Sean Young snapped back to reality and kicked his friend: "What are you talking about! That's a goddess, a goddess! You're the real troublemaker here!"
"Oh, you saw your goddess? Where is she? Let’s go meet her!" The group of jokers crowded around. "Anyone who can make Sean Young turn over a new leaf must be some kind of goddess!"
"Cut it out! If she were just a regular person, I’d let you mess around." Sean Young said seriously, "She’s someone important. If you mess with her, you might bankrupt your whole family."
"Sean, come on! We’re all grown-ups now. You think you can scare us with stories for three-year-olds?" someone nearby chimed in. "How could she be that mysterious? Is she the little princess of the Yin Family?"
"Exactly! In Newport City, only the little princess of the Yin Family could have that kind of status, right?"
"Hey, you bunch of animals, the Yin Family's little princess is only three years old this year. You guys really have no shame?"
"Hey, don’t frame me! We’re just talking about the Yin Family’s power, not going after their princess. Don’t get me in trouble! This is Newport City! That’s Yin territory!"
Sean Young listened as his friends’ conversation drifted further and further off-topic. He stopped paying attention, turned, and ran out.
"Hey, Sean, wait up!"
...
He could still hear his friends behind him, but Sean Young ignored them and ran to the door of room 303. Just as he was about to knock, the door cracked open and he peeked inside. There were more than twenty people in the room, all looking like successful professionals.
Sean Young, for once, chickened out and stepped aside.
Julia Yu returned to her seat and continued chatting with others.
After a while, the door opened again and someone brought in more dishes.
Julia Yu was stunned for a moment.
She’d already paid the bill, so why were there more dishes?
"Did you order these?" Julia Yu asked.
Everyone shook their heads: "No, none of us ordered anything!"
Julia Yu asked the server, confused, "Is there some mistake?"
"No mistake. These were specially ordered for you by Mr. Xiong," the server replied with a warm smile.
Julia Yu instantly understood.
That kid, honestly...
Julia Yu smiled and said to everyone, "Since the food’s here, let’s eat. We shouldn’t let the chef’s effort go to waste."
Everyone agreed, "Yes, yes, wasting food is shameful."
Fay Yang glanced at the new dishes. They were the restaurant’s signature plates, and each one cost several hundred yuan.
Fay Yang couldn’t help but make a snide remark: "It’s nice to be young. You go to the restroom and people send you food."
Everyone looked at Fay Yang, thinking she was really unnecessary today.
No wonder, after all these years since graduation, she hadn’t gotten very far.
There really is a gap between people.
Julia Yu didn’t bother with her and kept encouraging the others to eat.
