Chapter 1309: Chapter 1310: Turns out she’s the minor proprietress behind this chain store

The manager held her back and whispered soothingly, “Miss Yan Hong, don’t be angry. A lot of people are looking this way. If someone recognizes you, it won’t be good for your image. Let’s go inside first; we’ve already arranged a private room for you.”

Yan Hong, provoked by Rong Yan’s words ‘none of your damn business’, shook off his hand and glared at Rong Yan dead in the eye. “I’m going to sit right here!”

“Here?” The manager was taken aback, glanced around with a troubled expression, “Miss Yan Hong, there are no seats available here. Besides, this area is too noisy and crowded; your identity could easily be recognized…”

Yan Hong, feeling indignant, raised her voice, “Am I supposed to hide from the public?”

The manager, while wiping sweat, cautiously explained, “That’s not what I mean at all, how could you need to hide? I’m just worried that Miss Yan Hong, being so popular and having so many fans, might get disturbed during your meal if they bump into you. We’ve prepared a special private room for you, the very one you’ve always liked. Ever since you mentioned you liked it, the boss has reserved it exclusively for you and hasn’t allowed anyone else to use it.”

This Haidilao is very well-known in Capital City; aside from having outlets here, it has chains all over the country. The owner behind it is a big shot in the catering industry, owning several chain brands and also holds a minor share in a few popular domestic beverages. In Capital City, he is considered a person of substantial wealth and status.

The paparazzi have always been itching to capture something tangible about Yan Hong’s relationship with this tycoon.

However, the tycoon has connections in both the legitimate and underworld circles, and so far, no concrete evidence of their relationship has been leaked.

Although the paparazzi don’t dare to reveal anything outright, they’ve often hinted at her special relationship with the tycoon using the code name ‘Miss Y’ behind the scenes.

Yan Hong herself has seen these speculative gossip pieces but has never had her agent intervene.

Because she knows very well the nature of her relationship with the tycoon!

She also wanted to use the media to subtly pressure the tycoon, hoping to become legitimate. However, it seems he either has never taken notice or simply doesn’t care; every time she brings up marriage, he changes the subject.

If she insists unwisely on the topic, he would get annoyed and sometimes not contact her for two or three months at a stretch.

After enduring several cold wars, she has learned her lesson. Now she’s just hell-bent on raking in money and resources, while trying to find some presence in these affiliated establishments, making everyone treat her as the boss’s lady. She’s hoping that this would gradually influence the situation and one day allow her to rise to the top.

Her visit today wasn’t merely for the purpose of dining but because a businessman by her side has taken a liking to Xia Xue and wanted to have her for a couple of days.

The businessman is on good terms with her sugar daddy, and naturally, as ‘Understanding Flower,’ she wanted to relieve her sugar daddy of worries and readily deliver the beauty to him.

Xia Xue is tough; she made her move as soon as Yan Hong hinted at it, displaying the attitude that she’ll do anything to climb up, even if it meant being kept.

Yan Hong enjoyed the manager’s cautious courtesy while stubbornly making a tough request, seemingly indifferent, “I don’t want to be in a private room today. I want to sit at this table, is that not possible?”

“This…” The manager’s forehead began to sweat as he spoke awkwardly, “Miss Yan Hong, these two are also customers. It wouldn’t look good for Haidilao to ask customers to give up their table before they’ve finished eating.”

Yan Hong’s face darkened abruptly, “Are you saying you won’t accommodate my request?”
