Chapter 15: Chapter 15: You Set the Location, What Do You Have to Say?

A bejeweled, wealthy woman in her forties stood outside the private room, covering her nose with a handkerchief and staring at the people inside with a look of utter disgust.

Two food-serving robots were blocked behind her portly figure.

"I was wondering where that stench was coming from. Turns out some lowlifes from the Lower Star District snuck into the restaurant!" the wealthy woman mocked, before grumbling in an accusatory tone, "How does such a famous restaurant handle its security?!"

Just then, the restaurant manager heard the commotion and hurried over. 𝑓𝑟ℯℴ𝓂

"Aunt Zhao, what’s wrong?"

Seeing him, a smile appeared on the wealthy woman’s face, but her voice was still shrill. "I could smell the stench from here half a mile away!"

The manager looked into the private room, his expression surprised.

Shu Yao was also quite surprised. She hadn’t expected to run into Lin Zhenxiang, whom she’d met at the last banquet, at this restaurant.

In fact, the Lin Family’s business in the Upper Star District was in the restaurant industry. After Lin Zhenxiang became famous on the Star Network, she boosted the Lin Family’s reputation. Her elders were so pleased that they put her in charge of one of their restaurants.

This very restaurant, named "The Universe Has No End."

Thanks to her fame, it quickly became an internet-famous restaurant.

"Sister Shu, so it’s you." Lin Zhenxiang’s face was warm, but her eyes were filled with cold mockery. "You should have given me a heads-up you were coming. I would have arranged a more... suitable spot for you!"

The Commander hadn’t expected that bringing his wife and child to "check in" at a viral Star Network restaurant would lead to such an unpleasant incident.

’Lowlifes from the Lower Star District?’

’How dare they insult his wife and child right in front of him!’

Qin Shiwei was very displeased. "And who might you be?"

"This is the wife of Zone 2’s deputy chief. She’s also a good friend of my mother’s." After introducing the wealthy woman with an air of superiority, Lin Zhenxiang turned to her and apologized. "Aunt Zhao, I’m so sorry. I’ll have the people in this room removed right away, then have it disinfected and re-set. I won’t keep you and your distinguished friends waiting long!"

’Distinguished?’

’She has no idea that the ones sitting in this room are the Federation’s First Commander and his wife and child!’

Of course, she didn’t know.

The Commander was still wearing that disguise device, so in her eyes, he was just an ordinary, plain-looking man.

Lin Zhenxiang turned back, clasping her hands with a smile and a fawning expression as she pleaded with Shu Yao. "I’m so sorry, Sister Shu, but could I ask you all to move outside to eat? You just came from the Lower Star District, so you probably don’t have that many Star Coins yet. This meal will be on me."

Ignoring her, Shu Yao folded her arms and raised an eyebrow at Qin Shiwei, who was sitting across from her.

"You’re the one who booked this place. What do you say?"

If these people hadn’t interrupted, the family of three might have been enjoying a pleasant meal.

Qin Shiwei stared coldly at the two women outside the door, who were as repulsive as insects. A terrifying chill emanated from the depths of his dark green eyes.

"The deputy chief of Zone 2, is it? Perhaps he and his whole family should go experience life in the Lower Star District."

The wealthy woman’s features twisted. "You wretched man, how dare you curse my husband! Watch your mouth, or I’ll make you regret it, believe you me!"

But when she met his dark green eyes, it was as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over her from head to toe. Her flamboyant, overbearing arrogance was instantly extinguished, and she took a frightened step back.

Lin Zhenxiang’s heart stuttered.

She stared intently at the plain-looking man, realizing his eyes were just like the Federation’s First Commander’s. Even his voice was the same!
