Chapter 306

[A high-class private restaurant]

Six beautiful waitresses in bright red cheongsam entered the room one by one with standard smiles,
serving the VIP guests with expensive, court-style dishes in the room.

Crystal sighed to herself, "Even being a waitress isn't easy nowadays."

It was such a waste that twenty-eight dishes were placed all over the table to serve only three people.

"What are you looking at, beauty? Let's start to eat"

A teasing voice reminded her.

Crystal looked away from those beautiful waitresses at once embarrassedly.

A woman could appreciate other beautiful women too, couldn't she? The side-slites of those beauties'
cheongsams were so high that their slender, fair thighs were showing, attracting everyone's attention.

"Come on!"

Chandler took a glance at her and handed her a bowl of fin soup.

"It's still early in the morning.Why did you order so many dishes? It's too much for the three of us"

Crystal said in a low voice since she didn't want to be rude when a strange male client was sitting right
in front of her.

"Yes, Chandler, we can't finish so many dishes"

The male client also seemed to be surprised about how many dishes Chandler had ordered crystal
blushed in embarrassment.



The client seemed to be close with Chandler, laughing when he saw Crystal's expression.

"Hello, beauty.Are you Chandler's assistant? I've never seen him take his assistant out with him..."

"I'm not." Crystal denied nervously.

"Ah, then you are his sister..."

"I, I'm not"

Crystal got even more nervous, lowering her head down.

"John, stop making fun of her."

Chandler sighed as he finally helped Crystal out.

The client, John, burst into huge laughter.

"Chandler, it turns out that you are fond of this type of woman.No wonder..."

Crystal wanted to explain but she couldn't look up as her face was so hot and red at this moment.

The manager of the restaurant walked into their room, asking with a smile, "What kind of wine do you
need? We have a variety of..."

"We don't drink today.Thanks:" Chandler answered quickly.

But even Crystal, who was only a rookie that used to work at the IP&G Group, knew that when
negotiating a contract, you always had to accommodate your client like he or she was your god.

So she tugged at his sleeve secretly, reminding him in a low voice, "You have to let the client choose
whether to drink or not, even though you can't drink yourself"



Staring at the little fingers on his sleeve, Chandler paused for two seconds.

Then he told her righteously, "I know.But I can't drink when you're with me.As long as I can't, neither of
you get to drink today."

Crystal glared at him in shock.

This man didn't feel ashamed at all! John tried so hard not to laugh out until the manager left.

As soon as the door was closed, he patted the table and burst into laughter.

"You two make such an adorable couple!"

"How could he know what we were talking about?" Crystal thought as she was frozen in shock.

Chandler explained to her calmly, "John can read lips."

Why didn't you tell me that earlier? Crystal was embarrassed.

Therefore, during the following time when the two men were discussing business, she just lowered her
head and ate angrily in silence.

Chandler and John didn't eat much other than some vegetables.

Their discussion went on smoothly.

After deciding on some details, they signed the contract and got everything settled quickly.

"Don't eat too much” Chandler reminded Crystal as he was packing his bag.

She was eating in a way as if she was going to stuff all the twenty-eight dishes in her stomach.

He couldn't help but sigh.



She must have hated to waste any food.

"But there's still a lot left” Crystal said as she was chewing an unknown animal's paw.

She looked up at them, knowing that John, like Mr.Shepherd, was Chandler's friend.

So she didn't have to act restrainedly in front of him.She was now wondering if she should ask the
waitress to pack all the food left for her.

Chandler knew that she must have been thinking about ways not to waste the food on the table.

He couldn't help but smile since he found it so cute.

"Don't forget that we live in A City.We have to rush back tonight"

Crystal, a poor citizen, was very upset.

"But what should we do about those dishes? Look, the six dishes over there are not even touched"

"Oh, no, I drank too much juice just now..."

Crystal acted casually now since she knew there was no need to pretend to be a noble lady.She refilled
her glasses with juice three times just now when she noticed that the menu said all juices were free.

Therefore, she felt an urge to use the washroom now and left immediately.

Chandler was shocked to see her rush out.She ran so fast that he couldn't even stop her.

It was surprising that such a soft creature could react so quickly.

In fact, he wanted to tell her that she could just use the washroom in the room.

John took the chance when they were alone.



He sat down beside him immediately, hugged his shoulder as if they were brothers, and asked in a
gossipy tone.

"Chandler, after all these years, you finally find yourself a woman.I'm so happy for you."

Chandler ignored him with an expressionless face.

Why all his friends were just idiots like John? He really should have thought twice before establishing a
friendship.

They waited in the room for twenty minutes but Crystal still didn’t come back.

Chandler frowned.

He decided to go downstairs to pay the bill and check if she was lost.

"Chandler, this is the first time I've seen you take care of a lady like this."

John made fun of him again as they walked out together, "I'm looking forward to receiving your wedding
invitation now."

"To be honest, Charles and I didn't really want to go to your wedding the last time.Now that you have
divorced Erica, you should totally get rid of her.Don't let your past ruin your current life..."

"I'll handle my own business."

Chandler turned around as he took the last step down the stairs.

Then he added in a colder vaice, "Crystal and I are just friends.Don't talk about us with others."

John, who had been friends with him for many years, shrugged, "Sorry I said too much.I was a little
excited."



Now that the contract was signed and the business was done, there was no need for John to stay
longer.

What's more, Chandler seemed to be a little angry about what John had said just now.

John could see that from Chandler's face, so he left soon.

Chandler, who realized he had been rude just now, shouted at John's back, "Merry Christmas."

John smiled in his heart.

Chandler was known to be one of the most rational and calm among their friends’ circle, who didn't
usually get angry as he had been just now.

John shouldn't have said those words because everyone had their own secrets that they didn't want
others to touch.

"Merry Christmas."

John muttered through the glass door, looking at his friend inside.

People like them seemed to live a brilliant and wonderful life, but in fact, they were so busy every day
that they couldn't spare a minute to celebrate the festival.

A lover to cuddle with was such a luxury for them in this cold world full of vanity.
