Chapter 185: Chapter 165: You Want 2 Billion?
[What type of behavior constitutes driving motor vehicles on the road in violation of road safety laws?]
Xiao ier looked at the four options on her phone, hesitating between the choices of violation of regulations, violation of law, and violation of rules.
“Which one should I choose?” Her brows furrowed as she looked at the similar descriptions,
“Violation of regulations?
Doesn’t seem quite accurate.
Violation of rules?
Doesn’t feel quite right either.
Violation of law, yes, it should be violation of law!”
After submitting her answer, a score of 99 appeared on the screen.
“Haha!
Not bad this ti!”
She excitedly reviewed the incorrect answers, “Let’s do it again, aiming to pass the first subject in one go!”
“Hello~”
Just as she was preparing to intensely review questions again before the opening of Wanbao Hall, a voice interrupted Xiao ier’s plan.
She looked up and saw Hoshino Mika standing in front of her, smiling, “Hello, are you here to eat?
We’re not open yet.”
Hoshino Mika shook her head, dressed very modestly today.
In a beige dress, the hem embroidered with delicate light blue flowers, fresh and natural.
Her face was hardly made up, with just a light touch of pink blush and long eyelashes curling slightly, fluttering.
i Xiang also caught sight of Xiao ier’s face, amazed by her stunning beauty.
“Miss?
Miss?” Xiao ier called out twice to bring i Xiang back from her trance.
“Sumimasen.” i Xiang bowed, “I’m here to see Mr.
Chen Cheng.”
Xiao ier then realized that the young lady in front of her was not a local, yet she still spoke with a smile, “Xiao Cheng had a bit too much to drink last night, he’s still not up.”
She walked out from behind the cash register, bringing her usual enthusiasm, “Please have a seat here and wait for a while.”
“Thank you.”
i Xiang followed Xiao ier’s steps to a table near the door and sat down.
She curiously looked around Wanbao Hall, “Is this Mr.
Chen Cheng’s business?”
Xiao ier smiled, “Yes, Wanbao Hall is sothing Xiao Cheng has put a lot of thought into.”
i Xiang nodded gently, her gaze still wandering around, “It looks very nice.”
At that mont, Xiao ier turned around and poured a glass of water for i Xiang, placing it in front of her, “Have so water first.”
i Xiang accepted the glass with both hands, politely expressing her thanks.
“Have you had breakfast?” Xiao ier asked further.
i Xiang shook her head.
“Would you like sothing to eat?
It might be a while before Xiao Cheng cos.”
“Wouldn’t it be too troubleso for you?”
Xiao ier shook her head with a smile, “Not at all!
Wanbao Hall is always ready to welco guests.”
Saying so, she went into the kitchen and soon brought out several delicate pastries.
“These are our new items, with flavors of matcha, mango, and hawthorn.” Xiao ier explained, “Please eat these while I make sothing warm for you.”
“Thank you.”
i Xiang picked up a pastry and took a gentle bite.
Her eyes instantly lit up, “This is delicious!”
Xiao ier watched i Xiang’s satisfied expression and also smiled happily.
“You sit here, rice wine sweet dumplings okay?”
“Yes!”
Xiao ier went back into the kitchen, and soon, a bowl of steaming sweet dumplings was brought out.
She placed it in front of i Xiang, “Be careful, it’s hot.”
i Xiang looked up curiously, “Sister, are you the owner?”
Xiao ier nodded, “Yes.”
“Mr.
Chen Cheng is very lucky!” i Xiang smiled brightly.
Xiao ier sat down, “By the way, what do you need Xiao Cheng for?
If it’s urgent, I can call him to co earlier.”
i Xiang put down her spoon, “No need, no need.
Mr.
Cheng and Aunt Wen must have had quite a lot to drink last night, I can wait.”
“Wen…
Aunt?
Wen Shulin?”
i Xiang nodded, “Sister, do you know Aunt Wen too?”
Xiao ier covered her mouth and chuckled softly, “I know Sister Lin very well!
But calling her ‘Aunt’…”
She thought for a mont, and considering that i Xiang looked about twenty-one or twenty-two years old, calling Wen Shulin “Aunt” seed appropriate.
“My father and Aunt Wen are good friends, she used to hold when I was a child.”
i Xiang explained, “I used to call her sister too, but my father said it was disrespectful, so he asked to call her aunt.”
“I see~” Xiao ier found this young lady to be quite extraordinary.
She smiled, “Just eat, Xiao Cheng will be here soon.”
“Sure!”
i Xiang picked up her small spoon again, scooped a thumb-sized sweet dumpling, and as soon as she tasted it, her eyes widened.
“What’s wrong?” Xiao ier asked.
“This flavor, it’s exactly like what my mom used to make!”
Xiao ier was taken aback, then laughed.
i Xiang stirred the sweet dumplings in the bowl, “I haven’t tasted this familiar flavor in a long ti, not since my mom…”
She paused, not continuing further.
“Your mother is…”
i Xiang continued, “My mom was a student who studied in Japan, she t and fell in love with my dad at Waseda University.”
“No wonder your Chinese is so good.”
i Xiang: “Mom taught Chinese since I was little, she said not to forget our roots.
But later…
my mom passed away due to an illness.”
ntioning this, her eyes started to well up.
“Don’t be too sad, I’m sure your mom in heaven would want you to be happy,” Xiao ier comforted.
i Xiang sniffled, ‘Hmm, I’ll try my best!”
At that mont, Zhao Ling also entered Wanbao Hall.
“Er sister, you ca in so early?”
Seeing the guest, she quickly set down the fresh flowers she changed daily at the door, “Do you need to do anything?”
Xiao ier: “The delivery guy will be here later, check on that.”
“Okay, Er sister.”
i Xiang blinked, “Sister, is your surna Er?”
