Chapter 285 - 285 Proposal
285 Proposal
Qiao Yanhui’s handsome face tensed up. It wasn’t his fault for being good-looking. He was in an extremely bad mood from being stared at like a monkey. Fortunately, he was already used to it. It was just that his wife was a little jealous, so he hurriedly changed the topic and said, “Let’s go see how Sizhi is doing…”
When they arrived in Green Mountain Nation, Xu Sizhi brought Ji Wu and Yi Li to work. Xu Qing believed that Xu Sizhi would soon establish his faction here. They followed the address Xu Sizhi gave them and came to a street that wasn’t very prosperous. Xu Qing looked at Golden Jade Hall, which was refurbished already, with admiration. Xu Sizhi was really efficient.
“Sister, why are you here?” When Xu Sizhi saw Xu Qing standing in front of the restaurant with an admiring expression, he hurriedly strode forward to welcome her.
“I happened to be strolling around.” Xu Qing felt a little embarrassed. She had always wanted to establish a faction, but every time, her family would be the busiest ones.
“I was going to look for you too. The restaurant’s renovation is about to be done. Sister, when are we opening?” Xu Sizhi asked.
“The sooner the better!” They couldn’t stay here for long. The sooner they opened, the sooner they could stabilize their business.
“I’ll arrange it now!” Xu Sizhi nodded. Just as he was about to give the order, he heard an arrogant voice from outside the door. “Is this the restaurant that’s opening soon?”
“Yes,” another obviously submissive woman replied.
“It just so happens that I want to try their dishes. If it’s subpar, there’s no need to open for business!” That voice sounded like that of a spoiled and arrogant young lady!
Xu Sizhi frowned slightly, but didn’t intend to pay attention to her. After all, because of the renovation, the door was closed. However, in the next second, there was a loud bang. The door of the restaurant was kicked open from the outside, and a petite blue figure appeared in front of everyone.
Xu Sizhi’s expression turned cold.
When the woman saw so many pairs of eyes staring at her, she was a little embarrassed. However, when she thought of her goal, she immediately raised her chin proudly. “I heard that you guys are opening a restaurant. Since you’re opening a restaurant, cook a few dishes for me. If it’s delicious, I’ll protect your restaurant in the future. If it’s not delicious, just close it. The best restaurant in the Imperial City is the Red House Hotel. Don’t embarrass yourselves.”
The corners of Xu Qing’s mouth twitched slightly, and Qiao Yanhui’s expression was also cold.
When the woman saw that no one was paying attention to her, she was instantly a little angry. She finally looked at Qiao Yanhui’s eyes, which were almost above her head, at eye level. When she saw Qiao Yanhui’s stunning face, she was filled with infatuation and admiration.
Xu Qing was dissatisfied and was about to teach her a lesson when the woman turned her gaze to Xu Sizhi. Her eyes lit up again.
Leng Ning’er originally wanted Qiao Yanhui to become her husband, but when she saw Qiao Yanhui holding Xu Qing’s shoulder and the children beside him, who clearly looked like triplets, she immediately eliminated Qiao Yanhui. No matter how attractive this man was and how suitable he was to be her husband, she despised him if he already had a wife and children. She wouldn’t choose a married man. That would be too degrading. Even if the other party abandoned his wife and children, she wouldn’t change her mind. After all, someone who could even abandon his wife and children wasn’t a good person. She couldn’t accept such a trashy man. Then, she turned around and saw Xu Sizhi. He was young and there were no women around him. He was also good-looking, so she was naturally interested in him.
Xu Sizhi was very displeased by this woman’s stare. He frowned and said, “Miss, our restaurant hasn’t opened yet, so we can’t serve you food. As for your kindness, we appreciate it, but we still have to renovate, so please leave.”
“Hello, my name is Leng Ning’er. I’m turning eighteen next year and I’m not engaged yet. What’s your name? Are you married? However, judging from your age, you probably haven’t been married yet…” Leng Ning’er continued speaking.
“Miss.” The maidservant behind Leng Ning’er looked at her in disbelief. She pulled her arm to stop talking. Was this something an unmarried princess of a country should say…
Xu Qing’s eyes flickered. In the Green Mountain Nation, someone who had the surname Leng and was so arrogant was probably from the royal family.
Xu Sizhi’s expression darkened. Before he could say anything, he heard Xue’er gloat. “Wow, Uncle has been proposed to.”
This time, Xu Sizhi’s expression darkened even more.
