Chapter 165: 165: Yue Ruxia and her friends (4)
Entering the Marigold Mall, the three young ladies had caught a lot of eyes upon their entrance. Some of them had seen a sports car going down and realized that these three were no ordinary young ladies, especially when one of the old guards of the mall recognized Yue Ruxia.
At the entrance of the mall...
The security guard greeted, "Young Miss Ruxia, greetings. Welcome to the Marigold Mall!"
"Thank you, Uncle Guard!" said Yue Ruxia.
"Please enjoy your stay, Young Miss Ruxia!"
Chen Senya and Gou Yura didn't expect their friend, Yue Ruxia, to be recognized at the door of the mall. This only means that almost all the staff in this building knows the identity and appearance of Yue Ruxia, and this must have something to do with her elder sister being a shareholder of the mall. Moreover, it seems that the standing of Yue Xuexia in this place is not simple. She might be one of the major shareholders of the Marigold Mall.
Gou Yura asked curiously, "Ruru, is your elder sister a major shareholder of this mall?"
"I don't know. But I've met Uncle Chen, the owner of this Marigold Mall. It was then that he gave me those vouchers, gift cards, etc."
"Your elder sister is truly amazing." Chen Senya couldn't help but be in awe at such a realization.
Yue Ruxia smiled when she heard her elder sister being praised. "Really! I thought so too!"
"What are we going to do first?" asked Chen Senya.
The two answered together as if singing the same tune. "Eat Lunch!"
"Okay, you two. Haha~" said Chen Senya. "Yuyu, where is the restaurant you made reservations with?"
"Come! Follow me! It's this way!" said Gou Yura.
Gou Yura had pulled her two friends over in the only French restaurant in the mall. The style of this restaurant focuses more on privacy; thus, the customers were provided private rooms and tables in different kinds of levels. The most expensive room is the special VIP private room, and there is only one in this restaurant. The three of them stood before a restaurant where it couldn't be seen what was inside, but at the door, a young man in a Butler suit bowed his head a bit and greeted them.
"Bienvenue dans notre humble lieu, Mes jeunes dames!" said the young butler.
None of the three understood what the butler had said, but they were delighted to be greeted in a foreign language. The three of them can speak English fine, though.
Gou Yura said, "Hello~, I've made reservations. Can you please take us to our reserved room?" She spoke in English to communicate with the butler.
Knowing that the ladies couldn't understand French, the professional butler smiled and responded in English. He had seen a lot of customers like this who couldn't speak French but loved eating it. He treated them as VIP customers when he saw that the reservation was under the VIP private room, which caused a few ten thousand RMB just to get it.
The male butler said, "Please come in, my lovely ladies. This butler will show you the way to your room."
The three of them thanked the young butler and followed him inside, but who would have thought that the moment they entered the restaurant to their reserved room, someone else was dining in there during the time of reservation that they made? This left the male butler a bit bewildered. In the end, he had no other choice but to send them to one of the high-class rooms, which is a lower level than the VIP private room.
"Please, my young ladies. I will check with the manager what is wrong with your room. Do give me some time to resolve this issue."
The male butler was feeling sorry for the three young ladies, whose excitement was dampened knowing that they couldn't enter the VIP private room. This is especially true for Gou Yura, who wanted to experience dining in such a private room and waited weeks just to catch this room.
"It's okay. It's not your fault. Please go ahead and check the situation first," said Yue Ruxia.
The male butler said, "I will definitely compensate the ladies if there was something wrong with the reservation. Please wait for my return. For the meantime, would you like to see the menu?"
"Yes, please!" said Gou Yura and Yue Ruxia.
The butler smiled and passed a menu with English translation on it before leaving the room. As soon as the butler left, Chen Senya, who was observing the whole situation, had a bad feeling about this event. She felt that things aren't simple.
Rooms in such a luxurious place cannot be easily given to someone unless the higher-ups of the restaurant have approved it. Moreover, this place usually has their own way to gather information about their customers, and the more powerful the customer is, the more they would be prioritized.
The customer's name to reserve the VIP Room was Gou Yura. Though Gou Yura can be considered a rich lady whose family owned a small company, compared to the big company owners, her reputation is nothing. That means the one who stole their private room must be someone from a big company at least.
This wouldn't have happened if it was Yue Ruxia's name who was listed as the one who reserved the room. Because her elder sister is the major shareholder of this mall, she can be considered a co-owner of the Marigold Mall. That's why even the security guards of the mall can recognize Yue Ruxia by her face alone.
