Night falls.
In the bustling metropolis of Shanghai, thousands of lights are brightly lit. At the Baiyan Restaurant branch in Shanghai, Chi Nan leaned quietly on the counter, playing with the mobile phone in his hand lazily.
"Mr. Chi, someone is looking for you."
A waiter came over with a plate.
Chi Nan raised his head casually and asked, "Who is looking for me?"
The waiter pointed behind him and said, "It's that boy. He asked for a private room, but all the private rooms in our restaurant are full."
Chi Nan looked around, and her complexion suddenly changed slightly. A bright smile appeared on her beautiful face. After seeing clearly that the person coming was Tang Xiu, she said to the waiter: "Go and clean up the VIP room on the fourth floor immediately. Prepare to drink. The best drinks and dishes are prepared like VIP treatment. Go quickly.”
"Dignified guest?"
The waiter was stunned for a moment, turned around and looked at Tang Xiu and the others in surprise, and then trotted away.
Chi Nan came to Tang Xiu and others with a smile. Although she had clearly seen Kang Xia's beautiful appearance and was a little surprised in her heart, she still said with a smile: "Welcome, bosses, do you need private rooms?"
Tang Xiu smiled and said: "Chi Nan, please arrange a VIP room on the fourth floor for us! They are all our own."
Chi Nan was startled, and then said with a smile on his face: "Boss, I have already sent people to prepare."
Tang Xiu nodded with a smile and said: "Let me introduce you, she is Kang Xia, general manager of Shengtang Group. This is Su Quan, my brother who grew up with me and now also works for Shengtang Group. She is Chi Nan, manager of Shanghai Baiyan Restaurant branch."
Chi Nan smiled and stretched out his hand and said: "Hello Kang Xia, since we are all of the same family, please call me Sister Nan Nan! How about I call you Xia Xia?"
"this… "
Kang Xia hesitated for a moment, then shook hands with Chi Nan, nodded and looked at Tang Xiu, confused: "Boss, what is going on?"
Tang Xiu smiled and said: "I am the boss of Shengtang Group and also the boss of Baiyan Restaurant. It's that simple."
Kang Xia was surprised: "Are you really the owner of Baiyan Restaurant? How is this possible? As far as I know, Baiyan Restaurant has been in business for decades, you..."
Tang Xiu waved his hand to interrupt her, and said with a smile: "There are some things you don't know yet, but maybe you will know them later! Okay, let's not talk about this. This time our fairy brew can cause a sensation at the wine tasting conference , it means that Immortal Brew is about to become famous. I will celebrate your success in advance."
When Kang Xia saw that Tang Xiu didn't say anything more, she also refrained from asking any more questions. For her, it was an unexpected surprise to be able to be with Tang Xiu now.
VIP room on the fourth floor.
After several people entered the spacious VIP room under the leadership of Chi Nan, Su Quan's eyes widened and he looked around at the environment inside. Then he came to the window and looked at the bustling streets outside. He couldn't help but sigh. : "It's so luxurious. I've been to many restaurants, but this is the first time I've been to such a luxurious restaurant."
Chi Nan smiled and said: "This is the VIP room of our Baiyan Restaurant. It is not usually open to the public. Except for a few VIPs from Baiyan Restaurant and our own people, outsiders are not allowed to come here."
Su Quan smiled and said: "It seems that we still take advantage of the big boss!"
The employees of Shengtang Group were also a little shocked at this time. Although they all knew that Tang Xiu was the big boss of Shengtang Group, they knew very little about this hands-off boss. Now they finally understand that it's not that the big boss doesn't care about the company's situation, but that his business is not just a company of Shengtang Group, and he is simply too busy.
Tang Xiu smiled and waved his hands and said, "Everyone, sit down!"
Kang Xia had quick eyes and quick hands, and personally opened the seat for Tang Xiu, and then sat down next to Tang Xiu with a smile.
Chi Nan did not take his seat, but said: "Boss, Mr. Ji has arrived in Shanghai. I learned that you went to Guangyang Province a few days ago, so I didn't notify you. Do you think... when will you be free to see her?"
Tang Xiu pondered for a moment and said, "Let her wait. The person I'm waiting for hasn't arrived in Shanghai yet. I'll contact her when they arrive."
"good!"
Chi Nan smiled slightly, nodded and said.
soon.
Fine wines and delicacies from Baiyan Restaurant were delivered one after another. The fragrant aroma of vegetables and rice made everyone's appetites whet their appetites. This meal took two hours to finish. During the dinner, Kang Xia drank a little wine, and her beautiful face was flushed, and she looked a little more charming and cute.
"Boss, can you accompany me to see the night view of Shanghai?"
After leaving the restaurant, Kang Xia followed Tang Xiu and whispered.
"good!"
Tang Xiu did not refuse. Kang Xia was his confidant and favorite general, so he could still meet this requirement. After sending Su Quan and others away, Tang Xiu looked at Chi Nan and said with a smile, "You go back and do your work! I'll take Kang Xia around."
