The first sentence is a greeting.

  The elevator doors open with a "ding" sound!!

  Jiang Tiankuai, who had not been seen for many years, still looked radiant and wore a black tailcoat, with the demeanor of a gentleman. At the same time, Lawrence appeared in the elevator, followed by Dongying and two secretaries!

  "General Manager... Mr. Lawrence! The restaurant manager and staff all bowed their heads in joy, respectfully calling out to him. As it happens, Lawrence is the top sommelier of a major Asian hotel and the main person in charge of hosting grand banquets. He has often served over 50 world leaders and dignitaries, including countless national leaders and high officials, and is Chiang Tianlai's most favored person."

  Three years ago, Lawrence was forced to leave the hotel due to sudden loss of smell. Three years later, his physical condition and sense of smell gradually recovered. Jiang Tiankuai communicated with him multiple times and made a sincere invitation. He even bought three top French restaurants in the city and a mansion as a gift for Lawrence, so that he could reunite with his family in China and also hoped that he could train more excellent talents in the hotel industry in the future.

  Laurence has always been close to Jiang Tiankuai, and finally decided that after three years, before the re-launch of the red wine sommelier competition at the Grand Hotel, he would rush back to help Jiang Tiankuai!

  "Mr. Lawrence, it's been so many years since we last met, and you're still as radiant and spirited as ever, just like that aged red wine, the more it's savored, the more flavor it has!" Jiang Tiankui smiled slightly and gestured for Mr. Lawrence to exit the elevator, and the two of them walked together towards the Western-style restaurant!

  Lawrence smiled with joy and walked to the Western restaurant, saying to Jiang Tiankuai: "Chairman Jiang is a thousand miles away, I just left for three years, our Asian Hotel Group has reached new heights again, witnessing Chairman Jiang's ability to soar! Being able to cooperate with you again is my greatest honor."

  The two of them burst out laughing and stepped into the fashionable and luxurious Western restaurant. They saw that the golden velvet curtains by the window were only pulled down eight-tenths, ensuring that the light in the restaurant was softest. Several guests were sitting in front of a nearly fifty-square-meter lily pond in the center of the restaurant, sipping red wine while gazing at the vibrant lilies in front of them... Chen Manhong led Jiang Tianpeng and Laurence to the second-floor VIP lounge with a smile on her face, being cautious and careful.

  Jiang Tiankuai beckoned with his hand, knowing that Lawrence liked the sea view, so he personally selected a first-floor window seat with an endless sea view, where they would dine.

  Chen Manhong and Cao Yingjie immediately stood on either side of the dining table, their hands lightly touching the golden silk high-backed chairs on both sides. They gently pulled out the chair seats, and Jiang Tiankuai and Laurence simultaneously made polite gestures, beckoning each other to sit down. Only then did they simultaneously release the buttons, sitting in their positions. Shari immediately led the waiters to present white napkins folded into peony shapes, with edges embroidered with the finest Suzhou silk, resembling peony petals in a pale pink color, occasionally dotted with purple, as if bringing a hint of fragrance to the napkin, evoking an ancient Chinese proverb: "The person who gives flowers leaves their scent behind..."

  Two waiters immediately brought over three high-stemmed crystal glasses filled with hot water, iced water and cold water, carefully placing them beside the CEO and Lawrence.

  Lawrence, busy with the waiters, looked up at Chen Manhong and Cao Yingjie with a smile: "Manager Chen and Manager Cao haven't seen each other for three years, still one is bright and beautiful, the other is handsome and unparalleled. At that time, I thought you were a talented couple who could become the first couple in our Western restaurant."

  Chen Manhong and Cao Yingjie immediately blushed with a smile, seeing the president here, they didn't dare to make jokes, but since they had always been on good terms with Mr. Laurence, they said to him without any reserve: "Mr. Laurence, it's been many years, you still love to tease us."

  Jiang Tiankuai didn't make a sound, he just slightly raised his eyelids and looked at Cao Yingjie saying: "Manager Cao is a rare talent in the hotel industry, humbly serving as the manager of the Western restaurant. Being so carefree and content is indeed a rare occurrence... In life, one must learn to be content to truly enjoy it... Have you gotten used to these past three years?"

  This is Cao Yingjie entering the Grand Asia Hotel, where Jiang Tiankuai greets him with his first sentence.
