Yu Nian wasn't sure, so she called Lao Liu after washing up.
Lao Liu told her that Mr. Yan was indeed busy last night and did not return to the room.
Yu Nian got up late today. When the housekeeper called her to ask about her meal, she told her that breakfast and lunch were together, so just prepare a meal in the morning. After thinking about it, she asked the housekeeper not to prepare anything, and she went directly to the restaurant to eat.
After hearing this, the housekeeper told her the specific location of the restaurant, asked her about her preferences, and informed the restaurant as soon as possible to prepare to go. Yu Nian went to the restaurant just before noon. It wasn't that he was hungry, but he just felt it was time to eat.
The elevator was designed with a view. Looking down from a height of more than 90 floors, Yu Nian felt dizzy and a few times in a trance. As she got higher and higher from the ground, she felt inexplicably tired and tired, and she also felt trapped and unable to break free from the cage.
She wanted to do something, but she couldn't do anything. Her hands and feet were tied tightly, making it difficult for her to move. After all, humans are not birds. They cannot be as free as they float in the air.
There are seven restaurants in the hotel, which are located on different floors of the hotel. In addition to the buffet restaurant on the first floor, the other six restaurants can cover all kinds of delicacies from around the world. The higher the floor, the higher the consumption.
The elevator reaches the 100th floor, which is known as the restaurant in the clouds. As soon as you get out of the elevator, your eyes suddenly open up. Surrounded by an almost 360-degree view of the scenery, you will mistakenly think that you are really standing in the clouds because of the sea and sky.
The per capita consumption of Cloud Restaurant is high. Inside the hotel, it caters more to guests on executive floors and above. Externally, it caters to high-income people and social elite groups, so it is not as busy as Internet celebrity restaurants, especially at lunch. , those who can dine here are basically hotel guests.
Yu Nian saw the Jiang Nian Banquet and sat with the three of them at a table by the window not far away. Lao Liu sat at the table next to him and ate while reading a magazine. He seemed to be leisurely, but in fact he was watching all directions and listening to all directions. He will be alert to anything unusual around him.
As expected, Jiang Nian Yan did not return to the hotel room. He was still wearing the same clothes he changed into last night. However, he took off his suit jacket and placed it on the back of the chair aside. The dark shirt fit him snugly, making his figure look very upright. Maybe it was because he was in a restaurant, not as serious as in an office. Two buttons of his shirt were unbuttoned, showing a bit of temptation despite his abstinence.
Yu Nian did not move forward to join in, but chose another seat by the window to sit down, and ordered a cup of coffee and two light dishes. The restaurant focuses on a wide view, so the interior design is not that complicated. Although Yu Nian and Jiang Nianyan were a bit far away, they were both sitting at an angle from the window, so she could see his situation.
The people at his table looked more like his subordinates than the group he saw yesterday. She understood immediately that Jiang Nianyan had already established his own team in Nanzhou and was not here to open up new territories as she thought.
Obviously, he looked very relaxed when he was with his men, not as serious as usual, and she seemed to see him smiling, his eyebrows stretched out confidently and freely, very carefree and unrestrained.
Just like another person.
Yu Nian couldn't tell. In her impression, Ayan was silent and reserved, and even when he was very young, he could still see the ruthlessness in his bones. When they reunited at the Houjiang New Year Banquet, they were more sinister, paranoid, and moody, especially what was hidden under their calm demeanor was even more ruthless than when they were young.
Even if he was smiling when talking to her, she could always feel the coldness and manipulation deep in his smiling eyes.
This was the first time she had seen such a Jiang Nian banquet.
Perhaps, his past is a heavy shell for him, including his current identity as a member of the Jiang family.
is that so?
It wasn't until he heard the conversation of the woman at the next table that Yu Nian realized that he had just lost his mind and seemed to be paying too much attention to Jiang Nian Banquet.
She turned to look at the scenery outside the window. It was still very cold up there.
The woman at the next table was still whispering in my ear——
"That man is so handsome, he's my type."
"Don't tell me you're fishing for men here."
"What's wrong with fishing for a man? What if I catch one?"
"How do you want to fish?"
A moment of silence...
"I took the initiative to add him on WeChat. Who doesn't want to be elegant when dining here? Even if you don't pretend to be elegant, you still have to pretend to be elegant. If a girl takes the initiative, she must be more gentleman, right?"
Yu Nian turned his head again and looked at the two ladies at the next table.
In fact, the distance between the dining tables is acceptable, and there is enough private dining space, but the restaurant is too quiet, even the music is as light as water, so it is convenient for Yu Nian to listen to the "corner".
