”Uh...” Xie Shuyu paused for a moment, her steps unconsciously quickened as she reached out to take the phone her mother handed over and glanced at it.

Mrs. Xie explained, ”I didn’t pick up the first time he called, but then he called again. I was afraid it might be urgent, so I answered.”

”I got it, Mom. I’ll go return the call.” Xie Shuyu said, and once again stepped out of the banquet area.

”Beep beep—” The phone rang twice before it was connected.

”Hello, are you coming to River View Courtyard? When?”

”Soon, I should be there in about 3 minutes. Are you free now? I’d like to talk to you about the investment in Glimmer Coffee. If you’re busy, we can meet tomorrow.”

Xie Shuyu was silent for a moment and then said quietly, ”I’m available. I’ll meet you downstairs at the east gate of River View Courtyard.”

”Okay, see you soon then.”

”Bye-bye.”

After hanging up, Xie Shuyu looked at her own reflection in the floor-to-ceiling window, feeling a sudden surge of joy.

This emotion came fiercely and inexplicably.

She was confident and resilient by nature, and believed in her ability to overcome challenges one after another.

However, the plight of Glimmer Coffee and the failure to secure funding had dealt her significant blows, leaving her feeling confused and defeated.

This return to her hometown Quan City from Yan City, whether it was an off-road trip or chatting with her parents and friends, was a process of self-healing.

Now hearing that Tang Song was coming to see her, she became invigorated.

Back at the banquet area.

Seeing the gazes from her relatives, the slight upward curve of Xie Shuyu’s lips fell.

She picked up her bag from the seat and said softly, ”A friend is coming, I need to go out for a bit.”

”Why don’t...” Mrs. Xie said quietly, ”why not invite your friend in for a sit? Have a chat?”

Zeng Yan chimed in, ”Yeah Yu, since it’s your friend, invite him up. We can add a few more dishes.”

”No need.” Xie Shuyu shook her head calmly, slinging the bag over her shoulder.

What would bringing Tang Song over to a bunch of relatives mean?

Inappropriate.

Mrs. Xie quickly grabbed her and asked, ”Will you be coming back later?”

”We’ve almost finished eating, so I won’t be coming back. Mom, since you haven’t had any alcohol, you can drive Dad home later.” Xie Shuyu handed over the BMW car keys, ”I’m leaving now, my friend will be downstairs soon. Bye.”

There was nothing much going on anyway, and if she stayed, she might end up listening to her aunt talk about registering babies and household registrations. It was a perfect excuse to leave.

Xie Chunying stood up and said, ”Right, Sis, why don’t I go down with you? I haven’t given you the gift I brought from abroad yet.”

”No worries, just give it to my mom later.”

”Alright then...” Xie Chunying was a bit disappointed; she had always admired her cousin.

She had heard it might be her boyfriend and really wanted to see for herself.

They watched as Xie Shuyu walked out of the private room with her long strides.

The crowd exchanged glances and started to chatter again.

Xie Chunying quickly went to the floor-to-ceiling window, her eyes fixed tightly on the street below.

After a while, she exclaimed in surprise, ”My sister came out, she’s waiting outside, that guy should be arriving soon!”

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Xie couldn’t sit still, ”Let me see what he looks like. After all, he sounds particularly young.”

After all, it’s her daughter, how could she not be concerned?

However, she knew her daughter’s temperament and character, so she never interfered too much.

Then, a few more relatives got up from their seats and went to the window.

”I want to see too, Sister Shuyu is so outstanding, the guy she chooses can’t be bad!”

”Maybe he’s also a big shot.”

”Money doesn’t matter, as long as he’s decent.”

...

...

The overcast sky was like a heavy gray gauze gently covering it.

The black Rolls-Royce drove along the winding road, quietly weaving through the night.

Soon, the calm, flowing river water came into view.

River View Courtyard was adjacent to a clear river, not far from the Garden Exhibition Park.

Surrounded by lush trees, the roads were wide and smooth, and the environment was excellent.

Tang Song checked the map app, seeing that it was only a few hundred meters to the destination.

His fingers lightly tapped the armrest, his eyes brimming with expectation and excitement.

This time, he would completely refresh Xie Shuyu’s impression of him.

As an investor, he would be involved in her and Glimmer Coffee’s future.

Their relationship would also undergo a fundamental change.

The car made a smooth turn and slowly entered Binhe Road.

Tang Song’s gaze passed through the front windshield and saw Xie Shuyu standing on the sidewalk.

The dim yellow streetlights cast a soft glow, making her figure appear taller.

Her jet-black hair was slightly curled, falling smoothly to both sides of her shoulders.

She looked down slightly, her left hand resting on her right arm, and on her shoulder hung the familiar petite malle.

The hem of her clothing fluttered gently with the breeze, adding a hint of cool elegance to her.

Under the A-line skirt, her long, fair legs were tightly together, elegant and sexy.

Seeing that incredibly familiar figure, recalling past scenes, Tang Song’s heartbeat involuntarily sped up.

Xie Shuyu, Xie Shuyu.

...

The bright lights swept over the curb, casting long shadows on her body.

Xie Shuyu squinted slightly and shifted position.

As she looked up, she saw the Rolls-Royce slowly approaching.

The wheels rolled gently over the ground, making a slight sound.

The Spirit of Ecstasy on the hood shone with a charming luster under the streetlights, as if coated with a thin layer of golden brilliance.

The majestic car body and exquisite chrome decorations outlined a luxurious silhouette.

Regarding the Phantom, Xie Shuyu was not unfamiliar.
