An Ruyou turned her head towards Tony with cold eyes, "Just now, there was indeed someone here! Tell me, I am not mistaken. "

"You're not mistaken, this is the place where we met that old man. Ruan Ruan, what's wrong with you? You look very worried."

"Nothing," An Ruyou squeezed out a slight smile, "I was just wondering where that old man went."

"It's noon now and the weather is hot. The old man probably went to take shelter during the summer!"

"I think so. Let's go have a drink as well!"

"Girls don't drink casually, but I'll buy you cool fruit juice." Tony made a gesture of invitation.

An Ruyou smiled and walked towards the restaurant.

Tony looked at her back and felt that An Ruyou looked more and more like Qiao Ruoyou, for no reason at all. But maybe he was just being paranoid, since he had only just met these two girls.

Entering the restaurant, the comfortable air conditioning caused the surface of his body to cool down rapidly, causing him to feel goosebumps all over his body.

"Let's sit by the window. If we can see the scenery, the temperature shouldn't be too low." Tony pulled out a chair and invited An Ruyou to sit.

"Thank you."

After ordering, the fresh fruit juice was first served. The fresh tropical fruit had an alluring tint to it, making it appetizing once more. He picked up the cup and clinked it against the ice cubes.

It was a beautiful afternoon, and there were always annoying flies that came to disturb others' good moods.

Feng Ling at the door made a melodious sound as the visitor pushed open the door, but the person who came in following such a voice only made people lose their appetite — Xiao Ling, the other person was also someone they were familiar with, Qiao Ruoan.

They snuggled close to each other, holding each other's arms as if they were a young couple who had just finished cultivating.

Qiao Ruoan pretended innocence as he walked into the hall behind Xiao Ling.

It was lunchtime, and the already popular restaurant's seats were running out of customers.

Xiao Ling said to the waiter who came to receive him, "Go and find a quiet place."

The waiter lowered his head apologetically, "Apologies sir, there are no available seats in the restaurant, can I help you put the tables?"

"So annoying. I'm here for a date, not to eat in the cafeteria. What's the point of squeezing people?" Qiao Ruoan started to complain.

"But An An, didn't you want to eat at this shop for a long time?!" Xiao Ling comforted Qiao Ruoan.

"It's all your fault, it's all your fault, we didn't reserve him in advance," Qiao Ruoan jumped and shouted at the waiter. "Do you know who he is? He is the Vice President of the Shaw's, and I am the successor of the Qiao Family. You must, immediately find a quiet place for us to sit. "

There were already many customers looking at them. The waiter's face was flushed red, not knowing how to explain this to these two that he could not afford to offend.

"Ru Lang, we're almost done eating. Why don't we call them over first!" Tony asked for An Ruyou's opinion. "The waiter has been busy the whole morning, so he should be tired as well."

Actually, even if Tony was not mentioned, An Ruyou still had this intention. Since she could help the waiter and even meet these two old friends of her, why not?

Tony held out his hand and said, "We're almost done eating. If you don't mind, come and sit down."

The waiter looked at Tony as if he was looking at a lifesaver. "Sir, miss, what do you think?"

"Alright!" Qiao Ruoan unwillingly followed the waiter, and muttered to Xiao Ling, "What lousy restaurant is this, even people with status like ours can't serve it well, do I have to rely on poor people to earn money?"

Her unreasonable words were heard by a lot of customers along the way, causing Xiao Ling to feel embarrassed, "An An, don't be angry, it will be great if we eat in the restaurant you want."

Although Xiao Ling was also a phoenix among men, but a European style appearance like Tony was naturally outstanding amongst the crowd. When Qiao Ruoan saw such a handsome guy whose eyeballs were about to fall onto the dishes, he said, "Hello, it's fate to meet you. Excuse me, are you an actor? I think I've seen you somewhere. "

Although Tony was a kind-hearted person, he was also able to distinguish between right and wrong. Naturally, he didn't want to chat with such a domineering and bullying woman. "Miss, you must have recognized the wrong person. I'm not an actress. This is the first time we've met."

Xiao Ling felt a little awkward. After all, it was a very humiliating thing for a girlfriend to sit in front of him and chat with other men. "An An, what do you want to eat?"

When An Ruyou heard his pet name for Qiao Ruoan, she suddenly became absent-minded. In the days that they had known each other, compared to the normal things, Xiao Ling had never called her intimately before, or used a child-like tone to talk to her. She suddenly remembered that after fainting and being teased by doctors as to that Xiao Ling was her boyfriend, maybe someone like Xiao Ling was seen to be considerate and considerate by others, even though she was still a friend now. In the future, she would definitely become a competent boyfriend, but towards Qiao Ruoyou, Xiao Ling was like a close partner, even the love she showed her was just a show to deceive her.

