Chapter 264
As a result, under the orders of the Madam He and the and the housekeeper, whenever their family had anything, they would ask Shen Qi.
As it was related to the dignity of the He Family and the position of the Old Mistress, Shen Qi would also inquire about them one by one.
If that was the case, Shen Qi would indeed be busy.
There seemed to be some important arrangements at He Yi Ning Corporation\'s side, so they often worked overtime to prepare for something.
Half a month before Madam He, Cheng Tian Ji suddenly sent over an invitation, inviting Shen Qi to attend his opening ceremony.
He did open a private bakery in H City.
Shen Qi held this invitation card in her hand and thought about it for a long time before deciding to take a look.
When she was young, she didn\'t keep her appointment. She felt guilty for eighteen years.
Now that they had finally met, they could properly maintain this friendship!
Shen Qi called He Yi Ning and told him that she was going to attend the opening ceremony of an old friend. He Yi Ning didn\'t think about anything else and reminded him to bring a good present and not lose her identity.
Coincidentally, just as Shen Qi was about to leave, Liu Yi called.
Thus, Shen Qi naturally brought Liu Yi to attend Cheng Tian Ji\'s opening ceremony.
Cheng Tian Ji\'s shop surface was located in a relatively less bustling area. It was located to the north of the city and was adjacent to a county, which was considered a traffic hub. However, because of the development of the city\'s highways, the transportation capacity of this hub was not as exaggerated as expected.
I can only say that it was okay, but not the best.
Cheng Tian Ji\'s shop was located on a street inside this traffic hub.
There were quite a number of shops on this street, including food, drinks, and cheap clothes, bags, shoes, etc.
Basically, it belongs to the civilian consumption zone.
Therefore, once Cheng Tian Ji\'s shop opened, it instantly attracted the attention of the entire street.
This was because the private bakery was mostly hidden in the city. With such a beautifully decorated storefront suddenly appearing in the northern outskirts of the city, it would be hard to not attract attention.
As a result, Cheng Tian Ji\'s private bakery had already gathered a large group of people before the official opening date.
Cheng Tian Ji was dressed in his chef attire as he stood there, directing the shop perso
el to prepare for the opening ceremony.
When Shen Qi saw Cheng Tian Ji from afar, she immediately waved at him.
When Cheng Tian Ji saw this, he smiled and quickly walked to Shen Qi\'s side.
Liu Yi had been following beside Shen Qi the entire time, and Cheng Tian Ji subconsciously looked at him.
He had long since figured out Liu Yi\'s identity and the importance that he held in the bottom of Shen Qi\'s heart, so when he officially met Liu Yi for the first time, he didn\'t reveal any shocked or peculiar expression, and only greeted him warmly, "Xiao Qi, you\'re finally here! This is your friend? "
"This is Liu Yi, my good sister." Although Liu Yi did not mind, Shen Qi instinctively wanted to protect Liu Yi\'s reputation.
Cheng Tian Ji shook hands enthusiastically with Liu Yi: "Welcome!"
Liu Yi smiled and said: "I came uninvited, so in order to apologize, I sent you a flower basket. I hope you don\'t mind!"
"How could that be? An esteemed guest who could not be invited. Come, come, come in! " Cheng Tian Ji looked at the flower baskets that were delivered to him by the two of them, and suddenly squinted his eyes and said: "Esteemed guest, come to my door, this is my humble mansion!"
The person beside Shen Qi took a step forward and passed the money to the staff member who specially collected the red packets.
Cheng Tian Ji said unhappily: "It\'s good that you\'re able to come, why are you being so courteous?"
Shen Qi smiled and replied, "This is a wager, there can\'t be no wager. After you start your business, I\'ll have the face to come here and eat and drink! "
Cheng Tian Ji immediately laughed out loud. "Alright, in the future, come and play with your friends here. All of them are free. Let\'s go in and talk. "
Shen Qi followed Cheng Tian Ji in, and with a deep glance at Cheng Tian Ji\'s back, he subconsciously pinched his fingers.
The man had calluses on his hands.
If it was a chef, it would be normal for them to have wounds on their hands. However, it was abnormal for there to be a thin cocoon at the mouth of the tiger.
This was a place where only those who held guns would leave cocoons all year round.
Moreover, this cocoon wasn\'t for a short period of time. It should be quite some time already.
Who exactly was this Cheng Tian Ji?
He was so close to Xiao Qi, did Xiao Qi really know his identity?
Liu Yi\'s eyes flashed, and his focus on Cheng Tian Ji became even more serious.
As a good sister, of course I have the duty to help my sister check for any hidden dangers!
Cheng Tian Ji didn\'t have any friends in City H.
Thus, besides Shen Qi and Liu Yi, only a few of her relatively good friends came over to congratulate him.
Shen Qi covered her ears with her hands and smiled as she watched the guests gathered outside for free snacks. She said with a smile: "The traffic on this street is still okay, the business will definitely be good."
