Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

Xiao Ming politely greeted Ah Long, but Xiao Chu didn't react at all, didn't even glance at Ah Long, and got into the car directly.

Of course, this is easy to understand. What kind of family is the Chu family? Her maternal family has several drivers.

What's the point of talking to a driver? We're destined to be from completely different worlds.

Dongzi made a gesture of helping him up and got into the car as well.

Ye Chen checked the time: "It's getting late. Let's find something to eat nearby first, otherwise it'll probably be quite late by the time we get to my place. Xiao Ming and Xiao Chu, do you have any dietary restrictions?"

Xiao Ming shook his head: "Don't you know what my taste is? We can eat anything. However, it is indeed a bit inconvenient for pregnant women; they have to avoid spicy foods."

Ye Chen nodded: "Okay, I know a good private restaurant nearby. I'll ask the owner if they have any private rooms!"

Ye Chen then made a phone call. This boss was quite lucky; his phone number was actually saved by Ye Chen, an internet celebrity.

It has to be said that they were really lucky; Ye Chen booked the last private room as soon as it was available.

"Ah Long, I'll send you my location. Just use navigation there!"

Ah Long nodded: "Okay, Brother Ye!"

Ah Long drove around in circles, eventually arriving at a small alley where he found the private kitchen.

It is said that good wine needs no bush, and the same applies to the catering industry.

Delicious and reliable merchants will never have to worry about business!

These types of businesses rely on repeat customers, so the quality of their dishes is generally reliable.

At least the ingredients are fresh and cooked to order, and the hygiene is impeccable.

The main focus is on health and hygiene, and a home-like feeling.

They only receive a few groups of guests each day, because they can't handle too many people.

Although the business isn't as booming as that of big hotels or shopping mall restaurants, it's a steady stream of customers, with customers coming to eat almost every day.

"Is it really safe to eat at this kind of remote little restaurant? Is it even hygienic?" Xiao Chu muttered to herself.

Xiao Ming was slightly embarrassed, but he tried to ease the tension by saying, "They say that even small temples hold great treasures, and delicious food is hidden in the streets. Xiao Chen must have a reason for bringing us here, right, Xiao Chen?"

Ye Chen smiled and nodded: "Yes, this private chef was recommended to me by an older brother. I've ordered from them a few times, and the food is indeed hygienic and reliable. You'll see when you go in. Have something to eat first, and if you're not satisfied, you can come to my place for something else!"

Ye Chen could understand Xiao Chu's worries. After all, it was normal for a wealthy family like her to be particular about their diet.

Especially since she was pregnant, which inadvertently amplified the attention on this topic.

Seeing Ye Chen say this, Xiao Chu stopped talking.

Perhaps it was because of the embarrassing experience of going to the hospital that she chose to make some concessions on this matter.

It's just one meal, it shouldn't be a big problem. I can just eat less later!

After entering the store, Ye Chen gave his reservation information, and the waitress invited them into a private room.

The private rooms are all decorated with wood. Although they are ordinary, they are clean and simple, giving them a retro and rustic feel.

After seeing so many cold, hard concrete cities, coming to a place like this can create a striking contrast and inexplicably calm one's mind.

Ye Chen quite liked this feeling, which is why his first thought was to come here to eat.

Ye Chen looked at the waitress: "Do you still have your free-range chicken stew with red mushrooms?"

The waitress nodded: "Yes, we have some today, but it's a bit pricey because they're all wild!"

Ye Chen nodded: "Okay, one order, price is not a problem!"

If she says the food is wild, then it's very likely that it really is. People who eat at places like this are usually quite savvy. Unless the owner is just looking to make a one-time sale, they won't try to fool people on this kind of issue!

Ye Chen looked at Xiao Ming and Xiao Chu: "This stuff is good for pregnant women, Xiao Chu, you should drink more of it later!"

Xiao Chu smiled and nodded politely, giving a soft "hmm".

Next, Ye Chen ordered several more wild dishes, and had Xiao Ming and Xiao Chu order two portions each, before asking the waiter to serve the food.

Before they could even settle into their seats, the door to the private room was suddenly pushed open.

Three young people walked in, while an old man stood outside the door.

One of the young men swaggered forward, leaned on the table with one hand, and said aggressively, "We've got our hands on this room. You have one minute to get out, or we'll throw you out!"

The other two young men stood aside, watching the scene with amusement, while the old man outside the door lowered his eyes as if he hadn't seen anything.

At this moment, the waitress hurriedly followed, saying, "What are you doing? We already told you we were full for today, please understand!"

A young man stood blocking the doorway and said calmly, "A private room will be available soon, please wait a moment!"

"You can't do this! These are our customers. How are we supposed to do business if you keep doing this?" the waitress said anxiously.

The young man chuckled, "Don't worry, we'll negotiate with them and it won't interfere with your business!"

"Besides, we come here to eat once a week, and we always sit in this private room. We're practically regular customers, so how could you open this private room to other people today?"

The waitress's expression was somewhat complicated; she also vaguely recognized these people.

She was in charge of reception, and she had a general impression of the regular customers.

"But... but you always call to make reservations before, and you didn't make a reservation today, so..." the waitress stammered.

She really wanted to complain, but since they were all regular customers, she couldn't say much.

How can I put it? It's not entirely her fault. She must have made a reservation before she thought of reserving a private room for the other party.

There's nothing wrong with her opening the private room to other guests without a reservation!

In all the hustle and bustle, who can remember so many things?

Although the other party is a regular customer and seems to come often, who would deliberately notice this pattern?

She's just a receptionist; how could she possibly have the brainpower to remember such trivial things?

The young man scoffed, "Hmph, it's been so long, we should have developed a tacit understanding by now. Do we still need to call every time? Fine, since you can't solve it, we'll solve it ourselves. Go tell the kitchen to prepare the usual dishes!"

The waitress actually wanted to ask, "What are the usual dishes?"

Well, this is beyond her control now. She should probably call the boss.

Look at the mess this has made!

......

Ye Chen looked at the people in front of him with great interest. It was really interesting that people were fighting over private rooms when they came out to eat.

Whose fault is it if you didn't make a reservation? You're acting tough just because the private room was taken?

If they had spoken politely, Ye Chen might have been able to get them to share a table, since the table was so big.

They immediately tried to throw them out. Wow, that's incredibly arrogant!

Judging from their auras, they're also cultivators. Heh, interesting!

Ah Long sat in the seat closest to the door. He glanced at the young man who had uttered those threats and said coldly, "Who did you say you wanted to throw out?"
