However, Jiang Yao was clearly persistent. Jiang Yao called again just as she hung up the first call.
He would continue calling if she did not answer!
Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows, the corners of her mouth twitching. She licked her lips and took the cell phone back. Without hesitation, she hung up and simply blacklisted Jiang Yao’s number.
The private room fell silent.
Qiao Nian tossed the cell phone back onto the table, picked up the cup of bitter tea on the table with her clean hand, and took a sip. She took her time, her exquisite face expressionless.
Jiang Zongjin only saw her hanging up the phone twice before putting it back. He broke the silence in the room and asked her curiously, “Nian Nian, who called?”
Qiao Nian glanced at him with her dark eyes. She put down her cup and placed her hand casually on her lap. “A harassment call.”
“Oh.”
Jiang Zongjin did not know that those harassment calls would never be able to reach Qiao Nian’s private phone. He automatically assumed that Jiang Yao’s calls were those harassment calls from marketing companies and did not ask further.
It just so happened that the waiter served all the dishes at this time.
The waiter stepped aside and placed his hand in front of him, then said respectfully, “Hello, your dishes are served. Please enjoy.”
Ye Wangchuan finally moved. Like Qiao Nian, he lazily picked up the cup of bitter tea and lowered his head to take a sip. He then put down the teacup and said to the waiter, “You may go. And close the door.”
The waiter did not dare to delay. He immediately responded and quietly went out, closing the door on his way out.
After the waiter left, Ye Wangchuan looked up, his eyes bright and clear. He looked at the middle-aged man sitting opposite him and said politely, “Uncle Jiang, the Jade Salmon in front of you is not bad. Try it.”
“Ah, okay, okay.” Jiang Zongjin did not expect him to be so enthusiastic and even invited him to taste the dishes. He felt a little uncomfortable for a moment. He grabbed the chopsticks in front of him and picked up a piece of fish.
The meat of the salmon itself was more tender than other fish. The culinary skills of the chef in Imperial Mansion were not to be trifled with! The steamed salmon slices were sprinkled with green seasoning. The color was clear and bright. The fish slices tasted sweet. There was a hint of spiciness to the dish as well, but it happened to be a rather light flavor that Jiang Zongjin liked.
Jiang Zongjin’s brows couldn’t help but relax after eating the dishes that suited his taste. He felt much more relaxed and his back was not as tense as before.
Ye Wangchuan recommended a few more dishes to him.
Jiang Zongjin tried them one by one.
He realized that Ye Wangchuan seemed to know his taste very well. Every dish he recommended happened to hit his spot. It was completely to his liking.
In a short period of time, Jiang Zongjin already had a good impression of him.
They were not as polite and distant as before as they talked now. “How did Young Master Ye get so familiar with Nian Nian? Nian Nian said that she called you to pick us up. I was a little surprised. I didn’t expect it to really be you.”
The Jiang family had a good relationship with the Ye family.
It was mainly because of their relationship shared among the older generation. However, the younger generation did not interact often. He almost had no interaction with Ye Lan.
With Ye Wangchuan, who was a generation younger than him, it was needless to say that they interacted even less.
The only time they met was a year ago in Rao City. Jiang Zongjin still felt emotional when he thought about it.
That was the first time he had seen Qiao Nian.
They were also eating at a Chinese restaurant called Waterside Loft. Ye Wangchuan was there at the time.
