Chapter 10

There was nothing to be picky about the meals at the Hyatt Hotel, even Zhu Yanshu had never had such a sumptuous birthday banquet, which made her look at Ma Tianbao with a much more kindly look in her eyes.

It would have been better if he hadn’t borrowed money for this meal.

Yang Yuyan small stomach is also small, eat almost do not eat, only with Jin Juli talk, rare Jin Juli also do not mind her young refused to pay attention to her, the two people on the contrary, as if they have known for a long time friends, the more they talk more and more, even Wang Wanchuan have borrowed to send a cake over a trip to see what they are talking about.

Waiting for him to go back, Sun Zhao quickly asked: “What are they talking about so lively?”

Wang Wanchuan smiled and said, “This second young lady is really a rare and wonderful person. She didn’t go to school and hired a home teacher at home, and was talking to Julie about what a hateful person her home teacher was, and also said that she usually read novels behind her home teacher’s back, and that the two of them had quite a common language.”

Sun Zhao: “No wonder, Julie used to hire a home tutor in England too, and was not quite used to going to school after she came back. However, I remember that Ms. An also hired a home tutor, how come she and Julie can’t talk together?”

Wang Wanchuan: “Ms. An’s tutor taught her ‘Women’s Rules’ and ‘Women’s Four Books’, and her mouth was full of winter stench that made people want to vomit. Miss Yang’s tutor teaches her English and Japanese, and she is quite talented. With such a teacher, she can only chat with Julie.”

Yang Yuyan is talking to Jin Julie about her newly purchased novel in which the ball is accompanied by a piano and erhu to play Peking Opera. Although the author made it up out of her imagination, it makes people wonder what kind of music can be played by the piano and the erhu together.

Jin Juli knows the piano, but Yang Yuyan doesn’t know the erhu. Both of them want to test it out, but they can’t get the props together.

Yang Yuyan: “I’ll go back and ask Mr. Su, maybe he can.”

Jin Juli curiously said, “Listening to you, he seems to know everything.”

Yang Yuyan didn’t know how she was so confident in Su Chunjun and said, “I think he should be able to play everything.” But shouldn’t be good at anything. Although he was poor and ate the cheapest noodles every day, there was always an air of a playboy about Mo Ming.

Jinjuri: “That would be a wonderful person.” Said she looked at her watch.

Yang Yuyan saw that she had looked at her watch three or four times in this moment and asked her, “Are you in a hurry?”

Jin Juli looked like she was stabbed and quickly looked up, “No! There’s no matter, I’m just worried about getting home too late to be told off.”

Yang Yuyan didn’t have a watch, but she had only just eaten, no matter what, it wouldn’t be more than eight o’clock, was this time considered late? Maybe Jin’s house was too far away? Or did Jin Julie’s parents control her very strictly?

I heard her say that she was Master Kim’s only child. Although Master Jin has a lot of wives and concubines, he only has one daughter and holds her in his hands like a treasure.

Yang Yuyan turned her head to look at Zhu Yanshu’s side.

That side of the family was also in good spirits. Zhu Yanshu had been latching on to Ma Tianbao’s ancestors and had already lured them out.

Jin Juli turned her head to Sun Zhao’s side, “Second brother, I’m a bit cold.”

Sun Zhao immediately complained, “Let you wear a coat when you go out, but refused, this is late fall, the wind at night is still very cold, freezing to see how you do!” Complaining, he still stood up and said to Wang Wanchuan, “I’ll go back and get a coat for Julie.”

Wang Wanchuan looked at his watch and said, “You don’t have to come back, just let Uncle Ma bring the jacket back. We’ll just wait here.”

Sun Zhao made a point of saying goodbye to Zhu Yanshu before leaving, being courteous. He also turned around and purposely spoke to Yang Yuyan, “Second Miss and Julie are good, come out to play more often in the future. I usually have to take Julie to the movies and parks, but she thinks it’s boring to have no friends, so you guys are just right for company.”

