59: Chapter 59 Qiao Li 59: Chapter 59 Qiao Li The man was tall and handsome, with a gentle look in his eyes that made the potential intimidation of his stature dissolve completely.

As he approached, Su Lu got a clear view of his face and was momentarily stunned.

“Qiao Li?”

“Don’t be so informal,” Qiao Li said with a smile, “Call me ‘Brother’.”

Qiao Li was an old classmate of Su Zhe, who had been reclusive and not so easy to get along with since childhood because of poor health.

But Qiao Li was warm and cheerful, one of the few people who could actually hang out with Su Zhe.

Strictly speaking, it was fine for Su Lu to call Qiao Li ‘Brother’.

Su Zhe: “Enough, she’s got a stomachache, let’s go inside.”

The decor in Lan Restaurant was upscale and tasteful.

They had private rooms, but the floor-to-ceiling windows in the main hall offered a view of little bridges and flowing water pavilions outside, which was a quieter environment than a private room could provide.

The table they had reserved was next to one of the floor-to-ceiling windows, tucked behind a bamboo screen.

Su Lu, having known Qiao Li for a long time as well, wasn’t so reserved in his company.

Once seated.

Qiao Li: “How did you end up with a stomachache?”

Qiao Li was considerate and caring.

He poured her some hot tea as he inquired with concern.

“Such a big person now, and still gets a stomachache from overeating ice cream,” Su Zhe said with a slight smile, holding a cup.

Su Lu felt a bit embarrassed, “I didn’t eat that much.”

Seeing Su Zhe still smiling, Su Lu emphasized, “I really didn’t eat much!”

“Alright, alright,” Qiao Li interjected peacemakingly, “If you say you didn’t eat much, then you didn’t.

Should I order now?”

“Sure,” Su Zhe nodded.

Qiao Li scanned the QR code on the table, ordered some light dishes, and even specifically chose a small jar of stomach-nourishing coix seed and yam porridge for Su Lu.

“You’re quite the schmoozer,” Su Zhe commented.

Qiao Li took no offense and chuckled, “Well, shouldn’t I schmooze properly?” He looked at Su Lu, “Right, Mr.

Su?”
