Volume 1: The Self-Help System of Waste Wood Chapter 26 Meet Li Yan Again
In a lonely and desolate barren place, the two walked side by side.
One looked up at the sky and saw infinite hope.
One looked at the black soil and glimpsed the crazy ambition.
- "Success on the Left and on the Right"
Sen Sen's voice was very soft, and his eyes were also touching away, and his timid appearance made Tang Yifeng very helpless.
But this is also to be expected, after all, it is still a child, and it is understandable to be afraid of contact with strangers.
"Steak. Tang Yifeng muttered, not sure if a child was suitable for eating such indigestible food.
"At home, I eat this for lunch. β
Sen Sen's words sounded at the right time, dispelling Tang Yifeng's last concerns.
"Okay, then let's go eat steak. Tang Yifeng smiled.
Having said that, Tang Yifeng knew very well that he would cook a homely meal, but as for steak, he really couldn't cook it.
After thinking about it, Tang Yifeng took out his mobile phone, searched for the top-ranked steakhouse on the map software, and after a while, he determined a western restaurant with a high star.
"Let's go, Uncle will take you out to dinner. β
Sen Sen blinked, as if he was a little puzzled by this sentence, but in the end, he didn't ask anything, nodded, and followed behind Tang Yifeng.
After leaving home, I took a taxi and told me the location, and soon arrived at my destination, the Hilton restaurant.
"Hello and welcome to our store. β
As soon as he entered the door, a male waiter greeted him politely, and after looking Tang Yifeng up and down a few times, his brows furrowed slightly, but he quickly regained his smile.
After Tang Yifeng smiled, the waitress continued: "Do you have a room reservation?"
Tang Yifeng shook his head, "No, do you need to make a room reservation in advance to eat here?"
The waitress frowned slightly, and was already very sure that the shabby-dressed man in front of him was definitely the first time to dine here, so he explained with a smile: "If it is during the peak dining period, it is indeed necessary to make an appointment in advance, but there is no need for this now." However, you do not have a room reservation, so you can only choose the location in the lobby, so please understand. β
"It's okay, it's in the hall. Tang Yifeng smiled.
"Okay, what about the number of diners?"
"Yes. Tang Yifeng replied.
"Understood, please follow me. The hostess nodded and led the two of them to the hall.
As soon as he sat down, a menu was placed on the table, and after a brief look at the dishes on it, Tang Yifeng's face gradually darkened a little.
On the menu, the cheapest is a fruit salad, which costs 300 yuan.
What kind of salad is this? Made of gold?
Tang Yifeng wanted to complain like this, but in the end he held back, swallowed and spit, and asked cautiously: "That, cough, can you pay by credit card here?"
"Absolutely. The waitress replied.
"That's good. Tang Yifeng sighed at this time, in fact, he originally thought that it was just a meal, how much could it cost, and he didn't take out the cash from the travel bag.
But now that I look at it, I'm really naΓ―ve enough.
"Well, get me a steak. Tang Yifeng pointed to the menu and said.
"Only one copy?" the waitress was stunned, but quickly understood and smiled, "How familiar do you want to be?"
"Fully cooked. Tang Yifeng said without thinking about it, Sen Sen is so young, in case he spoils his stomach because the steak is undercooked, he can't afford this responsibility.
"Okay, please wait. β
The waitress bowed politely and left the table. At this time, the smile on Tang Yifeng's face finally couldn't be maintained, looking at the menu, and then at the price, there was a sentence in his heart that he didn't know whether to talk about it or not.
I just ordered a steak, and 900 yuan went with the wind, which is really expensive enough for lunch.
However, no matter what Boss Lei said, he also left 2 million for himself, as Sensen's living expenses, this money will be spent, don't wronged someone's granddaughter.
Because it was not during the peak dining season, there were not many people ordering, and soon, a fully cooked steak was placed in front of Tang Yifeng.
"Please use it slowly, if you still have any needs, I will serve you as soon as possible. β
Tang Yifeng nodded and smiled, then pushed the steak to Sen Sen, and said softly: "The dish is here, let's eat." β
At this moment, the little one's attention was already focused on the steak, and he picked up the knife and fork and planned to eat.
