Chapter 149: Chapter 149: Bringing a Man Ho Chapter 149: Chapter 149: Bringing a Man Ho After agreeing to et Li Yehan, when work ended, Nan Qiao left the office.
Before she could reach the company’s exit, He Li stopped her.
“Mr.
Qiao, I have sothing to tell you.”
Nan Qiao, holding her bag and surrounded by no one, thought, He Li waited this long for her?
Nan Qiao smiled slightly, “He Li, if you have sothing to say, you can co to my office.
There’s no need to wait here for so long.”
“Mr.
Qiao, I was afraid you were too busy, so I didn’t disturb you.
There’s nothing urgent now that work is over so I waited here for you for a while.”
Nan Qiao asked, “What is it?”
“Mr.
Qiao, about the design competition, could you take with you?
I want to gain so experience and it would help create better work when I return.”
Nan Qiao was surprised.
How did He Li know she had only chosen Rong Yan for the competition?
Rong Yan was very discreet and wouldn’t share such information easily.
Before Nan Qiao could respond, He Li continued, “Mr.
Qiao, I know I’m not as capable as Rong Yan.
I definitely won’t represent the company in the competition.
I just want to co and see the world, gain so experience, that’s all.
Mr.
Qiao, can you take with you?”
The sincerity in He Li’s eyes made it hard for Nan Qiao to refuse.
“Okay, you can co with us.”
He Li bowed excitedly, “Thank you, Mr.
Qiao!”
Nan Qiao nodded with a smile, “Go back now.”
He Li followed Nan Qiao downstairs and walked outside with her.
He Li secretly scrutinized Nan Qiao, cursing inwardly, Damn, her skin is too good!
Her skin was smooth and elastic, without any pores, looking good from any angle.
A car was parked roadside, its window rolled down, revealing the handso and distinguished face of Li Yehan.
“Qiaoqiao, get in the car.”
His voice was magnetic, indeed very pleasant to hear.
He Li, standing by, saw Li Yehan’s face through the car window, her eyes filled with admiration.
“He Li, I’m leaving first.”
Nan Qiao got into the car, and He Li foolishly watched her drive away, unable to snap out of her daze.
“My goodness!
He’s way too handso!” He Li exclaid.
He Li ca back to her senses only after the car had left.
…
Nan Qiao sat in the car, her hand was held by the person next to her.
Nan Qiao smiled and asked, “Didn’t I tell you to go straight to the restaurant?
Why did you co here?”
“I wanted to see you.”
Nan Qiao blushed slightly at his words, her cheeks turning rosy, which made Li Yehan’s peach blossom eyes burn brighter.
Nan Qiao pushed him slightly, saying softly, “Li Yehan, be more subtle, there are other people here.”
Li Yehan’s lips curled up, and he whispered into Nan Qiao’s ear, “Alright, I’ll talk to you when there’s no one around.”
Nan Qiao ant for him to not say it at all, but this guy actually wanted to continue.
Li Yehan held Nan Qiao’s hand, his palm very dry and slightly cool, but Nan Qiao’s small hand felt comfortable wrapped in his.
They drove to the restaurant Nan Qiao ntioned, and both got out of the car.
Li Yehan had taken a rideshare today, not driving his own car.
The restaurant was bustling with people, but fortunately, Nan Qiao didn’t need to reserve a seat, and they found a spot to sit.
The manager, seeing Nan Qiao coming, brightened up and was very respectful.
“Miss Nan Qiao, Mr.
Li, this way please.”
Nan Qiao and Li Yehan followed the manager inside.
As they walked in, Zhou Jingya and Lu Zhengyang also arrived to dine.
They were stopped at the entrance by the staff.
“Sorry, we don’t have any tables available.”
Lu Zhengyang was imdiately furious, pressing, “People ahead of us could go in; why can’t we?”
“They had reservations, so they could go in.”
Zhou Jingya asked, “But aren’t there two tables available inside?”
“Those are reserved by others who will arrive soon.”
Zhou Jingya, linking her arm through Lu Zhengyang’s, frowned unhappily, “Brother Zhengyang, maybe Nan Qiao is behind this.
She must have seen us coming and deliberately stopped us!”
Lu Zhengyang retorted, “Does she think she owns this restaurant?
Can she do whatever she wants?”
Lu Zhengyang told the staff, “Get your supervisor here; I need to speak with him!”
The staff replied, “The manager is taking care of the owner’s table and isn’t free.”
Lu Zhengyang and Zhou Jingya again felt they were being targeted deliberately.
Lu Zhengyang questioned, “What do you an by that?
What kind of attitude is this?”
The staff mber responded calmly, “Sir, I’m just telling the truth.
If we don’t serve the owner’s table well, we’ll all be out of jobs.
If I lose my job, will you hire all of us?”
Zhou Jingya frowned, “The owner?
The man and woman who just went in, one of them is the owner?
Which one, the man or the woman?”
The staff mber replied, “I can’t say, as that would be revealing the owner’s privacy, and you could sue for that!
Ma’am, we really don’t have any tables left, perhaps you could co so other ti.”
Next ti there still wouldn’t be a table!
Lu Zhengyang was about to lose his temper again but Zhou Jingya stopped him.
“Brother Zhengyang, let’s go across the street to eat, that restaurant must be better than this one.”
Lu Zhengyang was convinced to leave, his brows furrowed as they walked away.
Zhou Jingya, softly speaking while linking her arm through Lu Zhengyang’s, said, “Brother Zhengyang, why get angry over irrelevant people.
Eating with you, even if it’s just street food, I still feel blessed.
In a few days, I will participate in a design competition.
Rember to bring auntie along to cheer for .
If auntie sees winning first place, won’t she agree to our relationship?”
Lu Zhengyang’s expression softened a lot when he thought of this, “Xiao Ya, don’t worry.
Once my mom sees you shine, she’ll surely agree to our relationship.”
Zhou Jingya chuckled happily, “That would be wonderful!
Brother Zhengyang, for you, I will continue to make an effort.”
“Xiao Ya, I’ll also make an effort to persuade my mom to accept you sooner.”
Both exchanged smiles, each with their plans in mind.
…
Nan Qiao ordered five dishes and a soup, selecting rice as well.
The ho-cooked als here had a taste of ho, and Li Yehan also liked the first bite he took.
“The food at this restaurant is really good.”
Nan Qiao raised her eyebrows proudly, “Naturally, if you like it, co here more often.”
That could boost her restaurant’s revenue.
Li Yehan smiled indulgently, “Good, we’ll co here often; I really like it here.
The food tastes even better when I’m with you.”
Nan Qiao lowered her head and smiled, continuing to eat.
After a satisfying al, Nan Qiao checked the ti, it was half past eight.
Just then, her phone rang; it was a call from Chen Xinwan.
“Qiaoqiao, are you back yet?
Yu Rou has brought a man ho; you should co and see.”
Chen Xinwan’s voice was very soft, as if afraid of being overheard.
Nan Qiao replied, “Alright, I’ll be right there.”
She also wanted to see who Bai Yurou had brought.
