The two of them are tall, have long legs, and walk fast.
Zhong Yuhuai deliberately slowed down his pace, but Jing Yuchen didn't notice at all, so Zhong Li had to quickly keep up with his pace.
Normally, Mr. Zhong would not let Zhong Li come in this situation.
I think it was because of her recent changes that she was allowed to have more contact with the outside world.
As a member of a wealthy family, there are some things that cannot be avoided.
Zhong Li will have to experience these things sooner or later.
"Tribulus terrestris?"
A voice came from beside her, shouting her name in surprise.
Zhong Li looked up and saw a group of people standing not far away.
Lu Zichen, who had also just finished school, was standing in the queue, and beside him stood Xia Keying.
The two old men next to him were dressed in simple clothes. One of them held Buddhist beads in his hand and was very elegant in a Chinese tunic suit; the other was leaning on a cane and had gray hair. He seemed to be over sixty years old, but he was very energetic and looked different from his age.
Spiritual energy.
The woman next to Xia Keying has her hair tied up with a hosta, and the crystal bracelet on her wrist is dazzling. She wears an off-white cheongsam to highlight her figure. She is obviously a woman, but she seems to be in her early twenties.
When Xia Keying saw her, she felt a little embarrassed and lowered her head slightly.
Zhong Li raised his eyebrows.
Is this scene about getting engaged?
Marriage between wealthy families is not uncommon, Gu Haoxuan and Ling Yuwei are an example.
Elderly people on both sides are here, so it seems that the marriage is not over.
"Xiaochen, is she your friend?" The indifferent old man, leaning on a cane, turned to ask his grandson.
Lu Zichen nodded, "Yeah."
He knew that Zhong Li's family was well off, but appearing here really surprised him.
Shuixie Pavilion is the most upscale restaurant in Haicheng, and only accepts ten tables of guests every day.
When making reservations in advance at other restaurants, there is a risk that someone with a strong background will have to give up your seat, but Shuixieting is different.
As long as you pay the deposit, you will have your meal on time, which shows how strong the people behind it are.
Hearing the word "friend", Zhong Yuhuai smiled happily. He turned around and suggested: "Why don't you chat with your friend for a while, and we'll wait for you in the private room?"
Zhong Li glanced at it lightly and said, "No, I'm superfluous."
Lu Zichen was a little stunned.
There are only three private rooms in Shuixie Pavilion.
It’s not like he hasn’t made guesses about Zhong Li’s background before.
There are not many Zhong family members in Haicheng who are capable enough to book a private room in Shuixie Pavilion. He really has no impression.
The Zhong family has always kept a low profile, so it’s normal for Lu Zichen not to know.
The two groups of people went to the places they had booked before, not far apart.
In the box.
Mr. Zhong was chatting happily with the head of the Jing family branch, and when they heard the noise, they all looked over.
Mr. Zhong waved, "Xiao Li, come and sit next to grandpa."
Zhong Yuhuai had long been accustomed to this and sat next to Zhong Li.
As soon as he sat down, Zhong Li noticed a warm gaze.
It’s Jing Qingye.
Today, her makeup is exquisite. The light green luxurious dress highlights her fair complexion. Her hair is casually draped behind her back, with sparkling rhinestone hairpins. Her beautiful collarbone is holding a lily of the valley necklace.
"Mr. Zhong, this grandson is really handsome." Jing Rongzheng praised him repeatedly.
Mr. Zhong was also a powerful presence in the imperial capital back then. Although he was inferior to the Jing family, it was not an exaggeration to call him Mr. Zhong.
Mr. Zhong couldn't help but laugh, "You're still a child, it doesn't matter what you look like."
He said this, but he couldn't help but feel proud in his heart, and introduced to Zhong Li: "Xiao Li, this is the head of the Jing family in Haicheng. Please call me Uncle Jing."
Zhong Li smiled slightly and called out obediently: "Hello, Uncle Jing."
