Since things had already reached this point, they could only face the crisis head-on in order to resolve it.
Li Shengxia seemed to be thinking the same thing as Tan Qing.
“Since he’s your friend and came all the way here, we naturally have to be the host. “she said.
Tan Qing smiled at MO Nianchen when she heard that.””Crown Prince, please…”
MO Nianchen stared at Li Shengxia as if he was trying to find some clues in her eyes. However, he could not find anything. He lost control of his emotions and was disappointed. When he saw Tan Qing hugging her shoulders, he felt a mix of emotions.
What had happened to her all these years!?She was already…Did she not reject other men anymore?
Previously, she had told him that she could not get close to any of the opposite sex without him..
Was it different now?
Chi Su followed closely behind MO Nianchen with a myriad of thoughts running through his mind. The woman in front of him looked exactly like the crown prince consort, but her words revealed that she was unfamiliar with the crown prince…
The largest hotel in L City was an international hotel called Blooming. The hotel had a strong artistic atmosphere, and it was more like walking into an art gallery.
Famous paintings hung on the walls around the VIP room, and the tea on the table had a strong fragrance.
Tan Qing sat beside Li Shengxia and poured her a cup of tea. Li Shengxia smiled at her to express her gratitude.
MO Nianchen sat across from them, his eyes shining with a profound light.
Tan Qing seemed to have noticed his displeasure and said to the waiter,”Open a bottle of 1982 Lafite.”
“Yes, sir.”
MO Nianchen met Tan Qing’s cold gaze. Once upon a time, he had always been beside her. Thinking of this, he felt even more unbearable.” Since the great designer Tan is treating us today, how can one bottle of wine be enough?” Take ten bottles.’
“Li Shengxia looked at MO Nianchen as if he was a lunatic.
He was crazy! Even though she did not drink at all, she knew how expensive a bottle of 1982 Lafite was! He actually casually ordered ten bottles! Did he think it was beer? He couldn’t even finish half a bottle by himself!
Was his brain the surface of the moon? You can’t be so good at scamming people! It would be better if she really had something going on with Tan Qing! How was she going to pay him back?
MO Nianchen took the look in Li Shengxia’s eyes as a sign that she was protecting Tan Qing. He furrowed his brows in displeasure.” What? Was the great designer Tan treating her to a meal so insincerely?”
Tan Qing didn’t seem to be angry. She smiled at the waiter and said,” As you wish, sir. Also, serve the most expensive and best dishes here. This gentleman has come from afar and hasn’t tasted our specialties yet.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Wait.” The corners of MO Nianchen’s lips curled into a cold smile.” I didn’t come all the way here just for a meal.” However, since they’ve already eaten, shouldn’t I order?”
“Crown Prince, please…” Tan Qing handed the menu to MO Nianchen.
Looking at the menu, MO Nianchen frowned and said,””Give me a pen and paper. I’ll write it myself.”
As he spoke, he took a pen and paper and wrote a few dishes on the paper.
The waiter had never seen such a crafty customer. How was he here to eat? He was simply here to find trouble. What were these things? He had never heard of them before.
“Sir…We don’t have these dishes here.” “This is not something I need to care about.”
The waiter looked troubled.
Tan Qing said to the waiter, “Just find a chef to cook according to the menu. I’ll be responsible for all the expenses. ‘”‘
“Yes, sir.” The waiter took the menu and left.
MO Nianchen took a sip of his tea nonchalantly and frowned.” It tastes terrible.””
Tan Qing smiled faintly.” The Crown Prince came all the way here just to enjoy the scenery?”
“I’m not as free as you!” MO Nianchen put down his teacup stiffly and stared at Li Shengxia, who was beside Tan Qing.” I’m here to look for someone!””
Li Shengxia’s body trembled, and her hand that was removing the cutlery trembled subconsciously. She bumped into the teacup beside her. Fortunately, Tan Qing reacted quickly and took it from her and put it away as if nothing had happened.
“Oh?” Tan Qing smiled. Prince’s connections are really all over the world. I didn’t expect that there would be people you know in a small place like ours.”
“I didn’t expect it either.” MO Nianchen rubbed the pinky finger of his right hand with his left hand as he spoke.
He would never forget how chaotic it was when he learned of Li Shengxia’s death five years ago. Back then, he had investigated Tan Qing, and he had even traced it back to him. He did not expect Tan Qing to be the ignorant and incompetent Tan Tianyou mentioned in Chi Su’s investigation report.
No matter how smart MO Nianchen was, he did not expect that he would miss out on Li Shengxia for five whole years because of him!
Now, his woman actually said that she didn’t know him. His woman actually sat next to another man, and he could only sit opposite them!
Tan Qing smiled and did not answer.
Ten bottles of 1982 Lafite were served.
The waiter opened a bottle and Tan Qing said, “Just pour wine for this gentleman. My fiancée and I don’t like to drink.”
MO Nianchen’s expression changed slightly, especially when Tan Qing mentioned the word ‘fiancée.’
“Great designer Tan, why didn’t you introduce me to this female companion who said she didn’t know me?”
“I was careless. Her name is Xia Shengli. Victory, this is the crown prince of the Emperor Inheritance Group.”
“MO Nianchen.” ” Miss Xia, you look exactly like my wife.” MO Nianchen introduced himself.”
“Is that so?” ” What a coincidence,” Li Shengxia replied calmly.”
“It is indeed a coincidence. Even the name is the same when read backwards.” Li Shengxia’s body stiffened.
Tan Qing smiled and said,” Crown Prince, there are similarities between people. There are many people who look similar in this world. For example, the female companions of the Crown Prince in the past all have similar looks between their eyebrows. What do you think?””
“Great designer Tan, I didn’t expect that your taste would be so similar to mine in this aspect.”
MO Nianchen’s words were clearly a provocation.
Tan Qing was still unmoved.” To be honest, I did have a crush on a colleague in the past. Later, when I found out that she was married, I still confessed to her. However, she rejected me without hesitation, so I gave up on this idea and resigned from the Emperor’s Legacy. I returned to Country R. To be able to meet my current fiancée in Country R, I have to say that this is a kind of fate. I am very grateful to the heavens for allowing me to meet her in this life.”
“Great designer Tan, can you explain why you are using the name of a deceased person when you are working in the Emperor Inheritance?”
