Gu Nianzhi did not want to , so she remained quiet and followed her into the restaurant

Huo Jialan felt like she could not hold the ser, but she still did not bear to leave

This ti, to France and lived in the Xie’s mansion for about a year It was only then did she realize what a truly wealthy fah the Huo family was not bad and had more power in terms of authority, the wealth that the Xie family had was much more than the Huo’s It was that obvious

Perhaps after a few enerations, the wealth of the Huo’s could be comparable to that of the Xies, but as of now the two did not co was merely a distant relative of the Xies When she was in France, she had accompanied her father, Xie Dezhao, to the Xie’s ot acquainted with Huo Jialan

The two of theether a couple of ti Avenue des Champs Élysées

If Huo Jialan had ive the illusion of letting you feel good about yourself, like you have finallylikedfriends as well The two clicked well

When Xie Qingying was on her way to treat Gu Nianzhi to a meal near B University, she bumped into Huo Jialan coincidentally

Upon hearing that Xie Qingying was going to treat Gu Nianzhi to a meal, she immediately said that she also knew Gu Nianzhi well, and she had not seen her in the longest tiain

Xie Qingying agreed readily and said, “It’s always nicer to have meals with more people”

She had always liked the feeling of having family dinners where everyone in the family was present

When they were at the Xie’s Mansion, the fae tables

She had not expected that it would be in such a situation when she finally would get todid not say anything, she had already mentally made up her mind to distance herself from Huo Jialan

She could tell that Gu Nianzhi had a horrible impression of Huo Jialan

She would of course be on Gu Nianzhi’s side, so it was natural for her to come to this decision

The three of the roo requested the menu so Gu Nianzhi could place her order

Gu Nianzhi exa dishes

One of which was shredded tofu skin braised with superior stock It was really challenging to shred the tofu skin into thin, noodle-like strips It had to be cut into thin strips before it could be cooked When braised in superior stock, it tasted refreshi+ng and savory

Other than shredded tofu skin, one of thedishes was deep-fried Chinese perch that was made to look like a squirrel The body of the Chinese perch had to be cut into strips ofinto hot oil to get it deep-fried into shape Then, a sweet and sour sauce would be poured over the fish,the dish look similar to a fluffy squirrel’s tail

The last dish that Gu Nianzhi had ordered would be braised pork balls with shredded crab meat It was called braised lion head in mandarin and was made from scratch Then, it was cooked slowly in a pot There were only four pork balls in a pot When it was served, each pork ball would be placed in a bowl There would be only one pork ball per bowl Gu Nianzhi used to like it so much that she hoped that she could have this dish as awas strict in bringing her up Therefore, he insisted on teaching her correct table manners She was also not allowed to overeat

Therefore, it reht in Gu Nianzhi’sby her side, she felt that it would be fine to cut herself some slack Anyway, she could run three rounds around the school later after she was done eating to burn off the extra calories…

Seeing that Gu Nianzhi had only ordered the appetizers, Huo Jialan suggested, “Why didn’t you order the soft shell turtle soup? They have braised claypot free range duck as well These are Huaiyang dishes that require soadded Huo Jialan’s orders to the list She infor some stir-fried meat for appetizers and steamed chicken wrapped with lotus leaves as mains She also ordered a portion of bird’s nest with Hashi+nature dishes from restaurants like these Therefore, they ell-prepared and their dishes arrived in the blink of an eye

The three of the out, Gu Nianzhi and Xie Qingying did not adhere to the rule of not talking during ood ti after co back this time around?” Gu Nianzhi asked curiously She knew that Xie Dezhao and Xie Qingying returned from overseas, but they still own businesses in Hua Xia E had already reached the e She was supposed to return to Hua Xia E partner—or to put it simply, a husband

She was not close with Gu Nianzhi in the past and did not have any intention to be close to her Therefore, they were ht this topic up before
