"Finally I get to meet Miss Lan. You're such a busy person!"
Cao Ming looked at Lan Xi who came in, and like everyone else, there was surprise in his eyes.
Lan Xi looked at the familiar smile on the other person's face, raised her hand and shook hands with Cao Ming, then looked at Cao Qing on the side:
"The Cao brothers and sisters are legendary in the industry!"
She said this with a serious look on her face, as if she really knew their names.
After a few pleasantries, they sat down. Cao Qing was a little overwhelmed by Lan Xi's appearance.
"Boss Cao is honored to have you here. Today, I'll show you the menu and let you two see what Qinxiangju has to offer. If you have any new ideas, please feel free to share them with us!"
The manager smiled and handed over the menu, which was steaming hot and freshly printed.
Cao Ming took the menu and looked at Lan Xi: "Then I won't be polite?"
Lan Xi extended her hand: "Please do as you please!"
After she finished speaking, she looked at Cao Qing and smiled faintly: "Miss Cao...this is..."
"Don't pay attention to her, she's obsessed with me!" Cao Ming looked at the menu and explained to Lan Xi without raising his head.
After hearing this, Cao Qing finally came to his senses: "Brother!"
"That's all!"
Cao Ming returned the menu to the manager, reached out and took his sister's cutlery to disinfect it for her: "I don't know you yet?"
Lan Xi was distracted for a moment as she watched Cao Ming's skillful movements.
Cao Qing snorted twice and looked at Lan Xi:
"My younger brother offended me a while ago. He was spoiled by our family and has no sense of propriety. Please don't mind it, Miss Lan!"
"I don't know what the Cao family is planning, but you really need to be careful with your brother's impetuousness. After all, the Qin family controls most of Hai City's business districts. If they refuse to do business with you, you'll be in trouble!"
Lan Xi took the tea handed to her by Zhu Lingling, took a sip and said with a smile.
The Cao siblings looked at each other and seemed to be unaware of this matter.
Lan Xi raised an eyebrow: "Could it be that you two don't know about this? It seems that Cao Yue didn't mention this matter when he returned!"
Cao Ming's face darkened and he became increasingly dissatisfied with Cao Yue.
"But it doesn't matter. The young master of the Qin family happened to have something to discuss with me today, so I took the liberty of bringing him over to have a meal. I guess..." Lan Xi glanced down at her watch, then smiled and looked up:
"I'll be there in a moment, do you two mind?"
Cao Ming smiled gratefully: "Thank you, Miss Lan, otherwise I would have no explanation for my unintentional mistake!"
Lan Xi smiled and tilted her head and said:
"Whether it was an accidental mistake or not is not important, but in Hai City, where every inch of land is valuable, a casually thrown pebble could hit a rich young master. We must be more cautious in everything we do!"
"Oh, it's getting colder and colder. Luckily, we're at Qinxiangju today. I wouldn't go anywhere else!"
Just as Cao Ming was about to speak, Qin Zhong pushed the door open and came in, taking off his clothes.
Zhu Lingling took the initiative to take his clothes and hang them on the coat rack.
"Thank you, Lingling. Come and eat with us!"
Qin Zhong's warm tone towards Zhu Lingling gave Cao Ming a new perspective on this woman who was with Lan Xi.
Zhu Lingling took two steps back and smiled modestly:
"No need, Master Qin. I'll go out and wait for the young lady. Enjoy your meal!"
After saying that, he turned and left the private room.
Qin Zhong waited for Zhu Lingling to leave and sat down next to Lan Xi. "Lingling is still reserved!"
Lan Xi drank tea and said slowly: "We are discussing things, there is no need for her to stay!"
The manager came in and served the dishes and new tea, then said to Lan Xi:
"Miss Lan, the dishes are all here. Just ring the bell if you need anything!"
Lan Xi nodded and waved at him.
The door of the private room closed, and Lan Xi reached out: "Try it first! Qinxiangju's craftsmanship."
The implication is that I don't want to talk about things now.
Cao Qing was impatient. Just as she was about to speak, Cao Ming picked up some food and gave it to her sister:
"Try it now, it looks delicious!"
Cao Ming's emotional intelligence made Lan Xi re-evaluate the capabilities of the Cao family. She glanced at Qin Zhong who was eating the dish next to her, and scooped a bowl of soup for herself first.
Cao Qing understood what his brother meant, nodded, lowered his head and started eating the food in his bowl.
After taking a bite, her eyes lit up and she looked at her brother and then at Lan Xi: "It's delicious!"
She had always thought that Qinxiangju relied on backstage operations to open a shop, providing a place for company bosses to discuss business, or providing a luxurious environment for wealthy families to enjoy. Unexpectedly...
Qin Zhong looked at Cao Qing, drank a mouthful of soup, and smiled:
"You don't think Qinxiangju is just a place that looks luxurious on the surface, do you?"
Cao Qing felt a little embarrassed when his thoughts were revealed. He didn't know what to say and just lowered his head to continue eating.
Cao Ming also sighed in his heart about the deliciousness of the dishes. After hearing Qin Zhong's words, he began to explain to his sister:
"No, our hometown is different from here. Cao Qing just finds it new and interesting!"
Qin Zhong said "Oh" with an expression of sudden enlightenment.
After that, the four of them ate in silence until everyone put down their chopsticks and Lan Xi drank some tea to rinse her mouth.
"I don't plan to cooperate with the Cao family. I wonder what Shi Tinghan said when you two met him?"
Lan Xi coughed lightly and looked at Cao Ming.
After Cao Ming had tasted Qinxiangju's kung fu, he had an idea in his mind.
Unexpectedly, Cao Qing said unconvincedly:
"The last time we came here, it clearly didn't taste like this!"
Cao Ming wanted to stop his sister from talking, but it was too late. He looked at Lan Xi with an apologetic look:
"I'm sorry Miss Lan!"
Lan Xi glanced at Cao Ming and waved her hand indifferently:
