The sky is slightly bright, and the shopping plaza in the central business district has not yet opened, and all the shops inside are already nervously preparing for the opening of the new day.The outermost transparent gate has not yet been opened, but a large number of people have gathered unlike before.
In terms of dress, there are ordinary residents of the empire, as well as media reporters holding photographic equipment and setting the scene.They are all staring at the gate curiously, watching the machine security guards laying out the red carpet in an orderly manner, placing display cabinets on both sides of the aisle, opening the transparent isolation cover, and protecting the plates of snacks in different colors and shapes .
Under the transparent light, the transparent protective cover reflects the warm light, making the snacks inside look more delicious.
"That's Taoqianzhai's pastry, right? Wow, it's much, much more than the God of Cookery Festival!"
"Why don't you open the door? Didn't Jiang Jiang say in yesterday's live broadcast that it will be open to the public in the morning?"
"The red carpet is very retro!"
The onlookers stood at the door and stamped their feet, looking at the busy robot inside, they could only rub their hands and wait anxiously.And the media reporters with the equipment set up on the side saw that there was nothing to interview without the door opener, so they got together and started exchanging information.
"Brother, what is the origin of this Taoqianzhai?" A young reporter surrounded the crowd and asked curiously, tilting his head.
"Delicious life?" The old reporter glanced at the job card hanging on the young man. "Why did you send an intern reporter here? It's no wonder that Tao Qianzhai's owner is the one who won the championship at the God of Cookery Festival."
"It's that Jiang Ruan? I heard it's very powerful." The young man suddenly realized and opened his eyes wide.
"Isn't it?" The old reporter pointed to the window of the store upstairs, and compared with three fingers. "The shopping mall in this area, with such a large floor, cannot win without this number."
"3000 million?" The young man pondered for a while, and it was indeed a lot of money.
"What the hell is this? Another 3000 million?" The old reporter sneered, "3000 million may not even be able to pay the rent! There must be some kind of connection from the top. This position has been held for several years. If you don’t sell it, you can get it so quickly with only [-] million in cash, which is considered polite.”
"Three hundred million..." The little reporter opened his mouth exaggeratedly. "These [-] million can buy a resident star?"
"Where do you think this is? This is Capital Star!" The old reporter waved his hand impatiently. "It's still in the top five districts, and the next door is the residence of the royal family and dignitaries. This location can't be bought with money!"
"That's it..." The young man nodded suddenly. "Then, that Jiang Ruan, who has such a big background? Tell me about it."
"Say what?" The old reporter curled his lips. "This Jiang Ruan, I met once or twice when I was in charge of the interview for the God of Cookery Festival. It is true that there is nothing to say about the character, not to mention the idiot Rong family, Jiang Xiaoshi's temperament is cleaner than most families in the culinary circle. "
The young man didn't quite understand.
"You don't understand, but the master who brought me mentioned it at that time. Many years ago, how could a culinary family be as glamorous as it looks now? Didn't they all hide and use unscrupulous methods? The Association and the God of Cookery Festival were brought under control, so it was like a change of blood..." The old reporter stood up and watched the crowd start to commotion, obviously he had no intention of talking to the young reporter.
"Hey, then you take me with you. I want to go in for an interview too..." The little reporter hastily called the photographer who was following him.
"Our Capital News has made an appointment for an interview in advance. You? Let's see the timing..." The old reporter didn't care so much, he kindly reminded him, and left with a team of three or five people, following the flow of people to the door go.
When it was time to officially open the door, there was a commotion outside the building. The crowd poured in along the gradually opened door, quickly occupying the wide space of the hall, and finding a way to go upstairs.
The shopping plaza is a hollow configuration, and all the shops on the first floor are open. Before the real receptionist has time to show a polite smile, they watch the customers either gather together to watch the delicately shaped pastries curiously, or disperse. Find the tools to go upstairs.
"Is this Taoqianzhai so popular? When Xiangjia's shop opened, it wasn't so exaggerated, right?" A female receptionist in a shop raised her head on tiptoe, and the crowded crowd didn't show any signs of staying in their shop.
"I don't even think about who the owner is. I guess we will have to thank them for opening a store here today." The female store manager stood beside the receptionist and sighed.
"The store manager? Why do you say that?" The receptionist turned around.
