Entering the restaurant, Li Xuexuan was already standing in front of him happily. She was wearing a black evening dress, but it was from the Chanel brand this spring. The famous brand on her body made her look even more glamorous, graceful and luxurious.
But when she saw Shi Zhijian wearing casual clothes, she was immediately stunned. The two people's clothes really didn't match. On the other hand, it showed that Shi Zhijian didn't attach much importance to this date. On the contrary, Li Xuexuan regarded it as a date.
Grand date.
"Is my outfit a little inappropriate?" Shi Zhijian smiled and looked down at his own attire.
Li Xuexuan shook her head, "No, it's just that I rarely see you wearing casual clothes, so you look very fresh."
Shi Zhijian nodded. Li Xuexuan is a smart woman who knows what to say and what not to say.
"It's almost time, let's go there!" Li Xuexuan pointed to the table reserved by Shi Zhijian in advance. "And--" Li Xuexuan smiled, "I want to thank you..."
Before Li Xuexuan could finish her words——
"Yan Xiong helped reserve this restaurant tonight. You and I have to thank him!" Shi Zhijian said first.
Any other woman would definitely have a cold face at this moment. Originally, I wanted to thank you for booking a restaurant to treat me to dinner, but you deliberately passed the credit on to your subordinates. Doesn’t that mean you don’t value me very much?
Lee Seol-hyun once again showed the magnanimity of a smart woman: "You are right! Mr. Yan is really worried tonight! But I still want to thank you. Without your instructions, he would not have done this, no.
?”
Shi Zhijian smiled and looked at Li Xuexuan seriously for the first time: "I surrender!"
Li Xuexuan smiled slightly: "I accept!"
After the first round of fighting, the two of them walked to the dining table by the window and sat down together.
Shi Zhijian turned his face but found that many waiters were looking at him. Come to think of it, Li Xuexuan was a very beautiful woman, and because of her extraordinary background, she was usually very eye-catching, so she would naturally have a lot of interest in the men who came to eat with her.
People are curious.
Since it is a candlelight dinner, of course the candles must be lit.
The hazy feeling of candlelight will make the atmosphere ambiguous.
The French delicacies in front of you, including steaks, salads, delicious soups, etc., are even more stimulating to your appetite.
Shi Zhijian was really hungry after a busy day. He picked up the knife and fork and ate with gusto. Li Xuexuan held her fragrant cheeks and watched Shi Zhijian eat happily, not caring about the surprised look of the waiter.
After finishing a piece of steak, Shi Zhijian put down his knife and fork. He looked up and saw Li Xuexuan's infatuated eyes. He shrugged uncomfortably: "Why don't you eat and are you looking at me doing something?"
"What do you think?" Li Xuexuan picked up a prawn and helped Shi Zhijian peel it. "Seeing you eating it with such relish makes me feel so happy!"
Shi Zhijian felt that Li Xuexuan was "PUA"ing him. How could the dignified eldest daughter of the Li family have such an attitude? She used to wish she would die!
Shi Zhijian smiled and took a sip of red wine: "I'm so happy! I can have Miss Li peel shrimps for me. I feel like my life has reached its peak."
"Really? Since you are so happy, why don't I make a suggestion -" Li Xuexuan put the peeled shrimps on Shi Zhijian's plate and said with a smile: "How about we announce our engagement in the newspaper together? Come on.
Then I can help you peel shrimps every day in an upright manner!"
Shi Zhijian also laughed: "This is a good idea! But I have been very busy with work recently and I really can't get away! Besides, I haven't informed my sister and other family members in Hong Kong yet..."
"Did you not notify us, or did you dare not notify us? Or have you been joking about our affairs?" Li Xuexuan's bright big eyes flashed with a hint of haze, "I know, you have always been wary of me, thinking that I and I
My father has plotted against you! But think about it, which one of us has the most responsibility now? Many people now say that I want to be your concubine Shi Zhijian! Concubine, I, the dignified eldest daughter of the Li family, want to be your concubine
?!"
Shi Zhijian raised his eyebrows: "Why do you care about those people's nonsense? Is this all we can discuss tonight? Can't we have a quiet meal together?"
Li Xuexuan lowered her head and did not dare to say anything more.
Shi Zhijian said: "Remember, before I get the permission of my family, I will not get engaged to you, let alone be my wife, even if you want to be my concubine, it is impossible! Do you understand?
clear?"
Li Xuexuan's face turned a little pale, but she still nodded lightly.
