Chapter 116: Withheld Number



Chapter 116: Withheld Number

"What\'s your instruction, Howard?" the caller named Donald asked again. From his tone, there was a hint of urgency.

"Go back to Horusian. Keep waiting until there\'s a new order for you. Help me to monitor Timo while you\'re there, please." Howard says. It seems that something is going on in between.

"Noted. How\'s your work there at Xiyang City? Must the company purposely send you there just to handle mere paperwork?" Donald asked. His tone was much better. But from the way they talked, it was evident that they knew each other before Horus Eye was established.

"Of course, there\'s a reason I must be here. Don\'t question the company\'s decision. All you need to do is make sure that you do what you\'re ordered. Other than that, treat it as nothing happened." Howard continued.

"Understood. I\'m cutting the line." Donald said.

"Good luck," Howard said.

\'…\'

\'…\'

It seems that Donald\'s meaning of cutting the line was to destroy the phone used to communicate with Howard. Right now, he was standing at the edge of a ship filled with containers as its cargo.

"What is his order?" Dagger climbed to where Giant or Howard Mckenzie stands after he was done with the phone call.

"Back to Horusian and wait for his order. The eye will shut and rest for now and wait for another prophecy." Giant said before turning around and left.

"Going back to Horusian? What should we do after getting back there? Training? Visiting brothels? Or deliver drugs?" Dagger chuckled. From the look of it, he was expecting something else.

"Robert, You\'re here again. who do we have here today?" the old lady asked when she saw them coming into the peaceful restaurant. Just like before, there were just two to three tables of guests at this time.

I\'m back with the guest I brought that day. There\'ll. be three of us today for lunch." answered Robert.

"Come in! Yoojin, get the cutleries for a table of three!" the old lady shouted for her granddaughter\'s attention and led Zhang Qin Feng to their seats.

This time, they\'re given a much more spacious table at a corner as Zhang Qin Feng and Alice Moon were dressed professionally today.

"Shall I make something delicious for your table today?" the old lady offered before taking her returning back to the kitchen. From the look of her face, she\'s in the mood to bring out her secret dishes that hardly have people knew how to enjoy it.

Minutes later, Yoojin comes to the table with a tray of cutleries for three diners.

"Uncle Robert." the moody Yoojin turned happier when she noticed the client was not someone else but Robert. From the look of it, the two of them were more than just knowing each other.

The two continued to speak while Zhang Qin Feng was talking with Alice Moon. Occasionally, Zhang Qin Feng took a sneak peek at them. It seems that Robert and Yoojin had quite a close relationship. At the very least, it was more than just uncle and niece.

"You seems to know her very well." Zhang Qin Feng took a sip of the tea served on the table. It was refreshing to have a mouthful of cold tea after speaking for some time.

"Ah, I didn\'t say more than that, correct? Actually, that girl\'s mother was my younger cousin. Her father was a colleague of mine and Alice while were still a staff inside the construction firm." Robert scratched his head embarrassedly as he explained it to Zhang Qin Feng.

"Yes. This guy Robert is quite close to that family, to the point he\'s calling the lady \'mother\' whenever he joined them on the weekend. It\'s been three years since we\'ve quit the company and come out working on our own career, correct?" Alice Moon smiled after adding something into their conversation.

They continue to joke until Yoojin coming out with two starter platters with some deep-fry finger dishes, such as octopus tentacles in sticky soy sauce. There are also some other lighter side dishes following after the two platters, and it\'s mainly vegetables marinated or mixed with some sauce such as garlic and mayonnaise.

Then, they were given a bowl of warm soup to clean their palette before the main dishes came to the table.

A clay pot with a whole chicken made into broth was just one of the few signature dishes of the old lady. It was followed by some other meat dishes. There\'s even a charcoal grill placed by the side of the table to cook the marinated beef right before them.

"It smells so nice," said Zhang Qin Feng.

"True. Even after coming here so many times, I am still finding the food special." Alice Moon said.

The discussion continued while the three enjoyed the meal presented on the table. Of course, the enjoyable part of having food in the middle of a meeting was not because it was a common practice, but because it can break the ice between coworkers.

It might seem unprofessional, but the end result was much better, depending on the scale of the project.

At the end of the dinner, they ordered a few bottles of beer as well. Of course, Robert only had half a bottle as he was the driver for the two today. The discussion finally ended when Robert fetched both of them back to the Grand Season Hotel\'s lobby.

"Thank you, Ms. Alice. I had a great time speaking with you today." Zhang Qin Feng exchanged a handshake with Alice Moon after taking up half of the day of her precious time. But the result was more than what he expected.

"I will be in touch with you soon after I get back to do some research on the topic you\'re interested. I hope that our upcoming meeting will be just as interesting as today." Alice Moon said.

"It will be. I have the confidence that you\'re the suitable person to get me to the correct way on starting this business." Zhang Qin Feng smiled at her in return.

"Then… See you again soon. Thank you for your time today, Mr. Zhang." Alice Moon excused herself. But before Zhang Qin Feng managed to took a breather after a half a day-long discussion, he had a phone call from a withheld number.

"Hello?" Zhang Qin Feng answered the call after the third ring.