"Look at the flow of people yourself. You may not know who will take advantage of whom in the future." The female store manager curled her lips. "However, Master Jiang's craftsmanship is really good. Didn't I ask for leave a while ago, and I followed my husband and my daughter to visit the God of Cookery Festival. The most impressive thing is their dishes."
"Really, that's great... We are just part-timers, and we don't have enough money to eat a meal." The receptionist smiled longingly, feeling a burst of envy.
The price of handmade food is very high. As a high-income store manager, it should be a good enjoyment to be able to eat a handful during the God of Cookery Festival.
"Speaking of prices, many of the food at Master Jiang's are cheaper than other restaurants. The portions are not small, and the prices are quite fair." The store manager folded his arms. "This store will be upstairs in the future, and there are many opportunities. However, on the first day of opening, I don't know if there will be any discounts. Or during the lunch break, I will take a few of you up. I treat it as a work bonus .”
"Really?" The shop assistants scattered around sorting out the goods were all paying attention to the conversation between the store manager and the receptionist, and when they heard what the immediate boss said, they all looked up excitedly.
"Sis, when did I lie to you?" The store manager laughed. "It's estimated that the upstairs will soon be full of water, and now I can't get anything good. Take it easy, work hard in the morning, and you will be indispensable at noon!"
The clerk cheered and cheered, and the appearance of going to work immediately became high.
Upstairs, Jiang Ruan stood inside the gate, looking down through the transparent fence of the aisle.Seeing that the crowd was going up, he frowned and beckoned the waiter to come over.
"Boss, what's the matter?" The waiter was checking the display of the central showcase in the Taoqianzhai lobby.Hearing Jiang Ruan's voice, she put down the things in her hands and trotted over.
"Just keep an eye on this side. If the crowd is coming up, hurry up and call me. I'll go to the bakery first." Jiang Ruan patted the waiter on the shoulder and walked into the door without stopping.
Taoqianzhai has bright windows and clean windows, and occupies an unusually spacious area. It has a space several times larger than other shops. Jiang Ruan has divided it into several areas and filled them with different styles of decoration accessories.
The innermost one is the staff lounge and the management office, and the outside is the translucent bakery and decoration display room. Jiawen, Ryan and several cooks who have worked with the God of Cookery Festival are standing together, and they are baking the baked goods in advance. Dessert take out.
The leisure area has a few low stools with unique shapes, and printed operating instructions and disinfection instruments are placed on each table.The first dim sum buffet area in the entire empire is waiting for a vacancy.
The rows of transparent low-slung self-collection cabinets occupy the largest area, the clean and transparent partition boards and the surrounding warm-colored light make the customer experience the best.The tray with wooden horizontal strips is covered with translucent oil-absorbing paper, and there are fluffy cakes and breads on the top, which can be eaten in the leisure area or taken away by the waiter.
The gift area with the most eye-catching decoration and the highest price is directly connected to the transparent and fully enclosed manual operation table, where the chef can complete all the cakes customized by customers, and complete the exquisite packaging, so that the pastries eaten in the restaurant become Sophisticated gifting at your fingertips.
"Jiang Jiang! The number of pastries here has reached the standard. Are people coming up? Some pastries must be eaten while they are hot." Ryan was sent by Jiawen envoy to find Jiang Ruan.
"The person is here, downstairs. It will take up to 5 minutes. I will go to the inner office and call Ze Xi. Get ready and check whether the electronic publicity display board at the door is working. Follow me to the door later. Cut the ribbon." Jiang Ruan nodded hastily.
"Understood." Ryan nodded, watching Jiang Ruan turn around and dodge into the back, and he turned around to call Jiawen out.
"Ze Xi? Ze Xi! It's coming out! The ceremony is about to begin, and the media customers are here!" Jiang Ruan knocked on the door symbolically, and pushed open the concealed office door.
"Well, okay...then you all come down from the top floor, bring the guards with you, and let my brother protect you..." Mu Zexi was on the phone, when he saw Jiang Ruan coming in, he nodded his head, and hung up the communication after saying a few words .
"What?" Jiang Ruan blinked.Mu Zexi has been in charge of the invitation of big clients and big guests.The guests who need to come down from the top floor will not be...
"My parents have arrived and are about to land on the top floor. My brother and Li Hui also came together. My brother is a representative of the military department, and Li Hui is a representative of the association. Brother Xiang's family is also on the way and brought you a gift." Mu Zexi rubbed his forehead, got up and hugged his lover in front of him. "Let's go, get ready to go to the main entrance."
