“No, this plan is not workable. Sister Feng Hua’s son is getting married this year. How can she come to Lian City because of me? They already need all the help they can get at home. Forget it, I’ll think of another way. Let’s go and find another place to stay first,” Qiao Mei said with a sigh.

In any case, there was no hurry to live in the Lian City house. After being abandoned for so many years, it did not matter if it was abandoned for a few more months. Qiao Mei and Qian’e found a local guest house to stay the night and unpacked before driving to a famous local restaurant for a meal. They had heard that the chef in this restaurant was very good. He was even a state banquet chef!

Every month, this chef would set aside three days to specially cook for the guests who booked a private room. No matter how difficult the dishes were, he could make them. Furthermore, he would also come up with different menus for the guests according to their preferences. This could be considered the highlight of this restaurant.

Qiao Mei ordered a few of the restaurant’s signature dishes. The two of them did not like crowds and chose a table by the window. However, their beauty had already caught the attention of the entire restaurant.

One was beautiful and charming, while the other was as pretty as a flower. It was already good enough that no one came to approach them. Qiao Mei was still worried that someone would disturb their peace!

“It’s really too difficult to get a reservation at this restaurant. There are no slots for the private rooms for the next month. We’ll have to miss out on the chefs cooking today. Just make do with the meal today. When I manage to get a private room, I’ll drive you here to eat,” Qiao Mei said regretfully.

“So there are still reservations that you can’t get. Is it because you did not tell anyone about your identity and just called up to ask casually? If you say that you’re the Xia family’s daughter-in-law, there’ll surely be many people who are willing to give up their private room to you,” Qian’e said with a laugh.

“When have you ever seen me use this identity? It’s better to keep a low profile. If we ask for special treatment all the time, won’t that just attract unwanted attention? It’s not like I’m dying to eat in the private room. I think it’s not too bad out here. If there’s any dish you want to eat, I can make it for you. I think my cooking is not too bad too,” Qiao Mei said confidently.

“I also think that your cooking is nicer, but we should still book a private room for dinner next time. Look at how the people around keep looking at us. Fortunately, the security in this cafeteria is quite good, so the men dare not come close and cause trouble. Otherwise, there will definitely be a commotion. It’s your fault for being so beautiful,” Qian’e said proudly.

“You’re not too bad yourself,” Qiao Mei said as she raised her eyebrows.

Just as Qiao Mei and Qian’e were chatting, two familiar faces suddenly appeared at the door. To be precise, it was one familiar face coming in with her partner.

Through He Nings introduction, Tan Jing managed to hook up with the new police chief, Huang Quan. Coincidentally, Huang Quan’s mother celebrated her birthday a few days ago and Huang Quan took the opportunity to bring Tan Jing back to his hometown to meet his family. Huang Quan’s parents were very happy with their future daughter-in-law and even urged Huang Quan to marry Tan Jing quickly.

In order to make Tan Jing happy, Huang Quan had put in a lot of effort to book a private room in this restaurant. The moment Tan Jing entered, she was stunned by what she saw. She never imagined that she would run into Qiao Mei in this place. This woman was like a lingering spirit.

Huang Quan looked at Tan Jing in confusion and asked, “Why are you standing here? Go in!”

As soon as he spoke, he followed Tan Jings line of sight and saw Qiao Mei. He had never seen such a beautiful woman in his life. She looked like a budding rose and he found her to be very attractive. The dishes on Qiao Mei’s table cost more than 300 dollars, which was not something that ordinary families could afford. Such a young and beautiful woman from a wealthy family should be his partner!

He had thought that Tan Jing was quite good-looking. After all, she led a pampered life in the Xia family for so many years, so she was definitely much prettier than those women outside who had to earn their keep. He only tolerated Tan Jings arrogant temper because of that.

Now that he saw Qiao Mei, he forgot about all those things. He did not care about the engagement or buying a house anymore. He only wanted to get Qiao Mei’s contact information immediately.

When Tan Jing saw the look in Huang Quan!s eyes, she really felt like killing Qiao Mei. Back then, Xia Wen had been charmed by Qiao Mei’s children and now, Qiao Mei had suddenly appeared to charm her fiancé..
