The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family -
Chapter 2751
When Yolden saw that Charlie had arrived, he hurriedly called for Charlie to sit beside him.
The Diamond Room in The Heaven Springs was the most luxurious private room in the restaurant. The large round table could fit at least twenty people at the same time. So, it looked a little deserted when there were only three people seated at the table.
After Charlie had sat down next to Yolden, Yolden looked at Autumn, who was seated on the opposite side, as he said, "Autumn, there are only three of us. So, why are you sitting so far away? Hurry up and come sit over here."
Autumn said awkwardly, "I should sit here. It would be quite awkward for three people to be seated next to each other at such a big table."
Yolden shook his head helplessly before he said," Okay, then. It's up to you."
As he spoke, he asked Charlie, "Charlie, can we have a couple of drinks?"
Charlie laughed before he said, "It's fine with me, but it simply depends on whether you still have work in the afternoon."
Yolden smiled as he said, "I do not have any more
classes in the afternoon. So, I'm going to ask for a halfday leave from the university. Looks like both of us can enjoy a couple of drinks together in the afternoon, then. After that, I'll take Autumn home with me so that she can have a good rest. She has finally come home after many difficulties. So, I cannot possibly leave her on her own and return to the university."
Charlie nodded before he said, "Indeed. Autumn has also suffered quite a bit during this time. She does indeed need to rest well over the next two days. Since that is the case, I'll accompany you to have some drinks in the afternoon, then. After we are done with lunch, I'll ask Albert to send you and Autumn home."
Yolden smiled and said, "That's great. We should open up and enjoy a few drinks, then!"
At this time, Albert happened to push the door open as he asked Charlie, "Master Wade, the cold dishes are ready. Can we serve it first?"
Charlie hurriedly replied, "Go ahead and serve it! Bring me two bottles of Moutai too. I'll have a few drinks with Professor Hart."
"Okay!" Albert agreed without any hesitation at all as he said, "Then, I'll arrange for the hot dishes for you according to the usual specifications of the Diamond Boom."
Charlie waved his hand. "You don't need to be so ostentatious. The usual specification for your Diamond Room is catered to twenty people. There are only three of us now. How could we possibly finish so much food?"
Yolden also hurriedly said, "We could just eat casually. We don't need to be too extravagant and wasteful. The whole country is promoting thrift and frugality now. So, we also have to respond and try to eliminate wastage."
Charlie suddenly had a bright idea as he said," Professor Hart, why don't you head to the back kitchen directly and see what dishes you're interested in? After that, you can ask the chef to prepare it for you on the spot. You can just order four dishes and one soup for the three of us."
Yolden hurriedly said, "No need! It's alright. I'm not a picky eater. I can eat just about anything."
Charlie laughed as he said, "To tell you the truth, I have problems when making decisions. So, please go and check it out so that you can choose a few dishes, then."
At this time, Albert, who was aside, could not help but feel a little confused and puzzled as he thought, What is Master Wade up to this time? If he wants to order any dishes, I could just bring him the menu, right? Why would he ask Professor Hart to go to the back kitchen to check it out? Generally speaking, the vast majority of the back kitchen of any restaurant would always be closed to the customers. The Heaven Springs has never had this kind of operation before either.'
Just as he was wondering about it, he suddenly glanced at Autumn, who was sitting opposite Charlie. She had a stunning appearance, but she had a frown and a sad expression on her face, and Albert suddenly came to a realization at this time.
'So, it seems as though Master Wade is trying to send Professor Hart away so that he can spend some time alone with Professor Hart's daughter...' 4
As he thought about this, Albert hurriedly said to Yolden, "Professor Hart, since you're Master Wade's most honored guest, of course, it's only natural for you to decide what dishes to order."
After he was done speaking, Albert made an inviting gesture as he said respectfully, "Professor Hart, please come to the back kitchen with me. I'll give you a good introduction of our specialty dishes at The Heaven Springs!"
When Yolden saw this, he felt that it would be most ungracious for him to turn down his kindness. So, he could only agree as he said, "Alright, then. In that case, it'd be better for me to accept your offer deferentially rather than to decline it courteously!" 4
Immediately after that, Yolden left the private room together with Albert.
As soon as the both of them had left, Charlie looked at Autumn before he said with some embarrassment," Well, Autumn, is the lingerie that I bought for you this morning not fitting for you?" i
