“You can handle this matter yourself. I’ll go change clothes.” Si Huang’s expression remained as usual. She wouldn’t get angry over a few words for a scumbag that she didn’t like.
Si Huang took away her own set of clothes brought by the waiter. She ignored Li Jiming’s hesitation and went to an unused room to take out the clothes that had been stained with various alcohol and perfume smells and went to change the clothes.
When she walked out, there were only the brothers, Li Jiming and Ji Xiang, left outside. As for Zhao Yang’s whereabouts, she didn’t ask.
When Li Jiming saw her, he took the initiative and said, “Zhao Yang has been sent to the hospital.”
Si Huang nodded and first went to the room where Guan Li entered and knocked on the door.
The door opened within a few seconds, and Guan Li, who had changed into casual clothes, stood at the door. Seeing that Si Huang seemed to be relieved, she asked aloud: “What are you worried about?”
Si Huang chuckled calmly, “I’m afraid that Sister Guan will temporarily not think about it and run away secretly.”
“If I ran away, it would have saved you trouble.”
“My care would be also in vain.” Si Huang said, “I will still feel that I have misjudged Sister Guan.”
Guan Li raised her head with a stubborn look in her eyes, she said: “Don’t worry, I will wait here.”
Si Huang nodded and walked back to Li Jiming, “Let’s wait for the second young master together.”
Li Jiming and the others did not refuse.
Although Second Young Master Dou was a bit scary, he was not a murderer after all, and he would not kill people for no reason. There were many people who still wanted to have contact with him and be connected to him, so they wanted to have dinner with him. Li Jiming and the others were eager to do this and could not refuse.
But what happened was counterproductive. They walked out of the suite and saw Chai Liang walking towards them.
Chai Liang glanced at them and said directly: “Second Young Master is waiting for Si Huang in the sky restaurant.”
Li Jiming and the others understood. Second Young Master Dou obviously wanted to eat with Si Huang alone.
They stopped and Ji Xiang said, “Say hello before you leave.”
“Yeah.” Si Huang was helpless that her idea of having a group dinner came to nothing. After all, Second Young Master Dou was not stupid and would not go according to her plan.
….
The sky restaurant was on the top floor of this building.
Si Huang passed through the VIP member’s special elevator without encountering any unnecessary people and arrived at the location chosen by Second Master Dou smoothly.
The top floor was partially open-air, and there was also a panoramic glass house. The decoration from the inside out was full of a romantic and dreamy atmosphere. The crystal decoration was combined with bonsai greenery, and there were lights that looked like stars. You don’t need to think about it to know that this place must be a favorite place for couples to come on dates.
Si Huang followed Chai Liang and walked in. Except for a handsome foreign waiter in a tuxedo at the counter, there was no one else in the glass room.
Booked the entire place? This thought flashed through Si Huang’s mind, and she thought it would be a good idea to avoid being seen by others. With her current wealth, it wouldn’t be a problem to do it once.
Finally, she saw Dou Wenqing in the corner behind a flower stand in the glass house.
Chai Liang said: “Second Young Master, Master Si is here.” After getting a nod from Dou Wenqing, he left from there consciously.
Si Huang walked over and sat on the sofa chair opposite him. “Have you ordered?”
Dou Wenqing glanced at her and then pressed the service bell on the table.
The only waiter in a tuxedo came over shortly.
Dou Wenqing picked up the menu and spoke a series of fluent and standard English. The waiter carefully recorded it. After he finished speaking, he hesitated and asked: “Do you need anything else? Maybe you can also order a bottle of red wine?”
Dou Wenqing put down the menu.
The waiter understood what he meant and looked at Si Huang again.
As soon as she picked up the menu, she heard the cold voice of Second Young Master Dou opposite him: “I’ve already ordered it for you.”
Si Huang raised her eyelids and glanced at him, maintained a light smile, handed the menu to the waiter, and waved.
The waiter took away the menu and left, “Please wait a moment.” The two of them didn’t wait long. The handsome foreign guy in the tuxedo from before came over with a dinner plate and presented each portion with exquisiteness from the utensils to the workmanship. The dessert cake was served.
That’s right, Second Young Master Dou spoke a lot of English before and ordered not a single main meal, but all desserts or cakes.
Fortunately, Si Huang understood and kept his smile unchanged.
The first batch was delivered, and the handsome foreign man in a tuxedo arranged knives, forks and silver spoons for the two of them and left quietly again.
“Try it.”
Dou Wenqing raised his chin to her, picked up the glass of boiled water on the table, and leaned against the back of the sofa.
He was wearing casual clothes, a gray-blue long-sleeved shirt and loose gray-white casual pants, which did not match this chic and romantic space. However, his temperament was cold and his expression was bland, and he could easily suppress the atmosphere. Even if they don’t match, no one would think that he was wrong. The posture and movements of the second young master drinking water from the glass were not very elegant, but it just gave people a different taste.
Being withdrawn and indifferent did not necessarily mean being gloomy and decadent, but it could still form a certain mysterious charm.
What’s more, Dou Wenqing had good looks, fair skin, light lip color, and hair as black as the night. You could still see his handsome appearance even if you covered your eyes.
Si Huang picked up the small silver fork, selected a dessert at random, cut off a piece casually and put it into her mouth.
She didn’t hate sweets, and the desserts made in high-end restaurants were not greasy, so the sweetness always made people feel good.
“Aren’t you going to eat?” She greeted the second young master politely.
Dou Wenqing shook his head.
Si Huang felt that his gaze after leaving the sea followed him like a shadow. It was not dangerous and sharp, but he kept staring at it.
As an artist, Si Huang was used to being looked at. Even if the other person was Dou Wenqing, she could maintain a calm attitude.
After a while, the second batch of dessert cakes was delivered, and most of the small table was filled.
Dou Wenqing put down the water glass, but it was clear that he had no intention of eating.
Seeing his appearance, an idea flashed in Si Huang’s mind, and a scene similar to the one he had experienced in his previous life appeared.
“Try them all.” After hearing what Second Young Master Dou said, Si Huang picked up her fork resignedly and chose the dessert cake that she liked. She thought to herself: This situation is much better than actually having a meal with Dou Wenqing and competing with him in a battle of wits and courage.
She relaxed even more. Like Dou Wenqing, she relaxed her straight back, lazily leaned back on the chair, picked up a plate of mango ice milk buns, and ate it slowly with a spoon in front of her.
Time passed quietly.
Second Young Master Dou stared at the person without feeling tired, the lines on his face stretched silently, and the aura around him was much softer than usual.
He spoke in a cold and emotionless tone, as if he was talking to himself rather than to Si Huang: “How come there are so many idiots in this world with holes in their brains, who insist on doing good things even if they know it won’t do anything good, and yet they still think they are right if they don’t have the brains? After causing trouble for others, he will beg for mercy and shirk responsibility. He looks so ugly that he wants to step on him to death and feel that his soles are dirty…”
Si Huang raised his eyebrows and said “huh?” and said in his heart: Sure enough! here we go!
