After entering the private room, Zhuang Mengli and Jiang Xiaotang pulled Lu Yun to sit on the sofa and chat, while Su Yang was pulled to the other side by Chen Guowei for a work report.
Su Yang listened patiently for a while before nodding. Yes, yes, I am quite assured of how you handle things. But I really cannot take care of the restaurant side too much, so I will have to trouble you, the general manager, a lot during normal times.
Chen Guowei grinned. Hey, President Su, do not mention it. This is all within my duties.
Oh right, President Su, I have another matter I want to discuss with you.
Go ahead.
It is like this. Recently, our restaurant's business has been truly booming, to the point where supply cannot meet demand. So the other two vice presidents and I are planning to find another suitable location...
Hearing this, Su Yang interrupted, Opening a branch, right?
Right, exactly, Chen Guowei said with a smile.
Su Yang thought for a moment and said, Opening a branch is a good thing. It is enough that I know about it; as the general manager, you can take full responsibility for the actual execution.
So you have no problem with it?
Why would I have a problem? I definitely support good things, but I have one requirement.
Please speak, President Su.
You can open branches, but you cannot open them randomly or too many of them, otherwise the loss will definitely outweigh the gain. There must be limits. At most, we can only open two more in the entire Haicheng. A total of three will be enough.
Chen Guowei nodded. That is what I was thinking too.
Alright then, you just take full charge of this matter, and I will not interfere. Su Yang said as he took out a cigarette.
Got it, President Su, just leave it to me. But do you have any requirements for the location?
Location? No, I will not interfere. Go with your ideas, you are more professional than me.
Hehe, I would not say that. Chen Guowei laughed.
After the two chatted briefly for a while, Chen Guowei turned his head to look at Old Gao, who was sitting silently to the side, and winked at him.
Receiving the visual cue, Old Gao immediately stood up and walked out of the private room.
Two minutes later, Old Gao returned, but this time he came in carrying a bag in his hand.
Su Yang also noticed this. He tilted his head, took a look, and asked, What is the meaning of this?
Chen Guowei stood up with a smile, took the bag handed over by Old Gao, and then presented it to Su Yang.
President Su, seeing as you usually like to have a smoke or two, I prepared two cartons of good cigarettes for you.
Oh? Just cigarettes?
Yes, yes. This is purely a little personal gift from me to you, nothing else.
Su Yang smiled, took the bag, and looked inside. Inside the bag stood two cartons of cigarettes worth a thousand each, and to the left of the cigarettes were two bottles of rare colored-glaze Moutai.
Did you not say there were only cigarettes?
Uh... I figured you might also like a drink. The items are not worth much, just a little token of my appreciation. President Su, you must accept it.
Su Yang placed the bag on the table, looked at Chen Guowei, and laughed. You guy, you do not happen to need my help with something, do you?
Chen Guowei immediately waved his hands. No, no, no, nothing like that. I really just simply wanted to give you something you like, I have absolutely no other intentions.
At this moment, Old Gao interjected, I can testify for President Chen on this. He actually just wants to build a better relationship with you, President Su.
Hearing this, Su Yang smiled. Although our relationship cannot be called great, it is not bad either. You did not need to do all this.
Hehe, just a small token. I was just afraid you would not like me.
Su Yang rolled his eyes. Alright, alright, I will accept it. I will try to come to the restaurant more often in the future. If we see each other more, our relationship will naturally improve, right?
Right, absolutely.
Alright then, President Su, the two of us will not disturb you guys anymore. We will serve the dishes later when your friends arrive.
Got it, you guys go get busy. Oh right, Old Gao, could you please help receive my friend at the door later?
Yes, President Su. The two said as they nodded to Su Yang, turned around, and walked out of the private room.
After they left, Su Yang shook his head and smiled. This Chen Guowei.
Just as he spoke, his phone rang. Su Yang answered, Hello, Old Meng, are you here?
I am at the door. Are you inside the restaurant?
I am in the private room. There is someone at the door to receive you, named Old Gao. Just let him bring you in.
Alright, I just parked the car. I will come in right away.
OK, what about the others?
I do not know, they should all be on their way.
Got it, I will ask in the group chat.
