Chapter 41: Who dares to care about you?tell me ge'er
Lie Ruge was very bored. She couldn't endure the boredom any more so she decided to accept CEO Yi's lunch invitation. He wanted to pick her up from the office but she declined his offer. The CEO, Yi Lan was happy that she was finally willing to see him. Lie Ruge was not familiar with this particular restaurant. Although Xiao Bai had dragged her to so many restaurants but, this was her first time in this restaurant. At the front desk, the host greeted her while sizing her up from head to toe, since Lie Ruge just left her office for her appointment in the restaurant. She was still in her professional attire, wearing a black skirt and a white, long sleeve shirt on the top with her hair tied into a bun. The female host wasn't satisfied with Lie Ruge's looks, she thought Lie Ruge looked kind of old fashioned and not suitable to appear in such a posh restaurant.
"How may I help you?" She asked in an annoyed tone.
"I have an appointment with Young Master Yi." Lie Ruge said.
"Young Master Yi? Are you sure of that?" The female host asked while assessing her with a look of disgust. Lie Ruge hated this situation where a common host tried to look down on her. Although the clothes she wore today might look a little inferior to ordinary people who were not into fashion but the cloth was made with the finest material. Xiao Bai had selected it for her during one of their shopping sprees and it was quite expensive.
"Do I need to answer that question?" Lie Ruge asked in a harsh tone.
"Of course; how dare you try to use Young Master Yi's name to deceive me. You think just anyone can meet Young Master Yi? Go and have a look at yourself in the mirror again before trying to call Young Master Yi's name," She replied rudely. The host was one of CEO Yi's admirers. She had tried many methods to make Young Master Yi notice her but he had never given her a second glance. Therefore, she would never allow anyone to snatch Young Master Yi away from her. A troublemaker arrived just in time to worsen the situation.
"I can't believe we met again," Lie Changle exclaimed. She was there when her cousin entered the restaurant. She had witnessed how the host was embarrassing her and she couldn't be more than happy to join in on the fun and give her the best embarrassment of her life.
"Here comes the troublemaker." Lie Ruge muttered in an inaudible manner. The host heard what she said since she was standing close to her. She gave Lie Ruge a mean look.
"What brings you here?" Lie Changle asked.
"Then what brings YOU here?" Lie Ruge asked with contempt. This cousin of hers always brought about misfortune whenever she was around her.
"What's with your tone? Of course, I'm here with Dad. Dad wanted to celebrate my new award. Don't tell me you were not aware that the Best Actress of the Year's award was won by me? It wasn't such a big deal though because I have always won the award every year. Aren't you proud of me?" Lie Changle asked cutely while smirking on the inside. Everyone who was listening to their discussion could tell that she was indirectly mocking the other lady.
"Your acting sucks," Lie Ruge replied sharply. People started laughing at Lie Changle the moment they heard Lie Ruge's mocking remark." I will not lose again this time." She thought while gritting her teeth in anger.
"How can you say that? I'm everyone's favourite actress in the whole of Major City. So, how can you say my acting sucks?" Lie Changle asked meekly.
"You have poor acting skills" Lie Ruge walked closer to her, leaned in and whispered to her ears," And I bet your mother spent a fortune just to get you the best actress award this year too." Lie Changle was annoyed but she knew how to get back at her.
"Thanks for the compliment. I bet you meant to say I am the most talented actress of all time", Lie Changle said proudly.
"You can keep on deceiving yourself, I don't care," Lie Ruge replied while turning around to face the female host once again.
"I never knew a low class socialite like you would have the guts to insult one of our VIP customers. You have the audacity to state that Young Master Yi was your date. How shameless!" The female host stated in a taunting manner. Lie Ruge wasn't the type to pick up a fight with any lower-class person unless they annoyed her first. She was surprised that the front host who was supposed to be the model of this restaurant was the one belittling their customer.
"Yeah Ge'er, the host is correct. Don't tell me you were not aware that this restaurant is for couples only and, how can Young Master Yi be your date. Stop embarrassing yourself in public. You said I have poor acting skills right? But I don't think so. Everyone likes and adores me because of my amazing acting skills, unlike a certain someone. Who dares to care about you? Tell me Ge'er," Lie Changle tried to prick at her cousin's painful past.
"I do." A man dressed in a blue suit answered sternly.
