Cai Shengnan was in a dilemma at the entrance of Luhuitou Restaurant. Her expression was very ugly.
Luo Jialan, who was dressed in Chanel's new summer fashion, quickly said, "What's wrong? Is there a problem with the private room? "
"The restaurant manager said that the owner of the private room is here, so we can only eat in the lobby." Cai Shengnan pursed her lips and put away her phone. "Why don't we eat somewhere else?"
Luo Jialan and Cai Shengnan were both members here, but Cai Shengnan's villa was on Xiaotangshan in the north, while Luo Jialan's villa was here. The place was not bad.
In terms of land price, the villas in the West Mountain were priceless. That was because the houses here could not be bought with money. They were considered super first-rate.
On the other hand, Little Tangshan was a medium-sized villa group. It could only be considered as a second-tier villa in the capital.
However, Cai Shengnan was different. She had returned from the United States, and the house in the imperial capital had been temporarily purchased by her father, Cai Sumin. Because of the tight schedule, her aunt, Cai Songyin, couldn't find a house to buy in the West Mountain Villa. Moreover, they didn't want to attract attention at that time, so they bought the Xiaotangshan Villa, which was more crowded.
However, she was still willing to come to Luhuitou Restaurant to eat and talk.
If she didn't live here, it would have been difficult for her to get a membership card.
However, at that time, her aunt, Cai Songyin, was the Prime Minister's wife, and her uncle, Tan Dongbang, was the Prime Minister. Therefore, she used Cai Songyin's connections to get her own membership card at Luhuitou Restaurant.
Of course, it was only the most ordinary level of membership card, not the highest level of platinum membership card.
This meant that there might not be a private room for them to eat here.
Luo Jialan didn't want to run around.
This place was relatively close to her villa and could be reached by walking. She really did not want to drive out again.
"It's okay. Why don't we stay in the lobby? Actually, the design of the lobby here is also very unique. "Luo Jialan walked in first.
The restaurant manager asked two foremen to invite them to two seats by the window. "What do you think of this seat?"
Cai Shengnan took a closer look and asked the two foremen, "Which private room did we originally reserve?"
The two foremen pointed to a small private room not far away and said, "Right there. I'm sorry, but the owner of that place is here. We can't just make arrangements. "
"It's nothing, I'm just asking. I haven't been to this private room before, "Cai Shengnan said with a smile, but her eyes were fixed on the door of the private room.
Two foremen brought over a screen and placed it next to the small table.
Behind them was a huge basin of water dripping Guanyin. The water was gurgling, and the music was faintly discernible. It was actually very comfortable, and it also guaranteed enough privacy.
Luo Jialan and Cai Shengnan laughed together.
"Here it is." The two nodded to the head waiter. "Give us the menu."
While the two of them were ordering, Cai Shengnan's phone rang. She took it and looked at it. It was actually a call from her father, Cai Sumin.
At this time, it was midnight in the United States. Why would he call at this time?
Cai Shengnan quickly answered the phone. "Daddy, you're still up so late?"
Cai Sumin's voice was very hoarse, but he was very energetic. "Shengnan, have you seen the Japanese news?"
"… No, why? Is there anything worth seeing? "Cai Shengnan looked at the menu while chatting with her father.
"You don't pay any attention to the case of the 'Angel in the World' Foundation?" Cai Sumin's face darkened. "Shengnan, although you've returned to the country, you can't abandon your profession. You have to always maintain a strong desire for knowledge in your profession."
"Got it, Daddy. Why are you so serious? You should go to bed early. I'll go watch the news. " As Cai Shengnan spoke, she searched for the case of the "Angel in the World" Foundation on the Internet and clicked on it.
It turned out that today was supposed to be the day the verdict was pronounced.
However, the news that the highest judge in charge of the case had suddenly died at home was all over the news that the highest judge in charge of the case had suddenly died at home!
..
He Zhichu and Gu Nianzhi sat in the private room of the Luhuitou restaurant and chatted.
The dishes they ordered were delivered very quickly.
Two steamed lobsters, a plate of steamed grouper, two cups of royal bird's nest, salt and pepper shrimp, and steamed ribs with black bean sauce.
For the vegetarian dishes, they ordered a stewed bamboo shoots with apricot mushrooms and fresh celery with scallops.
Gu Nianzhi ate the steamed lobster first.
The lobster meat was fresh, sweet, delicious, and juicy. It was no worse than the lobster they had eaten in Cape Town, South Africa!
He Zhichu smiled faintly as he watched her eat happily. He scooped a small bowl of royal bird's nest from the stew pot and placed it in front of her.
Gu Nianzhi didn't even look up as she thanked him. She focused on torturing the lobster.
He Zhichu had just taken a few bites of the steamed grouper when he felt his phone vibrate.
He took it out and saw that it was actually a call from Smith.
Smith was his subordinate at the American law firm, and he was also a member of the main law firm representing Gu Nianzhi in the lawsuit in Japan.
A call at this time should mean that the results of the case were out.
He Zhichu curled his lips, his fingers moving slightly as he unlocked his phone.
As soon as the call connected, Smith's mournful voice came through. "Mr. He, something happened …"
He Zhichu stood up and said calmly to Gu Nianzhi, "I have something to do. I'll go out and take a call."
Gu Nianzhi nodded. "Professor He, please go ahead."
He Zhichu quickly walked out of the private room with his phone in hand.
Cai Shengnan and Luo Jialan had just finished ordering. Luo Jialan was sitting with her back to He Zhichu's private room, while Cai Shengnan was sitting diagonally across from the private room.
He Zhichu pushed the door open and walked out of the private room. Cai Shengnan saw him at a glance.
Wasn't that He Zhichu?!
Cai Shengnan's expression turned cold.
Could this private room belong to He Zhichu?
That couldn't be …
In this arrogant restaurant, the people who could reserve a private room were definitely not ordinary people. Not only did they have money, but they also had power.
Even her uncle and aunt, who were the former prime minister, couldn't help her father buy a villa in the West Hills. What did He Zhichu have to do?
He Zhichu must have come to eat with a friend. This private room must have been reserved by his friend.
She wondered what kind of friends a person like He Zhichu would have.
Cai Shengnan was eager to win. When He Zhichu walked through the corridor and walked towards the entrance of the restaurant, Cai Shengnan quietly stood up.
Under the cover of the huge Dripping Guanyin beside her, Cai Shengnan quietly stood up and quickly walked towards the private room He Zhichu had come out of.
When she reached the door of the private room, she saw that it wasn't locked. It was just ajar.
Cai Shengnan looked in through the crack in the door and saw the silhouette of a young woman with a ponytail. She was wearing a black T-shirt and light blue skinny jeans. Her two slender, straight legs were crossed.
She saw the shoes on her feet. It was Isabel Marant.
A pair of simple white flat-heeled shoes was worth at least 3,000 US dollars.
Cai Shengnan's eyes were burning with desire. Her gaze moved up the woman's shoes inch by inch.
At that moment, the woman inside suddenly turned her head. Cai Shengnan clearly saw her face. It was actually Gu Nianzhi!
