Chapter 615: Chapter 618: Occupation, Impossible
In the past, Ye Xingbei would always yield to the Ye Family members no matter what the issue was.
For this reason, the manager dared to disrespect Ye Xingbei by reassigning the room without notifying her, just to indulge Ye Tao.
He assumed that the moment Ye Xingbei found out Ye Tao had taken her room, she would quietly leave to the room he had arranged for her.
But he never expected that Ye Xingbei would act out of character today, asserting herself like never before.
Actually, he was just trying to please Ye Tao, he had no intention of offending Ye Xingbei. After all, Ye Xingbei’s standing in the Ye Family may be low, but she had Ye Xingli as her backbone.
The situation could go bad for him if the Second Young Master, who is known to be reckless, got wind of it. If Ye Xingbei complained to Ye Xingli, Ye Tao might still get off the hook, but he himself would certainly face consequences.
He didn’t expect Ye Xingbei’s unexpected behaviour. She didn’t back down like she usually did when dealing with other Ye Family members. A situation he thought was simple had suddenly become complex, instantly making him sweat in apprehension.
“Tha…That…” The manager stammered, “What if…what if I give you the meal on the house?”
“Not necessary,” Ye Xingbei calmly replied, “In business, integrity is paramount. You don’t need to waive my bill or give me discounts, just return my room to me.”
“This…this…” The manager stuttered as he sweated profusely, he looked at Ye Tao in desperation, “Miss Taotao, what do you think…?”
Ye Tao was displeased.
In the past, whether it was food, toys, or any desirable item, as long as Ye Xingbei possessed it and her siblings showed interest, she would give it to them easily.
But now, what’s this?
Her classmates were all seated and the pre-dinner desserts were already on the table. How could she switch rooms at this point? Where would this leave her face?
She put away her smile, her face showing an aggrieved expression. Biting her lip, she accused, “Sister Beibei, do you have anything against me? When my brothers and sisters asked you for things, you’d hand them over without a fuss. Now, all I’m asking you to do is lend me the room for a while, but you’re putting up resistance. Are you doing this on purpose?”
Ye Xingbei looked at her indifferently, “I don’t have anything against anyone, I’m only asserting my rights. The room was booked in advance by me. If you had consulted with me in advance, I might have agreed. But forcibly taking over? No way!”
Ye Tao was infuriated, “My friends are all settled in, do you want us to switch rooms now? You can’t even lend me a room, how can you be so petty?”
“Yes, I am petty,” Ye Xingbei laughed, “Now that you know, you can move to another room with your friends.”
“No way!” Ye Tao angrily responded, her face darkening, “Ye Xingbei, this place belongs to the Ye Family, don’t think that because you carry the Ye surname, you are part of the family. You’re nothing more than a dog raised by the Ye Family, yet you dare to bark in front of the master? Get lost immediately, or I will call eldest cousin brother and let him teach you a lesson you won’t forget!”
“Alright,” Ye Xingbei looked at her coldly, “I’ll wait right here, go and tell Ye Xinglan. I am waiting for him to teach me a lesson.”
The manager went weak at the knees.
If this incident reached Ye Xinglan and Ye Xingli, regardless of what would happen between Ye Xingbei and Ye Tao, he knew that his days as a manager would be over.
He deeply regretted it. He should not have taken sides, trying to curry favour with Ye Tao at the expense of Ye Xingbei.
Since the room was booked in advance by Ye Xingbei, he wouldn’t have a leg to stand on no matter where he complained.
