Chapter 84 Ex-fiancé
Jiang Fanghan said to the waiter, "No more foie gras, I can't stand the taste, and no more orange juice, just get rid of both, we'll just drink water."
"Fang Han."
Jiang Fanghan said to Cui Changjia, "If you are so polite, we won't eat here."
Not only is the taste unpalatable, a serving of French foie gras costs more than 100 yuan, even if Cui Changjia is treating, it can't be so wasteful. Jiang Fanghan thought again, but Cui Changjia is really generous in doing things, and he is not stingy just because his family has no money.
Cui Changjia saw that Jiang Fanghan was not being falsely polite, so he immediately said to the waiter, "Replace the foie gras with pork ribs with preserved plum sauce, and you don't need to cancel the orange juice, just bring it with you."
The pork ribs with preserved plum sauce are half the price of foie gras.
The waiter took note and left with the menu.
"We can just eat something, why waste it like this?" Jiang Fanghan said as she took out a thousand yuan from her bag. "I was so lucky to meet you last time. I panicked when I saw that I didn't have enough money."
"You deserve someone to help you. Maybe if you don't meet me one day, you will meet someone else," Cui Changjia did not refuse and took the money with a smile. "If we must split it, I should say thank you for helping me so much and bringing me such expensive snacks."
Jiang Fanghan also works in sales. She is usually treated as a grandson wherever she goes, and very few people speak to her so nicely. So Cui Changjia's way of speaking makes Jiang Fanghan feel very comfortable, and she feels less distant.
Jiang Fanghan smiled cheerfully and said, "Then let's not be polite?"
Cui Changjia also smiled, "Okay, you're welcome then." She lowered her head, opened her bag, took out a lipstick in a gift box, and handed it to Jiang Fanghan, "I passed by the counter when I came here just now, and I saw that the color of this lipstick is very suitable for you."
Jiang Fanghan often comes here. She knew Cui Changjia's words were false as soon as she heard them. The door of May Restaurant faces the road, and it is impossible to pass by the counter no matter how you walk.
Moreover, this brand of lipstick costs at least two hundred yuan.
"I just said you're welcome, but you're being so polite," Jiang Fanghan said helplessly, "You really treat me like an outsider."
"No, there's a lot of time ahead. If I need your help, you'll have to help me then."
"Okay, don't be so polite next time."
"Okay," Cui Changjia turned around and called the waiter, "Waiter, add some water."
"Has your factory started production? How is business?"
Cui Changjia didn't want to talk too much with Jiang Fanghan, so she just said, "Just making some small things." She changed the subject and asked, "Last time you came, you mentioned your boyfriend. When are you getting married?"
Jiang Fanghan paused and smiled, "I haven't made any plans yet. I don't want to get married for the time being. Dating is so good. There aren't so many things to worry about." She also changed the subject, "It's been so many years since we graduated. Who are you still in contact with now?"
The mood will definitely be different when eating with different people.
Cui Changjia invited Jiang Fanghan to dinner purely out of gratitude, so when she heard Jiang Fanghan talking about her boyfriend, her mood suddenly became gloomy. Seeing this, Cui Changjia stopped asking and continued the topic Jiang Fanghan was talking about.
Cui Changjia was introverted and sensitive in high school, and had little interaction with her classmates. Unlike Jiang Fanghan, she was extroverted and cheerful. Even until now, she basically keeps in touch with all her classmates, and maintains a very good relationship with them.
When Cui Changjia and her friends were almost done eating, a waiter led customers past them. Cui Changjia didn't pay much attention at first, as May Restaurant was always very busy and one would have to wait for a table if they were a little late. However, she clearly felt someone was looking at her, so she instinctively looked in the direction of the gaze.
When she looked over, the man's eyes had not left her, and she happened to meet his gaze. The man who was looking at her was not very tall, and his appearance was average, but the clothes he wore showed that he had some money.
The man frowned when he saw Cui Changjia, as if Cui Changjia was a disgusting person.
"Can you hurry up? I'm starving," the girl walking in front of him tugged at the man's sleeve and complained as they walked, "I asked you to reserve a table but you didn't even do it."
The man smiled disdainfully at Cui Changjia, raised his head slightly, made an arrogant look, retracted his gaze, and followed the girl's pace.
The girl is not short, has a well-proportioned figure, and has big brown wavy hair. She is very beautiful.
Cui Changjia also withdrew his gaze.
Jiang Fanghan asked, "Know him?"
Cui Changjia smiled and said, "I was engaged before, but I called it off after something happened at home."
That’s right, the man was Cui Changjia’s ex-fiancé Ye Mingzhi. I didn’t expect that he had a girlfriend so soon, and she was quite pretty.
"Him?" Jiang Fanghan looked incredulous. "What kind of vision do you have? He looks like this, unless he has someone in his family."
Jiang Fanghan didn't say anything more. She forgot that Cui Changjia's family was wealthy and the man she was engaged to must be very rich.
Jiang Fanghan was also good at talking, and quickly tried to make amends, "It's over now, I'll introduce you to someone later, any one of them will be better looking than him!"
"Okay, wait for me to calm down and introduce him to me." Cui Changjia thought for a while and finally asked casually, "Do you know what Zhou Qingyan is doing now? Why do people say he is so rich?"
"You don't know?" Jiang Fanghan was surprised, but quickly reacted and smiled, "That's right, you don't contact us very often. He does logistics and express delivery. He has more than a dozen of those super-large trucks for transporting chemical supplies. It's amazing! I heard that the freight for a super-large tank truck for transporting chemical supplies is tens of thousands. How rich do you think Zhou Qingyan must be?"
Cui Changjia knew that Zhou Qingyan was working in logistics, but she didn’t know that Zhou Qingyan was working in express delivery.
"What kind of delivery does he do?"
"Oriental Express."
Cui Changjia was surprised. She didn't know that Oriental Express was actually run by Zhou Qingyan.
Jiang Fanghan's focus and Cui Changjia's focus are obviously not on the same line. Jiang Fanghan is concerned about the current logistics truck transportation, but Cui Changjia is concerned about the rapid development of Oriental Express in the future.
"No way," Cui Changjia thought for a moment and said, "I seem to remember that the boss of Oriental Express is called Yu Congcong."
Although Cui Changjia didn't know that Oriental Express existed now, she knew that in the future when the express delivery industry was highly developed, Oriental Express would occupy a large market share and its annual revenue would start from tens of billions.
Oriental Express has stood up to the country in the face of many disasters, and Yu Congcong has been interviewed many times. How could Cui Changjia remember it wrong?
"Ah, isn't it Zhou Qingyan?" Jiang Fanghan was obviously even more surprised, "Who is Yu Congcong? I've never heard of him?"
