Six bucks for such a small piece?
Oh, my God.
"I, I wonât eat it, Chiang Xiao, you can have it." Xie Landi quickly handed the piece of dessert to Chiang Xiao as if sheâd been shocked. At the same time, she looked at Qin Xiaojun and Wang Lili, somewhat puzzled. Knowing how expensive it was, how dared they eat it?
Six bucks, enough to feed her for several days, and yet this little piece could be eaten in a single bite.
Qin Xiaojun and Wang Lili, coming from well-off families, found the tea refreshments pricey, but since Chiang Xiao brought them, it wasnât enough of a reason to shy away.
Moreover, given their limited understanding of Chiang Xiao, she had brought it over for them to eat. She wouldnât mind.
They were already aware of Chiang Xiaoâs background.
After Wang Lili saw her with Tang Qing last time, she mentioned it at home and learned then that Chiang Xiao was the granddaughter-in-law of the Meng Family in Capital City, Meng Xinianâs fiancĂ©e, Liu Guoyingâs student. Also, there had been a lot of rumors about her, with many backing her up.
Not just Old Tang and Tang Qing, but also National Medical Sage Chen Baoshan, Director Jin of Capital Art Academy, and even Yama King, Wei, along with the Bai Family from City J.
Mother Wang had already cautioned her not to offend Chiang Xiao and to foster a good relationship with her if possible. If not, maintaining a distance would be fine.
So, Wang Lili and Qin Xiaojun believed that Chiang Xiao probably didnât view the tea refreshments as particularly extravagant.
Bringing them for sharing was a gesture of friendship, something they certainly shouldnât reject.
But under Xie Landiâs glance, their hearts skipped a beat.
Could it really be too impolite?
Chiang Xiao said calmly, "Eat, I have these every day."
Was she showing off?
Let her show off a little then.
Qin Xiaojun and Wang Lili felt slightly relieved and began eating with smiles.
"Chiang Xiao, youâre so lucky. This isnât easy to buy; now you have to pre-order it from the Chen Family Business and wait for delivery, sometimes for days. I heard Youqingwei is doing so well that if too many orders come, thereâs a queue."
Qin Xiaojun seemed to know quite well.
"I wonder when theyâll open a branch in Capital City? If thereâs no transportation cost, maybe it could be cheaper."
Hearing this question from Qin Xiaojun, Chiang Xiaoâs heart was stirred, saying, "Youqingwei will open a shop in Capital City before the year-end, and itâs the main store, not a branch. You can buy from there then."
"Really?" Qin Xiaojun and Wang Lili called out in surprise. "Where is it?"
Chiang Xiao told them the shopâs location.
This counts as promotion, right?
When Qin Xiaojun and Wang Lili talked at home, their families would spread the news, and the old customers in Capital City would know.
Qin Xiaojun and Wang Lili werenât curious about how Chiang Xiao knew this information. Given her new position and background, it didnât surprise them that she knew.
Xie Landi, seeing they truly didnât consider the price of the refreshments, quietly took a bite of the dessert in her hand.
At that bite, her eyes brightened.
She had never tasted anything so delicious in her life!
Simply incredible!
As she indulged in the sweetness of the tea flavor, Chiang Xiao asked, "Xie Landi, do you know anything about Ye Wanqing?"
Xie Landi was startled, unable to respond, and nervously cried, "I really donât know."
