Lu Nanze drove ahead as Shen Liangchuan tailed with Qiao Lian in his car.
After about half an hour of driving, the two cars arrived, one after another, at an ordinary private restaurant.
They got out of the car. Qiao Lian’s expression turned gloomy immediately as she recognized the place.
This was the dining venue that they used to frequent eight years ago.
Next to it was their high school.
Because it was troublesome to go home from school for lunch, and because they had never quite liked the food in school, their small group of families got together to open this private dinning hall. It catered especially to their small group for lunch.
At that time, they could come up with their own weekly menu.
Eventually, because the hired chefs were all renowned, they decided to establish a simple restaurant. Over time, the restaurant had become quite well-known.
But their private room had not changed a bit.
As she contemplated it, she noticed that Lu Nanze had stopped his car by the side and was walking into the restaurant. Shortly afterwards, the boss came out. “Mr. Lu, the same old seats?”
Lu Nanze nodded and then turned back to glance at Qiao Lian.
The boss followed his gaze and her eyes lit up immediately when she saw Qiao Lian. “Ms. Qiao?! Ms. Qiao, you are here too! I haven’t seen you in eight years! You look prettier than ever.”
Qiao Lian smiled at her.
Then the boss’ gaze fell on Shen Liangchuan, who was wearing his mask and sunglasses.
Their marriage had been a hot topic, so of course the boss knew that the man next to Qiao Lian was none other than Best Actor Shen. Besides, taking into account the way he was completely covered, who else could he be?
The boss glanced at Lu Nanze and then turned back to look at Best Actor Shen. She was going to greet Qiao Lian and make some small talk, however, sensing the tension between the two men, she thought better and stood there respectfully instead.
The three guests, one leading and the other two behind, walked into the private room.
The private room was well insulated so that it was sound-proof. The boss made sure they were comfortable. “Mr. Lu, Ms. Qiao and Mr. Shen, what would you like to order?”
Qiao Lian reached out for the menu and was about to place her order, when suddenly Lu Nanze quickly gave a list of dishes. “Braised Spare Ribs, Roasted Marinated Trotters, Ants Climbing A Tree, Sweet Sour Pork…”
In a single breath, he had ordered over twenty dishes and, with each order, the boss couldn’t help but glance at Qiao Lian.
They were all dishes that Qiao Lian loved.
After Lu Nanze was done, he turned and shot Shen Liangchuan a provocative look.
It was obvious he was trying to show how well he knew Qiao Lian.
Because they were a pair that had grown up together.
Shen Liangchuan paused in the middle of reaching out for the menu and looked up. After this, he tossed the menu back on the table and pursed his lips. He said calmly, “Coincidentally, these are all dishes that Xiao Qiao and I like. Thanks.”
Qiao Lian was speechless.
Good grief, Best Actor Shen, could you be more vicious with your words?
She lowered her head and sneaked a glance at Lu Nanze. Indeed, the guy’s expression had clouded over.
It was obvious what Shen Liangchuan was trying to convey.
So what if you know her favourite meals? She and I like the same things. We are the true couple!
At once, the room fell silent.
No one spoke as the boss made her way out to prepare the food.
After a while, Lu Nanze finally asked, “Would you like to visit our school after the meal?”
