My Virtual Girlfriend-Chapter 352: Qiao Qiao, The Hotel is Not a Place for Eating
Chapter 352: Chapter 352: Qiao Qiao, The Hotel is Not a Place for Eating
Just as Chen Yan had planned, Yu Qiao Qiao had just gotten out of bed at this time and was preparing something to eat in the kitchen.
Chen Yan sent her a message, "Qiao Qiao, something came up at the company, so I went ahead to the office. Don’t worry about making breakfast for me~"
"Also, save a little room in your stomach, I’ll take you out for lunch today."
After sending the message, Chen Yan turned his attention to the Virtual Girlfriend Simulator game.
In the game, the pixelated chibi version of Yu Qiao Qiao, originally wrapped in a cute floral apron and wielding a spatula, was cooking. Above her head, text read "Cooking...."
But now, with the arrival of Chen Yan’s text message.
The pixelated chibi version of Yu Qiao Qiao stopped, then pulled out a tiny, fingernail-sized pixel phone, glanced at it a few times. She began to stand still.
And above her head, text appeared saying, "Chatting on WeChat...."
Even though he had seen this real-time display many times, Chen Yan still thought the feature was freaking cool.
Soon, his phone chimed with a "Ding Dong~" sound. A WeChat message had come.
It was from Yu Qiao Qiao, "Okie dokie~ I’ll come find you at noon."
Chen Yan closed WeChat and looked once again at the game interface.
Then he saw that in the kitchen of the game, the pixelated frying pan on the gas stove was now emitting thick black smoke, and Yu Qiao Qiao’s pixelated chibi avatar was frantically trying to fix the situation.
The animations even had dynamic effects: beads of sweat flying everywhere.
Chen Yan: .....
This system was really too smart.
Hmm.... Boss Qiao Qiao was just so adorably clueless.
What could have been a disastrous collision was thus quietly resolved.
After finishing all this, Chen Yan didn’t idle, but took the opportunity of this alone time to start organizing the recent business matters.
The recording of the first few episodes of "Big Star Detective" was now complete, and according to the scheduled arrangement, it was expected to air next month.
Before that, the "Billion-Dollar Film and Television Plan" and counterattack against the Xu brothers were about to begin.
And before that, it was time to sort out the charity foundation.
The most immediate matter... should be cashing out that nearly six hundred million in cashback, and going to Hong Kong to register a financial account.
After getting his affairs in order, Chen Yan started to methodically prepare,
He first reviewed the cash withdrawal guide provided by the system, then started to move the funds around.
After transferring the funds, since the market hadn’t opened yet, he couldn’t proceed with the operations. So, he began to review the charity foundation’s charter, proposal, and Jiang Nanxing’s documents...
Sometimes, when one is lazy, it may seem like there isn’t much to do. But when busy, one finds that there are so many neglected tasks!
Originally, Chen Yan had come in early today saying there was a lot to do at the company, merely to avoid a disastrous confrontation.
But when he started to delve into work, he looked up to find it was already half-past eleven.
He had indeed been busy all morning, just like the lie he had concocted...
And upon Chen Yan lifting his head, he heard Yu Qiao Qiao’s pleasant voice, "Are you done with work, Chen Yan?"
Chen Yan looked at Yu Qiao Qiao, sitting on the sofa, in surprise and asked, "Qiao Qiao? When did you get here?"
Yu Qiao Qiao gazed at him with her big, gentle eyes and said in a soft voice, "I... I’ve been here for quite a while. And... it was you who let me in."
"Me?" Chen Yan was a bit confused.
After recalling carefully, he remembered that indeed half an hour ago, he had heard someone knock on the door, then casually said "Come in" and continued working without looking up to see who it was and what they were going to do.
And Yu Qiao Qiao, seeing him busy, had truthfully taken a seat on the sofa and waited for over half an hour without saying a word or disturbing him...
Amongst the people he knew, she was probably the only one who could be so adorably silly.
Thinking this, Chen Yan felt a bit annoyed and smacked his forehead, "It’s my fault. I got caught up in work."
Hearing Chen Yan’s words, Yu Qiao Qiao shook her head and said, "Not at all. You mentioned you were going to be busy this morning and would come to the office early, so I already knew you would be busy."
She smiled and said, "And I’m not in a hurry. If you’re busy, I can go eat with Sister Nuan Nuan too~"
Hearing Yu Qiao Qiao’s words, Chen Yan’s face flushed a little.
He hadn’t expected the lie he’d told to avoid the confrontation would actually solve his present situation...
