Qin Zhuzhu tried to push him away but it was useless. It was as if she was pushing a wall because he didn't bulge.
"H-how?" She asked him when she saw the way his eyes roamed her body.
A naughty idea suddenly came into Shentu Jing's mind. This was a heaven sent opportunity.
"Be my fake girlfriend," he said with a smirk.
"What? No way," she told him decisively.
"You don't want to? I'm very rich. You're not interested at all?" Shentu Jing didn't believe that she would refuse him. There were so many girls out there who would do anything just to get his attention. Yet this girl just refused him right in the face.
"I don't care whether you're rich or not. Your attitude turns me off, so no way," she said confidently. She smiled cockily at him, blinking those seductive eyes at him.
"Didn't you say you will compensate me? This is the only compensation I want. I can call the police on you for sexual harassment," he threatened her.
"It's obviously you who's harassing me!" Her jaws dropped at his ridiculous words.
"You're right. I'm harassing you, but I'll say it's you. After all, money makes people do things, hmm?" He smirked.
He left no room for her to refuse. He leaned and continued to press her against the counter, her back almost touching the cool surface. She could feel his body heat invading her senses and her heart was starting to beat faster and faster.
"Alright, I'll agree. But I'm very expensive. One day, five thousand," she stated her price.
Money grubber! Shentu Jing liked her boldness.
"24 hours a day, you have to be by my side or at least, answer my calls and messages whenever I make them. Do you understand?" He pinched her small chin.
"How demanding. You have to keep your distance from me too," she stood her ground despite being cornered by him.
"If other people are looking, we'll have to act intimate. Do you get it?" He smiled charmingly at her.
Qin Zhuzhu nodded. "Alright. But you have to respect me too. I have my demands. If you dare to do something to harm me or cheat me, I'll tell everyone that you are afraid of rats," she tilted her head to one side and grinned.
She got him by the throat. With the way she was smiling at him, he might as well say that she is trying to seduce him.
"Fine," he agreed, realizing that she was no ordinary woman.
"Zhuzhu, where are the cocktails? What are you - oh my god!" One of her colleagues came in and was shocked by the scene before her. So intimate on the counter!
Shentu Jing quickly moved away from Qin Zhuzhu who tried her best to look presentable.
"Get a room and not at work. Zhang Lan is looking for you. I won't tell on you. Hurry up!" The female colleague quickly dashed off into the kitchen to avoid these two inappropriate people.
"Don't disturb me, Mr. Pervert," Qin Zhuzhu shoved a finger in his face.
"Sure. But don't call me Mr. Pervert," he grabbed her finger and pulled it towards his chest. He forcefully placed her hand on his chest. His heartbeat felt steady unlike hers. Blame it on his good looks!
"Whatever," she said and turned away holding a tray.
She walked out and saw Zhang Lan waiting for her. She had talked to some of the waiters and waitresses.
"Go serve table 19. At 9pm the event will officially commence. It'll last for an hour. After the guests leave, I'll pay everyone their bonus," Zhang Lan said.
"Thank you ma'am!" Qin Zhuzhu bowed and went to serve the guests.
"This food is not good at all! Look at the quality! Is that the best you can offer? And you even call yourself a 5 star restaurant!?" Xu Lan shouted at the waitress who was serving her. The waitress only bowed, trembling as she was afraid to open her mouth.
Qin Zhuzhu saw what happened. She was torn whether to step in or not. Then she made up her mind. She can't hide forever from her jerk ex-husband and his family. All were rotten!
She approached the table.
"I'll take over from here," she told that waitress who nodded and gave her a grateful smile before she left.
Xu Jing and Xu Lan immediately recognized her!
"Qin Zhuzhu!" Xu Lan's eyes widened.
"What are you doing here?!" Xu Jing raised her voice.
Bai Qianhua looked up meekly at Qin Zhuzhu. Xu Meng gazed at his ex wife who seemed to not show signs of sadness. He expected her to be clingy. Was she here to latch onto him and insult him in front of everyone?
"I work here. What do you like to eat?" Qin Zhuzhu's voice was calm and had no emotions. Her gaze met Xu Meng's and then Bai Qianhua. No wonder Xu Meng would divorce her for this girl.
Bai Qianhua looked weak and timid, which made any man want to pull her to his chest and protect her. No matter how she tried to act timid or gentle, she couldn't be someone she was not. Oh well, Qin Zhuzhu had given up on pleasing this bunch of snakes in front of her.
"All these foods are not suitable for my appetite! Don't you have anything better than this, miss hobo?" Xu Lan openly insulted her. Xu Jing burst into laughter while Xu Meng and Bai Qianhua didn't show any signs of laughing. But Zhuzhu knew that they were enjoying themselves in their hearts.
"Then I'm sorry that we don't have what you want. Why don't you go home and invite your 10 star chef over? Our restaurant is not good enough to do business with customers that are self-centred!" Qin Zhuzhu smiled politely.
"Qin Zhuzhu! What are you saying!? Are you insulting me?!" Xu Lan glared daggers at her.
"I didn't say I was, miss Xu. You said it yourself," Qin Zhuzhu said.
Xu Lan was red in the face. Seeing this poor bitch only made her more angry and ruined her mood.
"Hah! Now I get it! Qin Zhuzhu, you purposely chose to work here because you knew that my brother was going to attend the Tianjin Tech event. I didn't expect you to resort to such means to seduce my brother!"
