Chapter 171: Chapter 171 Black Truffle Steak
Li Lanxue and Shen Wenjun didn't say anything more and quickly made their way to the second-floor hall.
This time, Li Lanxue had deliberately chosen the second floor of the hotel for the gathering. Above the second floor was a very large club that could accommodate several hundred people, which was extremely spacious and luxurious.
There were also quite a few luxury decorations within, perfect for taking photos.
Some of the female classmates were very fond of such exquisite things, and they would gather around to take photos.
In the center, tables were set up for the banquet, and there were only a few dozen classmates. However, some people would bring their partners, which added up to about a hundred people.
But the banquet hall was indeed a bit too large, so she had arranged the banquet in a buffet style this time.
Many students really enjoyed this sort of atmosphere, grabbing whatever they liked!
In this respect, many students were satisfied, having quietly complimented Li Lanxue.
Although Li Lanxue didn't show it, her eyes were filled with pride. Her dad was the president of a listed company, and she could easily afford this expense.
Most of the classmates had also arrived, and at that moment, Qin Xiaoxu came over with Lin Jie.
Han Xuewei also entered holding Lin Yi's hand. Lin Yi was very tall, and his handsome appearance instantly attracted many gazes.
Han Xuewei became the center of attention. She wore a simple and elegant long dress.
It was a very common outfit, but on her, it exuded a unique charm, and everyone in the room had their eyes fixated on her.
The school beauty was indeed the school beauty; even casually dressed, she could outshine everyone!
What's more, people were surprised by Lin Yi at her side. Lin Yi's looks were also extremely charming, and among all the male classmates, he was clearly the most outstanding one.
At this moment, everybody's eyes were on Han Xuewei.
Even some of the female classmates couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
"Goodness! Our school beauty is really something else, standing out with her aura!"
"Of course, and her husband is also good-looking. I initially thought she'd marry someone average-looking, but her husband is quite the catch!"
"Hey! You guys don't know? I heard her husband was from our school and in the same grade, but I had never seen him before. Who knew he was such a hunk!"
"Oh, you guys are unaware of their low profile, I heard they took a break from school a while back to go have a baby!"
"Yeah, I've heard those little babies are gorgeous. The school forum went crazy over it, don't you know?"
"That forum's been shut down a long time ago, no idea which big shot did it, managing to close the forum and have all the photos taken down. But I've still heard some whispers and rumors!"
"They had their wedding ceremony not long ago, and we weren't there."
"That's so mysterious, but look at her husband, so dashing. What do you think he does for a living?" "Probably in the same line of business as Han Xuewei's family, I guess. All I know is that Han Xuewei's family is very wealthy."
The crowd was abuzz with speculation, admiring Han Xuewei's beautiful look, with many girls calling Han Xuewei the epitome of a modern-day 'rich and beautiful'!
"I heard her dad opened a hotel near the Wenqu Building. The food there is really excellent and great value for money. I visited their place once, and their attitude toward people and customers is really good. It's truly a cultivated family; whatever they do is very high-level..."
Everyone was talking about it, their conversation moving from Han Xuewei's life at university to her personal family background.
It all boiled down to envy, and at that moment, Qin Xiaoxu saw Han Xuewei and her group approaching and couldn't help but reveal an excited expression, beckoning them over.
Han Xuewei and Lin Yi looked up and saw Qin Xiaoxu and immediately headed towards her.
Qin Xiaoxu was very surprised. She picked up her purse and said right away, "The place just got so crowded, but luckily I was quick and put my purse here, snagging two good spots!"
"This is right in the middle, I think sitting here we will definitely get the tastiest food!"
As Qin Xiaoxu spoke, she happily reached for Han Xuewei's hand.
Han Xuewei sat down beside her and, seeing the food piled up in front of her, couldn't help but speak, "You girl, can you think of anything other than eating? Look at you go, Lin Jie is even watching from the side."
As Han Xuewei spoke, Lin Jie felt somewhat embarrassed.
But when Qin Xiaoxu lifted her head to look at Lin Jie, she showed a disdainful expression, "Let him watch, if he doesn't want to eat, that's his problem!"
Qin Xiaoxu really didn't care about maintaining a girlish image at all, Lin Jie felt awkward watching her behave like this.
Han Xuewei just watched the two of them, shaking her head at their attitude of disdain for one another.
These two were obviously the most well-matched, yet both behaved so childishly.
At that moment, Lin Yi tidied up the things on the table and then said, "Wife, what would you like to eat? I'll go get it for you."
Lin Yi was indeed very considerate, his subtle actions taking great care of Han Xuewei.
When Han Xuewei heard this, she nodded and said, "Husband, I want to eat pasta and steak!
Han Xuewei had hardly eaten anything today and was hungry by now, with a hearty appetite.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi turned back to look forward, where the steak from this hotel was quite famous, and since Li Lanxue offered to treat, many female students were fond of steak, so a long queue had already formed at the front.
Lin Yi frowned at the sight of the line ahead.
Queuing up seemed too troublesome, it would probably be better to just order directly from the restaurant.
"Wait a bit, wife, I'll order for you now, the line over there is too long, I think it will be faster if I order a steak to be delivered!"
Since there were so many people queuing for steak, Lin Yi didn't mind queuing, but those steaks were almost all synthetic.
In a place like this, the hotel might only splurge on a few hundred yuan for a steak. If the prices were too high, it would become a lavish expense for the numerous guests, and sales wouldn't hold up.
After all, even though there are customers for high-priced steaks, the general public still leans towards more affordable dining.
So Lin Yi waved over a waiter right away, asked for a menu, and spotted the most expensive steak, priced nearly at three thousand yuan, named the Black Truffle Steak.
That was the truly authentic steak in the restaurant, and Lin Yi ordered one right away.
At that moment, Qin Xiaoxu, with her mouth still full of pasta, raised her eyebrows and said, "Then I want one too… I want one too!"
Hearing this, Han Xuewei smiled slightly and said, "Then let's order two."
