Night fell.
In the bustling metropolis of Shanghai, tens of thousands of lights were lit up. At the Everlasting Feast Hall's branch in Shanghai, Chi Nan was quietly leaning on the counter, lazily fiddling with the mobile phone in her hand.
"Chief Chi, someone is looking for you."
A waiter came over with a plate.
"Who's looking for me?" Chi Nan casually looked up and asked.
The waiter pointed to the back and said, "It's that boy. He said he wants a private room, but all the private rooms in our restaurant are full."
Chi Nan looked over and her expression slightly changed. A bright smile appeared on her gorgeous face. After seeing that the person was Tan Xiu, she then said to the waiter, "Immediately clean up the VIP lounge on the fourth floor. Prepare the best wine after the wine, and prepare the dishes according to the VIP treatment. Go quickly. "
"VIP?"
The waiter was stunned. He turned to look at Tan Xiu and the others with a surprised expression and then trotted away.
Chi Nan came to the front of Tang Xiu and the others with a smile. Although she had clearly seen Kang Xia's stunning appearance and was somewhat surprised inside, she still smiled and said, "Welcome, Boss. Do you need a private room?"
"Chi Nan, arrange a VIP lounge on the fourth floor for us!" Tan Xiu said with a smile. "They're all our people."
Chi Nan stared blankly for a moment before immediately replying with a smile, "I've already sent someone to prepare it, Boss."
Tan Xiu nodded with a smile and said, "Let me introduce you. This is Kang Xia, the General Manager of the Magnificent Tang Corporation. This is Su Quan, my brother who grew up with me and now works in the Magnificent Tang Corporation. She's Chi Nan, the Manager of the Everlasting Feast Hall's branch in Shanghai. "
"Hello, Kang Xia." Chi Nan extended her hand and said with a smile, "You can call me Sister Nannan since we're on the same side! How about I call you Xiaxia? "
"This …"
Kang Xia hesitated for a moment before shaking hands with Chi Nan. She then nodded and looked at Tan Xiu and asked with a confused expression, "What's going on, Boss?"
"I'm the Magnificent Tang Corporation's Boss and also the Everlasting Feast Hall's Boss." Tan Xiu said with a smile. "It's that simple."
Kang Xia was surprised. "Are you really the Everlasting Feast Hall's Boss? How was this possible? As far as I know, the Everlasting Feast Hall has been established for decades. You … "
Tan Xiu waved his hand to interrupt her words and said with a faint smile, "There are some things that you are not clear about now. Perhaps you will know in the future! Alright, let's not talk about this. This time, our Gods Nectar was able to cause a sensation in the Wine Tasting Conference, indicating that it will soon become famous. I'll celebrate your victory in advance. "
Seeing that Tan Xiu no longer said anything, Kang Xia also refrained from asking any further. To her, being able to be together with Tan Xiu was already a pleasant surprise.
The VIP lounge on the fourth floor.
Under Chi Nan's lead, they entered the spacious VIP lounge. Su Quan's eyes widened as he sized up the interior. He then came to the window and looked at the bustling street outside. He couldn't help but sigh, "This is too luxurious. I've been to many restaurants, but this is the first time I've been to such a luxurious restaurant."
"This is the VIP lounge of our Everlasting Feast Hall," said Chi Nan with a smile. "Except for a few VIPs of the Everlasting Feast Hall, as well as our own people, outsiders are not allowed to come here."
"It seems that we've taken advantage of Big Boss!" Su Quan said with a smile.
At this time, the employees of the Magnificent Tang Corporation were also a bit shocked. Although they knew that Tan Xiu was the Big Boss of the Magnificent Tang Corporation, they knew very little about this hands-off boss. Now, they finally understood that it was not that their Big Boss didn't care about the company's situation, but that his business was not limited to the Magnificent Tang Corporation. He was simply too busy.
"Have a seat!" Tan Xiu waved his hand and said with a smile.
Kang Xia quickly pulled a chair for Tan Xiu and then sat next to Tan Xiu with a smile.
Chi Nan didn't take a seat, but said, "Boss, Elder Ji has arrived in Shanghai. She didn't inform you because she learned that you went to Guangyang a few days ago. You see … when will you have the time to see her? "
Tan Xiu thought for a moment and said, "Tell her to wait. The person I'm waiting for hasn't arrived in Shanghai yet. I'll contact her when she arrives. "
"Alright!"
Chi Nan nodded with a faint smile.
Quickly.
The Everlasting Feast Hall's fine wine and dishes were delivered one after another. The fragrant aroma of the dishes and rice made everyone's appetite whet. This meal lasted for a full two hours before it ended. During the banquet, Kang Xia drank a little bit of wine. Her beautiful face was flushed red, making her look even more lovable and adorable.
"Boss, can you accompany me to stroll around Shanghai's night scene?"
After leaving the restaurant, Kang Xia followed Tan Xiu and whispered.
"Alright!"
Tan Xiu didn't refuse. Kang Xia was his trusted confidant, so he could satisfy her request. After sending Su Quan and the others away, Tan Xiu looked at Chi Nan and said with a smile, "Go back and busy yourself! I'll take Kang Xia to stroll around. "
Chi Nan looked at Kang Xia with a strange expression and asked with a smile, "Boss, how about you drive my car away?"