"What kind of gift? Isn't it enough when the person arrives?" Jiang Ruan blinked. "Didn't you say hello a long time ago? Don't bring anything, we still have to give them something to eat..."
"Reciprocity is a matter of courtesy, just keep it." Mu Zexi seemed at ease, rubbing Jiang Ruan's slightly stiff shoulders. "Relax, there will be many times in the future for such a small thing as opening a business."
"Many times? Chain?" Jiang Ruan laughed, and the tension in her heart suddenly lost her strength.
"Otherwise? The chief only opens one store, and he will be beaten by customers who can't satisfy their desire to buy." Mu Zexi chuckled and pushed Jiang Ruan out. "The commotion outside? Has it arrived?"
"Yes, yes, they are all customers. Let's go, let's hurry up." Jiang Ruan hurriedly nodded after the ambiguous warmth was washed away, dragged Mu Zexi along the corridor, turned a few corners and came to the lobby .
Outside the spacious store gate, many customers and reporters with equipment have already surrounded.The Capital News reporter also stood in the crowd, watched Jiang Ruan come out, smiled and waved.
Jiang Ruan obviously knew the reporter who always came to the store to eat during the God of Cookery Festival, and greeted him with a smile.The cook with long and handsome legs pursed his lips and smiled, attracting a round of customers from outside.
"Jiang Jiang! I am a fan of the live broadcast room!"
"Me, me, me! I'm a customer of the God of Cookery Festival!"
"And me! I'm the user who grabs a spot every time I live broadcast!"
"Jiang Jiang, I like you so much! I like you more than celebrities!"
The surrounding customers hadn't gotten impatient yet, and they all laughed kindly when they heard such remarks.Jiang Ruan let out a low cough, apparently holding back a smile, and subconsciously leaned towards Mu Zexi.Just as he was about to speak, he heard exclamations from the crowd.
It turned out that the royal couple brought Mu Jiuqiang and Li Hui to the shop under the protection of a group of plainclothes bodyguards.When the crowd subconsciously gave way to a set of passages, they smiled and walked towards Jiang Ruan.
"Thank you for your support. It is a great honor to be able to successfully open here today. Taoqianzhai has a lot of new dim sum styles today, and it is also equipped with alcohol for this opening. All drinks for dine-in are free, and all pastries are half price , Thank you for your support. I am also very grateful to Your Majesty, Your Highness the Queen, the military department that cooperated with me, and the association that has always helped me!"
Jiang Ruan welcomed the distinguished guests in and stood with the main cooks in the shop.Bowing slightly, let the waiter bring a ribbon, which lay across the center. "Then it's time to cut the ribbon. I'm a food chef, so I can't say a lot of beautiful words. I hope everyone can have a good meal today, um..."
While Jiang Ruan was still contemplating what to say next, the royal couple had already taken the lead and started applauding.The ribbon-cutting went smoothly. Everyone carried the ribbons and lowered the scissors one after another, completing the ancient celebration tradition.
When the waiters and guards protected the royal family aside, Jiang Ruan and Mu Zexi greeted all the customers in person at the door.Men, women, young and old, many people were very curious about the new store, and wanted to shake hands and hug Jiang Ruan, but Mu Zexi politely turned them away.
The media reporters were first put in the lobby so that the cameramen could take pictures.When the customers lined up to enter, the empty shop was buzzing with people.The sweet-scented osmanthus cake, rose shortbread and other delicate snacks that had been shown in the live broadcast were all picked up by enthusiastic customers, waiting for the waiter to seal the bag and arrange the seat after recording the order.
Many pastries that have never been seen before, such as green tea cakes and pine nut cakes, were snapped up by customers one by one due to their exquisite appearance and unique smell.In a short while, many of the pastries in the display cabinets were sold out, leaving subsequent customers to wait helplessly for the bakery to make them.
At the beginning, everyone's eyes were still on the central self-selection area, and slowly the gift area was followed by customers.
The antique-style packaging is layered on top of each other, and in the translucent window, a variety of pastries are carefully placed, which greatly satisfies the customer's pursuit of beauty.
Although the pastries in gift boxes are expensive, enthusiastic customers still choose to buy them without hesitation.Later, the customers who didn’t grab the gift box were still complaining to the waiter, and asked happily when the new one would be available.
The guests who had already been seated got the sweet fruit tea, sweet red wine, and strong coffee hot chocolate served by the waiter.Paired with slap cakes that are moderately sweet and salty, soft and hard, sitting in the rest area and taking pictures to commemorate, but also reluctant to eat.
