Online dating backfired? A wealthy heir begged me to continue lying to him.

Hot dishes are served in large portions on the table, but are then divided into smaller portions on the spot.

"Steamed deep-sea toothfish with sea cucumber sauce is our restaurant's signature dish."

The waiter sliced ​​the food while explaining its features.

"The selected high-quality American ginseng extract has a clear juice without any bitterness. It replenishes qi and nourishes yin without causing dryness or heat, and can relieve fatigue caused by excessive mental exertion."

Upon hearing about this effect, the students' eyes lit up immediately.

"This is good!"

This is exactly what they need most, given their heavy use of their brains.

Su Qingqian couldn't help but give Su Ruan a thumbs up, "Ruan Ruan is so thoughtful."

A whole steamed deep-sea toothfish was neatly divided into 12 portions and distributed to everyone.

The fish slices were clear and bright in color, and the broth had a fragrant aroma.

Lu Shuangshuang couldn't help but praise, "I've eaten quite a few medicinal dishes myself, and this tastes authentic!"

Su Ruan and the others laughed.

If we're talking about who has the most authority on medicinal cuisine, then it's naturally Lu Shuangshuang, who has been eating medicinal cuisine since she was a child.

The fact that Lu Shuangshuang has now approved of the restaurant's dishes is undoubtedly the best proof of this.

Ge Wenpei, the owner of Ding Shi Ji and currently the only waitress, has also been quietly observing this table of diners.

Her previous scrutiny stemmed from her professional instincts.

The reason for this observation is the purpose of this group of people's visit.

She really hadn't expected that the unexpected guests at this table would be there for investment purposes.

Of course, she had no doubt that these people were rich before.

Now, however, there is more recognition of their identities.

The people in this group were not wearing well-known luxury brands, but rather genuine top-tier custom-made pieces.

Comfortable and casual, yet expensive, this is not something ordinary rich kids would wear when going out for dinner.

Judging from their speech, demeanor, and table manners, they all possess a composure and confidence that only those who have been in positions of power for many years can have.

They also possess insight and business acumen far exceeding that of their peers, far surpassing that of ordinary, clueless rich kids.

These are the people who have the most faith in their own judgment and are the most decisive.

If you want to achieve something great, you will forge ahead without hesitation.

It is the most difficult to grasp, and also the easiest to grasp.

It's clearly much more suitable than those shrewd investors.

Especially their investment philosophy.

Those with money contribute funds, but they don't interfere too much in areas where they are not good at business.

Moreover, they are all aiming to build a career, not for short-term gains.

They are the investors that those who need funds crave most.

Whether these people will actually choose to invest remains to be seen.

It's possible that if even one person voices an objection, the whole thing could collapse.

But Ge Wenpei dared not show her worries at all; she was still waiting for these people to come to her on their own initiative.

The second hot dish was served.

"Amomum honey-braised M7 Wagyu beef short ribs, made with M7 Wagyu beef, braised with Amomum villosum, which neutralizes the fat in the beef, making it fragrant but not greasy, and warming to the spleen and stomach."

When the second dish was served, before anyone else could react, Ruan Taole exclaimed in surprise.

"Wagyu beef! I've never had Wagyu beef before. I'm determined to taste what the finest Wagyu beef is like today."

Ji Ning nodded in agreement.

By this point in the meal, Ji Ning's initial reserve had completely vanished.

Take photos and enjoy the food with Ruan Tao Le.

Su Ruan took a bite and found no bitterness or greasiness from the Wagyu beef. The medicine was hidden in the meat, leaving a lingering fragrance on her lips and teeth.

After the second dish was served, Ge Wenpei collected all the empty plates and pushed the food cart out.

Inside the private room, the conversation continued.

Lu Yanci glanced at Su Ruan.

"Did you just notice that the waiter was already at the door?"

Su Ruan smiled gently, "How did you know?"

You should know that Lu Yanci was sitting diagonally across from her.

Su Ruan was able to hear the faint sound of wheels outside the door thanks to her excellent hearing. Lu Yanci was sitting inside, and the private room was so noisy, there was no way he could hear it.

Lu Yanci also slightly curled the corners of his lips, "I guessed."

Their eyes met, and their gazes were filled with mutual appreciation.

A cough, neither too loud nor too soft, shattered the fleeting moment of beauty.

"Alright, I know you two are both super brains, so stop showing off here."

Wen Yubai's cool voice rang out unhurriedly.

Everyone couldn't help but look at him.

It's really hard to imagine that such sarcastic words could come from Wen Yubai's cold and alluring mouth.

Lu Yanci did not refute, but simply smiled gently at Su Ruan.

The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat awkward.

A person began to emanate a chilling aura.

Lu Yanci, seemingly oblivious to the low-pressure center, took a bite of the Wagyu beef in front of him.

"If you want to invest, include me."

He was naturally saying this to Su Ruan.

Su Ruan stared in surprise.

She's here to pick up bargains, not to solicit investment.

Before she could even speak, Su Qingyao chimed in.

"Count me in too."

After these two started, Su Chen'an and Lu Shuangshuang also raised their hands, "Me too!"

Lin Mo looked around, his heart pounding, but unfortunately, all the money in his hands was controlled by his aunt.

Zhou Zhengyang was still calculating that he only had 2000 million yuan in funds, but his boss wanted to invest in such a large restaurant, and he was afraid that he would not be able to keep up with the subsequent funding.

But to their surprise, as soon as it started, one after another, they all wanted to give money to the boss.

Judging from the hierarchy at the table, the brother and sister who first mentioned wanting to invest must come from a family background even more powerful than the Su family of Yuncheng.

However, both of these companies implicitly respected his boss.

Zhou Zhengyang no longer wanted to guess what kind of background his young boss had.

He was worried that his boss didn't know anything and was just starting out on a whim, which would make him work himself to the bone and get nothing in return.

It seems that he has nothing to do with it at all; he's just a gofer.

He should just stick to his job and live a simple life.

Seeing that everyone else was following suit and wanted to invest, Lu Yanci secretly regretted that he should have waited until he got back to tell them privately.

But he was also afraid that someone else would bring it up first, which he would find even more unacceptable.

Fine, let's go together then.

It's good for multiple people to share the risk.

His gaze remained fixed on Su Ruan's expression, and seeing her go from initial astonishment to gradual acceptance, he knew in his heart that this investment was a sure thing.

"How about I invest 2000 million for a 10% stake?"

Five people present expressed their willingness to invest, which essentially set a price for Lu Yanci.

One person invests 2000 million, holding 10% of the shares, while the remaining 50% is left to Dingshiji.

Although Su Qingyao felt that leaving the remaining 50% to Dingshiji was a bit too much, she still went along with it.

"I will also invest 2000 million, taking a 10% stake."

Su Chen'an and Lu Shuangshuang both raised their hands, "I'll also contribute 2000 million."

Lin Mo really wanted to raise his hand at this moment.

But his aunt didn't reply to the message he just sent her.

A cold, clear voice rang out from the table, "Me, 2000 million."

It is Wen Yubai.

He then added, "We've just raised a total of 100 million. Su Ruan will be fully responsible for this project, holding a 20% stake. Does everyone have any objections?"
