Chapter 57 - How Did They Became Friends? (1/2)
After a few seconds, Li Qin Yao finally nodded and accepted the offer. Zhang Yu Han then led the girl towards the vehicle, and his assistant, Xiao Ye descended from the car and help them both with their luggage.
Xiao Ye glanced at Zhang Yu Han with an inquiring look before the later introduced them to each other. ”This is my friend, Li Qin Yao and this is my assistant, Xiao Ye.”
The two of them nodded politely. Then, Zhang Yu Han opened the door to the backseat for Li Qin Yao and then, sat at the front passenger seat. Xiao Ye then drove into the city.
Almost an hour later, they arrived at The Orchid Hotel. Zhang Yu Han stepped out before he gave Xiao Ye an instruction. Then, he helped Li Qin Yao and the two walked into the lobby together.
”Do you have a reservation?” Zhang Yu Han asked.
Li Qin Yao nodded.
”Give me your ID, Xiao Ye will help you to check-in.”
Li Qin Yao took out her ID and passed it over to Xiao Ye. Then, the assistant went towards the reception desk, while Zhang Yu Han led Li Qin Yao to sit at a corner.
As they were waiting, Li Qin Yao grabbed a pamphlet on the table and looked at it casually. Her eyes glinted as she read the company's information. It was then that she recalled the conversation with Zhang Jing - The Orchid is one of the hotels under Zhang Group Worldwide.
Her face turned slightly pink as she tilted her head to Zhang Yu Han. She then understood why he told her that they were going in the same direction. To think that she had initially suspected that Zhang Yu Han had invited her for an ulterior motive!
”What's on your mind?”
Li Qin Yao tilted her head up as she heard his deep baritone voice to meet his gaze.
”You were in a daze,” Zhang Yu Han said when she did not answer.
”Nothing,” Li Qin Yao shook her head. ”I just recalled that The Orchid is a property under Zhang Group. So, this hotel should be one of yours, right?”
”You… know?” Zhang Yu Han stared at her with surprise on his face.
”I met your grandfather last week and we both shared a meal together,” Li Qin Yao said. ”Then, he mentioned about Zhang Group and its business.”
Zhang Yu Han had a slight frown on his face.
His grandfather and the girl he fancied had shared a meal. Why didn't he know about this? How was it that his grandfather had a meal with her when he himself had never shared any meals with her?
”You and my grandfather had a meal together?” Zhang Yu Han watched as she nodded. ”He never mentioned it. Miss Li, when did you become close to my grandfather?”
