Chapter 64: The Hunger Games (2)
Shen Jingbin wanted to say something, but was interrupted by someone suddenly pus.h.i.+ng open the door to their private room. The one who entered wasn't Shen Jingchen and Xuya, but rather, it was a very beautiful and fas.h.i.+onable woman.
The woman held a tray in her hands, and on it was an exquisitely plated dish. She twisted her slender waist and placed the dish on the table. Then, she pretended to glance at Shen Jingbin by accident. After that, she laughed in a flirtatious manner and said, "Oh, Second Young Master. It's been such a long time since you've come to my Blooming Flower Pavilion. Are you hinting that my restaurant’s dishes are lacking in taste?"
Zhao Chengning removed his hands from the table and straightened his back. He replied in a vapid manner, "You must be joking, Boss Chen. Having a meal at your Blooming Flower Pavilion is no easy task."
The woman cast a coquettish glance in his direction and said, "Who is the Second Young Master?! I'd pull out another table for you even if all ten of our tables were full."
Zhao Chengning didn't respond. Rather, he held the boccaro teacup in front of him between his hands and took a sip. Shen Jingbin wasn't too clear about their relations.h.i.+p, so she silently stared at her own teacup in front of her.
In that time, an awkward silence pervaded the atmosphere.
The woman's expression turned rather ugly. She shuffled uneasily on the spot before drawing attention to Shen Jingbin. "Who's this beauty? Why haven't I seen her before? Nice to meet you, gorgeous. I'm Chenyi, the proprietor of Blooming Flower Pavilion."
"Nice to meet you, Boss Chen," Shen Jingbin calmly replied.
Shen Jingbin didn't introduce herself, merely replying with a simple greeting. This caused the look on Chenyi's face to turn even uglier than before.
"Second Young Master Chen has a very discerning eye. This is the first time I've seen such a beautiful person… Let me go and check on the remaining dishes. I wish the two of you an enjoyable meal."
