Chapter 1753: 1753
“Call your manager over . ”
“Okay, Sir, please wait a moment . ”
After about a minute, the restaurant’s manager came out . He was a man in his 40s, wearing a pair of golden-framed glasses . He was a bit chubby but very cheerful-looking .
Before Su Yu said anything, the manager walked over and said respectfully, “Welcome, Young Master Su . How come you didn’t say anything so we could prepare?”
“It’s fine . My friend and I were just shopping nearby so it was a last-minute decision . ”
“Please come in…”
“Are there still openings? I’d like a quiet room…” Su Yu asserted .
“Yes, yes, yes… Even if other people don’t have seats, there will still be a room specially reserved for you . Young Master Shen had given us this order . ”
The people in line looked at them with envy as the manager led Su Yu and Huo Mian up the stairs .
Only then did Huo Mian come to a realization . “Does this restaurant belong to Shen Mingxi?”
“Yeah, but it’s not under the Shen Corporation . This restaurant belongs to him . I heard it’s cause Wei Ying likes eating Korean barbeque . The two used to fly over to Seoul a lot on weekends but they got annoyed by the hassle so he decided to open up a restaurant . He hired the chefs from Korea so this restaurant is very authentic . ”
“No wonder it’s so good… Young Master Shen sure is generous with his money . ”
Huo Mian didn’t know Shen Mingxi that well . Every time she found out something new about him or met him was because of Su Yu .
She had met him briefly a few times but she felt that he was a cold person . However, Huo Yanyan had once fallen deeply in love with him .
When Shen Mingxi and Wei Ying got married, it also caused a stir within the city, and Wei Liao became Shen Mingxi’s brother in law…
The two went upstairs and into one of the quietest rooms . Then, Huo Mian ordered some meat and vegetables .
Su Yu ordered another bottle of sake…
“Why are you ordering sake? Who’s drinking?” Huo Mian was confused .
“I’m drinking…”
“Do you want to drive drunk under broad daylight?”
“Who told you I was going to drive drunk? Why not just make you drive…” Su Yu smiled .
“Fine… You win . ”
Huo Mian laughed .
This was her first time eating out since giving birth to the twins, so she felt rather different .
She felt that she had been a bird in captivity for a long time and the freedom she newly acquired was something rather refreshing .
“You just gave birth . Are you sure you’re okay?” Su Yu said, sounding a bit worried .
It had been less than a month since Huo Mian gave birth, was it okay for her to go about town like that?
“When do you see American or European women rest for such a long time after giving birth?” Huo Mian asked .
“Um… yeah… I actually don’t think they do that . Such strong women . ”
“It’s not that they’re strong . It’s just that the culture is different . Things like women not showering or washing their hair for a month after birth are just the customs of ancient times . If women actually didn’t shower or wash their hair for a month under such hot temperatures, they will become very stinky . As long as I keep myself warm and not catch a cold, it’s fine… People aren’t that weak . They can still go out and see the world…”
“Fine, you’re always right . I’m not going to argue with you . ”
Su Yu smiled at Huo Mian . Then he picked up a piece of cooked meat and put it on her plate .
Su Yu enjoyed this quiet lunch with Huo Mian; he felt like he was walking on clouds .
He could look at her, sit across from her, chat with her, laugh with her, put food on her plate, or pour water for her .
Su Yu never thought such little things could make him so happy .
When the bill came, the manager was very polite .
“Young Master Su, please don’t make this hard on us… We can’t accept money from you . Young Master Shen said everything you eat here would all be on the house . ”
“Okay then, thank Shen Mingxi for me . I’ll take him out for a drink when he comes back from his business trip . ”
“Understood . ”
When Su Yu and Huo Mian walked out of the restaurant, they saw Huo Siqian walking towards them .
