Tina is a travel enthusiast.
Every year during her annual leave, she would go out to relax and unwind. In recent years, Tina has fallen in love with traveling abroad to experience the customs and cultures of different countries.
Everything is better abroad.
She just couldn't get used to the food. Whenever she stayed in a country for more than three days, she would start to miss the food from her hometown terribly.
Therefore, her first thought was to bring the pastries Xu Zhizhou made to Jiang Ning to try.
There were no gifts, but eating hometown food in a foreign land made me even happier.
What's more, Xu Zhizhou's cooking skills are so good!
Tina could already imagine how surprised the Chinese heroine would be when she tasted the peach blossom pastry from her hometown.
Upon hearing this, Zelda smiled and said, "What you said has reminded me. It seems I need to make a reservation at a more authentic Chinese restaurant."
She had originally planned to take Jiang Ning to eat authentic local cuisine.
But after her sister said that, she felt that it might be better to find an authentic Chinese restaurant than local food.
Hearing this, Tina frowned slightly. "Sister, when any cuisine is introduced to a region, it is always adjusted according to the local tastes. Where in P country can you find a proper Chinese restaurant? Just like I can't find authentic P country cuisine in other countries. Sister, if you and brother-in-law want to treat the heroine to a meal, find a local specialty, the kind you can't find anywhere else. That would be more meaningful."
Zelda thought what he said made sense, and nodded. "Okay, I'll hang up and think about it. I'll send you the location once I've found a restaurant. See you tomorrow night."
See you tomorrow night.
After hanging up the phone, Zelda turned to John and asked her husband for his opinion, "Where do you think we should take Miss Shi?"
John thought about it seriously for a moment, "I think Tina is right. Instead of treating Miss Jiang to inauthentic Chinese food in P country, we should treat her to our local specialties."
At this point, John continued, "How about this? Miss Jiang, how about we go to Jimmy's restaurant?"
Jimmy is John's friend. He used to be a Michelin three-star chef, but after quitting, he opened his own members-only restaurant, which became so popular that customers needed to make reservations a month in advance.
Therefore, many foreign internet celebrities and bloggers even fly here specifically to check in.
Therefore, Jimmy's restaurant is also an internationally popular restaurant.
After much deliberation, John decided that inviting Jiang Ning and her friends to Jimmy's restaurant would be the most appropriate thing to do.
After all, Jimmy's restaurant is quite well-known in China.
Zelda thought for a moment and then said, "Okay, then you can tell Jimmy in advance that Miss Jiang is a VIP in our family, and ask him to make sure to use the best ingredients to give Miss Jiang and her friends the best experience. Money is not a problem, and tell him not to worry about the price of the ingredients."
Since we're going to treat Jiang Ning to dinner, we should naturally treat her to the best food.
We also want Jiang Ning to have a wonderful memory in Country P.
“Okay, no problem.” Jimmy nodded. “I’ll go contact Jimmy right now.”

On the other side.
Lane Castle.
Brock is recovering very well recently.
He had a rosy complexion and a steady gait.
If not told, no one would guess that just ten days ago, this was a bedridden, unconscious, and dying person.
Mrs. Lane was directing the servants to wipe this and that in the hall.
Even the carpets and murals in the hall were replaced.
The entire Ryan Mansion was cleaned.
This is to celebrate Brock's rebirth from the ashes.
This was also to welcome Jiang Ning's arrival.
Seeing that the hall was almost fully decorated, Mrs. Lane remembered something and looked at the butler beside her. "I heard from Celia that Miss Shi doesn't like coffee. Her favorite drink is milk tea. Leo, is the milk tea ready?"
The housekeeper smiled and said, "Mrs. Ryan, don't worry, the milk tea has already been prepared."
Mrs. Lane then remembered something and added, "Also, make sure you have some Coke ready."
Besides milk tea.
Jiang Ning also has a favorite.
That's Coca-Cola!
The butler looked at Mrs. Lane, "The cola is ready too."
Mrs. Lane nodded and went to check other things, not letting herself stop.
Seeing Mrs. Lane bustling around, Brock smiled and said, "Mom, why don't you sit down and rest for a while? You've been busy non-stop since this morning."
Originally, Brock wasn't particularly curious about Jiang Ning.
But now!
He was genuinely curious.
What kind of girl could make a mother so excited?
and.
The other party was a Chinese citizen.
In Brock's opinion, his mother was making a mountain out of a molehill.
“I’m not tired,” Mrs. Lane glanced down at her watch. “Strange, didn’t Celia say she had already picked up Miss Shi and put her in the car? Why haven’t they arrived yet?”
Brock chuckled. "Mom, it's Sunday, traffic jams are normal."
Moreover, their home is located in a busy downtown area, and around 10 a.m. is the busiest time of day for traffic.
Mrs. Lane then walked over to the sofa and sat down. "What you said seems to make some sense. Let's wait a little longer. If it's not fifteen minutes, I'll call and ask Celia."
Brock chuckled and handed Mrs. Lane a glass of water. "Have some water first. Don't rush, they might be here soon."
Mrs. Lane took a sip of water. "Brock, won't you reconsider that matter?"
Brock naturally knew what his mother was referring to. He leaned back on the sofa and said jokingly, "Mom, I've heard that Chinese people are skilled at using Gu poison. Those who are poisoned will become completely obedient to their host. Now I suspect that you might have been poisoned by Miss Shi?"
Otherwise, why would Mrs. Ryan keep trying to match him up with Jiang Ning?
"Who said I'm bewitched?" Mrs. Lane rolled her eyes at Brock. "I'm perfectly fine. I just love Miss Shi so much! Once you meet Miss Shi, you'll understand how I feel right now."
Brock turned his head slightly. "Then may I interview you? How are you feeling right now?"
Mrs. Lane sighed, "It's a feeling of disappointment and frustration."
Before Brock could speak, Mrs. Lane continued, "Someone as outstanding as Miss Shi must have a lot of suitors. If you don't work harder, she'll be snatched away by someone else."
Brock shook his head helplessly. "The more I look at you, the more I think you seem to be under a spell."
