Chapter 533: I’ve Been Waiting for You for a Long Time
The next morning, around ten, Jiang Ran rode her bike out the door.
She had arranged to meet Wu Qian at 11:30 for lunch.
However, the restaurant they were meeting at was quite a distance away from here.
It wasn’t convenient by bus, nor was there a direct route, so Jiang Ran had no choice but to cycle there.
Luckily, the weather was decent and didn’t rain, or else the journey would have been difficult.
At times like these, Jiang Ran really felt having a car would be great.
It’s just a shame that cars are so expensive now, not very attractive, and lack features.
Whenever she thought of this, her desire to buy a car wasn’t that strong.
Thinking about all this along the way, the journey didn’t seem that long.
Before she realized it, Jiang Ran was already at the entrance of the restaurant.
Even before arriving, just hearing the name, she knew the restaurant was exceptional.
It wasn’t until she got to the door that she realized just how exceptional it was.
In this era, a splendidly decorated restaurant like this was truly rare.
In an era where cars weren’t common, there were surprisingly many parked at the entrance.
At the entrance of the restaurant stood two men in suits.
As Jiang Ran parked her bicycle, the two men looked over.
Being watched by them, Jiang Ran didn’t feel even a little embarrassed.
Although she came by bicycle, there wasn’t any rule stating bicycles weren’t allowed here.
Jiang Ran locked her bike and strolled over leisurely.
The two men just watched Jiang Ran and made no attempt to stop her.
Seeing this, Jiang Ran’s impression of them improved quite a bit.
It seemed this wasn’t a restaurant that judged people by their appearance.
After walking through the entrance, it was all a grand lobby.
Before Jiang Ran could say she was here to meet someone, she heard someone calling her.
Following the voice, she saw Wu Qian.
It was evident that Wu Qian had been waiting here for some time; upon seeing Jiang Ran, she smiled and came over to greet her.
"I’ve been waiting for you for a while, let’s head up quickly."
Jiang Ran nodded and walked inside with Wu Qian.
The two of them went upstairs via the stairs, reached the second floor, turned down a long corridor, and entered a private room at the very end.
There were two people sitting in the private room at that moment, one of whom resembled Wu Qian a bit, presumably her father.
The other was dressed in a suit and looked like he wasn’t an ordinary person; she just didn’t know what his actual identity was.
While Jiang Ran was still pondering, Wu Qian began to introduce them.
"Jiang Ran, let me introduce you. This is my father, Wu Guanzhong, and this is our company’s manager, Xu Youcai."
After introducing the two, Wu Qian turned around to Jiang Ran and said, "Dad, Uncle Xu, this is Jiang Ran, the one I’ve told you about."
Jiang Ran took a step forward, nodded slightly at the two with a smile, and said, "Hello, I’m Jiang Ran."
The duo, hearing this, nodded back at Jiang Ran, "We’ve heard a lot about you from little Qian. Come on, don’t just stand there, let’s sit down and talk."
After everyone sat down, Wu Guanzhong started with some formal small talk.
Things like how old she was, where she lived, who was in her family, and when she came to beishi, etc.
For what she could say, Jiang Ran answered with a smile.
For what she didn’t want to share, she directly changed the subject.
Feeling it was about time, Jiang Ran started to talk business directly.