This added a feeling of guilt in his heart.
He said, "How can that be? I said I’d treat you to lunch today, so that’s what we’ll do."
Saying that, he shut down the computer and announced, "Let’s go! We’re going for a feast!"
Every girl wishes for her boyfriend to be by her side constantly, to always be there with her. Yu Qiao Qiao was no different.
But she was far more sensible than other girls. She knew that boys might just be born to have a harder life than girls.
They have to provide for the family, carry the weight of family responsibilities, and struggle for the lives of themselves and their loved ones.
For them, it’s difficult to achieve both breadwinning and companionship.
So she had always been very understanding of Chen Yan.
Now, seeing that Chen Yan, despite his packed schedule, was still with her, she couldn’t help but be overjoyed.
Perhaps, the fact that she could "steal" away just a little bit of time from Chen Yan’s busy day was her greatest happiness....
Chen Yan had already planned today’s lunch: To dine at the Twin Towers Hotel.
After all, having spent several billion to acquire the hotel, how could he not experience and enjoy it?
More importantly, the Twin Towers Hotel was right across from the building, allowing Chen Yan to treat the place as a regular spot for dining.
With these thoughts, Chen Yan led Yu Qiao Qiao out of Fenghua Building and toward the Twin Towers Hotel.
The two buildings were essentially constructed as one, even their exterior and design were remarkably similar, standing across the street from each other.
That’s why the hotel was named Twin Towers Hotel, and these two buildings became one of the iconic landmarks of Qin Island.
Walking down the street, Chen Yan unhesitatingly reached out and grabbed Yu Qiao Qiao’s hand. At first, Yu Qiao Qiao felt it wasn’t appropriate and tried to pull away.
But after a gentle struggle failed to free her hand, she stopped trying and obediently allowed Chen Yan to hold her hand. freёweɓnovel.com
Soon, the two of them, hand in hand, arrived at the Twin Towers Hotel.
After some time of management by Chen Yan and Qin Ming, the Twin Towers Hotel was completely revamped. Even with a stronger management team, the hotel’s service attitude and decor had greatly improved.
So, seeing Chen Yan and Yu Qiao Qiao approaching, even without knowing their identities, the doorman came over to open the door immediately, then greeted them with a smile, "Welcome to the Twin Towers Hotel, sir and madam~"
Chen Yan nodded with a smile, while Yu Qiao Qiao, unaccustomed to such enthusiastic service, was a bit flustered in returning the greeting.
Once inside the hotel, Yu Qiao Qiao whispered to Chen Yan, "Chen Yan... we’re just having a simple meal, why did you bring me to such a fancy hotel?"
Chen Yan intended to reply seriously, but seeing Yu Qiao Qiao’s naive charm, a mischievous thought crossed his mind. He looked at her in feigned surprise and asked, "Who told you this hotel is for dining?"
Hearing this, Yu Qiao Qiao was taken aback with an "Ah?" and asked with wide eyes and uncertainty, "Then... what is it for?"
Chen Yan pretended to be puzzled and said, "You don’t know? Hotels are made for sleeping."
Yu Qiao Qiao’s face turned as red as a cute apple, her hands nervously not knowing where to go.
"Ah? Ah? I..."
After a pause, she lowered her head, her voice timid as she softly said, "Then... could we get something to eat first? I... I didn’t eat much in the morning. I’m, I’m a bit hungry..."
Chen Yan just watched Yu Qiao Qiao, simply watched and...
After a moment, he could not help but burst into laughter, then wrapped his arms around Yu Qiao Qiao, leaned to her ear, and chuckled, "Sure. Let’s get you something to eat first. Then we can ’go to sleep!’"
Upon hearing Chen Yan’s words, the now-familiar-with-Chen-Yan Yu Qiao Qiao immediately realized she might have misunderstood him, her face reddening even more as steam seemed to billow from her head, nearly buried in her chest....
The more Chen Yan saw her like this, the more adorable she seemed, so he hugged her and headed up to the third-floor Western restaurant.
Seeing Chen Yan pressing the elevator button for the third floor, Yu Qiao Qiao’s voice was as soft as a mosquito’s, "Are we... are we going to eat on the third floor?"
Chen Yan, seeing her cute demeanor, replied with a smile, "We’re not eating. I’m ’eating you.’"
Yu Qiao Qiao blushed even more....
Upon reaching the third floor, Chen Yan looked around and discovered that the restaurant’s occupancy rate was surprisingly high.
But he wasn’t worried, because he had his own reserved seat for the boss....
