Man Escapes Giant Restaurant Bill After Blind Date Brings 23 Relatives!
blind date: a date that between two people who have never met before
Imagine showing up for a date and finding not one but 24 people waiting! This happened to Mr. Liu in China, who was shocked to find his blind date, Ms. Zhang, at a restaurant with 23 of her relatives!
Their order was not small – lots of expensive drinks and cigarettes. The bill? A whopping 20,000 yuan (around $2,812)! What would you do in this situation? Liu decided it wasn’t his responsibility to pay and left.
Zhang paid the bill but later insisted that Liu should pay half. Liu agreed to pay only a small part, 4,000 yuan ($562). Not happy with this, Zhang’s family took Liu to court.
The court’s decision was a victory for Liu. He only had to pay for his and Zhang’s meals – a much smaller 1,400 yuan ($197).
