Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Zhai Yunsheng, Yu Xi, and Jian Yiling arrived at a fancy restaurant that was owned by the Yu family.

Before their arrival, Yu Xi had already asked the restaurant manager in advance to reserve a deluxe room for them.

Although there were only three of them, they were still planning to have a whole table of food.

Coincidentally, Qin Shixuan was also planning to eat at this restaurant. After he learned that Zhai Yunsheng was also here, Qin Shixuan came to pay his respects to Zhai Yunsheng. He headed over to the private deluxe room that was booked by Yu Xi.

Although the relationship between the Qin family and the Zhai family was not considered good or bad, they were both the most prestigious families in the capital. Both families had a solid foundation.

Since they were eating at the same restaurant, Qin Shixuan couldn’t have pretended to not see Zhai Yunsheng.

As Qin Shuan was only a member of the Qin family, his social standing was far lower than Zhai Yunsheng.

As a result, it only made sense for him to go and greet Zhai Yunsheng.

When Qin Shixuan entered the private room, there was only Zhai Yunsheng and Yu Xi in the compartment.

Jian Yiling had left for the kitchen. Once again, she was planning to grill mushrooms for Zhai Yunsheng. As the restaurant was owned by the Yu family, Yu Xi requested the chefs to help Jian Yiling prepare the food.

“Master Sheng, what a pleasant surprise. I never thought I’d see you at this place,” Qin Shixuan started. Although he was older than Zhai Yunsheng, the way he spoke to him was still respectful and courteous.

Qin Shixuan was clear about the difference in their social status.

“Hello, Mr. Qin. What did you come to Hengyuan City for? Did you organize a chemistry competition to recruit talent? Isn’t that age group a little too young?” Zhai Yunsheng asked. Although he was speaking in a relaxed manner, the look in his eyes towards Qin Shixuan was extraordinarily sharp.

Although Zhai Yunsheng looked like a person who doesn’t really do anything with his life, in reality, there was nothing that escaped his eyes.

He knew everything that he needed to know.

“I’m the head of the Yao Li Chemistry and Advanced Materials Research Institution. It’s my job to find talented individuals to join our organization,” Qin Shixuan replied.

“Then, have you found any talented individuals?”

“I actually have. There’s a young girl who looks timid and weak. However, her knowledge and understanding of chemistry have surpassed her peers by a wide margin. After I had a face-to-face conversation with her, I experienced an even greater shock.”

Whilst Qin Shixuan was speaking, Jian Yiling had entered the room. She was carrying a plate of food into the private room.

When Qin Shixuan turned around, he saw the person that he was just talking about.

What was this situation?

There was a surprised expression on Qin Shixuan’s face.

Why was the chemistry genius that he was talking about in the same compartment as Zhai Yunsheng?

Zhai Yunsheng was known to be difficult to deal with. Furthermore, there were very few people that Zhai Yunsheng found to be agreeable.

And finally, Zhai Yunsheng didn’t like interacting with women. No matter how hard the Zhai family tried, he refused to have a girlfriend. He even refused to make normal female friends.

And for Jian Yiling to be close to Zhai Yunsheng... This was such a strange situation. Did the sun rise from the west today?

“Jian Yiling, I never thought that I’d see you here,” Qin Shixuan said. He quickly recovered from his shock and greeted Jian Yiling with a smile.

Despite her young age, Qin Shixuan never showed any disrespect to Jian Yiling.

Jian Yiling nodded politely to Qin Shixuan before she walked straight up to Zhai Yunsheng. Then, she placed down the plate of steaming food in front of him.

There were all sorts of tidbits on the plate. Each type of food only had a small quantity, however, there were many different types.

Although there were a lot of mushrooms, there were also plenty of other tidbits.
