Chapter 837 Let’s Live Together
When we returned to the living room, the butler had already prepared exquisite afternoon tea.
On the coffee table sat a three-tiered silver dessert stand, filled with colorful macarons, scones, and chocolate mousse.
Next to it was a steaming cup of English black tea, served with a small cup of condensed milk and syrup.
"Mr. Xiao specifically instructed that we treat you all with the best." The butler poured tea for us with a smile.
Manager Zhang said attentively, "These dim sum were just delivered from the Peninsula Hotel. Everyone, please try them and see if you like them."
The macarons were too sweet for me, but Surina loved them.
Su Rina picked up a chocolate mousse decorated with gold foil, her eyes widening: "Is this real gold?"
Manager Zhang nodded proudly. "Yes, it is! 24K edible gold foil, the Peninsula's signature dessert."
"Then I have to take a picture." Su Rina took out her phone and took a lot of pictures of the snack stand. "I have to let my mother see that her daughter has become successful and can even eat gold!"
Qin Shi took a sip of black tea elegantly, looked around, and said with some envy, "This house is really great, Mengmeng, will you live here when you come to Hong Kong?"
"Well, but I don't think I can come here for long." I touched the armrest of the sofa. The Italian leather felt delicate and soft. It was such a pity. It would be great if a house like this was in City A.
However, there is no sea in City A, so no matter how nice the house is, you can't see such a sea view.
Huang Tianyi suddenly said something to Manager Zhang in Cantonese. Manager Zhang's eyes lit up and he immediately responded enthusiastically in Cantonese.
The two chatted back and forth for a while, and Manager Zhang said with surprise, "Ms. Huang speaks Cantonese so well!"
"She grew up in Guangzhou," I said with a smile. "Her Mandarin wasn't perfected until she started at University A. Originally, her Mandarin wasn't much better than yours."
"Who said that? I have a talent for languages. I can even speak Spanish." Huang Tianyi raised his chin proudly.
"Yes, you have finally learned to say your name in Spanish. It's not easy." I exposed her mercilessly.
She came over to hug me, laughing and saying in a high voice, "Mengmeng, let's live together from now on. I brought my savings here to live with you, and we'll spend the rest of our lives here. What's the difference between this early retirement life and a carefree life?"
"Stop dreaming, you two. If you dare to abduct my sister-in-law, Brother Qiu will tear Ayi apart." Ling Xiuzhi still understood Xiao Shiqiu.
Manager Zhang looked at his watch and said, "It's getting late. We should go to the city for dinner now. After dinner, we'll be heading to the airport soon."
When I left the villa, I couldn't help but look back a few more times. The housekeeper stood respectfully at the door, smiling and waving goodbye to me.
As the business car descended the mountain road, Manager Zhang enthusiastically introduced: "Tonight I'm taking you to eat Hong Kong's special duck and roast chicken. I guarantee you've never tasted anything so authentic! It's all made with fresh duck."
Su Rina blinked: "Duck... roasted with chicken? This way of eating is quite fresh.
In our area, duck is usually roasted and chicken is braised, but I've never tried stewing them together."
Huang Tianyi chuckled, "He must be talking about coconut roast chicken! Manager Zhang, you need to practice your Mandarin."
Everyone suddenly understood and burst into laughter.
Manager Zhang scratched his head a bit embarrassedly and said self-deprecatingly, "It's just that my Mandarin isn't very good. In your words, my Mandarin is plastic."
