143. Back to eating

''Oh... so you are Song Zhan.'' Qi Longwei's could voice rang in the now silent room.

''Yes. I'm honored that president Qi heard of me.''

With this said, Song Zhan pushed herself closer towards Qi Longwei only for him to push her down.

''You should have wiped all your traces when you tried to harm someone close to me.'' Qi Longwei stayed seated but while his voice was cold and overbearing, his hands were bussy wiping itself with a napkin.

The word stunned could no longer give justice to the feeling Song Zhan was experiencing at the moment. She had thought that she had gotten him in her palms. That was such a big mistake. How could she forget how many tried to get close to this person and how many perished in his hands. How could she have overestimated herself?

''President Qi I-"

''Shut up. If you wanted to harm her, you should have prepared well. You should have hidden well. Even then, I would have hunt you down. You dared to raise your dirty paws towards the person I cherish most. Did you think you could escape?''

Qi Longwei's voice turned colder and colder while the vains on his forehead bulged. One could easily tell that he was angry. No, not angry, that is a term too light. He could only be called furious.

''President Qi, I I don't under- understand wh- what you a- are talking a- about.''

''You still dare to deny? Qi Yi.''

With a single command, Qi Yi took out a file gave it to Qi Longwei, who flunged it on the table with a huge amount of force. No one dared to pick it up to read. The atmosphere in the room had turned sniffling.

After what seemed like an eternity to those who were present, a fair hand picked up the file. Everyone except Qi Longwei followed the hand to find out who was the brave soul who didn't fear death only to find out Li Zhilan's sweet yet innocent fairy like face. On that face, ther wasn't a trace of fear. Instead, I was shrouded with what seemed an expression which normally represents someone who is bored. Yes bored. In the midst of such a huge pressure, this little Missy was feeling bored.

As if not noticing the weird glances she was getting, which she already experienced for quite a few time this evening, Li Zhilan opened up the file and flipped through it.

''No bad huh... You even found such minute details.'' She genuinely compliment Qi Longwei while continuing to flip by and at the same time nodded her head quite a couple of times as if she was appreciating a marvelous piece of art.

After looking through everything, Li Zhilan sat the file aside and went BACK TO EATING. This girl was eating the whole time this faisco was happening. Since the time she picked up her chopsticks, she had never put I down. And the dishes had already reduced by quite a bit as well. Except for the bowl of soup, which was still almost the same as before, everything else was finished by a third.

''Why are you eating so slowly? And you didn't even order sweet and sour king prawns. What? Did your taste change?'' Qi Longwei said as he took a napkin to wipe the corner of Li Zhilan's mouth at the same time.

''What do you mean I'm eating slowly? I'm just taking my own time alright? And about sweet and sour king prawns. They had already ordered before I came and then that faisco happened. How could I have the time to order it? If you remembered it, why didn't you order it. It's not like there would be too much of it and even if there was, I don't think that teeny bit of money will make a dent in your pocket.'' The way Li Zhilan retorted made everyone still for a moment in fear. President Qi wiping the mouth of someone else was already a big thing and now that person even dared to talk back to him. With the number of times they had frozen in shock and fear, they could pass of as a statue any moment. The training itself was very unique and interesting is not dangerous, if you could say that.

''What do you mean I didn't order it for you. I did okay? It's just that they are taking too much of a time.'' Qi Longwei felt like he was seriously wronged. Even before he had entered the restaurant, he had ordered for sweet and sour king prawns to be served in this particular room but it just wasn't in time. How could she blame him for their lack of customer service?

Thankfully assistant Qi Yi didn't hear it or he would really complain out loud.

Because it wasn't that the kitchen was slow in their service, it's just that to cater to the boss's order is a bit too tough. The boss didnt ask for one or two servings. He had asked the kitchen to make use of each and every king prawn they had when preparing this dish. That was why they were so late.

''Alright then. Let's wait for the sweet and sour king prawns then. And yeah, before either forget, weren't you dealing with her? Why did you stop or you want me to deal with her personally.

''I'll deal with her. I'll do it. Why should you dirty your hands for her. It's not worth it.''

''Then get it over quickly. Why are you ruining everyone's mood out here. I am starting to loose my appetite because of eating all alone when there are so many surrounding me.''

Little Missy, atleast have the courtesy to find a better lie. What 'loose my appetite'? You have already eaten so much. Instead of loosing your appetite, it should be that you are full.

''OK. I'll get it done quickly. And maybe by that time, the sweet and sour king prawns might also just be ready. Just hold on a little.''
