Chapter 51: Chapter 51: All the side dishes she didn’t like were gone Chapter 51: Chapter 51: All the side dishes she didn’t like were gone From a distance of several meters, Tang Yiting was hopping up and down with a face full of gossip, waving her hands, “Qiaoqiao, you’re finally here!
Hurry, hurry, tell me all about the face-slapping details at the academic affairs office.”
Li Qiao strolled leisurely to the parking spot, nodded to Wen Shi as a greeting, and then directly took out her car keys, “Let’s go, Crystal Garden.”
Tang Yiting’s burning gossip soul was doused with a bucket of cold water.
Shouldn’t she share the joy of triumphing over the scum first?
Li Qiao got into her car on her own and then started the engine, leaving the parking lot first.
And after being reminded by Wen Shi, Tang Yiting reluctantly climbed into her car and hurried to catch up with the Mercedes G-Class.
Half an hour later, at Crystal Garden.
Li Qiao, accompanied by Tang Yiting and Wen Shi, entered the lobby.
The lavishness of the Royal Villa made Tang Yiting unconsciously cling to Li Qiao’s arm, “Boss, you actually have a pass to Crystal Garden?”
Li Qiao ignored her and had only taken a few steps when an employee dressed in courtly attire approached them with enthusiasm, “Miss Li, welcome back, please follow me.”
The three of them were led by the server to the Yiwan Residence private room.
While waiting for tea to be served, Tang Yiting squirmed in her seat and leaned towards Li Qiao, asking sneakily, “Ancestor, clue me in, when did you get the pass for this place?”
As far as she knew, even as one of the Five Giants of the South Sea, only her own father from the Tang family qualified to dine in Crystal Garden, and despite her age, she had only heard of it without ever seeing it.
Today, she actually walked in alive.
Tang Yiting silently took out her phone, ready to show off on her Moments, Weibo, Oasis, Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter!
Meanwhile, Wen Shi, who had been silent all the way, now looked at Li Qiao with probing eyes.
In response, Li Qiao lazily lifted her eyelids, giving a cryptic answer, “I don’t have one.”
I…” Tang Yiting’s face was full of shock as she pointed to her nose, “Could I be kicked out?”
Li Qiao glanced at her indifferently, “You shouldn’t be.”
With that said, Tang Yiting didn’t bother to question anymore and raised her phone to start snapping photos all around the room.
Wen Shi sat opposite Li Qiao, looked at the lavish decor of Yiwan Residence, and after a hesitant glance around, his gaze fell on Li Qiao, “Do you come here often?”
“I’ve been here once.” At this moment, the server returned to the room with a blue and white porcelain teapot and after pouring the tea for them, he politely said to Li Qiao, “Miss Li, shall we start serving the dishes now?”
Li Qiao nodded, and the server respectfully smiled and left the room.
After all the dishes were served, six entrees and three soups, each prepared to the standards of royal court cuisine.
Tang Yiting, who rarely saw such extravagance, didn’t stop taking photos with her phone, while Wen Shi slightly restrained tea.
Only Li Qiao seemed to have a complex and peculiar look in her eyes as she gazed at the dishes and soups.
Because she noticed that all the hot dishes and the soups were missing the usual side ingredients.
Green onion, ginger, garlic, seaweed, red cabbage…
All the sides she didn’t eat were gone.
A conjecture slowly formed in Li Qiao’s heart, and as she lowered her eyelashes, a smile flickered in her eyes.
She opened her phone, went to the WeChat page, and without hesitation sent a message to Shang Yu.
Li Qiao: Master Yan, I really like the dishes you ordered, thank you.
The message page received a one-word reply from the man after a minute: Hmm.
Li Qiao, with her head down and her doe eyes twinkling, typed another sentence: I’m heading to Lin City now, what will you have for lunch?
Shang Yu: No matter, I’ll eat when I arrive.
