Chapter 126: Turning Misfortune into Blessing, Task 2 Completed Successfully
"It’s ridiculous! I’ve dined at other Western restaurants and never once found tendons in my steak!" Liang Youbin complained angrily to Li Jixiang. "I’ll complain if they don’t comp this meal!"
"Sir, I am terribly sorry for the unpleasant dining experience... Here is a 50% off coupon for the restaurant. Next time you come, you can enjoy a 50% discount..." In an effort to calm things down, the waiter brought over a stack of 50% off coupons, "And we’ll also give you a 50% discount for this meal. What do you think?"
"Forget it, I’ll let it slide since I dined with such a beautiful woman. Just make sure it doesn’t happen again!" Liang Youbin tried hard to suppress his smirk, pretending to be generous after getting a bargain.
The waiter quickly brought a new steak, and after Liang Youbin fiddled with it using his fork and knife and confirmed there were no tendons, he began to eat.
Throughout the meal, he boasted to Li Jixiang about the many Western restaurants he had visited in Beijing and the countless five-star hotels he had stayed in...
However, Li Jixiang just hummed in agreement, uninterested in these matters. But she didn’t want to interrupt Liang Youbin’s endless talk; at least his eating noises weren’t as noticeable while he talked...
By the end of the meal, he hadn’t mentioned a word about the final payment. Without getting the money, she couldn’t leave.
"Mr. Liang? Should we discuss the final payment now?" Since he showed no intention, she took the initiative.
"Oh, the final payment? Ah! Right, the final payment! Hey, look at me, my head is filled with Miss Li the beauty, how could I forget about settling the final payment? Why don’t we go to the bar to have a drink and talk?" Liang Youbin pointed to a dim corner of the hotel restaurant.
