The waiter had carried out his duties according to the rules. He cleared his throat and answered seriously, “Then I’ll have to trouble you to call your friend and get her to pick you up with her card.”
Mo Zhu understood the intentions of these two women. She looked up to see Huo Qing and Kang Ying hiding behind the corner and watching the commotion. Mo Zhu glared at them disdainfully and said calmly, “Forget it then, I’m not going in.”
After saying this, Mo Zhu did not stay at the door any longer. She immediately turned to leave.
Seeing that Mo Zhu was really leaving, Huo Qing hurriedly walked out from the corner and pretended to be angry as she came to the waiter. She said anxiously, “Didn’t I ask you to follow us closely? This restaurant has a VIP management system. Not everyone can enter.”
Huo Qing had originally wanted to embarrass Mo Zhu in front of everyone. It would be best if this country bumpkin lowered her head and begged her to bring her in. She did not expect Mo Zhu to just turn around and leave without even arguing with the waiter.
Mo Zhu coldly looked at Huo Qing, who was directing and acting the show by herself, but she did not respond to her. Huo Qing’s heart trembled by her stare. She touched her chin and looked away. Thereafter, she took out her VIP card from her bag and handed it to Mo Zhu. “How about this? Come in with my card first.”
Mo Zhu raised her eyes gently, turned her eyes to the VIP card Huo Qing had passed to her, and said casually, “I have my own card, I don’t need to use yours.”
Upon hearing Mo Zhu’s words, Kang Ying, who was hiding at the corner and watching the show, was amused. She walked out from the shadows and sneered, “You? You think you’re worthy of holding this hotel’s VIP card?”
At this moment, Huo Qing also believed that Mo Zhu was just blowing her own trumpet. For the sake of her own reputation, she had pretended that she had a card. She pursed her lips and said, “Why don’t you use my VIP card and hurry in? Don’t embarrass the Huo family here. It’s not a big deal to not have a card. You don’t have to be so conceited.”
Mo Zhu speechlessly stuck her hand into her pocket. Before she could reply, Kang Ying started mocking her again. “I really don’t know what’s wrong with Brother Xuan to be willing to get engaged to someone like you. The country bumpkins in the village are indeed country bumpkins. Besides having little experience, they have very bad character too. It’s really embarrassing to bring them out.”
Mo Zhu was not angry when she heard this. She raised her eyes and looked lightly at the two people who were echoing each other. She replied calmly, “How did you guys know that I don’t have a VIP card? Are the VIP cards here that expensive?”
“Let’s not talk about whether it’s valuable or not first. At the very least, I have what you don’t!” Kang Ying had a child’s temper. After recognizing Mo Zhu’s stare as a provocation, she immediately shouted loudly.
After she had said this, Huo Xuan had coincidentally finished his call. When he arrived at the door, he managed to catch the last few words of what Kang Ying had just said. His eyes darkened and Huo Xuan came to Mo Zhu’s side. “What’s wrong?”
Mo Zhu did not respond, but Huo Qing was the first to explain, “It’s not a big deal. It’s just a small argument between the children. Ying’er and I had good intentions and wanted Ms. Mo to use our VIP card to enter, but she actually lied and said that she had one. Thus, we ended standing her for a few minutes.”
After a pause, Huo Qing added, “Xuan’er, it’s not a big deal not having a VIP card. Quickly persuade this young lady to come in with us.”
These words were said with great technique. However, her words revealed that Mo Zhu wasn’t sensible.
Huo Xuan held Mo Zhu’s hand and looked at the two of them coldly. “In that case, we won’t trouble you. We brought our own VIP cards. Let’s eat separately.”
Kang Ying was unhappy when she heard this. She pursed her lips and said angrily, “Don’t, Brother Xuan. I can finally have a meal with you. Don’t let this woman disturb our meal.. Why don’t you ask her to go back and we can eat with auntie?”
