Chapter 321: Chapter 207: Acting Tough and Running Into Trouble, He Xinzhu’s Favorability Soars

December 31st, the last day of 2023.

In the morning, after dropping Sun Yi at the laboratory, Wu Wei drove to the gym.

After a vigorous workout, Wu Wei took a shower, changed into clean and comfortable clothes, and headed to a nearby upscale steakhouse for lunch.

Steak is rich in protein, satisfying both his taste buds and muscle growth needs, perfectly aligning with his requirements.

However, today was the second day of the New Year holiday, and it was lunchtime peak; a long queue had formed at the entrance.

Wu Wei certainly wasn’t going to waste time waiting in line, ready to use his money power.

Just then, a man and a woman walked up next to him, peering into the restaurant.

The man looked about thirty, dressed in a well-fitted dark suit, his hair meticulously styled, with a shiny watch on his wrist, exuding an intentionally crafted elite vibe.

"I didn’t expect this place to be so busy. Despite the high prices, there’s still a queue. If I had known, we would have come earlier."

He turned to the woman beside him and said, "But since we’re here, let’s wait a bit. I heard their steak is really high quality."

"Forget it."

The woman shook her head, her voice clear and pleasant, but with a noticeable aloofness: "I don’t want to queue, too crowded. Let’s go somewhere else; anything will do."

"Don’t! Look, if such an expensive restaurant has so many people queued up, the food must be good."

The man quickly persuaded, "Plus, today is a New Year holiday; other restaurants are probably even busier, and the environment might not be as good as here. Let’s wait a bit."

Wu Wei, hearing the woman’s voice, found it familiar, instinctively turning around for a glance.

Indeed, it was her—He Xinzhu.

Today, she wore a beige long wool coat, a light gray silk scarf around her neck, her black hair cascading down like a waterfall.

Her face was seemingly unadorned, with porcelain-like fair skin, shimmering under the winter sun.

At the moment, she was slightly frowning, her gaze carrying a hint of discreet irritation and impatience, clearly not in a good mood.

Wu Wei saw her, then glanced at the man clearly trying to impress her, getting a sense of the situation.

His lips curled into a smile, and he approached proactively, greeting, "Teacher He, what a coincidence, you’re here to eat too?"

He Xinzhu heard someone calling her, momentarily stunned, turning her head to look.

Seeing it was Wu Wei, a trace of obvious surprise flickered in her cool eyes.

Previously, her impression of Wu Wei wasn’t great, especially after the New Year’s Eve party, leaving her somewhat discontented with him.

But for some reason, now upon seeing Wu Wei, she suddenly felt he was more pleasing to the eye than Zhao Zhili beside her. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Wu Wei wore a gray wool coat, his figure tall and upright, his demeanor outstanding, filled with vitality, making her mood seem lighter just by looking.

"It’s you."

He Xinzhu nodded to Wu Wei politely, her voice still cool but less irritable than when she spoke to Zhao Zhili: "Yes, but there are too many people; it’ll take too long to queue up. I’m not planning to eat here."

"No worries, no need to queue; I have a seat."

Wu Wei promptly said, "Teacher He, if you don’t mind, let’s eat together?"

Wu Wei said this, looking at He Xinzhu squarely, as though it was just an ordinary suggestion between friends.

He Xinzhu was about to respond when Zhao Zhili interrupted, "Where do you have a seat? Aren’t you standing here too? This restaurant doesn’t allow advance reservations; are you planning to cut the line?"

Zhao Zhili was quite upset about the sudden interruption, especially seeing the other guy’s physique and looks outshining his own, younger, and in seemingly casual yet high-quality attire, obviously expensive, stirring a sense of crisis within him.

He Xinzhu found Zhao Zhili’s tone too aggressive, further displeased with his rudeness and impatience.

Yet, she was curious why Wu Wei said he had a seat.

So, she held back her words, quietly observing Wu Wei for his response.

Wu Wei looked at Zhao Zhili, smiling slightly, "Who said having a seat requires cutting the line? Just watch."

With that, he strode to the front of the line, used his money power on the couple at the very front.

The couple first looked surprised, then delighted, nodded agreeably.

Wu Wei operated his phone to make a payment, and the couple, thrilled, happily left the queue hand-in-hand after expressing their thanks.

At that moment, a system message notification popped up.

Wu Wei didn’t immediately check it, instead turned to He Xinzhu, gesturing with a light-hearted smile, "Teacher He, come over, we’re about to go in."

He Xinzhu was utterly stunned.

She never imagined... such an approach was possible.

Directly buying the queue position from others, completely shattering her life’s experiences and understanding.

Is this what they call... "money power"?

Simple and blunt but... indeed effective at this moment, leaving one speechless.

And beside her, Zhao Zhili’s face instantly turned ashen, looking as if he’d swallowed a fly.
