Chapter 534
"That''s not what I meant. There has been a misunderstanding between Tracey and me, but now I
know that Tracey is a good girl." Aydan didn''t want to piss Johan off again.
"You should make yourself clear. My granddaughter is the best." Johan looked proud.
There was merryughter during the dinner. It snowed heavily outside while it was as warm as
spring inside the house.
International Airport.
The international flight Candy took arrived when it was half-past eight. Set and Lucy quickly came
up to greet Candy.
Candy was tall. She wore sunsses and a ck mask. And she kept this trip a secret to prevent
her fans from greeting her at the airport.
"Hello, Candy. I''m from Sun..." Set introduced herself with a serious look.
Lucy was more rxed and lively, "Candy, you must be tired after the long flight. I made a special
reservation at Majestic. Let''s go have some food."
Lucy took all the credits by one sentence, and she mentioned Majestic on purpose.
Majestic was the best western restaurant in City A for its style and cooking level. And Set was
stunned at what Lucy said. Before their departure to the airport, Set and Lucy had a discussion
about the dinner tonight.
For Candy had lived abroad for a long time, Set proposed that they should book a Chinese
restaurant, and Lucy didn''t object to this idea.
But now Lucy told Candy about this Majestic thing, which Set waspletely in the dark until
now. ''What a sly woman!'' Set couldn''t helpmenting.
Shooting a nce at the woman who took the liberty to hold her arm, Candy said, "I don''t like the
touches from others."
"I''m sorry." Lucy was anxious to win favor with Candy, but the candor of Candy made her go for
wool and came home shorn.
"I don''t like western food." Candy was a sophisticate who had met all kinds of persons, and she
knew immediately that Lucy was a smart alec.
A wise man didn''t like a smart alec, so Candy preferred Set, who seemed serious, even dull
compared with Lucy.
"Miss Candy, what about Chinese food? I made a reservation in a Sichuan restaurant, which is of
high opinion. If you don''t like it, there are still other choices. The peak hour for dinner is over, and
you could take your time to make a decision."
Set sounded sincere, as there was respect and politeness in her tone.
"Szechuan cuisine? I love it! Let''s go, right now." Candy adopted Set''s suggestion.
There was no mention of Szechuan cuisine on Candy''s profile, but Set inferred from the
information that Candy like spicy that Szechuan cuisine would suit her taste.
Candy should have tried enough western dishes in those grand restaurants during her stay abroad.
Only a smart aleck like Lucy could talk about style before a superstar like Candy.
Set might not be so good at ttering as Lucy was, but she was thoughtful and would spend time
on her work.
She proposed Chinese food under deliberations, but Lucy was anxious to impress Candy and made
a fool of herself.
"Well, that restaurant is at most ten minutes away from the airport," Set said.
"OK. What''s your name?" Candy asked with an impression that Set was more reliable.
"I am Set Shen, Miss Candy. You can call me Set." Set answered in a polite and respectful
manner, which people seldom felt disgusted.
"Got you."
"Candy, I am Lucy." Feeling bad about being ignored, Lucy introduced herself quickly.
"I''m not interested in you. By the way, I don''t like smart alecs." Candy shot a cold nce at Lucy
and led the way.
Lucy felt awkward, as if being poured over with a basin of cold water.
Candy was happy during the dinner, "I love this traditional Szechuan cuisine! I haven''t had them for
many years, as the cuisine abroad is improved to suit the taste of the locals."
"Miss Candy, you speak Chinese well. Have you ever lived in China before?" Set asked.
"Well, I grew up in China. My grandmother is a southerner, good at home-cooked dishes. The
dishes you ordered today remind me of my grandmother."
There were some tips on ordering dishes. Lucy ordered those expensive and novel dishes, while
Set chose home- cooked ones.
Set did her job to know that Candy once lived in China; therefore, Set assumed that Candy
would miss those tastes in her childhood after all these years abroad.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.
So Set ordered home-cooked dishes. And Candy didn''t try those dishes ordered by Lucy.
"Now I see. You sound like a local, though you stay abroad for so many years."
"Well, I live abroad for work all these years, and I love thisnd the most." Candy and Set hit it off.
Lucy was eager to join their conversations, but only to make things bad or be ignored.
Lucy was unhappy. Set and Candy still chatted happily on the way to the hotel.
"Miss Candy, take a break. You may still need time to adapt the life here. I live next door. Come to
me directly if you have any problems." Set sent Candy to her room.
"OK, good night, see you tomorrow." Candy was candid enough to show her mood on her face
directly.
It was obvious that she disliked Lucy and favored Set; that was, she liked sincerity and hated
hypocrisy.
Set and Lucy lived in the presidential suite next door. It was their first time to live in a luxury suite
like this, though they were here to serve Candy.
Lucy was so angry that this luxury suite failed to improve her mood.
"Lucy, remember that we are at work. Don''t be silly again, or we will bear all the consequences if
Candy feels offended." Set warned.
