Zhao Qinglan is a big boss, so she naturally decides her own time.
Erwa went to the hotel early in the morning to inquire, and Zhao Qinglan then arranged to have dinner together that evening.
After finishing her business at the hotel, Erwa rushed off to work.
Even if he was late, no one would dare to say anything to him.
However, Erwa's stubbornness made him really see himself as just an ordinary employee, and he didn't feel that he was anything special.
Erwa waited until lunchtime before finally running out to call Yu Xiang.
Yu Xiang's shop doesn't have a telephone, so if Erwa needs to find her urgently, he can only call the shop next door.
However, people who don't have phones around will pay to use their phones at this place, and the owner is happy to let them use them.
Knowing that they would be having dinner together that evening, Yu Xiang told the nanny she had hired that she would close the shop early after returning home.
After all the lunchtime customers left, Yu Xiang left the cleaning lady to clean up and close the shop while she went home first.
When I got home, I washed my hair, changed my clothes, and tidied up.
Yu Xiang felt she had done very quickly. By the time she finished everything, it was time for Erwa to get off work.
I had already told Erwa that she would wait at home, and once she was ready, she didn't wander off.
Erwa hailed a taxi, picked up Yu Xiang, and they headed to the restaurant together.
When treating her son and future daughter-in-law to a meal, Zhao Qinglan was not stingy and specially booked a private room at a high-end restaurant.
When Erwa and Yu Xiang arrived, they gave their names and were led inside by the waiter.
When they went in, Zhao Qinglan was already there.
Upon seeing Zhao Qinglan, Yu Xiang couldn't help but feel nervous again.
"Hello, Auntie."
"Hello, please have a seat."
Erwa sat down opposite his mother with Yu Xiang, and Zhao Qinglan pushed the menu over.
"I haven't ordered yet, what do you guys want to eat?"
Erwa opened the menu and started discussing it with his girlfriend.
Yu Xiang already knew about Erwa's family background, so she was no longer hesitant to order food. Of course, she wouldn't deliberately order any very expensive dishes.
As a chef, she is very knowledgeable about food. This was her first time at this restaurant, and she was quite curious about the dishes on the menu.
Following her heart, she ordered what she liked to eat.
While she and Erwa were ordering food, Zhao Qinglan was also quietly observing.
Seeing Yu Xiang's poised and generous demeanor, Zhao Qinglan became more satisfied with her.
While waiting for the food, the three of them started chatting.
Zhao Qinglan has some experience in cooking, and since the company's main business is catering, she and Yu Xiang do have a lot in common.
So she knew this too.
My God, this is exactly what I've been thinking.
As they chatted, Erwa was eventually excluded.
Yu Xiang thought Zhao Qinglan was really cool, having accomplished many of the things she had dreamed of. The two felt like kindred spirits, and Zhao Qinglan became her idol.
Zhao Qinglan also thought that Yu Xiang was a very good girl. Although she had lost both her parents, she did not complain about fate and worked hard.
When the food was served, the two of them would sometimes get so engrossed in their conversation that they forgot to eat.
The more Erwa looked at it, the more jealous he became.
How come, on their first meeting, his girlfriend and mother acted like a real mother and daughter, while he felt like an outsider?
The meal took much longer than expected.
After they left the restaurant, Zhao Qinglan gave Yu Xiang her contact information.
"When I want to talk to my aunt, I can call her or write a letter."
"Auntie, I understand. It's so nice to know you."
"Auntie is very happy to meet you."
"Have you all forgotten about me?" Erwa said resentfully.
Zhao Qinglan and Yu Xiang exchanged a glance and burst into laughter.
Zhao Qinglan originally intended to have a car take Yu Xiang home, but seeing that her son wanted to spend time alone with his girlfriend, she took the car home by herself.
Although Erwa was a little jealous seeing his girlfriend and mother chatting happily, he was actually happy for them.
"I never expected you and my mom to get along so well," Erwa remarked.
Yu Xiang was surprised. "Auntie is amazing. Now I understand why she was able to build such a big company."
"My mom is really amazing. My brother, sister, and I have always admired her since we were little."
"What about your uncle?" Yu Xiang asked curiously.
"My dad? We usually don't see my dad when I'm around."
Hmm, for some reason I feel sorry for my uncle.
Li Huai, who was being missed, was leaning against the headboard reading a book when he sneezed and smiled. His wife must be missing him.
Sigh, I wonder when my wife will be back.
Erwa dropped his girlfriend off at home, gave her a quick hug and kiss, and then went home with a chuckle.
As soon as she entered the house, Yu Xiang happily spun around.
She was so nervous before, but her aunt's reaction was completely unexpected.
The second child is so nice, and the aunt is even nicer. Are the rest of the Li family members also easy to get along with?
She also began to seriously look forward to her and her second child's future.
Even though they had obtained Erwa's family's consent before they officially started dating, Yu Xiang still didn't dare to think too deeply about her and Erwa's future.
But now, she has much more confidence in their future.
Yu Xiang slept exceptionally well that night.
Erwa was excited for a while after returning home, but then quickly went to sleep, remembering that he had to go to work the next day.
Upon seeing Yu Xiang, Zhao Qinglan also had some ideas.
However, we'll have to wait and see how the relationship between Erwa and Yu Xiang develops before making any further decisions.
She really likes Yu Xiang, and it seems that Erwa and Yu Xiang have a good relationship right now. But who can predict matters of the heart? Only when Yu Xiang becomes part of their family can she express her thoughts.