A woman who looks less than thirty years old. Her skin is exquisitely maintained and her makeup is carefully applied. Judging from her clothing, she can be regarded as an elite. There are many companies nearby, many of them are in finance, and nine out of ten are in the field. This works.
Yu Nian became interested for a moment. She was quite curious about what it would be like to be hit on by someone at the Jiang Nian Banquet.
The woman directly opposite stood up and planned to launch an active attack.
Her appearance is as exquisite as her clothes, and she has a pretty good figure. She has the ability to pick up high-quality men. No wonder she is very confident.
I don't know why Yu Nian is still nervous.
Who are you nervous about?
Nervous about the Jiang New Year Banquet? Or are you nervous for that woman?
Yu Nian tilted his face and followed the woman's figure with his eyes from time to time. After all, this kind of thing was too fair and it was not polite to look at it.
Looking at her companions who are also paying attention to her all the time, with smiles on their faces, it seems that this is not the first time for them.
The woman stepped forward...
However, before he could get close to Jiang Nian Yan, he saw Old Liu getting up and stopping the woman like Cheng Yaojin who had come out halfway, isolating her from Jiang Nian Yan.
Yu Nian sighed, almost forgetting that there was Lao Liu, a personal bodyguard.
Yu Nian couldn't hear clearly what the woman said specifically. He could feel that she was anxious and shy, which meant that she really wanted to come forward. However, Old Liu was stoic and kept shaking his head at her.
As for Jiang Nianyan, he turned a blind eye, as if the woman in front of him didn't exist at all. How could he not see or hear at such a close distance?
His men didn't look around curiously, so Yu Nian understood that it seemed that being accosted at Jiang Nian's banquet often happened, so often that even his men didn't think it was worth "watching".
The woman came back with an extremely ugly face.
After she sat down, her companion kept comforting her.
Yu Nian vaguely heard the woman's disdainful tone, "It's great to have a bodyguard. Why is he so awesome? He looks like a human being, but I can't stand it."
Yu Nian was thinking about it in his mind. What would happen if this woman pointed at Jiang Nianyan and yelled, "Why are you so awesome!"
can not imagine.
But it is estimated that the most direct outcome for this woman is to be escorted out by Old Liu, while Jiang Nian's banquet is still chatting and laughing.
For a moment, Yu Nian admired Jiang Nianyan's "indifferent attitude".
Just a small episode.
The people dining here did not go there to watch the excitement, and soon stopped paying attention to this matter. So the two women didn't leave, and continued to eat leisurely.
Yu Nian admired them again.
In other words, she might have packed up her bag and left.
Since you can't get it, it's a waste of time to even live under the same roof with him.
The two women ate deliciously and were talking and laughing again, as if the embarrassing scene just now didn't happen. Adults are not forgetful, but good at selective forgetting.
Her meal arrived.
Unexpectedly, two restaurant staff came over. One led the way, and the one behind pushed the dining cart towards her. When Yu Nian got closer, he saw that the person leading the way was the restaurant manager.
Just as she was surprised, the restaurant manager came up to her and said respectfully, "Miss Yu, your meal has arrived."
She lived in a presidential suite, and the housekeeper would greet the restaurant in advance, so it was normal for the restaurant manager to know her last name, and Yu Nian didn't take it seriously.
But then she saw the restaurant manager bring a glass of orange juice. She was surprised and told her softly, "Sorry, I ordered coffee."
The restaurant manager smiled slightly, "Master Yan has already told the restaurant that drinking coffee at this time will not be good for your sleep, so we changed it to orange juice."
This time...
It’s just noon!
Yu Nian subconsciously glanced in the direction of Jiang Nian's banquet.
From the distance, she couldn't be sure if he was looking this way. His men seemed to be discussing something, and he listened calmly.
"In addition," the restaurant manager continued, "the meal you ordered was too light, so Mr. Yan ordered a new menu for you."
When it was served, there was one meat, one vegetable, one soup, and a small plate of exquisite pastries.
Not only is it delicious and delicious, it is also nutritionally balanced.
"Use it slowly."
After the restaurant manager left, Yu Nian didn't move her chopsticks. She stared at the food on the table motionlessly, not knowing what it felt like.
Rejected?
No, after all, this set meal was indeed much more thoughtful than the one she just randomly ordered.
Are you happy to accept it?
Not, at least not very happily.
This is like what it feels like, his eyes are staring at her all the time, everywhere, as if a rope is wrapped around her body, getting tighter and tighter.
I lost my appetite for a moment.
Yu Nian picked up the orange juice and took two sips. The sweetness and sourness were just right, and the refreshing orange aroma lingered on his lips and teeth. She sipped the orange juice bit by bit until the glass was full, and the light above her head was blocked.
