Chapter 480: The Ski Resort Belongs To Xu Wei And Fu Zhi – 2

The lobby manager led them to a table next to a window. After he handed the menu to Fu Zhi and Lu Yumo, he said, “Is it the same strawberry cheesecake milk tea for you two?”

“Yeah.”

“Change it to mango for me this time,” Lu Yumo added.

The lobby manager lifted his head to look at the eldest young master of the Lu Family, and his hand holding the walkie-talkie froze. “I remember that Miss Fu is allergic to mangoes, right? With all due respect, don't you think it is not proper to order a mango drink at our ski resort?”

'Why is it not proper? She is allergic to mangoes, but I'm not, so why can't I order a mango drink?' Lu Yumo thought inwardly.

Before he could say anything, the lobby manager continued, “Besides, we don't have mangoes in the ski resort.”

Originally, the ski resort was a gift for Xu Wei and Fu Zhi, so everything had to be built according to their preferences. As for Lu Yumo's preference, it was not within the scope of consideration.

Lu Yumo was speechless. “Are you telling me that you can't get me a single mango in such a big ski resort?”

He now had every reason to believe that the lobby manager had something against him, but he could not have it out with the lobby manager.

After all, the ski resort did not charge them for the meal, and besides, the service at this ski resort had always been excellent.

Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, Lu Yumo turned around and ordered a mango milk tea through his phone.

The lobby manager saw what he was trying to do through the corner of his eyes. He smiled apologetically at Lu Yumo and said, “I'm sorry, Mr. Lu. According to the rules of our resort, mangoes are strictly prohibited, so there are only two options for you right now: Either you order another drink, or you can order a mango milk tea, but I may have to ask you to leave the resort.”

Lu Yumo was speechless.

'Or maybe you and Fu Zhi should leave the resort?'

The lobby manager did not look at Lu Yumo anymore after he had finished speaking. He turned around and said to Fu Zhi with a smiley face. “What do you want to eat today, Ms. Fu?”

Although Fu Zhi was adopted, the lobby manager did not know why but he felt Fu Zhi really looked a lot like Xu Wei, and the more he looked at her, the more he liked her. That's why he kept wanting to give Fu Zhi something, but at the same time, he was worried that Fu Zhi might realize something. After all, the profession of the Xu Family needed to be kept a secret. Plus, the Lu Family had always thought that the Xu Family was poor, and if Madam Lu really learned something, considering her way of doing things, she would certainly shout until the whole world knew about it.

As such, the lobby manager felt so sad that he wanted to cry whenever he thought that Fu Zhi and Lu Yumo had to be so polite although they were basically eating at their own home.

After Fu Zhi had finished browsing through the menu, the first thing she saw after she raised her head was the lobby manager's teary eyes. She was stunned for a moment and she was wondering if it was because she had ordered too much food. Just as she was going to cancel the plate of coccola chicken wings, she heard the manager speak to his walkie-talkie, “Add another 10 of our specialties into the order list. It seems to me that the food in No.1 High School is bad. Look at Ms. Fu and Mr. Lu, both of them are so skinny.”

Fu Zhi felt the lobby manager was a bit strange and she had no idea why she captured a sense of familiarity from the way he spoke.

She did not know how to explain it, but she felt the way he spoke was similar to how He Min and the others talked to her. They all liked to stuff food to her, and they all treated her like a pig.

The lobby manager went away to pick up a phone call after he had finished speaking.

At the same time, a group of students from Hang Yuan who had gone to the front desk again to negotiate with the waiter saw the situation and frowned, “That's Fu Zhi, right? Why are they in this restaurant?”

Wu Zhiyou then cast her eyes in the direction of their line of sight. When she saw Fu Zhi and her gang, she seemed rather distraught as she asked the front desk, “Didn't you say this resort doesn't entertain customers without reservations? Then, why can they dine here?”

“Yeah, right. We won't say a thing if the Lu Family is richer than the Wu Family, but the reality is that they don't! Why can they dine here, while we have to wait for so long? If you don't give us a proper explanation, we won't let you off the hook so easily.”

“Exactly. We have been waiting here for more than an hour, yet they can just go in the moment they arrive, not to mention that their table is next to the window. Besides, how can you guys give them the meal for free, while we have to pay for the meal ourselves? Don't you think it's not appropriate?”

The girl at the front desk remained expressionless and stood as straight as a ramrod as she listened to their stream of complaints.

She could not understand why they were so angry. First, they were not from the Xu Family, and second, their families were not as rich as the Xu Family.

They thought this was a public ski resort, but what they did not know was that this was actually Xu Wei and Fu Zhi's garden.

It was not part of the girl's responsibility to entertain this bunch of people. She calmly and slowly pulled a machete out of the drawer and slapped it on the table. “You guys are still inside your mother's womb when I was working in my grandfather's slaughterhouse. Try me out if you don't believe me.”

The crowd was stunned. They did not expect the girl would pull a machete out all of a sudden.

Just when they were thinking of the scene where they were slaughtered like a pig in their brains, another waiter came forward and pulled the girl to one side.

Since Wu Zhiyou and her gang knew Fu Zhi, he comforted, “Please wait at the lounge area for a while. I will talk to my manager.”

Then, he went into a small room and told the manager about everything through a walkie-talkie.

