This time, Bai Zhe, as the host, should arrive at Liuli Pavilion before the guest Ke Qing. Bai Zhe is also a regular customer of Liuli Pavilion. The shopkeeper of the store also greeted him personally, and Bai Zhe also said hello in advance. This time he was entertaining the owner of the World Snake and Yu Heng from the Seven Stars of Liyue. Liuli Pavilion naturally did not dare to do anything. of neglect.
You must know that neither of these two people can afford to offend either of them when they open a restaurant. Naturally, they are eager to serve each other for fear of making the other party unhappy, and they wish they wouldn't even accept Maura.
In the private room, the waiters also looked cautious.
"This time it's the menu. You take a look at it first. If you need anything, just ask me." Bai Zhe held the tea cup in his hand and waved his other hand to signal him to go out first. The waiter was also smart and nodded. He immediately withdrew from the box and closed the door silently.
This time it can be regarded as Bai Zhe's request from Keqing, but in fact it should be regarded as a conspiracy. In essence, it is still Bai Zhe's scheme of things.
Those black and red eyes glanced at the menu on the table. Bai Zhe didn't reach out to take it, let alone have any intention of ordering.
After all, the things we need to talk about later cannot be discussed over a meal, so naturally Keqing comes to order. He just ordered a pot of good green tea and tasted it carefully. The time was almost up. Judging from Keqing's temperament, since she agreed to attend the invitation, she would never be late for a minute.
Sure enough, a rush of footsteps came from the corridor outside, and no one could see the sound.
First there was a polite knock on the door, and then Ke Qing came back in. She was still wearing the same clothes as before. The sweat on her temples showed that she came in a hurry. It seemed that something had gone wrong and she came in such a hurry. , she is really a girl who keeps her promise.
Keqing wiped the sweat from her cheeks and panted slightly, as if she was deliberately restraining her breathing. It seemed that she didn't want to appear rude and inappropriate.
Seeing this, Bai Zhe didn't have any extra words to express. He just stretched out his hand and pointed at the empty seat beside him to signal Keqing to take a seat, and asked the waiter waiting at the door to bring him a bottle of ice water.
When Keqing drank all the ice water in the cup and recovered, Bai Zhe asked jokingly: "Miss Keqing seems to be busy, what happened to her?" Keqing seemed to want to avoid it. Opening up this topic, he added a new glass of water to his cup, smiled faintly at Bai Zhe who was asking the question in front of him, and said, "It's just some trivial matters, so I won't bother you with it. You invited me here this time, maybe you're asking for something from me, right?" . I didn’t expect that a dignified World Snake would ask for help from others, which somewhat surprised me.” I don’t know if Ke Qing’s words were a joke or a hint, but these are irrelevant, after all. Bai Zhe would not do anything he was not sure about. It was obvious that he had decided on Ke Qing this time, but Ke Qing didn't seem to realize the development trend of things.
But it's no wonder. After all, it's difficult for people to see through snakes hiding in the dark. The disguise that blends into the environment is just like the smile on Bai Zhe's face now.
"It's true that I'm asking for something from you, but I prefer another word, called win-win." Bai Zhe pushed the menu on the table in front of Ke Qing.
"Pick what you like, I'm not picky about food." After hearing what Bai Zhedu said, Ke Qing was not a shy person, so naturally she looked at the menu openly and said to the waiter beside her: "One portion of the golden shrimp balls...no, two portions. Look at the fresh seafood. Is Master Qiu in the kitchen today?" The waiter didn't dare to neglect and quickly replied: "Master Qiu is in the kitchen. Please wait." Master Qing, do you want Master Qiu's signature dish of braised sea cucumber with green onions?" Ke Qing nodded, and this guy responded quickly.
"Well, let's get some sea cucumbers roasted with green onions. I'm going to get some fresh seasonal vegetables, and by the way, let's have a pot of iced sour plum soup." The waiter nodded and immediately exited the box.
Bai Zhe played with the tea cup in his hand and stared at Ke Qing and said slowly: "Miss Ke Qing comes to Liulicing Pavilion often. Even the chef in the kitchen knows about it." Ke Qing replied generously: "That's right. Naturally, I am a frequent visitor to Liulic Pavilion and Xinyue Pavilion, but I prefer Liulic Pavilion to Xinyue Pavilion..." Before Keqing could speak, Bai Zhe put down the tea cup in his hand and said slowly: "Because of the golden thread of Liulic Pavilion. The shrimp balls are more delicious?" A look of surprise flashed across Ke Qing's face at first, but it quickly faded from his face. When he thought about it carefully, it was all his own performance, but why didn't he ask Master Qiu? What about sea cucumbers roasted with green onions?
It's a 50% probability, probably just a guess. After all, it's just a matter of choosing one of the two. Bai Zhe smiled indifferently and acted harmless, but Ke Qing would not let down his guard at all. After all, the Tianquan Ningguang had suffered great losses in his hands. Since the initiative was in his own hands this time, he would definitely win more. Interests.
The two of them were eating normally, and then seemed to be chatting about some irrelevant topics, but what Bai Zhe was good at was getting the information he wanted from irrelevant topics.
Suddenly Ke Qing suddenly asked: "I heard that there was a famous actor in the Heyu Teahouse under your control, called Dieyi, right? What is the origin of that girl? Some people even asked me to come here." Bai Zhe put down his hand. With his chopsticks, he touched his chin and asked with squinted eyes: "Well...are you asking this question for others, or is it purely out of curiosity?" Ke Qing thought for a moment and said, "It's just my personal curiosity, by the way. and Paimeng also asked me this question. They are now very close to Mr. Yun. After all, Liyue Port has always been more famous for the Yunhan Society. I knew Mr. Yun’s name even if I had never heard of a play before, but Where did that butterfly garment under your hand come from?"
"Die Yi... Haha, I really can't answer your question right now. When Alicia has had enough fun, the truth will naturally come to light." Ke Qingliu frowned slightly, she didn't understand why Bai Zhe To use the word truth?
It gave her a somewhat subtle feeling. Why did this guy suddenly become the Riddler? Forget it, it wasn't important.
After the two of them had almost finished eating, Bai Zhe ordered the waiter to bring a pot of tea and get ready to talk about business.
After drinking tea to clear the greasy mouth, Keqing knew it was time to talk about business. Ke Qing said straight to the point without any nonsense: "Bai Zhe, why did you invite me here this time?" Bai Zhe smiled lightly and looked at Ke Qing with his black and red eyes. The guy in front of him was a very rich woman.