The new opening ushered in good sales results, Jiang Ruan saw that the guests were very receptive to the dim sum, so she let go of her worries and took Mu Zexi's hand to the concierge gathering place.
"Jiang Jiang! It's great!" Xiang Bai appeared out of nowhere, holding a huge package and stuffing it into Jiang Ruan's arms. "I heard that you are going to get married? This gift will be unwrapped when you go back, and you will unwrap it when you go back..."
"What?" Jiang Ruan frowned, and suddenly felt a smirk in Xiang Bai's eyes.
"It's nothing, it's nothing... let the waiters take it down first?" Xiang Bai said haha, forcefully ignoring the thoughtful look of Mu Zeyi behind Jiang Ruan.
"Where's your brother?" Jiang Ruan glanced around.
"I'm getting food, I'll go find him right away. I said I want to get brown sugar mochi, I'm afraid I'll run out of hands by then..." Xiang Bai laughed, waved his hands and walked away.
"This? Just reconcile?" Jiang Ruan curled her lips and turned her head to look at Mu Zexi.
Mu Zexi shrugged back, expressing that he was completely ignorant of the love-hate entanglement and twists and turns between the two brothers of the Xiang family.
"Jiang Jiang, do you have time? Come on?" Amidst the hustle and bustle of people, a gentle and quiet female voice sounded.
"Hello." Jiang Ruan looked over and greeted with a polite smile.With his eyes, he signaled the waiter to bring the special gifts for entertaining the guests, and dragging Mu Zexi's hand, they walked over together.
"The shop is really good, very good." Zhang Yan smiled calmly, standing behind Mu Jiang, holding her husband's arm.Take out a small square box from the small bag you carry with you. "This is a small gift to congratulate you on your opening, please keep it."
"This..." Jiang Ruan didn't know whether to answer it, subconsciously turned her head to ask Mu Zexi's opinion.Mu Zexi nodded, took Jiang Ruan's hand and took it.
"Go back and tear it down again, we will be a family from now on." His expression was not as serious as before, and Mu Jiang's tone was rarely softened.Lowering the volume, the words seemed kind and kind.
"Thank you." Jiang Ruan nodded, took the gift box from the waiter, and handed it up with Mu Zexi. "Please forgive me, the opening of the new store, this is a return gift specially prepared for the two of you."
"This child, you're still so polite..." Zhang Yan smiled, and covered her mouth to let her husband take it. "Good boy, have a good time with Ze Xi. When we go home, let's have a meal together, discuss everything we need to discuss, and settle down to live."
If she hadn't participated in the opening ceremony with her public identity, she would have ordered someone to snap up it once.She kept a lot of delicate snacks in her eyes and kept them in her heart.This huge box is probably filled with snacks, just as she wanted.
"Hmm... yes." Jiang Ruan nodded, vaguely understanding the meaning of the queen's words.The smile on the corner of her mouth couldn't be suppressed, and a little red floated to her ears.
"Mom and Dad, we still have something to do here, let's go first." Mu Zexi's expression was flat, but the alienation in his eyes was much less.The conversation between the two sides ended briefly.
"Yes, there are still media waiting over there, so let's go there first?" Jiang Ruan saw that the royal couple were very polite to him, so she boldly got acquainted.
"Go, go, we have just finished their interview, I guess they still have a lot of questions waiting for you." Zhang Yan smiled and waved her hand to signal them to go quickly. "Jiu Qiang and we are going to leave too, and later we will make an appointment with the dignitaries to discuss matters... Next time we go home for dinner, remember?"
Jiang Ruan, who had already walked away, did not hear the scattered words floating in the air because of the noisy voices.Mu Zexi, who was walking behind, glanced back, nodded indiscernibly, and then quickly followed in the footsteps of his lover in front, walking towards the place where the light gathered.
Standing not far away, Li Hui looked back at Mu Jiuqiang who was leaning against the wall, who was bored.
"How is it? After meeting Jiang Ruan, Ze Xi is a bit different." Li Hui smiled, and leaned against the wall with Mu Jiuqiang.
Mu Jiuqiang didn't speak, but hummed noncommittally.His eyes scanned the excitement around him, and then he looked at the tall figure who had been protecting Jiang Ruan all the time, the corners of his mouth became much less cold and hard.
