Chapter 112: Ordinary People
Ji Mengqing took her daughter's hand and walked into the restaurant with a happy face. This "romantic" restaurant is her own effort, from preparation to decoration is her own hands, and now that the restaurant's business is finally on the right track, she can finally rest assured that she doesn't have to worry about everything. A single mother has to take care of such a big business and her young daughter, and sometimes she feels very tired, but every time she sees her daughter's innocent and lovely face, she feels extremely happy in her heart.
For her, her daughter is now all she has, and even if she is tired, it is worth it.
When he walked into the restaurant, Ji Mengqing glanced around inadvertently, and the whole person suddenly became petrified, and he looked at the rustic young man in the corner in shock. The daughter suddenly stopped when she saw her mother, looked at her curiously, and shouted, "Mom, why don't you leave?"
Hearing her daughter's voice, Ji Mengqing woke up from her distraction, smiled kindly at her daughter, and said, "Let's go!" After speaking, he took his daughter's hand and walked towards his office, still glancing at the man in the corner from time to time along the way.
This man impressed her too much, if it weren't for her, I was afraid that she would have died in a foreign country long ago. Although two years have passed, the image of that man has been deeply engraved in his mind. Sometimes, in the lonely night, the majestic image of that man will creep up in his heart.
In the past two years, she has also tried to inquire about him, but she has not gained anything. But I didn't expect to see him in my restaurant today.
After arriving in the office, my daughter sat on the sofa and ate snacks very well-behaved, and played with the rag doll alone.
Ye Qian obviously didn't notice that someone was secretly observing him, after all, it was dinner with Lin Rourou, and there was no need for him to tense his nerves. If you eat, you should relax. When the waiter recommended those dishes to him, Ye Qian smiled faintly, although the waiter was well disguised, Ye Qian could still catch the contempt in her eyes. He didn't pursue it, Ye Qian, a person like her who always looked at people with colored glasses, had seen a lot, and there was no need to be as knowledgeable as her. Moreover, he felt very happy eating with Lin Rourou, and he was too lazy to worry too much. However, after all, it was the first time to invite Lin Rourou to dinner, and of course Ye Qian, such a kind girl, couldn't bear to let her suffer any grievances, so when the waiter deliberately recommended those expensive steaks, caviar and red wine, he didn't refuse.
"Rou Yau?" said a young woman holding a young man's arm as they were eating.
Lin Rourou raised her head and glanced at her in surprise, and said in surprise: "Yaying, are you Xu Yaying, where do you work now?" Lin Rourou didn't expect to meet her classmates here, and she was very happy.
"I work in the Family Planning Bureau. Being a nurse has no future, and my boyfriend didn't want me to be too tired, so he pressed me into the Family Planning Bureau, and now I am a career establishment and a civil servant. What about you, are you still a nurse in the People's Hospital?" Xu Yaying said proudly.
"Yes!" Lin Rourou said lightly, not reacting to Xu Yaying's pride.
"Rourou, I really don't understand you, it's not easy to change to a good job on your terms, why do you want to be a hard and tired nurse. Xu Yaying looked very concerned about Lin Rourou, but in fact, she was hinting at her intelligence and how high-spirited she was now.
Lin Rourou smiled faintly and said, "I like the work of a nurse very much, although I am tired, I am very happy." ”
Xu Yaying shook her head and changed the topic: "Rourou, let me introduce you, this is my boyfriend Zhao Xie, he works in the District Justice Bureau, and he will soon be working in the Municipal Party Committee." Xu Yaying's face was full of pride, and it was a little disgusting to watch. When she was in school, Xu Yaying was pressed by Lin Rourou everywhere. In terms of theoretical knowledge and practical ability of nursing, she is inferior to Lin Rourou, and in terms of appearance, she is not as good as Lin Rourou. But these are no longer important to her now, no matter how good Lin Rourou was at the beginning, she is not compared to herself now.
After hearing Xu Yaying's introduction, Ye Qian, who had been drinking red wine silently, couldn't help but laugh "poof", and secretly thought in his heart, what is the name is not good, but it should be called Zao Xie. Seeing that the three of them turned their blank gazes to themselves, Ye Qian smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I suddenly thought."
