Codename:Phoenix 40 Holes And Tears

After two hours of walking around the hotel, the group decided to take a break and have lunch.

RenTao invited everyone to Oriental Europa's own restaurant, Golden Palate, the only area within the hotel that's already fully furnished and completely functional.

"Gentlemen, Oriental Europa's very own Golden Palate restaurant had prepared a simple feast for everyone to enjoy. Let us now direct ourselves to the restaurant's VIP area."

The city inspectors and Qin Sho nodded their heads and followed after RenTao.

Halfway through the restaurant, a hotel employee approached them and handed RenTao a note.

The note was from Chairman Kiang who already went ahead to meet with his granddaughter for lunch.

When the group reached the VIP area of Golden Palate, Qin Sho excused himself to make a phone call to his a.s.sistant.

Unfortunately, he was not able to reach Bai WuFei. So he just sent him a text message instructing him to cancel the reservation. He then went back to join the group.

After few moments, the dishes were served one after another and a blend of delicious aroma enveloped the VIP area of the restaurant.

While everyone's eating their meal, w.a.n.g Reiji kept on stealing glances on Qin Sho. She felt really bad for deceiving him. So she asked RenTao to instruct the head chef to prepare Sho's favorite chinese mango pudding.

"Good day, CEO Qin. Here's your chinese mango pudding courtesy of CEO w.a.n.g. Please enjoy."

Qin Sho was staring at the pudding with much delight. He did not expect to get a surprise from w.a.n.g Reiji. Thanks to the pudding, his mood lighten up and he was able to smile again. When w.a.n.g Reiji saw Qin Sho's reaction, she felt relieved.

Chairman Kiang had just arrived at LiYing Seafood Restaurant. The guy at the restaurant entrance recognized him right away and quickly escorted him to the table where his granddaughter was waiting for him.

"Grams!" Kiang LeiLei yelled as she stood up and waved at her grandfather.

The bright smile on Chairman Kiang's face vanished instantly at the sight of his granddaughter's choice of clothing. His lips twitched and his eyes narrowed.

What on Earth was his granddaughter wearing? Wasn't he giving her enough money to buy decent clothes to wear? She even has her own centurion card! Should he give her his own card as well?

Kiang LeiLei noticed the dismay look on her grandfather's face. She quickly put her one arm over his shoulders.

"Grams, what's with the long face?"

"Kiang LeiLei, be honest, am I not giving you enough money? Why are there holes and tears on your clothes? We can always buy you new ones, right?" Chairman Kiang argued.

Kiang LeiLei chuckled and hugged Chairman Kiang. Her grandfather's totally clueless about the latest trends in fas.h.i.+on that's why he's overreacting. But she can't blame him,afterall she's indeed wearing clothes with holes and tears.

Actually, Kiang LeiLei's wearing a designer brand black hollow out t-s.h.i.+rt underneath her electric pink double-breasted blazer paired with floral embroidered ripped skinny jeans and grey suede pumps.

In the eyes of people who knew fas.h.i.+on trends very well, they will totally agree that she nailed the distressed fas.h.i.+on style. However, in the eyes of her grandfather she's just wearing clothes with holes and tears.

"Grams, this is the latest fas.h.i.+on trend, this is called distressed fas.h.i.+on. Even hollywood celebrities are into this kind of clothing style." Kiang LeiLei explained while wearing her best smile.

Chairman Kiang furrowed his eyebrows and stared at his granddaughter with disbelief.

"You called that fas.h.i.+on? Wearing clothes with holes and tears is a fas.h.i.+on style now?" Chairman Kiang rolled his eyes and sighed loudly.

"Well, whatever. As long as my dearest princess is happy, I have nothing more to say." The old man added as he threw his hands up in the air.

"You're the best. grams!" Kiang LeiLei said as she kissed her grandfather's cheeks.

Chairman Kiang patted his granddaughter's head before they sat down to wait for the food Kiang LeiLei ordered for them.

They were already eating when Chairman Kiang asked about his granddaughter's plan for the next school year.

"Are you still planning to change schools?" Chairman Kiang asked while carefully slicing his grilled fish steaks.

"Yes, grams. I want to transfer to Jicheng." Kiang LeiLei answered before she took a sip of her red iced tea.
