“Don’t the two of you find it boring? How about we go out for some fun!” He Yan sat on the side, watching Zhou Chao and Hou Ting engaged in a lively conversation and couldn’t help but speak up.
“It’s almost 5 o’clock now. Where do you want to go?”
He Yan was a bit exasperated, as her restless nature made it agonizing for her to sit and drink tea.
“How about we go to a nightclub and dance? I saw it on Mou Yin recently, and 1 didn’t even know that Rong City had a dance hall before!” He Yan said, and her eyes seemed to light up with excitement.
“Ahem!” Hou Ting, who was drinking tea at the time, was choked by the tea.
After wiping his mouth with a tissue, he looked at He Yan with a somewhat puzzled expression and asked, “Xiao Yan, you’re not talking about salsa dancing at the dance hall, are you?”
“Wow, how did you know, Brother Hou? Have you been there already?” He Yan didn’t expect Hou Ting, who seemed oblivious to the outside world, to know what she was talking about. Curiosity tinged her face.
“How could 1 possibly go to such a place? You’re not allowed to go there either. It would be nice if you could use your brain before deciding to do something. Please, can you think for once?” Hou Ting scolded her and tapped He Yan’s little head with his index finger.
“What’s so strange about it? Let me check!” He Yan took out her phone and started searching, but soon blushed and threw her phone aside.
“Do you still want to go now?”
He Yan quickly shook her little head, muttering to herself, “I didn’t know it was like that. How could I have gone if 1 knew?”
Hou Ting shook his head and turned to chat with Zhou Chao.
“How long are you planning to stay in Rong City?”
“Just these few days. My wife and the others are coming back from northern Sichuan, probably arriving tomorrow. We’ll take some time to rest, and then I’ll take my wife and go back to Modu!” Speaking of Jiang Li, Zhou Chao’s face was filled with happiness.
“Well, when the time comes, let’s have a meal together and get to know each other!” Hou Ting was curious about what kind of woman could capture Zhou Chao’s heart.
“Sure, I’ll arrange it when the time comes!”
The two of them chatted on until the sun began to set. Unbeknownst to them, He Yan had fallen asleep on the sofa.
Although Zhou Chao didn’t mind having Wang Feng join them for dinner, he also had to consider Hou Ting and He Yan, so he had already arranged things with Wang Feng on the way there.
“Miss He, what brought you here today? Please come inside!” As they entered, they were greeted by a middle-aged man who looked like a manager.
“Manager Xia, is my Uncle Lan here? I’ve brought my friends to support the business today. Let’s have the signature dishes.”
“Of course, I’ll inform the boss. You can sit at your usual spot!” Manager Xia nodded and went to inform the owner.
“Good!” He Yan nodded and led the two inside.
As soon as the three of them were seated, a young waitress, dressed in a uniform, came over carrying a teapot.
“This restaurant has a unique style!” Zhou Chao looked around. There were only two tables for private dining, and there were no private rooms. The table where Zhou Chao and his friends were sitting was by the window, and a gentle evening breeze wafted in.
“Yu Zhi Lan is the only three-diamond Black Pearl private dining in the entire Rong City. They only serve two tables per day, so not many people know about it. But those who do are usually high-profile individuals.”
Zhou Chao nodded and looked forward to the culinary experience that lay ahead.
They didn’t have to wait long. In about half an hour, a young girl in a waitress’ uniform brought out desserts and appetizers. Soon after, hot dishes and snacks followed.
“Try this Hand-Cut Knife-Cut Golden Thread Noodles; it’s the restaurant’s signature dish. Everyone who comes here wants to try it, but not many have had the privilege!” He Yan eagerly introduced the noodle dish placed in the middle of the table.
Zhou Chao picked up his chopsticks and tried a bit.
“Mmm, it’s really delicious, melts in your mouth. Achieving this level of knife skills would take decades.” Zhou Chao couldn’t help but praise the Golden Thread Noodles.
While Zhou Chao was still admiring the dish, Hou Ting had already started eating enthusiastically, not stopping for a moment.
“Save some for me!” Zhou Chao couldn’t resist and started digging in as well.
“Are you heading back to the hotel now, or do you want to go to a bar?” Hou Ting said with a mischievous smile.
“Well, 1 think I’ll skip the bar tonight. You guys go ahead!”
“Alright then, I’ll head back too. And you, He Yan?”
“Since you’re all heading back, I’ll just go home by myself. There’s nothing special for me to do in the bar. Have a good night, everyone!”
After a brief exchange, they all got into their respective cars and drove off in different directions..