It's Lao Liu who's here.
When Yu Nian raised his eyes, he also caught sight of the movement at the next table. The two women looked over together. After all, Lao Liu was half their enemy.
Lao Liu didn't sit down, so he stood respectfully next to Yu Nian and whispered to her, "Miss Yu, is the food not to your liking? If you don't like it, I'll ask the restaurant to make it again."
Yu Nian's feeling of suffocation came again.
She said to Lao Liu, "No need, I'm just not very hungry."
Old Liu nodded slightly.
"Those people..." Yu Nian asked hesitantly, "Are they members of the project team?"
After asking, I realized it was not good, so I added, "It doesn't matter. If it's inconvenient, you don't have to say anything."
Old Liu smiled and said, "Actually, it's not inconvenient. Those people are indeed from the project team here in Nanzhou. The ones Miss Yu saw are all directors of the project team."
Yu Nian was surprised, "In other words, they are not part of the same project team?"
"Of course not." Old Liu answered all questions, "Projects here in Nanzhou are being rolled out one after another. How can there be enough manpower for a single project team? This project is complicated, and the current project team is also If it’s not enough, Master Yan is considering continuing to recruit people.”
Yu Nian was secretly shocked. She had thought too little.
"Young Master Yan was just meeting with them last night?" Yu Nian asked again.
Old Liu said, "That's not entirely true. There was a social event before the meeting. Mr. Yan drank some wine at the table. Maybe he was afraid of disturbing Miss Yu, so his work was interrupted."
"Wait, drinking?" Yu Nian thought about it in his mind, "In other words, he went to socialize with me after dinner?"
Lao Liu nodded, "Yes, originally the entertainment was scheduled to be at six o'clock in the evening, but..."
Yu Nian raised his eyes and looked at him.
"But Miss Yu is outside." Old Liu said.
Yu Nian was suffocated.
"I was supposed to pick up Miss Yu last evening, but later I don't know why Mr. Yan drove away in person, and the originally scheduled entertainment was postponed because of him." After thinking about this, Old Liu said for a long time. , "Let me tell you something that may offend you. Miss Yu's behavior yesterday was undesirable."
Of course she knew it wasn't advisable.
As soon as her mind changed, she asked pretending to be confused, "You mean, I disturbed Mr. Yan?"
"It's not an interruption, it's a disturbance." Old Liu corrected her choice of words, "Young Master Yan doesn't like to be disturbed by others. It can be said that he hates it. So Miss Yu, you better not do that next time. This is not the first time, Mr. Yan." Always patient.”
After Yu Nian heard these words, although he looked aggrieved on the surface, he was actually cheering for joy in his heart. If this old Liu didn't have a serious look on his face, she would definitely think that he was just pretending to tell the truth.
Okay, just know the shortcomings of Jiangnian Banquet.
Disgusted?
Isn't this what she was waiting for?
After Lao Liu left, Yu Nian suddenly felt good and started using his chopsticks. While eating, she always felt that someone was staring at her across the way. She raised her eyes and met the scrutinizing gaze of the woman at the next table.
The look in his eyes couldn't be more obvious, as if to say: Why is he looking at me so fiercely, but treating you so respectfully?
Yu Nian smiled at her.
The woman looked away angrily.
Yu Nian bit the red glass straw, making her lips look redder and her teeth whiter.
Well, ignore her.
Eat silently.
As I was eating, I heard the table next to me clearing my throat.
Yu Nian subconsciously raised his eyes.
Startled.
I saw Jiang Nianyan walking towards this side, followed by people from the project team.
It's time to finish eating.
The table next to him cleared his throat to remind his companion to take a look, but he didn't want to remind Yu Nian. Yu Nian wanted to pretend to turn a blind eye, but when she saw Jiang Nianyan coming towards her, his intention was very obvious.
In the end, Jiang Nianyan walked up to Yu Nian under the eyes of the woman at the next table, pulled up a chair and sat down.
How "vicious" is this move?
Even though Jiang Nianyan's broad figure blocked the gaze from behind, Yu Nian could still feel the hostility from the table next door.
Fortunately, I don’t know him.
"Do you have any plans for the afternoon?" Jiang Nianyan asked.
Yu Nian didn't know the purpose of his question, so he said, "No arrangements."
Jiang Nianyan nodded slightly, "If you don't have any arrangements, just stop running around in the hotel."
"Running around?" Yu Nian felt that this word was describing a child who had no ability to take care of himself.
Jiang Nianyan half-smiled, "I thought I used the wrong adjective. I meant to stay in the hotel and rest. I have a meeting in the afternoon and am quite busy."
