Chapter 126 Wind Bamboo Pavilion


    “I’ll be damned. Come quickly Tongxin. That jerk is here!”


    “I thought he was in a rtionship with Zhao Yifan? Why is he standing at the entrance of our


    ssroom?”


    “Tsk, does this loser have his eyes on Tongxin as well? Oh my, why did Zhao Yifan agree to be


    his girlfriend? What was she thinking?”


    The moment Chen Hao reached the entrance of Su Tongxin’s ssroom, he was immediately ridiculed


    by the crowd. However, Chen Hao was already immune to this.


    He only wanted to ask Su Tongxin out for a walk.


    Su Tongxin was surprised that Chen Hao came to find her in person as she was waiting for him to call


    her back again. Unexpectedly, just when she was on the verge of disappointment, he showed up at her


    ss. Needless to say, she agreed to go out for a walk with him.


    That was because she made the decision to trust him again. In fact, after pping him the other day,


    she had regretted her actions because no matter how much she thought about it, Chen Hao just wasn’t


    that kind of person. Therefore, when Chen Hao exined the situation to her just now, she immediately


    believed him.


    Under everyone''s surprised gaze, they walked out of the ssroom to the campus walkway.


    “Chen Hao, do you remember my cousin who returned from M Countryst time? She was busy sorting


    out some business matters these past few days but she is currently free and she really wants to meet


    you. I tried to postpone the meeting with her several times but I couldn’t drag anymore.”


    Then, Su Tongxin said, “I would like you to treat my cousin to a meal.”


    “Ok, no problem. When is sheing?”


    When Chen Hao saw that Su Tongxin wasn’t angry anymore, he knew that he did not have to worry


    about this matter any further and agreed to her right then.


    “You don’t have any sses in the afternoon right? Shall we set the lunch date at noon? My cousin will


    be busy the next few days and after that she will be leaving for M Country again.”


    “Sure!”


    After finalizing their ns, Chen Hao started to look around for a suitable ce for their lunch date.


    He did not want to go to the Jin Ling Commercial Street as he was too familiar with that area. Besides,


    if he were to go there, it would look as if he was unting himself.


    After discussing with Li Zhenguo, they eventually settled for a quiet ce called Wind Bamboo Pavilion


    where Li Zhenguo promptly made reservations.


    Although it was not part of the Jin Ling Commercial Street, it was one of the restaurants that was built


    and developed by the Jin Ling Commercial Group.


    In terms of financial performance, thebined profits of three or four ordinary restaurants at the Jin


    Ling Commercial Street could not measure up to Wind Bamboo Pavilion’s profits.


    After hearing that, Chen Hao decided on the Wind Bamboo Pavilion and came here with Su Tongxin.


    When they arrived, Chen Hao felt that the Wind Bamboo Pavilion wasn’t as huge as he thought it would


    be.


    It was as if they were stepping out of the city into a small vige on the mountains. All the rooms of the


    pavilion were made out of rocks.


    The style was simr to that of the period when Republic of China was established. It was quite


    elegant.


    “Tang Chu, over here!”


    Within less than half an hour, a fashionably-dressed beautiful woman walked into the restaurant.


    Chen Hao and Su Tongxin were waiting at the entrance. When Su Tongxin saw her, she greeted her


    with delight.


    “Tongxin, who chose this ce and why? It’s so old-fashioned.”


    The woman named Tang Chu walked over. She took off her sunsses and scanned the surroundings


    with a look of disdain.


    “Nice to meet you Tang Chu, my name is Chen Hao. I reserved this ce.”


    Chen Hao smiled casually.


    Tang Chu was almost simr to Tang Ran. She was an exceptionally beautiful woman and she also had


    a different aura due to her being an overseas returnee.


    Anyhow, her immediate nitpicking attitude was within Chen Hao’s expectations.


    He chuckled to himself. Wasn’t her younger sister, Tang Ran like that as well?


    “So, you are Chen Hao then. I have been wanting to meet you. I heard both of my sisters telling me


    that you are a rich guy. You could even afford a Lamborghini with the winnings from the lottery. Haha,


    so how could you bring me to a ce like this?” said Tang Chu while walking into the private room. She


    was indeed a blunt person.


    Furthermore, she even pinched her nose lightly.


    It was so clean here, so how could it smell? Chen Hao only smiled bitterly and shook his head.


    “Chen Hao, tell me, how much money do you have left from the lottery winnings?” Tang Chu


    immediately went straight to the topic.


    Chen Hao smiled faintly. “Not much, it’s almost gone.”


    “Haha, I can tell. People like you have the ssic upstart mentality. It’s good for those who know how


    to be thrifty. However, for one like yourself, the moment you obtain your winnings, you spend it on a


    luxury car. You definitely got ahead of yourself!”


    Tang Chu shook her head lightly while Chen Hao only smiled bitterly and nodded his head.


    It seemed that Su Tongxin and Tang Ran did not tell her about his true identity yet. In a way, they were


    helping him out by keeping it a secret.


    “So, Chen Hao, what are your future ns?” asked Tang Chu.


    “I haven’t figured it out yet,” replied Chen Hao in a careless manner. Then, he thought to himself, Why


    is it always the same questions?


    Tang Chu shook her head in disappointment.


    Su Tongxin tried to change the topic at this moment.


