He was eating a dish from Country Z. The light seasoning was more suitable for the Nordic taste and looked very exquisite.
While eating, he happily talked to the person opposite him: "By the way, you said you wanted to introduce me to a friend. Has your friend not arrived yet?"
The person sitting opposite him saw the figure of a girl walking in from the corner of his eye. He raised the corner of his mouth and said in a gentle and elegant voice, "She's here."
…
As soon as Qiao Nian entered, she heard Lu Zhi calling her: "Here."
She raised an eyebrow and saw the only table of patrons in the restaurant.
"No need, I'm here to look for someone. I've already seen them." Qiao Nian said to the waiter and walked towards the window.
Lu Zhi's appearance is conspicuous enough.
Even people who didn't notice his outstanding appearance at first glance would notice the wheelchair he was sitting in. In short, it was difficult to ignore him.
Qiao Nian saw that there was a person sitting opposite him, a foreigner, who was looking at him curiously.
Her eyes darkened, she pursed her lips and walked over.
Lu Zhi waited for her to come over, smiled slightly, and introduced her to him: "Mr. Martin, this is the friend I want to introduce to you today, Qiao Nian."
Martin…
Qiao Nian's eyes narrowed, not forgetting that Feng Yucai had mentioned this name to her half an hour ago.
She looked at the foreign man in front of her, paused, and politely extended her hand: "Hello, I'm Qiao Nian."
Martin looked at her for a long time without moving his eyes away, and didn't even reach out to say hello. Instead, he stared at the girl's eyes tightly, as if he saw someone else through these unruly eyes.
"Mr. Martin." Lu Zhi was slightly displeased, but he was not a person who showed his emotions, so he just called out softly. Martin suddenly came back to his senses, and stared at Qiao Nian's face with a strange look. After a long time, he stretched out his hand and shook it politely. Then he said casually: "I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person. Your eyes are so special, I thought I saw an old friend. I'm very sorry, Miss Qiao, please don't mind."
With his status and position, he was willing to explain and apologize to a strange girl purely for Lu Zhi's sake.
Qiao Nian also understood this and did not insist on it. He responded and said that he did not mind. Then he found a seat and sat down, and ordered a cup of warm water from the waiter.
Seeing her sitting next to him, Lu Zhi felt a little better and asked her in a low voice: "Do you want to eat something else? The spicy chicken here is good."
"I ate something when I came here, and I can't eat anymore." Qiao Nian turned him down.
Lu Zhi did not insist on ordering any dishes. Instead, he called the waiter to order her a cup of hot cocoa. The waiter was very quick and brought the juice and hot cocoa almost at the same time.
Qiao Nian didn't want to reject his good intention, so she picked up the cup of hot cocoa and took a sip.
Hot cocoa isn't bad.
Especially the drinks in this kind of shop must be carefully prepared.
Qiao Nian had no appetite.
She had just finished a meal, and if she drank this sweet drink, she wouldn't find it very delicious, but would just make her stomach uncomfortable.
Qiao Nian took only a small sip, then put the cup down. Suddenly, he looked at Martin with a sharp gaze and asked a question: "Mr. Martin, you just said you recognized the wrong person. You saw an old friend through me. Can you tell me, who is that old friend...?"
