"Once you arrive, you'll understand." He turned the steering wheel and quickly drove the car out of the garage.
Mu Tongzi certainly knew how to choose a place; he took her to a unique private dining restaurant. If she hadn't been there before, very few people would know that such a restaurant existed deep in this alley.
This restaurant was located in a remote area, and since cars couldn't enter the alley, they had to park outside and walk over. The old building exuded a sense of history, with grayish-blue walls creating a vast space. Two stone lions stood at the entrance, resembling the courtyard of an ancient noble family.
After walking for a while down the quiet alley, faint sounds of children playing could be heard. In this bustling and noisy city, it was surprising to find such a peaceful haven.
With Mu Tongzi's status, dining in such a place felt somewhat out of place.
Walking beside him, she turned her head to glance at him and said, half-seriously and half-jokingly, "I thought rich people like you would choose luxurious places like Purple Gold clubs or high-end restaurants for dining. I never expected you to come to such an obscure little place!"
Hearing her playful teasing, Mu Tongzi didn't rush to refute her; he simply smiled lightly.
"I usually go to those places just for socializing. Right now, I just want to have a simple meal. The purpose is different, so naturally, the places we go are different."
Upon reaching the restaurant's entrance, two waitstaff waiting by the door saw Mu Tongzi approaching and quickly stepped forward respectfully to greet him: "Mr. Mu, welcome! Please come in!"
Green Qi glanced at him and saw that he casually smiled at them before following them into his usual dining room. It seemed he was indeed a regular here.
The spacious courtyard was beautifully designed. They walked through a stone path shaded by lush bamboo, revealing a shimmering lake ahead. The willows by the lake swayed gracefully, with morning light filtering through them in delicate strands.
As they passed through the intricately carved corridor, the terrain gradually flattened out. The blue stones paved the way all the way to the end, with the fragrance of flowers lingering in the air. In such a large courtyard with only two private rooms, it was indeed extremely luxurious in today's land-scarce A City.
The decor of the private room follows the simple elegance of the Qing Dynasty, featuring Rosewood and Blue and White Porcelain. Everywhere you look, there are elements of Chinese style, grand yet understated.
Once seated, Mu Tongzi signaled for a waiter to come over and ordered a few small dishes along with two servings of special congee. Taking advantage of the moment before the food arrived, he reached over and took the folder from her side, opening it to examine its contents carefully.
Noticing the various marks she had made on the documents, he looked up and extended his hand towards her. "Give me your phone."
"Oh." She took out her phone from her bag and handed it to him, blinking in confusion. "What do you need it for?"
He took the phone and entered a series of numbers. "This is Xia Yu's phone number. If you can't reach me, you can contact him. He will help you with any questions you have. I've already asked him to gather some management-related information for you. With his experience over the years, he can help you avoid some detours. However, there are some lessons you must learn on your own; otherwise, you won't be able to grow."
"Got it, thank you!" She understood his point; some paths must be walked alone to learn from the experience.
Before long, the restaurant owner knocked and entered, politely looking at Mu Tongzi and her new guest. "Mu Shao, how is the congee today?"
