The afternoon sun is less dazzling than at noon, which means it doesn't have the same warmth as at noon.
Walking out of the alley, Jiang Wan tightened her clothes, glanced left and right, and walked unsteadily towards Wangfu Street.
Unknowingly, he spent almost an entire afternoon in Gao's house. He didn't realize it until the wind blew outside, and he realized that he was actually a little hungry.
At this time, I probably won’t be able to catch up with Ting Yuxuan’s dinner when I go back.
He thought for a while, changed direction, and headed towards Qingyun Tower.
The business at Qingyun Restaurant was as good as ever. It was dinner time and the whole restaurant was very busy.
He walked into the restaurant, nodded to the waiter who was walking towards him, walked directly to the back, opened the backyard curtain and walked in.
If nothing else, Xu Bai should be in the backyard at this time. He has been here so many times, so he doesn't have to compete with people outside for a seat to eat.
"coming!"
Xu Bai was indeed inside, talking to someone. When he saw him walking in, he hurriedly stood up.
Jiang Wan smiled and signaled that the other party did not need to greet her. She found a chair and sat down. She picked up the teapot on the table and poured herself a cup of tea.
"That's it, let them do it quickly. If the winery doesn't have it, just go directly to the winery outside the city..."
Xu Bai sent the guy in front of him away with a few words, and then turned his head with a smile: "You are alone. Where is Xu Jian? Didn't you follow sir?"
"I'm hungry, let's get something to eat here!" Jiang Wan smiled: "Xu Jian is busy with her own affairs and hasn't greeted him these days!"
"Oh, should I ask the kitchen to cook it for you now, or is it more salty for your taste?" Xu Bai shouted towards the outside, gave the order, and then asked curiously: "This guy hasn't been here for the past two days.
Here, I thought he was doing something with his husband, but it seems that after a few days of being a Qianhu, he started to drift away!"
Seeing Jiang Wan shaking his head slightly, Xu Bai's heart sank: "It's not that Mr. Jiang thinks Xu Jian is useless. He is just stupid, but he is quite steady in doing things..."
"It has nothing to do with this!" Jiang Wan smiled: "He has just arrived at the Qianhu Office. The relationship between the superiors and subordinates needs to be developed, and the relationship between colleagues needs to be harmonious. It takes time. What's the matter with following me all day? Don't worry, something is really going on.
When I ask him for help, I will ask and I won’t be polite!”
"That's good, that's good!"
Xu Bai looked very relieved: "I'll go to the kitchen and ask Mr. Jiang to take a sip of tea first. The food and wine will be ready soon!"
After saying that, he stood up and walked out with a smile. When he got to the front, he reached out and called a waiter and said a few words to the waiter in a low voice. When the waiter heard this, he immediately felt relieved about the waiter in his hands. It was extraordinary.
Run out of the restaurant.
Not long after, Xu Jian hurried over with a few people. When he saw Xu Bai, he quickly asked: "Where are the people?"
"They are eating and drinking inside!" Xu Bai pointed to the back: "Go and wait on me. Don't say I asked you to come here, just say you came here to eat!"
"Got it!" Xu Jian pointed to the people behind him: "Brother, please arrange some of them. I'll go see Mr. Jiang first!"
Xu Jian walked in, and when he reached the door of the room, he coughed lightly and shouted into the room: "Mr. Jiang!"
"You're here too!" Jiang Wan raised her head, saw it was him, smiled and pointed at the dishes on the table: "Just right, I've just started, you should come too!"
"Thank you, Mr. Jiang!" Xu Jian walked in and sat in front of Jiang Wan, and said hesitantly: "Mr. Jiang, did Xu Jian do something wrong in the past few days?"
"No, you did a good job!" Jiang Wan held the chopsticks and looked at him sideways: "Why do you ask so suddenly?"
"Then these days, Mr. Jiang would rather take a gangster like Gao Jin to do things than take Xu Jian with him. Is it possible that a person like Gao Jin can do more things than I, Xu Jian?" Xu Jianyi
He looked unconvinced.
"How did you know...?" Jiang Wan's face darkened and she put down her chopsticks: "How did you know that Gao Jin was working with me?"
He stared at Xu Jian closely: "Have you always paid attention to my whereabouts?"
"Don't dare, Xu Jian has the courage!" Xu Jian said a little aggrievedly: "Gao Jin has disappeared these days. I found him for my husband's use at the beginning, but now he has disappeared. Of course I think he is
I’m doing something with my husband!”
"Don't ask about his affairs!" Jiang Wan nodded: "Your current status is not suitable for asking such questions!"
Seeing Xu Jian's confused look, Jiang Wan sighed: "You, Xu Jian, have already had your name in front of the prince. When it is time to use you, I will naturally use you. If you don't need you, there will be no need for you."
For your reasons, you don’t have to think too much, just do your work well at Qianhu Office and make your colleagues get along well with each other. That’s the same as doing things!”
"Well..." Xu Jian breathed a long sigh of relief, "I'm relieved now. To be honest with you, sir, I haven't slept well in the past two days. I thought my husband didn't like what I was doing!"
"That's all you think about!" Jiang Wan smiled: "Let's go, I won't be quiet even after eating, just do your own thing!"
Xu Jian nodded, and when Jiang Wan walked out of the door, she turned around and warned: "No inquiries are allowed about Gao Jin's affairs. If anyone inquires about their whereabouts in the past few days, you must tell me immediately!"
"Understood!" Xu Jian nodded happily: "I will send Mr. out!"
"No need, you're wearing official uniform!" Jiang Wan pointed to him: "There are so many people outside, so if you're not afraid, I'm still afraid!"
After a while, the curtain in the backyard opened and Xu Bai walked in.
"What did you say!?"
"He told me not to think nonsense. There are reasons for using me and not using me!" Xu Jian sighed: "Brother, do you think he came here specially today to say this to me!"
"If your work is really appreciated by him, then he came here specifically to say this!" Xu Bai thought for a while: "If not, then he came here to eat..."
"This..." Xu Jian pointed to the dishes on the table speechlessly: "Then is he really hungry?"
Xu Bai looked back and saw that the plates on the table were empty and had been swept away. He was stunned for a moment. After a long while, he said to himself thoughtfully: "Look.
Come on, I need to give instructions from the kitchen to increase the portion size when cooking for him..."
Xu Jian: "...How about asking the kitchen to cook some more dishes, which will make me hungry too!"
