Chapter 236 Yummy Fondue
It was six o’clock in the evening.
Crystal and Robin drove to a newly opened fondue restaurant – Yummy Fondue, located in the southern suburbs of Hallcester.
During this period, the fondue restaurant was already packed with people.
“This new fondue restaurant is doing pretty well, huh.” Robin looked around the bustling scene of the fondue restaurant, where almost all the seats were filled, and said with a smile.
At that moment, he noticed several pairs of murderous eyes staring at him in this place. It seemed that the assassins from the dark world had arrived in Hallcester.
Crystal, arm in arm with Robin, proudly said while smelling the fragrant aroma in the fondue restaurant, “Of course! The place I recommend is definitely good.”
“A few days ago, I heard several executives in the company say that this fondue restaurant had an excellent taste, fresh ingredients, and low prices. Moreover, the quality of service was good.”
“So, I was thinking that I must bring you here to have a taste.”
“Let’s go, we’ll go in. Today, I’m treating you to a feast, order whatever you want!” This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Soon, the staff of the fondue restaurant came up to them, leading them to register at the front desk and receive a meal card for table number
nine.
Crystal sniffed the tantalizing aroma in the hall, took a deep breath, and closed her eyes in delight. “Smelling this, I suddenly felt hungry.”
“Waiter, please bring us a pot of fondue. Then, serve us a portion of the best dish in your restaurant.
The waiter hesitated for a moment, then tentatively asked, “Madam, our restaurant offers hundreds of dishes. If we serve one of each. wouldn’t that be too much?”
Robin nodded. “Each dish is a bit too much, so let’s start with twenty. plates. ten each of meat and vegetable dishes. Make the base of the pot a bit stronger in flavor, and then, a few bottles of drinks will be enough.”
Crystal frowned. “Such good dishes, such good taste, why not have wine?”
“You could drink if you wanted to, but you had to limit yourself! I certainly didn’t want to carry a drunkard home after dinner.”
After the waiter left. Crystal laughed and said, “Not drinking tonight, are you trying to stay sober to do something with me? Hehehe…”
“Bang!”
As Crystal was speaking, a plastic bullet from a toy gun shot towards her eye.
Robin immediately reached out and grabbed.
He looked up to see a boy of about ten, three or four meters ahead, aiming a toy gun at Crystal, ready to shoot again.
The parents beside him were continuously praising the boy.
Before Robin could speak, Crystal stood up politely and said, “Hello,
you must be the child’s parents. With so many people in the fondue. restaurant, playing with this toy gun here could easily hurt someone.
Before Crystal could finish her sentence, the child’s mother immediately became unwilling.
“What do you mean? This is a toy gun, the bullets are just plastic pellets, what harm could it possibly do? Look at you, making a fuss over nothing!”
Crystal was taken aback, not expecting the boy’s parents to be so unreasonable. “You you, I kindly advised you, this is for your own good. You really!”
The boy’s father was instantly displeased, pointing at Crystal. “What do you want? If you dare to talk about my son again, believe it or not, I’ll slap you?”
Robin glanced at the family of three, stood up and pulled Crystal back.
“Don’t pull me! They…” Crystal didn’t expect that the child’s parents would be so fierce to her. Robin didn’t say anything and just pulled her
back.
Robin gestured for her not to be angry, “Alright, we came here to eat. getting angry with this kind of person is not worth it. Our food will be here soon.”
Crystal gave Robin a glance, reluctantly sat down, and muttered, “I was just trying to persuade them to talk about the child. If they upset someone with a bad temper, the child might suffer.”
Robin chuckled lightly, “The parents of those kids don’t care, why are you worrying“?”
Crystal took a deep breath, thinking that it made sense.
The surrounding diners, seeing Robin in this state, shook their heads.
“This man was really useless. His girlfriend was wronged and he didn’t even dare to say a word.
“This guy was such a coward!”
“No, that’s not it. Didn’t you see how unreasonable that boy’s family was? They just didn’t want to get involved with such people.
Seeing that Robin and Crystal were no longer arguing, the boy’s parents proudly said to their son. “Our baby is really great!”
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Under the praise of his parents, the boy continued to wave his toy gun around, running amok in the crowded fondue restaurant.
The security guard in the fondue restaurant, seeing the boy running around, hurriedly approached his parents and advised, “Please keep an eye on your child. The fondue pots that the waiters are carrying are very hot. It would be troublesome if he bumps into them.”
The boy’s mother immediately became angry and said, “Isn’t your fondue restaurant supposed to be a combination of casual dining and entertainment? My baby is so well–behaved, what could possibly go wrong? If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will complain about you!”
The boy’s father also immediately joined in berating the security guard.
The security guard had no choice but to stop arguing with him.
In case of a complaint, I might not be able to keep my job.
No sooner had he finished speaking than a waiter came over with a
piping hot fondue pot
The boy was having a great time, running back and forth in the aisle in. the middle of the fondue restaurant’s dining table.
He crashed directly into the waiter who was holding the bottom of the
pot.
The waiter was greatly shocked.
Given the position in front of them, the entire scalding fondue pot would certainly have doused the child from head to toe.
