In the resplendent restaurant, Huo Beixiao and Gu Nanyin sat opposite each other.In front of them are more than a dozen delicious dishes from all over the world, all of which are prepared by world famous chefs without exception.In normal times, wanting to eat their dishes is not just as simple as spending money.

The servant poured a bottle of red wine that had been preserved for many years into the glasses of the two of them in turn.Huo Beixiao raised his glass first, his eyes fixed on Gu Nanyin's cheek.

"This is our first meal in our new home. We must eat and drink to our heart's content."

Gu Nanyin also raised her glass and nodded, but there seemed to be some element of concern hidden in her expression.

After taking a sip of the wine, the two began to taste the dishes.While eating, Huo Beixiao suddenly asked Gu Nanyin a question.

"Are you still thinking about whether those people will come or not?"

Gu Nanyin raised her eyes and gently wiped her mouth with a napkin.

"Bei Xiao, since they have already greeted you, it seems better for us to wait a little longer."

Huo Beixiao waved his hand gently, "It's not necessary. If they don't come so late, it means that they have changed their minds temporarily. I'm not angry because they broke the contract, I'm already giving face."

Gu Nanyin moved her lips. In fact, she had always had a question in her heart, but due to various reasons, she never asked it out.

"If you have anything to say, just say it. I am willing to discuss issues with you during dinner."

Gu Nanyin was caught off guard by Huo Beixiao's sudden urging, but soon, she smiled wryly and sighed.Because she was very emotional, Huo Beixiao could guess her every move now.On the surface, this seems to be a burden, but from another perspective, isn't this a manifestation of a man's deep love for himself?
Thinking of this, Gu Nanyin instantly relaxed a lot.She picked up her favorite dishes with her chopsticks, and asked Huo Beixiao questions while savoring them carefully.

"Bei Xiao, I really want to know, what role did the four major families play in your acquisition of Star Chain Island?"

Huo Beixiao just concentrated on eating the food, as if this question wasn't worth spending more time thinking about.

"I have given them enough benefits, so they will give me this cake. Of course, I will treat the four of them differently. Some of them I can continue to be partners, while others I have to guard against and avoid They will make trouble for me in the future."

Hearing this, Gu Nanyin seemed a little surprised, "What do you mean by that? Who will make trouble for you?"

Huo Beixiao slowly swallowed the dishes in his mouth, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"Qian Hao and Sun Shi, compared to Zhao Jiayin and Li Chengxun, they are not good things. Maybe if I don't pay attention, these two people will cause me trouble in the territory of City B."

Gu Nanyin murmured and shook her head, "No way? Both the Qian family and the Sun family are rich local families. Will they do something that makes people despised?"

Huo Beixiao glanced at Gu Nanyin, then continued to eat.

"In the face of interests, the so-called quality of a wealthy family is just a cloud. Nanyin, just look at it, whether they come tonight or not, there is something to it."

Gu Nanyin frowned slightly, she knew that Huo Beixiao was not afraid of anything, even if people in the business world had prejudice against him, they would not dare to expose it too much.But people gain a foothold in society, and naturally hope that there are as few enemies as possible.Especially the people they care about, no one wants them to be hurt for no reason.

While Gu Nanyin was thinking about how to persuade Huo Beixiao, the old butler Jason came in from outside the restaurant.

"Mr. Huo, you are waiting for the guests to come."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Nanyin couldn't help but put down her chopsticks, while Huo Beixiao didn't seem to be affected by what he should eat and drink.

"Have all four come?"

"No, there are only Miss Zhao Jiayin and Mr. Li Chengxun."

Huo Beixiao raised his head, sneered and exchanged glances with Gu Nanyin.Then he ordered Jason to lead the guests to the living room, and then ordered the kitchen to cook a new table of dishes.

A few minutes later, Huo Beixiao and Gu Nanyin met the visiting Zhao Jiayin and Li Chengxun in the luxuriously decorated living room.After exchanging pleasantries, the two sides sat down one by one.

Zhao Jiayin looked at Gu Nanyin with sincere joy on his face.

"Miss Gu, congratulations on your marriage with Mr. Huo! When I first heard the news, I was so happy! Because in my heart, I have always thought that you are a perfect match!"

Gu Nanyin's face flushed slightly, she didn't expect Zhao Jiayin to mention this matter as soon as she came up.Although a little caught off guard, Gu Nanyin could still feel the sincerity of Zhao Jiayin's blessing.She also admired this girl very much, and felt that the other person's character was somewhat similar to her own.

"Thank you for your good news! I am very happy to hear your blessing."

Originally, the atmosphere of the four people's conversation was about to develop in a cordial direction, but Huo Beixiao's sudden question to Li Chengxun completely reversed this trend.

"Mr. Li, when are you and Mr. Zhao going to get married? I'm waiting for the wedding wine."

As soon as these words were uttered, the faces of Li Chengxun and Zhao Jiayin turned as red as apples.Gu Nanyin next to him glared at Huo Beixiao, implying that he retracted such an embarrassing question.

However, Huo Beixiao looked indifferent at this time, as if he didn't realize that he had made a mistake in his words.

"What? Are you embarrassed to say it?"

Li Chengxun was forced to have no choice but to bite the bullet and give an answer.

"Mr. Huo, Jiayin and I have not reached the level you said."

Huo Beixiao nodded.

"Oh, is that so? Then you have to work hard."

Li Chengxun took a sneak look at Zhao Jiayin. Although he was embarrassed at this moment, he was a little grateful to Huo Beixiao in his heart.Perhaps after this test, the relationship between him and Zhao Jiayin can take advantage of the situation to move forward.

In order to restore the atmosphere to a normal track, Gu Nanyin made up her mind to speak in person.

"Bei Xiao, don't talk about such an embarrassing topic in front of them. How embarrassing it is! Dinner is probably ready by now. Let's go to the restaurant and chat while eating."

To Gu Nanyin's relief, this time Huo Beixiao followed her advice and got up to lead the guests to the restaurant for dinner.Along the way, Zhao Jiayin praised the decoration style of the castle to Gu Nanyin. She is an artist herself, so she is particularly sensitive to aesthetics.

"Miss Gu, I really like the decoration and scenery here. If you don't dislike it, I want to be a guest again in the future, is that okay?"

Gu Nanyin took Zhao Jiayin's hand and nodded happily.

"Of course! We are good friends, I welcome you to play anytime."

Hearing what Gu Nanyin said, Zhao Jiayin was really happy from the bottom of his heart.

When I came to the restaurant, there was indeed a new table of banquets.After the host and guest were seated, Gu Nanyin got up first and toasted Li Chengxun and Zhao Jiayin.

The four chatted while eating, as if there was no barrier between them.Unfortunately, such a harmonious atmosphere did not last long.
