"Mr. Gu, you\'ve come again!"

It was the same host who had shown him in last time, and he recognized Gu Yu instantly.

"You have a really good memory, to remember me after so many days!" Gu Yu said cheerily, as he pulled out a hundred yuan bill from his pocket and slipped it into the host\'s hand as a tip.

A look of joy appeared on the host\'s face; he had not expected to receive a tip while just standing at the door greeting guests.

Immediately, he became even more enthusiastic.

"You are a VIP member of our restaurant, and we hosts must remember you."

The male host walked beside Gu Yu\'s car, his eyes scanning for a parking space.

Soon, he found Gu Yu a parking space that was easy to back into and spacious. Experience more content on empire

Gu Yu parked the car steadily, and he didn\'t even have to open the car door himself; the host was already pulling it open, inviting him to step out.

Then he went to the passenger side and opened the door for Lin Xin.

The service was nothing less than meticulous.

And what had made all this happen so naturally was merely the hundred yuan tip Gu Yu had given to the host.

"This way, please!"

Leading the way, the host guided Mr. Gu, who offered Lin Xin a slight smile and then took her hand.

On the other side, Mrs. Lin and the aunts and uncles of the Lin Family also got out of their cars.

Gu Yu hurriedly walked with Xin over to Mrs. Lin\'s car and then helped Mr. Lin into his wheelchair.

It was just a small detail, but Mr. Lin nodded with satisfaction.

"Such a sensible child!"

Mr. Lin was generous with his praise.

He felt increasingly that Gu Yu was very suitable for his granddaughter; not only was he handsome and capable, but he was also considerate.

Such boys were rare these days.

Contrary to Gu Yu, Lin Dong had not paid any attention to his grandfather and instead had walked straight to the entrance of Linlang Restaurant with his parents.

"I\'m sorry, but you need to make a reservation to dine here!"

A look of apology was on the face of the female server standing behind the counter at the entrance as she addressed Lin Dong.

Lin Dong looked stunned and then his expression turned slightly unhappy, "Are you kidding? Our company\'s departments often come here for meals!"

"I\'m a regular customer; can\'t you make an exception for me?"

Lin Dong\'s tone was pressing.

The female server pursed her lips, looking embarrassingly at the domineering customer in front of her.

She really wanted to say that it was your departments that came for meals, not you personally.

But the server\'s self-discipline forced her to hold back her true thoughts.

Clearly, she was not in a position to make a decision on this matter.

So, she hurriedly ran into the hall to find the manager.

The manager was a robust man who walked over after hearing the server\'s report, laying aside the order he was working on.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I\'m terribly sorry for the oversight, but the rules of our restaurant are such that we can\'t accommodate you without a prior reservation," he explained.

"Of course, if you have a VIP card, we can provide special access."

The manager also wore an apologetic expression, but his voice carried an unmistakable firmness unlike the gentle tone of the server.

He was the manager of Linlang Restaurant; he did not need to curry favor with regular customers.

"We have a party of over a dozen people today! Are you really going to pass up on business like this?"

Lin Dong persisted, but as he saw Gu Yu pushing his grandfather over, his expression soured even more.

It had been his idea to dine at Linlang Restaurant.

And now here he was, blocked at the entrance and unable to get in—it was like slapping his own face.

"I\'m sorry, the rule is the rule… wait, are you all together? Please, come in!"

The manager was of course not going to break the restaurant\'s policy just because of a few words from Lin Dong, but when he saw Gu Yu coming behind, he suddenly paused.

He recognized Gu Yu!

He had personally issued the VIP card to him!

Lin Dong turned his head, looking toward his grandfather, and then nodded.

He thought that the manager had seen his grandfather in the wheelchair and therefore made an exception to grant him special privileges.

"Not too bad! Quite humane!"

Lin Dong muttered to himself.

"What\'s the matter, Dong? Is there a problem?" Mr. Lin asked with confusion.

Lin Dong quickly raised his head and said, "Normally, their restaurant requires a reservation to dine in, but because they took my face into consideration, they decided to make an exception."

Lin Dong unabashedly took all the credit for himself.

Mr. Lin didn\'t think too much about it and just nodded slightly, "I didn\'t realize you had such influence, Dong. Not bad at all!"

The manager frowned upon hearing this.

He clearly let them in because he saw they were with Gu Yu, right?

What face?

To put it bluntly, he didn\'t even know Lin Dong!

But being in the position of manager, he was adept at being diplomatic, and seeing that Gu Yu didn\'t say anything, he kept quiet as well.

He just silently scorned Lin Dong\'s behavior of self-aggrandizing in his mind.

"We have quite a number of guests today, so I will arrange a private room for you. Please follow me!"

The manager surveyed the group and estimated the number of people in his mind.

It was clearly not possible to dine in the main hall.

They would have to use a private room.

Mrs. Lin, however, hesitated and stepped forward to ask, "Is the price of the private room very expensive? If it\'s too high, we could share a table with others."

It wasn\'t that Mrs. Lin was reluctant to spend money, but in a restaurant like Linlang Restaurant, a large private room could cost tens of thousands.

If they could share a table, that would naturally be best.

Mr. Lin also shared this view and nodded in agreement.

He was just celebrating a birthday, and he didn\'t want his son and daughter-in-law to spend too much—to spend tens or hundreds of thousands just for a birthday was too extravagant.

Mrs. Lin hurriedly inquired as well, "Yes! The private rooms must cost a lot, right?"

The cost of the birthday celebration for Mr. Lin was split between several families.

If they spent tens of thousands at once, wouldn\'t each family have to chip in thirty or forty thousand?

Who would be willing to pay that!

Though not poor, they were still reluctant to spend several tens of thousands at once.

Lin Xin\'s aunt also nodded.

If the private room was expensive, then they should just share tables!

The manager was a bit bewildered by the noisy crowd.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

He could tell they were afraid of spending too much money and quickly waved his hand, "No! No need! As honored guests of Linlang Restaurant, using the private room doesn\'t cost extra!"

"And Linlang Restaurant does not have the practice of sharing tables!" the manager explained helplessly.

"Oh! It doesn\'t cost extra? Then give us the biggest private room!"

Upon hearing that it was free, Mrs. Lin immediately puffed out her chest, lifted her head, and grandly waved her hand.

The manager, with an embarrassed face, still led the group into the restaurant.

"Xinyue, look at how capable our Dong is! He got us the private room just like that! Saved us several tens of thousands in an instant!"

Mrs. Lin proudly pulled Mrs. Lin to brag about her son\'s saving face.

Lin Dong also looked proud as if it was all thanks to him that things changed.

"Shameless..."

Lin Xinyue muttered under her breath, rolling her eyes at Lin Dong without a word.

She knew that Gu Yu was the honored guest of Linlang Restaurant, and all this was simply because the manager was giving face to Gu Yu!

Yet Lin Dong\'s family took all the credit for bragging rights!

"Let him boast if he wants to, today is your grandfather\'s birthday, and it\'s better to be harmonious," Gu Yu said with a carefree smile.

"But all this is thanks to you, Yu!" Lin Xinyue still felt a bit unhappy.

Gu Yu\'s temperament was really too good; if it were her, she would definitely have revealed the truth immediately!

"What\'s important is that Grandpa is happy today, isn\'t it? As for who\'s responsible for that, it doesn\'t really matter~"

Gu Yu freed one hand to pinch Lin Xinyue\'s cheek.

"Eek, how come you seem even more like a member of the Lin Family than Lin Dong!"

Lin Xinyue stuck out her tongue and fell silent.
