Chapter 149 People Attending the Dinner Party
Jiude Mai is not a fundamentalist. As a hard-working frontline worker who travels around the world all year round, Jiude Mai is quite tolerant of food from all over the world.

Of course, these do not include canned herrings in Northern Europe, stargazing in Britain, and street masala cuisine in another ancient Eastern country.

She originally thought that the omelette rice made by Lu Mingfei was just copied from an anime, but she didn't expect the taste to be quite Tokyo style.

"Where did you learn to cook?"

Mai Shude, who didn't want to admit that the omelette rice was delicious, asked the question somewhat unconvinced.

"Didn't Xia Mi say that?" Lu Mingfei said, "My dad taught me in Hawaii."

If you don't want to say it, just don't say it.

Jiude Mai puffed out one cheek and put another spoonful of rice into her mouth unhappily.

It’s obviously just Lu Mingfei…

In fact, Lu Mingfei's cooking skills were all learned during the three years he lived in the Japanese light novel world. It wasn't that Lu Mingfei wanted to learn it, but all high schools in Japan had cooking classes.

In addition, cooking is required every now and then in daily life, so Lu Mingfei naturally learned several authentic hometown dishes.

Of course, it’s just the same old stuff.

Although Mai's mood and physical strength recovered a little after eating, she had no intention of helping Lu Mingfei clean up.

After Lu Mingfei finished washing the dishes and came out of the kitchen, Jiude Mai, who was hanging upside down doing yoga, suddenly asked:
"By the way, do you have any money on you?"

"money?"

As for money, Lu Mingfei did have a few tens of thousands of yuan, but the bulk of it was going to be used to buy the WCG finals in November.

"How much do you want?"

"It's not much, a few hundred dollars will be fine, I'll pay you double when the time comes." Jiude Mai said, "Please buy me a cheap knockoff phone and a phone card, I need to contact someone."

Although the injuries on his body should not be serious, his condition has not returned to its peak after all. He has no equipment on him, and even the two knives he carried with him were left in the Nibelungen.

To be on the safe side, Jiude Mai chose to stay at Lu Mingfei's house temporarily. With Lu Mingfei here, no matter what, the influence of Nibelungen on reality would not reach here.

"so."

Lu Mingfei remembered that Jiude Mai did ask him if he had a mobile phone yesterday, but the Nokia N73 that the little goddess gave him was soaked in water.

Although I still have an N73 that Liu Miaomiao gave me, the SIM card in that phone was damaged by water. I was planning to apply for a new one when I have time.

"Are you in a hurry?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"Don't worry." Jude Mai said, "It will be done within this week."

I haven't been able to contact you for two days. I guess Potato Chip Girl is probably getting very anxious in the capital right now.

No, maybe this guy has completely forgotten about contacting me every day. He starts watching Korean dramas day and night.

Anyway, it's rare to have a few days off, so I'll call Potato Chips back after I've rested for a few days.

Jiude Mai thought very heartlessly, not knowing that Su Enxi was really anxious to find her at this moment.

The Black Prince International Financial Center is the most lively area in CBD. From the outside, it looks like a giant tower covered with black crystal glass, just like the Tower of Babylon built to heaven in mythology.

As a major taxpayer in the city and a key supported enterprise, the boss of the Black Prince Group is a prominent figure whose bust often appears on the front page of the evening paper. He is well-connected in both the underworld and the white world, and photos of the boss with various powerful figures are hung in the company's entrance hall.

Yet, such a prominent figure was nervously rubbing his hands in the chairman's office on the top floor. The chairman's seat that should have belonged to him was occupied by a pretty yet stern young woman.

On that rather expensive all-mahogany boss desk, there was an opened bag of... Lays potato chips?
Su Enxi was wearing a very capable OL outfit, a pair of Cartier rimless glasses, and crossed her legs. Her black high heels swayed with the movement of her legs. She looked down at Boss Shao like a female general.

"Can't find it?" Su Enxi frowned. "What did you promise me yesterday? You said, 'As long as this person is still in this city, you will dig deep to find him for me.' Now you tell me you can't find him?"

"That's what I said."

Boss Shao wiped the sweat off his face nervously.

