王老师:
根据《21世纪大英汉词典》,if you please有很多意思:
劳驾;请
如果不愿意的话;如果你接受(我允许)的话
[口语]居然,竟然
(表示客气,礼貌)请;对不起;劳驾
(表示强调或要求注意)请听我说;对不起
(表示惊奇、气愤或难以置信)你看多奇怪,你看怪不怪;竟然;你再也料不到【这个意思就是你例句中的意思】
(表示if it please you的意思)如不见怪,如果你许可的话
The missing letter was in his pocket, if you please!
你看怪不怪, 丢失的那封信就在他的口袋里。
黎老师:
if you please 主要有下面两种用法:
1)表示客气、礼貌,意思是“烦请”、“对不起”、“如果愿意(或允许)”、“如不见怪”。例如:I'll have another cup of tea, if you please. 对不起,请再来一杯茶。/ If you please, Mr. Lorware, a word with you. 洛汪先生,如果你愿意,我想和你谈一谈。
2) 表示惊异或愤怒,意思是“你看怪不怪”、“竟然”。例如:He's broken my bicycle, and now, if you please, he wants me to get it mended so that he can use it again. 你看怪不怪,他把我的自行车骑坏了,而现在竟然叫我去修,好让他再骑。/ Now, if you please, he expects me to pay for it. 你瞧,他倒要我掏腰包。

2老师:
If you please 是一种正式的,而过时的表达。用来表达惊或恼火。
根据剑桥国际英语词典里的释义:dated if you please used to express surprise and annoyance.
例:They are demanding £200,if you pease,just to replace a couple of broken windows!
他们开价两百英镑来装几块打碎的玻璃窗,真见鬼!