Qiao Ruoan carried the menu, pretended to be unaware of the world, and asked Tony: "Big brother, do you have any recommended dishes? We just arrived, so we don't know what's best for us."

Tony felt strange but didn't think much about it. After all, the real boyfriend was sitting right next to him. "I think lobster noodles are great. What do you think?"

An Ruyou was still deep in her thoughts and gritting her teeth, when she was suddenly shocked by the number of people calling him. Her fork did not land firmly on the edge of her plate, "Hmm, I also think that the lobster noodles are very delicious, and the mussels are also quite good.

Qiao Ruoan originally wanted to chat with Tony, but after An Ruyou said a bunch of things that made her extremely unhappy, she said, "You can tell that she's a pretty girl from your family with just a glance. You can't even hold a fork properly and you'll seduce a man."

If it was the Qiao Ruoyou from the past, she would definitely hold it in for the sake of her adoptive father and mother, but everything was different now. The person standing in front of her was a complete stranger, An Ruyou.

With a chuckle, he placed the knife and fork on the table, "Then, young lady, you must be a lady of a noble family chatting with other men in front of your boyfriend. I'm really impressed by you today."

Qiao Ruoan opened his mouth wide, but could not say a single word to refute his.

Xiao Ling was also stunned. He raised his head and carefully sized up the bold girl sitting next to him. From his angle, he could see the exquisite fur and slender eyelashes on the girl's face.

"Xiao Ling, look at her bullying me."

Hearing Qiao Ruoan's words, Xiao Ling felt a headache, this had almost become a fixed prelude to Qiao Ruoan's one cry one after another. If he was not comforted properly, Xiao Ling would have to live through one round of torture with the demon notes in his ears.

"An An, we came here to eat, it's not good for our health to be angry before eating, be obedient."

An Ruyou was extremely familiar with this Qiao Ruoan who had grown up with her. The best way to resolve a conflict between her and him was to not refute or explain. Otherwise, she would only become more and more energetic.

In her heart, only this husband and wife who had rescued her from an orphanage was the most important. This idea was a little biased, but because the Qiao Family couple was normally too busy, they did not have the time and opportunity to interact with this child. Part of the reason why she chose this child was because she was very obedient, and what they needed was such a obedient child to help them with the company's matters in the future.

Also because of the living environment, the term precocious is most appropriate to describe her. It always gave people a feeling of maturity that was inconsistent with one's age. To others, it was something very strange, even to the extent that her teacher had said the same thing in the beginning. However, after receiving Qiao Ruoyou's family background, she didn't say anything more about it. In primary school, children were supposed to be very fun, so even though they were bound by their natural instincts by the good upbringing of their families, when they met a group of people their age, they could no longer suppress their natural instincts. At this time, those children who never took the initiative to look for other children, or even those who took the initiative to look for other children, would turn around and leave. They didn't pay any attention to her at all, and over time, those children who didn't like anything naturally didn't want to play with her anymore.

Even for a while, the other kids would call her "Weirdo", but they would just ignore her. Teacher Wang thought that she had autism, but in class, she would show a different kind of vivacity. It was not that she would raise her hand and take the initiative to answer a question. Rather, when the teacher asked a question, Qiao Ruoyou would be extremely excited, especially on those questions.

It wasn't as if he hadn't looked for the form teacher back then, but the child's next sentence was, "Teacher, as long as my grades are good, won't I be alright?" As for the rest, there's no need for Teacher to worry. Thank you for your concern, but I'm fine. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first. " An Ruyou's attitude was not exactly good, but because of their family background, their teacher did not say anything, those who studied here were either rich or noble, he just said that the difference was how much their family's power was lacking.

"I don't, just anyone can point and point at me, can you? You put my Qiao Family anywhere, and you, Xiao Ling, anywhere. I can't just swallow this down easily."

An Ruyou snorted, she leisurely picked up her napkin and wiped her mouth, "Miss Jo, if you keep shouting like that, the cooked prawn crabs on the plate will know who the two of you are, and they will lose the bearing of a lady from a noble family." An Ruyou purposely enunciated the words "noble daughter" extremely clearly. Tony, who was at the side, could not hold back and burst out laughing.

Qiao Ruoan was so angry that he almost went mad, standing up, he pointed at An Ruyou's nose and said, "You, don't go too far!"

"How could a little family like mine have the ability to bully others? Shouldn't I give you a seat after I finish eating?" An Ruyou stood up, "Please take a seat Miss Jo."

Tony picked up his jacket and followed An Ruyou out to settle the bill, secretly giving him a big thumbs up, "Ru Lang, you were so cool just now, I wanted to stop and applaud you.

"Why do you ask?" An Ruyou was a little nervous.

"There aren't many girls like you who can help out when they see injustice. That's why I'm guessing if you've met each other before." Tony shrugged.
