"It's He Lintian."
Lu Zhiyun gave a brief explanation.
Song Rongzhi suddenly realized, but she didn't want to engage in these social interactions.
Therefore, she politely declined Lu Zhiyun's invitation, saying, "I have something to do, so I won't be able to have a meal. Could you please pass on my message?"
The birthday party is now over, and her work is done, so naturally she doesn't want to stay any longer.
After responding to Lu Zhiyun, Song Rongzhi prepared to leave.
She has a personal assistant who helps with her daily life. She just called and asked the assistant to come pick her up.
Judging by the time, we're almost at the He family manor.
Song Rongzhi didn't want to stay any longer, so she turned around and walked towards the gate of the He family manor.
Lu Zhiyun remembered He Lintian's instructions and didn't dare to insist on keeping him. He could only quickly run back to the banquet hall to inform him of the situation.
"It's a real shame that this beautiful chef has something to attend to, so it's not convenient for her to stay."
He Lintian said with feigned regret.
In fact, she was afraid that Song Rongzhi would inadvertently reveal the truth after she arrived.
She was hired by He Lintian at a high price, and had no connection with the He family at all. He Lintian did not want to lose face in front of his friends.
Upon learning that Song Rongzhi was leaving, they naturally did not try to stop her.
However, out of courtesy, He Lintian still got up and prepared to see the other party off at the gate.
After all, He Lintian planned to invite Song Rongzhi to host banquets whenever the He family had a happy occasion in the future.
"Excuse me, everyone, I'll go see if I can persuade this beautiful chef to stay for a meal before she leaves."
He Lintian said something to his friend, then left the banquet hall and headed towards the mansion's main gate.
He Qinzhou knew that He Lintian had spent a lot of money to invite Song Rongzhi, so he naturally had doubts about He Lintian's words.
After thinking for a moment, he got up and left the banquet hall.
Moreover, although Song Rongzhi had met him, he had not yet seen what Song Rongzhi actually looked like.
Therefore, he naturally wanted to see what the legendary beautiful chef looked like.
In particular, I want to see for myself whether Song Rongzhi's legs are really that long.
He Lintian arrived at the main gate of the manor.
Song Rongzhi stood with her back to the manor gate, a luxury handbag slung over her shoulder, as if waiting for something.
Hearing footsteps behind him, he suddenly turned around.
"Miss Song, won't you stay for the banquet before you leave?"
He Lintian said with a smile.
"Thank you for your hospitality, but I have some things to attend to, so I won't stay for dinner."
Song Rongzhi was polite on the surface.
"Alright then, Miss Song, take care."
He Lintian didn't insist on keeping him. He nodded with feigned regret and then said, "I will transfer the remaining payment to your account tomorrow morning."
"Okay." Song Rongzhi nodded and smiled politely.
At this moment, a red Mercedes-Benz van drove up and stopped at the gate of the He Family Manor.
Clearly, it was Song Rongzhi's personal female assistant who arrived by car.
"Miss Song, I won't see you off any further."
He Lintian said politely again.
Song Rongzhi gave a fake smile, too lazy to reply, and prepared to get into the car.
Suddenly, I caught sight of a figure approaching from not far away.
Song Rongzhi, who was about to get into the car, suddenly froze and stared intently at the approaching figure.
A smile gradually blossomed on her exquisitely beautiful face.
Because He Qinzhou's cultivation level was not low, he spotted Song Rongzhi from afar.
Song Rongzhi is really tall.
Judging by appearance, he's at least 175cm tall.
Moreover, despite her height, she is not flat; her curves are amazing, with a prominent bust and buttocks, making her a supermodel figure.
The legs encased in tight jeans are truly long and perfectly proportioned; adding or subtracting even a fraction of their size would detract from their beauty—they are simply just right.
Only two words can describe perfection!
He Qinzhou asked himself, he had carried responsibility and hatred on his shoulders, but he had never carried such long legs.
Most importantly, Song Rongzhi has very fair skin.
It wasn't a sickly pale color, but rather a natural, supple white.
Her skin was as good as a baby's, without a single blemish.
Soon, He Qinzhou arrived at He Lintian's side, and Song Rongzhi could see it more clearly, her heart pounding wildly.
"Miss Song?"
The female assistant waited outside the car, ready to close the door for Song Rongzhi after she got in.
However, Song Rongzhi remained motionless for a long time, with one foot inside the car and the other on the ground.
The female assistant was also puzzled, so she asked a question.
Hearing the sound, Song Rongzhi came to her senses and quickly looked away from where she was looking.
Then, he withdrew one of his long legs that had stepped into the car.
