Chapter 141 So Far
"Are you Jiang Yuan?"
The voice on the other end of the phone was that of an elderly woman, and her tone was a little forceful.
Jiang Yuan's nerves tensed up reflexively. "Who are you?"
"I am Yin Dong's mother."
Jiang Yuan's hand holding the phone slightly retracted, her brain quickly turning for two seconds, and her tone became more polite, "Hello, Auntie."
"Do you have time? I'm at the tea restaurant opposite your company."
Jiang Yuan paused. It was obvious that the other party came prepared. She had no room to refuse, but she still asked, "Does Master Yin know that you are here to see me?"
Sun Mei: "He knows."
Jiang Yuan wasn't sure whether what she said was true or not. If Yin Dong knew that his mother came to see her, he would definitely show up, right?
She hesitated for two seconds and replied, "Then wait for five minutes, I'll come to you."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yuan forced herself to calm down and think for a while, then sent a message to Yin Dong: "My aunt asked me to meet her at the tea restaurant across the street. I wonder what's going on."
After a few seconds, she saw the message he sent, "I pinched a few of her flowers, I guess I'm here to settle the score with you, go ahead, she's not cannibalistic."
Jiang Yuan was extremely anxious and wanted to wait for him to come to the rescue, but who knew that he still had the leisure to joke around.
She put her phone back in her bag and went out immediately.
Across the street is a Hong Kong-style tea restaurant, which is the closest to the company. Usually, many white-collar workers who work nearby come here to eat at mealtime. But when Jiang Yuan walked into the restaurant today, the entire restaurant was empty, as if it had closed early.
This restaurant has no private rooms, and guests dine in the open hall. But at a glance, all the tables are empty today. Jiang Yuan was wondering if he had heard wrongly on the phone, when his eyes suddenly caught sight of a middle-aged woman sitting near the window in the distance.
From a distance, she could only see clearly that the woman was about fifty years old, with the typical face of a government official's wife, with relaxed brows and fair skin. She was wearing a mink coat with Song Dynasty brocade buttons and was drinking tea from a teacup. Her every move seemed to exude natural nobility.
Jiang Yuan walked towards her.
She happened to look up and noticed Jiang Yuan. She slowly put the teacup in her hand on the table, raised her eyes, and looked at Jiang Yuan carefully from head to toe.
As they got closer, Jiang Yuan was able to see the woman's face clearly. Her facial features were very regular, especially her eyebrows and eyes, which were particularly beautiful. She finally found out where Yin Dong's handsome eyebrows and eyes were inherited from.
The way the woman looked at people was very similar to Yin Dong's, both were straightforward.
Jiang Yuan felt a little uncomfortable being stared at, but she managed to keep her composure, met her gaze, and walked towards her, calling out politely, "Auntie, hello, I'm Jiang Yuan."
Sun Mei slowly retracted her gaze and said softly, "Sit down."
A waiter came over with a menu and said, "Ma'am, this is our menu. Please take a look at what you would like to eat. Please feel free to order. Our chef is here today and will serve you two only."
Jiang Yuan suddenly realized that the place was booked out.
Sun Mei looked at her and asked, "Are you hungry?"
Jiang Yuan paused, realizing that she had no intention of inviting her to dinner, and instinctively shook her head and said, "Thank you, I'm not hungry."
Sun Mei pushed the menu to the waiter and said, "Add some more tea."
The waiter was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't understand why he spent so much money to book a place, but the customer only came to drink tea.
As soon as the waiter left, Sun Mei said, "Let me cut to the chase. You should have done some research and understanding of our family's background. No matter what your intentions are or what unrealistic ideas you have, let's stop here."
