Be Good
This was the first time in her life that someone had pointed at Nan Ge’s nose like this and scolded her.
Her long eyelashes fluttered slightly and she was speechless.
“Ma’am, I haven’t moved at all. Your son knocked into me with a plate.”
“What does that have to do with me?”
She had her back facing the child just now and was patiently waiting for the orders. She did not move at all.
Moreover, she was leaning against the wall and was not in the way.
Unexpectedly, in the next second, a force hit her from behind and she almost lost her balance!
She did not blame this woman for not looking after her child. Instead, she was being blamed. How interesting.
“How can you say that? I’m going to file a complaint against you!”
Nan Ge almost rolled her eyes in her heart. She suppressed herself and explained once more. “Ma’am, first of all, it’s you who didn’t take good care of the child.”
“Secondly, the little kid isn’t injured. He just got some dessert on his clothes. It’s not right for you to come up and point the finger at me indiscriminately.”
“Do you think he’s uninjured just because you said so?” The woman stood up and refused to give up. “Let me ask you, are you a doctor?”
Nan Ge was speechless. She really had the worst luck.
The manager rushed over when he heard the commotion. “What’s wrong? What’s wrong?”
“This kid just bumped into me and knocked over the plate in his hand. This lady said I was at fault.” Nan Ge explained the situation to the manager.
“Are you suggesting I’m making a false accusation? Is it not your problem? How could a waitress do this? Can’t you see?”
Nan Ge could not take it anymore. “Excuse me. Do I look like I have eyes on the back of my head? I was waiting for orders. How could I see anyone from behind?”
“What kind of attitude is that?!” The woman got annoyed and took two steps toward Nan Ge.
Seeing this, the manager’s scalp went numb. He quickly pushed Nan Ge behind him and stood in front of the woman. He smiled apologetically. “Ma’am, don’t be angry. I’m the manager. If you have any concerns, you can let me know.”
“She’s still young and doesn’t know anything. Don’t be angry. Come, come, let’s talk over there…”
“No, I want to file a complaint against her!”
“No, don’t. It’s not easy for students to work part-time, right? Why don’t you check to see if your kid is injured first? This is the most important thing, right?”
After the manager finished speaking, he winked at Nan Ge when the woman was not paying attention, signaling her to leave quickly.
Nan Ge gritted her teeth, feeling indignant.
However, after thinking about it, she decided not to cause trouble for the manager.
She turned to pick up her things and prepared to leave.
“Where are you going? Are you leaving without apologizing?”
The woman reached out to grab her.
“Hey!” The manager quickly stopped her. “Please don’t touch her. Let’s talk things out! I’ll apologize to you, okay?”
Upon hearing this, Nan Ge completely exploded. She pushed the manager in front of her away and rolled up her sleeves. “Why are you apologizing? You didn’t do anything wrong. Stand aside!”
Make way so that she could give this woman a piece of her mind!
She took a step forward with her hands on her hips and met the woman’s gaze. “Why should I apologize? Don’t you understand English? I’ve said it a few times. This was not my fault.”
“You lectured me the moment you came over. I haven’t asked you to apologize to me yet! You, on the other hand, are like a steel cannon that refuses to stop firing.”
“Also, I’m not afraid of you complaining. Do you see that?” She pointed at the surveillance camera above her head. “If you don’t believe me, go and look at the surveillance video. If you can prove I bumped into your boy, forget about apologizing, I can even kowtow to you.”
“However, you owe me an apology if it wasn’t me!”
“Don’t you know how important customers are? You have to do everything I ask.”
Nan Ge snorted coldly. “I don’t care if you’re God. Anyway, you’re not my father. What right do you have to lecture me?!”
The woman’s face promptly looked embarrassed. She could only pull the manager over and teach him a lesson. “Look at this. Look at what your employee is doing! How dare you call yourself a manager?”
“Why did you drag him into this?!” Nan Ge dragged the manager back. “We should settle this between us. You’re just pushing the blame on him when you realized you can’t win the fight. Just try scolding him again!”
The manager, “…” For some reason, he felt a little moved.
The woman raised her hand in exasperation. The moment she struck, a hand reached out from the side and stopped her.
The woman’s hand hit the man’s expensive wristwatch.
“Huh?” Nan Ge and the manager were stunned. They looked to the side in unison.
The heater in the restaurant was turned on, and Shen Yanqing’s suit jacket was left in the private room.
He was wearing a three-piece suit today. At this moment, he was only wearing a vest and a white shirt. Coupled with the silver-framed glasses on his nose bridge, it made him look refined and polite.
“Who are you?”
The woman returned to her senses and asked with a frown.
“It doesn’t matter who I am.” Shen Yanqing’s face was gloomy. He took a step forward and stood in front of Nan Ge. His voice was as gentle as usual.
“Although I don’t know what happened, it’s definitely wrong for you to raise your hand first.”
“Get lost! I don’t need you to meddle in my business!”
Nan Ge stuck her head out from behind Shen Yanqing and glared at her. “Your son is still here. Can’t you have some manners?”
“I didn’t scold you on account of the kid. If you continue doing this, don’t blame me for being rude!”
Shen Yanqing reached out and gently pushed her little head back, indicating for her to hide.
“I…” Nan Ge refused to give up and struggled to stick her head out again.
Shen Yanqing placed his hand on the side of her face and held her head. He stared at her and shook his head gently to stop her. “Be good.”
“…” Pursing her lips, Nan Ge muttered softly and lowered her head obediently.
The manager did not stop either. He used his phone to pull up the surveillance camera and showed it to the woman. “Ma’am, look. It’s indeed your child who ran too quickly and bumped into our waitress.”
“She didn’t move or turn around the whole time, so she couldn’t have seen him. Also, your kid isn’t injured.”
“How about this? Why don’t we send you some free dessert as a token of goodwill? This was indeed a misunderstanding. Why don’t we just compromise?”
“No. You have to at least throw in a free meal!”
“I can’t do it, Ma’am, because this matter is indeed not our fault.” The manager smiled awkwardly.
There were more and more discussions around them. The woman was a little embarrassed. She took out her phone and pointed it at Nan Ge. “I’m going to expose your restaurant for this!”
Shen Yanqing frowned and reached out to protect Nan Ge subconsciously. He raised his other hand and grabbed the woman’s phone.
“If you can’t accept this outcome, other arrangements can be made.”
The man’s dark eyes under his glasses were extremely deep as if he could see through everything.
“Are you the manager?”
“No, he’s not. I’m the manager.” The manager was caught off guard.
“Call the police.”
The manager was stunned and did not move.
Shen Yanqing asked, “Do you need my help?”
