Chapter 947

Seeing Hackett hesitate, Su Xinghui said: "Mr. Hackett, this is just a normal interaction between friends, and there is nothing else involved. If our project does not meet the World Bank's loan standards, you are welcome to veto it. A meal cannot affect the approval of such a large project."

Hackett then nodded and said: "Okay, then I will make an exception this time. I also want to taste the craftsmanship of the chef from the State Guest House."

Su Xinghui was overjoyed and said to Hackett: "Mr. Hackett, then I need to call the owner of that private kitchen restaurant and ask her to arrange a table for us. You don't know, but the business of this private kitchen restaurant is very good, and it needs to be booked a week in advance. I also know their owner, so I can eat there now."

Hackett nodded and said: "You can use the phone on my desk to call."

Su Xinghui then called Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu. Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu answered the phone, and when she heard it was Su Xinghui, she smiled and said: "Why, Xinghui, are you coming to eat at my place this afternoon?"

Su Xinghui said: "Yes, I want to invite Mr. Hackett, the chief representative of the World Bank's office in China, to dinner. Please help me arrange a table at your place."

Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu said without hesitation: "Okay, when are you coming over?"

Su Xinghui said: "We can set off immediately, and we should be able to arrive at your place in about half an hour."

Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu said: "Then I will prepare now."

Su Xinghui said: "There is one more thing. Xiaoya is still at the hotel. Please send a car to pick her up to your restaurant."

Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu said: "Okay, don't worry."

After hanging up the phone, Su Xinghui smiled and said to Hackett: "Mr. Hackett, I have already booked it. Can you set off now?"

Hackett stood up and smiled: "Yes, let's go."

Hackett called Su Shanna and asked her to drive. The three of them drove to Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu's private kitchen restaurant together. In less than half an hour, their car arrived there. Su Xinghui saw that Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu's car was already parked there, and he knew that Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu must have already picked up Lu Xiaoya.

Su Xinghui knocked on the door, and Manager Wang opened it. When she saw Su Xinghui, she smiled at him, led them in, and took them to the backyard.

Yu Sister Sister Ruoqiu and Lu Xiaoya were already waiting in the small room in the backyard. Su Xinghui introduced Hackett and Su Shanna's identities to them. After the two sides exchanged pleasantries, they sat down at the dining table as guests and hosts.

Su Xinghui asked: "Mr. Hackett, would you like to drink Chinese baijiu, foreign liquor, or beer?"

Hackett said: "I will drink Chinese baijiu. I like baijiu very much." ===== CHAPTER 949 =====
