Chapter 209 - 209: Untitled
Chu Yichen had picked a traditional Chinese restaurant this time. Li An’an walked in. It was decorated in period style with spacious private rooms. It was quiet and elegant. When she came to the door of the private room, she saw a beautiful woman in a cheongsam standing beside Chu Yichen. She was saying something to him.
The woman was very beautiful. She was slender and tall, and her skin was as fair as snow. She wore a cheongsam with a white background and blue patterns. Her smile was beautiful and compelling.
“President Chu, it’s an honor. I didn’t expect to run into you here. I’ve been hoping to see you again after meeting you on the yacht last time, but there have been many events recently and I haven’t had the time to participate in entertainment activities.” Liang Qian smiled regretfully.
Li An’an recalled. This was the up and coming starlet Liang Qian. She didn’t expect Chu Yichen to know her.
Chu Yichen was looking down at the menu, wondering if he should order more dishes. He felt someone approaching suddenly and looking up, saw Liang Qian. He wondered who this woman was and then remembered. She was a popular artist from another entertainment company, and had been in the limelight lately. The last time they met on the yacht, she was thinking of moving to another company.
“We’ll meet up another time.”
Liang Qian smiled when Chu Yichen responded. “It’s a deal then. I’ll definitely invite CEO Chu to my next event. You must not decline.”
Liang Qian smiled politely. She didn’t seem to be trying too hard to curry favor with Chu Yichen, so the interaction was comfortable. After all, she had been in the entertainment industry for so many years. Although she didn’t have much contact with Chu Yichen, he had a good reputation and had almost no scandals with celebrities. Such a man would make a very reliable date, but it wouldn’t be easy to move him.
“Alright, I’ll have to go now. I have a meal with the investors today.”
Chu Yichen nodded.
Liang Qian gracefully left the private room and her expression turned aloof once more. As she walked out, she glanced at Li An’an, and a certain emotion flashed across her eyes. It was the repulsion and dislike that a beautiful woman would have towards another beautiful woman.
Li An’an looked right past her. She didn’t like Liang Qian’s pretense. She had obviously played the field, but acted innocent in front of Chu Yichen. She didn’t like it.
Chu Yichen happened to look over from the door and saw Li An’an. She was still in the white lace dress that he had bought for her yesterday. She looked pure, beautiful and seductive, especially with her long black hair swept behind and draped over her back today, it made her look rather cold.
“Come and see if these dishes are to your liking.” Initially, he wanted to order more dishes, but they were not as delicious as what she could make, so he gave up on the idea.
He had asked her out for a meal today just to cultivate their relationship.
Li An’an put her bag aside and sat down next to him.
Chu Yichen placed the bowl and chopsticks in front of her and washed them with boiling water.
Li An’an was surprised to see him scalding the bowl. “Do you usually do this when you eat out?” It was hard to imagine him doing this at business meals with others. She couldn’t look at him directly. The action just didn’t match up.
Chu Yichen drained out the water in the bowl.
“No, I’m just a little bored.”
“Alright.” Li An’an was happy to accept his gentlemanly attitude.
The dishes ordered by Chu Yichen were all very expensive. Abalone, Buddha
Jumps Over The Wall, and shark’s fin. They were all among the most expensive.
Li An’an tasted the food and nodded. It was not bad, even quite delicious. Most importantly, she could eat ready-made food without having to do the cooking herself. It was bliss.
“I’ll take you to buy clothes after you’re done eating. What do you think of the shop we went to the last time? If you don’t like it, we can go to another shop.”
Li An’an finished the soup in her bowl and studied Chu Yichen’s expression carefully. She realized that he was serious. She could not understand what Chu
Yichen saw in her..
