BXBX NOVEL Chapter 864 Old Classmate Long Time No See
"Alright, 'coincidentally met you'. What an interesting name." Zhou Manzhen smiled and touched her loose hair.
When he arrived at the western restaurant, it was just opening for business. Passing through a revolving door, Zhou Manzheng saw two rows of waiters, about 40 people, all wearing the same uniform, standing there neatly, their manager talking.
As soon as Xu Ningsheng and Zhou Manquan entered the restaurant, a waiter immediately came to welcome them. She clasped her hands and nodded at them, smiling as she said, "Hello, our restaurant has just started its opening for the night. Could the two of you please take a seat in the hall here for a while?"
"Alright." "Yes." Zhou Manzhen nodded. Her gaze, however, was focused on the figure in the distance.
That seemingly manager was wearing a black suit and was facing Zhou Manzhu. Due to the distance, Zhou Manzhu could not hear what he was saying. However, she felt that this person's figure was somewhat familiar, as if he was an old friend.
Xu Ningsheng looked at Zhou Manzhen, who seemed to be thinking about something, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong? What are you looking at? "
"It's nothing. I think I saw someone I know, but it shouldn't be him. I might have been mistaken." Zhou Man pulled his gaze back and walked towards the sofa in the hall.
"Should we go closer? What if it really is someone you know? " Xu Ningleng said with a warm expression on his face.
Zhou Manzhen frowned and said with a smile, "It can't be."
Last time, when she and Jin Beisheng went to B City for their honeymoon, they ran into Zhao Tianyu in a restaurant. Coincidentally, Zhao Tianyu was the owner of that restaurant, and Zhou Weiqing had always thought that he would never see this person again in his life.
Zhou Man sat quietly on the sofa. The waiter brought her a bowl of fruit and two glasses of lemonade. The water cup was very delicate and had a European style to it. Zhou Manzhen looked at the layout of the western restaurant and smiled, "This restaurant is quite strange."
"Oh? Is that so? What's strange about that? " Xu Ning Sheng asked with a smile.
"Why are the decorations on both sides different? It seems to be more romantic over there. " Zhou Manzhen extended her slender finger and pointed in the direction of the lovers' hall.
Xu Ningsheng pursed his lips and smiled. He also extended his finger and patiently answered for Zhou Manzhen, "Over there is the lovers' hall, over here is the friends' hall. They are separated."
Zhou Manzhen was silent for two seconds, then nodded in realization and said, "So that's how it is, then it's really interesting."
"Then which hall should we go to?" Xu Ningsheng stared straight at Zhou Manzhen as he asked.
Zhou Manzhen lowered her eyes and thought for a moment before asking, "Is there a private room here?"
"There is one on the second floor."
"You seem to be very familiar with this place."
Xu Ningsheng shook his head and explained, "Not really. I just came here last time and coincidentally met your husband and Su Muyi."
It was better to not say this out loud. After saying it, it was like a lump had stuck itself into Zhou Manzhen's heart. She curled her lips, her expression somewhat displeased.
"Let's not talk about him."
"Xiaochun, did I say something wrong? I didn't do it on purpose, so don't take it to heart. " Xu Ningsheng's shrewd eyes sized up Zhou Manzhen. Seeing that her expression was a little strange, he immediately apologized.
"I'm fine, I'm not angry. There's nothing going on between him and Su Mubai. Bei Sen really hates her, even more than I do." Zhou Manzhen smiled magnanimously, but what she said was the truth.
The manager's' lecture 'finally ended, and the restaurant began to open for business. Zhou Manzhen tidied up her fur dress before following Xu Ningsheng to stand up and slowly walk towards the second floor.
The manager in a black suit turned around and walked in the direction of Zhou Manzhen and Xu Ningsheng. He walked closer and closer until he was only ten meters away from Zhou Manzhu.
Zhou Manzhen stood there with a complicated expression on his face. His free hand was curled up on the side of his leg. His heartbeat suddenly quickened. Putong! Putong! It was somewhat frantic.
Zhao Tianyu was similarly stupefied, but he was pleasantly surprised as he looked at Zhou Manzhen. His eyes were filled with a faint enmity as he shot a glance at the man beside her.
Zhao Tianyu and Xu Ningsheng did not know each other, but Zhao Tianyu had heard of Xu Ningsheng's name. Xu Ningsheng was the youngest Deputy Director of the Education Bureau in the history of A City.
However, Xu Ningsheng did not know Zhao Tianyu, nor did he know that Zhou Manzhen and Zhao Tianyu had such a past.
Zhou Manzhen's footsteps were like lead. She didn't expect to run into her first love here. This restaurant's name was "Coincidentally meeting you", she really just happened to meet someone she shouldn't have met.
Years ago, before Zhao Tianyu had left, Zhou Weiqing had accompanied him on a tour of the A City First High School's sports field. The two of them had agreed that if they met again, she would forgive him.
Last time, they had already reunited in B City, but with Jin Beisheng around, Zhao Tianyu did not have the chance to meet with Zhou Manzhen, and just missed the opportunity to make her forgive him.
Zhao Tianyu stared at Xu Ningsheng for a full three seconds. He had only heard of Xu Ningsheng's name, but did not know what he looked like. In any case, he did not care about the matters of the educational world.
Men had different eyes when looking at men. When they saw a man who was even more handsome than them, they would feel jealous and even call him a sissy.
However, Xu Ningsheng was not a lady. He wore an expensive black suit, and the shoes on his feet were polished. His hair was very handsome, completely accentuating his noble temperament.
The mature and steady temperament that was emitted from Xu Ningsheng's body made Zhao Tianyu very jealous, but at the same time, the way he looked at Xu Ningsheng was a little strange. This was because the man standing next to Zhou Manzhen was not Jin Beisen, and Zhou Manzhen was even chatting and laughing with Xu Ningsheng, which was quite strange!
Zhou Manzhen stood there and did not intend to continue walking forward. The awkwardness was clearly written on his face.
Zhao Tianyu, on the other hand, was calm and smiled as he walked towards Zhou Weiqing, saying loudly, "Old classmate, long time no see."
Zhou Manzhu did not expect to run into Zhao Tianyu here. She restrained her embarrassed expression and said with an open and generous smile, "It's been a while."
