Min Yu leaned his arm lazily against the car window with his sleeves rolled up to reveal his ivory wrist. He looked at Huo Yao with a meaningful smile and said, “Because your incense worked well.”
Huo Yao raised her brow. Her face was glowing and she replied with an indescribable sense of openness and confidence. “That goes without saying.”
Zhuo Yun interrupted them at this timely moment. “Miss Huo, are you friends with the shop owner? When I ordered from him two days ago, he even gave me a 50% discount.”
Huo Yao was lost. She looked at Zhuo Yun and asked perplexedly. “What shop owner?”
Min Yu had already covered his forehead with his hand.
Zhuo Yun started the engine and said, “The online incense seller whom you recommended to Yu.”
Huo Yao blinked. She finally realized who Zhuo Yun was talking about. “I don’t know him.”
“Oh, don’t you know him? I thought he gave us the discount because of you,” said Zhuo Yun instinctively.
Huo Yao narrowed her eyes. She recalled the messages she received from Min Yu the other day. She could not help asking airily. “So how much did you buy?”
Zhuo Yun scratched his head and said, “About 200 boxes. I bought all the stock he had.”
Huo Yao glanced sideways at Min Yu with a teasing look in her eyes.
A slight uneasiness emerged on Min Yu’s striking face. He cleared his throat to change the subject and said unhurriedly, “Huo Yao, what would you like to have for dinner?”
Huo Yao laughed. She placed her hands behind her head and leaned against the seat without the slightest concern for her image and answered. “I don’t care as long as it’s good.”
Min Yu looked at the laid back teenager and said jokingly, “Aren’t you worried that I’m going to sell you?”
Huo Yao had already closed her eyes and replied proudly. “Go ahead if you can.”
“Heh…” laughed Min Yu with a shake of his head. He instructed Zhuo Yun about where to take them.
Min Yu did not continue with the conversation since Huo Yao was resting. Even Zhuo Yun subconsciously turned off the music playing in the car.
The car stopped outside a quiet and secluded restaurant roughly half an hour later.
Just as Min Yu turned to wake Huo Yao up, he noticed that her eyes were already open. Her bright, beautiful eyes did not seem sleepy at all. He said, “We’re here.”
Huo Yao nodded. She opened the car door and got off.
She looked at the ancient look of the main entrance. Harmonious rustic styled decoration sat on both sides of the door and gave it a rather carefree and refined flavor.
Huo Yao followed behind Min Yu and entered the restaurant. Despite the restaurant’s humble appearance, it was charming, and its elegance became apparent as they went in.
“This place looks good,” said Huo Yao as she looked around.
“But it doesn’t have any customers.”
Min Yu turned back to glance at her and explained. “It isn’t open to the public today.”
Huo Yao raised her head and asked him. “Is it your friend’s restaurant?”
“You can say so,” replied Min Yu indifferently.
A middle-aged man walked over. When he saw Min Yu, his face instantly became a lot more respectful as he said, “Mr. Min, you’re here.”
Mr. Min?
Huo Yao looked at the middle-aged man thoughtfully without missing the reverent look in his eyes.
The middle-aged man knew that Min Yu was coming with a friend when he received the call, but he was clearly surprised to see that it was a young girl.
