Five hours later, the trio walked out of the airport. Except for two shoulder bags, the rest of the luggage was handed to Meng Jingzhan.

“I have booked a restaurant. I’ll treat the both of you to a meal,” Su Yan said after taking a deep breath.

“Wow, Little Yan Yan is the best. I’m not used to eating food abroad. Which restaurant did you book?” Tang Yitong cheered like a child when she heard that there was food.

Su Yan glanced at her and reminded her, “Big actress Tang, don’t get it wrong. It’s the both of us eating. Look at your stomach. You still have a variety show to take on at the end of the month. Do you want to lose your image?”

Tang Yitong visibly withered. The words of her beautiful boss made her completely give up on the idea of eating. There was nothing she could do. Celebrities needed to watch their figures.

Meng Jingzhan dragged a large pile of luggage and followed behind them. His head was full of black lines as he looked at Tang Yitong’s lively behavior. What kind of aloof goddess was she?

…

Twenty minutes later, Su Yan and the rest arrived at Westin Court. To avoid being photographed by the paparazzi, Su Yan special reserved a seat inside the restaurant. However, before they could sit down, they found two familiar faces sitting on the other side of the aisle to their surprise.

Tang Yitong was about to go up and look for trouble at the sight of Guan Yutong and Wei Zhou chatting. The incident at the clothing store last month was still vivid in her mind. Su Yan had managed to stop her in time and did not want to cause trouble for no reason.

“Should we change to another restaurant? Seeing them makes me lose my appetite,” Tang Yitong said with a frown.

Su Yan said indifferently, “We’ll eat our own while they’ll eat theirs. We won’t look at them.”

Seeing the waiter leave, Tang Yitong looked extremely aggrieved. “No way, Little Yan Yan. We’re close enough to be sisters. Are you really going to treat me like this? The two of you are ordered steak and tempura. But I’m the only one eating boiled cabbage?”

Su Yan teased, “You should be glad that I’m letting you eat. You’ve gained two pounds, don’t you know that? Don’t compare yourself to Little Meng. He’s still young and needs to grow. Moreover, he hasn’t even debuted yet.”

After the dishes were served, the three of them started digging in. After flying for such a long time, they were indeed a little hungry.

“Little Meng, you’re still a child. Such a big arctic shellfish is not suitable for you to eat. Let me help you finish it,” Tang Yitong said as she eyed the food greedily.

Meng Jingzhan looked at her expressionlessly. He picked up the Arctic shellfish and stuffed it into his mouth. Tang Yitong was discouraged and had no choice but to stick a tasteless piece of cabbage into her mouth and chew. Su Yan was trembling with laughter as she watched Tang Yitong. Although Meng Jingzhan didn’t laugh, he had a laughing look in his eyes.

The three of them ate and chatted. With the clown Tang Yitong around, the atmosphere was very lively, forming a sharp contrast with Wei Zhou’s table.

“Brother Xiao Zhou, why don’t you eat? Are these not to your liking?” Guan Yutong asked sweetly.

Wei Zhou sat on the chair. His posture was tall and straight, noble and reserved. However, since the moment he sat down, not only did he not touch the food, he did not even speak a single word. He was like a statue.

“Where’s President Guan? How much longer until he arrives?” Wei Zhou coldly asked. He glanced at Guan Yutong, a hint of impatience flashing through his eyes.

“Brother Xiao Zhou, please wait a little longer. My dad just got off the plane and is on his way here. Don’t worry, I’ve already done my work ahead of time. The collaboration between Excellent Era and Wan Xing will definitely work out.” Guan Yutong laughed as she looked at Wei Zhou with eyes filled with affection.

Su Yan couldn’t help but smirk as she watched Guan Yutong. If she couldn’t even melt this man, Guan Yutong couldn’t do it too. A blockhead will always be a blockhead. No matter how much she did for him, it was useless because he did not care.

“I’ve said it many times. Don’t call me Brother Zhou. I’m not very close to you. Since President Guan hasn’t arrived yet, we shall talk when he is back. Also, the cooperation between Excellent Era and Wan Xing has nothing to do with you. Whether the collaboration works out is entirely dependent on the interests it can bring our companies.” After saying this, Wei Zhou stood up.

“Brother Little Zhou, you…” Guan Yutong was anxious. She was about to stand up to stop him, but Wei Zhou’s gaze stopped her.

“Pfft!” Seeing that Guan Yutong was outrightly rejected by Wei Zhou, Tang Yitong spat out a mouthful of water. Her gaze towards Guan Yutong was filled with epicaricacy.

Su Yan glared at her, hinting that she shouldn’t be so obvious. It was as if Tang Yitong was intentionally making fun of her.

“I’m sorry, I tried to hold it in, but I couldn’t! Hahaha…” Tang Yitong said as she tried to hold back her laughter.. She felt like she was about to hurt herself from suppressing the laughter.
