Feast for Shengsheng

At 4 p.m., Su Zhenzhen arrived at Beijing Capital International Airport.

Before she came, she must have known about Zhou Jingyan's schedule.

Zhou Jingyan has been in the capital for the past few days.

She got into the car and made a phone call to Zhou Jingyan on the way to the hotel.

This number is certainly not Zhou Jingyan's private number; it's his work number.

With their limited connections, she couldn't possibly obtain what she wanted; Su Zhenzhen was well aware of that.

So He Chen will answer this call.

"Hello, Miss Su," He Chen's polite voice came from behind.

“Assistant He,” Su Zhenzhen said, neither humble nor arrogant, “I just arrived in the capital and remembered that I had to stand up President Zhou last time. Could you please ask him when he is free? I would like to invite him to dinner. I will be in the capital for the rest of the week.”

There was no set time; Zhou Jingyan was given the choice.

He Chen listened calmly and said, "Okay, President Zhou is in a meeting. I'll pass on the message to him later."

"That's troublesome," Su Zhenzhen replied.

Even Su Zhenzhen didn't say much.

Asking He Chen for time is the least appropriate thing to do.

If you want to get close to Zhou Jingyan, you also need to win over He Chen.

If He Chen is willing to help, then your chances are much higher, so He Chen is the person you absolutely cannot offend.

After saying that, Su Zhenzhen hung up the phone and went straight to the hotel.

The hotel is located in the city center, right next to the Zhou Group.

This is naturally purposeful.

The tower near the water gets the moon first.

But Su Zhenzhen didn't need to say anything.

I checked in at 5:20 p.m.

Su Zhenzhen returned to the suite.

From this location, you can see the Zhou Group, which is just across the street from the hotel.

She glanced down at the time, remaining calm and composed.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Her phone never rang except for work calls.

And within her field of vision, she could see that Zhou Jingyan's office light was still on.

This means that the person hasn't finished get off work yet.

At the same time, Zhou Jingyan came out of the conference room, and He Chen walked up to her.

"Miss Su has come to the capital and invited you to dinner," He Chen succinctly relayed to Zhou Jingyan.

"When did this happen?" Zhou Jingyan asked casually.

"The phone arrived when I was supposed to make the call," He Chen replied.

"I understand." Zhou Jingyan nodded. "Leave it for now."

"Okay." He Chen didn't ask any further questions.

This means that Zhou Jingyan will not refuse, nor will he have dinner with Su Zhenzhen today.

In He Chen's view, the two were like a game of strategy.

They just so happens to be intelligent people.

Therefore, in this game, He Chen didn't know who would win or lose.

But outwardly, He Chen couldn't say much.

Su Zhenzhen waited until 7 p.m., but Zhou Jingyan did not give her any reply, so she did not wait any longer.

She invited her classmates to have dinner in the capital that evening.

It's understandable that Zhou Jingyan wouldn't reply immediately.

But she is now in need of someone's help, so she has to wait.

When the time comes, it means it's impossible.

Su Zhenzhen naturally didn't need to take this matter to heart.

The classmate she invited was a guy.

They were best friends who studied together in college back then.

The two have always had a good relationship.

More than friends, not enough lovers.

Everyone maintained a very suitable level of balance.

So over the years, we've gotten along very well.

The restaurant we ate at was a very famous roast duck restaurant in the capital.

The private rooms that were booked in advance will not be affected.

"Didn't we ask you to reserve this private room before?" Cheng Xiao frowned and asked the manager.

The manager looked at Cheng Xiao somewhat awkwardly: "Due to some special reasons, I'm sorry, we can't give you this private room. We'll cover all your expenses tonight."

Cheng Xiao clearly disagreed.

Because that private room had the best location, even better than Jingshan Park, with a view of the entire Forbidden City.

It is absolutely true that ordinary people cannot book it.

Cheng Xiao used all her resources to reserve this private room.

Now it's gone just like that.

"It's okay, let's leave it at that." Su Zhenzhen remained calm.

“Zhenzhen, but…” Cheng Xiao looked at Su Zhenzhen passively.

"It's not important, there will be other opportunities next time," Su Zhenzhen smiled.

Seeing Su Zhenzhen say this, the manager also wisely said, "If Mr. Cheng doesn't mind, I will definitely reserve the private room for you two at this time tomorrow."

The refusal was forced.

Because the person who wanted the private room was Zhou Jingyan.

In making such a choice, the manager certainly knows who he might offend.

"Okay, let's do it tomorrow then." Su Zhenzhen made the decision on her own.

The manager immediately nodded: "I'm very sorry. We'll cover all your expenses tomorrow."

"Okay." Su Zhenzhen nodded.

Seeing Su Zhenzhen say that, Cheng Xiao didn't say anything, but she still felt apologetic.

"I'm so sorry this happened," Cheng Xiao sighed. "I was hoping you could eat Peking duck and see the Forbidden City."

“The capital city isn’t just about Peking duck. Let’s try something else. We can come back here tomorrow,” Su Zhenzhen said with a smile.

"Okay." Cheng Xiao nodded.

There is definitely more than just this to eat.

Cheng Xiao quickly led Su Zhenzhen out.

As the two of them walked to the door, they happened to see Zhou Jingyan come in.

Zhou Jingyan was clearly surprised when he saw Su Zhenzhen.

"President Zhou," Su Zhenzhen greeted him politely and respectfully.

"What a coincidence?" Zhou Jingyan remained calm, clearly surprised.

Then he noticed the man standing next to Su Zhenzhen, who was even quieter.

He didn't recognize the man, so he was clearly not a powerful figure from the capital.

According to Su Zhenzhen's current requirements, this kind of person should not be a potential romantic partner.

so?

On the surface, Zhou Jingyan didn't say anything.

"Yes, I came to eat with friends," Su Zhenzhen replied with a smile. "After all, President Zhou didn't reply, so I figured he was probably too busy."

"Coincidentally, I have some free time now." Zhou Jingyan suddenly changed his tune. "Didn't Miss Su invite me to dinner?"

This has a somewhat deliberately difficult tone.

If Su Zhenzhen refuses, then there will be no next chance.

It's obvious that Su Zhenzhen is being forced to make a choice.

Su Zhenzhen couldn't possibly be unable to tell.

But she smiled and looked at Zhou Jingyan politely.

“I can easily treat Mr. Zhou to dinner. But I also have friends, and I can’t go back on my word. Otherwise, Mr. Zhou will start to doubt my integrity next time, won’t he?” Su Zhenzhen remained composed and unhurried. “I’ll pay for Mr. Zhou’s dinner tonight. Next time, I’ll wait for Mr. Zhou’s notification and prepare in advance.”

Su Zhenzhen did not agree.

This wasn't an act; she couldn't possibly abandon Cheng Xiao.

Furthermore, Zhou Jingyan did it on purpose, and she was well aware of that.

If she really agrees, Cheng Xiao will offend Zhou Jingyan, and Zhou Jingyan won't get away with it either.

Zhou Jingyan is here tonight to meet a client, so it's inappropriate for another woman to be there out of the blue.

Therefore, she spoke very eloquently.