"No need." Tan Xiu waved his hand and said. "I've drunk some wine. Although driving is not a problem, it's still drunk driving. Let's take a taxi! "
"Alright!"
Chi Nan replied and turned around to walk toward the restaurant.
Tan Xiu then looked at Kang Xia and smilingly asked, "Where do you want to go? When I first arrived in Shanghai, I strolled around with my classmates. It's a metropolis after all, so it's very good. "
"How about going to the Bund?" Kang Xia laughed. "I want to see the night scene of Huangpu River. That's right, it would be even better if we can take a passenger boat to visit Huangpu River at night. "
"All right!"
Tan Xiu nodded. After stopping a taxi, the duo quickly arrived at the Huangpu River passenger boat ticket office. After buying the boat tickets, they accompanied Kang Xia to tour the Huangpu River before they left the boat and returned to the shore. Amidst the crowd, Kang Xia and Tan Xiu walked side by side. Finally, Kang Xia hesitated for a moment before she grabbed Tan Xiu's wrist.
Tan Xiu glanced at her and lightly smiled, "You seem to have a question that you haven't asked yet. You also want to know how I became the Everlasting Feast Hall's Boss?"
"What I want to ask is not how you became the Everlasting Feast Hall's Boss, but that you and Chi Nan seem to have an unusual relationship," said Kang Xia with a smile.
Tan Xiu stared blankly for a moment before he couldn't help laughing and said, "Are you suspecting that we have a relationship between a man and a woman?"
"No," said Kang Xia. "How should I say it? You two seem to be very close, and she respects you very much. That kind of respect doesn't seem to be superficial, but comes from the bottom of her heart. Even though she hides it very well in front of you, she occasionally reveals a trace of … flattery, which I can still observe. "
The smile on Tan Xiu's face slowly disappeared. He stood at the Huangpu River's bank, overlooking the reflection of the lights on the river's surface and calmly said, "Kang Xia, you're very observant. But didn't you notice that her attitude toward you is somewhat unusual? "
"I did. It's not like she's seeing me for the first time. Instead, it's like we're old friends," said Kang Xia. "That's what I can't figure out."
Tang Xiu turned around and looked at her face. He looked at her sparkling eyes that were rippling with a watery halo and seriously said, "How's the cultivation technique I imparted to you?"
"I haven't sensed the kind of aura you mentioned," said Kang Xia.
"You haven't sensed that kind of aura, but she has cultivated True Qi," said Tan Xiu. "Although she has yet to embark on the real cultivation path, she may be able to learn it in the future. All the core members of the Everlasting Feast Hall are our own people. What I said about our own people is that my orders are above everything else. Even if I order them to commit suicide in front of me, they will immediately carry it out. "
Kang Xia was shaken inwardly. She looked at Tan Xiu in disbelief and asked, "Boss, are there still such … loyal people in this world?"
"They're different!" said Tan Xiu. "Their lives don't just belong to them."
Kang Xia shook her head and said, "I don't agree with you, Boss. Their lives are in their hands, and their future path is also theirs to walk. How could it be like what you said … "
"Their path has actually come to an end," Tan Xiu interrupted her and confidently said, "Unless they grow old in obscurity, they must follow my footsteps with vigor. I'll give them their future path, and their lives must be loyal to me. "
"You'll give it to them?" Kang Xia was surprised. "How?"
"Did you forget what I told you when I taught you the cultivation technique?" Tang Xiu chuckled. "Did you forget what I told you when I taught you the cultivation technique? "Becoming stronger can prolong your life. If they can cultivate to the realm I'm looking forward to, their future life will be very long! Not only them, but you as well. Ever since you learned the cultivation method I taught you, your life has been mine. "
Kang Xia was silent for a moment before she suddenly smiled and said, "My soul and body are yours."
"Ugh …"
Tan Xiu stared blankly for a moment. He suddenly recalled the scene of ecstasy with Kang Xia, and his lower abdomen suddenly turned hot.
"Kang Xia, I …"
Tan Xiu opened his mouth.
Kang Xia raised her jade-like finger and gently covered Tan Xiu's lips. She chuckled and said, "I know. You said that you can't give me the identity of a normal husband and wife. But I don't mind it. I'll be satisfied as long as I can occupy a place in your heart. "
Tan Xiu sighed inwardly. He reached out to hug her shoulder and said, "Let's not talk about this. Let's go to other places! "
Kang Xia nodded slightly and didn't speak again. A strange light flashed in her eyes, and no one knew what she was thinking.
After a long while.
Kang Xia then whispered, "I know there's a shopping mall nearby. How about going with me to buy some clothes?"
"Alright!" Tan Xiu said with a smile. "Aside from buying clothes, is there anything else in that shopping mall? I'm going to buy a laptop. People will say that you're illiterate if you don't know anything about computers these days. "
"You don't know anything about computers?" Kang Xia asked in astonishment.
Tan Xiu said, "I can use it for simple operations, but not for difficult ones. I used to have computer classes in junior high and senior high school. But the things he learned at that time were all very shallow things. As a matter of fact, I haven't been using a smartphone for a long time! "
