The entire process in Chapter 134 is comparable to the Calabash Brothers rescuing their grandfather.

Ling Yue was a bit annoyed at having made a wasted trip.

Can't I just have a decent meal?

Unexpectedly, the waiter chased after her, "Miss Ling, please wait!"

Ling Yue stopped to wait for her. The waiter said, panting, "Our boss would like to see you."

"You Mingzhi?" Ling Yue remembered that this restaurant was opened by You Mingzhi and several friends, so there should be several bosses, but the only one she knew was You Mingzhi.

The waiter nodded.

"Lead the way." Ling Yue smiled slightly.

Finally, time to eat.

Qiyun Private Room.

The waiter pushed open the door.

Ling Yue strode in. There were only a few cold dishes on the table.

Her smile faded slightly, and she looked toward the tea table on the side.

Kan Jiashu was making tea.

You Mingzhi was typing, holding a laptop.

Xun Ji was lying on the sofa playing on his phone.

Lin Poluo was leaning against the window, watching the scenery, cosplaying as a melancholy, reticent youth.

The room was completely quiet.

It was reasonable for Kan Jiashu, You Mingzhi, and Xun Ji to be together.

Why was Lin Poluo here too?

They wouldn't start arguing again while eating, would they?

"You're here." Lin Poluo was the first to notice Ling Yue.

Ling Yue hesitated for a moment, but ultimately entered the room.

If nothing else, she could just kick them all out later.

She wouldn't let herself suffer, no matter who else did.

She was hungry and wanted to eat now!

Ling Yue walked to the dining table and sat down, "Why are you all here?"

You Mingzhi put away his computer, told the waiter following behind Ling Yue to serve the food, and then walked in front of Ling Yue, saying, "I received a call from Kan Jiashu at the club saying he wanted to book a private room.

When I asked, I found out he was booking it for his fiancée. I didn't go to the aunt's birthday banquet yesterday, but I'm well-informed. I heard that you and Yu Shuo had an appointment to go to the Huang Family private vault today, so I guessed that Yu Shuo must have booked the private room to treat you to a meal, and then I came over.

When Xun Ji heard me on the phone, he insisted on tagging along.

When Lin Poluo saw Xun Ji following me, he shamelessly tagged along too..."

The whole process was like the Calabash Brothers saving their grandfather. One after another.

After saying this, You Mingzhi waved the computer in his hand, "I've finished the plan for the Automobile Museum and was just about to show it to you."

Good heavens.

"Let's eat first, let's eat first." Ling Yue was truly hungry.

"Okay!" You Mingzhi sat down next to Ling Yue.

Cheng Jiao was taken to the Yage room by the waiter.

Zang Lanyi stayed by Ling Yue's side for close protection. Ling Yue knew her well—she had heard her stomach growling on the way—so she let her sit beside her to eat as well.

The waiter cleared away the extra seats, but there was still one empty seat next to Kan Jiashu.

No one said who it was reserved for.

Because soon, the waiter brought Yu Shuo over.

"..." Yu Shuo went silent.

There were so many people here.

This was clearly a dining atmosphere; the words she had prepared definitely couldn't be said at this moment to ruin the mood.

Xun Ji, being very tactful, greeted Yu Shuo, and Yu Shuo took the opportunity to sit down next to Kan Jiashu.

The food was served quickly.

Several of the dishes were ones Ling Yue had eaten and said she liked when she came last time.

You Mingzhi was very attentive in this regard.

Ling Yue, who finally got to eat, was also very happy.

Xun Ji and Lin Poluo ate honestly the whole time without a single argument; the atmosphere was inexplicably harmonious.

After the meal, everyone drank tea and chatted about recent events.

Ling Yue looked at You Mingzhi's proposal and thought it was pretty good, so she told him to show it to Qian Xu as well. If there were no problems with the plan, they could try to implement it.

As soon as You Mingzhi had a spare moment, he was flanked by Xun Ji and Lin Poluo on his left and right.

Both of them wanted to know which car model You Mingzhi would buy first.

You Mingzhi was annoyed to death and wished he could slap each of them.

Ling Yue was leisurely drinking tea.

Yu Shuo returned from the restroom and naturally sat down opposite her, "I apologize for what happened earlier."

Ling Yue shook her head, "Let's not talk about it. Worrying about things that have already passed is just a waste of time."

Yu Shuo pursed her lips.

She had thought about it carefully just now.

Ling Yue was rich and liked buying jade; she had many choices, and she herself just happened to enter the other party's line of sight.

