Louis's smile returned: "Want to try some? I ordered all of this restaurant's specialties!"
I heard this restaurant just opened recently. I ate here once with my father, and the food was pretty good. I'd like to invite you to try it!
Wen Sihe's hand was under the table, gently hooking Lu Zhiye's pants. Lu Zhiye grabbed her small hand with his large hand, signaling her to behave.
The couple's subtle actions did not escape Louis's keen eye. After all, he had been in the dating scene for many years and could still detect the little things that couples did!
In that instant, Louis realized he had made a fool of himself!
So, I treated them to dinner, only to see them flaunt their love?
Little did he know, Wen Sihe simply found it amusing; this restaurant was owned by Lu Zhiye.
The head chef there was someone he specially went to out of town to hire!
Doesn't he know what the restaurant's signature dishes are?
After eating and drinking his fill, Louis drank two glasses of Wuliangye liquor, his cheeks slightly flushed. He lay lazily in his chair, a move that would seem rather nonchalant to an ordinary person, but for someone of his noble birth, even a casual sitting posture exuded a unique charm!
No wonder so many young girls are smitten with Louis!
Louis took a small sip of water: "Looks like you two have something to say to me?"
Wen Sihe composed herself and turned to look at Lu Zhiye beside her.
Lu Zhiye also took a teacup and casually sat down in the chair.
This is no ordinary private room; it has both a dining area and a rest area!
There's also a place to play cards nearby!
Lu Zhiye hadn't relaxed like this in a long time; recently, he had been extremely busy with things in Pengcheng.
I finally relaxed, and a pleasant atmosphere emanated from me!
He raised his glass towards Louis: "As expected, nothing escapes your eyes."
Hearing his praise, Louis wrinkled his nose with a bit of smugness!
"Speak, is there something you need my help with?"
When he asked this, Lu Zhiye was no longer willing to hide it: "Tan Guoli, you still remember her, right?"
A name rushed into his ears, and when he figured out who it was, a rare look of embarrassment appeared on Louis's face!
He coughed twice: "I vaguely remember Director Tan's daughter. I met her once when I went to Lincheng before!"
Lu Zhiye looked at him with a half-smile, as if to say, "I see through everything!"
Louis touched the tip of his nose, put down his teacup, leaned forward, and asked, "What's wrong?"
When Tan Guoli came to see him a few days ago, he had already made it clear to her that their relationship was just a fleeting affair.
Back when the two first met, Louis expressed his feelings!
Tan Guoli didn't mind at all; Louis thought she, like him, only considered it a chance encounter.
I never expected that they would now turn to Lu Zhiye as a lobbyist?
Thinking of this, Louis's face was full of impatience: "What happened back then was consensual, I didn't..."
Tan Guoli is pregnant!
Lu Zhiye cut to the chase and interrupted him directly!
These words struck Louis like a thunderbolt!
He was like a plucked rooster, his throat was tightly squeezed, and he couldn't utter a single word for a long time!
This expression was truly rare; if Lu Zhiye had a camera nearby, he would definitely have taken a picture of it.
Lu Zhiye glanced at Wen Sihe beside him, and Wen Sihe, understanding the situation, seized the opportunity to say, "This time, my husband and I will also act as intermediaries."
I'd like to ask Mr. Louis what his opinion is!
If you are willing to take responsibility for Tan Guoli, then we can discuss the rest!
If they are unwilling to take responsibility, the Tan family will lose face!
After all, China is different from other countries. A few years ago, unmarried couples holding hands on the street would be considered harassing!
It's easy to imagine how strict the rules are regarding premarital pregnancy!
Therefore, we all hope that Mr. Louis will carefully consider this matter!
Louis swallowed hard, his eyes gleaming. "Are you telling the truth?"
His unusual behavior startled the couple!
Wen Sihe quickly replied, "Of course it's true!"
Suddenly, Louis burst into laughter, slapping his thigh and pacing back and forth in the room!
Wen Sihe instinctively moved closer to Lu Zhiye.
She moved slightly closer to Lu Zhiye and said cautiously, "What's wrong with Louis? Has he gone mad?"
Lu Zhiye was also confused, but judging from the situation, Louis seemed to have accepted the child!
The Tan family should have nothing to worry about now!
After venting his emotions, Louis sat down next to Lu Zhiye and said happily, "I'll take responsibility!"
Suddenly remembering something, his expression turned somewhat unpleasant!
In the midst of extreme joy and sorrow, the lower half of his face was smiling, while the upper half was scrunched up, making him look like a clown, which was quite comical!
Wen Sihe was very perceptive and knew that some things might only be heard by the men. She quickly stood up and said to the two of them, "I'll go outside and see if the hangover soup is ready."
After Wen Sihe left, Louis said with a worried look, "Now my brothers are not at peace. Father is about to retire, and everyone is eyeing the power he holds!"
So I can't bring Tan Guoli back to China recently, and I'll have to ask you to help look after her, especially the child!
Seeing Lu Zhiye raise his eyebrows in surprise.
Louis gritted his teeth and stopped hiding it: "To be honest, my lover has passed away. Ten years ago, I injured my body due to an emergency!"
The doctors around me have all determined that I may not be able to have children in the future!
So this child, unexpectedly, will be my only child!
Please keep this a secret, Mr. Lu!
Upon hearing this, even the usually composed Lu Zhiye couldn't help but gasp in surprise.
For a moment, he didn't know whether to praise Tan Guoli's good luck or Louis's good luck!
Fearing he might refuse, Louis quickly said, "Mr. Lu, I know you've always wanted to expand into overseas markets!"
"Alright then, all my future purchases from China will be handled by you!"
Lu Zhiye's pupils trembled slightly. Louis's purchase of fabric this time was huge. If all the fabric in the future came from him, wouldn't he become the biggest middleman?
The profits involved are immeasurable!
This is a business with no upfront costs; he doesn't need to pay any upfront capital or set up his own factory!