It's just a joke, you go ahead. ”
"Rourou, is this your boyfriend? Why don't you introduce me? Handsome guy, where is the high school?" Xu Yaying asked. Although she called Ye Qian a handsome guy, her expression clearly showed that this title was just a courtesy, and she didn't look down on an old hat like Ye Qian.
Lin Rourou has only known Ye Qian for two days, and the number of times the two have met is only a few times, so she is not very clear about what Ye Qian does. Hearing Xu Yaying say that Ye Qian was her boyfriend, Lin Rourou couldn't help blushing slightly, but she didn't say anything against it.
"I don't dare to be high, I work as a security guard in a company. Ye Qian said lightly.
Hearing Ye Qian's answer, Xu Yaying and Zhao Xie obviously showed a look of disdain, they are both young talents with a bright future, how can they put an ordinary security guard in their eyes when they are proud of the spring breeze. Xu Yaying was even more proud, thinking, no matter how beautiful your boyfriend Lin Rourou is, he is not a security guard, and he has no future in his life.
"By the way, Rourou, today is Ouyang's birthday, we are going to the bar to celebrate, you can come together." Xu Yaying said politely, but the discerning person understood at a glance that she had no sincerity at all, and she always wanted to continue to mock Lin Rourou and hit her.
Lin Rourou is a good girl, she has never been to a bar when she is so old, and when she heard Xu Yaying's words, she turned her expectant gaze to Ye Qian. Ye Qian shook his head secretly, thinking, what a simple girl. But since Lin Rourou wanted to go, Ye Qian would naturally accompany her. Nodding slightly, Ye Qian said, "Tell us the place, and we'll go over after eating." ”
"Good, Enchanted Bar, eight o'clock in the evening. Xu Yaying said, "See you or leave." After speaking, Xu Yaying proudly took Zhao Xie's arm and walked out of the restaurant. During the whole process, Zhao Xie didn't say a word, not because he had any demeanor, but because he thought that people like Xiang Ye Qian were not qualified to deal with him at all.
As soon as he got out of the restaurant, Zhao Xie said depressedly: "Why did your classmate choose such a boyfriend? ”
"Isn't Ouyang Gongzi not a girlfriend yet? Why don't you introduce my classmate to him tonight." Xu Yaying said badly. She knows very well who Ouyang Gongzi is, and she doesn't know how many women from good families she has harmed. The reason why she wanted to introduce Lin Rourou to him was nothing more than to see Lin Rourou's jokes after being abandoned by Ouyang Gongzi.
Zhao Xie understood what Xu Yaying meant as soon as he heard it, smiled evilly, gently pinched her face, and said, "You are so bad, but I like it, haha." If we can really push your classmate onto Ouyang Gongzi's bed, it will be of great benefit to us. ”
The two looked at each other and smiled. It's really a dog man and a woman.
Watching Xu Yaying and Zhao Xie leave, Ye Qian said lightly: "You classmate doesn't seem to like you very much." ”
Lin Rourou smiled slyly and said, "I know, doesn't she just want to see my jokes." However, I'm afraid that it will disappoint her, I am happy with who I choose to befriend, and what if her boyfriend is powerful and powerful. ”
Ye Qian was slightly stunned, and then laughed, it seems that he really underestimated Lin Rourou, this girl is smart.
After dinner, the two were about to settle the bill and leave, when a young woman approached. In front of Ye Qian, the young woman took a closer look and exclaimed excitedly: "Engong, is it you?" Isn't it who Ji Mengqing, the owner of the romantic restaurant, is, she has been observing Ye Qian's movements in the office, and seeing that he is about to leave, she finally couldn't wait any longer, and walked straight over. If you lose this opportunity, you don't know when you will be able to meet Ye Qian.
Lin Rourou looked at Ji Mengqing in surprise, and then at Ye Qian, she didn't understand what was going on at all, and she didn't understand why Ji Mengqing called Ye Qian "Engong" for no reason, could it be that Ye Qian had saved her before?
Ye Qian was not stunned, looked at the young woman in front of him blankly, and said in surprise: "Do I know you?"
"Engong, don't you remember? In country F, if you weren't afraid that I would die in a foreign land, I would never forget your kindness for the rest of my life. Ji Mengqing said sincerely.
