Qian’e could not even hide the disdain on her face. Ever since she learned how to dress up, she had met many men who tried to hit on her. However, this was the first time she had seen such a stiff approach.
Even the “annoying” Han Chen had never been so stiff when wooing her. At least he knew how to send her many nice gifts.
“They’re all delicious,” Qiao Mei said mildly.
“Is that so? Let me take a closer look at what you’re eating,” Huang Quan said as he slowly pulled his chair closer to their table when they were not paying attention.
Qian’e immediately yelled out, “Mister, if you want, you can ask the waiter to serve you the exact same dishes. If you move your chair any further, you’re going to drop into our plates. How are we supposed to eat then?”
This shout made everyone around turn to stare at them. Huang Quan was just one move away from moving his chair to their table. He immediately felt a little embarrassed and stood up with a whoosh. He looked at Qian’e and shouted angrily, “What are you saying! I just want to see what dishes you ordered!”
Many people were waiting to watch the commotion. The Huang family was a regular of this restaurant and the security guards all knew Huang Quan t s identity. For a moment, they did not know if they should go forward and dissuade him.
Huang Quan immediately realized that everyone around was looking at him. He quickly put on a fawning expression and looked at Qiao Mei as he said, “I’m so sorry for not being able to control my temper. I actually… actually just want to ask you where you bought your silver bangles. I really like them very much.
It’s going to be my mother’s birthday soon and I want to give her a pair of bangles. ”
Huang Quan came up with a random reason to talk to Qiao Mei. He did not want to return to his own table with his tail between his legs.
However, in Tan Jings eyes, it was like he just told the biggest joke in the world. His mother had just celebrated her birthday and he was lying about everything. She did not expect him to really have designs on Qiao Mei. In that case, she would take advantage of the situation and help him.
“It’s one-of-a-kind. There are no other pieces,” Qiao Mei said.
This pair of silver bangles was something Qiao Mei had casually bought at the antique market and only cost her 10 dollars. The special thing about the bangles was that they did not look like typical bangles. They were weaved with an ancient method to look like two dragons playing pearls, making them look very lively and interesting.
Qiao Mei bought this pair of bangles precisely because of their uniqueness. Moreover, this method and the craftsmanship was probably going to be lost soon. In the future, the price of this pair of bangles might even be comparable to the price of a villa!
“I really like this pair of bangles. How about I buy them at a high price? I’ll pay 100 dollars,” Huang Quan said.
Qian’e had the urge to beat up Huang Quan. He wanted to buy the bangle from Qiao Mei for 100 dollars and he even called that a “high price”. He was really too condescending. The bill for their meal today was already more than 100 dollars!
“No. I also like this pair of bangles very much. Forgive me for not being able to let you have them,” Qiao Mei said politely.
“My mother’s birthday is really coming up. She will definitely like this pair of bangles. I’ll give you 500 dollars so that I can show my love for my mother. Please let me have them,” Huang Quan said pleadingly.
No one would believe that a pair of silver bangles was worth 500 dollars. The sum of 500 dollars was more than enough to buy a pair of gold bangles!
“It’s a no go for 500 dollars and we won’t agree even if you pay 1,000 dollars!” Qian’e angrily grabbed Qiao Mei to leave. Before she left, she even glared fiercely at Tan Jing.
Huang Quan t s eyes widened when he saw them getting into a brand new jeep. People who had cars nowadays must be of very high status. He did not even have his own car and needed to borrow a car from his workplace unit. Every time he wanted to borrow a car, he had to fill in many declaration forms. It was extremely cumbersome.
This made Huang Quan even more determined to get Qiao Mei. He quickly chased after her and got into his car to follow her, leaving Tan Jing sitting alone in the restaurant. No matter how Tan Jing yelled out at him, he turned a deaf ear to her.
The food which Huang Quan ordered just now was even more expensive than what Qiao Mei ordered! It cost more than 500 dollars! It was equivalent to her salary for five months! Her money was gone just like that! Sooner or later, she would get Huang Quan to return her this sum of money!
Qian’e pointed at the rearview mirror and said, “Qiao Mei, look! That person is following us!’
