"Yes, Sir. $9,308. This is your receipt. You may check."
The waiter nodded and passed him the receipt.
Wang Dahai took the receipt with an embarrassed look. When they started to drink, the cover and a few drinks had cost just more than $2,000.
Even after a second round of drinks ordered, he calculated that it would only add up to not more than $4,000. How did it end up at $9,308?
But when he looked at the drinks that were ordered while they were away in the bathroom, Wang Dahai darkened his expression.
Five bottles of alcohol that cost more than $4,000. On top of that, those fruit and snack platters they ordered added up to the $9,308.
The price was clearly stated, and the pub was not at fault.
Wang Xian looked at the bill and darkened his expression. Wang Dahai did not have over $9,000 with him. His family was well-off, but not to the extent of getting more than $10,000 for his monthly allowances.