Chi Nan looked at Kang Xia strangely and asked with a smile: "Boss, how about you drive my car away?"
Tang Xiu waved his hand and said, "No need. Although it's fine to drive after drinking some alcohol, it still falls under the category of drunk driving. Let's take a taxi!"
"good!"
Chi Nan agreed, turned around and walked towards the restaurant.
Tang Xiu then looked at Kang Xia and asked with a smile: "Where do you want to go? When I first arrived in Shanghai, I went shopping here with my classmates. After all, it is a big city and it is very nice."
Kang Xia smiled and said: "How about we go to the Bund to see it? I want to see the night view of the Huangpu River. By the way, it would be better if we could take a passenger boat for a night cruise on the Huangpu River."
"All right!"
Tang Xiu nodded, and after intercepting a taxi, the two of them quickly came to the Huangpu River Passenger Ship Ticket Office, bought tickets, and accompanied Kang Xia for a tour in the Huangpu River before leaving the ship and returning to the shore. side. Strolling in the crowd, Kang Xia and Tang Xiu walked side by side. Finally, Kang Xia hesitated and reached out to hold Tang Xiu's wrist.
Tang Xiu glanced at her and said with a faint smile, "You seem to have questions all the time. You still want to know how I became the owner of Baiyan Restaurant?"
Kang Xia said with a smile: "What I want to ask is not how you became the owner of Baiyan Restaurant, but I want to ask, Chi Nan seems to have an unusual relationship with you."
Tang Xiu was stunned for a moment, then he laughed dumbly and said: "You are not doubting that we have a male-female relationship, right?"
Kang Xia said: "No. How should I put it, you seem to be very close, and she respects you very much. That kind of respect does not seem to be perfunctory on the surface, but comes from the heart. Even in front of you, she even hides it He is very good, but I can also observe the hint of... flattery he occasionally shows."
The smile on Tang Xiu's face slowly disappeared. He stood by the Huangpu River, looking at the dimly lit river reflecting the lights, and said calmly: "Kang Xia, you are observing very carefully. But you didn't realize that her attitude towards you is also a little... Abnormal?"
Kang Xia said: "I found out, she doesn't treat me like it's the first time, but is as close as an old friend. This is something I can't understand."
Tang Xiu turned around and looked at her head-on, looking at the watery halo in her bright eyes, and said seriously: "How are you doing with the cultivation techniques I taught you?"
Kang Xia said: "I haven't felt the Qi you mentioned yet."
Tang Xiu said: "You didn't feel that kind of qi, but she has already cultivated the true qi. Although she has not yet embarked on the real journey of cultivation, she may be able to learn it in the future. Baiyan Restaurant, all core members They are all my own people. What I mean by my own people is that my orders are above all else. Even if I ask them to commit suicide immediately in front of me, they will execute it immediately."
Kang Xia was shocked. She looked at Tang Xiu in disbelief and asked, "Boss, are there still such...loyal people in this world?"
Tang Xiu said: "They are different! Their lives do not just belong to themselves."
Kang Xia shook his head and said: "Boss, I don't agree with what you said. Their lives are in their hands, and they will walk their own path in the future. How could it be like what you said... "
Tang Xiu interrupted her and said confidently: "Their road has actually come to an end. Unless they grow old in obscurity, they will follow my footsteps with great vigor. I will give them their lives in the future. You must also use it to be loyal to me.”
Kang Xia was surprised: "You gave it? How did you give it?"
Tang Xiu smiled faintly and said: "Have you forgotten what I told you when I taught you the cultivation method? By becoming stronger, you can extend your life. If they can cultivate to the realm I expect, their life span will be much longer in the future. Quite! Not just them, but also you, ever since you learned the techniques I taught you, your life is already mine."
Kang Xia was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, "My soul and my body are both yours."
"Forehead… "
Tang Xiu was stunned, suddenly thinking of the ecstasy scene he had with Kang Xia, and his lower abdomen suddenly felt hot.
"Kang Xia, I..."
Tang Xiu opened his mouth.
Kang Xia raised her jade finger, gently covered Tang Xiu's lips, and chuckled: "I know, you said you couldn't give me the status that a normal couple can have. But I don't mind, as long as I can be in your heart If I occupy some status, I will be satisfied.”
Tang Xiu sighed in his heart, put his arm around her shoulders, and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go somewhere else!"
Kang Xia nodded slightly and said nothing. Her eyes flashed with strange colors, and no one knew what she was thinking.
After a while.
Kang Xiacai said softly: "I know there is a store nearby. How about going with me to buy some clothes?"
Tang Xiu smiled and said, "Okay! In addition to clothes, are there any other items for sale in the store? I'm going to buy a laptop. These days, people who don't understand computers will be said to be illiterate."
Kang Xia said in surprise: "You don't understand computers?"
Tang Xiu said: "I can use simple operations, but not the more difficult ones. There used to be computer classes in junior high school and high school. But the things I learned at that time were very simple. In fact, I don’t even use my smartphone for very long!”
