Jiangnan couldn’t care less, he just strode straight into the hotel!
As more and more guests arrived.
The car park was in chaos, jammed solid!
The hotel manager was losing his mind.
He rushed around everywhere, asking where the car keys had gone!
With no other choice, they had to send people to contact the owners.
The owners were all baffled too.
Hadn’t they clearly handed their keys to the valet just now?
Could it be a car thief?
They all rushed out.
Then they stared at the car park, a total mess!
The seventeen owners were left dishevelled in the wind.
After bustling about for ages, they finally realised the keys had all been turned in to lost and found.
The hotel manager’s face turned pitch black!
This lot cursed up a storm:
“Who the hell is it! So damn unethical?”
“Took the keys and didn’t park? Dumped them in lost and found?”
“What kind of weird move is that! Is this guy even human?”
“Too low, that! Don’t let me catch that punk!”
“I remember, it was a cheeky little handsome bloke with a super bright smile!”
“Holy crap! It’s him, that bastard!”
These owners would never have imagined running into such a ridiculous situation!
At that moment, Jiangnan, who had reached the banquet hall, was munching on some pastries.
[Resentment value from Gao Jin +1000!]
[Resentment value from Gu Beihai +1000!]
[From…]
The resentment value list refreshed like mad, and Jiangnan was delighted!
Yeah, that eased his mind a fair bit!
At least it wasn’t for nothing!
The banquet hall was massive, opulent and grand!
Full of men and women in fancy attire!
Exuding that upper-crust vibe.
He couldn’t spot Zhong Yingxue anywhere, probably off greeting guests.
Jiangnan didn’t give it a thought, he was there to freeload on the food anyway!
As long as there was grub, he was good.
He was happily tucking into a mousse strawberry sundae.
When a young lady in a lavish evening gown strolled up beside him.
Her black hair pinned up, makeup impeccable, about twenty years old, her eyes scanning the row of sundaes.
She finally picked her target and couldn’t help licking her lips.
“Hello, could you grab that mango sundae for me? Thanks!”
Jiangnan glanced at her.
He picked up the mango sundae and passed it over, she dipped her head and took dainty spoonfuls.
Every now and then, she snuck a peek at Jiangnan.
Looking like she wanted to say something but held back.
In the end, she mustered her courage, “You can eat this too?”
Jiangnan: ???
“Why the hell can’t I?”
The young lady whispered, “Aren’t you scared of getting caught?”
Jiangnan’s eyes bulged!
Damn!
What’s wrong with me eating a sundae? Is it a crime or what?
And whispering like that?
Miss, have you got the wrong end of the stick!
Jiangnan, seething, snatched the last mango sundae from the table!
“Not only am I eating it! I’m having two!”
The young lady stared in shock, her favourite mango sundae whisked away by Jiangnan!
She couldn’t help pouting…
Are waiters this bold these days?
[Resentment value from Gong Xiaoyu +333!]
He finally found a quiet spot.
Jiangnan was digging into the mango sundae!
Gotta say, that Gong Xiaoyu had good taste, the mango one was tastier than strawberry.
Then a waiter with a tray sidled up, eyes wide on Jiangnan.
“Holy crap! Mate! Take it easy, sneaking snacks is one thing, but not so out in the open!”
Jiangnan: ???
Sneaking your arse! I’m not sneaking anything!
He was about to retort when the waiter shoved the tray at him.
“Stop scoffing! We’re short-staffed! Get serving drinks, quick!”
Jiangnan stared at the tray in his hands: four glasses of wine, a bottle of champagne, totally baffled!
So I’m playing waiter tonight, am I?
Damn!
This is taking the piss!
Even if you paid me wages, it’d be something.
Jiangnan was just about to set the tray down.
When a young couple, arm in arm, approached him: it was that effeminate bloke!
“Waiter! Top up!”
The effeminate man spotted Jiangnan and froze.
Wasn’t this the cheeky sod who dumped all the keys in lost and found earlier?
Jiangnan glared, fury rising.
He eyed the half-glass of champagne still in the effeminate man’s cup!
Still that much left?
Top up my foot!
He snatched it and downed it in one go!
Then, under the horrified stares of the effeminate man and the woman!
He knocked back all four glasses from the tray, and the whole bottle of champagne!
“Top up my arse!”
“Burp~”
Endless, is it?
Attending a banquet and it’s this much hassle?
Moonlighting as a waiter too?
Xia Yao!
Get over here!
I swear I won’t kill you!
The effeminate man adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, fuming, “You looking to die? Believe me, tonight I’ll make you vanish from Jiangcheng?”
Jiangnan smirked, “Played too much Candy Crush, have we? Always eliminating this, that?”
“You…!”
The effeminate man was about to snap back when the girl beside him yanked him, “Zhong family banquet, don’t cause a scene!”
She turned to Jiangnan, “Wasting time on trash like him, beneath us!”
“We’ll deal with him later!”
The effeminate man narrowed his eyes, “Spared for now! You just wait!”
[Resentment value from Gao Jin +1000!]
Jiangnan dangled the empty bottle, beaming, “Don’t go! Wasn’t it a top-up? Let me sort you!”
But the effeminate man got dragged off by the woman, Jiangnan looked gutted.
He’d wanted to give him a taste of his own medicine, show him what red really means.
Pity, no chance!
He glanced at his suit and decided to ditch it!
Otherwise, no dinner for him tonight!
He was undoing his buttons.
In the hall, a girl in ragged clothes had her eyes land on Jiangnan.
She was in a diamond-encrusted evening gown, sparkling like stars, the centre of attention!
Tall and statuesque, curves in all the right places, wheat-toned skin, exquisite features, a vision of beauty.
Plenty of gents in the room had their eyes lingering on her, but none dared stare!
This girl paid no mind to the crowd, striding right towards Jiangnan.
Her heels clicked on the floor.
Jiangnan was fiddling with his buttons when suddenly it went dark in front of him?
He looked up and jolted!
The girl was right up close to Jiangnan, he could even smell her fragrance.
What the…?
Jiangnan was about to step back!
When the girl raised a small hand, gently caressing his cheek.
Her big eyes shimmered with softness, she pressed right up against him, one hand on the wall!
Jiangnan: ???
Damn!
I’ve been wall-slapped?
She leaned in close, breathing softly into his ear.
“Eleven tonight! Room sixty-nine, wait for me!”
“Be clever, don’t let big sis down!”
With that, she blew another puff into his ear!
His ear tingled, sending shivers down his spine!
Jiangnan shuddered, about to shove her off!
But the girl flitted away like a dragonfly on water!
She patted his chest, flashed a knowing smile, and off she went?
Jiangnan: ???
Mum! Someone’s taking liberties with me!
Teasing me!
Wall-slamming me!
And blowing in my ear, what a cheek on her!
He rummaged in his pocket!
Three grand wrapped around a room keycard?
The one the girl had just slipped in!
Jiangnan’s expression turned serious!
Sod taking off the clothes!
This waiter gig!
Young master me’s doing it proper tonight!
Full service, guaranteed satisfaction!
