Manager Jiang looked at Bai Qianmo and smiled politely: "Miss Bai is a distinguished guest of my boss, so of course she deserves it. Mr. Bai, I am also working for the boss, and I really don't know the reason behind it. I'm sure Miss Bai knows."
Manager Jiang turned the conversation to Bai Qianmo out of sheer helplessness.
The boss only told us to treat Bai Qianmo and her family well, but didn't explain why. He couldn't just make up some wild guesses.
Bai Qianmo lowered her eyelids slightly, deep in thought. Who could possibly know that the Bai family was having a gathering here?
A person flashed quickly through her mind, and Bai Qianmo's slightly furrowed brows gradually relaxed.
Gu Jueye had just dropped her off when Mingyue Tower received a notification to change private rooms. This seemed too coincidental.
"Grandpa, I'm going out to make a phone call."
Bai Qianmo gave Bai Lao some instructions, picked up her phone and left the private room, then dialed Gu Jueye's number.
The call was answered quickly.
Bai Qianmo gripped her phone tightly, suppressing her suddenly racing heart.
Are you on your way home?
"Hmm, what's wrong?"
Gu Jueye glanced at the Mingyue Tower directly opposite.
Just then, the little girl suddenly called, probably to confront him.
Bai Qianmo was silent for a moment: "Just now, the owner of Mingyue Tower sent two bottles of century-old wine and changed the private room to Canghai Pavilion on the third floor. Mingyue Tower said that it was sent in my name."
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, and Bai Qianmo immediately understood.
I made this call just to confirm, but I had already expected it would be him.
Of all the people she knew, only Gu Jueye could command such respect from Mingyue Tower.
Gu Jueye pinched his throbbing temples.
He only asked for two bottles of wine, but he didn't expect Jiangnan Yan to make such a big fuss.
"The owner of Mingyuelou is a friend of mine, and I spoke to him in advance."
He knew about her situation in the Bai family, but he never asked her directly or reopened her wounds. All he could do for her was to lend a helping hand when she needed it.
That time, when the Bai family's servants stopped her from entering, he was filled with anger and wished he could immediately get out of the car, take her to the Bai family, and demand an explanation.
Go ask the Bai family how much mistreatment their beloved girl, whom they dote on so much, has suffered in their household.
But he understood that, given his current position, he had no reason to stand up for her.
"Has this been bothering you?"
Seeing that Bai Qianmo remained silent for a long time, Gu Jueye frowned slightly.
Bai Qianmo smiled.
"Not at all, I'm overjoyed. This is the first time I've been so proud in front of the Bai family. I feel incredibly honored. How can I possibly thank you enough?"
Hearing the girl's light and cheerful tone, Gu Jueye seemed to be infected as well, a gentle smile appearing in his eyes.
"Then think carefully about how to thank me."
Bai Qianmo's heart skipped a beat; she had only said it casually.
Is there anything you want?
"Judging from your tone, you want to give me a gift?" Gu Jueye chuckled.
"As long as it's something you want and it's within my capabilities, I will definitely try my best to satisfy you," Bai Qianmo said earnestly.
Gu Jueye leaned lazily against the back of the chair, holding his phone in his right hand, his deep eyes sparkling like a starry sea.
"I want you... to make me that braised beef."
His deep voice carried a captivating sexiness.
They deliberately split a passage into two parts, making people's hearts race with anxiety.
Bai Qianmo's cheeks flushed hot at rocket speed, turning crimson all over her face. Her heart felt as if it were being gently tickled by a feather, making her whole heart tremble with an itch.
"I'll make it for you another day. I have to go back to my private room now. You... drive carefully."
After saying that, he hurriedly hung up the phone.
Hearing Bai Qianmo's last words, which were full of concern, Gu Jueye's eyes were full of smiles.
Back to the private room
Bai Qianmo walked to Grandpa Bai's side.
"Grandpa, a friend of mine found out I was eating here. He happens to know the owner of Mingyuelou Restaurant, so he put in a good word for me beforehand."
Old Bai's brows remained tightly furrowed as he gave Bai Qianmo a deep look.
Although the young girl spoke lightly, the relationships involved were far from simple.
People in the capital all know that Mingyue Tower has a powerful backer, so people in the aristocratic circle like to come here to discuss business.
Firstly, it makes them feel very proud.
Secondly, I also hope to make more helpful friends here.
How could a young girl like Qianmo have a friend who knows the owner of Mingyue Tower?
They had only exchanged a greeting when the owner of Mingyuelou sent over two bottles of century-old wine and moved them to the most expensive private room in the restaurant.
Old Master Bai sighed inwardly, realizing that the friend Qianmo mentioned was no ordinary person.
While the old man was making his own calculations, the other members of the Bai family naturally thought of the same things.
Han Songyan glared at Bai Qianmo expressionlessly, a hint of shock flashing in her eyes.
How long has Bai Qianmo been in the capital? How did she manage to build all these connections?
What does a young girl have to offer in exchange for the respect of these powerful men, besides her face and body?
Thinking of this, Han Songyan's face immediately darkened.
If the old man hadn't been there, she would have definitely interrogated this brat on the spot about who her friend was.
Seeing that Bai Qianmo had explained everything, Manager Jiang smiled and said, "Please enjoy your meal. I won't disturb you any longer."
"Kang Yan, see Manager Jiang out," Old Bai instructed.
