Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 1314: Chapter 1328: How Did It Get Discovered?

”Who did you just say was on duty with you?” She knew that coming here at this time wasn’t the usual meal hour, but An Ran didn’t expect that even having a meal would turn out to be such a coincidence. If the person the waiter mentioned was who she thought it was, then this bottle of orange juice would really need some studying.

She remembered that the waiter just now also said that the person who was on duty with her was supposed to help her deliver this orange juice.

”Wang Xia, our new intern waiter at the Kong Mansion Banquet,” the waiter instinctively replied and then looked towards the manager.

”Is there a problem?” The duty manager also looked at An Ran. He had just tasted the contents of this bottle himself, and not just the customer—even he, as a duty manager—knew there was definitely something off... the stuff was bitter!

No matter what, something this bitter shouldn’t appear in orange juice. Looking at An Ran’s reaction to the waiter, could there really be some unspeakable conspiracy involved?

”I’m not sure yet if it’s the same person. Manager, can you call that waiter over for me to see?” An Ran said.

The manager didn’t dare to delay and quickly asked Xue to fetch Wang Xia, while also notifying the security department to investigate the surveillance footage from Box 5 to the back kitchen area. With something like this happening, the best approach was to find out what was wrong. Regardless of what this stuff was, it couldn’t be taken lightly.

Although the Kong Mansion Banquet is the top restaurant in the Imperial City, it also means that no ordinary diner comes to dine at the Kong Mansion Banquet. At the very least, they were all small white-collar workers.

Even if they don’t have any major power in their hands, they are all quite savvy. You have to admit that the more people care about their standard of living, the more they care about things like this.

What if any of these three guests is a rich lady from some wealthy family or a future Young Madam? This situation could easily turn into an annual palace intrigue drama.

The duty manager, having worked here for so many years and dealing with so many people, became more aware of what was happening. While waiting for Xue to fetch Wang Xia, he wiped the sweat off his forehead with his sleeve.

Wang Xia was still on another floor, excitedly anticipating her good news.

When Xue found her, her heart skipped a beat, but she tried to maintain her composure and asked Xue with a smile, ”Is it too busy to handle? I told you, I’d come and help you. There are usually few guests at this hour anyway.”

Xue’s face was not good, and she snorted coldly at Wang Xia’s words, ”Save your kindness, Wang Xia. I used to think you were a decent person, respecting you by calling you Sister Wang. Never thought you’d turn out to be this sort of person.”

Wang Xia followed behind her, puzzled, and chuckled, ”Sister, what are you saying? I don’t understand. What’s going on? Did I do something wrong to make you misunderstand? Also, where are you taking me? I’m about to go off work.”

”You better hope it’s a misunderstanding. Also, I’m not the one calling you, it’s the duty manager. There’s an issue with the drinks in Box 5. Can you really say it has nothing to do with you?” Xue couldn’t keep things to herself. She had been working just fine, and suddenly this happened today, making her uncomfortable. Later, she thought it might be Wang Xia’s doing. Facing Wang Xia, she couldn’t hold back her words and said whatever was on her mind.

With that, Wang Xia’s entire face turned pale. She had clearly dissolved the drug into it; how could it have been discovered? Even if it had been found, who could prove it was her who put the drug in? Just as well, she wanted to see what would happen to that woman.