Yang Yuyan looked at Zhu Yanshu and got her to nod before saying, “If it’s not too much trouble.”

Sun Zhao smiled and said, “I’m honored to have the pleasure of your company, so it won’t be troublesome.” Raising his leg to leave, he suddenly saw a string of beads dropped by the chair, he ambled over to pick it up, at a glance he knew it wasn’t Julie’s, and tentatively handed it to Yang Yuyan: “The second miss dropped something.”

Yang Yuyan’s face changed greatly, grabbed it and stuffed it into his pocket, carefully glanced at Zhu Yanshu, seeing that she didn’t notice it she was relieved.

Both Jin Juli and Sun Zhao felt amused. Both of them have had the experience of stealing and wearing the things of the adults in the family, Jin Juli stole and wore Mrs. Jin’s diamond necklace, Sun Zhao stole and wore Mr. Sun’s watch, and that string of beads is not Yang Yuyan’s own at a glance, and I think it must be the collection of Ms. Zhu.

Sun Zhao is aware of Zhu Yanshu is Zhu descendants, although only one of them, but the Zhu family’s most prosperous three or four streets are surnamed Zhu, I heard that Ms. Zhu now still have a building to collect rent, visible or some family background.

He and Wang Wanchuan heard before Miss Yang’s mother surnamed Zhu, Zhu descendants, guessed Ma Tianbao this love will not be too smooth. Today it seems that Miss Yang is single-mindedly tied to Ma Tianbao, but Ms. Zhu will not have a good time. Although it is an orphaned mother and weak girl, but also not Ma Tianbao this college tuition fees are dependent on the Jin family subsidies can climb up. Miss Yang in the school is not obvious, Miss Yang can even hire a few years of home teacher, casually take out a string is expensive jewelry, this shows that Ms. Zhu is not as poor as it seems.

If she was really poor, maybe instead she wouldn’t be too picky about Ma Tianbao’s family.

Sun Zhao is far better than Ma Tianbao, who is still in school, to know how these wives pick their son-in-laws, and he knows just by looking at Zhu Yanshu’s attitude that the son-in-law candidate she has in mind is definitely not enough for Ma Tianbao!

Or a scholarly family, or an ordinary official’s son, or a family with one or two industrial shade of the real family, social status and family conditions, can not do without one.

Either way, it’s far better to satisfy Ms. Zhu than Ma Tianbao, whose parents are in the lower class!

However, Sun Zhao got into the car but said to the driver in front, “Uncle Ma, Miss Yang is really a good girl! Her mother, Ms. Zhu, is also very elegant, and Miss Yang is even more compatible with Julie! Uncle Ma looks like he will enjoy his children and grandchildren in the future!”

The white-haired Ma Gui said politely, “Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. I’m afraid that Tian Bao is not good enough for the other family’s young lady.”

Sun Zhao laughed: “Tianbao’s grades are first year after year, and every professor praises him! In the past, such a talent would have been called the star of literature, and would have been worthy of any young lady, so don’t worry about it, Uncle Ma.”

The crowd in the hotel was still waiting. The food and wine have been removed, Wang Wanchuan proposed to go to the cafe to sit for a while.

Zhu Yanshu had the intention to say goodbye, but Jin Juli kept pulling Yang Yuyan to talk, so Wang Wanchuan said, “The time is also late, let Ms. Zhu and the two young ladies go back from the yellow car is really hard for me to feel at ease, it is better to let us use the car to send it off. When the car comes back let the car send the three of you back.”

The one who drove the car was naturally Ma Tianbao’s father.

Zhu Yanshu no longer insisted when she thought of this. She wanted to break up these two people, she always needed to know a little bit about each other before she could do so.

To the cafe, the lights are dim, there is a piano playing a slow song, a few people sat down, Yang Yuyan and Jin Juli remembered the “piano with erhu”, and laughed at the same time.

