Chapter 222 - Under Dressed
After Jiang Yue and Fu Jin made sure that Fu Yi was going to be fine, the duo decided not to linger and went for a little sightseeing and to have dinner.
It was Jiang Yue's first time visiting the most expensive city of the B country so Fu Jin made sure to tour her a little. He introduced her to his favorite places in the city and promised to accompany her that weekend to shop.
"This is a high-end restaurant."Jiang Yue stated as she pouted at Fu Jin. After they arrived at the restaurant, Jiang Yue immediately noticed that they were about to enter into a very high-end establishment.
Of course, Jiang Yue had no problems with places like this. But this time, she was clearly underdressed for the place. Fu Jin was still establishing his own name in the city. She didn't want to embarrass her husband.
"What's wrong?" When he looked at her, a realization crossed his features.. He smiled at Jiang Yue before holding her waist and kissing her head. "You look fine. Don't worry about it."
Jiang Yue just rolled her eyes and didn't say anything as Fu Jin led her inside the restaurant. Since Fu Jin had already asked Chu Yang to make a reservation, the couple easily made their way to the room.
However, before they could open the VIP room door, a commotion was heard. The couple looked at the group of men and women their age, who was trying to argue with one of the attendants.
"I already said that I have called earlier to reserve. Are you saying that I'm lying?" the man wearing a gray suit said in a condescending tone. "Do you still want to keep your job?"
The group was composed of four people. Two men in a suit and two women in elegant dresses and high heels. All of them were good looking and their appearances just screamed money and luxury.
"Mr. Fan please pardon us. But I really don't see any reservations under your name. Please don't create trouble in our humble establishment." the attendant respectfully said.
"Tong, let's have him call his manager," a lady wearing yellow dress suggested.
"Hey, call your manager. Tell him, Mr. Fan from the Fan Industries wants to see him." the man said.
The youngsters thought they would be able to intimidate the attendant, but to their surprise, the attendant just calmly said that their manager was currently not available.
Seeing the conversation going nowhere, Jiang Yue tugged at Fu Jin's sleeve and gestured for them to go inside, so they could order for their dinner.
However, before the duo could open the door, a jade-like hand reached out towards the door, blocking both Fu Jin and Jiang Yue's way.
The couple turned their eyes to see the girl wearing the yellow dress, blocking their way with her hand, her doe-like eyes glued to Fu Jin.
"I'm sorry to disturb you, but my friends and I have encountered a problem with our room. Can you... can you give us this room instead? Don't worry... we will pay you, and I could even give you some extra," the girl said in a coy way.
This instantly earned a frown from Jiang Yue. This girl was trying to flirt with her husband in front of her. Did she has a death wish?
While waiting for her reply, the girl in yellow stared at Fu Jin like she was about to devour him. As a rising starlet, she was somewhat confident that the handsome man in front of her would agree to her request.
"Bei Ye," she heard the man's low voice. However, what came next almost made the woman in yellow vomit blood in anger. "Remove this woman in front of me."
Another tall man instantly approached her and moved her arm away from the door. "What are you doing? Don't you know who am I?" she hissed, glaring at the man named Bei Ye.
The girl initially thought that Fu Jin would agree to her offer, so she was extremely surprised when Fu Jin had his bodyguard literally remove her from the door. As a result, her intended hiss came out as a scream. This immediately attracted the attention of some people, including the girl's companions.
"What is going on here? Why are you harassing our companion?" the second girl in the group asked. Then she turned her attention to the girl in yellow. "Fan Linwen are you okay?"
"This man suddenly touched me." Fan Linwen lied. "I just asked them nicely if they could give this room to us. I have even told them that we could pay for it."
"You... How dare you touch my sister? Do you know who am I? Do you know who my sister is?" the man named Fan Tong asked while pointing his finger at Fu Jin. He was the one, who was arguing with the attendant a while ago.
Fan Tong was the CEO of Fan Industries, one of the leading companies in the food business. He was currently with his sister Fan Linwen, a budding starlet, as well as his friend Jia Yan, another prominent figure in the movie industry and Ma Xuehui, the girl that he was wooing.
He had originally wanted to impress Ma Xuehui by using his connections to get them inside the Celestial Garden: the most prominent five-star restaurant in this country. Who would have thought that the attendant wouldn't get intimidated by his status?
As a result, Fan Tong wanted to vent his frustration on someone.
