Chapter 415: Chapter 0415: Eating a Meal without Paying

Just as they arrived at the entrance of the Zuixian Inn, Chu Ge was dragged into the room by Shen Yaoyao, who truly did not wish to see the disgusting face of Shen Mimi.

"Are you sure you don’t want to wait for Zhao Wuji?" Chu Ge asked with confusion.

Shen Yaoyao was naturally aware of Zhao Wuji’s status in Shanghai, and there would be many times in the future when Sister Bingtong could use his connections in the banking sector. Now would be the best opportunity to curry favor with Zhao Wuji.

But Shen Yaoyao just didn’t want to see Shen Mimi’s nauseating face, and with a bit of disdain, she said, "Mr. Zhao is Lin’s guest, not ours. It wouldn’t be too late to greet him when he arrives later."

She did not want to wait outside with Shen Mimi, who knew what kind of unpleasant words might come out of Shen Mimi’s mouth.

If it weren’t for her grandfather’s sake, she wouldn’t have come at all!

Downstairs.

No sooner had Shen Yaoyao led Chu Ge inside the Zuixian Inn, Lin and Zhao Wuji got out of the car and walked towards the entrance.

At the entrance, Shen Mimi and her father, Shen Tong, stood, especially Shen Tong, whose face burst into joy upon seeing Zhao Wuji accompanying Lin.

Lin said to Zhao Wuji with a face full of obsequious flattery, "Uncle, why didn’t you tell us in advance about your visit to Su City, so that I could arrange everything for you?"

Zhao Wuji, looking at this distant relative of his bowing and scraping, replied with a cold gaze and indifferently said, "My visit is to Su City, not Dang City. How could you arrange anything for me?"

Lin chuckled awkwardly, "I have a girlfriend in Su City, the daughter of the Xiao Shen Family. Although the Xiao Shen Family is not among the top three in Su City, it’s still possible for me to arrange convenient accommodations and travel for you, uncle."

Lin was a distant relative of Zhao Wuji, so distant that Zhao Wuji could barely remember having such a person in his family. However, given Zhao Wuji’s status, anyone even slightly related to him would fawn over him, and his elder relatives often told him to take good care of these connections.

Among these long-lost relatives that he couldn’t even remember without great effort, Lin made the strongest impression on him.

Because this fellow did have some skills, but the skills brought him nothing but a series of shocking negative impacts.

Zhao Wuji gave him an indifferent glance and then nodded, "Given your reputation in Dang City, it’s no wonder you can only find a girlfriend from afar."

Lin was startled, then he laughed awkwardly, scratching his head sheepishly, and made an inviting gesture, "Please come inside, uncle."

Shen Tong, seeing Lin leading Zhao Wuji over, hurriedly approached with a face full of obsequious flattery, "Lin, is this Mr. Zhao Wuji?"

Lin tilted his chin slightly, looking quite proud of himself, "This is the famous banker, Mr. Zhao Wuji, and also a distant uncle of mine."

Upon hearing that Lin was related to Zhao Wuji, Shen Tong became even more fond of this future son-in-law.

"Mr. Zhao, hello. I am the second son of the Xiao Shen Family in Su City, my name is Shen Tong. This is my younger daughter, Lin’s girlfriend, Shen Mimi."

As he spoke, Shen Tong turned around and gave Shen Mimi a look, indicating she should step forward to greet.

Shen Mimi also felt a shared sense of glory at that moment, as if the fact that Zhao Wuji and Lin were relatives somehow extended to her as well.

Shen Mimi stepped forward obediently, but her eyes brimmed with pride. She hoped that Shen Yaoyao was here too. Didn’t her boyfriend claim to know Zhao Wuji? She wanted to see if that boy truly knew Zhao Wuji.

"Hello, uncle," Shen Mimi greeted naturally, already considering herself Lin’s girlfriend, and thus entitled to call Zhao Wuji ’uncle’ as a matter of course.

Zhao Wuji nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

Lin didn’t forget the main purpose of his visit today, to help the Shen Family pull in investments, and to thoroughly put down Shen Yaoyao’s ignorant boyfriend.

Lin looked around. He had seen that kid’s figure when he drove in just now, but now he was nowhere to be found.

Shen Mimi knew what Lin was looking for and said with a smile, "Shen Yaoyao and the others probably felt it would be too embarrassing, so they went in ahead of time."

Shen Tong courteously invited Zhao Wuji into the Zuixian Inn.

Shen Mimi and Lin followed slowly behind, and Shen Mimi said, "Lin, I really didn’t expect you to be connected to Zhao Wuji."

Lin’s face shone with pride, and he lifted his chin arrogantly, "Of course, he’s one of my uncles, always takes good care of me. Later, you can have your father bring up the investment thing, and then I’ll chime in, and we’re almost certain to clinch it."

When Shen Mimi heard this, she became even more excited. She nearly clung to Lin’s body, thinking that although Lin wasn’t as handsome as Chu Ge, nor did he have his charming aura, she felt somewhat unbalanced.

But this morning, Lin’s actions had completely shifted the balance back in his favor in her heart. What does it matter if someone has a good aura or looks handsome?

In this society where looks are valued, but backgrounds are even more important, having a strong background is the real deal.

"I’ll have to trouble you later then."

Lin slyly reached out and pinched Shen Mimi’s butt hard, then said with a mischievous smile, "Why trouble? We’re all family here, just be a bit more enthusiastic tonight."

Shen Mimi glared at him angrily, "Get real!"

Due to the crowd at the entrance, Lin didn’t make any more excessive moves. After squeezing Shen Mimi’s butt hard, he smilingly hugged her and entered the restaurant.

Meanwhile, Chu Ge and Shen Yaoyao intended to enter the room to wait.

But as soon as they reached the entrance of the private room, they were stopped by a reasonably handsome young man.

"Stop right there! This room is already reserved!" said the young man hostilely.

Having worked here for so long and developed the skill of observing others, he knew from Chu Ge’s suit that this was not someone one would want to offend lightly.

So he toned it down a bit and asked in a calmer voice, "The rooms on the second floor require reservations. Do you have one?"

Chu Ge shook his head; they didn’t make a reservation, but Lin should have, right?

"No reservation, no entry."

Shen Yaoyao was getting displeased, "We don’t have a reservation, but our companion does, and he’s right downstairs! He’ll be up in a moment!"

Although she was reluctant to say it, being slighted and looked down upon by a waiter was something she couldn’t swallow.

Hearing this, the waiter looked at them skeptically, "The person who reserved this room is Mr. Zhao from Shanghai, do you know Mr. Zhao?"

Chu Ge nodded, "Yes, we do."

Upon hearing this, the waiter immediately realized what was going on and scoffed coldly, showing his disdain for Chu Ge, "So you’re con artists! Trying to dine and dash?"
