2292 Mr. Martin, This Is the Friend I’m Introducing to You Today
He was eating Chinese cuisine. The light seasoning was more suitable for the Nordic taste and looked very exquisite.
As he ate, he spoke to the person opposite him in a good mood. “By the way, you said that you wanted to introduce me to a friend. Is that friend of yours running late?”
The person sitting opposite him happened to see a girl walking over from the corner of his eye. The corners of his mouth curled up and he said gently, “She’s here.”
…
Qiao Nian had just entered when Lu Zhi called her. “Here.”
She raised her eyebrows and saw only one table in the restaurant.
“There’s no need. I’ve already seen my friend.” Qiao Nian said to the waiter, then walked towards the table at the window.
Lu Zhi was conspicuous.
Even people who did not notice his outstanding appearance at first glance would notice his wheelchair. In short, it was difficult to ignore him.
Qiao Nian saw another person sitting opposite him. It was a foreigner who was sizing her up curiously.
Her eyes darkened. She pursed her lips as she approached them.
Lu Zhi smiled and introduced her, “Mr. Martin, this is the friend I’m going to introduce to you today, Qiao Nian.”
Martin…
Qiao Nian’s eyes narrowed. Feng Yu had just mentioned this name to her half an hour ago.
She looked at the foreign man and paused, then extended her hand politely. “Hello, I’m Qiao Nian.”
However, Martin just stared at her. His eyes were fixed on the girl’s eyes as if he could see someone else through them.
“Mr. Martin.” Lu Zhi was slightly displeased, but he did not easily reveal his emotions. He only called out faintly.
Suddenly coming back to his senses, Martin’s expression became strange. After a few seconds, he shook her hand politely and then said casually, “I’m sorry, I got the wrong person. Your eyes are too special. I thought you were an old friend. I’m very sorry, Miss Qiao. Please don’t mind.”
With his status, he was willing to explain and apologize to an unfamiliar girl purely because of Lu Zhi.
Qiao Nian understood this and did not harp on it. She nodded and said that she did not mind. After sitting down, she ordered a cup of warm water from the waiter.
Lu Zhi’s mood improved a little when she sat on his side. He asked in a low voice, “Do you want to eat something else? The spicy chicken here is pretty good.”
“I ate something before I came. I can’t eat anymore.” Qiao Nian rejected him politely.
Lu Zhi did not insist and just ordered a cup of hot cocoa for her. The waiter moved very quickly. Juice and hot cocoa were basically sent over at the same time.
Qiao Nian could not reject his good intentions, so she picked up the cup of hot cocoa and lowered her head to take a sip.
It was not bad.
In particular, the drinks in such a restaurant must be carefully brewed.
However, Qiao Nian had no appetite.
She did not find such a sweet drink delicious since she had just finished her meal. Her stomach only felt uncomfortable.
Qiao Nian only took a small sip before putting down the cup. Suddenly, she looked at Martin with a bright gaze and asked, “Mr. Martin, you just said you thought I was an old friend. Is it convenient to ask who that old friend is?”
