Rebirth 78 was replaced by a husband, the cold educated youth pulled the curtains every day

“She actually came to pay back the money.”

Su Yunjie said something with some surprise, then stood up and followed Lu Ye outside.

He did not forget the task Su Mengyao gave him.

The three of them came to the front desk downstairs and saw Shu Wen, who still had her hair tied in a high ponytail.

Compared to the first time they met, Shu Wen was now wearing a pair of slim-fit jeans.

She was wearing a women's shirt with the bottom corner tied at her abdomen. She exuded youthful vitality and radiated from the inside out.

"Fortunately, you are still here."

Shu Wen seemed very happy to see Lu Ye.

"Have you contacted your family?"

Seeing Shu Wen smiling and looking in good spirits, Lu Ye guessed that this wealthy girl from Hong Kong must have escaped from her predicament.

Shu Wen smiled and nodded. "Although I haven't received my new passport yet, I have already contacted my family. I also want to thank you for your help back then."

Shu Wen took out the banknotes she had prepared in advance from her pocket, spread them out, and handed them to Lu Ye with both hands.

"Thanks to that $300, I was able to hold on until I could contact my family. Otherwise, I don't know what would have happened."

"Now I'll give you the money back."

Lu Ye took the money and asked in surprise, "Did your family send you money?"

Although Hong Kong and Guangzhou are separated by only a sea, they still belong to two sovereign states. Even if Shu Wen contacted her family, she would not be able to get the remittance so quickly.

“The remittance process is too slow.”

"My father has an old friend who was investigating business in Guangzhou. When he learned I was in Guangzhou, my father contacted this old friend, and he helped me."

It turned out to be the case.

China's drastic reforms focused on economic development and created many convenient conditions.

This also attracted the attention of many Hong Kong merchants.

Compared with the expensive labor and land in Hong Kong, Guangzhou, which is only separated by a sea, undoubtedly has a huge advantage.

Many far-sighted Hong Kong businessmen have set foot on this land, and many have invested in building factories.

Undoubtedly, this group of people also benefited from the reform and made a fortune.

Shu Wen looked at Lu Ye and said softly, "During this period, I will also live here and wait for my new passport."

"I would like to treat you to a meal to express my gratitude."

"There's no need to treat me to a meal. It's just a small favor, and you've already paid me back. There's really no need to be so polite." Lu Ye replied.

"need."

"There's a Western restaurant on the second floor. I've already reserved a table. Let's go over there now."

Seeing Shu Wen insisting again and again, Lu Ye couldn't refuse anymore, otherwise it would be too disrespectful.

He glanced at Su Yunjie and Zhao Xiaolong beside him.

Lu Ye smiled and said, "Then we won't be polite."

Seeing Lu Ye agreed, Shu Wen also smiled happily.

The Western restaurant in the Oriental Hotel is decorated entirely in Western simple European style.

The mosaic tiles, Western-style lamps and soft furnishings, and even the tableware on the table are all Western style.

As soon as you step inside, you will feel as if you are really in a foreign country.

At the entrance of the restaurant, there was a receptionist in a shirt and vest. Upon seeing the few people, he said respectfully, "Good afternoon, distinguished guests."

"Hello, I have a reservation."

"May I ask your surname?"

"My last name is Shu."

The receptionist looked through the reservation register and quickly found Ms. Shu's name.

"Hello, Ms. Shu, distinguished guests, please follow me."

Led by the receptionist, several people walked into the restaurant.

Not only is the decoration style here simple European, but even the service staff are trained completely according to other people's standards.

Soon, they came to a dining table with a window.

After everyone took their seats.

The waiter brought several menus and handed them to several people.

"Just order whatever you want to eat." Shu Wen said politely to Lu Ye and the others.

Looking at the pictures and words on the menu, Zhao Xiaolong was a little confused.

He had been to many restaurants, but he had never seen a menu like this one.

It was his first time eating Western food, and he didn't understand the separate dining system.

Zhao Xiaolong looked at Lu Ye: "Brother Ye, you guys order."

Seeing Zhao Xiaolong close the menu, Su Yunjie, who was sitting next to him, smiled and gently pulled his sleeve.

He whispered in his ear, "When eating Western food, everyone has their own portion and orders their own food. This is different from the way we eat."

After hearing this, Zhao Xiaolong realized that he had just made a fool of himself.

In front of Shu Wen, Zhao Xiaolong's face turned a little red.

Seeing this, Lu Ye said, "Foreigners are always stingy when it comes to food, unlike us who like to share. I'm a greedy person and want to try every dish. Xiaolong, I'll order a few more dishes so we can eat together."

Zhao Xiaolong nodded hurriedly: "Okay."

"Brother-in-law, please order for me too. Without beetroot soup, I don't know what to eat. I'll just eat with you guys." Su Yunjie also spoke.

Shu Wen hadn't expected such a situation to happen, but she also thought it was quite interesting. Today she was treating the guests, and she couldn't embarrass them, so Shu Wen also agreed:

"Food is meant to serve people, and a pleasant meal is what's most important. Why don't we follow the Chinese custom and order and eat together?"

"Okay, that's good." Su Yunjie smiled when he heard that.

Lu Ye also nodded, took the menu, and said directly to the waiter:

"For the appetizer, I'd like a caviar salad, a baked snail, a salmon sashimi, and a pan-fried baguette with garlic mushrooms."

"For soup, I want two orders of cream of mushroom soup and two orders of borscht."

"Main course?" Lu Ye looked at Shu Wen, his eyes full of questions.

Shu Wen quickly understood what Lu Ye meant, so she said softly, "I'm fine, I don't have any dietary restrictions."

Lu Ye nodded. "Okay, two rare steaks, one tomahawk steak, and one tuna steak. For the side dishes, four servings of pasta, two servings of black pepper, and two servings of tomatoes. For dessert, two servings of tiramisu and two servings of pudding."

Lu Ye skillfully took the order in less than a minute.

"Okay sir, would you like something to drink?"

Lu Ye opened the wine list and glanced at it casually.

The wine list is mostly French red wines, with limited varieties. At the top is Lafite, which is also the most expensive, followed by Margaux, Bauclean and Baron.

Although they are all red wines from big wineries, they are not all the most expensive items.

Lu Ye picked out a bottle of Margaux red wine priced at $200.

Dry red wine with steak is the most classic combination.

After ordering the wine, Lu Ye handed the menu and wine list to the waiter and deliberately instructed: "Cut all the main dishes before serving."

"Okay sir, please wait a moment."
