Chapter 76 Meeting an acquaintance
Although the goal has been achieved, we can't push it too hard.
So, Wen Nianchu tried hard to suppress the corners of his mouth, pretending to be very reasonable and nodded:
"Okay. Then try to be quick."
She stood there, watching Xie Yue, carrying his schoolbag, turn around and walk back to the slightly old gate of the orphanage in a hurry but with steady steps, until his back disappeared behind the door.
Wen Nianchu muttered to himself.
Why do you carry your backpack so neatly?
When she was in school, she only memorized one side.
At this time, Wen Nianchu's cell phone rang.
It’s Zhao Xinrui.
"Hello? Sister Xinrui?"
"Come to the Crown Hotel for dinner. It's my treat today. I've booked a private room. Where are you?"
Zhao Xinrui asked on the phone.
Wen Nianchu was stunned for a moment.
The revolving restaurant on the top floor of the Rongcheng Crown Five-Star Hotel has a great view and great prices. It is a place she used to go often, but since... she hasn't been there for a long time.
"Okay, I'll be right there."
By the time she arrived at the reserved private room, the other three had already arrived.
Wu Sui was slumped in a chair, rubbing his temples, looking hopeless.
"My phone is almost like a hotline now. My ears are almost callused from answering so many calls."
Fatty Gu next to him sneered and threw a peanut into his mouth:
"Tsk, you talk like everyone is the same. My phone battery didn't even last half a day."
Zhao Xinrui was leisurely flipping through the menu. Upon hearing this, she raised her head and teased her teammates:
"What? Your phone's been ringing off the hook? Our Blade Girl has become so popular that you've become popular too?"
When Wu Sui saw Gu Xiaopang eating peanuts, he started eating them too. He wanted to try what the peanuts from a five-star hotel tasted like.
There was no food on the table and everyone was forced to chat.
Gu Xiaopang noticed that Wen Nianchu seemed to be in a good mood and asked:
"Hey, speaking of this, has Irelia decided which professional team to join?"
Wen Nianchu shook his head.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to leave, it’s mainly because she may not be able to stay here for too long.
Otherwise, she would really be a little moved.
The door was suddenly kicked open, and then several staff members came in.
"Excuse me, please leave."
"Why do we have to leave?"
Zhao Xinrui opened her eyes wide and said with some dissatisfaction, "We clearly made a reservation in advance."
"It's like this, miss. There was an error with our backstage staff. Someone has already reserved the entire place for today."
Wen Nianchu frowned.
They were standing in the corridor, and it happened that a staff member led people in another direction. It was obviously the backs of Qin Ye, Bai Yi Qiu and others.
She thought about it and put on the black mask again.
The staff member looked at their obviously unhappy expressions and continued to offer solutions, maintaining the thoughtful tone expected of a five-star hotel:
"Again, we apologize for our mistake. To compensate you, we're willing to pay double the amount of your reservation as compensation. Alternatively, we can give you a free meal voucher of the same amount. Is that okay with you?"
As the top hotel in Rongcheng, even when it was kicking customers out, its superficial efforts were impeccable, and its attitude was so good that it was hard to get angry.
So, after friendly negotiations, several people chose to get equal free meal coupons for the next time.
Qin Ye didn't have any thoughts at first, but he suddenly turned his head when he turned the corner, saw a few people, and stopped.
Is it them?
I lost a game yesterday and it’s still fresh in my mind.
The contestant named Shui Xindao made him lose face in public, and even forced him to use a lot of connections to prevent the live video from being spread.
"What's wrong?" Bai Yi Qiu, who was following next to him, noticed his pause and put down the phone next to his ear.
He and Qin Ye maintained a superficial relationship, more out of consideration for the Qin family's power, and Qin Ye was also aware of the background behind his Bai family that was not convenient to make public, and they understood each other tacitly.
Bai Yi Qiu just hung up a phone call.
Qin Ye retracted his gaze:
"You called Wen Wan?"
"Yes," Bai Yiqiu answered as a matter of course, with a barely perceptible hint of flattery in his tone, "Wanwan hasn't been to places like this very often. Besides, it's her birthday tomorrow, so I'll take this opportunity to find out what she likes."
It’s Wen Wan’s birthday, so doesn’t that mean it’s Wen Nianchu’s birthday too?
Qin Ye suddenly remembered.
Their birthdays are only one day apart.
"Are you thinking about your cheap fiancée?"
Bai Yi Qiu spoke jokingly, not hiding his disdain for Wen Nianchu.
The Wen family just wanted to sell their daughter to the Qin family. In Bai Yiqiu's eyes, Wen Nianchu was just a commodity for trade.
Qin Ye did not answer.
Seeing this, Bai Yiqiu raised his eyebrows and sneered:
"Qin Ye, you are so pitiful. The Wen family finally managed to sell their daughter to you. They will definitely not miss this opportunity for marriage."
"But don't say you didn't see it, Wen Wan's mind is all on you right now." He paused, and speculated with a hint of playfulness, "Are you trying to use Wen Nianchu to provoke Wen Wan and make her jealous?"
At this moment, Bai Yi Qiu's feelings for Wen Wan were not very deep, and Wen Wan's feelings for Qin Ye were too obvious.
He was just there to watch the fun.
Qin Ye: "I don't like any of them."
Wen Wan is just a sister to him.
As for Wen Nianchu, heh...
Bai Yiqiu was quite surprised by Qin Ye's answer. He suddenly looked back and saw a huge crowd of people. Then, Bai Yiqiu strode towards them:
"Didn't I say I'd book the whole place?"
"Why is there still someone here?"
The staff member smiled sheepishly and bowed repeatedly, "We're extremely sorry. This was indeed a major oversight in our backstage work. We recorded your private time incorrectly during registration."
Wen Nianchu was glad that he had put on a mask just now.
She lowered her eyes and left with Zhao Xinrui and the others.
At the moment when several people turned to leave, Qin Ye suddenly spoke:
"You can go, Shui Xindao stay."
Wen Nianchu's footsteps paused for a moment, and then he continued to follow Zhao Xinrui and the others out as if he didn't hear anything.
"I'm calling you guys?"
"Don't you understand?"
Seeing that the group of people opposite him ignored him, Bai Yi Qiu became very impatient.
Although he didn't know who Shui Xindao was?
But no matter what, in Bai Yiqiu's territory, if someone dares to ignore Qin Ye's face, isn't that also ignoring Bai Yiqiu's face?
Zhao Xinrui pulled Wen Nianchu behind her like a protective child, turned her head, and her anger rose because of Bai Yiqiu's words:
"Stay? Why should I stay?"
"If the restaurant made a mistake, go find the restaurant. It's not your turn to embarrass us, the guests who came to dine here."
Gu Xiaopang and Wu Sui also stopped and stood in front of the two girls with unfriendly expressions.
Although no one spoke, their attitude was very clear.
If the other party dares to take action, they will also dare to fight.
