It's easy to change the situation, but it's hard to change the character. She doesn't take the initiative to cause trouble. For Tong Tong, she is already quite restrained. If others mess with her, she won't be able to bear it for even half a minute!
Because the seat was near the counter, Tong Tong heard clearly the conversation between the waiter and the young woman.
The waiter turned around and saw that there was nothing on the table of the two guests, so he quickly explained: "Miss, roasting duck is a labor of love, please wait a moment."
Tong Tong said: "It's not about the roast duck! I just asked you if there were private rooms, and you said no. Why do you suddenly have them now?"
"This, others made reservations in advance..."
"Nonsense! She clearly asked if there were private rooms, so where did she get the reservation?"
"When you asked just now, there was indeed no private room. A private room had just been vacated."
"Okay! Even if it has just been vacated, one must come on a first-come, first-served basis, right?"
Tong Tong was reluctant and speechless when asking the waiter's question. He didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Jiang Xinyu didn't say anything. He felt uncomfortable about such an unfair thing. Sitting there did not stop Tong Tong.
Tong Tong put on his coat and said to the waiter: "Let's go, take us there!"
The waiter was stunned: "Go, where?"
"Private room!"
"Miss, this really doesn't work..."
The woman suddenly said: "Man, let's do this. I'll switch with this lady. The two of them will go to the private room, and I'll sit here."
The waiter said quickly: "Miss, how good is this? If the boss finds out, he will definitely scold me for not greeting me well."
Tong Tong reached out and grabbed Jiang Xinyu, stood up and said, "I think this is good!"
The guy wanted to say something else, but the woman smiled slightly and said, "Let's do it this way. I'm alone, and it won't matter where I sit."
Tong Tong was afraid that the other party would change his mind, so he urged the waiter: "What's the private room number?"
"Come with me!" The waiter reluctantly led the way.
After walking a few steps, Jiang Xinyu looked back and saw that the woman was also looking over, slightly bowing her head very politely.
The private room was spacious and bright, and could seat at least five or six people. Tong Tong cheered and said proudly: "How nice this is, it's quiet and no one disturbs you!"
Jiang Xinyu pulled out a chair and sat down, saying, "If that lady hadn't been so well-mannered, we would still have to sit outside."
Tong Tong pouted and said unhappily: "What kind of self-restraint? She feels that she is in the wrong and is too embarrassed to argue with us!"
"The roast duck is here!"
The waiter came in with a tray, including roast duck, lotus leaf pancakes, sweet noodle sauce, soy sauce with minced garlic, green onions, and a plate of pickled radish strips.
The waiter heard the conversation between the two, and said while placing the dishes: "This gentleman is right, the eldest lady is a cultural person, and her self-cultivation is really not ordinary. If it were anyone else, hehe..."
Smelling the fragrant roast duck, Tong Tong couldn't help but move his index finger, grabbed a piece of duck skin and put it into his mouth, tasted it carefully, and praised: "Well, it's delicious!"
The waiter said: "That's right. Quanjude's roast duck is the most delicious roast duck in the world!"
Tong Tong reached out to cover his mouth and said to Jiang Xinyu: "Bragging!"
Jiang Xinyu smiled, and when he saw the waiter setting up the dishes, he asked casually: "Who is that young lady?"
"She is the eldest lady. Everyone in Peiping knows that. You two eat slowly and use it slowly. If you need anything, call me." The waiter bowed and left.
Tong Tong picked up the green onions, smelled them, put them on the plate with a look of disgust, and said, "Xinyu, you northerners like to eat green onions... Oh, by the way, you are not from the north."
Jiang Xinyu put a piece of duck meat into the lotus leaf pancake, then added a green onion, smeared it with sweet bean paste, and said: "This is how roast duck should be eaten, it tastes the best!"
"I don't eat green onions... Xinyu, when will you return to Yanjin?"
"Tomorrow."
"oh……"
"What's wrong?"
"Hey, if you go back to Yanjin, it's time for me to go back to Chongqing."
"It would be nice to go back to Chongqing this season."
"Okay...hey, let's have some drinks?"
Seeing Jiang Xinyu's hesitation, Tong Tong immediately added: "Just treat it as my practice wine!"
This reason was irresistible. Jiang Xinyu thought about it and realized that he had nothing else to do anyway, so he said, "Okay, don't drink too much."
Tong Tong went out excitedly, ordered a bottle of bamboo leaf green, took two cups, filled them one by one, and said: "My father said that it is best to eat meat with bamboo leaf green to relieve greasiness!"
As she spoke, she picked up the cup and said: "Wish me a safe journey, cheers!"
"I wish Rongrong will grow more and more beautiful, cheers!"
"I wish you... a happy family, cheers!"
Tong Tong drank three glasses of wine in a row, and while picking up vegetables for Jiang Xinyu, he said, "What should I say if I see Sayuri Yamaguchi?"
Jiang Xinyu thought for a moment and said, "I estimate that she may come to you and either deny that He Yuanwei is her disguise, or give a reasonable explanation."
"Then, should I believe it or not?"
"Doubtful!"
"Doubtful?"
"Yes, this is the best reaction."
"oh……"
"Also, you can also ask her to keep your secret!"
"What secret?"
Jiang Xinyu pointed at Tongtong, then at himself, and said: "The secret between men and women!"
Tong Tong was stunned for a while, and quickly understood what Jiang Xinyu meant. With their relationship, appearing in the same hotel, it is easy for people to think of an affair between a man and a woman.
"The problem is, there is no secret in the first place..." Tong Tong sighed softly, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Tongtong drank more than half of a bottle of wine.
…………
the next day.
Sanhe Hotel.
"Mr. Jiang, I have a call for you." The boss said outside the door.
Jiang Xinyu opened the door, walked quickly downstairs, came to the counter, reached out and picked up the phone: "Hello, who is this?"
The boss hid early. From what happened yesterday, he could tell that Mr. Jiang had a lot of background.
"I called you last night, but you weren't there. Where did you go to relax?" Director Mao's voice came on the phone.
"Oh, I went out to eat and came back late,"
"Xinyu, I want to remind you that it is understandable to associate with one or two beauties, but it should be done in moderation!"
"Don't worry, I know what's appropriate."
"That's good. Oh, at noon today, you don't have to go anywhere. Come and have a casual meal with me. I will send a car to pick you up then."
"clear."
"Also, how did I hear that there was a fugitive in the hotel where you stayed?"
"Commander, that person has escaped. I suspect that he is one of our insiders!"
"Insider?"
"It is probably related to that batch of materials of unknown origin."
"can you?"
"Think about it, if I cut off other people's financial opportunities, they will definitely look for opportunities to retaliate!"
Director Mao snorted coldly and said: "Retaliation? Let me lend him some courage! Let's do this. We will discuss it in detail when we meet at noon!"
"yes."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xinyu was about to go upstairs when he suddenly remembered Quanjude. He waved to the boss and said, "I want to ask you something."
"You say."
"Who is the eldest lady?"
"Which lady?"
"Didn't you say that everyone in Peiping knows about the eldest lady? You don't know?"
The boss thought for a while and then said: "You mean Miss Ju, right?"
"Who is Miss Fu?"
"Seeing as you are also from the palace, do you still know who Miss Ju is? She is the commander-in-chief's daughter. People call her the eldest lady in private. There is only such a eldest lady in Beiping City!"
Jiang Xinyu suddenly realized that of course he knew who Miss Ju was, but he had never met her.
