1939 Qiao Nian, Don’t Be Impulsive
Xue Zhu was a little angry. “Who wants us to leave halfway through the meal? What a joke! Where’s your manager? Get your manager here.”
Shen Qingfeng rubbed his temples. This was the first time he had encountered such a strange thing. He pulled Xue Zhu and told her not to be rash.
Then, he turned to look at Qiao Nian, planning to smooth things over. “Qiao Nian, are you done eating? Why don’t we leave?”
The reason why Shen Qingfeng was so patient was that they were not from the three big families, nor did they have their protection.
They were alone and weak.
Although the Seaview Pavilion was only a restaurant, the boss behind it seemed to be an impressive figure.
He did not want to have a conflict with such a person over a small matter.
Therefore, when the waiter bullied him, Shen Qingfeng habitually endured it.
“Who wants to leave? I’m not leaving!” Xue Zhu shouted angrily.
Shen Qingfeng reminded her, “This is the Independent Continent. Bear with it.”
Xue Zhu’s fair face and eyes instantly turned red from anger. Enduring it, she turned her head away, no longer making a fuss about wanting to see the manager.
A hint of disdain appeared in the waiter’s sharp eyes. Her smile did not change at all, as if she was sure that they could only suffer in silence. She smiled and said, “Our manager is busy and might not have time to entertain you.”
It would have been better if she hadn’t said that.
She deliberately mentioned it to mock Xue Zhu.
Xue Zhu was so angry that her lips turned pale. Her hand trembled as she pointed at her. “You—”
At this moment, the sound of a chair scraping against the ground resounded in the private room. Everyone looked at the source of the sound.
The girl stood up from her seat and picked up her phone unhurriedly, with a surly aura between her eyebrows that she could not suppress. She even seemed to be smiling as she said to them, “Wait for me. I’ll make a call.”
“Qiao Nian, don’t be rash—” Shen Qingfeng had to comfort the angry Xue Zhu, so he didn’t have the energy to grab her.
He watched the girl tap her chin and coolly lowered her baseball cap to cover her exquisite and eye-catching face. Then, she walked out of the private room to the corridor outside to make a call.
Qiao Nian didn’t take long.
She came back a minute later.
She looked at the short-haired waiter who was waiting for them to leave, her eyes dark and sharp. “Do you mind waiting two minutes?”
Her words seemed quite polite.
However, she could not hide the willfulness in her tone, as if she did not take the Seaview Pavilion’s waiter seriously.
The waiter was considered someone who had seen the world. She was slightly stunned as she did not understand where this young girl got such a powerful aura from. However, she agreed after some thought. “Okay.”
Anyway, it was only two minutes.
She had also prepared an excuse to prevent Qiao Nian from delaying her stay. She raised her chin slightly and emphasized, “I’ll wait two minutes. After two minutes, I hope you can leave the Seaview Pavilion.”
“What if we don’t leave?” Qiao Nian asked ambiguously. She seemed to smile, but it didn’t reach her eyes.

On the other side.
In Ji Ziyin’s private room.
The dishes had already been sent in.
The young man who had just walked to the back slipped into the private room with the waiter delivering the dishes. He quickly found his seat.
