Fallen To The Ruthless Obssessive CEO-Chapter 426 - 390: Escaping the Hotpot Restaurant

"Women definitely like it."

Bao Ye listened, and his mood instantly soured.

He stared coldly at Chen Nan, inexplicably saying, "Seems like you really understand what women think."

Chen Nan felt intimidated: "Not really, I just read that in the trending comments. But I did go with friends last time, and it was indeed quite good."

"Are you done talking?" Bao Ye put down his phone, grasped the mouse, and didn’t even glance at him: "If you’re finished, you can leave now."

The attitude could be described as absolutely indifferent.

Completely different from the atmosphere of just now when talking about the restaurant.

This left Chen Nan a bit baffled.

Could it be that Mr. Bao was rejected by Miss Jiang?

Is that why he’s so frosty?

Upon leaving the office, Chen Nan pondered that in all of Beijing, the only person who dared to reject Mr. Bao might be Miss Jiang.

Chen Nan really had good prospects for Miss Jiang.

The future Mrs. Bao is most likely to be Miss Jiang.

Chen Nan rubbed his chin, showing foresight, believing he had to cozy up to Miss Jiang early to secure his future livelihood.

In the afternoon, Jiang Ruan met Lu Jie and Su Tiantian at the hot pot restaurant.

The three ordered the spiciest Chongqing broth.

The waiter brought it up, filled with a layer of red oil.

Su Tiantian used to not eat spicy food, but after hanging out with them, she gradually learned to enjoy it.

Now she can’t have enough of it.

Chatting away, Lu Jie dropped a plate of tripe into the pot. A few seconds later, she exclaimed, "Quick, quick, the tripe is ready, it can’t be overcooked, or it won’t taste good!"

The three grabbed the tripe with chopsticks, dipped it into the sauce, and as soon as it hit their mouths, the crispness of the tripe mixed with the spicy tang of the hot pot.

Jiang Ruan exhaled the steam, feeling slightly burned, and praised, "It’s so delicious."

"This broth is indeed tasty, spicy and numbing, better than the last place we tried."

Su Tiantian agreed, "Exactly, hotpot has to be spicy to taste good, the last place didn’t have any flavor at all."

Lu Jie boasted, "Of course. You should see who found this place."

The three chatted and laughed.

They ate a lot, and Jiang Ruan’s sauce was running low. She got up, "I’m going to get some more sauce, Lu Jie, do you want any?"

Lu Jie said no, and Su Tiantian got up with her, "I do, let’s go together."

Jiang Ruan then went with Su Tiantian to the sauce station outside their private booth.

Jiang Ruan hadn’t put on makeup, specifically removing it at the company before coming over.

She was dressed simply, with her hair down covering half her face, thinking there was no way she’d be recognized like this.

Su Tiantian stood beside her, watching Jiang Ruan scoop mushroom sauce into her bowl, and she asked curiously, "Is this sauce good? I saw you scooped a lot earlier."

"It’s delicious," Jiang Ruan replied. "Adds freshness, want to try some?"

Su Tiantian laughed, "Sure, get me some too."

She moved her bowl closer.

Su Tiantian hadn’t tied her hair today either, letting it down naturally.

The two of them finished preparing their sauces and returned to the booth.

They ate for a while, when suddenly there was a commotion outside.

Lu Jie peeked out, "What’s going on? Why is it so noisy?"

Su Tiantian: "I don’t know."

Lu Jie: "I’ll go check."

Then Lu Jie went out.

Su Tiantian wanted to follow, but then Jiang Ruan’s phone rang.

Seeing it was Sister Qin, Jiang Ruan put down her chopsticks and picked up her phone.

As soon as she answered, she heard Sister Qin’s anxious voice: "Sweetie, are you still at that hot pot restaurant? You better run! Someone posted your picture online at the sauce station, now everyone around knows you’re there."

"I bet there are already tons of people over there? Put on a mask and hat and get out of the restaurant quickly before they find you, or you won’t be able to leave later."

Jiang Ruan widened her eyes, dumbfounded: "Seriously?"

At this moment, Lu Jie rushed back to Jiang Ruan’s side: "I found out someone posted your picture online, and now the outside is full of your fans looking for you. We better leave quickly."

"Going out like this won’t work, since your photos are already online, you’ll definitely be recognized," Su Tiantian said.

Jiang Ruan: "You’re right."

Lu Jie frowned, "What should we do then?"

Su Tiantian pulled a hair tie out of her pocket and said to Jiang Ruan, "I have a hair tie, you can put your hair up in a high ponytail and wear a mask, then no one will recognize you."

"Also, put on my jacket while I hold onto yours. With a hat on, as long as they can’t see your face, they’ll think you’re just a student."

Listening to her, Jiang Ruan thought it was a good idea.

Looking at the hair tie in her hand, she gritted her teeth and said, "Alright."

Ten minutes later, the three finally squeezed out of the crowded hot pot restaurant.
