Chapter 198: A Scene In The Kitchen

The worst-case scenario happened right before the banquet.

The good-for-nothing dropped the birthday buns that were supposed to be placed on Old Master’s birthday cake. The head chef was driven up the wall now that it was too late to bake a new batch.

Livid, the head chef berated her.

The other chefs and sous chefs spectated the whole scene while reserving comments to themselves.

Things would not end well for them if Old Master Situ’s birthday were ruined.

The girl was not the hotel’s employee and was only a part-timer. She appeared very bright but proved to be a bull in a china shop and this ticked off the recruitment manager immensely.

“I’m sorry.” With her head hung low, the girl obsequiously got down to pick up the birthday buns.

“Sorry? What can sorry do?” The head chef yelled in rage. As the girl got on her knees, the menacing head chef aimed his foot at her.

The girl was so focused on picking up the buns that she did not notice that a furious kick was coming her way.

Pulling a long face, Shen Xi grabbed the head chef’s ankle and gave it a strong pull. The big and strong head chef fell onto the ground in a thud.

The head chef let out a scream before getting up in fury. With bloodshot eyes and a grimacing face, he pointed at Shen Xi. “D*mn brat. Who the hell are you?”

Shen Xi had her back facing him as she bent over to help the girl up by the arm. She smiled. “Isn’t your salary enough? Why are you working part-time here?”

The girl lifted her chin to reveal a beautiful bareface. She was none other than Yu An.

“Chairman Shen, I…” Yu An uneasily gazed at her but before she could finish, her eyes widened in shock as the head chef aimed a punch at Shen Xi’s head. Yu An shouted, “Watch out!”

Shen Xi swiftly turned around and seized the head chef by the wrist before slapping him in the face and scoffed at him. “She’s with me.”

The head chef’s head was buzzing from the slap. Red in the eyes, he furiously yelled, “Brat! I’m going to kill you!”

Unfazed, Shen Xi gave him another slap. She curled her lips sadistically and warned him. “I’m just returning the favor.”

Who did he think he was to pick on her people!

Did he think being a leader was all that? Did it give him the right to hit others?

Yu An could be fatally injured had she not stopped him.

Despite having experienced Shen Xi’s temper and raw strength first-hand, Yu An’s mind was still blown away. She was getting emotional and her eyes started welling up “Chairman Shen, you…”

“What’s going on?” Situ Zhangyou hurried over.

Her body froze and her face drained as she heard his voice. Without much thought, she turned around and dashed out of the kitchen.

Everyone in the kitchen straightened their backs and bowed at Situ Zhangyou.

The head chef barely recovered from his fall and Shen Xi’s slaps but as soon as Situ Zhangyou appeared, he got a grip on himself and pointed at Shen Xi with his gritted teeth. “Young Master Situ, I don’t know who she is but this brat caused a scene in the kitchen and hit me!”

Those words just left his lips.

Situ Zhangyou had drawn close to Shen Xi and looked at her with worry written all over his handsome face. “Are you okay? Did you hurt yourself?”
