Xu Qian decided to have the dinner at the Tianyuanju Restaurant across the street. Tianyuanju was a well-known restaurant in the capital, and reservations had to be made a week in advance to secure a table. Fortunately, Xu Qian had a personal connection with the owner of Tianyuanju, so with a simple phone call, he secured a VIP room.
By the time everyone arrived, it was almost seven o'clock.
As soon as the guests arrived, the waiters brought in plates of exquisitely shaped and fragrant dishes. Since it was not the first time for everyone to come to this restaurant, Xu Qian did not give them a detailed introduction to the dishes.
Everyone knew very well what Han Zhan and Xu Qian were planning for this meal.
At the dinner table, Han Zhan asked Xu Qian, "Can I drink?"
Xu Qian replied cautiously, "I can drink, but I have a patient who just had surgery yesterday and is still in critical condition in the ICU. For the patient's safety, I can't drink tonight. Mr. Han, please forgive my disrespect."
When Han Zhan heard his explanation, he wasn't angry at all. Instead, he looked at him with praise. "As a surgeon, it's good that you have this awareness."
Being praised, Xu Qian remained calm.
He stood up, picked up the porcelain teapot with both hands, and poured a cup of tea for Han Zhan, Song Ci and Shen Yubei respectively.
The tea leaves in the cup unfurled their curled buds; they were a variety Shen Yubei didn't recognize. Shen Yubei asked Xu Qian, "Forgive my limited knowledge, but this tea has a clear, fragrant aroma, but it's a variety I've never seen before. Master Xu, what is this tea called?"
Xu Qian told everyone: "This tea is a specialty of our Kunlun Mountains. We call it Spring Rain Tea. This Spring Rain Tea, as the name suggests, is made from the first batch of tender buds picked after the spring rain, which are then fried and dried."
At this point, Xu Qian lowered his eyes and said to Shen Yubei, who was sitting to the right of Song Ci, "Teacher Shen, I heard from Junjun that Teacher Shen has been troubled by insomnia in recent years. This Spring Rain Tea has the effect of calming the mind and helping you sleep, which is better than all sleeping pills. I have prepared a box of tea for Teacher Shen. Teacher Shen may want to take it home and try it. If it works, ask Junjun to tell me after you finish drinking it, and I will ask my family to send some more to Teacher Shen."
In recent years, Shen Yubei has suffered from insomnia and poor rest, and his hair loss has become more serious.
Although Shen Yubei had never dealt with the Kunlun Xu family, he had heard people talk about the magical properties of the Kunlun Xu family. Xu Qian was the young master of the Kunlun Xu family, and since he said that this tea had a calming effect and helped with sleep, it must be true.
Shen Yubei's smile became more genuine, and he picked up the teacup and took a sip.
This tea not only has a refreshing aroma, but also tastes superb. When you drink it, the fragrance lingers on your lips and teeth, leaving an endless aftertaste.
It’s good tea.
Shen Yubei put down the teacup and sighed, "Master Xu is thoughtful. I will accept this tea." After that, Shen Yubei cast a helpless look at Han Zhan.
On the way to the hotel, Han Zhan told Shen Yubei that he hoped Shen Yubei could stand on the same front with him and suppress Xu Qian in terms of momentum, so that Xu Qian would be humiliated.
But people are not willing to give up after receiving favors from others. Shen Yubei had just received benefits from Xu Qian. Even if he was thick-skinned, he could not continue to seek benefits from Han Zhan and make things difficult for Xu Qian.
What's more, Shen Yubei is also a thin-skinned artist.
Han Zhan hadn't expected Xu Qian to win over Shen Yubei with just one move. But when he thought about Xu Qian being the young master of the Xu family, and that he could win people over with just a few words, he suddenly felt it was a difficult task.
The guy who covets Han Jun has a powerful background and comes with great force, making him difficult to resist.
Han Zhan didn't really want to sever the marriage between Han Jun and Xu Qian, but his precious daughter, who wasn't even an adult yet, was already being coveted by another man's pig. Han Zhan felt uncomfortable and angry just thinking about it.
Han Zhan was sulking and couldn't eat.
Xu Qian also knew that Han Zhan would not be able to accept him for a while, so he was not in a hurry. At the table, he carefully took care of Han Jun, and did not forget to coax Song Ci and Han Miao into a happy mood.
He thought to himself, once I successfully bribe the three women of the Han family, then the remaining two men will not be a threat.
When Han Zhan saw Xu Qian trying to please Song Ci with nice words, he knew what this kid was up to.
He despised Xu Qian's smooth talk, but also admired his ability. At least when he was Xu Qian's age, he didn't have his courage.
After the meal, Song Ci's address to Xu Qian had successfully changed from 'Young Master Xu' to 'Little Qian'. Xu Qian's address to Song Ci also changed from the extremely reserved and polite 'Madam Han' at the beginning to 'Aunt Song'.
Even though Xu Qian had swapped shifts with his colleagues, he still had to go to the hospital to stay with her. After dinner, Xu Qian didn't send Han Jun back to the hotel. The restaurant was just across the street from the hotel. After watching Han Jun safely cross the road, Xu Qian drove away.
Song Ci and others stood at the hotel gate. After watching Xu Qian's car drive away, she pulled Han Miao into the hotel lobby.
Just as Han Jun was about to follow, Han Zhan grabbed his arm.
Han Zhan stopped and looked up at him guiltily. "...Dad."
Han Zhan snorted coldly, "You still remember that I'm your father!" Han Zhan stared at Han Jun with a look of disappointment and said unhappily, "What kind of magic potion did he give you? It's only been a few days, and you've already turned your elbow to his side?"
Han Jun's expression was as cold as ever. She was neither humble nor arrogant, and she told Han Zhan frankly, "Dad, I like him."
Over the years, Han Jun had been constantly asking about Xu Qian. She knew that Xu Qian didn't start school until he was 10, that he was admitted to Imperial Capital University at 16, and that he became the youngest deputy chief physician in cardiac surgery in the history of Imperial Capital University Hospital.
