When Su Tiantian was about to leave the business department, she met He Xinyu, who was really handsome, so he was very popular among the female employees in the business department.

He Xinyu greeted Su Tiantian warmly: "Director Su, good afternoon. Didn't you take a day off today?"

Su Tiantian felt as if everyone in the company knew that she had taken leave today. In fact, the managers of all departments did know that she had taken leave.

Su Tiantian smiled generously: "Manager He, good afternoon. I did ask for leave today, but I have something to do, so I'll go back to the company."

He Xinyu looked at his expensive watch and said, "It's almost time to get off work. Let me treat you to a meal."

At this time, Su Tiantian was standing in the large office of the business department. In addition to the people who were out on business, there were at least twenty or thirty employees from the business department. As soon as He Xinyu said this, there was a small discussion. Although it was unclear what was being said, it was obvious that they were talking about this matter.

Su Tiantian said, "Thank you, Manager He. I'm sorry, I've been a bit busy these days. Maybe next time. I'll treat Manager He to a meal next time."

Facing Su Tiantian's rejection, He Xinyu didn't get angry. He just smiled softly. His smile was so gentle and elegant (no wonder so many women in the company were attracted to him). However, Su Tiantian thought his smile was meaningful. He said, "Okay, I believe we will meet at the dinner table soon."

Su Tiantian actually didn't lie. She was really busy recently. The Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, and she had to give gifts and attend social events. Her younger brother was getting married soon, and she needed help with some things. She was tired easily because of her pregnancy, but she had to go to work, and she also wanted to spend more time with her brother Jing. She felt that even if there were 36 hours in a day, it would not be enough.

Of course, there was another reason. Su Tiantian really didn't want to have dinner with He Xinyu. They had no official business dealings, but she was on He Yiyuan's side, so that was out in the open. As for personal matters? Then he could ask Liu Jingze to come. So she confidently rejected He Xinyu's invitation.

He Xinyu actually didn't lie. He and Su Tiantian really met at the dinner table very soon.

How fast? He asked Su Tiantian out at the company around 5 p.m., but Su Tiantian refused in front of everyone. Then, around 7 p.m., Su Tiantian actually met him at the dinner table at Siqi Farm.

Liu Jingze knew who was going to see him before the waiter told him that someone in the VIP room wanted to see him. If someone considered him a friend, or wanted to befriend him, he would naturally tip them off, even if the person organizing the dinner asked him to keep it a secret.

Two waitresses in work clothes standing at the door of the VIP box saw Liu Jingze and greeted him gently: "Mr. Liu, good evening."

Liu Jingze had a peaceful smile on his face: "Good evening, please tell the guests in the box that I'm here."

One of the waitresses knocked on the door of the private room. After knocking three times, a male voice came from the room: "Come in."

The waitress pushed open the door, walked into the box, took two steps forward, stood still, and said with a smile: "Hello, distinguished guest, Mr. Xiao Liu from our farm has arrived."

At this time, a man about 30 years old, wearing a colorful short-sleeved shirt with tropical fruit patterns, said, "Hurry up and ask Mr. Liu to come in."

This is the pastoral-style VIP box of Siqi Farm. Walking in, you feel like you are in a peaceful rural world.

On the walls of the box are hung pastoral paintings depicting golden wheat waves and emerald green rice fields. The golden wheat waves sway gently in the breeze, and the emerald green rice fields are like flowing jade, making people feel the vitality and tranquility of nature.

The wooden tables and chairs look simple and warm, and the table is covered with a light blue tablecloth printed with small floral patterns, giving people a fresh and pleasant feeling.

The chandelier is made of woven rattan, casting a soft and warm light. In the corner is an old wooden bookshelf filled with various books about rural life and vintage ornaments.

There are several pots of gorgeous flowers placed by the window, emitting bursts of charming fragrance.

Through the window, you can see the pastoral-style small courtyard. There are several kinds of flowers planted in the yard, red roses, yellow roses, pink lilies, white lilies, purple irises, and yellow sunflowers. They are so colorful and blooming brilliantly.

Two tables of people sat here, the atmosphere was lively and harmonious.

Liu Jingze, dressed in a simple white long-sleeved shirt and dark blue casual trousers, walked calmly into the box. Seeing him, several men immediately stood up to greet him, their faces filled with polite and enthusiastic smiles.

"Oh, Jingze, you are finally here. Come and sit down, come and sit here!" Tan Leqian, a man wearing a colorful short-sleeved shirt with tropical fruit patterns, said as he pulled out the chair next to him.

Liu Jingze knew the people who stood up to greet him, but he didn't recognize some of the people at the two tables.

Liu Jingze sat down on the chair next to Tan Leqian, a warm smile on his face. "You guys, out of so many other places to go, deliberately came to our farm for dinner. I'm really flattered."

The table was filled with a wide variety of Cantonese dishes.

The first thing that catches your eye is the white-cut chicken with yellow skin and white meat, followed by the tender and juicy barbecued pork, the soft and tasty steamed spare ribs with black bean sauce, the green stir-fried seasonal vegetables, the delicious blanched prawns, the tasty braised sea cucumber and shiitake mushrooms, the tender and crispy braised pigeon, the delicious pork knuckles with sand ginger, the green stir-fried seasonal vegetables, and so on.

Tan Leqian smiled and said, "Good Jingze, you said I deliberately went to your farm to eat, but I knew you were very busy recently, so I had to go to your workplace to ask you out. Come, have some tea."

Tan Leqian personally poured tea for Liu Jingze and was very kind.

Huang Jiekang, wearing a blue polo shirt and khaki trousers, was all smiles. "I'm not as fussy as Mr. Qian. I'm definitely here for the farm food. This boiled chicken has golden skin and white meat, and it's so tender and delicious!"

Huang Jiekang picked up a piece of boiled chicken and praised it highly.

A man with bright, lively eyes and a friendly demeanor said, "The food here is really good. The chicken is tender and juicy, with smooth, chewy skin. Paired with the scallion, ginger, and garlic dipping sauce, it's a truly delicious dish. The barbecued pork is bright red, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. When you bite into it, you first feel the crispy skin, followed by the tender and juicy interior. The balance of sweet and salty is just right."

Tan Leqian pointed at the man who had just carefully commented on the taste of the dishes and said, "Jingze, let me introduce you to a distinguished guest. This is He Xinyu, the young master of Chengjia Company in Province C. Chengjia Company is a well-known large company."

The man who had just carefully commented on the taste of the dishes was He Xinyu. Liu Jingze knew that he had long been aware of his presence, but he didn't show it on his face. He smiled faintly, nodded slightly in thanks, and then said, "Thank you all for your support of our Siqi Farm."

He Xinyu wore a slim-fitting grey linen long-sleeved top with a slightly open collar, revealing a casual demeanor. He also wore black casual trousers. He spoke in a cheerful and friendly voice, "Mr. Qian, there's no need for you to introduce us. Junior Jingze and I have known each other for many years."

"Junior?" someone present asked in surprise.