Shi Zhijian knew that these words were a bit excessive, but he knew better that if he did not say so, then the Li family would take the opportunity to ride on him, and he would be very passive by then.
"What, you don't like to hear what I say?"
"No!" Li Xuexuan panicked and hurriedly explained: "I, I just think you are thinking too much... I am the only female in our Li family now, and I will inherit the Li family's business in the future. If I
Marrying you means that the Li family's property will also be yours from now on, but you are overthinking it..."
Shi Zhijian smiled, picked up another shrimp, peeled it, brought it to her, and said: "Am I thinking more, or you are thinking more? Don't think I don't know, besides you, your Lee family has three potential people in Hong Kong.
Heir, to put it bluntly, you are not the only one! And you are a woman! Even if you want all the businesses of the Li family to be named Shi, will your father Li Yaozu be willing?"
Li Xuexuan didn't expect that Shi Zhijian's calculations were so accurate and that he even knew some of the Li family's privacy.
Indeed, she, Li Xuexuan, is not the only heir to the Li family. She also has several cousins and cousins in Hong Kong.
If Li Yaozu had considered the issue of the Li family's bloodline, he would probably have handed over the last business of the Li family to those people to inherit, and all Li Xuexuan could get was the property in Bangkok.
Of course, all this depends on Li Yaozu's thoughts.
But here's the problem.
From the moment Li Yaozu helped Li Zhaotian organize the funeral, Shi Zhijian realized that Li Yaozu was "very nostalgic". To be precise, he had a strong sense of family. He was not the kind of person who would leave the family easily.
This kind of person values friendship the most and is also the most terrifying.
You can even give up everything for the sake of your family!
Of course Li Xuexuan understood the meaning of Shi Zhijian's words, but when he saw that Shi Zhijian was smiling and didn't seem to be really angry, he was relieved. He happily took the prawn, took a small bite, and praised: "You peeled it off."
The fresh shrimps are really delicious.”
Shi Zhijian raised the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "If you like it, I'll peel a few more for you!"
Li Xuexuan nodded happily.
While they were talking, there was a quarrel at the door of the restaurant——
"What do you mean? Why can't we eat here? Don't you know me, Gao Chaohui, Young Master Gao?"
When Shi Zhijian heard this, he looked towards the door.
Li Xuexuan also looked at it.
But I saw a man and a woman standing at the door.
The man wore a neat suit and was tall and muscular. He was Gao Chaohui, the eldest son of the Gao family. He had an angry look on his face at the moment.
The woman was wearing a sky blue skirt. She was quite beautiful. If you look closely, you could see that she was a popular movie star today.
This movie star is called "Ellie". She is young but very talented. Otherwise, she would not have risen to the top in just one year.
It turned out that during this period, Young Master Gao was very frustrated. No matter what he did, he could not compare to Shi Zhijian. He felt like he was being crushed directly under Shi Zhijian's feet. It was a very unpleasant feeling.
In the past, his opponents were people of the same level as the eldest young master of the Xie family and the second young master of the Xie family, and the two sides often fought with each other.
And he has always been called the favored son among the dandies.
But since Shi Zhijian, the unequal Jurassic tyrannosaurus, appeared, he and the two young masters of the Xie family have directly transformed from tigers to cats!
The helpless feeling of being crushed made him completely lose his confidence.
He doesn't have to think about a beauty like Li Xuexuan. It is said that she is about to get engaged to Shi Zhijian. The third lady of the Xie family does not dare to get involved easily now. What if the Xie family gets involved?
In desperation, the frustrated Gao Chaohui began to indulge himself. He spent a lot of money these days and accidentally hooked up with this little star named "Ellie".
Ai Li knows his identity. Now she is actively rising in the entertainment industry, but she lacks a sponsor who is willing to pay for her. There is no doubt that Gao Chaohui is very suitable.
Not only is he rich, but he is also very handsome.
This is the "boyfriend" that many girls dream of.
So Aili used her charm to "pursue" Gao Chaohui. In the past few days, the two of them were inseparable and couldn't be more sweet.
Today, after the two of them came back from a trip to Pattaya, they were hungry and wanted to eat. Gao Chaohui suggested that they come to this famous French Western restaurant. By the way, he also wanted to show off his strength - after all, not everyone can easily go to this restaurant.
I came. Unexpectedly, I was stopped as soon as I arrived at the door.
This is simply unreasonable?
Gao Chaohui never expected that he would be slapped in the face when he wanted to show off, especially with a woman by his side.
