Chapter 56: Vietnamese Hospitality

[Hong Hai Restaurant, Pasteur Street, District 3]

It was only a ten-minute drive before they reached a three-story building. The owner, General Nguyen’s old friend, had arranged a private room for him at her restaurant.

When the QuickMoves team walked in, several Vina-Go managers had already arrived and were seated at the end of the long table. Daphne waved when she saw Troy, Doang, Duc, and Diep seated among them.

Ly An Minh ushered Bob and Jackie to their seats to the left of General Nguyen, who sat at the head of the table. Then he took the seat opposite them. Henry sat next to Jackie, with Daphne and Troy after him.

When the general’s driver walked in with a box of what they suspected was full of rice wine, they knew it was going to be a long luncheon.

And true enough, a waitress walked in with a tray full of shot glasses. Jackie and Henry unconsciously looked at each other. *Shit!*

General Nguyen sensed their anxiety and grinned.
