Chapter 126: Hot Gossip
They arrived at the Lamian Palace restaurant, which at noon looked crowded.
As soon as they entered, old Leo, the owner of the restaurant, saw them. He walked quickly towards them.
Mel smiled when she saw old Leo. Every time she saw him, she automatically remembered the old Chinese movie she watched with her Grandpa, Shaolin Popey. He was so cute with a fat body, bald head, and a round face. He looks similar to the child actor who often wears round black sunglasses.
Old Leo immediately greeted and invited them both into the VIP room, which is usually used by the members of ’Play Hard & Eat Hard.’
Back in college, almost every day, they stopped by this restaurant. Because all the dishes at this restaurant tasted so good. So far, they had never found a Chinese restaurant that could match Lamian Palace. Although the taste is good, the price is low. Because at first, Old Leo targeted X University students as customers.
Many campus alumni keep coming back here after they graduate because that Lamian Palace is more famous. In the era of social media, Lamian Palace customers always share reviews. Almost all of them give a five-star rating, making this place even more crowded. Now, the visitors are not only from X students but also from many other universities. There is often a queueing at the door during lunchtime.
Eat hard and Pray hard members are lucky to be VIP customers and have a deluxe room, so they can come anytime without queueing.
The Play hard and Eat Hard members don’t know that Mel has already paid for their meals for the next 50 years by giving money to Old Leo to rebuild this restaurant and make it bigger.
"Mel, Harry, just the two of you? Where are the others?" Old Leo asked with his Chinese accent, which still felt thick, even though he lived in this city.
