The Xu family heard this and turned to look. When they saw who it was, they suddenly felt embarrassed. It seemed that the more they feared, the more it came true. The person who stopped them was none other than their old acquaintance, Tyson Xu's colleague, Nichol He, and his son Leroy He. It turns out that these two families had quite a history.
Nichol He was the vice president of the hospital where Tyson Xu worked. He had once tried to arrange a marriage between his son, Leroy He, and Nelly Xu. However, Leroy He not only had an unsavory appearance but was also lazy and idle, which made Tyson Xu and Nelly Xu reject the marriage proposal.
Unexpectedly, this rejection had left Nichol He harboring resentment, and he often tried to undermine Tyson Xu at the hospital. If Nichol He saw them being turned away by the hotel, he would surely spread the news all over the hospital. Tyson Xu would lose face in front of his colleagues.
Nichol He forced a smile and asked, "Tyson Xu, what are you doing here?" Tyson Xu casually replied, "Nothing, just strolling around."
Nichol He continued, "Just strolling around and you ended up at the hotel's doorstep? You're not here to have a meal, are you?" Tyson Xu felt embarrassed when his lie was exposed and couldn't come up with a reasonable explanation.
Pryor Ye quickly stepped in to rescue Tyson Xu, saying, "Mom and Dad were tired from walking, so I brought them here for a meal."
"Dad and Mom?" Leroy He, who had been eyeing Nelly Xu all this time, shifted his attention to Pryor Ye. His gaze was filled with hostility. "Nelly Xu, is this your new boyfriend?"
Nelly Xu nodded, and Leroy He became even more displeased. This guy dressed plainly, wasn't particularly attractive, and was far inferior to him. Why did Nelly Xu choose him over me?
Leroy He intentionally humiliated Pryor Ye, saying, "As far as I know, you need a membership card to enter this hotel. Do you have one?"
Pryor Ye shook his head and confidently replied, "No."
This hotel belonged to the Shen family's business empire, and Pryor Ye was essentially the owner, so he didn't need a membership card to enter.
Nichol He and Leroy He couldn't help but burst into laughter. They thought that someone who didn't have a membership card would be embarrassed, but Pryor Ye appeared quite confident. Tyson Xu gave Pryor Ye a disapproving look. This guy didn't know how to show restraint. He had just been told that a membership card was required, and he still wanted to go in without one!
Leroy He smirked, "Nelly Xu, your new boyfriend doesn't seem that great. He clearly has no abilities, but he boasts so much."
"Let's do this. I'll take you inside to broaden your horizons."
Nelly Xu replied coldly, "No need, I'm going in with my husband."
Leroy He snorted, "Hmph, you don't know what's good for you. Do you know why I came here today? I'm here for a blind date with the hotel owner's daughter."
"Her conditions are much better than yours, and I'm willing to give you a chance. It's your loss if you don't cherish it."
With that, the two of them stopped talking and headed for the entrance. A beautiful waitress respectfully asked, "May I see your membership card, Mr. He?" Nichol He replied, "I'm Nichol He, and the hotel owner arranged for me to come here for treatment." The waitress nodded slightly and said, "Mr. He, please follow me."
As they entered, Leroy He provocatively flipped off Nelly Xu's family.
Tyson Xu felt embarrassed and suggested, "Let's go, we should leave." However, Pryor Ye remained unfazed and said with a smile, "Mom, Dad, we haven't regained our dignity yet. How can we leave?"
Saying that, he walked straight to the entrance. The beautiful waitress stopped Pryor Ye and asked, "Sir, do you have a membership card?" Pryor Ye replied, "No."
Suddenly, Pryor Ye said, "By the way, my name is Pryor Ye."
Huh? Upon hearing this name, the four waitresses were shocked.
