Chapter 387: Chapter 384: The Joy of Bullying Honest People
Among the people Lin Wanwan knows nowadays, thereās no one more handsome than Lu Shouyue. Not even the top trending young idol Xiao Junning compares.
Thatās because Xiao Junningās baby fat is too noticeable, giving him a bit of a boyish charm. Luckily, he has a cool demeanor; otherwise, heād probably have only mom fans, not girlfriend fans.
Currently, the entertainment world is quite enamored with Xiao Junningās androgynous appearance, combined with his cool persona, plus the added allure of his rolesāitās incredibly appealing.
But personally, Lin Wanwan still prefers the pure, masculine, righteous and handsome style of people like Xiao Chong and Lu Shouyue.
Handsomely spirited, dressed in fine attire, with no hint of femininity.
They say women chasing men is like a thin veil, will this woman overcome Lu Shouyue? She seems very proactive and quite adept at flirting!
Though the woman has obvious signs of cosmetic surgery, it doesnāt prevent her from being pretty. Sheās also quite voluptuous, a type thatās hard for men to resistālike a seductive wildcat.
Lin Wanwan then asked, "Who is this lovely lady?"
"A customer of Buzhou Studio."
Lin Wanwan joked, "Oh? Just a customer, huh? Why is Teacher Lu so aloof? She just wants to share a table, why deny her? Isnāt the customer always king? Donāt worry about feeling awkward just because Iām here, Teacher Lu!"
Lu Shouyue clearly didnāt want to discuss her, having already withdrawn his gaze and focused on the food, casually saying, "Pretty? Didnāt notice. Not compared to some people. If every customer requires the bossās attention, then what value do employees have?"
"Haha, Teacher Lu has high standards!" Lin Wanwan raised an eyebrow, seeing Lu Shouyue was reluctant to say more, she didnāt press further and changed the subject.
"Teacher Lu, Iām opening a physical store in Times Square. Come support me during the opening to boost my popularity."
"Of course!" Lu Shouyue replied affirmatively, then looked up at Lin Wanwan and asked, "What kind of store are you opening? Getting into Times Square is challenging. Did you acquire an existing brand?"
"No, itās my own brand. It was quite difficult to get into Times Square, took a lot of effort," Lin Wanwan said, smiling as she introduced her company.
Lu Shouyue laughed, "I have some connections in Times Square. If Iād known earlier, you could have come to me, saved a lot of time."
"Haha, canāt keep bothering you all the time. I could handle it myself," Lin Wanwan replied with a laugh.
Lu Shouyue smiled lightly, wanting to say heās not afraid of being bothered at all, come bother him anytime.
But the words caught at the tip of his tongue, saying that would make his intentions obvious. Heās not yet brave enough to reveal his feelings, unsure of certain success.
Lin Wanwan continued discussing enthusiastically, "In the future, the confidence of the post-2000s and post-2010s generations in their own culture will grow stronger; the revival of Hanfu is not far off, and this market wonāt be small. Plus, embroidery is a Huaxia intangible cultural heritage. My wish is to promote and preserve it."
"Nice, very thoughtful, I wish you success!" Lu Shouyue said with a smile, "Oh, by the way, now Old Jie has a wine tasting and snack-barbecue event on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays after 9:30 PM, would you care to try it?"
"Wine, huh?" Lin Wanwan wasnāt really interested initially, but thinking it was Jie Yutingās work, she changed her mind, "Sure, Iād love to check that out."
Getting back late wouldnāt be a problem thanks to the time dimension difference between realms. Lin Wanwan now always has ample time wherever she goes.
The late-night snacks need to be reserved for, and bookings can only be made by the person themselves that day, accommodating the first ten guests.
Itās because the wine brew is limited, only enough for ten people.
These guests could bring friends along, as long as theyāre willing to share the good wine.
That night, Lin Wanwan treated dinner, while Lu Shouyue naturally offered the late-night snacks.
Jie Yutingās culinary products never disappoint, even someone like Lin Wanwan who isnāt fond of wine felt a lingering taste after trying it.
Not harsh at all, from entrance to swallowing to reaching the stomach, one sip offered three sensations, even the tongue could taste the flavors of life, containing endless charm, intoxicating on its own without alcohol.
"Good wine! Truly good wine!"
Lin Wanwan exclaimed, wondering if she should emulate Lu Shouyue and frequently visit Jie Yutingās restaurant! Such earthly delights, missing out first-hand is a pity.
Being financially free now, naturally she should pursue the worldās finest food and wine, live a most leisurely life!
"Teacher Lu, howās the cutting of my gems going?"
The nightlights carried a cozy dim warmth of a tavern, giving an irresistible urge to spill oneās thoughts.
But Lin Wanwanās secrets couldnāt be voiced, so she quickly found a topic of her concern to shift the mood.
Lu Shouyue replied, "Barring any surprises, in another week I can give you the gems with their certificates."
"Thanks!" Lin Wanwan raised her glass for a toast with him, "Then Iāll wait for your notice."
"No need to be polite."
After finishing the wonderful wine, guests in the restaurant began to leave one by one. Lu Shouyue noticed Lin Wanwan wanted to linger, so after the last stranger left the restaurant, he cooperated by heading to the restroom.
Lin Wanwan jumped off her chair, ran to the bar, with three points drunkenness, lowered her voice to Jie Yuting, "Boss Jie, I know you have a bottle of wine hidden, right? Wine can surely be taken out, I want to buy it."
Jie Yuting coldly refused, "No, for takeout come over and queue for a reservation on Friday, then you can choose to take it."
Lin Wanwan heard this and took out her phone to send Jie Yuting a few photos, then slightly leaned forward, fixed her eyes on him and said, "Boss Jie, check your WeChat first before deciding."
Here it comes again!
Here comes the threat and temptation again!
Jie Yuting stood still for three seconds, but still took out his phone to check WeChat.
The top message was from Lin Wanwan, containing three photos, showing a massive Golden Cod Fish Roe, a basket of superb seaweed sheet, and a strikingly beautiful large lobster with a gradient blue head.
šš«šš²šØšššššÆšš¹.ššØšŗ
All top-tier seafood delicacies!
For a gourmet like Jie Yuting, seeing these three photos made his breathing instinctively heavier.
After a silent pause, sure enough, he pulled out a bottle of 8 liang wine from under the bar, in a traditional-style bottle, emotionlessly saying, "Take it, eight thousand eight. When will you bring those three items to sell me? Tomorrow?"
Lin Wanwan accepted the wine with a smile, her eyes sparkling with laughter, "Ah? Sell what? I only wanted to show you."
Seeing Jie Yutingās eyes instantly widen, Lin Wanwan couldnāt resist laughing loudly, finally bringing her laughter under control, she said, "Just kidding! But I have some seaweed sheet and the large lobster, can bring them to sell the day after tomorrow, but I canāt bear to part with the Golden Cod Fish Roe."
Jie Yuting: "..."
Do I look like someone who enjoys a joke?!
