Qin Manshu looked at the photos scattered on the ground, her gaze becoming distant. She picked up the photos from the ground, looked at Ye Zhiwei's information and thought for a long time before finally just stuffing the photos one by one into the file folder.

The file contained Ye Zhiwei's name.

Jiang Jianian took Ye Zhiwei to the nearby Tangxin Hotel for dinner. The manager of this chain hotel naturally recognized Jiang Jianian. Tangxin headquarters had a cooperation with Ye's Group, but this cooperation was only known to the upper management. This manager relied entirely on his business acumen. Upon seeing her, the manager, who was already off duty, immediately greeted her with a smile and personally received her.

The two arrived at the private room. Jiang Jianian ordered food, and Ye Zhiwei realized that she had sent a message incorrectly and re-edited it before sending it to Ye Yingying.

Jiang Jianian took the menu and asked Ye Zhiwei, "Is there anything you'd like to eat today?"

Ye Zhiwei was looking down at her phone and didn't hear Jiang Jianian's words.

Jiang Jianian narrowed his eyes and tapped Ye Zhiwei twice with his hand.

Ye Zhiwei immediately looked up at Jiang Jianian.

"What are you doing if you're so serious? Are you chatting with Ye Yingying?"

The current dating situation for women.

Ye Zhiwei said guiltily, "I sent the message to the wrong person just now. Let me reply to you first."

Jiang Jianian understood perfectly well that the implication was that Jiang Jianian should handle it as she saw fit. Jiang Jianian casually ordered a few dishes and handed the menu to the manager, who immediately took the menu to make arrangements. Jiang Jianian looked expressionlessly at Ye Zhiwei, who was engrossed in her own business.

Seemingly noticing her boyfriend's gaze, Ye Zhiwei took a moment from her phone to steal a glance at Jiang Jianian and cautiously asked, "Have you ordered?"

"Um."

Ye Zhiwei went over to Jiang Jianian, rubbed her face against him, and said coquettishly, "The dishes you ordered are definitely ones I like. My boyfriend knows me best."

Ye Zhiwei was coaxing Jiang Jianian while her eyes were still on her phone.

Ye Yingying messaged Ye Zhiwei to tell her that the school had issued an announcement that they would be on holiday around the afternoon. She wanted to ask Ye Zhiwei to go out and have fun in the afternoon so she could have a break. She had learned about some great spots for taking photos from her classmates at school, and she even sent Ye Zhiwei some photos that her classmates had taken. They were indeed very beautiful, and the weather had been great lately, sunny and bright, which would make for great photos.

Miss Ye, who was smitten, and Ye Yingying made a pact to go out in the afternoon, and now she was simply accompanying her boyfriend to have a meal.

Jiang Jianian glanced at Ye Zhiwei, who put away her phone. She began to subtly inquire about Jiang Jianian's work schedule after dinner, and to mention that she might be unable to spend the afternoon with him.

The dishes from Tangxin Hotel were served one after another.

Before the main course, Tangxin Hotel served a dessert.

Yeh Chih-wei immediately recognized this dessert as the strawberry molecular gastronomy dish that Chiang Chia-nien had previously created, which had an ice cream-like texture.

Ye Zhiwei asked Jiang Jianian in surprise, "Didn't you do this before?"

Jiang Jianian narrowed his eyes. He nodded and said, "Yes, that's why I had the cooperation with Tang Xin before."

Tang Xin was truly clever. To promote the dessert hotel, she would give some of the hotel's desserts to certain distinguished guests before the main course. These desserts were limited in quantity, each one was exquisitely plated, but the portion was very small. If a guest asked about them, Tang Xin would give them the dessert hotel's business card.

This kind of publicity was very effective, especially for some rich second-generation men who brought their female friends to dinner. The surprised and satisfied reactions of the girls after eating the desserts became Tangxin's best advertisement.

Previously, Tangxin Hotel promoted its high-tech desserts in a novel way, and this time, by giving them away, they directly brought a large number of regular customers to the dessert hotel.

Ye Zhiwei couldn't help but sigh that Tang Xin was now really trying hard to figure out how to fight back against Yu Jingchen after being tricked by Sweety-candy.

It turns out that Jiang Jianian started a close collaboration with Tang Xin by selling the production method.

Ye Zhiwei immediately grabbed a dessert and stuffed it into her mouth. Tang Xin must have made some adjustments to Jiang Jianian's method. It contained rich chocolate and even had a slightly bursting texture, making the flavor more complex. It was just as good as Jiang Jianian's. It can only be said that Tang Xin, being in the food industry, was quite professional in her improvements, giving the impression of adding the finishing touch.

Ye Zhiwei tentatively asked, "Do you want to eat?"

Jiang Jianian remained silent.

Ye Zhiwei immediately reached out and said, "If you're not going to eat it, I will. This is a little different from what you make, but it has a bit of your flavor. It's really delicious."

She said it was delicious, but didn't seem to intend to let her boyfriend try it. She put it directly into her mouth and said while eating, "There's chocolate sauce inside. I don't know what they added, but it seems to melt and burst when you put it in your mouth. How do they do that?"

Jiang Jianian rested his chin on his hand and slowly said, "This can also be done by adjusting some of the molecular structures inside..."

“I wouldn’t understand even if you told me.” Ye Zhiwei interrupted Jiang Jianian, as if she had thought of something and asked him, “This improvement wasn’t your idea, was it?”

Jiang Jianian did not deny it. He rested his chin on his hand and squinted, saying, "I only gave them a plan. I didn't expect them to actually make it. Now that you say that, I'd like to see what they've come up with."

Before Ye Zhiwei could figure out what Jiang Jianian meant, he had already pressed her down into her seat and kissed her. Because they were in a private room, the dishes hadn't all been served yet, and someone could come in at any moment. This man was incredibly bold. Ye Zhiwei nervously gripped Jiang Jianian's hand. Because of the kiss and the anxiety of being discovered at any moment, she was extremely tense. She could only subconsciously respond to whatever Jiang Jianian did. Jiang Jianian pressed on Ye Zhiwei's shoulders and ran his other hand through her hair to make her cooperate more in the kiss.

His kiss didn't last long. He bit Ye Zhiwei's lip hard before slowly releasing her. Ye Zhiwei's heart was still pounding, and she looked at Jiang Jianian with hazy eyes.

Their kiss had just ended when the door was opened.

Ye Zhiwei's tension from almost being discovered lingered, while Jiang Jianian remained calm throughout, as if nothing had happened, and even pointed out to the waiter where each dish was placed.

The waiter served several dishes before leaving again.

Jiang Jianian slowly used her thumb to wipe the moisture from her lips during the kiss, and after a few seconds she smiled and said, "They did a pretty good job, it was indeed quite sweet."

She simply ate his portion, yet this man not only didn't suffer any loss but also went even further, making up for all his losses from her.

Jiang Jianian's mood would improve after each intimate encounter. He glanced at Ye Zhiwei and smiled, "Let's eat."
