My Villainous Wife Chapter 4
Advertisement
When Yan Xiaoran heard 'golden thigh' from Shen Liu's mouth earlier in the lobby, she actually doubted her own hearing and didn't believe him but as soon as he said that, a man suddenly stepped in and swiftly guided them to the table of 'Golden Thigh'.
The man who guided them was a bald man with a small stature and he introduced himself as the restaurant's manager, Chen Kai.
Chen Kai was more polite and respectful than the female employee in the lobby and would definitely match the description of an employee working under Buddha.
And unlike the female employee, Chen Kai didn't grimace at her outfit and professionally guided them through the oak table scattered in the public area and to one of the private booths upstairs.
Soon, they stopped in front of a private booth after passing by a few other more and opened the door. The interior inside the private booth had the traditional Japanese design and gave the impression of peacefulness.
The three of them entered.
Inside the booth, an old man with grey long hair was wearing an outfit befitting the room theme and was sitting in front of the table. The table was already spread with different cuisines and from the look of it, he didn't wait for his guests to come and ate a few of the food.
"Mr. Qu?" Yan Xiaoran called him.
"Miss Yan, you're here." Robert Qu said with a warm smile and pointed at the chair beside him, "Come and sit here. You were just released from that place and must have an empty stomach, let's eat."
Yan Xiaoran frowned and didn't want to move but it was her stomach who answered on behalf of her.
Once the sound of her stomach protesting against her was heard by the other three men in the room, Yan Xiaoran blushed and glared down at her stomach then, she heard Robert Qu speaking, "No need to make your stomach suffer. Sit and eat."

This time, Yan Xiaoran didn't shy away after what her stomach did and sat down, however, before she sat down, the driver who came with them pulled a chair for her to sit on.
"Thank you." She didn't forget to thank the driver as she glanced at the mouth-watering food spread on top of the table.
She heard of people saying that once an ex-convict was released from prison, the family of the ex-convict would carry some food for the ex-convict to eat and it to celebrate his or her release.
However, the food prepared for her didn't come from a family but a stranger and was extremely high class and delicious that Yan Xiaoran could already taste the flavors in her mouth without even touching it yet.
Yan Xiaoran sighed.
If only the food that was served inside the prison was like this every day, Yan Xiaoran would be very happy inside the prison. The food in front of her was a hundred times, no, a million times better than the stale and dry food that was served to them, convicts.
"Please, do eat. I ordered everything you liked based on the information I got from my men and if it's not enough, you can order some more." Robert Qu said as he looked at her warmly.
The expression he used in his face was similar to how grandparents would show to their spoiled grandchildren.
But Yan Xiaoran paused at these words and felt agitated when he said that he based the food in front of her from her tastes.
Truth be told, Yan Xiaoran was also really happy when she saw her favorite food on the table and couldn't wait to gobble them up. But with the knowledge that Robert Qu had, having her investigated and getting information about her, Yan Xiaoran became vigilant.

"You don't have to look at me like that. I won't do anything to you or did Shen Liu tell you to be so cautious to me?" Robert Qu laughed and teased Shen Liu who was also sitting on the other side of the table.
"I also said the same thing to miss Yan, sir. But it seems that Boss is too intimidating making Miss Yan uncomfortable." Shen Liu stated as he raised his hand to pick up the fork to his left.
Robert Qu only chuckled at Shen Liu's comment.
Yan Xiaoran's eyes turned to look at Shen Liu who was now sitting across her. The relationship between Robert Qu and Shen Liu didn't look like between employer and employee but between best buddies that have experienced a lot of pain and adventures in life together.
She also noted that Robert Qu didn't scold them for joining them in the table, even the driver was sitting beside her and was silently eating without making a sound.
Yan Xiaoran was speechless at this scene.
As she had lived inside the Zhao family's mansion, Yan Xiaoran knew how much wealthy people loved to keep their appearance publicly or privately that they wouldn't allow the people they employ and pay to eat with them much less, in the same table.
And thus, she couldn't imagine, Robert Qu, the wealthiest man in Asia to be doing this and even act like nothing was wrong.
If the Zhao's and other socialites see this scene, they wouldn't stop their jaws from falling on the floor.
Most businessmen admired Robert Qu and tried to imitate him, and gets arrogant when they reached the top. However, if they witness this, they would rub their eyes with sandpaper and bleed.
Yan Xiaoran gave up and decided to follow their examples and used her fork to stab a beautifully plated fish. She waited for it to come back to life and attack her. When it didn't, she sliced it into small pieces and ate it.
She carefully chewed it and swallowed it. She paused for a second before continuing to impale the fish.
Well, at least it's not poisoned. Yan Xiaoran thought.
