"What am I doing?" Madam Meng retorted. "I called this afternoon to inquire about a private room. You were the one who offered a room that was already reserved. If I had known, I wouldn't have come to dine here tonight!"
She took a deep breath before continuing her tirade. "How dare you give us someone else's private room? Were you planning to let us take the blame for this? I think you should get beaten up for your misconduct!"
The waiter opened his mouth several times to refute Madam Meng, but he couldn't deny that he had indeed tampered with the reservations. In the end, he could only cover his face in shame.
Madam Meng turned to Ma Chao without missing a beat. "I'm really sorry about this, President Ma. I didn't expect the private room to belong to your acquaintances. We are the ones in the wrong here. My husband and I shall pay you a visit next time to apologize properly."