The matter of spending a fortune on jade was only known to people inside the company, but who could guarantee that someone wouldn't have a loose tongue? For example, someone like Huang Jingluo might inadvertently leak the news, and by then, Ling Yue would inevitably become a major client fought over by competing companies.

Originally, Yu Shuo didn't need to consider this problem; as far as the current situation went, her cooperation with Ling Yue was quite pleasant.

But a variable had appeared just now: Ling Yue seemed to dislike Huang Yingxiong very much and also hated last-minute changes.

The choice was in Ling Yue's hands; it was highly possible she would hate a brand just because she hated a certain person.

Yu Shuo didn't want her previous efforts to go down the drain, so she had to use a good impression to cover up the bad one.

So she thought of the auction at the Pingxi Public Auction in five days.

Since Ling Yue was interested in jade, she would act as the bridge.

"There is a large auction at the Pingxi Public Auction in ten days. It's said that a two-ton raw stone will be participating in the sealed bid this time. It just so happens that our company is a regular client of the Pingxi Public Auction and can recommend one person to attend.

I see you are interested in jade; would you like to go and have some fun?"

To increase her persuasiveness, Yu Shuo added, "The yellow jade you acquired this time was cut from a raw stone we bought at the Pingxi Public Auction previously."

Here it comes, here it comes!

The opportunity to spend money has finally arrived!

Ling Yue didn't show it on her face, "Pingxi Public Auction, where is it?"

"Guang Province."

Ling Yue was silent for a moment, putting on an unfathomable air, "That's fine. I didn't buy enough this time. Remember to contact me before you set off, and we will go together."

"That's great! I will contact the people at the Pingxi Public Auction in a while, and the people at the auction will send you an invitation.

It just so happens that our company has very mature raw stone appraisers. If Miss Ling has any use for them, feel free to use them."

The olive branch was thrown out, and the other party accepted it.

This meant that they could continue to cooperate.

Although Ling Yue might not come to the Huang Family to buy raw stones again in the short term, at least the major client was retained.

In everything, there is a trade-off.

*

Sending off Ling Yue.

Yu Shuo let out a long sigh.

In her peripheral vision, Kan Jiashu walked up at some point and stood shoulder to shoulder with her.

Yu Shuo looked at him, "Thank you... and thank your family for the favor they did for me."

"You're welcome." Kan Jiashu's answer was concise.

Yu Shuo, "... I have a question."

"What?"

If she didn't ask today, it would keep playing on her mind.

So Yu Shuo asked, "Why didn't you tell me Ling Yue's true strength at the beginning?"

Kan Jiashu leaned against the car body, "If I had told you at the beginning, you probably wouldn't have been able to resist making friends with Ling Yue immediately, right?"

Yu Shuo thought about it.

That point in time happened to be when Huang Yingxiong's new wife was giving birth to their second child.

She hadn't planned many things well and had rushed back to the country to seize power, which led to Huang Yingxiong calling her impulsive, causing her to fail to gain real power when she first entered the company.

If she had known about Ling Yue's strength in advance, she would definitely have made friends with her first, just as Kan Jiashu said.

"You actually understand me." Yu Shuo laughed despite herself.

Being seen through by someone is very dangerous.

Kan Jiashu sighed softly; she was always full of defenses against him.

"I have spent some time with Ling Yue. She is a person with very strong opinions who only follows her heart when doing things.

Whether it was my nursing home project or the club, she stayed away from management, which shows that she herself hates trouble very much.

If you were eager to make friends and disturbed her, it would only be counterproductive."

Yu Shuo took up the conversation, "So it required the push of the birthday banquet."

Kan Jiashu didn't answer, which counted as tacit agreement.

"I'm very curious, what value of mine did you see?" Currently, it seemed like the Kan Family was helping her more; she owed them a favor before even marrying in.

Kan Jiashu shrugged, "To invest in a person, one must always pay the price first.

You and Ling Yue get along quite well; we are joining forces to solidify this connection."

"Alright, I owe your family a favor this time." Yu Shuo said this to let Kan Jiashu know that she would not forget what he had done for her.

Kan Jiashu opened his mouth helplessly, then stopped himself from speaking.

Forget it.

There were some things she wouldn't believe even if he said them.

"Our wedding date has been set." Kan Jiashu changed the subject.

Yu Shuo remained calm, "Next spring, I still have a few months."

The two of them had different thoughts.

It was like:

Kan Jiashu was talking about love.

Yu Shuo was thinking about what to wear tomorrow.

Kan Jiashu thought to himself that the road to winning his wife's heart seemed a bit endless...
