"Yeah! The food here is very expensive. We should call our friends and ask them to have dinner with us too. That way, the dinner would cost her a fortune and we will be doing our friends a favor." Duran Xie took out his phone and started to call his friends.
Maddock Zhu suggested, "We need to call those who are ZL Group's partners, or our plan will be exposed."
