Shi Qian hung up the phone and looked at Wen Keer. “Ke’er, let’s have lunch together.”
“Sure,” Wen Ke’er responded with a smile.
“Let’s go out to eat. Sheng Xu and Lu Sizhe will join us.”
Wen Ke’er’s smile froze. And she wore a troubled expression. “What? Young
Master Sheng and Young Master Lu will join us? I think I’ll pass.”
“What’s wrong?” Shi Qian asked.
“They are strangers to me. That would be very uncomfortable. Besides, their characters are too strong. I’m not used to being with them.”
“What strong character? Why don’t I sense anything?!” Shi Qian smiled.
A demon like Master Zhan had a powerful character. Sometimes, a look from him could scare people away.
“It’s because your character is stronger than theirs. So it wouldn’t trouble you. I’ll go to the school cafeteria with Weiwei and the others.”
Wen Ke’er laughed dryly and continued. “Qianqian, you can go. I’m okay. But 1 really can’t go with you. Let’s have lunch next time.”
Wen Ke’er showed an unwavering decline. Shi Qian did not force her anymore.
Shi Qian walked towards the school gate alone after class.
Sheng Xu and Lu Sizhe waited already for her at the gate.
Shi Qian arrived, and they drove Sheng Xu’s car to Baili Xi’s grilled fish restaurant on the food street.
The restaurant crew’s last encounter with them was peaceful, and they were not as nervous when they saw them.
However, the three still occupied the most vast private room.
Shi Qian looked at the ten-person or more private room. “Why is it this again?” “Could it not suit your desire?” The waiter immediately asked. We have more rooms to choose from if you’re dissatisfied. Would you like to change it to something else?”
Shi Qian was in a daze.
It wasn’t that she wasn’t satisfied. The waiter would always bring them to the most colossal. She couldn’t understand why. Just the three of them in the vast private room?
Sheng Xu said, “We don’t need a big room. We’ll change to a smaller one.”
The waiter immediately said, “Okay, then please follow me upstairs. There’s a small room upstairs.”
The three left the private room and followed the waiter through the hall and upstairs.
Stairs were on both sides of the building.
Shi Qian, Sheng Xu, and Lu Sizhe reached the restaurant’s second floor and found Zhuang Shuyu, Shi Muxue, and another waiter walk over.
Then, the two groups of people blocked each other at the entrance of the same private room.
The two waiters were flabbergasted!
That was the last private room. That meant one of the groups had to leave.
They could not ask the three ancestors of the four great families to withdraw, so the waiter naturally chose to persuade Zhuang Shuyu and Shi Muxue.
“I’m sorry, but another customer has taken this room already,” The waiter beside Zhuang Shuyu said.
Zhuang Shuyu looked at Shi Qian and her companions. She snorted coldly. “Where? How can I be sure that person just arrived?”
How could she not notice that the waiter couldn’t offend Crown Prince Sheng Xu and the others, so he asked her to give in.
The waiter beside Sheng Xu immediately said, “I’m sorry, Madam. These three people had booked this room in advance. My colleague doesn’t know.”
“I’m sorry,” another waiter said. “I didn’t know that someone had already made a reservation.”
Zhuang Shuyu’s face has turned ashen.
She was stupefied, and before she could continue, Shi Muxue looked at Shi Qian and said gently, “Qianqian, if it were me, I wouldn’t argue. But Director Zhuang is our school’s director and our elder.
“It would be inappropriate for our director and the elders to ask to change places. Can you persuade Young Master Sheng and Young Master Lu to change places instead?”
Shi Qian stared at Shi Muxue’s pretentious and disgusting expression.
Sheng Xu and Lu Sizhe looked at Shi Muxue with detestation. They did not even want to look at her.
Sheng Xu glanced at Lu Sizhe and Shi Qian and said, “Let’s go in..”