"Don't have the same personality as your father, just say what you have to say." Li Hui couldn't help but started talking. "After Jiang Jiang came, Ze Xi's temper obviously improved a lot. The hostility towards you has also decreased a lot. There is no way around the misunderstanding at that time. Find an opportunity to explain."
"Understood." Mu Jiuqiang said a few words, got up and picked up the self-service tray on the side. "What do you want to eat? I'll get it for you."
"Let's go, come and go, it's a pity if you don't buy it." Li Hui patted his lover's broad back and pushed him into the crowd. "I have eaten a few of them before. Let me tell you, you can grab the height advantage."
"En." Mu Jiuqiang hummed honestly, and went to buy some snacks for Li Hui without complaint.
On the other side, the media reporters who had been waiting for a long time in the rest area were happily eating the peanut brittle candies brought by the waiter, and they waited for Mrs. Jiang Ruan, who finally had time.
In terms of dress, there are ordinary residents of the empire, as well as media reporters holding photographic equipment and setting the scene.They are all staring at the gate curiously, watching the machine security guards laying out the red carpet in an orderly manner, placing display cabinets on both sides of the aisle, opening the transparent isolation cover, and protecting the plates of snacks in different colors and shapes .
Under the transparent light, the transparent protective cover reflects the warm light, making the snacks inside look more delicious.
"That's Taoqianzhai's pastry, right? Wow, it's much, much more than the God of Cookery Festival!"

"It's that Jiang Ruan? I heard it's very powerful." The young man suddenly realized and opened his eyes wide.
"Isn't it?" The old reporter pointed to the window of the store upstairs, and compared with three fingers. "The shopping mall in this area, with such a large floor, cannot win without this number."
"3000 million?" The young man pondered for a while, and it was indeed a lot of money.
"What the hell is this? Another 3000 million?" The old reporter sneered, "3000 million may not even be able to pay the rent! There must be some kind of connection from the top. This position has been held for several years. If you don’t sell it, you can get it so quickly with only [-] million in cash, which is considered polite.”
"Three hundred million..." The little reporter opened his mouth exaggeratedly. "These [-] million can buy a resident star?"
"Where do you think this is? This is Capital Star!" The old reporter waved his hand impatiently. "It's still in the top five districts, and the next door is the residence of the royal family and dignitaries. This location can't be bought with money!"

The clerk cheered and cheered, and the appearance of going to work immediately became high.
Upstairs, Jiang Ruan stood inside the gate, looking down through the transparent fence of the aisle.Seeing that the crowd was going up, he frowned and beckoned the waiter to come over.
"Boss, what's the matter?" The waiter was checking the display of the central showcase in the Taoqianzhai lobby.Hearing Jiang Ruan's voice, she put down the things in her hands and trotted over.
"Just keep an eye on this side. If the crowd is coming up, hurry up and call me. I'll go to the bakery first." Jiang Ruan patted the waiter on the shoulder and walked into the door without stopping.
Taoqianzhai has bright windows and clean windows, and occupies an unusually spacious area. It has a space several times larger than other shops. Jiang Ruan has divided it into several areas and filled them with different styles of decoration accessories.
The innermost one is the staff lounge and the management office, and the outside is the translucent bakery and decoration display room. Jiawen, Ryan and several cooks who have worked with the God of Cookery Festival are standing together, and they are baking the baked goods in advance. Dessert take out.
The leisure area has a few low stools with unique shapes, and printed operating instructions and disinfection instruments are placed on each table.The first dim sum buffet area in the entire empire is waiting for a vacancy.
The rows of transparent low-slung self-collection cabinets occupy the largest area, the clean and transparent partition boards and the surrounding warm-colored light make the customer experience the best.The tray with wooden horizontal strips is covered with translucent oil-absorbing paper, and there are fluffy cakes and breads on the top, which can be eaten in the leisure area or taken away by the waiter.

"Ze Xi? Ze Xi! It's coming out! The ceremony is about to begin, and the media customers are here!" Jiang Ruan knocked on the door symbolically, and pushed open the concealed office door.
"Well, okay...then you all come down from the top floor, bring the guards with you, and let my brother protect you..." Mu Zexi was on the phone, when he saw Jiang Ruan coming in, he nodded his head, and hung up the communication after saying a few words .
"What?" Jiang Ruan blinked.Mu Zexi has been in charge of the invitation of big clients and big guests.The guests who need to come down from the top floor will not be...
