The Young Matriarch

Chapter 156: Chapter 156: Even if You Break the Door, You Still Can’t Enter!

Bai Chuwei ordered a succession of dishes that were brought up, and Chef Cao even threw in a generous assortment of little desserts.

Bai Chuwei looked at Bai Yinyin and Liu Man with a smile brimming in her eyes, “Mother, Yinyin, would you like more?”

The family of three sighed in relief, and suddenly, Bai Chuwei realized with a flash, “That’s right, if you don’t eat, you really might miss the chance to taste Chef Cao’s dishes again, after all, Chef Cao won’t be taking any orders for the next twenty days.”

Bai Yinyin and Liu Man were so angry their voices were trembling, “You… you…”

That wretched girl, she was actually mocking them!

Bai Chuwei turned a deaf ear and leisurely picked up her chopsticks first to take the first dish, then casually said to the restaurant manager at her side, “Tell Chef Cao, no need to come see me, just focus on learning his recipes.”

Upon hearing this, the restaurant manager nodded repeatedly and retreated from the private room with the utmost respect.

The moment Chef Cao Jinhai got the news, he hurriedly finished preparing the dishes Bai Chuwei ordered, ready to take a shower and rush over to see her, but Bai Chuwei directly ordered him not to come.

After the waitstaff left, the meal officially began.

The clan of the main house observed Bai Chuwei thoughtfully.

Although it was a dinner gathering of two families, all present were older relatives, yet it seemed that Bai Chuwei was the invisible leader.

Bai Shang keenly noticed one thing—

It was only after Bai Chuwei picked up her chopsticks and took the first bite that Grandpa Bai Guofu started to eat his meal.

Indeed, worthy of being one of the top three chefs in Haicheng, Chef Cao Jinhai, the table was full of dishes that were a feast for the eyes and a delight to the taste, so much so that even Zhao Guangming couldn’t help but take a few extra bites.

Delicious!

Bai Chuwei ate at a leisurely pace, when suddenly her ears moved, and her brows furrowed, clicking her tongue lightly.

It truly didn’t allow one to have a peaceful meal.

Ever since he last saw Bai Chuwei at her father’s recovery banquet, Duan Xiuqi had been somewhat absent-minded these days.

Two pieces of news.

Bai Chu got married.

Bai Chuwei and Bai Chu almost looked identical.

However, Duan Xiuqi understood better than anyone that no one could stay young forever. The present Bai Chuwei was the spitting image of Bai Chu at eighteen, even if he had doubts when she told him Bai Chu was her aunt, he had no choice but to believe.

He wanted to talk to Bai Chuwei face to face. Just now, he happened to run into Bai Yinyin and learned their private room’s location.

Duan Xiuqi left the director behind and headed straight for private room 201.

“Knock knock knock” on the door, no one inside paid any attention, but the sounds of the Bai family eating, drinking, and laughing could be heard.

Duan Xiuqi’s eyebrows furrowed, and looking down, he saw warm yellow light filtering through the gaps of the wooden door, suggesting there should be someone inside.

Knocking again, still no response, but clearly there were sounds coming from inside…

He had just encountered a waiter, who said they had just served a meal in this private room.

With a wine glass in hand, Duan Xiuqi hesitated for a moment, placed his hand on the door lock; it wasn’t locked, but— n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

It wouldn’t open!!

What in the world.

“Xiuqi, what are you doing? The director is looking for you!” The agent finally found Duan Xiuqi after searching for a while and pulled him back to private room 209.

Duan Xiuqi, with his unruly character backed by the powerful Duan Family, really didn’t have anyone in the entertainment industry to trouble him, so there was no hope of expecting Duan Xiuqi to be offering any toast either.

The agent couldn’t understand why he took a wine glass to this private room!

Inside the private room, Bai Chuwei smiled with profound significance.

Keep knocking!

You won’t get in even if you break the door!
