An Nan withdrew her gaze from the window and looked at the dishes in front of her, smiling slightly: "These are all my favorites."
"Hmm, as long as you like it, go ahead and eat. You’ve been flying for so long, you must be hungry."
They continued eating together, occasionally exchanging a few words and smiling at each other.
From beginning to end, this scene was fully observed by a few people.
Not far from An Nan’s table, Lin Mubai and Han Xiayang stood side by side facing Zhan Yiqi, with Xi Shaoqi and Huo Boxuan opposite them. Today, Huo Boxuan had brought the Huo Family here to apologize; recently, the Huo Family had been continuously facing setbacks, even losing deals to others.
He knew well that someone was causing trouble, but he didn’t know who it was.
The company couldn’t continue developing , so he had to place his only hope on his two old friends.
Whether it was Mr. Lin or the third young master of the Xi Family, if either would say a few words for him, the Huo Family could overcome this crisis, which led to tonight’s dinner.
Originally, he wanted to go to the ’Champs Elysees,’ but Xi Shaoqi insisted on coming to this restaurant, so here they were.
From the beginning of the meal until now, whenever he mentioned the company’s issues, the three people in front of him would change the subject. The meal was almost over, and today’s purpose hadn’t been achieved yet, leaving Huo Boxuan sweating profusely in anxiety.
What to do? What exactly should he do?
If the company continues losing deals , bankruptcy is the only outcome. His hard-won company was like his child; how could he stand by and watch it go bankrupt?
Steeling his heart, Huo Boxuan decided to take desperate measures.
"Mubai, Shaoqi, can you help me with my company issues?"
Silent all around, Xi Shaoqi continued focusing on his chopsticks, leaving Huo Boxuan’s hopes with him shattered. He could only look toward the two people opposite, only to find their eyes fixed on another direction, following their gaze, he spotted hope.
Simultaneously calling out, "An Nan."
Upon hearing the familiar name, Xi Shaoqi directly threw his chopsticks onto the table, stood up sharply, scanned the restaurant, and successfully spotted someone.
A joyful smile immediately surfaced on his lips, and he called loudly in a certain direction: "An Nan."
An Nan, facing the other way, didn’t hear someone calling her clearly. However, Zhan Yiqi sitting opposite her glanced at Xi Shaoqi’s side and then said to An Nan: "An Nan, do you know that person over there?"
The man looked somewhat familiar, but Zhan Yiqi had no extra impressions of where he’d seen him.
An Nan had already turned around, looking in the direction Zhan Yiqi pointed, seeing those familiar figures, she was slightly taken aback before smiling and nodding. Google seaʀᴄh NoveI[F]ire.net
"Someone you know?" These people clearly had an extraordinary demeanor; how could they know An Nan, Zhan Qiyi was full of doubts.
An Nan withdrew her gaze, nodded toward the person opposite her: "Hmm, met a few times, friends of friends, not very familiar."
"Do you want to go over and say hello?"
Should she go over and greet them? An Nan hesitated a moment in her heart but declined: "No need, let’s continue eating."
Zhan Qiyi also wanted to continue eating calmly, as it was rare to meet this woman before him at all. Yet, someone didn’t seem to want him to have his way.