"My parents have arrived and are about to land on the top floor. My brother and Li Hui also came together. My brother is a representative of the military department, and Li Hui is a representative of the association. Brother Xiang's family is also on the way and brought you a gift." Mu Zexi rubbed his forehead, got up and hugged his lover in front of him. "Let's go, get ready to go to the main entrance."
"What kind of gift? Isn't it enough when the person arrives?" Jiang Ruan blinked. "Didn't you say hello a long time ago? Don't bring anything, we still have to give them something to eat..."
"Reciprocity is a matter of courtesy, just keep it." Mu Zexi seemed at ease, rubbing Jiang Ruan's slightly stiff shoulders. "Relax, there will be many times in the future for such a small thing as opening a business."

"Otherwise? The chief only opens one store, and he will be beaten by customers who can't satisfy their desire to buy." Mu Zexi chuckled and pushed Jiang Ruan out. "The commotion outside? Has it arrived?"
"Yes, yes, they are all customers. Let's go, let's hurry up." Jiang Ruan hurriedly nodded after the ambiguous warmth was washed away, dragged Mu Zexi along the corridor, turned a few corners and came to the lobby .
Outside the spacious store gate, many customers and reporters with equipment have already surrounded.The Capital News reporter also stood in the crowd, watched Jiang Ruan come out, smiled and waved.
Jiang Ruan obviously knew the reporter who always came to the store to eat during the God of Cookery Festival, and greeted him with a smile.The cook with long and handsome legs pursed his lips and smiled, attracting a round of customers from outside.

The surrounding customers hadn't gotten impatient yet, and they all laughed kindly when they heard such remarks.Jiang Ruan let out a low cough, apparently holding back a smile, and subconsciously leaned towards Mu Zexi.Just as he was about to speak, he heard exclamations from the crowd.
It turned out that the royal couple brought Mu Jiuqiang and Li Hui to the shop under the protection of a group of plainclothes bodyguards.When the crowd subconsciously gave way to a set of passages, they smiled and walked towards Jiang Ruan.

When the waiters and guards protected the royal family aside, Jiang Ruan and Mu Zexi greeted all the customers in person at the door.Men, women, young and old, many people were very curious about the new store, and wanted to shake hands and hug Jiang Ruan, but Mu Zexi politely turned them away.
The media reporters were first put in the lobby so that the cameramen could take pictures.When the customers lined up to enter, the empty shop was buzzing with people.The sweet-scented osmanthus cake, rose shortbread and other delicate snacks that had been shown in the live broadcast were all picked up by enthusiastic customers, waiting for the waiter to seal the bag and arrange the seat after recording the order.
Many pastries that have never been seen before, such as green tea cakes and pine nut cakes, were snapped up by customers one by one due to their exquisite appearance and unique smell.In a short while, many of the pastries in the display cabinets were sold out, leaving subsequent customers to wait helplessly for the bakery to make them.
At the beginning, everyone's eyes were still on the central self-selection area, and slowly the gift area was followed by customers.
The antique-style packaging is layered on top of each other, and in the translucent window, a variety of pastries are carefully placed, which greatly satisfies the customer's pursuit of beauty.
Although the pastries in gift boxes are expensive, enthusiastic customers still choose to buy them without hesitation.Later, the customers who didn’t grab the gift box were still complaining to the waiter, and asked happily when the new one would be available.
The guests who had already been seated got the sweet fruit tea, sweet red wine, and strong coffee hot chocolate served by the waiter.Paired with slap cakes that are moderately sweet and salty, soft and hard, sitting in the rest area and taking pictures to commemorate, but also reluctant to eat.
The new opening ushered in good sales results, Jiang Ruan saw that the guests were very receptive to the dim sum, so she let go of her worries and took Mu Zexi's hand to the concierge gathering place.
"Jiang Jiang! It's great!" Xiang Bai appeared out of nowhere, holding a huge package and stuffing it into Jiang Ruan's arms. "I heard that you are going to get married? This gift will be unwrapped when you go back, and you will unwrap it when you go back..."
"What?" Jiang Ruan frowned, and suddenly felt a smirk in Xiang Bai's eyes.
"It's nothing, it's nothing... let the waiters take it down first?" Xiang Bai said haha, forcefully ignoring the thoughtful look of Mu Zeyi behind Jiang Ruan.
"Where's your brother?" Jiang Ruan glanced around.
