Chapter 530: Xie Jiu takes her with him and acts alone (Part 2 or 3)
"Is this... the end?" Lao Bai was still a little confused, his eyes full of disbelief.
"Silly, you still want to continue?"
"No, no, no..." Lao Bai quickly shook his head. He was almost exhausted this month and wanted to finish it quickly in his dreams.
Xie Dingyuan smiled, his joy evident in his expression: "Thank you all for your hard work during this period. Tonight at Minghui Hall, I'll treat you."
At night, Huayu Road, which is separated from Chunfeng Street by a wall, is brightly lit and neon-lit.
Including Jiang Fuyue and Xie Dingyuan, there were six people in total, and Lao Zhang sent them all there in one car.
As soon as Lao Baifu went down, he looked around with a curious look as if he had discovered a new world.
Lao Jin coughed lightly and reminded: "Pay attention to your image. Don't look like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden."
Lao Bai disagreed: "I'm not even as good as Granny Liu. At least she's been to the Grand View Garden. What about me?"
"That's right, no one has ever been in here!"
Led by the waiter, the group walked inside, went upstairs, and entered the private room.
Lao Bai nudged Ding Yu with his elbow and said, "I heard that every private room here is connected to a viewing platform. Different rooms have different orientations and perspectives, and the views are also different. Is that true?"
"You're asking me? I've never been here before..."
Lao Bai looked disappointed.
Lao Jin interrupted, "Why are you in such a hurry? We'll know after we go in and take a look."
As he spoke, the waiter opened the door of the private room and stepped aside to invite a few people in.
Lao Bai immediately rushed over to verify: "Holy crap... there really is an observation deck?!"
Upon hearing this, Lao Jin and Ding Yu immediately came forward and said, "Oh my god, this view is amazing!"
"Lao Liu! Come over and take a look—quickly! Don't dawdle!"
Liu Guan put his hands in his pockets and walked forward, looking a little nonchalant, but was ultimately shocked by the scenery before him.
Everyone was very satisfied with the meal.
Only Xie Dingyuan noticed that Jiang Fuyue didn't move his chopsticks much and drank water quite frequently.
This is not like her usual style of enjoying everything she eats.
Afterwards, Lao Jin and his friends took a taxi back to the apartment.
Lao Zhang parked the car in the square. He originally planned to send Xie Dingyuan back to the villa after they dispersed, but he called and asked for leave halfway, saying that he had to go back first because of an emergency at home.
Xie Dingyuan asked him to leave the car behind and he would drive it himself after he finished eating.
Lao Zhang apologized repeatedly and felt very uneasy.
"The old man is old, and hospitalization is not a trivial matter. You go and deal with it first. If you encounter any difficulties, you can call me."
The phone was a bit loud at the time, and Jiang Fuyue was sitting next to it, so she could hear it clearly.
It turns out that Xie Dingyuan can also comfort people.
I thought he was born an icy person.
The car slowly stopped in front of him. Jiang Fuyue opened the passenger door and got in.
Suddenly, "Is today's food not to your liking?"
Jiang Fuyue was stunned, her eyes flickering slightly: "...Is it that obvious?"
Xie Dingyuan couldn't help laughing: "You barely moved your chopsticks, but you drank a lot of water."
Jiang Fuyue touched her nose and said, "It tastes a bit salty to me, but you guys don't seem to mind?"
So, she wondered if there was something wrong with her sense of taste.
Xie Dingyuan was speechless.
"I'm sorry, I wasn't thoughtful enough."
Minghuitang specializes in northern cuisine, which is mostly salty, and Jiang Fuyue, a southerner, may not be able to get used to it.
As for Lao Bai and the others, they had lived in the north for a long time before coming to Linhuai, and usually had a heavier taste, so they could naturally accept it.
Jiang Fuyue, whether before or after her rebirth, doesn't like food that is too salty.
Seeing that everyone was enjoying the meal, she naturally wouldn't say anything to spoil the fun. If you're not used to the food, just eat less.
But I didn't expect Xie Dingyuan to have such sharp eyes that he could see through it at a glance.
Tsk…
“Are all scientists so meticulous?”
Xie Dingyuan glanced at her and said, "You can ask yourself this question."
Jiang Fuyue curled her lips and said slowly, "I'm not a scientist."
"You will be."
"Who can say for sure in the future? What if it's not true?"
"You also said just in case, the probability is very small."
Jiang Fuyue: “…”
"Get off the car." He said this suddenly.
"What?"
"Get out of the car," the man said, having already turned off the engine and unbuckled his seatbelt. "Aren't you hungry?"