    “Tang Chu, didn’t you say that you were expecting your friends who were working and studying abroad


    with you to arrive in Jin Ling today? Where are they?”


    “Oh yeah, they will be arriving soon. Sigh. Originally, I wanted to invite them over for lunch and


    introduce them to you so that you guys could get acquainted with them. They are considered the crème


    de crème of those who went abroad to pursue their studies. However, just look at this ce! How


    could I invite them over to such a tasteless ce?”


    “Huh? Tang Chu, I think this ce that Chen Hao reserved is quite nice. Furthermore, they have


    amodations here as well. We could even arrange a ce for them to stay here,” said Su Tongxin.


    “Hah! Do you want me to embarrass myself in front of my friends by letting them stay in a ce like


    this?” Tang Chu was feeling exasperated.


    Her phone suddenly rang at that moment.


    She quickly answered it.


    “What? You guys have arrived? Huh? Your brother is fetching you? Yes, I haven’t eaten yet, but I am


    nning to have lunch with my cousin now. I think it’s called the Wind Bamboo Pavilion. Do-Don’t


    As Tang Chu spoke, she cast a disgusted look at Chen Hao since she thought that he was a person


    with low standards.


    “I’ll be damned. You guys are actuallying?”


    Nobody knew what went on during their conversation. However, the overall conclusion was, Tang Chu’s


    friends wereing to the Wind Bamboo Pavilion to take a look and this nearly scared the living


    daylights out of her.


    After that, she hung up the phone.


    “My dear cousin, I am going to embarrass myself in front of my friends today because of you. I


    postponed one or two gatherings with my local ssmates just toe here this afternoon. s, look


    at the mess your boyfriend made. Initially, I had wanted him to also help arrange my friends’


    amodation, but let’s just forget about it,” said Tang Chu woefully.

    Chen Hao was speechless.


    The Wind Bamboo Pavilion looked modest, but here in Jin Ling, other than the extremely expensive


    dishes at the Hot Spring Vi, nothing else could match the prices of the dishes here in the Wind


    Bamboo Pavilion.


    The Hot Spring Vi’s main theme was abination of scenery, entertainment and dining.


    On the other hand, as it’s name implied, the Wind Bamboo Pavilion’s main theme was about fine dining


    in an elegant, vintage looking environment.


    The vast expanse of bamboo and stone huts illustrated that point.


    In addition to that, the chefs here were some of the top culinary experts in the country’s local cuisine.


    However, judging from her looks, Tang Chu was not satisfied with the ce. If he knew this earlier, he


    would have arranged their lunch date at the Hot Spring Vi.


    Just then, a luxury car drove inside and Tang Chu’s phone rang.


    Tang Chu stood up in embarrassment. “They still came. Sigh. Guess I’ll just have to show them


    around.”


    While answering her phone, Tang Chu walked out with her arms swinging by her sides.


    “Wei Lin, Nuo Yi, you guys came!”


    “Of course we came, Chu. But I’ll be damned. What kind of ce is this? It doesn’t look like much!”


    Two pretty girls alighted from the car and greeted Tang Chu.


    One of them named Wei Lin dragged the driver to the front of Tang Chu. Apparently, the driver was a


    handsome young man.


    “Chu, this is my younger brother Wei Qiang. He came from Wuzhou specifically to fetch me and he


    insisted on apanying me to do some shopping in Jin Ling.”


    “Wow, Wei Qiang is really a handsome young man.” Tang Chu was smiling from ear to ear.


    “Chu, nice to meet you. I couldn’t believe my ears when I heard my sister praising your beauty.


    However, after meeting you in person, you are way more beautiful than what my sister described!” said


    Wei Qiang with a smile as he smoothed out his suit.


    Tang Chu was really ttered.


    “By the way, Chu, is this beautiful youngdy your cousin Su Tongxin? The one that you often


    mentioned to us? She seemed to be about the same age as my brother,” said Wei Lin with a smile.


    Wei Qiang took one look at Su Tongxin and he couldn’t take his eyes off her as she was just too pretty.


    “Haha, that’s right. I wanted to introduce her to Wei Qiang so that they can get acquainted with each


    other and get along as friends.”


    Tang Chu smiled while turning her head and motioned Su Tongxin toe over and greet them.


    However, she suddenly recalled that Su Tongxin already had a boyfriend and this unpleasant looking


    guy was standing right beside her.


    Oh my! How could she forget about Chen Hao?


    “Nice to meet you, Wei Lin. This is my boyfriend, Chen Hao. He will be treating us to lunch today.”


    Su Tongxin held onto Chen Hao''s arm and introduced him wholeheartedly.


    Both Wei Lin and Wei Qiang looked disappointed when they saw this.


    So she already had a boyfriend?


    “Haha, is there anything good to eat around here? I heard my friends saying that the best ce to dine


    in Jin Ling City is a ce called the Jin Ling Commercial Street. There is a restaurant called Homecook


    Kitchen Restaurant there and I heard that it is not too bad. Let’s go there and eat. My treat!”


    “I’ve heard of that ce before. Ok, let’s go there then.”


    Tang Chu obviously did not have any opinions.


    The Homecook Kitchen Restaurant was a far cry from this ce.


    However, since they did not appreciate this ce, Chen Hao wasn’t in any position toment further.


    Since they were willing to go, then so be it. . .
