"What happened?"
"The menu we ordered, didn't everyone else know about it already? Just order according to what's on it tonight. The people in front got their share, but the people a little later didn't get any."
"Then, someone overheard the waiters complaining that Kong Lian didn't even prepare things for them at the highest standard, but just an ordinary level. They also heard the waiters grumbling behind their backs that they were ungrateful and country bumpkins who didn't know anything."
"Now a lot of people are furious."
Since the teacher came out to maintain order and speaking up for Kong Lian didn't work either.
With this commotion to watch, Ren Ran would of course not miss it and watched the excitement unfold in the big group chat.
Good heavens, the messages kept surging up rapidly, not stopping for even a minute, 99+ messages in no time.
"If you can't deliver what you said, then don't make promises."
"Just be honest with us, we won't say anything. How can you play us like this?"
"They probably just thought we were easy to fool."
"You don't know how the waiters were talking about us."
"Ah! Everyone stop fussing. It's good enough that we got something to eat."
"That's right, let's all say less. After all, we didn't spend a cent."
"You people are really laughable, someone spent money and you're scolding them, isn't that going too far?"
"Why did she spend money? Poster above, don't you know?"
"She spent money because she lost. If you want to talk about gratitude, it should be to Ren Ran."
"I don't accept Kong Lian's favor, I accept Ren Ran's."
"The two of them bet, and by rights the fruits of victory should go to Ren Ran, but Ren Ran shared the fruits with everyone, so the thanks should also go to Ren Ran, not Kong Lian."
Hu Xiyue and a few others were naturally eating the best stuff remaining close to Kong Lian's side.
But now everyone had lost their appetites.
Kong Lian naturally also saw the messages in the big group chat, especially seeing so many people saying thanks to Ren Ran instead of her, and her blood pressure kept rising.
"You guys eat."
Kong Lian got up.
Hu Xiyue wanted to say something, but seeing her unpleasant expression, obediently kept her mouth shut.
Kong Lian went straight to find the general manager of the resort.
"Manager Wang, because of your hotel's inadequate food preparation, my reputation has been damaged. How does your hotel plan to handle this?" she asked coldly.
Manager Wang smiled apologetically, "Miss Kong, I told you about the situation beforehand. Preparing those ingredients, we can source them but because it was urgent, the costs would be higher than normal. You didn't agree because you felt it wasn't cost-effective."
Also, you yourself said back then that preparing those would be enough to placate them.
So it's not reasonable to come and blame us now.
"I've come to find you to resolve this issue, not for you to raise doubts."
Manager Wang said with a smile, "We can source from other suppliers and hotels now, but the price will be higher than what I mentioned before."
"When can you get it?"
"It'll definitely be ready for everyone to eat by noon tomorrow."
"Fine, source it then."
"Okay." Manager Wang agreed with a smile.
Kong Lian said, "You need to explain to everyone that the inadequate food preparation this time was because your hotel didn't consider things thoroughly. Understand what you need to do?"
"Understand."
Kong Lian left satisfied.
After she left, the door behind opened.
Ren Ran walked out from the room and sat down on the sofa.
Manager Wang respectfully called out, "Miss."
"You've really gone out of your way."
Manager Wang smiled and said, "This is what I should do."
"What happened?"
