C60 Take Her to Dinner
Seeing Wen Ran leave, Qiao Lu came back and said to Dan Cheng Lie in annoyance, "Didn't I just tell you not to scream?"
Dan Cheng Hao asked from the other side: "What happened?"
Qiao Lu heaved a sigh of relief and briefly explained the matter to Dan Cheng Hao.
Dan Cheng Hao looked at Dan Cheng Lie and asked unhappily: "What the hell are you doing? Why can't you take care of a good person?"
Dan Cheng Lie felt wronged and said to his brother: "This is also out of my control." He turned his head to look at Qiao Lu De and said bitterly, "Sister-in-law, why don't you come to the Secret Service? This way, you can be under my watch and I can keep an eye on you at all times."
Qiao Lu rolled his eyes at him, "What are you two talking about? I am so old, so I don't need the two of you to take care of me. Alright, I'll go down first. Otherwise, the manager won't know what to say."
"Come back!" Dan Cheng Hao shouted, "I'm already here, where are you going?" Then, he raised his wrist and looked at the time. He said, "It's almost noon. Come with me. I'll take you to lunch."
Qiao Lu De also looked at his watch and laughed. "Boss, are you kidding me? It's only ten-thirty now."
"Don't you think driving for a while will take up too much time?" Dan Cheng Hao walked over and said to her, "Alright, let's go."
Dan Cheng Lie looked at the two of them from the side and asked Dan Cheng Hao pitifully, "Brother, I want to go too."
"You still have the nerve to ask me to treat you to a meal when you haven't even done anything? Just stay in the company."
When he got in the car with Dan Cheng Hao, Qiao Lu De asked curiously, "Why are you here?"
Dan Cheng Hao started the car and drove away slowly. He said with a smile, "I did some calculations in Ning Yuan. I knew you were in trouble, so I came over because I was worried about you."
"Forget it." Qiao Lu De laughed. "You said that Lu Jingyan was a fortune-teller on the heavenly bridge, and you became a fraud?"
"What do you think about the plane ticket?"
Qiao Lu De tilted his head and thought for a while before asking, "What else can I say? He was trying to frame her. I told you, you have to keep a low profile. Someone must have seen that Dan Cheng Lie is calling me sister-in-law, and you are eating at the same table as me. Some people are jealous and jealous, so they want to frame me by any means."
Dan Cheng Hao touched his nose and said with a smile: "It's all my fault. Then this lunch today will be your apology."
He didn't know where Dan Cheng Hao was taking him to eat, but the road became more and more bumpy along the way. Gradually, they left the urban area and headed towards the suburbs. Qiao Lu De was a little unsure in his heart and asked curiously, "Where are we going to eat? It's so far, or don't go."
Dan Cheng Hao asked with a smile, "Why are you afraid? Be careful that I bring you to a place where there is no one else. After that, I will hehehe..."
Qiao Lu De looked at him and said with a smile, "Big brother, can you please not be so childish?"
The car drove forward and finally stopped in front of a courtyard.
Dan Cheng Hao took off his seatbelt and said to Qiao Lu De, "Get out of the car."
Qiao Lu De followed him out of the car and entered the vermillion gate. The scenery inside was completely different. There was a small bridge and flowing water. There were pavilions and buildings, and it was a picturesque scene of a river village in the south of the Yangtze River.
They were led into a room by a waiter who was dressed like a maid in a red jacket and green dress. He handed them an antique menu to order. Dan Cheng Hao took it and looked through it a few times. He ordered a few signature dishes here and handed them to Qiao Lu De, saying, "How many do you want to order?"
Qiao Lu De said, "I think the food you ordered is enough for us to eat. It's done." As he spoke, he handed the meal book back to the waiter.
Seeing the waiter leave, Qiao Lu De asked in surprise, "How did you find this place? There is actually such an elegant place in Peace City?"
"Do you like it?" Dan Cheng Hao poured tea into the teacup and said casually: "It's also because there was a business partner who invited me to dinner last time and brought me here."
"Okay, I like it very much," Qiao Lu said sincerely as he turned his head to look at the simple and unadorned furniture in the room.
"The dishes here are also very delicious. I heard that they are all the descendants of the royal chefs." Dan Cheng Hao pushed the teacup over and asked, "Hua Hong Pao, are you used to drinking?"
Qiao Lu De's face revealed a hint of embarrassment as he took a sip, "Everytime I drink tea, it tastes bitter."
The dishes here were served very slowly. After waiting for a long time, each ingredient was placed on an exquisite plate before being served by the waiter. Dan Cheng Hao picked up a piece of fermented lotus root from her plate and said, "I remember that you like to eat this, right?"
Qiao Lu De's eyes lit up as he picked up his chopsticks and said, "Yes, I have loved to eat it since I was young. How did you know?" She took a bite and put it in her mouth. It was sweet and crispy and delicious.
Dan Cheng Hao took a sip of the Osmanthus Wine, smiled, and said, "I know everything about you."
After Qiao Lu finished a piece of the Lotus Root Starch, he picked up another piece and said indifferently, "Come on, how long have we known each other and you already know? How can you be so powerful?"
Dan Cheng Hao smiled and did not comment.
"It's your birthday soon. Have you thought about how to celebrate it?" Dan Cheng Hao suddenly asked.
Qiao Lu De looked up at him in surprise and asked, "How do you know when my birthday is?" Then, he suddenly realized and said, "Dan Cheng Lie told you? I filled it all in the company's form."
"August 20th of the lunar calendar. Is it written in this company's form?" When Dan Cheng Hao saw her shocked expression, he laughed and asked jokingly.
Qiao Lu De was really shocked this time. The food in his chopsticks also fell down because he let go of his hand. She comforted herself in her heart, It's fine. It's just a birthday, so I know about the lunar calendar. Once she checked the lunar calendar, she would naturally know as well.
"It's just a birthday, and every year, I spend it with my sister. It doesn't matter anymore." Qiao Lu actually hated celebrating a birthday, so he waved his hand and did not want to continue the topic.
Dan Cheng Hao didn't want to dampen her mood, so he picked up some food for her and picked up another topic to chat about.
Qiao Lu De had a lot of fun eating this meal. When they were paying the bill, she even politely competed with Dan Cheng Hao for the bill. Dan Cheng Hao was not polite at all. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Then you can do it. That's true. Every time, it's my treat. It's time for you to spend some money."
Qiao Lu De asked with a smile, "May I ask how much?"
"Hello, Miss. You have spent a total of 12,800 yuan," the waiter said politely.
Qiao Lu De's hand that was holding the wallet stopped, his heart skipped a beat, his face flushed red, and he asked in a trembling voice, "How much?"
"Hello, it's a total of 12,800 yuan."
Qiao Lu De chuckled, "Oh, okay."
There was definitely not that much cash, so he could only take out his credit card with a trembling hand and hand it over to her before saying stiffly, "No password."
This meal had cost her a few months' salary, so she would have to eat dirt for the next few days! When she thought about her miserable life after that, tears instantly streamed down her face.
