As expected, Su Yicheng also saw him, and there was a faint, gentle smile on his face. He said, “Bureau Chief Tong, such a coincidence.”

“S-Special Assistant Su!” Bureau Chief Tong looked at him in shock.

“Are you also here to eat with your family, Bureau Chief Tong?” Su Yicheng said. He looked at the atmosphere in the private room and said, smiling, “This room certainly is good. No wonder why you also like it.” As he spoke, he turned around and said to Manager Zhang, who was standing to the side, “You should tell your boss to change the layout so that there are more private rooms with such a nice atmosphere. Perhaps, then, her business will be better.”

“Oh.” Manager Zhang was shocked. “Yes, yes, yes. I will definitely bring it up with the boss.”

“There’s no need. I’ll tell her,” Su Yicheng said.

“Do you know President Su?” Manager Zhang was a bit shocked.

“Yes. We’re very familiar.” Su Yicheng smiled and nodded. Youran Cuisine belonged to his younger sister, Su Yijiao. That girl always liked to eat and drink, and she paid particular attention to this matter. In the past, when they arranged her to work, she would quit within three months, saying that she liked her freedom and hated being restricted. Therefore, she directly asked their father for funds to start a business and opened Youran Cuisine. Unexpectedly, her business worked out pretty well.

Tong Wenhai smiled and looked at Su Yicheng. “Oh, I’ve really embarrassed myself in front of Special Assistant Su. My daughter has been pampered since childhood and has been spoiled by us. Miss Gu originally reserved this room, and, therefore, we naturally don’t have any reason to occupy it with force.” As he spoke, he turned around and said to Manager Zhang, who was on the side, “Manager Zhang, I will just stay in the room we were in. There’s no need to change it. Also, count the bill in this room on my bill.”

“Okay, I’ll go arrange it now.” Manager Zhang quickly said and gave the order to the others.

“There’s no need. Since you and your family like this room, then we won’t dampen your spirits. We will change rooms,” Su Yicheng said. He turned around to look at Anran and smiled at her placatingly.

“We understand the principle that there is a first and a second to everything. Before, we didn’t think that anyone had reserved this room. Xiaomin has been spoiled by us. Don’t be offended, Special Assistant Su,” Mrs. Tong, who had been sitting in the head seat this entire time, stood up and said, smiling. She was clearly a sophisticated woman.

“Yes,” Tong Wenhai responded. He looked at Anran, who was at the side, and asked, “Special Assistant Su and Miss Gu are?”

......

Upon hearing this, Su Yicheng turned around, reached out to pull Anran’s hand into his, and said, “My wife, Gu Anran.”

“Special Assistant Su is married?” Tong Wenhai was somewhat surprised. He did not hear that there was a marriage ceremony at the Old Man Su’s house and did not receive a wedding invitation.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Yes, we just got married.” Su Yicheng smiled, looked at his watch and said, “Stay here, Bureau Chief Tong. We’ll change rooms.”

“No, there’s no need. How can I let Special Assistant Su give way to me?” Tong Wenhai said. How could he dare allow him to give way to him? Leaving aside the fact that his status was higher than his, even he had to give face to the snobbishness of the Su Family.

“That’s fine.” Su Yicheng smiled. He turned around and said to Manager Zhang, “Manager Zhang, bring my wife to Whisper of Flowers first.”

“Oh, Whisper of Flowers is our President Su’s–” It was the room that she specifically left for family members. It was not given to outsiders.

Su Yicheng did not let him finish his sentence, interrupting, “I will inform your President.” As he spoke, he looked at Anran, smiling. “Head over with Manager Zhang first, and then call your parents to see if they have arrived.”

“But…” Anran wanted to say something, but Su Yicheng led her out and said next to her ear, “Be obedient. The atmosphere in ‘Whisper of Flowers’ is good. Mom will like it.”

Anran looked at him. She nodded and allowed the server to bring them to “Whisper of Flowers”.

“Whisper of Flowers” was next to Youran Cuisine’s garden on the first floor. The room wasn’t very big, but it was decorated very cozily, and they had a large glass window that went from the ceiling to the floor. They didn’t need to go out to see the scenery outside. There was a small door next to the window. It was also made from glass. On the other side of the door, there was a path paved with pebbles. There were pieces of wood on it, and it was surrounded by all kinds of flowers. It was very beautiful, and the air was filled with the scent of the flowers–the fragrance of the flowers flowing into their noses. At this moment, the lamp in the small garden was lit, and it made the colors even more gorgeous.

The second Anran walked into the room, she fell in love with it. This room was incomparable to the previous room and was better than it many times over.

When Anran called her mother, Lin Xiaofen, and the others were already at the front. Anran went to pick them up. When they walked into the room, Lin Xiaofen also directly fell in love with it and said that she could smell the flowers even with her eyes closed.

When Su Yicheng walked in, Anran was walking in the garden with Lin Xiaofen and Gu Hengwen. The three people talked and laughed. That picture was beautiful and warm. Su Yicheng stood at the door, watching them for a while before calling, “Anran.”

At this time, the three people saw Su Yicheng, who was standing at the door. Anran was shocked. Suddenly, her small face wrinkled. She was annoyed at herself for forgetting about him, even more, vexed at the fact that she would have to introduce her parents to him later.

In comparison to Anran, Mr. and Mrs. Gu were more curious as to this man’s identity, as well as his relationship with Anran.

“Anran, who is he?” Gu Hengwen spoke first. He looked at his daughter first and then looked at the man in front of him.

“H-He is…” Anran was still thinking about how she should introduce him in order to not scare her parents.

“Anran, let Mom and Dad come in first. The dishes are about to be served,” Su Yicheng said, smiling. The words “dad” and “mom” flowed out of him naturally, as if he had called them that thousands of times. It was not awkward or sudden at all.

It wasn’t awkward or sudden for him. However, the words “dad” and “mom” scared Gu Hengwen and Lin Xiaofen. They looked at him in shock, unable to say anything.

Anran saw that the atmosphere wasn’t right, and she rolled her eyes at Su Yicheng. Then said to her parents, “Dad, Mom, let’s go in first.”

Gu Hengwen was an intellect. He looked at his daughter, and went into the room, not saying anything.

When she saw her husband walking into the room, Lin Xiaofen quickly followed.
