Chapter 389: See He Lu Shen
Tao Zhiwei yawned halfway when he got stuck.
"Why do you have such a ridiculous idea?"
"I saw you gave my friend a lot of gifts yesterday. The names of the gifts were all quite ambiguous," Tao Zhiyao recalled, "something like flirting, being my cat."
Tao Zhiwei was helpless. The moment he came online, he saw Jiang Chengfeng live streaming. He didn't read the comments carefully but thought the lady was pretty. He gave her a tip first since she was his sister's good friend. Later, he saw everyone calling him "cross-dressing guy" and realized that the man was a man. He felt very embarrassed.
Of course, he couldn't tell Tao Zhiyao the truth, so he made an excuse, "I saw everyone was giving these gifts, so I ordered the same one without paying attention to the name. The only thing I thought about was the amount of the red envelope. But is the name of a virtual currency worth you thinking so much?"
Tao Zhiyao smiled awkwardly, "I'm just asking."
"Okay, stop thinking about such messy things. It's not even six o'clock here yet. I'll have to get up and work after taking a nap."
Before Tao Zhiwei hung up the phone, she heard her sister say, "Thank you for your reward."
He smiled.
...
...
After ending the call and returning to the living room, Yu Zhan and Liu Lan stopped talking and looked at Tao Zhiyao at the same time.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Tao Zhiyao looked uncomfortable.
Liu Man said embarrassedly, "I just heard your conversation with that girl."
"It's okay, we didn't say anything shameful," Tao Zhiyao did not hide anything from the two of them. Anyway, her brother and Yu Zhan were friends. She gave a brief explanation and told them that the rich and beautiful girl had the audacity to want to be her sister-in-law. She also said that Yu Zhan came at the right time, otherwise she didn't know how long she would be entangled by Ji Qingqing.
As soon as Yu Zhan heard the girl's last name was Ji, he knew what her background was. Tao Zhiwei was young and promising, and at the right age to get married, so it was normal for her to be targeted by many families.
Next, I'm afraid it won't just be the Ji family. Any family with a daughter whose family background matches that of the Tao family will come knocking.
In ancient times, if a family had a daughter, thousands of families would seek her out. But in modern times, among the wealthy, it is the other way around. If a family had a son, thousands of families would seek him out. There is no way around it. A man as outstanding and virtuous as Tao Zhiwei is hard to find even with a lantern.
"Let's not talk about Ji Qingqing anymore. It makes me sick." Tao Zhiyao glanced at the cat pretending to sleep in Yu Zhan's arms. Well, she had provided the little ancestor with good food and drink, but as soon as Yu Zhan came, it completely forgot about her. What a rude cat!
"You and Manman haven't had breakfast yet. I can't let you two leave my house hungry. Let's go to the restaurant and have a simple breakfast together, even though it's getting late."
Tao Zhiyao followed the most basic etiquette of hospitality, and Yu Zhan and Liu Lan did not pretend to be polite to her.
The three of them sat down in the restaurant, and the servants brought tea and fruit as breakfast. When Ji Qingqing was here just now, Tao Zhiyao didn't even pour her a glass of water.
When Li Xiaoru and the others got up, Yu Zhan and Liu Lan had already left the Tao family. They had no idea that they had missed the invisible war between the daughters of wealthy families.
Yu Zhan took Liu Lan directly to the restaurant reserved by He Lushen. He Lushen had been looking forward to this meal for a long time. He carefully selected the restaurant and booked it in a Cantonese restaurant. He specifically asked Yu Zhan about Liu Lan's taste and preferences in advance.
Yu Zhan said that Liu Lan was not picky about food, but when he recalled her expression every time he ate with her, it seemed that she was most satisfied with the meal at Song Junzhe's house.
This Cantonese restaurant is a time-honored one. Yu Zhan had been here when he was a child. It is not the highest-end in the capital, but the taste is the best, otherwise it would not have been open for decades.
The two entered the restaurant. It was lunchtime. The first floor was crowded. There were still many people waiting for a table at the door. The waiter led them up the stairs. Liu Man was still wearing a black mask. The waiter looked at her several times. All the employees on duty today knew that the prince of Huaguang Media had reserved the second floor. This was a very generous move. Obviously, he was entertaining these two. The young man was handsome but unfamiliar. He didn't cover his face. He should not be a star. I don't know which big star the beautiful woman wearing a mask is.
Finding that the second floor was empty without a single customer, which was a huge contrast to the first floor, Liu Lan silently took off her mask. When the waiter saw her face, he concealed his surprise, and quickly glanced at Yu Zhan before continuing to lead the way.
Seeing Yu Zhan and Liu Lan, who were sitting on a chair and talking on the phone, He Lushen stood up, hung up the phone and came over with a slight smile. He seemed to have restrained his aura a little, and was no longer as domineering as when Liu Lan first met him.
"Hello, Miss Liu," He Lushen extended his hand to her and gave her a formal business greeting, acting like a CEO. However, he did not have the casualness of joking around with Yu Zhan in private. After all, it was the first time he met Liu Lan formally, so he had to pretend.
Liu Lan did not dare to neglect He Lushen, even though he looked young, handsome, and full of goodwill, but he was the boss of Huaguang Media! Lin Zhi and Tian Yafu always consulted him for important matters, and their respectful appearance left a deep impression on her.
