Zhou Rang coughed lightly, avoiding Su Nan's burning gaze, and said directly: "This is my girlfriend Su Nan."
"Hey guys, nice to meet you. From now on, you don't have to call me Miss Su. Just call me by my name." Su Nan smiled sweetly and raised the orange juice in her hand to them.
Everyone quickly responded and raised their glasses, clinking them politely.
"This is Yang Qianhe, and the one next to her is Tian Yuanyuan. They are husband and wife."
"This is Chen Jialing, and the one next to her is Wang Changyuan. They are also a couple."
"This is Zhang Xiang."
"This is Zheng Guangming. You met him before in Sang'an County."
Su Nan carefully memorized the names one by one in his mind to avoid calling the wrong person in the future, which would be embarrassing.
"We are all old classmates and our homes are very close to each other. Don't be polite, sister-in-law. Just order whatever you want to eat." Tian Yuanyuan handed the menu to Su Nan and said enthusiastically.
"Hey, thank you Sister Yuanyuan." Su Nan curled his lips into a smile and agreed generously. He first asked if everyone present had any dietary restrictions, and then opened the menu.
After ordering the restaurant's signature dishes and a few good side dishes, he stopped and asked them if they wanted anything else. Everyone shook their heads, and Su Nan raised his hand slightly and handed the menu back to the waiter.
Seeing Su Nan's smooth and skillful movements, taking care of everyone while being extremely generous and polite, others silently added a little more affection for her in their hearts.
"By the way, I saw in the news that you opened a store. The name of the store is 'rich', right?" Tian Yuanyuan suddenly seemed to remember something, leaned forward slightly, and looked at Su Nan expectantly.
"Yeah." Su Nan didn't understand, but nodded anyway.
"My sister told me a few days ago that she found a job, and it turns out she works in your store." Tian Yuanyuan clapped her hands and spoke happily.
Hearing this, Su Nan felt that the world was too small. A smile appeared on his lips, and he asked in surprise, "Could it be that your sister is Xiao Nuan?"
"Yes, her name is Tian Xiaonuan. Oh, this is too much." Tian Yuanyuan slapped Yang Qianhe on the back with such force that Su Nan felt pain just by looking at it, and his back seemed to feel a trace of pain as well.
Su Nan's gaze subconsciously fell on Tian Yuanyuan's gentle face, and he swallowed. This is what they say: don't judge a book by its cover.
"Hiss, wife, please be gentler next time." Yang Qianhe touched his back and wailed exaggeratedly. His resentful eyes made everyone else at the table laugh.
Tian Yuanyuan smiled shyly, pinched Yang Qianhe's thigh under the table without any anger, and said with a fake smile: "Husband, am I too harsh?"
"No, no." Yang Qianhe quickly restrained the expression on his face and denied it seriously.
Hearing him say this, Tian Yuanyuan snorted softly: "That's more like it."
Su Nan couldn't help but cover her lips and laugh, and fell on Zhou Rang's shoulder. The latter lowered his eyes and hugged her shoulders lovingly.
Seeing this, Zhang Xiang on the side looked away, raised her head and drank the red wine in one gulp, then smashed the wine glass hard on the table. Although the noise was loud, it was masked by the flow of food being served, so no one else noticed her abnormality.
Only Zheng Guangming, who was sitting next to her, seemed to have noticed something and stared at Zhang Xiang's profile thoughtfully.
"If you find my sister doing something wrong, you should teach her a lesson. This girl has never suffered much since she was a child. Only after she has been tempered outside this time, she will understand things better."
Tian Yuanyuan raised her glass and gestured to Su Nan, then drank it all.
Su Nan quickly returned the greeting and said, "I don't manage the store directly. I have entrusted it to specialized people to take care of it. So I won't be partial or target Xiao Nuan. It all depends on her performance."
"That's true." The smile on Tian Yuanyuan's face paused, but soon returned to normal and started eating.
Su Nan lowered her eyes imperceptibly. Tian Yuanyuan's words seemed to ask her to discipline Tian Xiaonuan, but in reality they were asking her to take care of her own sister.
But if something like opening a backdoor happens for the first time, there will always be a second time. Why did she make her own store so "dirty"?
Moreover, if you really want Tian Xiaonuan to become more and more mature, you shouldn't do this. You must know that social experience is the best way to make a person grow rapidly.
During the rest of the meal, few people spoke, adhering to the fine Chinese tradition of not talking while eating or sleeping.
When they were almost done eating, Su Nan picked up her makeup bag and whispered in Zhou Rang's ear, "I'm going to the bathroom to touch up my makeup."
"Yeah." Zhou Rang nodded and watched Su Nan leave.
As soon as Su Nan came, a strange atmosphere filled the dining table.
Chen Jialing, who had been silent the whole time, wiped her mouth with napkins and said in a cold voice, "Su Nan, I like it very much."
Wang Changyuan, who was drinking, turned his head to look at his wife in surprise. You know, it is definitely not easy to get something from her.
Zhou Rang naturally knew this, and he raised his eyebrows with some pride and said, "It's useless to like her, she is my partner."
Chen Jialing glanced at him calmly, her eyes seemed to say: "Childish."
"Brother Rang, when are you going to bring her home to show her to uncle and aunt?" Zhang Xiang put his hands on the table, supporting his chin, and asked at the right moment, with a look of curiosity on his face, as if he was really thinking about their future.
Zhang Xiang remembered that Zhou Rang's father once said in front of many people that what he hated most were girls who were good at playing with everyone, and actresses were one of them.
If Zhou Rang took Su Nan home, then no one else would say anything, Zhou's father would be able to break up the couple.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiang's lips slowly curled up.
Before Zhou Rang could answer, Zheng Guangming spoke first: "Miss Su is a serious student at Huaqing University. She still has to study. It's never too late to meet her parents."
"Oh, right, I almost forgot about this. Last year, the whole Shanghai was reporting this. I remember it was still a lawsuit, right?" Wang Changyuan crossed his hands on the table and said in amazement.
"That's right, a lawyer, an actress, a beauty, and she's also good at making money. I'll be thankful if my future wife can have any of these qualities." Zheng Guangming pursed his lips, seeming very distressed.
"Stop teasing you." Zhou Rang smiled and pointed at the tip of Zheng Guangming's nose, then sighed faintly and said, "It's not that I don't want to take it back, it's Nan Nan who has been shirking it. But it can't be said that she is shirking it."
At this point, Zhou Rang frowned, not knowing how to express himself. Finally, he leaned back in his chair helplessly, spread his hands, and pondered for a while before speaking.
"Every time I talk about this topic, she diverts my attention as soon as I start talking about it, and then I lose interest. Why do you think this is?"