With such a hot pot base soup, the boy would have been severely burned if he didn’t die.
In a moment of urgency, the server suddenly turned around, spilling an entire pot of boiling hot fondue on his own foot.
Fortunately, only half of the foot was scalded.
The service staff sat on the ground on the spot.
Seeing this scene, the boy deliberately started crying loudly.
The boy’s mother heard the child’s cry and ran to their front.
The staff didn’t ignore the person who had burned their foot, instead, they immediately checked if the boy had been injured.
After checking, seeing that the boy was unharmed, the boy’s mother pointed at the staff member and yelled angrily, “How can you work with such poor quality? Look how scared my child is! You can’t even hold a fondue pot steady, you might as well be dead! If my child had been scalded today, I would have made you pay!”
This service worker was a college student, working to earn tuition fees.
Unexpectedly, the boy’s mother not only did not apologize for her child’s uncultured behavior, but instead cursed loudly.
Tears of grievance fell from his eyes as he murmured. “Your child wast running around in the fondue restaurant, he bumped into me, and my foot got scalded
Upon hearing the waiter’s words, the boy’s father immediately grabbed his collar. “Dare to speak about my son again, believe it or not. I’ll beat you to death! With your poor and pathetic appearance, you have not manners at all. How can you even work? You deserved to get your foot burned!”
The lobby manager of the fondue restaurant rushed over immediately. helped the server up and said. “Sam. you go to the back first, I’ll arrange for someone to take you to the hospital right away.”
Then, apologizing to the boy’s parents finally settled the matter.
“What a crappy fondue restaurant! We’re not coming here to eat next time, the staff’s quality is so poor!” The boy’s father and mother, returning to their seats, still felt annoyed, grumbling for quite a while.
Crystal was speechless as she looked at the scene before her.
“Robin, did you see that? Can the parents of that boy actually do this? Don’t they know that in the long run, it will harm their own child?”
Chewing on his food, Robin said indifferently, “No need to keep this up, they’ll pay the price soon enough. These people have never suffered a loss!”
“Wait a moment?” Crystal looked around, not understanding what Robin meant, when she suddenly saw three familiar faces.
She immediately lowered her head and said, “Robin, the three people who wanted to catch you at the company this morning have also come
here”
The three people who came to the front door, two men and one woman, were Rhonda, Pablo, and Darrin from the Criminal
Investigation Division of LSA
Robin nodded. “That’s right.”
“What’s right?” Crystal looked at Robin, “Are you okay? You seem a bit off today.”
Robin ignored her.
He understood that Rhonda had tracked him down here, surely for the Dark World assassin.
At that moment, a man from table thirteen caught Robin’s attention.
The diner at table thirteen was a man of average build, with a thin face and a pair of wide–rimmed glasses.
Across the table from this man, there was a girl of about seventeen or eighteen years old.
The girl looked very pure and quiet.
The man occasionally glanced at the young girl, a strange light flickering in his eyes.
Such radiance was not vulgar, nor was it obscene, but rather a kind of longing and sorrow.
The girl also noticed the man’s gaze and returned it with a smile.
A warm smile spread across the man’s cool, handsome face.
Such a harmonious and warm scene was suddenly disrupted by a dirty

tissue.
Sitting behind the girl was the family of the boy who had previously been holding a toy gun.
The boy ate for a while, then started to fool around.
He took a napkin from the dining table, spat on it, smeared it with chili oil, and deliberately threw it at the girl.
Every time he splashed the blood–red oil stains on the girl’s white dress, he was extremely happy.
The girl was made to feel very uncomfortable.
However, she knew that this family was unreasonable, so she didn’t want to argue with them.
She shifted her position.
Next, the boy continued to wrap many bones and the remnants of the dishes they had spit out in tissue paper, throwing them at the girl.
This pack of tissues actually fell into the fondue pot.
The girl was quite annoyed, she glanced back at the boy, who was dancing around excitedly.
She sighed and shook her head helplessly.
Had no choice but to order another fondue pot.
The man across from the girl first slightly furrowed his brow.
Seeing that the girl didn’t say anything, he let it go.
The girl originally thought that the little boy would just play for a while.
Unexpectedly, the little boy became even more unrestrained.
Surprisingly, he wrapped up the cigarette butts, bones, toothpicks, and other trash from the table in a napkin and dumped it all into the girl’s fondue pot.
Then, he burst into laughter.
The girl was trembling with anger, yet she dared not speak.
The man at table thirteen across from her suddenly had a murderous look on his face.
It was only when he saw that the boy was under ten years old, he took a deep breath, stood up and said to the boy’s parents, “Hello, could you please control your child? He’s too naughty, he threw all the trash into. the girl’s pot.”
Having said that, he signaled the waiter, “Please add a plate of snacks for the child. I’m treating him…”
The man had said this far.
The boy’s father glanced at the bespectacled man, who was rather skinny, and pointed at him, saying, “What’s the big deal? It’s just a dirty fondue pot, isn’t it? I’ll compensate her for it! My son is still a child, how old are you all, still fussing over this!”
“Waiter, get her a new fondue pot, it’s on me! What’s wrong with people these days, they can’t even tolerate a child, such poor quality!“
