When Mr. Li visited Jing City, he returned with a young girl by his side.
<...Chapter 197 A Bad Premonition
The place they were going to have dinner tonight was one they had been to before, the same private room called Guanlan. When they arrived, there were already people inside.
Hearing footsteps, Zhang Ran looked up. He was on the phone, and when he saw the two people coming in, he said to the person on the phone, "They're here, hang up first!"
As he spoke, he asked them to sit down and poured them tea. "It's been a long time since we last met. How have you been lately?"
"Same old as always." Li Yansheng leaned back, reached out to take the cigarette he handed him, put it on the table without lighting it.
Lin Shutang was still holding the kitten in his arms. He looked around but didn't see any staff.
Li Yansheng noticed her actions and said nothing.
About half an hour later, the waiter came to serve the food. Before leaving, he said, "Bring in a bigger paper box."
"Okay, Mr. Li."
The second time the staff came in, they brought the box.
Lin Shutang put the kitten in and stood up: "I'm going to wash my hands."
Li Yansheng took his hand away from her waist and looked at her: "Go!"
When he came back, Lin Shutang noticed that there was an extra woman in the box. She should have come with Zhang Ran, but she was not the one from last time.
This girl looks much more mature than the previous one.
When Lin Shutang looked over, the woman was also looking at her. She was clearly smiling, but for some reason, she felt uncomfortable.
She looked back politely, smiled in response, and said nothing more.
However, Zhang Ran still had no intention of introducing anyone to her, so it was probably the same, she couldn't be considered his real girlfriend.
Lin Shutang sat down next to Li Yansheng with a bowl of soup placed in front of him.
She tilted her head: "Thank you."
Zhang Ran, who was next to Li Yansheng, said, "I told you there was already soup, why did Yansheng add another one? It turns out my sister-in-law likes it."
Lin Shutang blushed as he listened to her teasing.
After more than forty minutes, the meal was almost finished, and the two men put down their chopsticks and talked about business.
Lin Shutang eats slowly, and he eats leisurely with his head down.
Li Yansheng would put food into her bowl from time to time.
During the break, Lin Shutang noticed that someone was looking at him, and it was not Li Yansheng.
She looked up and met the eyes of the woman opposite her.
The woman's eyes showed no emotion. When Lin Shutang looked over, she smiled, but it didn't show in her eyes.
Such a look made Lin Shutang feel uncomfortable. She ignored it and lowered her head to eat again.
Lin Shutang discovered that the kitten was missing about ten minutes later. When she was throwing meat into the box, she heard no sound. When she went to check, she saw only an empty box.
She stood up from the box and searched the room for a long time but couldn't find it. Then she walked to Li Yansheng's side and asked, "Is the bun missing?"
Little Mianbao is the name Lin Shutang gave to the kitten this morning.
When Li Yansheng heard that the cat was missing, he frowned and said, "Don't worry, it might have jumped out and hidden under the table."
Lin Shutang shook his head and said, "I've checked, he's not here."
Li Yansheng: "Don't worry."
He said soothing words and left his seat to walk out.
Lin Shutang followed him out and saw Li Yansheng already telling the staff to help find the cat. "My wife brought an orange cat with her when she came. It's a few months old. Please ask someone to help find it. I'll have someone settle the lost wages and other losses later."
Staff: "Mr. Li, you're welcome. I'll ask someone to help find it right away."
Zhang Ran followed out and saw that Lin Shutang was still anxious, so he said, "Sister-in-law, don't be too anxious. With so many people looking for her, she should be found soon."
Lin Shutang still clasped his hands together and nodded: "I hope so."
She didn't know if it was because she was too concerned, but she had a bad feeling in her heart.