Ye Qian glanced at Ji Mengqing carefully, tried to recall, and felt that the woman in front of him was a little familiar. Well, it seems that he was asked by a wealthy merchant to go to country F to save his daughter at the hands of an arms dealer. When Ye Qian led his wolf tooth troops to completely exterminate the group of arms dealers, the rescued hostage was the woman in front of him. At that time, Ye Qian saw that she was also from Huaxia, so he did not let her family take money to collect people like other hostages, but gave her a sum of money to let her return to China.
Ye Qian didn't do a loss-making business, he rescued so many hostages that time, it was impossible to take only the money of that financial merchant, and the families of the other hostages naturally had to pay some money. And the families of those hostages were naturally happy when they learned that their relatives had been rescued, and they gave the money to Ye Qian into their accounts.
As for Ji Mengqing, at first Ye Qian also thought about letting her relatives use money to ransom people, but when he heard that she only had a young daughter, Ye Qian relented, not only confiscated her money but also gave her a sum of money and let her return to China. Ji Mengqing relied on that money to open this Western restaurant, and with her efforts, the restaurant has begun to take shape, but she still clearly remembers who gave all this. If it weren't for Ye Qian, let alone the current life, he would have died in a foreign land a long time ago, and his young daughter would have become an orphan.
"Oh, I remembered. You don't have to call me Engong, it sounds weird, just call me Ye Qian. Ye Qian smiled and said.
"Mr. Ye, since I returned to China, I have been inquiring about your news, and I want to find an opportunity to repay you, but there has been no news from you. If I hadn't met you here today, I don't know when I would have had the opportunity to repay you. Ji Mengqing said.
Ye Qian thought secretly, it would be strange if you could find out about me, it is not easy for so many heads of state to find themselves, let alone you. Smiling slightly, Ye Qian said, "You're welcome, that time was just a coincidence." ”
"It's just a coincidence, but you really saved my life. Mr. Ye, if I can, I want to treat you to a meal, as if I repay you for saving your life that day, please promise me, otherwise I will not be at ease for the rest of my life. Ji Mengqing said.
Ye Qian said: "Okay, if you have time, you must go." ”
"Mr. Ye, then how can I contact you?" Ji Mengqing asked expectantly.
Ye Qian pondered for a moment and said, "I'll give you my mobile phone number, and you can call me when the time comes." After speaking, he reported his mobile phone number to Ji Mengqing, and Ji Mengqing wrote it down very solemnly. Ye Qian continued: "There are still things to do tonight, and I have a chance to talk about it again." Waiter!" Ye Qian waved to the waiter as he spoke.
"Mr. Ye, no need, this meal will be regarded as my treat. Ji Mengqing said.
"Huh?" Ye Qian was slightly stunned for a moment, and said, "This is not embarrassing, is it?" It's not that Ye Qian is pretentious, but this meal costs at least thirty or forty thousand, and he heard from Ji Mengqing's words that she is not very rich, so he refused. Ji Mengqing had already planned to open a Western restaurant, and that time Ji Mengqing went to country F to inspect the management of the Western restaurant, etc., and was inadvertently arrested by the gang of arms dealers. She originally thought she was dead, but she didn't expect to meet Ye Qian. She was not rich at the beginning, a woman not only had to work but also had a young daughter, where would she have any money, what she didn't expect was that Ye Qian actually gave her a bank card. Later, she checked it, and there were as many as 500,000 in it.
Ji Mengqing smiled slightly and said, "This restaurant is mine, so it shouldn't be a problem to pay the bill for you, so Mr. Ye shouldn't refuse." ”
Ye Qian was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "Since this is the case, then I am welcome." "Ye Qian is not the kind of person who is pretentious, since Ji Mengqing is willing to give him free, of course Ye Qian will not refuse. Of course, the premise is that Ji Mengqing now has such economic conditions.
After saying goodbye to Ji Mengqing, Ye Qian took Lin Rourou's hand and walked out. Looking at Ye Qian's departing back, Ji Mengqing was stunned. Although she didn't understand why Ye Qian was dressed so ordinary, and he was just driving an ordinary Honda, but in her mind, this was Ye Qian's easy-going and humble, and there was nothing to do. After all, a person who can casually throw half a million to a stranger will be a poor man?
