Chapter 489: Chapter 342: Mysterious Boyfriend Exposed_2

Da Ha sent her a WeChat message: “Really, Boss? You’re also going to eat hairy crabs? From the background in your picture, wouldn’t you be dining at the same place as me?”

Gu Li laughed when she saw the message, “I’m at the garden-styled restaurant on Lakeview Road, where are you?”

Da Ha replied immediately: “Same here. Boss, are you here with your brother-in-law? I’m with Sister Yining and Sister Qian, we just got to our private room.”

Seeing this, Gu Li quickly sent a voice message: “I’m in room V18, the room is quite big, why don’t all of you join us? Besides Brother Ting and me, there’s also President Tang from the Tang Group.”

“Alright.”

After Da Ha finished his message, he turned to the two ladies who were engaged in a lively conversation. “Sisters, my boss is in room V18 and has invited us over.”

Murong Qian was unhappy to be interrupted from her conversation with Ye Yining, and glared at Da Ha, “If you want to go, go by yourself.”

She had so much to talk about with Yining, she certainly didn’t want to be the third wheel.

“If you guys won’t go, then how can I?”

Da Ha spoke in a pitiful tone before picking up his phone, “I’ll reply to my boss and tell her we won’t be joining then.”

As he was about to send the message, he began to murmur aloud just loud enough for Murong Qian to hear, “President Tang from the Tang Group of M Country is there too. I was hoping to discuss the possibility of strategic cooperation with him. The Tang Group controls more than half of the entertainment resources in M Country. If we could establish a connection with the Tang Group this time, it would definitely be a great opportunity for Shi Li Entertainment. Such a pity…”

While Da Ha lamented aloud, he cast glances towards Murong Qian from time to time.

Just as he expected, Murong Qian changed her mind, “President Tang from the Tang Group is also there?”

“Yeah, that’s what the boss said.”

“Alright, then let’s go!”

Murong Qian slapped the table and stood up without hesitation.

Ye Yining also stood up and couldn’t help but wonder- why did she keep bumping into men with the last name Tang lately?

It seemed like every other day she encountered one.

However, when she stepped into room V18 with Da Ha and Murong Qian and saw Tang Yue, who was seated at the table engrossed in a business conversation with Mo Shiting, she finally understood.

It’s a small world.

Tang Yue is the President of the Tang Group. In other words, Aunt Tang, is the legendary Chairman of the Tang Group?

She was surprised to find that despite being the chairman of a well-known consortium in M Country, Tang Wan had no airs about her at all. She was enthusiastic, lively, and approachable, nothing like the stereotype of a powerful businesswoman.

Then again, it made sense. Just like her friend Gu Li, who was incredibly capable but also lively and endearing, she was like a ray of sunshine.

“There you guys are. Please, have a seat, our food will be served very soon.”

Gu Li cheerfully greeted them.

Ye Yining snapped back to reality and took the initiative to say, “Sorry for intruding with our party of three.”

Gu Li replied, “Sister Yining, don’t be so polite. Please, everyone, sit down.”

The moment Tang Yue heard the name “Yining”, he instinctively turned his head and indeed, he saw a familiar face.

“It’s you?”

Surprised at the fact that she knew Gu Li, he was as astonished as Ye Yining was when she saw that he was also present.

“Hello Mr. Tang. I’m Little Pear’s best friend.”

Ye Yining explained with a smile.

She wasn’t surprised that Tang Yue knew Little Pear, after all, it was only normal for the Tang Group and Xinghe, two large conglomerates, to have business dealings.

After taking a quick glance at the two, Gu Li’s eyes started to sparkle with interest, “Oh, I remember now. Some time ago, Sister Yining bumped into your car Brother Tang, and that’s how you two met, right?”

“Mmm, that’s right.”

Tang Yue subtly nodded, with a smile hovering around his lips, “Miss Ye helped me a lot. I was always looking for a chance to thank her over a meal, and never expected to meet her here today.”

“Really? What kind of help did she offer?”

Gu Li squinted her eyes, her interest even more piqued.

Just as Tang Yue was about to say that she helped Tang Wan, he was abruptly cut off by Ye Yining, “It was just a small favor, Mr. Tang, you don’t need to worry about it.”

During their meal with the Tang siblings, Tang Yue’s phone had suddenly died. She happened to have a power bank with her, so she had lent it to him for a short while.

Such a trivial matter did not bear mentioning at all, let alone warrant a meal.

Seeing her seemingly avoiding him as if he was a leper, a hint of confusion flashed across Tang Yue’s eyes.

Did he look ugly? Or unapproachable? Or…

Did she dislike him that much?

…….

After lunch, Gu Li had to rush back to school and so she and Mo Shiting left first.
