Huang Yongfu was thrilled to see Song Ning.
Ignoring his companions behind him, he rushed forward, grabbed both her hands, and shook them vigorously as he spoke, still shaken by what had happened:
"Boss Song! I've been worried sick these past two days! I called the police station several times every day to ask about you! I was so afraid something had happened to you!"
Song Ning smiled. "Everything happened so suddenly that day, and I didn't explain things properly! I'm really sorry I made you worry! By the way, was your car returned afterward?"
"Yes, yes! Some soldiers brought it back first thing the next morning!"
Huang Yongfu waved a hand. "Oh, what's a car compared to your safety? You saved my life! Having you come back safe matters more than anything!"
As he spoke, he pointed toward the restaurant.
"Boss Song! Would you do me the honor of letting me treat you to breakfast? There's so much I want to talk to you about! And I have a few friends I'd like you to meet!"
Song Ning knew the lobby really wasn't a convenient place to talk.
The people who had come out with Huang Yongfu stood a short distance away, watching them.

When Song Ning looked over, they all nodded politely to her.
She nodded back. "All right!"

Its restaurant was correspondingly upscale.
Huang Yongfu requested a private room and waited until everyone was seated before making the introductions.

Before Huang Yongfu could finish, Song Ning had already stood up and leaned forward to offer her hand.
"Miss Chen Yawen, isn't it?
