48 Hours a Day - Chapter 962

Chapter 962: Accident

The boss was about to cry. He felt sorry for the waitress in the short skirt, but he was afraid to stop his wife. He could only stomp his foot, yelling at Xu Qian, “Look at what you’ve done! I have never wronged you! Why are you messing with me?!”

“I’m messing with you?” Xu Qian exclaimed, “I’m just telling the truth. You’ve done so many bad things to me when I worked for you. Do you want me to say them out loud one by one?

“You’re sick!” The boss widened his eyes. “When did you work for me? I don’t even recognize you!”

The lady boss on the other side, who was busy teaching the waitress a lesson, raised her head and asked, “You worked in my restaurant before? When was that?”

“Three years ago,” Xu Qian said. “Rest assured. I didn’t come here to mess with you. You guys can stop pretending to act like a bunch of crazies in front of me.”

“Pretend to be a bunch for crazies?” The lady boss had gotten even more furious now. “I think you are insane. Look at yourself! How can our small restaurant hire someone like you?”

“At that time, I wasn’t as rich as I am now, and I just moved to New Shanghai 0297. The first job I got with my cousin was to be a waitress at your restaurant. Thanks to you, you’ve made me understand that if I want to take control of my destiny, I will have to be desperate enough to climb higher,” Xu Qian sneered.

“What nonsense are you talking about?” The boss looked confused. “You’ve got the wrong person.”

“How is it possible? You are still the same person.” Xu Qian said.

“We did hire an usher three years ago, but now she’s gone to be a waiter at the bar on the next street,” the lady boss snorted contemptuously. “The lady wasn’t serious about the job. However, she only wanted half of the usual salary we offer, so we decided to hire her temporarily. After a year working for us, she resigned.”

“You are lying!” Xu Qian became agitated. She then got up from her seat and took off the 20,000 credit coat. And she did not stop there. She pulled the singlet that she wore and revealed her cleavage.

Although the boss was complaining about the unsuspecting disaster that had befallen him, he could not help but look at Xu Qian.

Xu Qian then pointed at the scar on her chest and said, “Look at this scar! One of the customers’ girlfriends was upset that day. So, she poured the hot fruit tea on me. However, you still forced me to apologize to her. I will never forget that moment.”

“But the problem is that I haven’t done something like that before.”

The owner seemed upset by the fact that Xu Qian was accusing him of something that he had apparently never done before.

For a moment, Xu Qian started to doubt her memories. If they served her well, she remembered that the owner of this restaurant was greasy and disgusting. And his acting skills were never this good.

After that, she saw the lady boss acting like she had received a revelation.

“You… Are you…”

As if suddenly remembering the laws and regulations, she quickly covered her mouth with her hands.

Xu Qian then said angrily, “Do you think I am a clone? Why don’t you shine an ultraviolet light at the back of my neck?”

The lady boss was shocked, and she looked embarrassed. After that, she winked at her husband beside her. He hesitated for a while, went back to the kitchen, and grabbed the ultraviolet lamp he used for disinfection.

Xu Qian did not move. She just stood there and glared at the two of them.

The owner cautiously approached her with the ultraviolet light in one hand and a pot lid in the other. The lady boss, not to be outdone, looked as though she was standing in the face of a formidable nemesis. She even had her hand with the bracelet behind her back, preparing to contact the police.

After that, the owner pressed the switch to the light with his trembling fingers. At the same time, everyone in the rest restaurants subconsciously held their breath.

The boss’s pupils shrank suddenly, and he started to take a step back.

“Well?”

The lady boss had her heart stuck in her throat.

“Nothing,” the owner confirmed honestly.

“Then why did you take a step back?” the lady boss exclaimed.

“I was reminded of the Tang incident,” the owner said. After realizing that it was a false alarm, he breathed a sigh of relief as he put down the lid.

Meanwhile, Zhang Heng, who had been sitting silently, finally said, “Sorry. My friend here has encountered a severe traffic accident before. It affected her head greatly. I hope you don’t take her words to heart. We will pay you to double for this meal.”

The boss looked like he was crying without tears, “If your head is sick, go for treatment. Don’t come here to make a scene out of nothing. Besides, even if you pay me double the money, you can’t make up for the damage you caused to my marriage.”

Xu Qian opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but Zhang Heng stopped her by glaring at her. Zhang Heng then said, “What do you guys want?”

The owner looked at his wife, the lady boss, beside him. The latter thought for a while and looked at the coat Xu Qian took off. She then gulped, “If you want to make it up to us, you will have to pay us. Five, oh no, ten times the cost of this meal.”

“Okay. Deal.” Zhang Heng nodded.

The lady boss almost dropped her jaw. She knew Xu Qian was rich, but she did not expect her to be this rich. if she knew, she would’ve asked them to pay twenty times the cost of this meal.

When the lady boss was thinking of all the money that she could earn, she heard the waitress in the short skirt in the corner suddenly asking, “What… What’s a clone?”

“Darn! It was too fu*cking chaotic just now. I totally forgot about you,” moaned the owner.

He then said to his wife again, “We have no other options. Let’s just call the company.”

The waitress was still confused and was oblivious as to what had happened to her. Less than five minutes later, a blue car that operated on new energy sources stopped in front of the restaurant. The car was no different from the other cars on the street, and the four people who got out of it also looked ordinary, just like any other ordinary office worker.

The three men escorted the waitress to the car. And the other man said to the lady boss, “I will send the bill to your mailbox later.”

The lady boss looked pained. “We didn’t mean for this to happen. We know the rules. It was a slip of the tongue. Can you give us a discount?”

“I’m afraid that’s not going to work,” the man said.

“Also, can you change her character again? I don’t want her to be so flirtatious. My husband has very poor self-control. He can’t control his lower half.”

“Weren’t you the one who chose this character for her? You wanted her to attract more men, right?” the man asked rhetorically. He then glanced at Xu Qian and Zhang Heng in the restaurant. “We shouldn’t talk about such things in public. Let’s talk about the specific details by e-mail later. Or you can visit our place tomorrow if you have the time.”

“Good, good,” the lady boss nodded repeatedly.
