Chapter 24 - Docked pay
Yunfeng almost spat on his face. He slammed the onion soup on the table. "SIR. YOUR. ORDER." He said, gritting his teeth. His face had almost gone stiff from all the fake smiling.
Muchen just weirdly gazed up at him. "I said I don’t want it, ah."
Yunfeng picked up the bowl again and placed it on the tray. "Suit yourself, sir." He rushed to the kitchen and poured the soup down the drain.
The other waiters all gazed at him crazily. The manager, who was rarely around, came up to him with a frown. "What is this? Why did you pour it out?"
"Our patron did not want it, sir," Yunfeng said with a forced smile. "He said it’s not to his taste."
The whole kitchen started to murmur. "There is no way," the cook came up to him, scooped some of the remaining soup from the bowl with a finger, and tasted it. "This tastes good."
"But our star client seems to hate it," Yunfeng massaged his brow.
The manager frowned deeply. "It must be your service that he found lacking. Go apologize to him."
Yunfeng sharply gazed at him. "I can assure you I didn’t do anything... I just served him the soup. He wanted it to be remade so many times even so I..."
"It’s our fault for not satisfying our customer, so go apologize." With a simple sentence, he left the kitchen.
Yunfeng tightly clutched the tray in his hand. His hand, still in a cast, was clenching so tightly that his muscles were popping out.
