Chapter 139 Participating in the Jewelry Exhibition 3

Mrs. Zhou spoke a few words to them and had just left when several young people came together to greet Attorneys Deng and Lang.

After responding, Attorney Deng introduced Xiaomeng to the younger generation of their family. He also suggested that they exchange contact information with Xiaomeng and add her to their chat group for young people, so that they could show her around.

Xiao Meng thought it would be nice to make more friends around her age. She figured she'd first check out the group; if everyone seemed decent, she could stay. If she found anything amiss, she could always leave.

Xiaomeng readily submitted her group application, and the group admin quickly approved it.

As soon as Xiaomeng entered the group, she saw someone post a group photo from a jewelry appreciation event. It was the same photo she had just taken with her new friends.

Below is a chat box that says, "Welcome Mengmeng to the group. Mengmeng is an important client of my great-aunt. Please give me some face and take good care of her."

"Received, welcome, Mengmeng."

Tang Clan's Seventh Young Master thought, "Huh? I think I know this girl."

Zhou Jia Seventeen: "Alright, your flirting routine is so old-fashioned. Mengmeng, ignore him, he's a little stingy."

At this moment, Tang Clan's Seventh Young Master sent a private message: "Xiao Meng, is that you? You also came to Zhou's Jewelry's appraisal event?"

When Xiaomeng saw the nickname in the private message, she was amazed. What a small world! This "Seventh Young Master of the Tang Family" was actually Tang Yulun.

"Oh, it's Xiao Tang! I didn't recognize him at first glance."

"Yes, I'm at the jewelry appreciation event right now. What's up? You're there too? What a coincidence!"

"What a coincidence! You wait here, I'll come find you."

"There are so many people here, will you be able to find me?"

“I can find it. I know the area very well. I can roughly tell which area you are sitting in just by looking at the background of the photo.”

Not long after, Xiao Tang actually came looking for him.

Xiaomeng noticed that he had dressed up carefully today and looked quite presentable.

The two greeted each other warmly. Xiaomeng introduced Xiaotang to the lawyers. After exchanging pleasantries, Xiaotang asked the staff to move him to sit next to Xiaomeng.

"Aren't you going to school again today? Why did you come all the way to the capital?" Xiaomeng asked him.

"It's nothing, I just took a leave of absence to come to Beijing to celebrate my grandfather's birthday. You're here in Beijing too, aren't you? I remember you work at a museum in Guangzhou, right? Are you here on a business trip?" Xiao Tang asked her in return.

"I guess you could call it a field trip," Xiaomeng replied somewhat vaguely. "But I was invited here to this jewelry appreciation event by Ms. Zhou."

"Oh, I see. I'm here because my cousin invited me. My cousin's husband is a member of the Zhou family, and now my cousin works at Zhou's Jewelry. So I came here today to see for myself."

Do you still need to go out and see the world?

"Of course we need it! The business environment in the north is very different from that in Guangzhou. We should learn from it."

"Then why don't you sit next to your cousin and study properly?" Xiaomeng asked purely out of curiosity.

This question, however, made Xiao Tang look pained. "My cousin is sitting next to all the old men and women from the Zhou family. Those people love to lecture people. It's really uncomfortable. I'd better sit over here and relax."

Who would want to sit at the same table as old men and women when they can sit next to a cute girl? Tang, for one, would much rather sit next to Xiaomeng.

At this moment, the waiters behind us began to serve the appetizers.

"French cream of onion soup. Sigh, it's French food today." Xiao Tang looked unhappy.

"Don't you like French food?" Xiaomeng mimicked him, picking up a silver soup spoon and scooping a spoonful of thick soup from the bottom of the deep dish, taking a sip. It was alright; it was hot, and because of the cream, it was thick, so it must be high in calories.

"It's alright, I wouldn't say I like it or dislike it. I heard they hired a pretty good chef to cook for today's meal, and it seems the quality is acceptable." Xiao Tang said with a critical tone.

Xiaomeng had never eaten French food before, so she couldn't comment on whether the chef's cooking was good or bad. She could only say that, to her taste, the soup was a bit too rich.

The soup was gone in two spoonfuls, and the waiter took the plate away and brought out a piece of foie gras toast.

It's just a small piece of toast topped with an even smaller piece of roasted foie gras.

Xiaomeng popped it into her mouth in one gulp, chewed it carefully, and found it to be quite delicate and fragrant.

At this moment, a waiter pushed a cart of drinks over and asked Xiaomeng which kind of wine she would like to accompany her meal.

Xiaomeng looked at Xiao Tang to see what he would choose.

"Fennel wine," Xiao Tang said.

So Xiaomeng and Xiaxia both chose anise wine to accompany their appetizers.

Just as the caviar appetizer was served, the leader's speech on the stage in front of the table was nearing its end. Xiaomeng and Xiaotang, amidst their busy schedules, took a moment to applaud along with the others.

Immediately afterwards, a host came up on stage, announced the official start of the appreciation event, and invited a special guest singer to the stage for an opening performance.
