Knock, knock, knock.
The door of the box was pushed open and two waiters came in, one of them holding a pot filled with butter and chili, and the other holding a kettle.
"Mr. Ming, this is the soup base you ordered. The dish you ordered will be delivered to you as soon as possible."
"Yeah," Baili Hanming responded. Seeing that He Mozhao had already closed the menu, he reached out and took it and handed it to the waiter who was talking. "Send these over as soon as possible."
"Okay," the waiter replied and left.
As soon as the door closed, the waitress carrying the kettle excitedly grabbed another waitress, "Did you see that? Did you see that?! The guy next to Mr. Ming is so handsome! Although Mr. Ming is also very handsome, that guy is simply divine!!"
"I didn't expect that the famous Mr. Ming would bring people to eat hot pot...", another waiter ignored the waiter with the teapot, just looked back at the closed door, and said to himself.
"Could it be Mr. Ming's boyfriend? It's said that Mr. Ming has never been interested in women..." The waitress carrying the teapot had a flash of inspiration in her mind, and a guess came to her mind, "If that's the case, then they're a perfect match!"
Another waiter glanced at her and said, "Take it easy and don't talk nonsense. If the manager catches us talking about a customer, especially Mr. Ming, one of the shareholders, we'll lose our jobs."
"I know, I know. I'll just secretly imagine it in my mind. I still have the necessary professional qualities." The two of them whispered and left.
Outside the hot pot restaurant, Xiao Rui held a document in one hand and flipped through it quickly with the other, reporting non-stop, "Boss Yao, this MY hot pot restaurant is the first restaurant confirmed to open in this mall. It's also a new establishment under the Baili Group. It's currently doing well in terms of sales, and the daily traffic is steadily increasing. Would you like to come in and take a look?"
Baili Xiyao, listening to the report, wanted to shake her head and leave to look at the next one, but the aroma made her a little greedy. Plus, it was time for dinner, so she said, "Let's go in and ask for a private room. Everyone must be hungry after following me all the way. Let's have hot pot tonight."
Hearing the boss' arrival, the store manager hurried out to greet him personally, "Boss Yao, Boss Ming is in box one. It seems he has an appointment. Could you please arrange box three for you?"
"Yeah," Baili Xiyao didn't expect that his eldest brother was here too, but when he thought about his eldest brother's special obsession with food, he didn't plan to say hello. He just wanted to finish his meal quickly and go home to accompany his little baby after the inspection.
In box number three, after Baili Xiyao sat down, he took out his cell phone and took a look, only to find that there was no message from He Mozhao. Thinking that he might have just received the meal he ordered for him and was probably eating it, he didn't think much about it.
Just as he was about to put down his phone, it rang. Baili Xiyao swiped the phone and answered, "Hello."
"Boss Yao, it looks like Boss Mo isn't home. The delivery guy just called me and said he'd been ringing the doorbell for five minutes, but no one opened it."
"..." Baili Xiyao suddenly had a bad feeling. He opened the chat interface with He Mozhao while on the phone and confirmed that there was indeed no message from He Mozhao. "You ask the delivery man to leave the meal at the door, and go back first."
"yes"
Baili Xiyao hung up the phone, stood up and walked out the door. Seeing her serious expression, Xiao Rui gave some instructions to the other people and followed Baili Xiyao out of the box.
The voice of "the number you dialed is turned off" kept coming from the other end of the phone, which made Baili Xiyao a little annoyed. Without waiting for Xiao Rui to ask, Baili Xiyao, who was about to use his spiritual sense to search for He Mozhao, saw the door of the No. 1 box opposite, which was opened for the delivery of food.
Two familiar faces came into view. One was her eldest brother, and the other was her little darling! In her impression, her eldest brother and her little darling were not close enough to have dinner together alone.
Seeing his little darling about to put a piece of spicy beef covered in red chili powder into his mouth, Baili Xiyao kicked open the door of the private room that was about to close, "Don't eat it!"
This kick not only scared Xiao Rui who was behind Baili Xiyao, but also scared the two people who were enjoying their meal inside and the waiter who was serving dishes and clearing away empty plates.
Baili Xiyao walked into the private room with a cold face, glanced at the boiling pot covered with red oil, then glanced at the waiter who was scared by him, and said coldly: "Get out!"
It’s over, it’s over, I’m done…
When He Mozhao saw Baili Xiyao appear in the box, he was so scared that his hands shook and his chopsticks fell directly on the table. The tips of the chopsticks made a crisp sound when they hit the small bowl, and the piece of spicy beef also fell on the table. He Mozhao's heart skipped a beat.
Baili Hanming also felt a pang of fear in his heart. He looked at Baili Xiyao and then at He Mozhao, his eyes signaling: Didn't you say my sister was in trouble? Why did she show up?
He Mozhao blinked: Xixi is indeed busy... I don't know why she is here, I only know that I seem to be finished...
You might still be able to struggle a bit, but I'm really finished! Baili Hanming rolled his eyes silently, his face showing a look of despair. Based on his understanding of his sister, he was bound to be beaten...
Xiao Rui, who followed Baili Xiyao in, took a clear look at the current situation and immediately turned around to close and lock the door to block the view from outside. Then, he cast a look at He Mozhao from behind Baili Xiyao, which seemed to indicate that he was getting carried away.
After hesitating for a while, He Mozhao spoke tentatively with a guilty conscience, "Xixi." Baili Xiyao looked up at him with a frown.
Perhaps it was because it had been too long since he had seen Baili Xiyao looking at him with such a cold face, He Mozhao suddenly felt a sense of grievance in his heart, his nose felt sore, and his eyes were filled with tears, as if he would shed tears in the blink of an eye.