Cheng Tian Ji also laughed as he replied, "That\'s right, the amount of guests here is not bad, and the location is not bad. Most importantly, the rent here is cheap."
Liu Yi interrupted and said, "Mr. Cheng does not seem to be lacking in money, why not choose a better location?"
"Even if you have money, you still have to save some money. You still have to save some money for your wife." After Cheng Tian Ji finished this sentence, he looked at Shen Qi meaningfully.
Shen Qi didn\'t notice at all, and didn\'t think too much about it.
Liu Yi glanced at Cheng Tian Ji, and purposely said: "That\'s right, men, after all, need to earn more money in order to marry into a good wife. Such a good girl like my Xiao Qi, only the most respected young master of the He Family is worthy of his! "
Shen Qi rolled her eyes at Liu Yi. "Why did you bring me up just like that?"
Liu Yi laughed without saying a word.
Cheng Tian Ji purposely pretended to be stupid, and chuckled: "Right, right, Xiao Qi is so good, of course we have to be compatible with the best men. I will strive to be the best man! "
After the opening ceremony was completed, Cheng Tian Ji invited the two to rest in the quiet and elegant room on the third floor.
Once he went up to the third floor, Shen Qi found that there was a special cave.
Compared to the lobby on the first floor and the seats on the second floor, the third floor was unbelievably quiet.
There were a total of four rooms, marked with the words\' Spring, Flower, Autumn, and Moon \'.
Cheng Tian Ji brought them into the fancy room.
Upon entering the room, Shen Qi couldn\'t help but exclaim: "You\'re really willing to invest!"
The entire room was furnished with a fine rosewood floor and a watery rosewood furniture.
A white carpet covered a tatami.
An exquisite handmade tablecloth, neatly placed on top of it was a good set of blue and white tea set.
On a bookshelf by the side, there was a long line of books. The bookshelf wasn\'t very tall, and it was only half a meter in height, making it easy to access.
Near the window, there were a few flower vases on the floor. There were a few flowers that had already dried up, giving the room a sense of desolation.
Cheng Tian Ji smiled and said: "These four rooms are basically not open to the outside world. The two of you, please come in. "
Cheng Tian Ji took the lead and walked over.
Shen Qi Gen Liu Yi hurriedly followed him.
The feel of bare feet on the soft carpet was too good.
Not long after the three of them took their seats, people came in with exquisite food.
As the tea was poured on the table, a fragrant aroma wafted into the surroundings.
The exquisite food and the fragrant aroma of the tea filled the entire room with their fragrance.
"Mr. Cheng sure knows how to enjoy himself!" Liu Yi sighed and said: "I take back what I just said. If Mr. Cheng opened his shop here, he could indeed save a lot of rent and use it to decorate! "
Cheng Tian Ji laughed and said, "Since we are all in the same city, you can come at any time. I have reserved this room for you. No one else will come in. Except for cleaning and maintenance, it will not be used to receive guests. "
Shen Qi immediately said, "How can that be? "You want to do business, how can you waste such a good environment?"
Cheng Tian Ji looked at Shen Qi meaningfully and said, "There are always some things in this world that are more important than making money. For example, emotions. "
Shen Qi\'s eyes trembled slightly.
She suddenly felt indecisive about what Cheng Tian Ji meant by that.
Was there some other meaning to his words?
His marriage to He Yi Ning was already something the entire world knew. It couldn\'t be that he still hadn\'t known, right?
If he really didn\'t know, then he would have to give a proper explanation!
Otherwise, it wouldn\'t be good if he misunderstood.
Shen Qi said, "That\'s right, relationships are more important than earning money. So, Geji, when are you going to find a home for your feelings? After all, he was not young anymore! It was time to settle down. "Look, I\'ve settled down."
Cheng Tian Ji sighed: "It\'s not that I don\'t want to, it\'s just that I can\'t make up my mind. Forget it, let\'s not talk about this anymore. Come, have a taste of my food. I made all of these myself. Do you still like to taste my cooking skills? "
Without waiting for Shen Qi to say anything, Cheng Tian Ji had already changed the topic.
Since he did not want to talk about it, Shen Qi could only eat with Liu Yi.
During the meal, the three of them only talked about topics that had nothing to do with them, but they never had anything to do with the past or their relationship.
Before leaving, Liu Yi said to Shen Qi: "Xiao Qi, I keep having this feeling that there\'s something wrong with this Cheng Tian Ji. How do you know him? "
Shen Qi sighed and said: "Xiao Qi, do you remember that little big brother I mentioned to you before? "He\'s that little big brother."
Shen Qi immediately told Liu Yi about how she met Cheng Tian Ji in the northeast and how she came into contact with him.
"I\'ve only told you about those details from back then. Therefore, the possibility of the other party impersonating us is not high. " Shen Qi chuckled, "Even though it\'s been eighteen years since we last met, I have finally seen it, and it can be considered to be a wish of my childhood."
Liu Yi did not speak.
She felt that Cheng Tian Ji was becoming more and more suspicious.
