Chapter 898: Meet an Acquaintance Again

Hearing these words, Shi Lei felt in his heart that this was the macro adjustment made by Heika.

And Zhao Di also felt a little embarrassed. His boss, who had been kind to him and even gave him a fortune of over 100 million, wanted to treat him to dinner, but his girlfriend had to ask other people for their opinions.

"Xiaodie, Master Shi's identity is already special enough. What kind of friend of yours can your identity be more special than Master Shi's?"

Xiaodie was in a bit of trouble, so Shi Lei quickly said: "Manager Zhao, everyone has a different identity, and my identity is nothing special. I'm just a businessman. You'd better listen to your sister-in-law's opinion, otherwise I won't be eating this meal. I dare to eat with you.”

When Zhao Di saw that Shi Lei had already said this, he didn't dare to say anything more. He just looked at his girlfriend deeply.

Xiaodie also said quickly: "Master Shi, I'm really sorry. This friend of mine... I'll call her first. Since Master Shi is not in a hurry to leave, we still have to stay for a few days. If it's really... No, Zhao Di and I will treat you to dinner tomorrow."

Shi Lei smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. It's not important for us to eat. Even if we can't eat in London, it will be the same when we return to Wudong."

Xiaodie glanced at Shi Lei gratefully, and her impression of Shi Lei became even better.

Walking aside, Xiaodie called out.

The other party was a very outgoing girl. As soon as she saw Xiaodie calling, she immediately answered the call.

"Hey, honey, have you missed me so much? We made an appointment for dinner, and it's not even two o'clock in the afternoon, and you can't wait to see me?"

Xiaodie said a little embarrassedly: "Jenny, something unexpected happened."

"What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Or is your boyfriend feeling uncomfortable?"

Xiaodie said: "After we had dinner at noon, I took him to visit Big Ben for a walk. Unexpectedly, he actually met his boss."

"What happened when I met the boss? Isn't Zhao on vacation? Even the boss can't let employees work during vacation, right?"

"It's not that he is asked to work, but that his boss is a very nice person and a very gentleman. He said that we met in a foreign country. This is fate, so he wants to treat us to a meal."

"But you made an appointment with me!" Jenny has a typical British mentality. She feels that no matter how big the deal is, as long as the appointment is made, it must not be changed to someone else.

Of course Xiaodie knew Jenny's character, she explained: "His boss is very nice. He heard that we had an appointment with you tonight, so he told us to reschedule."

"That's quite the gentlemanly thing to do."

"But Zhao Di has always been grateful to his boss. If it weren't for his boss, he wouldn't have achieved his current status and career so quickly. He suggested that you would go to the appointment alone anyway. In this way, plus his boss, the four It would be more pleasant to chat and drink in person. Oh, by the way, his boss is very young and just graduated from college this year. Moreover, he is very handsome and has very typical oriental features. Let me tell you, his boss. Last year I was just an ordinary college graduate, but now I have a net worth of billions. Of course, I am talking about Soft Girl Coin..."

"Hey Butterfly, are you introducing me to your boyfriend?"

"You don't know, his boss is very famous in China. Not only is he an entrepreneurial businessman, he is also a favorite on social media. Many of my best friends call him the national husband. If you can fall in love with him, it will be a blessing. It’s also a good thing…”

"Hey! Am I so unable to get married? I actually need you to introduce me to a boyfriend, and he's an Oriental. Do you want us to be like your Chinese Cowherd and Weaver Girl across the sea?"

Xiaodie burst out laughing and said, "It seems you don't object?"

"Since he is a handsome young talent, I have no reason to object. What's more, he is your boyfriend's boss. I think your boyfriend must really want to have more private communication with his boss."

"My dear, you are so considerate. I love you, so that's it."

After hanging up the phone, Xiaodie's mood finally lifted. She returned to Shi Lei and Zhao Di and said, "It's okay Jenny, Mr. Shi, if you don't mind, how about we have a four-person date tonight? "

Zhao Di grabbed Xiaodie and said, "Don't be ridiculous, Mr. Shi has a girlfriend..."

Xiaodie shrugged her shoulders and said, "Please, this is England, not China. The date here is when young people get together to eat and drink together. It's not like your old-fashioned thinking, where it has to be between male and female friends. A dating relationship.”

Shi Lei always felt that there must be some problems here. The Jenny mentioned by Xiaodie was probably related to the mayor of London. Of course, he had no reason to object.

Moreover, he was not familiar with the place in London, and it was indeed boring to eat alone. Now that he was accompanied by Zhao Di and others, it would be much easier.

"It's okay for me. It's just a good time to get to know a real British person. In the past, I always heard that British people are more old-fashioned in China. I thought your classmate and good friend would not be willing to have another stranger."

Xiaodie smiled happily and said, "Jenny is a very nice person, but her family..." She shrugged her shoulders, still not saying enough, "So sometimes, I have to worry about her thoughts. I hope you don't mind, Mr. Shi." "

Shi Lei nodded and said, "I understand. Even if you are just an ordinary person, you still need to seek the other person's opinion."

So, what was originally a stroll for one person turned into a tour for three people. With Xiaodie as a guide, Shi Lei's understanding of London became much deeper.

At about four o'clock, they had afternoon tea in a cafe. Xiaodie said that she was going to Jenny's place and asked Zhao Di to take Shi Lei directly to the booked restaurant later.

Shi Lei and Zhao Di simply stayed in the cafe until dinner time. Anyway, the restaurant was not far away, so they walked over.

Shi Lei and Zhao Di sat down before Xiaodie and Jenny arrived.

The restaurant was very old-fashioned, a typical traditional British restaurant.

In the center of the restaurant, there was actually a dance floor, surrounded by two circles of tables and chairs. There were only a dozen tables in such a large place, and they were all small tables for two or four people.

This is London, where every inch of land is valuable. Such a large restaurant has only a dozen tables, and it can only accommodate thirty people. It is really a bit extravagant and wasteful.

"It's really extravagant. Such a large restaurant has only a dozen tables." Shi Lei commented with a smile.

Zhao Di said: "This place was booked by Jenny. It is a bit like our private clubs in China. The consumption is relatively high, but the grade is also relatively high. No reservations are accepted unless you are a member."

Shi Lei nodded and looked around. Suddenly, he was stunned. He actually saw someone he knew.

It's not that they are too familiar. They just know each other. They met once in Sydney at the beginning, but there was not much communication. There was no contact since then.

The man happened to turn around and saw Shi Lei. He was also stunned.

Then, the man stood up with a smile, walked towards Shi Lei, and said with a smile: "Mr. Shi, I didn't expect to see you in London. This is really an unexpected coincidence."

Shi Lei also stood up, stretched out his hand, shook hands with the man, and said: "Mr. Dai, it's really a coincidence. I'm very happy to see you here."