"I'm sorry, customer, the owner of our restaurant has told us that we won't be accepting guests tonight. No matter who you are, you can't enter!" the two waiters explained.
"What do you mean you can't enter?" Gao Chaohui saw Shi Zhijian's table from a long distance away. Although he couldn't see the people clearly, he knew they were guests. "Isn't there a guest there? They didn't ask me to enter. It's simply unreasonable!"
"The guests at that table are——"
The waiter was about to explain, but Gao Chaohui roared: "Do you know who I am? I am Gao Chaohui, the eldest son of the Gao family! I have been here many times, and you don't let me in?" Gao Chaohui became angrier as he roared.
.
Ellie next to her pretended to dissuade him: "I don't think so, it's the same if you don't eat here! The people here are all arrogant people! Maybe they don't know you, or they think you are not qualified to be here."
Dining here--"
It was okay if Aili didn't say anything, but Gao Chaohui couldn't bear it anymore when he fanned the flames: "I, Gao Chaohui, have to go in today! Who dares to stop me?" After saying that, he was about to rush in.
Seeing this, the two waiters at the door could only continue to block it with a grimace. Fortunately, the restaurant owner appeared at this time——
"Ah, who did I think it was? It turns out it's Young Master Gao!" The restaurant owner knew Gao Chaohui and scolded the two waiters: "You two are so blind! You don't even recognize Young Master Gao?"
The two waiters felt aggrieved, saying that they couldn't put it in even if the King of Heaven came, but they said to themselves that they were scolding us for being ignorant now.
"Explain to me why I can't bring my girlfriend in for dinner? What do you mean?" When Gao Chaohui saw the owner of the restaurant appear, he immediately felt confident. He put his hands on his hips and gave orders.
"It's like this. Our restaurant is booked tonight, so we can't receive other guests. Please forgive me, Mr. Gao!" The restaurant owner knew that the other party's identity was of great importance, so he immediately explained in a very aggrieved manner.
Gao Chaohui immediately snorted and glared: "Booking the place? Being booked by someone else? Is it possible that the other party is sharper and richer than me? I want to see who he is?" He didn't wait for the restaurant owner to stop him again.
Gotta break in.
The restaurant owner was frightened when he saw this. He knew that Yan Xiong's fierce appearance had already frightened him.
Sure enough, when Yan Xiong saw something happened over there, he immediately prepared to stand up——
Just then——
"Excuse me, please let Mr. Gao come in!" Shi Zhijian said calmly.
The sound was not loud, but everyone heard it clearly.
Especially Gao Chaohui heard it more clearly!
Shi Zhijian was his nightmare, and he could recognize it even after turning into ashes. Of course, he was even more familiar with Shi Zhijian's voice.
Gao Chaohui never expected that the person who reserved the venue would be Shi Zhijian, so his first thought was to turn around and leave!
It's okay for others to say that in front of Shi Zhijian, all he could do was rush into the street.
How does that little star Ellie know this? She has been in and out of Vanity Fair and has seen so much glamor and glamor that she wishes she could be the center of attention every day. She is envied by others in the spotlight and constantly praised. Now she has finally climbed up to the top of Gao Chaohui. Of course,
I don't want to just wait quietly like this.
"Young Master Gao, is he your friend? Since he sincerely invites us, let's go in!" After saying that, Ai Li took Gao Chaohui's hand and happily entered the hall - this time she wanted to show off that she had a great one.
Boy friend.
At this moment, Gao Chaohui regretted it to death. He never dreamed that he would encounter such a situation. At this moment, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and be walked into the restaurant by Ellie's arm.
The restaurant owner didn't expect that Young Master Gao would meet Shi Zhijian, so he breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but look at Shi Zhijian again. Only then did he realize that this young man seemed to be very powerful. Just a simple word made that angry man
Mr. Yan and the tall young man with eyes higher than his head dared not even say a word.
"Did I make a mistake? Who is that young man?" The restaurant owner looked surprised.
Young Master Gao and his girlfriend Ellie walked into the restaurant. Young Master Gao prayed in his heart that he would never face Shi Zhijian. He and Ellie could just sit down at a random table and have a few bites.
But whatever he fears, that's what will happen.
"Young Master Gao, over here! Why don't we share a table? Our food is very good and there are a lot of it! Besides, Seolhyun is here too!"
Shi Zhijian's understatement directly made Gao Chaohui sweat!
What?
Is Lee Seol-hyun also there?
Immediately, Gao Chaohui immediately opened Ai Li's hand, snorted, straightened his chest, and tightened his tie, looking like a gentleman.
