Jiang Ran continued, “I’m already very generous. If you fire one of her, you can save your entire store. What’s wrong? Is it not worth it?”
The manager did not know if what Jiang Ran said was true, but to be on the safe side, he did not dare to bet on his own coffee shop.
So after thinking about it, he finally decided to fire the waitress. “Hurry up and pack your things. You don’t have to come to work from tomorrow onwards.”
The waitress never thought that her boss would really fire her because of this unreasonable woman.
“Manager, I didn’t mean to say that…” She hurriedly defended herself, but the manager was not willing to listen to her at all and pushed her out of the door.
Jiang Ran smiled proudly and said to the manager, “Alright, I’m in a good mood now. Bring out all your signature items.”
“Ah, alright.” The manager quickly bowed and left.
Although Jiang Yu felt that Jiang Ran was going overboard, this was after all an internal matter of the coffee shop, and it was not appropriate for her to interfere. Therefore, she could only stand aside with Kang Xue and continue drinking the coffee in her cup.
However, Jiang Ran did not intend to let Jiang Yu off.
She walked to the side of Jiang Yu and Kang Xue’s seats and bent down to sniff Jiang Yu’s coffee. She frowned and said with disdain, “Jiang Yu, why don’t you order something more advanced?”
Jiang Yu didn’t look at her and only said, “If you’re willing to order something more advanced, then you can order it. I can drink whatever I want. It’s none of your business.”
“Is this your attitude when you talk to your sister?” Jiang Yu covered her mouth and laughed. “Fortunately, I have a good temper. If I had the same temper as Kang He, I’m afraid your fate would be many times worse than now!”
Kang Xue paused and raised her head to look at Jiang Ran in surprise. “How, how did you know Kang He?!”
“Just like that. We’re very good friends now.” Jiang Ran shrugged and did not tell her how she met Kang He.
Kang Xue’s hands kept shaking. She knew that Kang He usually did not easily make friends with others. Since she was willing to bend down to be friends with Jiang Ran, it meant that she was plotting something unknown.
Her heart turned cold and she quickly held Jiang Yu’s hand. “Jiang Yu, I’m done drinking. Let’s go back first.”
Jiang Yu nodded. “Okay.”
However, Jiang Ran blocked their way. “We’re all from the same school. Why don’t you wait for me here? We’ll go back together after I finish eating.”
Kang Xue said bluntly, “We don’t know you. If you want to eat, you can eat by yourself. We are in a hurry, so we will go back first.”
With that, Kang Xue and Jiang Yu left the coffee shop together.
“You!” Jiang Ran stomped her feet in anger.
This Kang Xue was influenced by Jiang Yu!
Just as she was about to go back, the manager on duty came over with a plate of pastries and a cup of steaming hot coffee.
“Hello, customer. This is the meal you ordered.”
Jiang Ran glanced at it and said, “I know, but I don’t want to eat it now.” Then she took her bag and wanted to leave.
The manager quickly stopped her. “Customer, you haven’t paid yet.”
“Paid? Paid for what? Didn’t you say it was free?” Jiang Ran was a little surprised.
The manager smiled, he explained, “If you had accepted my ‘free offer’ just now, your meal would indeed be free. But you insisted that I fire my employees, so the ‘free offer’ doesn’t count.”
“Why doesn’t it count?” Jiang Ran questioned loudly, “Isn’t it the free offer that you said?”
The manager smiled. “But you’re the one who won’t accept it.”
“When did I say I won’t accept it?!”
“You just said it yourself. You said you don’t need the free order. You just need me to fire that employee.”
“Ah…” Jiang Ran then remembered that she did say that. But it was too late to go back on her words now, so she could only obediently pay. “How much?”
“A total of 1,300 yuan,” the manager said.
Jiang Ran stopped taking out her phone and looked at the manager in disbelief. “How much?!”
The manager repeated, “1,300 yuan.”
Jiang Ran pointed at the things on the table. “Just a cup of coffee and three pieces of cake. You’re telling me these things are 1,300 yuan?!”
The manager nodded. “Yes.”
“You’re trying to cheat me of my money, right?” Jiang Ran couldn’t believe that these things were worth 1300 yuan.
“Customer, you’re really wronging me. These things are really 1300 yuan.” The manager looked at Jiang Ran with sincerity.
