CHAPTER 464: CHAPTER 464

The manager glanced at the tightly closed private room door and said, "I’m sorry, but we cannot provide customer information to others without the consent of the customer themselves."

The manager tactfully refused Ye Chen’s request to access the customer information.

On one hand, this was indeed their restaurant’s commitment to their customers, and on the other hand, the guests in the private room were Miss Xi and her friends.

They dared not offend Miss Xi, fearing angering not only her but also the Feng Family behind her.

Ye Chen was still not willing to give up, truly feeling that the voice from the private room just now sounded so much like Yu Dingding...

So much so that he even considered forcing the door open to go in and check.

But the manager seemed to anticipate Ye Chen’s thoughts and quickly called over their boss.

"Young Master Ye, I have specially prepared a fine bottle of wine for you today, please come this way."

The boss also feared disturbing Miss Xi during her meal and had no choice but to pull Ye Chen away by all means necessary.

After all, if they offended Ye Chen, there might be a chance to make amends, but if they offended Miss Xi and irritated Feng Yu, then the whole family would have to gather at the crematorium.

"But I heard Dingding’s voice. She could very well be inside the private room..." said Ye Chen.

However, the boss was also eloquent and told Ye Chen, "The wine today is of an excellent vintage, after drinking it, whether it’s Dingding or Dangdang, you’ll see them in your dreams."

Ye Chen also felt this was reasonable.

Perhaps he had been longing to see Yu Dingding too much recently as every day, he would hear Yu Dingding’s voice several times, and occasionally he seemed to see her figure.

Only to realize after scouring the surroundings countless times that he couldn’t find Yu Dingding, it was just an illusion.

It was only when he was thoroughly drunk that he could vividly see Yu Dingding in his dreams, holding her and expressing his regret.

So he thought, maybe the voice of Yu Dingding he just heard was just another illusion like before.

To be honest, he really feared that he would rashly barge into someone else’s private room, once again fail to find Yu Dingding, and feel like his heart was being emptied...

So in the end, Ye Chen took one last deep look at the door of that private room, then dejectedly followed the boss to his own private room.

As the sound of Ye Chen’s footsteps faded away, the people inside the private room also breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Ye Chen did not push open the private room and caught Yu Dingding just returned, their dining mood was still affected, and they quickly prepared to check out.

Just as Jiang Moxi was about to pay, the boss received the news and hurriedly came out from Ye Chen’s private room.

"Miss Xi, it’s just the cost of a meal. You haven’t visited us in a long time, no need, really no need..."

The boss refused to take the money, but Jiang Moxi didn’t want to eat for free, so, after persuading the boss and paying for the meal, she walked out of Wangqiu Pavilion with Yu Dingding and Yu Tongshu.

At this moment, Jiang Tairan and Jiang Guosheng happened to lead some newly acquainted individuals to dine and discuss business at Wangqiu Pavilion.

They vaguely saw a figure, strikingly resembling Jiang Moxi, getting into a Cullinan car not too far away.

Jiang Tairan and Jiang Guosheng were surprised, wondering when Jiang Moxi had gotten herself a Cullinan, and were about to follow.

But then they heard the guests they were hosting today exclaim:

"No wonder they say that Wangqiu Pavilion is the best-known restaurant in Emperor City, to think we could encounter Miss Xi here."

So, the two who were about to follow had no choice but to stop in their tracks.

Jiang Tairan had invited someone named Wu Zhang, a fringe figure in the power circles of Emperor City.

However, since this person had been talking about the likes of Fu Family Patriarch and Miss Xi, who are central figures among the elite, Jiang Tairan came to regard him highly and wanted to use him as a gateway to expand the Jiang Family’s influence in Emperor City’s circles of power.

Thus came today’s occasion, dining at Wangqiu Pavilion, a place of renown in Emperor City.

Wu Zhang couldn’t praise Wangqiu Pavilion enough, going on to say, "A meal here could cost the equivalent of four tires of a sports car. But because the dishes are outstanding, it still attracts countless people."

Hearing that a single meal here could cost as much as four tires of a sports car, Jiang Tairan frowned instantly: "What kind of food is it that’s so expensive?"

Wu Zhang pointed at some private rooms not too far away and said, "They all use extremely top-grade fresh ingredients. Some specialty items that have just been caught are only available to those in those few rooms. Even if you had the money, they wouldn’t serve you."

"Who are those in those private rooms?" Jiang Guosheng asked.

They had just started expanding their endeavors in Emperor City and were eager to get to know everything about it through the words of others.

Wu Zhang was also only too happy to impart this knowledge to these newcomers, showing off his deep understanding of everything within Emperor City’s elite, clearly a cut above the rest.

"Basically, those are the people from the Fu and Feng Families. See that private room door with the plum blossom design? That was specially crafted for Miss Xi."

"Miss Xi? Mr. Wu, since you’ve brought up this Miss Xi numerous times, who exactly is she?"

Jiang Tairan asked out of curiosity.

"Miss Xi is none other than Miss Feng Xi of the Feng Family! She is the most esteemed young lady in the whole of Emperor City, adored and cherished by all... Mr. Feng Yu even wiped out an entire family once, just because they spoke ill of her."

Jiang Tairan and Jiang Guosheng exchanged a look upon hearing this.

Because, coincidentally, they both thought of Jiang Moxi.

Not only because they thought they had seen Jiang Moxi just now, but also because Feng Yu and the character "Xi" were mentioned together.

Especially Jiang Tairan, he couldn’t help but think of the time when Feng Yu was searching for that piece of ancient jade and mentioned "Xixi."

Could it be that Jiang Moxi is actually this Miss Xi?

Jiang Guosheng was also suspicious, after all, that emerald necklace that had allowed them to successfully knock on the door of THE ONE Group – Jiang Weiwei had to exhaust all means to find out that the necklace was with the Feng Family.

Yet Jiang Moxi managed to get her hands on the necklace ahead of Jiang Weiwei.

At that time, Jiang Guosheng couldn’t fathom how Jiang Moxi knew the necklace was with the Feng Family and how she managed to obtain it.

But if Jiang Moxi indeed was this Miss Xi, then everything would make sense.

So he hurriedly asked Wu Zhang: "Has Miss Xi been in Emperor City these past few years?"

If it’s confirmed that Miss Xi has always been in Emperor City, then it couldn’t be Jiang Moxi.

After all, Jiang Moxi has been living in Yan City for over four years.

But Wu Zhang was only a peripheral figure in the circles; how would he know Miss Xi’s whereabouts?

So he just said: "If Miss Xi is not at home, where else could she go?"

In any case, spouting any nonsense worked, as long as he could blind Jiang Tairan and Jiang Guosheng with awe.

That way, the project that was almost a failure in his hands could also be successfully offloaded.

"Are you sure? Do you have a photo of Miss Xi?" Jiang Guosheng pressed.
