"Master Qin, I just want to treat you to a meal, nothing else." Liu Shun Tian saw Qin Yu hesitate and added another word.

"What about you guys?" Qin Yu turned to ask the others, but found that no one was speaking, all waiting for him to make the decision. After pondering for a moment, Qin Yu finally nodded in agreement. After all, it was a good thing that someone was willing to treat them to a meal. At least Mo Yong Xing's idea of taking advantage of him would be in vain.

Everyone except Qin Yu had a car. Just as Qin Yu was about to get into his cousin's car, Mo Yong Xing called out:

"Qin Yu, come to my car."

Qin Yu glanced at Mo Yong Xing, who was sitting in the driver's seat and waving at him. Qin Yu had no choice but to close the car door and walk to Mo Yong Xing's car, opening the rear door. He found Mo Yong Xin sitting in the back seat.

"I'll sit in the front." Qin Yu closed the rear door and opened the passenger door, just about to sit down when Mo Yong Xin's voice came from behind:

"Why does Mr. Qin hate me so much?" There was a hint of anger in Mo Yong Xin's words, but neither Qin Yu nor Mo Yong Xing noticed.

"No, I don't." Qin Yu touched his nose and had to close the door again, opening the rear door and glancing at Mo Yong Xin before getting in. He thought to himself, "Bro, it's not that I hate you, it's just that I'm afraid of you. Every time I see you, I think of the beautiful scenes in the cave and get too excited."

Mo Yong Xin called Qin Yu to the back seat but didn't say anything. Instead, she closed her eyes and leaned against the leather sofa, ignoring Qin Yu.

"What's this? You call me to the back and then close your eyes to rest." Qin Yu rolled his eyes, not understanding what Mo Yong Xin was up to.

Actually, if Qin Yu had carefully observed Mo Yong Xin's eyes, he would have noticed that her eyelashes were trembling slightly, not as calm as she appeared.

Mo Yong Xin closed her eyes and ignored Qin Yu because she was embarrassed to face him. The moment those words slipped out, even she was surprised by the angry and shy tone in her voice, as if she were pouting at her boyfriend.

Mo Yong Xin pretended to rest, and Qin Yu naturally wouldn't take the initiative to speak. He also leaned against the sofa and closed his eyes to rest.

"What are these two up to?" Mo Yong Xing, driving in front, muttered to himself. He had called Qin Yu over at his sister's request, as she seemed to have something to say to Qin Yu. But now that Qin Yu was here, why wasn't his sister saying anything?

Liu Shun Tian's car led the way, followed by Mo Yong Xing's car, and then Zhang Weijun's car. Qin Yu's cousin Zhang Hua's car didn't follow; Qin Yu had asked him to pick up Tong Min and join them for dinner later.

Since his cousin had taken a liking to Miss Tong, and Miss Tong also seemed to have a good impression of his cousin, it was best to strike while the iron was hot. The more they got together for meals, the faster their relationship would develop.

Liu Shun Tian's car stopped in front of a restaurant, and Mo Yong Xing naturally followed suit. Qin Yu looked through the car window at the restaurant, which had a classical facade and several slim girls in qipaos serving as greeters at the entrance.

The three cars parked, and Liu Shun Tian came to Qin Yu and said, "Master Qin, this Yue Lai Ju is one of the most famous Cantonese restaurants in GZ. We'll have dinner here tonight. What do you think?"

"Everything is up to Mr. Liu's arrangement." Qin Yu replied. Among their group, only Li Weijun was familiar with GZ, and they had no particular preference for where to eat.

"Alright, we'll eat here. I've already reserved a table. Yue Lai Ju is quite popular, and usually, reservations are made a day or two in advance."

Liu Shun Tian led the way, but in fact, Yue Lai Ju was even more popular than he said. At this time, there would be no available tables, but Liu Shun Tian knew the owner and had asked him to reserve a table for him.

To treat Qin Yu to a meal, Liu Shun Tian naturally wanted to choose a place that was both high-end and delicious to show his sincerity. He also noticed that Master Qin's friends were all influential people. The price of these cars was no less than his own, and these people were all young, except for one. But even that older person seemed to be a successful person, and Liu Shun Tian could even sense that his business might be even bigger.

Liu Shun Tian had started from scratch and built his business, and his keen eye for people had played a significant role. He was confident that he wouldn't be wrong about this group of people, who were definitely influential.

Therefore, Liu Shun Tian kept a low profile, especially since he had something to ask of them. When you need something from someone, you have to be polite.