"But I have already mobilized all the connections I can, and I can only confirm that the lady disappeared near a black Internet cafe in the old city. After that, she could not be found in any of the surrounding videos. It was as if she had evaporated from the face of the earth."

"Nonsense, if it's just a video, don't I know how to do it? I asked you to come here to find the way to the underworld."

"Yes Yes Yes……"

The other person might be less than half his age, but Boss Shao felt an inexplicable pressure from this beautiful girl in front of him. This pressure was not only because she was the personal secretary of the largest shareholder behind the Black Prince Group, but also because she had a majestic aura that made people obey her orders unconsciously.

The scene fell silent. Boss Shao lowered his head, trying to guess what the girl was thinking at the moment, just like an ancient minister guessing the emperor's will. He was struggling over whether he should just stand there or find an excuse to get away, and if he did, what excuse would be best.

At this moment, there was a gentle knock on the office door. Boss Shao turned around subconsciously and saw his beautiful secretary carefully peeking out half of her face from the crack of the door.

"Um, Mr. Shao..."

The female secretary stammered, speaking hesitantly as she usually did when they were alone together, "Mr. Cheng's plane will arrive soon..."

Boss Shao's eyes lit up, thinking that this was a good time to find an excuse to leave, but he put on an angry look:

"Do you understand the rules? What's so great about such a small matter? Didn't you see I was talking to Miss Su?"

"But you had an appointment to pick up Mr. Cheng at the airport tonight..."

After being scolded by Boss Shao, the female secretary pursed her lips in grievance, thinking that you don't usually treat me like this. Then her eyes unconsciously turned to Su Enxi sitting in the boss's chair, wondering who this woman was and why Boss Shao would blame her for her.

"Mr. Cheng?" Su Enxi asked with a hint of curiosity in her tone, "Which Mr. Cheng?"

"That's Mr. Cheng."

Boss Shao respectfully announced the name of a movie star. "The group invested in his latest movie. He will hold a premiere here later. There will also be a dinner after the premiere. The company needs a representative to attend."

"Oh." Su Enxi knew this name. Even the boss liked him very much and collected several of his Blu-ray discs, such as "Plan B", "Express Delivery", "Police Story" and so on.

"He's arriving tonight?"

"Yes, it should be here in an hour," the secretary said quickly.

Su Enxi nodded and waved her hand, "Then you go to the airport first. After all, this matter is related to the reputation of the group."

Anyway, with Boss Shao's connections, there won't be anything to find out.

Mai would disappear in plain sight. Even if she was not involved in the Nibelung, she would have been involved in some extraordinary unexpected events.

Ordinary people are powerless to interfere in the world of mixed-bloods.

Although Su Enxi said that she was only here to collect the body of Jiude Mai, in her heart she still hoped to find Mai alive and well.

As long as she can find it, I’ll even let her give up potato chips for a day!
Of course, if she is asked to abstain for two days, that's fine.

"Okay okay."

Boss Shao bowed his head repeatedly, thinking that the female secretary came at the right time. After this matter was over, he would definitely reward her well.

Boss Shao turned around angrily and was about to go out when Su Enxi's voice immediately came from behind him.

"correct."

Boss Shao stopped and turned back with a smile: "Do you have any other instructions?"

Su Enxi curled her lips.

Although she felt that it was meaningless for Boss Shao to get involved in this matter, she still felt a little uncomfortable when she saw Boss Shao flirting with the beautiful female secretary.

"The dinner with Mr. Cheng...is it on Saturday, right?" Su Enxi asked while rubbing her temple.

Boss Shao was stunned, not knowing why Su Enxi brought up this matter.

"Yes." He answered cautiously.

"You don't have to go to the dinner on Saturday. Help me find the person I want you to find in the next few days." Su Enxi said lightly.

Boss Shao was stunned: "Then the group will not attend the dinner on Saturday?"

"You don't have to go." Su Enxi said, "For a celebration banquet like this, can't the group just send a representative?"

"Who are you going to send?"

"Don't worry about this matter. I will inform you when the time comes."

Su Enxi picked up a piece of potato chips and thought that Chenglong’s autographed photo and autographed DVD should be able to get her a lot of rewards from the boss, right?
