Not long after, all the dishes were served.
The table was laden with a sumptuous spread, its aroma alone enough to make one's mouth water.
However, the young lady of the Bai family had still not arrived, which left Wu Tian feeling quite perplexed. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
He couldn't help but ask, "Elder Bai, what's going on? The food is all here, why hasn't she arrived yet?"
Elder Bai also seemed a bit puzzled. He replied, "My apologies, Mr. Wu. I'm not sure what our young lady intends. I'll go and check."
With that, Elder Bai went to see what the situation was.
After a while, Elder Bai returned, but he was still alone. However, he was holding a tablet computer.
He propped the tablet up on the table, angled the camera towards Wu Tian, and said, "Mr. Wu, let's just have dinner like this today."
"You mean..." Elder Bai's actions left Wu Tian feeling very confused.
Elder Bai chuckled sheepishly and said, "It's like this, Mr. Wu. I asked our young lady, but she still seems reluctant to come out, so she arranged for me to use this method."
"This tablet is now connected to the young lady's end. Although she's not on camera, she can see you, so let's communicate this way."
This turn of events caught Wu Tian completely off guard, and his brow furrowed slightly.
He no longer cared about whether she was the young lady of the Tianbao Group. He spoke directly and impolitely, "Elder Bai, this approach, how should I put it, isn't quite appropriate, is it?"
"This meal today was originally an invitation from your young lady."
"By rights, your young lady should be the one to appear, shouldn't she?"
"But now you're using this method to have dinner with me. What is this supposed to be? Don't you think this is rather disrespectful?"
Wu Tian was genuinely annoyed as he spoke.
What was this all about? Were they playing with him?
Who was this person, that they were so afraid to show their face?
Elder Bai could see Wu Tian's anger and quickly said, "Mr. Wu, please don't be angry. Our young lady is watching you!"
Wu Tian said coldly, "What if she's watching me? She's not giving me face, so why should I give her face?"
Hearing this, the beautiful waitresses were stunned.
After all, this area was currently Tianbao Group's territory!
Wu Tian was speaking to the eldest daughter of the Tianbao Group, yet he dared to adopt such an attitude?
What they didn't know was that Wu Tian had always been this way.
As long as you didn't respect him, no matter who you were, even if you were the King of Heaven, he wouldn't give you face.
This situation left Elder Bai unsure of how to respond.
At this moment, a somewhat strange voice came from the tablet, "Hello Wu Tian, please don't be angry yet, okay?"
Wu Tian immediately knew the other party was using a voice changer, which only made him more annoyed.
Not showing her face, and altering her voice – what did this mean? Wasn't this just messing with him?
He looked at the pitch-black screen of the tablet and said coldly, "Who exactly are you? You invite me for a meal, so invite me. But why are you doing all these ridiculous things?"
The voice on the other end replied apologetically, "I'm truly sorry. I originally wanted to meet you."
"But I feel that meeting now isn't quite appropriate, so let's communicate this way for now?"
"I know the dishes you like to eat, and as you can see, many of these dishes are prepared according to your taste. So please, try them first."
Wu Tian had no appetite anymore. He said, "Eat? Eat what? You want me to eat alone facing a tablet?"
"And don't act like you know me so well."
"Who exactly are you? What is it you want to achieve by staging this scene?"
The voice on the other end seemed to hesitate for a moment, then continued, "Wu Tian, please believe me, I would never harm you. I apologize for this, can you forgive me?"
"Forgive you?" Wu Tian snorted coldly. "Have you done anything that warrants my forgiveness?"
"Tell me who you are first. If you can't even do that, then we have nothing more to say."
The voice seemed to hesitate again, but ultimately denied it, "No, Wu Tian, I cannot reveal my identity to you yet. So I cannot fulfill this request."
Wu Tian's anger surged to his head.
He said furiously, "Since you're not prepared for anything, why did you ask me to come for dinner? What were you doing before?"
The voice on the other end seemed startled by Wu Tian's tone and sounded somewhat timid, "This..."
"Wu Tian, I genuinely wanted to see you at first, but then I realized it wasn't possible yet, so..."
Wu Tian found the other party's words quite amusing.
He said indifferently, "You are truly an interesting person. You say you genuinely wanted to see me, but are we that close?"
"I don't know you at all, and I can't understand anything you're doing!"
"Yes, you did help me, but if you don't even dare to show your face, how can anyone know what your intentions are?"
Perhaps Wu Tian's words were a bit too much, as Elder Bai could no longer stand it.
He immediately said, "Mr. Wu, please watch your words."
"Regardless, this is still the young lady of our Tianbao Group. Don't you think your attitude is rather poor?"
Wu Tian gave Elder Bai no quarter and said directly, "Attitude? Attitude is mutual. How she treats me, is how I will treat her!"
"Since she doesn't respect me, then I don't see any need to respect her."
"This meal ends here today. If you want to eat, then eat. I won't be accompanying you!"
"Bye."
With that, Wu Tian stood up and prepared to leave.
"Wu Tian, wait! Please wait a moment!" An urgent voice came from the tablet.
But Wu Tian was in a fit of rage and paid no mind, leaving directly.
Seeing this, Elder Bai's expression became even more somber. He asked in a low voice, "Young lady, what should we do now? Should I stop him?"
The voice from the tablet remained silent for a long time before finally saying, "I didn't expect him to get so angry, but it's all my fault for letting things turn out this way."
Elder Bai said, "Young lady, it's not your fault. You have your own difficulties, so please don't blame yourself."
The voice on the other end sighed and said, "Alright, Elder Bai, please don't say that. Pack everything up, and then come over."
Elder Bai nodded, let out a slight sigh, arranged for people to clear the tables, chairs, and food, and then went to find someone.
