Zhao Chi stared at him suspiciously: "You added Ruan Li's secretary as a friend? When did that happen? How come I didn't know about it?"
Tang Yifan kept smiling. "What a coincidence! Qin Mi is my high school classmate, but we haven't been in touch for a long time. It was only a few months ago when I contacted Ruan's that I found out that she now works for Mr. Ruan."
"That Qin Mi woman is difficult to deal with. She actually has this kind of relationship with you. Okay, you order me a meal and we'll go to that restaurant."
Tang Yifan ordered the meal, completed the task, and breathed a sigh of relief.
At noon, Ruan Li and Qin Mi went downstairs to the underground parking lot together. Tang Yifan and Zhao Chi also set off at the same time, hoping to have a chance encounter.
Zhao Chi and Tang Yifan walked into the restaurant. The hall was dominated by dark brown wood color, with a dome and wall lamps outlined with gilded lines. Each dining table was separated by a wooden frame and half-person-high potted green plants, forming an independent and transparent small space.
The floor was covered with a soft, dark-patterned carpet, and one could hardly hear any sound when stepping on it. Only the soothing melody played by the pianist could be heard in the distance.
Tang Yifan hadn't seen Qin Mi for more than ten years. Fortunately, Qin Mi loved to post updates, so he knew what Qin Mi looked like now.
Soon he spotted Qin Mi in the corner. She had her back to them, sitting in a booth half-hidden by greenery, her long curly chestnut hair loose.
"Boss, over there." Tang Yifan lowered his voice and signaled with his eyes.
Zhao Chi followed his gaze and saw only a blurry figure and a space across from him completely blocked by greenery. He knew in his heart that Ruan Li must be sitting there.
"Let's go and sit down nearby." Zhao Chi said calmly.
They chose a seat where they could vaguely see Qin Mi's booth.
Zhao Chi ordered the food, but he had no taste for it and his eyes kept drifting towards that corner.
Halfway through lunch time, Zhao Chi felt that the time was almost right, so he stood up, straightened his suit, and pretended to walk towards Qin Mi's booth casually.
Tang Yifan followed closely behind. He was quite curious about what kind of person Xiao Ruan was.
Zhao Chi walked over to the booth, cleared his throat, and prepared to say hello. However, when he saw the scene inside the booth, he was completely stunned.
Qin Mi was the only one in the booth. She was slowly cutting a steak. Exquisite tableware and a bottle of red wine were placed in front of her. A video was playing on her phone. The seat opposite her was empty.
"Where is Ruan Li?" Zhao Chi blurted out, his tone full of surprise and confusion.
Qin Mi was watching TV with a smile on her face. When she heard the voice, she looked up and saw Zhao Chi and Tang Yifan. A trace of surprise appeared on her face, but then she regained her composure.
She turned off the video, put down her knife and fork, wiped the corners of her mouth gracefully, and said:
"Boss Zhao? Assistant Tang? What a coincidence, you're here too. But Boss Ruan isn't here."
Zhao Chi's face darkened instantly. He stared at Qin Mi coldly, as if trying to judge the truth in her words.
"Really? Then where is Ruan Li?"
Qin Mi met his gaze with neither arrogance nor servility, "Boss Zhao, our Boss Ruan's schedule is naturally confidential. You can ask her in person."
"Tell Ruan Li that I want to see her." "Okay, Mr. Zhao, I'll help you convey it."
Zhao Chi turned and left.
Tang Yifan looked at Zhao Chi's departing back, then looked at his old classmate in front of him, and couldn't help but feel like crying.
"Qin Mi, your circle of friends misled me..."
Qin Mi raised her eyebrows, a sly smile playing on her lips. "What's wrong? Assistant Tang, are you surprised to see me here alone? How did I mislead you?"