Hanging up the phone, Su Yang opened the group chat and tagged everyone: @Everyone, where is everybody?
Liu Bo: I am arriving soon.
Ren Lingxi: I am almost there too.
Su Qingci: Me too.
Meng Qianyu: I am with my sister, we are on our way. We will probably arrive in ten minutes.
Su Yang: Got it, just come straight in when you arrive. What about Little Tang?
Tang Ziyun: I will also be there in about ten minutes.
Su Yang: ok.
Exiting the group chat, a knock sounded on the private room door two minutes later.
Su Yang called out, Come in!
Old Gao pushed open the door and stepped aside to let Meng Wenzhou walk in, then he gently closed the door and left.
Meng Wenzhou sported a refreshing textured fringe hairstyle today and wore a very casual outfit.
He wore sunglasses on his face, a silver necklace around his neck, and a Patek Philippe watch on his wrist. His upper body featured a loose white Evisu T-shirt, while his lower body had Chanel gray-black straight-leg jeans, and on his feet was a pair of white Chanel skate shoes.
Overall, he looked clean, refreshing, and handsome.
Su Yang winked at him and smiled, You are here!
As soon as Meng Wenzhou entered, he spotted the three beauties on the sofa not far to the right side of the room. His eyes lit up, and then he walked over to Su Yang: Haven't seen you for a few days, and you have gotten handsomer.
Haha, you look very handsome today too.
While the two were chatting idly, the three girls sitting on the sofa on the other side also turned their heads to look.
Lu Yun tilted her head first and greeted Meng Wenzhou, and then Su Yang waved and called out, Mengli, Xiaotang, come, let me introduce you.
Coming. The two stood up and walked towards Su Yang.
As they walked over, Meng Wenzhou finally got a good look at the faces of these two girls, and upon seeing them, his heart was instantly filled with extreme astonishment.
Holy shit?! These two girls are ridiculously pretty... Old Su, oh Old Su, where on earth did you meet all these top-tier beauties? They are the elite of the elite! This is simply outrageous! Meng Wenzhou thought with a calm expression on his face.
It was not that he had not seen beautiful women before—after all, he was a super-rich second-generation heir—but most of the girls he knew were generally in the 80 to 85 out of 100 range.
Actually, girls in this score range were already very beautiful; they were the type who would turn heads when walking on the street and could completely be called super beauties.
However, these girls that Su Yang knew were one or two tiers higher.
The two stepped forward, and Zhuang Mengli spoke first with a smile, Hello, handsome. I am the mysterious person who was following Su Yang before!
Oh? So it was you?! Haha, I did not expect you to be such a huge beauty!
"Don't be fooled by her appearance. She is incredibly fierce when it comes to fighting," Su Yang said with a laugh from the side.
Hearing this, Zhuang Mengli shook her fist at Su Yang. "There is no need for you to emphasize that!"
Seeing this, Meng Wenzhou let out a hearty laugh. "Your name is Zhuang Mengli, right?"
"That is right. You can call me Mengli or Mengmeng."
"Alright. I should be a bit older than all of you, so if you do not mind, you can call me Old Meng or Brother Meng."
"Then I will call you Old Meng."
"Sure."
After briefly getting to know Zhuang Mengli, Meng Wenzhou looked at Jiang Xiaotang beside her, extended his hand, and gave a polite smile. "And what is your name, beautiful?"
"I am Jiang Xiaotang." She had been quietly observing from the side while Zhuang Mengli and Meng Wenzhou were greeting each other.
From her brief observation, her first impression of Meng Wenzhou was quite positive. Although he was not as handsome as Su Yang, he had an outstanding presence, an elegant demeanor, and a gentle, refined aura about him.
She personally preferred this type of guy. While Su Yang was better looking, he fell more into the category of a sporty guy with a sense of humor, whereas she liked men who were a bit more cultured and refined.
Right now, Meng Wenzhou gave off exactly that kind of vibe.
Seeing him extend his hand, she immediately stepped forward, flashed a sweet smile, and shook Meng Wenzhou's hand. "Brother Meng, you can call me Xiaotang from now on."
"Alright, Xiaotang. I warmly welcome you two beautiful ladies to join us on this trip to the island nation."
