Chapter 16
Chapter 16
When the waiter heard that this young master was actually Li Tianyan himself, he looked at him in disbelief. He had seen this man before, but at that time, even though Li Tianyan was sought after by others, he didn’t have much aura around him, disregarding the fact that he had never practiced martial arts.
Although the person in front of him didn’t have any energy at all, he still gave people a strong sense of oppression. The waiter didn’t even dare to raise his head to look at the other person’s face and mistakenly thought the young master was deliberately hiding his aura.
Leading a few people into the private room, the waiter quickly served tea and snacks to them. He noticed that the little shuanger who had been walking behind Li Tianyan casually sat down next to him. Instead, Li Wu, the servant was busy, which confused him.
When Li Wu finished ordering, the waiter finally couldn’t help but whisper, “Brother Li Wu, why is your young master’s servant sitting together with the master?”
“What servant? It’s the young madam. Stop talking nonsense, go away; my young master is still waiting.” Li Wu rolled his eyes secretly in his heart; this guy had no eyesight at all.
“Yes, yes, I’ll go right away.” The waiter said yes, but his curiosity became even more intense. Could these be the ugly shuanger of the Cheng family who were rumored in Jincheng some time ago? It didn’t look like the rumors; he wasn’t as ugly as people described.
The waiter just came down from the private room and saw several more guests coming to the door. He immediately greeted them attentively, “I’m sorry dear guests; the private room is taken. Do you mind using the table in the hall?”@@@@
Jian Yuhao frowned in displeasure, “Didn’t I see someone go up just now? How come they have it but not me?”
“I’m really sorry; it was the last private room just now, the seat by the window of the attic,” the waiter explained with a smile on his face. He needed to be careful, these few people in front of him were all the rich young masters in Jincheng, and he couldn’t afford to offend them.
“You can ask the person who came up just now to free up the private room. We need to use it,” Ren Chijing said nonchalantly.
Although they were far away just now, they also noticed that among the three people who came in before them, there was only one entry-level warrior, and the other two weren’t even entry-level. What qualifications did such people have to compete with them for a private room?
“How about you wait a moment while the young one goes up to ask?” After the waiter finished speaking, he hurriedly turned back and ran to the private room upstairs.
.
“Brother Li Wu, can you let your young master move out from the private room? There are several young masters who want this private room,” the waiter looked embarrassed and discussed with Li Wu, who was standing outside. He didn’t want to offend people, but the people downstairs obviously had more weight than Li Tianyan, so he could only come up and pass on a message.
When Li Wu heard this, he immediately understood the people the waiter was talking about might have some background. He remembered when he went out with his young master, he had to do a lot of things to make people vacate private rooms. Who would have thought that the situation would change?
“Who are they downstairs?”
The ordered dishes were quickly brought out, dazzling Cheng Qi as he observed the delicious spread on the table. He was unsure which dish to start with.
“The soy-flavored eight-treasure duck is the signature dish here. You should try it first,” Li Tianyan suggested, noticing Cheng Qi’s enthusiasm for the dishes. He promptly placed a duck leg in his bowl before picking up his own chopsticks.
“Thank you, young master. You can eat too,” Cheng Qi graciously handed another duck leg to Li Tianyan, then indulged in a large portion himself. He practically savored the juicy, sauce-flavored duck leg.
Li Tianyan noticed that watching Chengqi eat surprisingly stimulated his appetite. Despite not being a food enthusiast, he found himself enjoying various dishes.
Cheng Qi never wasted food, leaving not even a drop of soup on the table. After the meal, feeling full, he leaned back in his chair and rubbed his belly.
“Why force yourself if you can’t eat?” Li Tianyan chuckled, observing Cheng Qi’s attempt to consume everything on the table.
“I’m not forcing it; I’m just a little full,” Cheng Qi replied, satisfied, patting his bulging belly.
.
As Li Tianyan escorted Cheng Qi away from the private room, Jian Yuhao and his group happened to witness it. Seeing the three people descending from upstairs, everyone immediately understood that the one causing trouble earlier was this guy.
Seeing Li Tianyan again, Cheng Si’s face displayed disgust. Recalling the meeting at Li Mansion that day, she felt a surge of frustration, nearly grinding her teeth.
“It’s actually Li Tianyan in that private room. I thought he was hiding in Li Mansion and didn’t dare to come out to see people,” Ren Chijing remarked, observing Li Tianyan’s descent. “But why do I sense something different about him today?”
“What difference can there be? He’s still the same waste. If it hadn’t been rumored that Li Tianyan had spiritual roots, who would fawn over such a waste?” Jian Yuhao sneered, recalling on those who sought to please and flatter Li Tianyan.
Cheng Si, seated at the same table, felt a sting upon hearing this, displaying a somewhat aggrieved look on her face. Zhou Miaomiao couldn’t help but gloat, noting how the Cheng family seemed eager to curry favor with Li Tianyan through Cheng Si.
“Li Tianyan has gone too far. He shamelessly pestered Xiao Si and then smeared her everywhere after being rejected. Such a person deserves a lesson,” Ren Chijing glared at Jian Yuhao, expressing resentment and comforting Cheng Si.
Jian Yuhao acknowledged his mistake and hastily responded, “Don’t worry, Xiao Si. I’ll stand up for you. Let’s see if Li Tianyan dares to talk nonsense in the future.”
Cheng Si, trying to be tactful, shook her head. “Forget it, maybe he didn’t mean to.” Despite her attempt at composure, the sadness on her face deepened, evoking sympathy from those present who silently pledged support for Cheng Si in their hearts.
