Chapter 114: Chapter 112: I Am Capital

Even before they reached the private room, they could hear the lively sounds of conversation and laughter from inside.

When the door opened, everyone inside turned, then subconsciously stood up from their seats.

"Cecilia bought each of us a new laptop!"

Gavin Garrett shouted excitedly the moment he walked in.

Cecilia followed them into the private room, and the first thing she saw were the looks of shock and delight on everyone’s faces.

She took the initiative to greet them. "Hello, everyone. It’s so nice to finally meet you all!"

The team consisted of eight people: one woman and seven men.

Some of them had heard Cecilia’s name, but this was the first time most of them were seeing her in person.

Their expressions varied. Some were reserved, others curious, and a few couldn’t hide their looks of awe.

"She’s as beautiful as the rumors say."

The one who spoke was Titus Lawson, a senior from the computer science department.

His words snapped everyone out of their trance, and they all nodded in agreement.

Cecilia smiled faintly. She could tell everyone was still a little nervous, likely due to her status as their investor.

"Please, don’t stand. Let’s all sit down and order."

Cecilia gestured warmly. She scanned the QR code with her phone and handed it to Timothy Rowe beside her. "Let’s pass this around. Everyone pick two dishes, one meat and one vegetable. Please, don’t be shy."

"Why don’t you just order? We’re fine with anything." Timothy Rowe pushed the phone back to Cecilia.

Cecilia shot him a look. "Rowe, you and I know each other the best. If even you’re going to be so formal with me, what about everyone else? You need to set a good example!"

Timothy Rowe smiled, a little sheepishly. Cecilia took the phone back and handed it to Gavin Garrett. "Garrett, you go ahead."

Gavin Garrett was the uninhibited type. He grinned from ear to ear and took the phone. "Alright, I’ll order then. Don’t mind if I do!"

"Please, don’t hold back. Today is all about eating, drinking, and having a good time. Team-building events like this will be a regular thing for us from now on."

Cecilia’s relaxed words and actions made her seem very approachable, and everyone subconsciously began to relax.

After Gavin Garrett ordered the Crispy-Skinned Squab and Boiled Shredded Tofu, he passed the phone to the next person.

With someone having broken the ice, the others were no longer hesitant. After everyone had ordered, the phone made its way back to Cecilia.

She glanced at the order. Sure enough, everyone had followed her instructions and picked one meat and one vegetable dish, making for sixteen dishes in total.

But even with their meat choices, everyone had subconsciously picked relatively inexpensive dishes. There was a "Premium Selections" section on the menu where most items were priced per head, featuring famous Cathayan delicacies made with expensive ingredients and meticulous preparation. These were, naturally, the priciest.
