat."
"Why don't we just go somewhere else to eat as Mengmeng said?" Shen Yao saw that Di Yu, who was treating them to dinner, had spoken up and continued to give everyone an excuse.
"Shen Yao is right!" Di Yu said with a look of deep agreement.
"Haha, you're more aware of the situation and smarter! I like you." Martin looked at Di Yu with a shameless expression. At this point, it didn't matter where they went to eat, what was important was saving face!
Di Yu smiled and pointed at him, saying: "I also like you very much! However, Master Ma, do you know that in Qin Garden there is a most noble room. Why don't you go to that room? As far as I know, this room is still vacant."
"What room? Isn't Xiangguan the last one?" Martin looked at Manager Shen in confusion.
"Manager Shen's body trembled, and he hastily said: "Xiao Xiang Guan really is the last seat, all seats have been taken. Di Gongzi, Ma Gongzi, I absolutely did not deceive you!"
"Oh? I remember that Qin Garden has another place called 'Penglai Pavilion', right?" Di Yu asked, looking at Manager Feng.
"How did you know about Penglai Pavilion?" Manager Feng said subconsciously, with a shock in his heart! Penglai Pavilion is not open to the outside world, and no more than three people know this matter!
"Is that a seat?" Lin Shao suddenly became extremely quick and coldly said: "Manager Feng, how do you explain this? Didn't you say there were no seats available earlier?"
Manager Feng explained nervously: "It's not that Mr. Di is being difficult, but the truth is that Penglai Pavilion is indeed empty right now, because a distinguished guest has reserved it and prepaid for a year's worth of meals! So without this guest's permission, Qin Garden doesn't have the authority to let other guests dine at Penglai Pavilion."
"Hmph, since it's already been booked by someone else, forget it." Although Dillin said this, he found it strange in his heart. What kind of person would book a spot for such a long time? The annual fee must be no less than 7 million, and ordinary people absolutely don't have this need. Even if it were him, Dillin, he wouldn't do something like this.
Manager Feng let out a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Feng Shu, how come I didn't know about this?" Qin Ming asked in puzzlement.
"Master, the old master didn't let me tell you about this matter!" Manager Feng replied in a low voice.
Di Yu's mouth curled up slightly, and he walked forward to pat Manager Feng's shoulder, saying: "Since that's the case, isn't the problem solved? Now as long as Manager Feng lets us go to Penglai Pavilion for dinner, we'll let Xiangxiang Hall be given to Master Ma and Lin Shao, and there won't be any need to argue."
"I just said you're clever - are you stupid or something, haven't you heard that Penglai Pavilion has been booked by someone?" Martin's face was full of disdain!
"Yes, sir, I'm afraid Qin Garden is fully booked now. I apologize for the inconvenience." Manager Feng apologized. The person in front of him was not only a guest at Qin Garden but also a friend of Young Master's, so he naturally didn't dare to offend him.
Di Yu shrugged and said surprisingly, "It's okay, I know this person. You can call him now and tell him that I'm going to eat now. I think he'll agree."
"Hmm~~" Manager Feng took a deep breath, sizing up the young man in front of him from head to toe, dressed in cheap clothes. He really couldn't understand how he had such a big attitude. Little did he know, he was very clear that it would take at least 6 million to book the Penglai Pavilion for a year!
This is just a meal, and it costs 6 million yuan a year. The guests of Penglai Pavilion have hardly come before, which means that they are spending 6 million yuan to buy a seat! Can such a person be recognized by the young people in front of him who are so rustic?
He was shocked, and Di Yu's friends were even harder to believe!
Dylan and Martin were also sneering.
"Don't look at me like that, Manager Feng. If you don't believe me, just make a phone call to ask this customer, tell him my name is 'Di Yu' and that's enough! One minute is all it takes." Di Yu said with a calm expression, smiling.
His calm demeanor left Manager Shen wavering, could it be that true experts don't show their faces?