"Mr. Liu, the boss has already called and reserved the Four Seasons private room for you."

Liu Shun Tian had just reached the entrance when a man in a suit, with slicked-back hair, who looked like a manager, came up and shook his hand.

"Alright, take us there."

Liu Shun Tian nodded lightly, shook hands with the man, and then withdrew his hand. His low profile was for Qin Yu, not for everyone. The man in front of him didn't deserve him to lower his boss's dignity.

"Welcome."

Qin Yu was startled by the整齐 (neat) voices of the greeters as he followed Liu Shun Tian into the restaurant. These girls were all young and beautiful, especially the high slits in their qipaos, which revealed their white thighs, almost blinding Qin Yu.

"Pathetic, you're already dazzled by this. If you have time, I'll take you to the Paradise of Freedom, where there are hundreds of beautiful girls in revealing outfits. That's really exciting." Mo Yong Xing, seeing Qin Yu pause, leaned in and whispered in his ear.

"Cough, cough..." Qin Yu was choked by Mo Yong Xing's words, turned to glare at him, and quickly walked forward.

"Ha ha, Brother Fang, doesn't Qin Yu's expression look like a rookie? It's really hilarious." Mo Yong Xing patted Meng Fang's shoulder and laughed.

"He better be a rookie." Meng Fang glared at Mo Yong Xing. If Qin Yu wasn't a rookie, it would mean that his sister had already been taken by Qin Yu.

"Brother Fang, what do you mean?" Mo Yong Xing was puzzled.

"Nothing, let's go." Meng Fang shook his head. Mo Yong Xing was the person the Mo family had chosen to marry into the Meng family, and he was supposed to be his future brother-in-law. Qin Yu, however, was the boyfriend his sister had chosen herself, and they got along well. This was a complicated situation, and even Meng Fang, who was usually calm, couldn't help but curse in his heart.

"Master Qin, and everyone else, please take your seats."

Everyone followed into the private room, which was decorated in a classical style, with furniture and chairs in the Ming and Qing styles, and several ink landscape paintings on the walls. It made Qin Yu feel as if he had traveled back in time.

"Master Qin, could you introduce these friends to me?" Liu Shun Tian asked after everyone was seated.

"Um..." Qin Yu looked at the others, unsure how to introduce them to Liu Shun Tian. Meng Fang was from an official family, and given Mo Yong Xing's familiarity with Meng Fang, he was likely also from an official family. If they didn't want to reveal their identities to Liu Shun Tian, Qin Yu wouldn't want to overstep and cause any discomfort.

"Ha ha, Mr. Liu, here's my business card. Let's get to know each other better. You can call these three Mr. Meng, Mr. Mo, and Miss Mo." Li Weijun, seeing Qin Yu's awkwardness, and knowing that the identities of the three were not something to be casually revealed, took out a business card and handed it to Liu Shun Tian, easing the situation.

"Oh!"

Liu Shun Tian's face showed a hint of confusion when he heard Li Weijun's words. Could it be that his status wasn't enough to know the backgrounds of these three young people? He felt a bit unhappy and took the business card from Li Weijun, glancing at it.

Just one glance, and Liu Shun Tian's mouth opened wide. Li Weijun's business card was simple, with only one line: Chairman of Qiangsheng Group, Li Weijun.

But just that one line made Liu Shun Tian's heart race. He wasn't unfamiliar with Qiangsheng Group, or rather, anyone in the GZ business circle would know about Qiangsheng Group, which was involved in countless industries in GZ and was one of the top groups in the city.

Liu Shun Tian's own company was good, but compared to Qiangsheng Group, it was like the difference between a child and an adult, not in the same league at all.

Knowing that the person in front of him was the chairman of Qiangsheng Group, Liu Shun Tian lowered his attitude even further, and the bit of unhappiness in his heart disappeared. He was a shrewd person, and since even the chairman of Qiangsheng Group addressed these young people in such a way, it could only mean that their backgrounds were even more impressive than he could imagine.

"Mr. Liu, shall we follow the usual procedure for the dishes?" After everyone was seated, the manager-like man came in again, holding a teapot. Normally, these tasks were done by the waiters, but he knew Liu Shun Tian's status and that he was a wealthy person with a good relationship with his boss, so he naturally wanted to serve him more diligently.

"Sure, just bring us your signature dishes." Liu Shun Tian replied calmly. Knowing Li Weijun's identity, he wouldn't want to show off in front of these people. As long as the dishes were good and everyone was satisfied, that would be enough.
