Yu Yuehan watched as Nian Xiaomu pranced about in a chirpy manner before he hurriedly pushed open the car door and followed behind her.

He pulled her back just before she pounced into Zheng Yan’s embrace.

He dragged her to his side and hugged her tightly in his embrace.

Then, he tried his best to keep a calm composure and studied the three people who were standing in front of him.

They seemed to have just arrived as well. Zheng Yan stood in the middle, while Fan Yu and Mo Yongheng were like her two guardians who each took a place beside her.

Fan Yu was smiling, but Mo Yongheng remained expressionless.

When he spotted them, however, he nodded his head slightly and greeted them.

On the other hand, Zheng Yan was also very surprised to bump into Nian Xiaomu at this location as she hurried forward excitedly.

“Why are you guys here too? You did not seem too interested when I recommended this place to you, so I thought that you would not be coming.”

“I wasn’t that interested earlier, but today is different, so I came over. It had never crossed my mind that I would bump into you… guys.” Nian Xiaomu swept her gaze across Fan Yu and Mo Yongheng.

As she pulled Zheng Yan toward her, she leaned forward and muttered softly beside her ears.

“Have the three of you been hanging out together the entire day today?”

Zheng Yan has indeed amazed the world with a brilliant feat!

Her door to love has opened, two doors no less!

Even Nian Xiaomu the matchmaker was stunned. How did she manage to settle both men at the same time and even have them coexist peacefully?

“Don’t let your thoughts run wild! We are just friends; Fan Yu does not like me, let alone Mo Yongheng. You are not aware of this, but the number of times I asked him for some opinions on a few collaboration projects today equates to the number of times I was glared at. I was so intimidated by his glares that I hurriedly made the decision to treat them to a meal to show my appreciation. Oh my, stop mocking me. I still want to be alive for a few more years!”

Zheng Yan said truthfully and sincerely.

She displayed a look that spelled ‘love is dear, but life is dearer’.

“…”

After a series of greetings, the five of them walked in.

Apart from Zheng Yan, the other four of them were here for the first time. As such, it was natural for Zheng Yan to lead the way.

They only realized that the decors inside were even more exquisite when they entered the courtyard.

There was a unique screen inside each and every private room. Apart from this, they were also furnished with a vintage yet simple decor.

The moment they entered the restaurant, a faint and light tea fragrance whiffed into their nostrils.

Every note was refreshing to the mind.

There was a hint of period feel in the wooden tables and chairs, yet they were not old and shabby at all.

A waitress delivered them the menu of the day right after they sat down.

“Their menu changes every day and only the dishes on the menu today can be ordered. Also, their chefs make really delicious dishes. You will definitely want to come back again for another meal!” Zheng Yan said as she sat on the chair that Fan Yu had pulled out for her and picked up the menu.

Fan Yu sat down beside her conveniently after he helped her to settle down in her seat.

Just as she was about to call Nian Xiaomu over to sit in the seat beside her, Mo Yongheng had already pulled the chair out and sat down on it.

The words that were about to leave Zheng Yan’s mouth were choked back instantly.

She lowered her head and studied the menu silently.

They were quite lucky today as Zheng Yan had previously ordered some of the dishes that appeared on the menu. As such, Zheng Yan ordered the same few dishes without a second thought.

She then asked the staff for recommendations of other unique dishes.

The moment she put the menu away, she turned around and looked at the two men beside her.

“Anything else that you guys wanted to eat? This meal is a treat from me to thank both of you for your help. Please don’t stand on ceremony!”

This meal was definitely worth it for all the help that Fan Yu and Mo Yongheng had rendered today, no matter how she did the math!

Fan Yu poured a cup of tea for her and said jokingly, “Young Master Han is here, don’t snatch the bill from him.”
