My Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 212

Mayor Zhao of course needed to accompany Kerry all the way. If he could persuade Kerry to invest here, that would be a big achievement.

Secretary Ma’s home was not far away. The courtyard was paved with bricks and the corner was planted with vegetable. In order to meet the guests, it had been cleaned up.

They went into the living room and the table had been placed on a few dishes, local ones, seeming very delicious.

Secretary Ma warmly greeted everyone and after everyone settled, he rubbed his big hand and said, “I hope you’ll like it. The vegetables are produced by ourselves, with no pesticides. They are very fresh and health. I hope you won’t mind.”

Venus could see that he was a little nervous and said with a smile, “I like it. Thank you for inviting us.”

Secretary Ma didn’t expect Venus to be so soft and grinned, “That’ s good. I’ll go to the kitchen and ask them to be quicker. Excuse me.”

Venus drank the water she brought with her and asked Kerry with her eyes, “Can we eat now?”

Kerry said with a smile, “Well, let’s eat.”

Mayor Zhao and several other officials echoed, “Sure.”

Venus tried some beans, which was sweet and sour, plus its freshness, so it was really delicious.

Then Mayor Zhao brought a bottle of wine, but was directly refused by Kerry, “Sorry, I cannot drink.”

“Well…” He was a little embarrassed.

Kerry explained, “If you have anything to say, just tell me. I do not drink during the day, so as not to influence my work. This is my principle.”

“Oh.” He then put the wine on the floor and said with a smile, “Mr. Ye, perhaps you also know that our economy is not very developed, but the environment is very beautiful, and our government’s policy in attracting investment is very good. If you have time, we welcome you to visit our county.”

As soon as it was about work, Kerry became serious, “OK. I’ll have a professional evaluation team come in a few days. If it’s suitable for investment, I’ll consider it.”

“Ah, that’s really great. Thank you so much. I’ll toast to Mr. Ye with tea instead of wine.” Mayor Zhao said excitedly.

Kerry clinked his glass.

Venus, however, just focused on eating. She tried every dish on the table, which were with fewer oil and salt, tasting good.

When she was eating, a one-year-old child staggered in, with a floral dress and twin tails. She was very cute, blinking her eyes, whose face was ruddy.

She looked at the table for a moment and then came over to Venus, stretching out her hand and babbling as if she wanted her to hug her.

Venus was occupied by her big eyes and bent down to pick her up on her lap, asking softly, “What are you talking about, little princess?”

“Food…” The little girl pointed to the food on the table.

“You wanna eat?” Venus asked patiently.
