In the elegant restaurant, there weren't many diners around. There was no one else in front, behind, or on either side, which facilitated conversation.
Hong Xiaomei chose this French restaurant, which opened not long ago in the city. It is located in a commercial area, usually frequented by the white-collar elite working nearby. Spending thousands here is not unfriendly to ordinary workers; therefore, it automatically filters out some lower-end customers.
"Miss Hong has excellent taste," Zhou Jingxian raised his cup. "I didn't even know there was such a classy place nearby."
Hong Xiaomei smiled, "I only knew of it through a friend's recommendation. I imagine someone of Mr. Zhou's caliber usually frequents high-end venues. Since I invited you to apologize, I had to find somewhere decent."
