"Hmm." Zhou Sisi nodded, "At a small private party, I didn't expect her to be there. ”

"Did she embarrass you?" Li Ning asked.

Before Li Ning was at the cocktail party, he embarrassed Fang Minghong in public. Zhou Sisi and Shan Wenyi also sat on the side that day, and Fang Minghong naturally understood that Zhou Sisi was from Lining.

"Nope. On the contrary, she deliberately approached me, very kind, as if she didn't remember what we had done at the drinking party that day to embarrass her in public. Zhou Sisi shook his head and said.

If she had said that Fang Minghong was friendly earlier, Li Ning might still believe it, but after experiencing the kidnapping incident, she completely understood.

Fang Minghong's goodwill is purposeful.

Someone can be used by her, and when it is profitable in that person, she immediately shows her kind side.

At the beginning, Fang Minghong knew that Li Ning, as a person in a big house, did not agree with her son Shen Jinheng's second room, but she was still close to Li Ning in every way, and often found various excuses to meet and chat with Li Ning to get closer.

She was originally trying to win over Li Ning and Shen Muzhi behind her and help her deal with Shen Xunling.

The kidnapping was designed as an excuse to find Li Ning, and he talked to Li Ning like a heart-to-heart, and then cooperated with the kidnappers to lead Li Ning into a trap.

In the end, the matter was revealed, but he still refused to admit his mistakes, and then parted ways with Li Ning.

"At the beginning, she was also very close to me, and now she is targeting you, but I don't know if she wants to use you to deal with the Shen family, or use you to deal with me."

At the moment, Li Ning and Zhou Sisi both know that the latter is more likely.

"At that time, she asked for my contact information, and I was embarrassed not to give it to her in front of everyone. After that, the next day, they asked me to have tea, but I didn't go because I had something to do. ”

Zhou Sisi told Li Ning about her and Fang Minghong.

In case one day Li Ning hears these things from elsewhere, there may be some misunderstandings.

Li Ning smiled faintly when she heard this, "If she can't make an appointment with you once, she will always think of other ways." She is unusually persistent in these things. ”

When Li Ning was reluctant to see her at the beginning, Fang Minghong either did a physical examination or found some reasons for Li Ning to refuse in the name of seeing a doctor.

Zhou Sisi frowned, "But I don't have anything to say to her, I won't help her mess with the Shen family's affairs, let alone help her deal with you, Sister Ning." ”

"You and I know what our relationship is, but she doesn't necessarily know, but she and I have torn our faces, it's better to win you over to deal with me, even if I can't, let me know that she doesn't care, anyway, the enmity between us is a dead knot that is impossible to unravel."

Saying this, Li Ning paused slightly, patted Li Ning's hand again, and said gently: "Actually, you don't have to tell me these things in detail. The relationship between you and me is unknown to others, but you and I know it. I will neither misunderstand you nor doubt you. ”

Zhou Sisi saw that his mind was broken by Li Ning, and lowered his eyes a little embarrassed.

"Okay, don't think about it. It is impossible for one Fang Minghong to affect the relationship between you and me, and it is not worth your trouble. ”

With Li Ning's words, Zhou Sisi felt a lot relieved.

"I understand, Sister Ning." Zhou Sisi smiled.

The two chatted a few more words, and Sophia walked out of the back kitchen, followed by Manager Zhang and two people wearing the costumes of the chef and the second chef.

"How's it going, are you still satisfied?" Li Ning saw Sophia and asked with a smile.

"Not bad." Sophia shrugged and sat down next to Li Ning.

Manager Zhang said with a smile: "Miss Sophia gave us guidance very seriously, so that we realized our shortcomings, and we will definitely pay attention to the problems and correct them in the future." ”

"Listen to this, you don't find fault with others." Li Ning said, and couldn't help but smile at Zhou Sisi.

"Miss Sophia has given valuable advice and advice, which are valuable experience accumulated in practice over the years, and we are grateful to Miss Sophia for her generous advice." Manager Zhang picked out the good things and said that he praised Sophia and avoided embarrassment.

"Because it's Sisi's shop, I seriously put forward my opinion, and if I change it somewhere else, I don't bother to say it."

Sophia was praised and raised her chin to Li Ning quite proudly.

Li Ning couldn't help but smile, "Yes, yes, it's me who used the wrong words, you are making opinions and not finding faults." ”

After a few laughs, Li Ning and the three of them began to try the dishes.

Sophia is a professional chef, and her strength is needless to say.

Zhou Sisi's catering family has her own consideration requirements.

Although Li Ning is neither a cook nor has anything to do with catering, he can be a high-demand picky eater in any high-end restaurant he eats.

Therefore, when Li Ning and the three tried the dishes, Manager Zhang and the two chefs were nervous.

"Not bad." Li Ning was the first to give an evaluation.

"Well, it's not bad. But this steak still needs to pay attention to the heat, I want seven ripe, but this one is already eight ripe. "Sophia, as a professional chef, is already very good at giving such an evaluation.

In addition to caring about the color and aroma of the food, Zhou Sisi also pays more attention to the plating service, dining comfort and other aspects.

Manager Zhang was very serious and recorded all the suggestions of the three in a notebook.

"Mr. Zhou, rest assured, we will immediately rectify the problems raised by the three of you, and prevent similar or similar problems from occurring in the future, which will inevitably be ......"

Li Ning was a little bored listening to the manager's official tone of reciting lines, and casually glanced outside. suddenly saw a somewhat familiar figure.

"What's wrong, Sister Ning." While Zhou Sisi asked, he also followed Li Ning's gaze and looked out.

There was a middle-aged man standing outside the door, wearing a polo shirt and slacks, and his body was slightly fat, looking no different from an ordinary middle-aged man on the street.

"Sister Ning?"

"Huh?" Li Ning came back to his senses.

"You know him?" Zhou Sisi glanced at the man and asked.

Li Ning frowned slightly, "You should know." ”

"What is meant by knowing, is it knowing or not knowing?" Sophia also asked Li Ning curiously.

"I saw him a few times when I was a child, and my impression has faded a little, and I'm not sure if it's him." Li Ning said, still looking at the man.

The man seemed to be waiting for someone, standing in the moment and occasionally looking at his phone, occasionally looking up and twice.

"Would you like to invite him in?" Zhou Sisi asked Li Ning.

"No, I'm not friends with him." Li Ning said bluntly.

Zhou Sisi and Sophia glanced at each other, the two didn't speak again, and looked at the man with Li Ning, even the manager, although he didn't know what was going on, looked at the man for a moment like the three of them.
