Lin Yu never expected that his wife would suggest going to Longsheng for dinner.
Although Li Xianren had taken the blame for blocking her on WeChat and threatened Zhang Ailan not to tell her daughter.
But who knows if the old witch will lose her composure and reveal the truth when she sees her wife?
Moreover, if his wife knew that this old witch was living a 24/7 life, she would definitely soften her heart, and then she wouldn't be able to sleep or eat properly. She would most likely try to find a way to redeem the old witch.
He hadn't had a few days of peace and quiet, and he certainly didn't want to go back to square one.
Seeing that Lin Yu didn't react, Lu Xueqing couldn't help but frown and ask, "Lin Yu, what are you thinking about? Drive!"
Su Yingxue continued, "You're talking about Longsheng, right? I just searched it on my phone, and it's quite popular, with a 5.0 rating on Dianping! It's peak time right now, so there might not be any tables available. Should I call and make a reservation first?"
After Su Yingxue finished speaking, she quickly dialed the contact number on Dianping.
"Hello, is this Longsheng Restaurant? Yes, there are four of us, and we'd like to reserve a table!"
"Huh? There are no tables? Oh, oh! Thank you!"
A moment later, Su Yingxue hung up the phone, looking helpless.
Lu Xueqing hurriedly asked, "Yingxue, what's wrong? There's no table? That can't be! I remember their house is quite big!"
Su Yingxue sighed, "The receptionist said that their restaurant has been booked out for the past few days because a company is holding an event, and they are no longer open to the public!"
"Oh, I see..." Lu Xueqing was slightly disappointed. She had been thinking of taking this opportunity to visit her mother, but it seemed she would have to wait until another time.
Lin Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Xueqing, you don't need to worry too much. Last time you called, Boss Li said he would take care of Mom, and Mom also talked to you on the phone. Everything is fine!"
Lu Xueqing nodded, temporarily putting the matter of visiting her mother out of her mind.
At this moment, Cao Zhiruo suddenly thought of something and suggested, "Oh right, I heard from a classmate in the group chat the other day that a new Western restaurant opened in the south of the city. It's a French restaurant and it's very authentic. Why don't we go and try it?"
Su Yingxue and Lu Xueqing exchanged a glance. They both nodded, indicating they had no objections.
Since the two women had no objections, Lin Yu was even less likely to have any. Let's go!
With a tap of the accelerator, the Audi took off instantly.
In less than half an hour, we arrived at a Western restaurant called 'Sutebu' in the south of the city.
After parking the car, Lin Yu led the three women into the restaurant.
"Cao Zhiruo?"
Just then, a female voice came from behind.
Lin Yu and the others stopped and looked back at the same time.
A well-dressed young couple walked towards them hand in hand.
The man appeared to be in his early thirties, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a sharply tailored suit. Despite his young age, he exuded an air of maturity. His hair was styled in a slicked-back manner, suggesting he was quite successful, likely working within the system.
The woman was dressed in designer clothes, looking flamboyant and fairly good-looking, but she was clearly not on the same level as Cao Zhiruo and the other two women.
At this moment, she walked towards Cao Zhiruo and said sarcastically, "It really is you, Cao Zhiruo. I didn't expect you to return to Guanzhong after graduation? Tsk tsk, you were a top student who got into a prestigious university in Yandu back then! What, couldn't make it in the big city?"
"Wang Yue, it's been years since we last met, and you still speak so rudely!" Cao Zhiruo's face was very unpleasant.
Wang Yue was her high school classmate, and the two used to be best friends.
But later, for some reason, Wang Yue suddenly changed her attitude towards her. She always went against her in class and even gathered a group of people to isolate her.
She still doesn't understand why the two of them, who used to have a good relationship, ended up like this.
However, that's all in the past. Now that she's matured, she doesn't hold grudges and still considers him a classmate.
She never expected that the other person would mock her the moment they met.
Wang Yue sneered. The reason she and Cao Zhiruo became enemies back then was because of a boyfriend she had in high school.
That boy was a total jerk; he would often secretly put snacks in Cao Zhiruo's bag behind her back. And one day, he even slipped her a love letter!
She was furious when she found out, tore up the love letter on the spot, and questioned it loudly!
As it turned out, that jerk said he had never liked her at all!
The reason I started dating her was actually to get closer to Cao Zhiruo!
Wang Yue was a very jealous girl to begin with, so she couldn't stand this kind of blow.
From then on, she and Cao Zhiruo became enemies, and she spread rumors to others that Cao Zhiruo had seduced her boyfriend.
Even today, she still feels resentful when she thinks about what happened back then.
At this moment, she deliberately pulled the man next to her over and said, "By the way, Zhiruo! Let me introduce you, this is my boyfriend, Liu Xinghui! Xinghui graduated from Yandu Foreign Affairs University. He works at the Guanzhong Foreign Affairs Office now, as a deputy section chief. Hehe, I'll tell you a secret, but don't tell anyone, he's about to be promoted to a full-fledged position, and as the assistant to the director, he'll be transferred to Yandu with him. Isn't that amazing?"
Cao Zhiruo was slightly taken aback. She glanced at the man, who looked to be only in his early thirties. He was already a section chief, and his future was even brighter after going to Yandu!
She sincerely said, "Congratulations on marrying such a good husband!"
Wang Yue looked smug and introduced her to her husband, "Honey, this is my classmate, Cao Zhiruo!"
