After Reborn, I Became the Bigshots' Beloved novel Chapter 138

Chapter 138: Chapter 138: Is That a Dessert House or Heaven?

Customers flocked to Lu Qianrou’s café, some drawn by Yao Xuantong, but the vast majority were there for Lu Ziye.

That’s Lu Ziye, the unrivaled top star in the entertainment industry!

Usual tickets for his events are scalped for thousands, and that’s just to catch a glimpse from afar.

Today, for $300, you could meet him up close and even hear him sing the hit song from his new album live. What a deal!

The school had only been open for half an hour, and Lu Qianrou’s café was already packed, with even more people crowded outside in line.

Their café was not only huge, but the décor was clearly pricy – utterly dreamy and luxurious.

For the sake of prestige, even the imported chandeliers were of an exorbitantly expensive brand, and every table had Doraemon figures encrusted with rhinestones, sparkling and lovely to behold.

So a lot of girls were taking pictures and checking in.

But since they came to consume, they definitely had to order something to drink while waiting.

Then the earliest customers finally got their coffee after a long wait, and upon tasting it, they found the flavor of the coffee in the café to be—

Well, quite perfunctory.

Like it was just made with instant coffee.

One girl took a sip and sensed something was off. She stopped Tang Yiyi, who was delivering the coffee, and asked if their coffee was made from instant coffee.

Tang Yiyi frowned on the spot, arrogantly lifted her chin, said "no," and then turned and walked away.

But that girl was quite knowledgeable about coffee.

For instance, she could tell whether her cappuccino was made from instant coffee or brewed by a machine just by tasting it.

No way, the café was charging $30 a cup for regular coffee; could it be that it wasn’t freshly made by a coffee machine but just instant coffee powder mixed with water?

Wasn’t that just swindling customers?

It was bad enough that the coffee was made with instant coffee, but even worse that they denied it when asked. And to top it off, the service attitude was terrible.

The girl felt like she had been duped.

Then she thought, after all, they didn’t come for the coffee, but to see Lu Ziye. For the sake of meeting her idol, she decided to just bear with it.

Indeed, the coffee Lu Qianrou and her team were making in the kitchen was simply mixed from instant coffee powder.

Lu Qianrou herself didn’t want to be so half-hearted.

But there was no help for it since only Hu Yun was making coffee in the kitchen. Even if she worked like a horse, she couldn’t possibly make so many cups of coffee on her own.

Why was Hu Yun the only one making coffee—

Fu Siya and Yao Xuantong, one came to get back at Lu Sheng.

Only to be humiliated by Lu Sheng’s retort at the school gate; now sitting with a face as dark as iron, busy with her phone, unreachable.

Another came purely for Lu Ziye.

She settled herself comfortably as soon as she entered and busied herself with listening to music, playing with her phone, or reapplying makeup in the mirror.

She was supposed to serve in the café for a day, but in reality, she did nothing of the sort, completely ignoring the fans who came for her.

As for Tang Yiyi and Lin Ya, being precious daughters, how could they do such labor?

Bending over to prepare coffee cup by cup in the kitchen was too exhausting, they felt it beneath them to even deign to deliver orders.

Lu Qianrou herself was even less likely to work.

Wearing a beautiful, expensive custom dress, what if it got stained with coffee in the kitchen?

Plus, she had always been served by others; when had she ever served anyone? It was too demeaning.

Thus, Hu Yun, the lackey of these precious ladies, turned into the biggest victim, slaving away in the kitchen without a moment to straighten her back.
