When they got out of the car at the entrance of the restaurant, Bai Xue was the most shocked. Although the original restaurant had changed seats, the person standing at the door was the same as before.
So Gao Wen knew Xiao Zhi!
A trace of surprise flashed across the eyes of the couple running the restaurant when they saw Bai Xue. They hurriedly walked over and held her hand to size her up. Seeing that she was doing well now, they smiled in relief and said, “Xiao Xue, I didn’t expect you and Miss Gao to be classmates! 1 heard that school is not bad. I’m satisfied to see that you can continue studying.”
Bai Xue’s eyes couldn’t help but turn red. She was touched and held the woman’s hand. “Auntie, I didn’t expect to see you again.”
“Silly child.” The woman raised her hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes. When she saw the two unfamiliar girls standing at the side, she hurriedly smiled shyly and invited them into the cafeteria.
Xiao Zhi happily stuck to Bai Xue and grabbed her hand. He rambled on about how Gao Wen had helped their family along the way.
Shi Man also diverted her attention to listen to Xiao Zhi, and her impression of Gao Wen improved.
Su Tang and Bai Xue were also very shocked by Gao Wen’s actions. After the plagiarism incident last time, they thought that Gao Wen was an unruly young lady. They did not expect her to have such a warm side.
Not only did she treat Xiao Zhi’s mother’s illness, but she also paid for this new cafeteria for them. She even sent someone to redecorate it. From beginning to end, she had been busy helping, paying, and putting in effort.
Their rejection of Gao Wen completely dissipated. They even had the intention to befriend her.
To Bai Xue, Xiao Zhi and the others were like her family. They chose to give her a place to stay when she was at her lowest, so Gao Wen, who they regarded as their benefactor, was naturally her benefactor.
Gao Wen had already informed the family about Shi Man and the others beforehand, so the cafeteria did not receive any guests today.
The couple had been busy the entire morning and made a table full of their best dishes, afraid that nobles like them would not be used to their food.
Gao Wen enthusiastically introduced these dishes to Shi Man. When Shi Man picked up her chopsticks, her heart seemed to be in her throat.
Gao Wen suddenly heard a gasp. She turned around in surprise and saw that the couple was also looking at Shi Man with fear. Their reaction was exactly the same as hers.
Gao Wen was suddenly not so nervous. It was only when Shi Man was eating that she dared to size up the dress on Shi Man.
The pattern that she had painstakingly designed was worn well on Shi Man’s body, perfectly highlighting her figure. She had studied every feature meticulously without sleeping or eating. Even the designs on her sleeves were outlined by her bit by bit.
Actually, when she made this dress, she had some selfish motives.
When she was setting the style of the clothes, she boldly wanted to see Shi Man in a dress. She did not think that this would damage Shi Man’s heroic spirit and add to her valiantness.
As expected, after the real thing was worn by Shi Man, it perfectly confirmed her thoughts.
Shi Man’s figure happened to support this dress. Her curvaceous outline was very eye-catching, but it did not make people feel that it looked frivolous. Instead, it made Shu Man look more noble, making people not dare to look at her directly.
Gao Wen stared at her for a long time, not noticing that Shi Man was also looking at her calmly.
When she reacted, she met Shi Man’s smiling black eyes.
Gao Wen’s heart beat faster for no reason. She hurriedly pointed at another dish and smiled awkwardly. “Try this again. 1 like this flavor very much. I don’t know if you’ll like it.”
“I like it. I just ate. You were staring at me and didn’t notice.” Shi Man slowly bit the front of her chopsticks and ate the vegetables on it.
Her red lips slowly rolled over the chopsticks and quickly retreated. Gao Wen’s eyes widened as she suddenly had an even bolder idea. “Um, President, can I design another dress for you?”
“Of course.” Shi Man quite liked Gao Wen’s aesthetic taste. She agreed to this suggestion without thinking.
Su Tang was a little jealous. She frowned aggrievedly and tugged at her sleeve. “Manman, you still have to wear the clothes 1 made for you!”
“I know. I’ll wear them all.” Shi Man turned around helplessly to coax Su Tang. She suddenly felt like a scumbag. However, she did like both of their designs. It would be her loss to reject either of them.
Anyway, she had to change her clothes every day. The two of them could do whatever they wanted. It was not like she could not wear them all.
As they spoke, they were almost done eating.
Soon, it would be Shi Man and Yi Zheng’s engagement party. She still had many things to do and did not stay in the restaurant for long. She drove Bai Xue and Su Tang back to the Shi family.
However, just as the car reached the door, a familiar car stopped in front of her.
Shi Man recognized whose car it was at a glance because just last year, she had sat in this car and joined forces with the owner to deal with Yi Zheng..
