After lunch, Ye Qiu returned to his room. Just as he was about to play on the computer, he noticed it was his father, Ye Weidong, calling.
International phone calls are expensive; in the past, Ye Weidong would have been reluctant to make such a call. Seeing his father's name on the screen, Ye Qiu assumed it was about the Imperial Cuisine Restaurant's branch.
"Dad, what's the matter?"
"There's trouble at the restaurant. When are you coming back?"
"What kind of trouble?"
On the phone, Ye Weidong explained everything in great detail. Ye Qiu hadn't expected to run into this kind of problem so soon.
Of course, he could call Li Qianqian directly and have her father resolve it with just one phone call. But Ye Qiu didn't want to owe Li Zhiguo another favor, especially since it wouldn't be appropriate for Li Zhiguo, the mayor, to get involved in such matters.