"I'm getting food, I'll go find him right away. I said I want to get brown sugar mochi, I'm afraid I'll run out of hands by then..." Xiang Bai laughed, waved his hands and walked away.
"This? Just reconcile?" Jiang Ruan curled her lips and turned her head to look at Mu Zexi.
Mu Zexi shrugged back, expressing that he was completely ignorant of the love-hate entanglement and twists and turns between the two brothers of the Xiang family.
"Jiang Jiang, do you have time? Come on?" Amidst the hustle and bustle of people, a gentle and quiet female voice sounded.
"Hello." Jiang Ruan looked over and greeted with a polite smile.With his eyes, he signaled the waiter to bring the special gifts for entertaining the guests, and dragging Mu Zexi's hand, they walked over together.
"The shop is really good, very good." Zhang Yan smiled calmly, standing behind Mu Jiang, holding her husband's arm.Take out a small square box from the small bag you carry with you. "This is a small gift to congratulate you on your opening, please keep it."
"This..." Jiang Ruan didn't know whether to answer it, subconsciously turned her head to ask Mu Zexi's opinion.Mu Zexi nodded, took Jiang Ruan's hand and took it.
"Go back and tear it down again, we will be a family from now on." His expression was not as serious as before, and Mu Jiang's tone was rarely softened.Lowering the volume, the words seemed kind and kind.
"Thank you." Jiang Ruan nodded, took the gift box from the waiter, and handed it up with Mu Zexi. "Please forgive me, the opening of the new store, this is a return gift specially prepared for the two of you."
"This child, you're still so polite..." Zhang Yan smiled, and covered her mouth to let her husband take it. "Good boy, have a good time with Ze Xi. When we go home, let's have a meal together, discuss everything we need to discuss, and settle down to live."
If she hadn't participated in the opening ceremony with her public identity, she would have ordered someone to snap up it once.She kept a lot of delicate snacks in her eyes and kept them in her heart.This huge box is probably filled with snacks, just as she wanted.
"Hmm... yes." Jiang Ruan nodded, vaguely understanding the meaning of the queen's words.The smile on the corner of her mouth couldn't be suppressed, and a little red floated to her ears.
"Mom and Dad, we still have something to do here, let's go first." Mu Zexi's expression was flat, but the alienation in his eyes was much less.The conversation between the two sides ended briefly.
"Yes, there are still media waiting over there, so let's go there first?" Jiang Ruan saw that the royal couple were very polite to him, so she boldly got acquainted.
"Go, go, we have just finished their interview, I guess they still have a lot of questions waiting for you." Zhang Yan smiled and waved her hand to signal them to go quickly. "Jiu Qiang and we are going to leave too, and later we will make an appointment with the dignitaries to discuss matters... Next time we go home for dinner, remember?"
Jiang Ruan, who had already walked away, did not hear the scattered words floating in the air because of the noisy voices.Mu Zexi, who was walking behind, glanced back, nodded indiscernibly, and then quickly followed in the footsteps of his lover in front, walking towards the place where the light gathered.
Standing not far away, Li Hui looked back at Mu Jiuqiang who was leaning against the wall, who was bored.
"How is it? After meeting Jiang Ruan, Ze Xi is a bit different." Li Hui smiled, and leaned against the wall with Mu Jiuqiang.
Mu Jiuqiang didn't speak, but hummed noncommittally.His eyes scanned the excitement around him, and then he looked at the tall figure who had been protecting Jiang Ruan all the time, the corners of his mouth became much less cold and hard.
"Don't have the same personality as your father, just say what you have to say." Li Hui couldn't help but started talking. "After Jiang Jiang came, Ze Xi's temper obviously improved a lot. The hostility towards you has also decreased a lot. There is no way around the misunderstanding at that time. Find an opportunity to explain."
"Understood." Mu Jiuqiang said a few words, got up and picked up the self-service tray on the side. "What do you want to eat? I'll get it for you."
"Let's go, come and go, it's a pity if you don't buy it." Li Hui patted his lover's broad back and pushed him into the crowd. "I have eaten a few of them before. Let me tell you, you can grab the height advantage."
"En." Mu Jiuqiang hummed honestly, and went to buy some snacks for Li Hui without complaint.
On the other side, the media reporters who had been waiting for a long time in the rest area were happily eating the peanut brittle candies brought by the waiter, and they waited for Mrs. Jiang Ruan, who finally had time.
