Fu Zhi and Su Xing decided to go to the newly built ski resort near the Lu Mansion.
Thirty minutes or so later, the car from the Lu Mansion stopped outside the fancy restaurant in the ski resort.
Fu Zhi, Su Xing, and the others came out of the car, and Su Xing looked at the ski resort. She had heard that the ski resort had been built by a pair of investors. It was a big project, and the quality of the equipment in the resort was one of the best in the world.
Su Xing took a look at her bank account balance on her phone. Her voice was hoarse because she had been crying just now. She pitched her voice low and said, “Zhizhi, it seems to me that this restaurant is a bit pricey. I’m kind of short of cash lately, so why not wait until next month? If I cannot make ends meet, I will sell my blood and treat you to a meal here.”
“You don’t have to sell your blood…” Fu Zhi said. “This ski resort is open to all the families in this residence for free.”
She paused for a moment before adding, “Besides, I helped the manager of this restaurant when I ran into him the other day. In exchange, he told me that I could bring my friends to have a meal here whenever I wanted to.”
If it were an ordinary restaurant, it went without saying that Fu Zhi would never have come, as she was a choosy eater. However, this restaurant was different. Although it had only been established a short while ago, it had already become one of the top restaurants in Yu City, and their sweet and sour pork ribs were one of the best Fu Zhi had ever had.
After listening to what Fu Zhi said, Su Xing immediately ordered. “I want two bowls of rice then!”
Fu Zhi and Su Xing were walking ahead, while Song Fang was following them. “But we don’t have a reservation. The last time my dad wanted to bring my mom over here for skiing and dinner, the manager said that they only entertain customers with a reservation.”
Lu Yubai turned around and asked Fu Zhi, “What did you help the manager with?”
After all, he remembered that when they had been to Country M to participate in the International Physics competition, the Chinese restaurant they had gone to would only entertain customers with reservations, and it was also one of the top restaurants in the world. However, in the end, it turned out that this was one of Fu Zhi’s restaurants.
“Yes. We don’t have to make a reservation.”
As for the help she’d mentioned just now, she did not know how to answer, so she just kept silent.
The door to the restaurant was opened by the waiter.
As soon as they stepped into the restaurant, they were greeted by a waft of sweet fragrance. The restaurant was lavishly decorated but it was not overly dramatic.
The ski resort only entertained 100 guests every day.
After the lobby manager finished entertaining a couple, his eyes glowed when he turned around and saw Fu Zhi and Lu Yumo. He hastily went up to them and greeted them. “Ms. Fu, Mr. Lu, you guys have brought your friends over? Come on in. Let me know what you want to eat, and I’ll order the kitchen staff to make it for you!”
Song Fang had no idea why, but the smile on the lobby manager’s face reminded him of the tail-spinning dog meme that he kept seeing on the internet these days.
Then, Fu Zhi told the lobby manager that Zhou Zihan, Su Xing, and Ye Jiu were her classmates, while Lu Yubai and Lu Yumo were students from another class. The lobby manager seemed even more excited as he quickly answered, “I’m really sorry that you had to explain this to me. I will not forget it, and please don’t forget to come to the restaurant again next time so that I can return the favor.”
“Don’t mention it. It’s not a big deal after all,” Fu Zhi said.
The eyes of the lobby manager bulged as he shook his head and said, “No! How can you say that? Of course it is a big deal! This is part of my job. Anyway, the lobster delivery will arrive tomorrow, so you must bring your family or friends here. Otherwise, I will feel bad about myself.”
The crowd did not know what to say.
Fu Zhi pressed her lips firmly and said, “Thank you then.”
The lobby manager saluted Fu Zhi and replied, “Don’t mention it! It’s my duty to serve you anyway!”
Fu Zhi was speechless.