…
A quarter of an hour later, at Chunfeng Street Commercial Plaza.
Compared to the high-end and exquisite Huayu Road, this place, separated by a wall, is obviously more down-to-earth.
As the night deepened, neon lights shone brightly. Elderly people who had finished their dinner went out for a walk, young couples brought their children, and the crowd was bustling.
Some small vendors were also out and about, some selling toys, some selling food, and their calls were heard constantly.
Jiang Fuyue stopped in front of a small stall and looked at the strings of bright red candied haws. She felt a sour taste in her mouth and swallowed subconsciously.
Xie Dingyuan observed her expression calmly, "Want to eat?"
Jiang Fuyue turned her head, her clear black eyes like the night sky after it had been washed by water, crystal clear, and at this moment, they were gleaming with hope. "Hmm."
Want to eat.
that is……
The line is a bit long.
She wanted to queue, but she thought Xie Dingyuan might get impatient. Why not let him find a place to sit by himself? Or he could leave if he wanted.
Just as he was about to speak, the man suddenly said, "Have you seen the Liuxianju across the street?"
Jiang Fuyue nodded, not knowing what he wanted to do.
Xie Dingyuan: "We'll go there to eat later. You go ahead and get a private room and sit and wait. I'll wait in line here."
He arranged everything, ignoring Jiang Fuyue's slightly surprised look, and urged her with red ears: "Hurry up, otherwise there will be no seat soon."
Just like that, Jiang Fuyue stepped into Liuxianju in a daze.
As soon as I walked in, a warm feeling hit me.
The waiter immediately came forward with a smile: "Welcome."
The tall woman was wearing a black uniform with the word "Welcome" written on the label on her chest. The collar design was unique, with a V-neck that was half covered and half exposed. She had a slender waist, spoke softly, had exquisite makeup, and a charming smile.
Jiang Fuyue first looked around calmly, then retracted his gaze and nodded secretly.
The lobby is exquisitely decorated, with an elegant environment and a style that blends Chinese and Western styles.
Looking at the guests, most of them are dressed in suits and have decent manners, and are of high class.
What’s more important is that the aroma of food can stimulate appetite.
Looks like I can have a good meal now.
"Are there any private rooms?" she asked.
The waiter smiled politely, "Excuse me, do you have an appointment?"
Jiang Fuyue shook her head. She and Xie Dingyuan had made a last-minute decision to come here, and had chosen this place randomly, but...
"I see your private rooms are not full, I'd like to request a private room."
There is an electronic screen at the entrance that shows the occupancy rate, and the private rooms are listed separately, showing that only 46% are occupied, which means that nearly half of the private rooms should be empty.
Unexpectedly, the waiter looked at Jiang Fuyue strangely. He once again looked her over from head to toe, confirming that she was not just any distinguished guest who could use a private room. Then, he smiled and explained, "Miss, you may not be aware of the rules of Liuxianju. When we first opened our hotel, we auctioned off the use of our private rooms. This means that every private room upstairs has an owner, and we cannot let anyone use it without the owner's permission. I'm truly sorry."
Jiang Fuyue frowned slightly, thinking that the restaurant business model that clearly divided customers into different levels was a bit ridiculous.
It is understandable that the auction house does this, after all, status is measured by bidding ability, and the price of auctions can easily reach tens of millions or even hundreds of millions.
But a meal is something most people can afford.
This store is quite strange. They seem to be quite proud of this rule. It is not difficult to hear the elements of showing off in the words of the waitress, as if she herself has become a little more noble.
Jiang Fuyue couldn't understand it, but this was a rule set by others. If she was not satisfied, she could choose to go somewhere else. There was no need to protest.
I've already quietly planned to move.
"If you are acceptable, the dining environment in the hall is also good." The waiter smiled and it was obvious that he had received professional training.
Jiang Fuyue waved her hand, "No need."
After saying that, he turned and left.
The waitress's smile froze. Some people had wanted a private room before, but after her explanation and hints, they knew that those who could enjoy the private room alone must be of extraordinary status, so they gave up in disappointment. Most people came for the delicious food at Liuxianju, so in the end they almost all chose to dine in the hall.
However, this young lady in front of me is a little... too stubborn!
You know, Liuxianju's delicious food is hard to come by. If you don't make a reservation in advance during the weekend, you might not even get a table even if you wait all day. It just so happened that there were only two seats left in the hall today, and this person just turned his back and walked away?!
Yesterday’s second and third updates were three thousand words.
The first update is at 12:30~
