Chapter 49: Chapter 49: Meeting on a Narrow Path (1)

Their contact had been brief, and there was little they knew about each other. For the sake of future cooperation, they should definitely interact more.

With this in mind, Gu Nuan asked, "Where shall we eat?"

"Brother usually likes dining at Dihao Restaurant. He’s a diamond member there." Not sure if it was Xiao Yebai’s instructions, Zang Xiaolian suddenly changed his tune, "If sister-in-law doesn’t like it, brother said it’s fine for sister-in-law to choose the place. As long as sister-in-law is happy."

Gu Nuan’s lips curled slightly as she said, "The places where I dine, let’s not talk about whether your brother is used to them or not, the people who dine with your brother, they’ll definitely not be used to it."

Zang Xiaolian had to think for a moment before he understood what she was implying, and he started to feel embarrassed. "About last time, sister-in-law shouldn’t mind, we really didn’t mean to follow— and definitely not—" He couldn’t bring himself to say the words "stalking maniac," as that would be too humiliating.

"That’s a minor issue." Knowing they couldn’t possibly be called "stalking maniacs," Gu Nuan said, "Rather than whether you were following me or not, didn’t you find it strange that you were drinking milk tea at that milk tea shop that day?"

Zang Xiaolian was indeed slow to catch on. That day, besides somewhat tracking and observing Gu Nuan, they hadn’t done anything else and certainly nothing illegal; each just ordered a cup of milk tea.

Of course, the milk tea shop in that area wasn’t going to have anything delicious to offer. The tea was filled with saccharin, and in the end, the shop owner was scolded to death by Xiao Yebai.

You can charge a little more for your products, but don’t sell these life-threatening food items.

Xiao Yebai scolded like that, infuriating the milk tea shop owner to the point of smoking from his seven orifices.

It was the case of a rich master who, wherever he went, could say a few words that would take someone’s breath away in an instant.

With this hint from Gu Nuan, Zang Xiaolian half understood and sheepishly said to her, "Sister-in-law, brother is actually a good person. If you spend more days with brother, you will definitely understand."

Whether he’s a good person or not remains to be seen. But that mouth of his, wherever it goes, is bound to offend everyone.

So, considering this, it’s better to go with his preference and dine at his usual spot. Presumably, the staff there who serve him are already immune to his vitriol, so there’s no need to worry that the meal will end unpleasantly.

They put the luggage in the car and set off to the hotel for lunch.

Dihao Restaurant is five-star rated and has some fame in this city, ranking among the top three grand restaurants. Gu Nuan had never been inside. However, she had passed by the restaurant’s main road more than once with Wa Zicong.

Wa Zicong had once asked her: "What do you think about holding our wedding reception here someday?"

She thought Wa Zicong was joking. With their capabilities, hosting a wedding reception here would cost at least several hundred thousand at one meal. With that kind of money, it’d be better to pay off the mortgage early.

Wa Zicong was inherently a man of great ambition.

Once, she had been attracted to his eagerness to learn and his diligence. In other words, just like many women these days when choosing a partner, they think that although the man may not have money now, considering his potential, he should be well-off in the future and won’t let his woman suffer.

The problem was, she and many other women had forgotten one thing.

Many men can suffer with a woman, but they can’t share the good times.

The number of men who make money and then abandon their wives to run off with mistresses is countless.

Thinking this, Gu Nuan felt she was rather lucky. This man had shown his true colors early on, which was better than marrying him and having children, only for him to find a mistress later.

The BMW drove into the underground parking garage of Dihao. This place wasn’t accessible to all the customers dining at Dihao. Only the VIP members could enjoy the parking service here, as it was located in the city center, a prime location where real estate was exceedingly expensive. Parking spots were incredibly hard to come by, so much so that securing one could be more expensive than buying a house.