The manager was taking a picture of Fu Zhi to send to Master Xu. When he heard the things the waiter said, he thought for a while and replied, “They said they are from the same school as Ms. Fu? Let me ask Ms. Fu first. Just hold on and wait for my instruction.”

After that, the manager brought the milk tea to Fu Zhi and her gang. He told her about Wu Zhiyou, and it was only then Fu Zhi realized they had come to the restaurant as well.

She looked towards Wu Zhiyou, but the latter turned her head away and harrumphed in a condescending manner.

Then, the manager continued, “So what do you think about them? Do you want to let them in?”

'What do I think about them?'

Fu Zhi thought about the day when Wu Zhiheng went shopping with her, and she figured that Wu Zhiyou might be the same as her brother as well.

Therefore, she commented, “She wears a ten-dollar hat on a five-cent head.”

Then, she turned to look at Zhu Wenjie, who was shivering behind Wu Zhiyou, and Chen Shan, who nearly rammed himself into a door when he tried to run away after seeing her.

“Do whatever you want with them.”

In any case, this was not her ski resort, so she figured that she should not stop them from earning money.

The manager then led Wu Zhiyou and her group to the table behind Fu Zhi.

There were only a few meters between two tables.

The manager implicitly hinted that Fu Zhi was the reason they could dine here.

A few boys from Hang Yuan had mixed feelings.

“We're used to being treated as guests of honor in the capital, so why can't they do the same in Yu City?”

“You can't blame them. After all, Yu City is a small town, and they don't understand the greatness of our families.”

“Why can't Fu Zhi let us in early? Why must she make us wait for so long outside? Is she looking down on us?”

“A bunch of idiots,” Wu Zhiyou chimed in, “If you think she's looking down on you, why are you sitting here, then? If you don't want to stay here, then leave. Otherwise, just suck it up, and stop acting like a b*tch.”

A few girls around Wu Zhiyou nodded and added, “That's right. You guys are so petty-minded. Even Fu Zhi is manlier than you guys.”

The boy's expression changed. Initially, he wanted to leave, but when he thought that Ouyang Ya might be here with Wu Zhiheng, he swallowed the humiliation and stayed.

After Wu Zhiyou had sent a text message to her brother, she handed the ice cream she ordered to Fu Zhi.

Looking at Fu Zhi's quizzical gaze, she lifted her chin proudly like a peacock with open feathers and said, “This is for you. If you don't want it, then just throw it into the dustbin. I won't take back anything that I've given.”

“Okay,” Fu Zhi replied flatly.

Wu Zhiyou then stormed back to her seat. Although she said she didn't care, she kept darting glances at Fu Zhi and she only heaved out a sigh of relief when she saw Fu Zhi finally ate the ice cream she gave her.

Lu Yubai noticed her reaction. He frowned slightly, but he did not say anything.

Very soon, all of the dishes were served. They were served even faster than the few customers who came in earlier than them.

Lu Yubai could not hold himself anymore. After he took some rice, he looked at Fu Zhi and pitched his voice low. “Tell me honestly, is this restaurant really not yours?”

Fu Zhi took a pork rib into her plate and replied, “Nope. I don't have the intention of opening a restaurant in Yu City yet.”

'Yet? That means you have a lot more restaurants in other cities?'

Lu Yumo turned his body sideways to look at Lu Yubai. “Why do you keep thinking that she's the owner of this restaurant. She doesn't have much money and she has used up most of her savings for the movie. She's poor now, so there's no way she can afford to open a restaurant.”

'Oh, you don't know. The girl sitting here is like Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans from Harry Potter. You will never know what you will get next.'

“If the restaurant is not hers, why is the manager being so nice to you and her?” Lu Yubai asked.

“He's not being nice to Zhizhi and me only. He's nice to my entire family. Maybe he's a good guy?”

There were no good guys in the world of business.

Lu Yubai looked speechlessly at Lu Yumo. Then, he remembered the radiation-protection glasses he saw from the video when Fu Zhi was having a video call with Madam and Master Xu the last time. A bold idea rose in his head and he asked, “Is there a researcher from the Xu Family? The kind that makes a lot of money?”

When Lu Yumo heard what he had said, he put the corn in his hand down and said, “What are you talking about? Look at me and look at my mom. Do we look like we're very smart to you? We get our intelligence from our parents, so looking at my mom and me, I don't think there's any researcher in the Xu Family.

“Besides, just like my mother, my grandpa and my grandma go square dancing and sweep the street every day. They are just manual laborers, so how is there any possibility they have the time to do research?”

The lobby manager nearly tripped himself when he heard Lu Yumo's first comment about the Xu Family. Then, he fell directly on the floor after he heard Lu Yumo's second comment about the Xu Family.

He felt that it was fine if Lu Yumo blackened his own name, but he did not have to pull the entire family down with him.

A waiter came up to the manager and helped him up from the floor.

“What happened? Why did you suddenly fall down?”

The lobby manager wiped the invisible tears from his face and said, “This is really saddening. How can he be one of the Lus with his level of intelligence? Could it be that they took the wrong baby?”

Lu Yumo continued to talk about how difficult the life of the Xu Family was in the countryside. It took the lobby manager a lot to hold himself back from going up to Lu Yumo and told him that the Xu Family was unusually wealthy.