Chen Senya glanced at her two friends, who hadn't even noticed that something was going on with their situation. She saw them happily checking on the menu with a delighted and greedy smile. Obviously, these two were both hungry.
"Ruru, can you contact anyone with high authority in this mall aside from your elder sister? Though we can ask your sister for help, seeing that it should be possible to resolve it without bothering, let's do it on our own," said Chen Senya.
Yue Ruxia thought for a while and looked through the contacts on her phone and even brought out a card collection holder looking for Chen Huan's business card. "Found it! This is Uncle Chen's business card. He is the owner of his mall. What should we do next?"
"First, send him a message about our situation. Don't forget to add the restaurant's name and complain," said Chen Senya.
Gou Yura looked confused and asked, "Is the problem big enough for us to call the owner of the mall?"
"The situation at the moment is not big yet. Wait for the butler from before to return. There is no way he would come here alone and you would most likely suffer discrimination, but don't mind it. The owner of the mall will avenge us!" said Chen Senya.
Yue Ruxia, who just did as she was told, looked at her friends and said, "I did as you told. Uncle Chen is now calling me for a video call. Should I answer it?"
"Yes, answer it!" said Chen Senya

Meanwhile, at the VIP Private Room of the French Restaurant...
A female butler was serving a few company owners having lunch inside the room. Each room had a butler stationed to serve the guests inside. This is their restaurant policy.
"Butler, ask the kitchen to serve the main dishes in an hour!"
"As you wish, Master!" said the female butler before going out of the VIP Room.
As soon as the female butler came out, the male butler that was serving Gou Yura, Yue Ruxia, and Chen Senya had come to stop her. This lady is the niece of the current manager of the restaurant and would sometimes abuse her uncle's authority to make sudden changes in the room reservations, which is supposed to be not allowed.
It's just that no one dares to report to her uncle, as they knew how doting that one is to his niece, but this doesn't mean that the manager doesn't follow the rules. The coworkers of this lady are just afraid of being involved in such things.
The male butler said, "What did you do? Why did you suddenly let those customers take a reserved room, and it's a VIP private room? Now that the ones who reserved the room have arrived, what do you plan to do!?"
"So, what if they come? The one who reserved the room is just a young lady from a small company compared to my current customers who are all company owners; they cannot be compared at all. Just send them to a high-class room. That should be enough for them! Hmp!" said the female butler as she seemed to want to push away the male butler, who was at a loss at how conceited this lady was.
"Move away! I need to go to the kitchen!"
Thinking of the three ladies who showed disappointment when they heard that their reservation was lost, he felt that he hadn't done his job well. He decided to look for the manager and ask for justice. This time he is willing to put his job in line just to follow the rules of the restaurant.
On the other hand, in the manager's room. A potbellied uncle was enjoying his aromatherapy when his phone suddenly rang.
Ring. Ring.
This sudden ringing of his phone put off the mood that was just then making the uncle frown, but when he saw the name of the caller, he immediately jumped off his recliner chair as if something bit his butt. He answered the call, which was listed with the name of Chen Huan's secretary.
Click!
"Yes! Secretary Chu, how may I help you?"
[Don't you know what good deed your restaurant has done!?]
"I… I… Secretary Chu, what do you mean?" asked Manager Sun in confusion.
[You are great! The friend of Miss Yue's youngest sister had reserved your restaurant's VIP private room, but when they arrived at your place, you only sent them to a high-class room! Are you seeking death? If this news reaches the ears of Miss Yue, you will not be able to stay in this district!]
Manager Sun's face turned pale at this news, and he didn't expect such a thing to happen after becoming the manager of this restaurant.
"Please let me explain. I truly didn't know what was happening. I promise to resolve it as soon as possible and give the Young Miss Ruxia an explanation!"
[You better resolve it well. Young Miss Ruxia had complained to the President about this. Be thankful she didn't call for her elder sister first or you wouldn't be able to stay. Make sure to fire whoever causes this mess. This is an order from President Chen himself.]
"Yes. Yes. I promise. I will fire the culprit that caused this mess," said Manager Sun.
[Do it now!]
Click!
The call was ended by the other side, showing how annoyed the caller is. But this abrupt action didn't enter the mind of Manager Sun, as he was greatly terrified by how big the situation had gotten. Just as he was about to prepare to leave his office, a knock came to his door.
Knock. Knock.
A male voice comes from the opposite side of the door: "Manager! This is Yu Shin. I would like to report a problem about the reservation of the VIP Private Room."
