Chapter 433: Akin to a festival

Pei Yuan looked apologetic. “This is the only thing I could think of to make up for my mistake. I thought this would cheer you up. But…” he peeked at the crowd outside, “I honestly didn’t expect that my article would have this effect to attract such a long line of customers. I think I made things harder for you to manage.”

Nana shook her head. “No, no. You don’t have to feel guilty. I also didn’t notice that man’s presence. It was just too sudden, so nobody is at fault.”

Pei Yuan sighed. “You are too kind.”

Nana said, “And I appreciate your gesture. Every owner wants to have as many customers as they could. I am so happy to see so many people talking and feeling good about Natsukashi. Once again, thank you for writing this amazing article.”

Pei Yuan grinned. “As long as you are happy. Oh, and don’t worry about the management. I have already called arranged for that.”

Nana was surprised. “Really? How? There so many customers, and we have only twenty tables here.”

Pei Yuan smiled. “Wait and watch.”

They heard some noise and commotion outside.

“Our help is here.”

As they went outside, Nana and Meiling watched in a stupor as lines of cars stopped one behind the other. Several men stepped out of them. They took out all sorts of materials, and by the end of it, Nana lost track.

From the start to the end of the street where Natsukashi was located at the center, the seemingly infinite men already started working with a speed akin to lightning. They managed the crowd and asked them to stand at one side while the other pedestrians and passers-by were told to wait for a few minutes.

As the street got almost empty, the men started to fill the wide space of the road with chairs and tables. They evenly spread out all of them until they covered the whole street. And just as fast, they set all the cutlery and menus, too, on all the tables. There were so many of them that it could easily fit the whole crowd.

They didn’t end there. Some men went up to Natsukashi’s terrace and arranged the place as similar to the street. The crowd watched in awe and wondered how the situation unfolded in just a matter of a few minutes.

Just as they thought the sitting arrangement was made, the men pulled out heaps of curtain cloth and decorations. At each table, they temporarily fixed a stand from which they hung the curtain in the shape of an umbrella, hooking and spreading it at the top and giving a beautiful roof to the table. They decorated the tables with beautiful and fragrant flowers.

“OMG! That is so beautiful!” a young woman murmured in the crowd.

“They even managed to give us shade while we would sit outside.”

“That is thoughtful.”

Pei Yuan’s men did the same settings at the terrace too. In just a few minutes, the entire street was beautifully decorated as if a huge festival was going on. But they also made sure that the pedestrians got enough space to walk, and the setting didn’t block their way.

Nana was wracking her brains on how to serve and satisfy all the customers, and here Pei Yuan’s team took care of everything.

Meiling covered her mouth in disbelief. “This is so awesome. This easily solves our problem. Now, nobody would have to wait for lunch!”

Nana asked, “How could you pull this off in such a short amount of time? Where did you get so many tables? And this idea of turning the whole street…”

She was so amazed that she couldn’t tear her sparkled gaze from the magic that just happened. Yes, for her, it was nothing less than magic that Pei Yuan could arrange for every customer waiting outside of Natsukashi.

Pei Yuan coughed. Naturally, he couldn’t say that it was possible because he was the CEO of Moon Corps. What was impossible for a CEO?

“Well, my manager got delighted with my article and that it brought so much profit for Natsukashi. So when I told him about this predicament, he immediately agreed to help me. He has many contacts in the food industry, so he could easily arrange everything.”

Nana brightened. “Oh, I see! That makes sense! Please send my warmest regards and thank you to your manager. No, it’s better if I call him and personally thank him! Can you give me his number?”

Pei Yuan began to sweat. “Ah, well, he is unavailable for the moment. He might be in a very important meeting…”

“Oh, is that so? That’s unfortunate.” Nana pursed her lips.

“But don’t worry! I will send your message to him.”

“Sure! Then please convey it to him that I, on behalf of Natsukashi’s team, am extremely grateful for this help and arrangements. You saved us today.”

Pei Yuan’s heart thumped. A soft smile laced his lips.

Your welcome, Nana. Anything for you. Your thank you and feelings have already reached me.

He said, “Oh, and don’t worry about the staff as well. I- *cough* I mean, my manager has arranged for lots of waiters and waitresses to serve all the customers. There are chefs too, who will help you in the kitchen.”

She helplessly said, “Y-you have really made all my worries disappear. I cannot thank you enough…”

Pei Yuan smiled.

Meiling jumped in excitement. “Mam, let’s start! Everything is set!”

The people had already started taking their seats, murmuring in excitement.

Nana nodded. “En. Let’s start.”

Liu villa.

Inside Jinhai’s study, Jing and he were continuing to talk about Nana.

“Bro, what should we do now?” Jing asked, feeling concerned. “I don’t want to see sister-in-law so depressed. You should have seen her face when she refused to come for the stroll. She was forcing herself to separate herself from my cute nephews.”

Jinhai smiled and ruffled his head. “Don’t worry. I will talk to your sister-in-law tonight.”

Jing nodded.

Just then, a maid entered, bringing a tray with coffee cups.

“Where is Nana?” Jinhai asked her.

She respectfully bowed. “Young master, Lady Liu is not at home. She has asked to give a message that she is in Natsukashi for some urgent work.”

Jinhai raised his brow. “Natsukashi?”

“Yes, young master.”

“Hm. Leave.”

The maid bowed again and left.

Jinhai was tapping his finger on the desk. He picked up his phone and called Xin.

“Find out why Nana went to Natsukashi today.”

Almost immediately, he got a call back from Xin.

“Sir. There is something big going on in Natsukashi…”

Jinhai calmly heard everything he said.

Jing puffed up his cheeks in anger. “Bro! We should head to Natsukashi right now! That Pei Yuan guy is up to no good again!”

Jinhai was quiet for a few moments. “No. Let it be. Let him do what he wants.”
