Madam Xiao's close friends were not ordinary people. They were all shrewd and knew exactly what to say at the right time. They would never make a mistake at a critical moment.
Seeing that Madam Xiao was in a hurry and knowing some things about Madam Xiao and her son, a few of them secretly exchanged glances and hurriedly made excuses to leave. Those who did not have an excuse were dragged away by the other madams to make room for Madam Xiao to talk.
Madam Xiao did not ask them to stay and did not even send them off. She stood where she was and apologized profusely. Then she said sincerely, "I'm really sorry this time. Let's meet again next time. I'll treat you to a good time next time."
"Sure, sure, sure. We all know that you have something important to do. Who would blame you? You should have a good chat with Ah Yuan. It's not easy to meet him. He can't waste his time on us. We have nothing to do every day. Let's meet again anytime! "
"That's right, that's right. You don't have to be so polite. We're friends. If you really want to be polite, you can teach me flower arrangement and painting later! "
"You're smart. She's so busy, but she still has to teach you flower arrangement and painting. She really knows how to think. Shulan, don't listen to her nonsense. It's good for us to get together, drink tea, eat dinner, and massage. "
Her friends' understanding made Madam Xiao's expression much better. The smile in her eyes deepened. "Okay, okay, okay. I'll do as you say. I won't send you off. See you next time. "
While Madam Xiao was sending them off, Ye Chien secretly pulled Xia Jinyuan twice and said softly, "Don't be in a hurry to leave. If we want to leave, we'll wait for them to leave first."
Ye Chien was worried that if they left now, these madams who seemed to have some status would definitely spread rumors. Wouldn't that ruin Captain Xia's reputation as a Family?
The meticulous Ye Chien considered this more thoroughly than Xia Jinyuan.
Xia Jinyuan's face darkened. He really had no interest in bonding with Madam Xiao.
"Ah Yuan, why don't we go in and have a chat? We haven't had a good meal together for so many years." After sending her friend away, Mrs. Xiao, who no longer had any scruples, begged, "I don't have any extravagant wishes. I just want to sit down and have a meal with you. We haven't eaten at the same table for too long."
"Sorry, we've already had dinner." Xia Jinyuan remained indifferent and unmoved by Ms. Xiao's pleading. After he finished speaking, he suddenly smirked and said, "It's been a long time since we last ate at the same table. Wasn't that your choice?"
"Ah Yuan, can't you accompany me for a meal?" Madam Xiao tugged at Xia Jinyuan's sleeve. She was almost 60 years old, but she took good care of herself. Even as she pleaded, she still looked a little pitiful. It was really hard to tell that she was a woman who was almost 60 years old. "Just accompany Mom, okay?"
It was the end of the year, and the restaurant was bustling with people. The onlookers had dispersed, and now some diners had stopped in their tracks. Ye Chien pursed his lips, and his expression darkened.
It wouldn't be good if this continued.
"Captain Xia, we can't continue to waste our time here. There are too many guests coming and going." Ye Chien tugged at Xia Jinyuan's sleeve and said, "Just go in with her. It won't be a problem to talk to her. It won't affect you either, right?"
Since Ye Chien had come forward to persuade him, Xia Jinyuan would naturally listen. Moreover, he was really tired of Madam Xiao's pitiful behavior.
