398 Taking the Menu
Ye Xuan raised his nose and sniffed the fragrance of the tea. His internal organs felt like they had been purified.
“Your tea-making skills are getting better and better. Not bad.”
Ye Xuan praised her. He picked up the small teacup and blew on it before taking a sip.
“I heard that the top floor of the Jinling TV Tower only provides five tables every night. Let’s go take a look at it tonight.”
“Five tables? It feels so high-end.”
Liu Yanran looked at Ye Xuan and hugged her teacup in a daze.
Ye Xuan was expressionless. He placed his hands on his knees and shook his head slightly like an adult.
“We’ll know at night if it’s a gimmick or if it’s really high-end. Let’s drink some tea and set off in high spirits, lest there are no more seats.”
“Okay.”
Liu Yanran nodded.
…
The Jinling TV Tower stood in the center of the city. It was 88 floors tall and looked especially unique among the surrounding high-rise buildings.
At the top of the television tower was a flat circular building. From afar, the entire television tower looked like a mushroom.
At this moment, Ye Xuan and Liu Yanran had already arrived at the underground parking lot of the television tower. They parked the Rolls-Royce Phantom Extended edition.
Then, they got into the transparent panoramic elevator and slowly arrived at the top floor.
With the height of the 88th floor, it took some time to take the elevator up. Fortunately, it was a panoramic elevator. Looking out from the elevator, the horizon was right in front of them.
Accompanied by the afterglow of the setting sun and the waves of the sea, the scenery was indeed a rare beauty.
The elevator steadily arrived at the 88th floor. As soon as the door opened, a few beautiful women in formal attire welcomed them.
They spoke in unison.
“Welcome. Have a good meal!”
Ye Xuan nodded slightly and looked straight ahead. He led Liu Yanran straight to the counter.
Looking at the busy beautiful receptionist, he spoke seriously.
“Help me arrange a seat.”
“Little kid, which table did you book? Table 1, 2, 6, 8, or 9?”
She said what she wanted to say as if she was teasing a child. Then, she looked at Liu Yanran and waited for an answer.
When Liu Yanran heard the word “appointment”, she was at a loss and asked in confusion.
“Do we need to make an appointment to eat here?”
Hearing this, the receptionist roughly understood.
“Uh… Yes, ma’am. You need to make an appointment to have a table here. I’m really sorry…”
“Why must we make an appointment? Isn’t there an empty table there?”
Ye Xuan was also a little surprised. He didn’t expect to have to make an appointment and drove here directly.
“It’s because the boss has a rule. I’m really sorry for making the two of you come here for nothing. Sorry, sorry…”
The receptionist bowed and kept apologizing to Liu Yanran. Her attitude was sincere, making Liu Yanran feel a little embarrassed.
Meanwhile, the boss could not help but be puzzled when he saw this scene. He thought that it was another guest who was here to argue.
Therefore, he walked over and swept his gaze across the two of them. Finally, his gaze landed on the receptionist’s face and he asked.
“What happened?”
When the receptionist saw the boss, her heart calmed down.
“The boss doesn’t have anything to do. It’s just that this lady came without an appointment. I’m explaining to them.”
“Oh…” The boss nodded and looked at the unfamiliar Liu Yanran.
“Then let’s do it in a businesslike manner.”
As he spoke, he was about to leave when he suddenly saw a seven or eight-year-old brat under the counter.
He couldn’t help but take a few more glances curiously. In the end, when he saw the child’s face, he was stunned.
“Chairman—Chairman—Chairman… Chairman Ye?!!”
The boss exclaimed loudly, scaring the receptionist and Liu Yanran.
Then, he hurriedly ran out of the counter and squatted down in front of Ye Xuan. He looked at him at eye level and spoke.
“Chairman Ye, why are you here? Why didn’t you tell me that you were here? I didn’t even know that you were here. I almost neglected you.”
When the receptionist saw her boss treat a child like this, she was dumbfounded and her face was filled with shock.
“B-Boss, about the top floor…”
“Add another table for Chairman Ye. Rules are dead, while people are living. Hurry up and greet them. Spare the best seats for Chairman Ye. After all, the chairman of the Dinglong Corporation is here.”
After the boss finished speaking, he thought about it and felt that something was wrong. He corrected himself.
“That’s not right. Cancel all the appointments tonight and leave all the seats for Chairman Ye. What’s the point of squeezing in to eat with others? Hurry up and do it.”
The receptionist listened to the boss’s instructions and just as she touched the mouse, she saw Ye Xuan pat the boss’s arm.
“No need. Just add another table. Just do what you have to do. There’s no need to change anything because I’m here. That would be boring.”
After Ye Xuan said this with a smile, he brought Liu Yanran to a seat with a good view.
When the boss heard the words “that would be boring”, he was frightened. He looked at the receptionist and spoke in a panic.
“Do as Chairman Ye says. If Chairman Ye needs anything, serve him unconditionally. Arrange for two attendants to guard their tables the entire time later. I’ll go to the kitchen to inform them first. Remember, don’t do anything that goes against Chairman Ye’s wishes or makes him unhappy. Do you understand?”
After the boss finished speaking, he wiped the cold sweat off his face and left in a hurry.
This was the first time the receptionist had seen her boss so flustered. She was so frightened that her face turned pale and she did not come back to her senses for a long time.
From this short interaction, it was not difficult to discover that an extraordinary person had really come tonight…
After realizing this, the receptionist wiped her cold sweat. Even the hand holding the mouse trembled slightly.
Then, she quickly called a few attendants over and spoke to them seriously.
Meanwhile…
Just as Ye Xuan and Liu Yanran walked up the stairs and reached the table next to the panoramic floor-to-ceiling window, before they could sit down, the attendant brought over two high-end massage chairs and replaced the ordinary seats.
Liu Yanran was flattered and looked at the attendant in a daze.
Meanwhile, Ye Xuan didn’t feel that there was anything unnatural. He sat down and pressed the switch of the massage chair to enjoy himself comfortably.
After a while, seeing that the menu had not been presented, Ye Xuan was a little puzzled. He propped himself up and looked at the attendant standing beside him in a daze.
Before he could speak, the attendant bowed.
“Chairman Ye, please speak.”
Ye Xuan was stunned for a moment, but he returned to normal in an instant and threw out his doubts.
“Why isn’t the menu here yet?”
“Chairman Ye, our boss has already instructed the kitchen to serve all the dishes in the restaurant. If there’s anything that Chairman Ye likes to eat, feel free to instruct us. We’ll pass it on to the kitchen.”
All… the dishes?
Ye Xuan was really stunned this time.
It was such a big restaurant. There were all kinds of dishes. This, this, this… Could this table accommodate all of them?