Zhu Yanshu might want to Yang Yuyan so quickly made friends with Ms. Jin, happy to see it, to her now more important is of course the other daughter. This time when she sat down she grabbed Yang Yucan and pulled her to sit beside her, forcing Ma Tianbao to sit on the other side of the single chair.

Yang Yuyan and Julie Jin sat on a double sofa. Wang Wanchuan was not willing to accompany Ma Tianbao to be rowdy by his future mother in law, so he also sat down against Jin Juli and asked the two girls with a smile, “What do you want to drink? There is tea, milk, coffee and juice here.”

Jin Juli glanced at Yang Yuyan, thinking that she had never been here, I’m afraid she wouldn’t dare to take the initiative to order, so she ordered first: “I want a cup of coffee.”

Wang Wanchuan wanted to disagree, but felt that he might waste Julie’s good intentions by saying no, so he had to say, “You won’t be able to sleep again at night after drinking coffee.” He called the Indian waiter to order, and then asked Yang Yuyan with a smile, “What would you like to drink, second miss?”

Yang Yuyan said, “Don’t call me second miss, it sounds scary.”

Jin Juli said, “I have called Yanyan, big brother you also follow me to call it.”

Wang Wanchuan laughed, “In that case, I will also call you Yan Yan, you are my sister just like Julie. Don’t be polite with what you want to eat or drink.”

Yang Yuyan really saw a drink she wanted to drink on the menu board on the coffee table, and seeing that the price was cheaper than coffee, she said, “I want to drink La Tea.”

As soon as she heard it, Jin Juli said, “I’ve heard of it, it’s Indian tea, I just haven’t drank it.”

Wang Wanchuan shook his head, “You won’t like this tea, it’s okay to taste it, or else I’ll order a cup for you too? It just so happens that don’t drink coffee.”

As a result, Jin Juli still insisted on asking for coffee.

Zhu Yan Shu side of the three people have to just have ordinary tea, they are already busy enough, Wang Wan Chuan looked and found that Ms. Zhu is still in the gentle and meticulous, painstakingly separating these two people, the three people have spent a lot of saliva, they really need to be nourished by tea.

A few people’s drinks come up, Wang Wanchuan went to the toilet, when he came back and sat down, Jin Juli went to the toilet again with Yang Yuyan, after they came back, there was an Indian waiter said that someone outside to send a jacket, it is for Ms. Jin.

Wang Wanchuan looked at their drinks all still untouched and said, “Drink your drinks before you go.”

Yang Yuyan hurriedly tasted her own La Tea, it was better than she imagined, although there was a strange flavor of cinnamon and star anise, but because enough sugar was put in, the sweetness dominated, sweet enough to be good enough to drink. The tea was a bit thick, she took a sip and stained the edge of her mouth.

Jin Juli smiled and took a handkerchief to her, turned back to see Wang Wanchuan also smiling, quietly glared at him, then his eyes down a certain point, froze for a moment, came to his side and whispered, “Big brother, where is your tie clip?”

Wang Wanchuan’s face changed, looked down and saw that the blue diamond tie clip was indeed gone!

Remembering that he had just gone to the toilet, he hurriedly got up and went to the toilet to look for it.

Yang Yuyan saw that his face didn’t look right as he hurried away and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Jin Juli’s eyes followed Wang Wanchuan, shook her head and whispered, “Nothing.”

But it was definitely not nothing. Because Wang Wanchuan quickly came out of the restroom and called the manager, and in a short while came three or four old men, all in suits, with an entourage, apparently all from the Grand Hotel as well.

Wang Wanchuan seems to be very angry, lashing out at this circle of people, the waiters were in a hurry, half of the cafe’s guests were scared away.

Zhu Yanshu realized something was wrong, “What’s going on here?”

Ma Tianbao hurriedly stood up and went over there, not long to come back, said to Jin Juli, “Missy, Mr. Wang asked me to send you back first.”

Jin Juli got up as instructed and said to Zhu Yanshu, “Ms. Zhu, then we’ll leave first, just leave the matters here to my big brother.”
