Chapter 21 He is your boss

Everyone present looked in the direction of the voice, only to see Dong Tianda striding over.

Seeing his boss arrive, Zhang Daqing quickly went up to him with a fawning expression: “Boss, you’re here. Someone who doesn’t know any better is causing trouble in our restaurant. I’ll deal with him immediately… ”

Before he could finish speaking, Dong Tianda slapped him hard across the face.

“You scoundrel, I’ll deal with you first! How dare you disrespect Mr. Ye!”

Dong Tianda was furious. He had gone to great lengths to curry favor with Ye Bufan, even giving away the restaurant, but this pig-headed subordinate was actually trying to lay hands on him. Wasn’t this sabotaging him?

He walked up to Ye Bufan and said with an apologetic expression, “Dr. Ye, I’m sorry, there was some traffic on the way, so I’m late.

Rest assured, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter.”

Turning back, he asked Zhang Daqing, “Tell me, what exactly happened here?”

Zhang Daqing was completely stunned by the slap and said somewhat at a loss, “Boss, Mr. Ma said that this Mr. Ye snuck in…”

Knowing he had caused big trouble, at this point, he could only push the responsibility onto Ma Wenbo, hoping that Ma Wenbo’s relationship with the boss would help him get through this.

Seeing Dong Tianda look at him, Ma Wenbo quickly extended both hands and stepped forward, saying, “Hello, Mr. Dong!”

Dong Tianda gave him a cold glance, showing no intention of shaking his hand.

“Who are you? Are we very familiar?”

Ma Wenbo withdrew his hands and said awkwardly, “Mr. Dong truly has the memory of a busy man. We’ve eaten together before. My father is Ma Youcai.”

In fact, his claim of knowing Dong Tianda was entirely self-aggrandizing. Even his father was not on the same level as him.

The Dong family was a catering industry giant with assets in the tens of billions, while his family was merely a nouveau riche with assets in the hundreds of millions. There was simply no comparison between the two.

He had originally wanted to use this to show off and gain face, but he didn’t expect to actually run into Dong Tianda, and his bluff was instantly called.

Although he had brought up his father’s name, Dong Tianda still didn’t spare him a glance and turned to look at Zhang Daqing.

“You scoundrel, how are you running this manager position?”

“Boss, listen to my explanation…”

Zhang Daqing still wanted to say something, but Dong Tianda directly interrupted him, “Don’t call me boss anymore. From today onwards, this

Drunken Jiangnan Restaurant belongs to Mr. Ye. He is the boss here.”

With that, he opened his briefcase, took out the transfer documents, and handed them to Ye Bufan, “Mr. Ye, I’ve completed all the relevant procedures. From now on, everything in the restaurant is up to you.”

When he finished speaking, everyone present was dumbfounded.

Zhang Daqing never dreamed that the poor kid he had just looked down on would become his boss in the blink of an eye, and not only did he not try to curry favor, but he even tried to have the security guards kick him out. Was there anything more self-destructive than this?

Zhu Linlin also widened her eyes, unable to believe what was happening. An hour ago, she had despised Ye Bufan for being poor and kicked him aside, but now he had actually become the owner of such a large restaurant.

If Ma Wenbo hadn’t known Dong Tianda, she would have even thought this was just an act.

Ma Wenbo’s face was burning. Just now, he had mocked Ye Bufan endlessly for not having money to eat here, but the other person immediately became the boss. Was there anything more humiliating than this?

Zhang Daqing was the first to regain his senses, slapping himself twice across the face, then said fawningly, “Boss, everything just now was my fault. I was blind, and I apologize to you now. Please, please don’t hold it against me…”

Ye Bufan said indifferently, “No need. I’m not your boss either. From now on, you’re fired.”

“Please, no, Boss!” Zhang Daqing quickly said, “It was indeed my fault just now, but there was a reason. I didn’t expect you to come to the private room Mr. Ma booked.

Please forgive me this one time, given the extenuating circumstances.”

He had worked in the catering industry for so many years to finally become a general manager, with a substantial annual salary. If he were fired like this, all those years of effort would be wasted.

Ye Bufan said indifferently, “I already gave you a chance. I told you to check the reservation records, but you didn’t listen.

In your eyes, you’ve categorized guests into different classes. No matter what Ma Wenbo said, you believed him, but you didn’t believe anything I said. Someone like you, who wears tinted glasses, is indeed not suitable to work for me.

“You, surnamed Ye, you are clearly lying.”

Ma Wenbo feared Dong Tianda, but he didn’t fear Ye Bufan. He pulled out his phone and said, “Look, I have the reservation record here. I booked private room number 1.”

Seeing his firm tone, Ye Bufan also felt a little confused. Could it be that Qin Chuchu made a mistake?

(End of chapter, please turn page)

At this moment, Zhang Daqing snatched the phone and looked at it, then his face turned pale, “You, surnamed Ma, you’ve really screwed me over! Have you ever been to a high-end establishment? Do you even know what you booked?

You only booked a regular Private Room 1, but this is VIP Private Room 1. They are completely different things!”

At this moment, he was filled with regret. If only he had checked Ma Wenbo’s message earlier, he wouldn’t have made such a big mistake.

“This…”

Ma Wenbo looked embarrassed. He had walked into the wrong room, came to this high-end private room, and was still acting high and mighty here. He had truly made a fool of himself.

Zhang Daqing pleaded, “Boss, please give me another chance. I will definitely be loyal from now on…”

Ye Bufan waved his hand and said, “I just said, I already gave you your last chance, but unfortunately, you didn’t seize it.

You are not suitable to work for me. Pack your things and get out!”

“I…”

Zhang Daqing was filled with unwillingness, but there was nothing he could do. He could only leave dejectedly.

Ye Bufan then looked at Ma Wenbo and Zhu Linlin: “Didn’t you just say that if I was here, you wouldn’t come to this place? From today onwards, you will be blacklisted by my restaurant, and we will not do business with you anymore.”

Ma Wenbo’s face burned with a stinging sensation. Just now, he had tried to use his status to drive Ye Bufan away, but the other person had become the boss here, and ultimately, he was the one who had to leave.

“Kid, what’s there to be so Divine Qi about? Your woman was still snatched away by me.” He glared angrily at Ye Bufan, then said to Zhu Linlin, “What are you still doing here? Aren’t you embarrassed enough? Hurry up and come with me.”

But surprisingly, Zhu Linlin didn’t leave with him. Instead, she threw herself in front of Ye Bufan, pleading, “Xiao Fan, I was wrong this time. For the sake of our past, can we get back together?”

She had already calculated in her heart that although Ma Wenbo had money, he was just playing with her, and she wouldn’t really get much from him. She might even be kicked aside someday.

But Ye Bufan was different. In the past, when they were together, even if he had 100 yuan, he would spend it all on her, and now he even owned a large restaurant worth tens of millions.

If she could get back together with Ye Bufan, she would be a millionaire herself!
