Just as they were speaking, they arrived in front of their own restaurant.

First Class Pavilion was the original name of the restaurant, and they had not changed it.

It was almost mealtime now, and customers were trickling in one after another. The business seemed quite good.

The waiter Er Zhu was outside soliciting customers. He looked rather surprised when he saw Luo Ge and the others getting down from the carriage.

"Master, Madam, you're here."

Recovering from his surprise, he quickly smiled and welcomed them into the restaurant.

"Business has been brisk today."

Luo Ge nodded and glanced at the manager Lu at the counter, nonchalantly remarking.

The manager at the counter stiffened upon hearing her voice. He looked up, and seeing that Luo Ge and the others had not noticed him yet, he quickly hid whatever he was holding in his sleeves.

"Yes, today's business has been better than usual. By this time yesterday, we didn't have so many customers yet. Perhaps it's because you've brought good fortune by visiting, Master."

Hearing the waiter's words, Luo Ge turned her head, smiled at Gu Jinchen, and said, "I didn't notice this waiter was such a slick talker before."

Indeed, his words were quite pleasing to hear.

"Quite clever," she remarked.

Er Zhu chuckled upon hearing her words.

'As expected, he's quite a bootlicker, but unfortunately he's not very sensible.'

Seeing this, Manager Lu inwardly scoffed.

He then put on a smiling face and came forward to greet them, "Master, Madam, what brings you here today?"

Seeing the manager's beaming smile, Luo Ge smiled back, pretending not to notice his earlier suspicious movements.

"I had some free time today, so I came by to take care of that matter you were all so eager about earlier."

Hearing Luo Ge's words, Manager Lu was taken aback. He had never expected her to be so straightforward and decisive.

Moreover, he had not anticipated that she would be the one in a hurry to get rid of them, when it was originally them who were urging and pleading to stay longer.

With her words, it seemed as if they were the ones being rushed away by the owners instead.

Could it be that someone had already lined up to take their place so quickly?

How was that possible?

Not long ago, they were still begging and imploring them to stay for a while longer.

"What's the matter? Manager Lu, aren't you pleased? I thought you would be delighted to hear this."

Seeing the manager's stupefied expression, Luo Ge tilted her head, feigning puzzlement, with a hint of a smile on her lips, though it did not reach her eyes.

Manager Lu's expression was caught between a smile and a frown, like he had eaten a rotten egg that had been lying out for half a day. Yet he still had to force a smile for Luo Ge and the others. 𝐟r𝗲𝚎𝚠e𝐛no𝘃𝗲𝐥.c𝗼m

"No, no, the Madam is just joking."

Seeing Manager Lu's embarrassed state, Gu Jinchen raised an eyebrow slightly.

For some reason, hearing his wife's words and seeing Manager Lu's humiliation, he felt quite pleased, even a sense of dark satisfaction.

Indeed, his wife was much better at handling such situations.

His wife was truly formidable!

Seeing Manager Lu's state, Luo Ge smiled and headed towards the back courtyard.

"Bring all the account books from the restaurant for this period," she instructed before leaving.

"Have Er Zhu fetch them. Manager Lu, you come with us."

"Ah?"

Manager Lu was clearly unprepared for Luo Ge's words. He had thought she wanted him to fetch the books since he was the one who had been keeping them.

Moreover, if he went with Luo Ge and the others now, he would not have a chance to accomplish the task assigned by the owners.

"Perhaps I should go and get them. I'm the one who has been keeping the accounts," Manager Lu said with a smile.

"Just give him the keys and tell him where they are kept. There shouldn't be anything objectionable in the manager's room, right?"

Although Luo Ge spoke with a smile, Manager Lu could not help but feel a chill.

Hearing Luo Ge's reasoning, Manager Lu could only smile awkwardly and hand the keys to Er Zhu. "The Madam makes a fair point."