She walked up to He Lintian.
He Qinzhou found this rather strange.
Song Zhihui was about to get into the car and leave, so why did she suddenly come back?
“Mr. He, I’ve thought about it again. You’ve extended such a warm invitation, it would be disrespectful of you to just leave like this.”
While He Lintian was puzzled, Song Rongzhi suddenly spoke up.
Because she felt guilty, Song Rongzhi didn't dare to look at He Qinzhou, who was standing next to He Lintian, when she said this.
Chapter 398: I'm fine with staying as long as I want.
Hearing Song Rongzhi's words, He Lintian's face fell.
To be honest, he really wanted Song Rongzhi to just leave like that.
He was afraid that if Song Rongzhi went to the banquet, she would inadvertently expose the lie he had told before.
However, since Song Rongzhi had already said so, He Lintian couldn't possibly kick her out.
"Haha, please go ahead then."
He Lintian composed himself, put on a smile, and outwardly appeared to be extremely welcoming.
Then, He Lintian led the way.
He Qinzhou was well aware of the reason for the 180-degree change in his attitude towards Song Rongzhi, but he remained silent.
During the journey, Song Rongzhi suddenly asked He Lintian, "Who is this person next to you?"
“This is my son, He Qinzhou.”
He Lintian didn't think too much about it and gave a brief introduction.
When Song Rongzhi saw the person she had fallen in love with at first sight, she already had some guesses.
But he was still surprised when He Lintian said his name.
She never imagined that the son of the host who hired her to be at the dinner party was the handsome man she had fallen for at first sight.
She shyly glanced over.
At the same time, He Qinzhou also turned his head and cast his gaze in that direction.
Their eyes met briefly in mid-air.
He Qinzhou remained outwardly calm, but Song Rongzhi felt her heart race. She took a deep breath, composed herself, and gave a smile, "Hi, hello."
As they spoke, he extended his hand.
"Hello."
He Qinzhou nodded and reached out to shake hands with Song Rongzhi.
I felt that Song Rongzhi's hands were softer and smoother than I had imagined.
Logically speaking, Song Rongzhi, as a chef, should have somewhat rough hands.
But on second thought, if Song Rongzhi wore special gloves when handling ingredients and cooking, and took good care of herself, it would be normal for her skin to be so delicate.
Moreover, the female protagonist's halo is never reasonable.
After a moment of thought, the two shook hands and then let go of each other.
However, He Qinzhou could clearly feel that Song Rongzhi's hand trembled slightly when the two shook hands.
He Lintian, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but feel a little strange.
Song Rongzhi didn't even shake hands with him, so why did she seem so eager to greet her son?
But on second thought, this seems to be a good thing.
Before long, the three of them arrived at the banquet hall.
There was a reserved seat for Song Rongzhi at the friends' table.
After Song Rongzhi arrived, she naturally sat down there.
Zeng Xueting, who was carefully savoring her food, was so surprised when her best friend appeared that her jaw almost dropped to the ground.
She knew her best friend very well; she never liked having deep relationships with these wealthy people.
Therefore, she never stayed after preparing a dinner for those people.
However, this time she stayed to have dinner with the host family.
If the occasion weren't inappropriate, Zeng Xueting would definitely ask Song Rongzhi for a proper answer!
He Lintian had previously boasted about his relationship with Song Rongzhi, so after he helped Song Rongzhi to her seat, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and pretend that he and Song Rongzhi were very close, and introduced her to his friends.
After saying these words, He Lintian felt extremely nervous.
They were afraid that Song Rongzhi would reveal the truth.
Surprisingly, Song Rongzhi not only did not reveal the truth, but she was also very polite to herself and Jiang Suyue during the banquet.
Seeing this, his friends had no doubt about He Lintian's words.
By the time the dinner ended, it was completely dark outside.
He Lintian saw his friends off one by one.
Song Rongzhi lingered a little longer, but as the guests gradually dispersed, she felt it was inappropriate to stay any longer.
"Mr. He, it's time for me to go too. Goodbye."
"Miss Song, it's getting late. It's not safe for a young woman like you to go home alone. Why don't you stay here for the night?"
He Lintian tried to persuade him to stay.
His actions were entirely to thank Song Rongzhi for not exposing him before, which is why he was being so hospitable and polite.
"That's annoying."
As if afraid that He Lintian would change his mind, Song Rongzhi quickly agreed.
"Okay, then I'll take it to you right away..."
He Lintian blurted out, but quickly realized that the situation was different from what he had expected, so he quickly changed his words and said, "I won't bother you. It would be an honor for my humble abode if Miss Song could stay."
