Chapter 224: High-end Western Restaurant
The seats for the couple's package are arranged in advance, and the waiter pulls out the seats to seat the two ladies.
Yang Jing looked around and sat upright on the chair like others.
The environment in the restaurant is very quiet, except for some small chats and the sound of plates, the rest is only the sound of piano playing on the high platform not far away.
"Hey, Sister Chang, what should I do, I'm so panicked now!" Yang Jing suddenly lowered her voice and said.
Chang An smiled: "What are you panicking about?
Yang Jing: "No, I just think, look around......"
Chang An glanced in the direction of her finger, "What's wrong?"
"What's the matter? Don't you notice, all of them here are handsome guys and beautiful women, surrounded by big names, just like a bun. ”
Chang An glanced at the clothes on his body, and compared the surroundings, it did not look grand enough, but at least it was refreshing and generous.
"It's okay, it's not as bad as you think. ”
"Why not, I regret booking such an expensive restaurant now, it feels like spending money to find guilt, and now I don't even dare to breathe. ”
Chang An saw that Yang Jing was really sitting straight, and it was estimated that the muscles in his body were stiff.
"Poof, don't be so nervous, relax!"
"I want to, too, but I can't let it go. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the waiter who had led them in the door just now came over again and handed Yang Jing a wine list.
"What do you need to order?"
Yang Jing took it and looked at it, and closed it silently, "Didn't the package I booked before already contain alcohol?"
Waiter: "Sorry, no. ”
Yang Jing: "Why don't you have it?" I clearly remember what kind of wine there is. ”
Waiter: "Are you talking about aperitif?"
Yang Jing: "Yes, aperitif, since I have wine, why do you want me to order another wine, do you plan to consume it in a bundle?" she looked unhappy, and her voice couldn't help but rise, once attracting the attention of the people around her.
Chang An was a little embarrassed, and quickly patted Yang Jing's hand on the table, and said softly: "There is only a small glass of pre-dinner wine, and he asked you to order a table wine." ”
Yang Jing: "And the table wine?"
This word is simply not within her common sense.
Maybe Yang Jing spoke a little loudly, which was a little abrupt in this elegant Western restaurant.
The adjacent tables on both sides had already watched them and began to talk.
Chang An hurriedly took out the wine list on the table and returned it to the waiter, "Sorry, we don't need to order another drink, thank you!"
The waiter nodded, "Okay, then please wait." ”
When the waiter left, Yang Jing sneered, and secretly leaned over to Chang An and said, "You don't know how expensive the wine on that list is, so you want to deceive me and be the wrongdoer." ”
Chang An was a little speechless, and wanted to explain that Western food is usually accompanied by table wine, and different food ingredients also need to be paired with different wines, and different wines also need to be served in different cups, but seeing that Yang Jing was so indignant, she was not interested in explaining to her.
"Okay, it's rare to come anyway, let's leave after eating!"
"Well, let's leave when you're done!"
Yang Jing finally stopped and began to study the knives and forks on the table in front of her.
There were three large and small pairs, and she frowned: "Why are there so many knives and forks?"
Chang An supported his forehead, afraid that he would look foreign for a while, so he had to spend time with her to "popularize science".
"Generally, Western food will prepare two or three pairs of knives and forks, eat salad, eat seafood and main dishes need to use one pair each, and all in a prescribed order. ”
"Huh? Is there any order in this?"
"Yes, it's usually taken from the outside to the inside, the outermost pair is used to eat salad, and then the middle pair is used to eat seafood, and the innermost pair is to eat the main course, I just read the menu you ordered, the main dish is steak, so the innermost pair remembers to eat steak. ”
Yang Jing looked confused, took a fork in her hand and asked, "Why do you have so many rules for eating Western food?"
"Of course, and some countries eat Western food in different ways, take steak as an example, Americans like to cut from the left side to the right side first, and then change the fork to the right hand fork food, while in the United Kingdom, it is generally the right hand with a knife, the left hand with a fork, from the left side to cut a small piece directly into the mouth, this is also the way that most people in our country are used to eating. ”
"Huh?
"Well, yes, I still need to remind you of one more thing!" Chang An reached out and pressed Yang Jing down on his knife and fork, "If you want to talk when eating Western food, please put down your knife and fork, it is extremely rude to talk with a knife and fork like you." ”
“……”
Before starting to eat, Chang An finally explained the basic matters of eating Western food to Yang Jing, but Yang Jing seemed to have opened a new horizon.
"Sister Chang, do you know a lot, did you often eat Western food before?"
Chang An smiled: "No." ”
Yang Jing seemed to want to ask, Chang An pointed to her face, "It should be ready for a while, you go to make up your makeup first, and eat beautifully." ”
One sentence successfully made Yang Jing's attention deviate.
"Really?
"Eyes, under the eyes!"
Yang Jing hurriedly took out a small mirror from her bag and took a look, she cried on the way here just now, and her eyeliner was indeed a little confused.
"Then I'll go to the bathroom!"
"Good. ”
Yang Jing took the makeup bag and left her seat, Chang An breathed a sigh of relief, regretting in her heart that she really shouldn't have been soft-hearted to accompany her to this meal.
At this time, the mobile phone rang on the table, and Zhou Wei's phone was answered by Chang An, who went straight to the topic and asked: "Where are you having dinner with your colleagues?"
Chang An reported the name of the restaurant.
"I'm almost done here, I'm done picking you up!"
"No, I'll just take a taxi back. ”
"Why, I can't take it? I don't want your colleagues to see me?"
"No, what are you thinking!" Chang An scolded, "I just think it's a little far away for you to pick me up again, and it's more convenient for me to take a taxi." ”
"That's it, let's go out to see the weather, if you can get a taxi there today, I'll take your last name!"
“……”
Chang An just hung up the phone, and looked up to see that Yang Jing had already walked from the direction of the bathroom, and there was a middle-aged man next to him, bald, and pot-bellied.
It's just that the man parted ways with Yang Jing at the fork in the road to the second floor.
Yang Jing returned to her seat, and Chang An asked curiously: "Have you met an acquaintance?"
"Yes, the boss of Changtai Building Materials, I have met him twice in the company's activities before. ”
Chang An suddenly remembered, no wonder he felt that the person was familiar, the year before last the mobilization meeting dinner of the Luyang Lake project, Zhou Wei had brought Chang An to attend together, and this person was also present at that time, and he called Chang An "little Jasmine" in front of everyone very lightly.
"Changtai also has cooperation with our company?"
"Yes, all the time. Yang Jing suddenly stopped to look at Chang An, "What, are you interested in Boss Luo?"
Chang An thought for a moment and reacted, "What nonsense, how can you have these things in your head all day." ”
Yang Jing immediately laughed, "Just kidding, it's impossible to think about you." ”
Chang An: "......"