But for a while, he couldn't cut the steak, so he stopped his movements, raised his head, and looked at Tang Yifeng aggrievedly.
"Can't cut ......"
Listening to Sen Sen's aggrieved words, Tang Yifeng couldn't cry or laugh, so he could only take the knife and fork and help her cut little by little.
Because it was the first time to use such a tableware, the steak was cut unevenly in size.
But the little guy doesn't care about this, as the steak is all cut, saliva can already be faintly seen next to the corners of the pink mouth.
"Alright, let's eat. β
Tang Yifeng returned the knife and fork to Sen Sen, and the little guy immediately tied up a piece of beef and put it in his mouth, and then a satisfied smile appeared on his little face.
Just after eating a few bites, Sen Sen suddenly stopped his movements, and then, in Tang Yifeng's puzzled eyes, he raised his little head and blinked, as if he was thinking about something.
After a while, he suddenly used his fork to separate some beef, and his eyes continued to focus on Tang Yifeng.
"Hmm, what's wrong, isn't it unappetizing?" Tang Yifeng asked suspiciously.
Sen Sen shook his little head, then tied up a piece of beef with a fork, stretched out his hand, and handed it to Tang Yifeng, "Uncle eats it too." β
Tang Yifeng was stunned, and after a while, he couldn't help laughing, and then shook his head, "Uncle is not hungry, so he won't eat." β
In fact, Tang Yifeng was really a little greedy when he smelled the aroma of steak at the moment, but the price of the dishes discouraged him, who was used to being thrifty on weekdays. As for grabbing food with small children...... It's really embarrassing.
After being rejected, Sen Sen still wanted to insist, but it wasn't until Tang Yifeng took the fork and put on an 'ah' mouth that the little guy who shared the food immediately became a little gluttonous cat.
After eating the beef on the fork in one bite, he chewed it happily, and from time to time he would breathe, which made Tang Yifeng laugh again.
Soon, the steak was wiped out by Sen Sen, and in order to prevent an unbalanced diet, Tang Yifeng ordered a small portion of vegetable salad.
"Huh? this person...... Isn't it Tang Yifeng?haha, I didn't expect to meet you here, it's really strange. β
At this moment, a slightly sarcastic voice suddenly sounded.
Tang Yifeng frowned, looked towards the voice, and suddenly his eyes widened.
But soon, he regained his composure and smiled reluctantly, "Do we know each other?"
"You may not know me, but I know you. Aren't you the one, that, oh, by the way, the toad who wants to eat swan meat, right, Li Yan. β
The one who spoke was a middle-aged man with a fat physique, and he knew that the price was expensive when he looked at the brand in a suit, but when he wore it, it was too bloated, but people couldn't see the value of the suit.
At this moment, as he spoke, he wrapped his hand around the waist of the female companion beside him with his gold watch, and then showed a defiant smile.
"Don't do that. On the side, Li Yan's face was a little pale, and she muttered in forgiveness, her eyes dodging, but intentionally or unintentionally, she still looked at Tang Yifeng.
At this moment, Tang Yifeng also looked at her, looking at this woman with a good face, even if her face was embarrassed and embarrassed at the moment, she was still beautiful and moving, and smiled slightly, "It's been a long time, Li Yan." β
"Yo, that's pretty polite. Before Li Yan could respond, the man on the side took the first step to speak, took a step closer to Tang Yifeng, bent down, and his eyes were full of banter, "What? Do you want me to leave some space for the two of you, and you can talk about the old days?"
Tang Yifeng opened his mouth and was just about to speak, when he suddenly found that an inexplicable halo gradually surged up on the man's body.
In the flickering, it exudes an emerald green color.
Tang Yifeng was very surprised, remembering that he had also seen such a strange phenomenon in the hospital, but at that time, Dr. Qu exuded an orange-yellow halo.
However, although the colors of the two are different, they both make Tang Yifeng feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Not surprisingly, it's just a halo of jealousy. At this moment, the voice of deep blue suddenly sounded in his mind.
"Jealousy?" Tang Yifeng was puzzled, and said secretly in his heart: "I don't quite understand. β
"Does this halo make you weird, or does he make you feel strange because he's jealous of you? If it's the former, it's hard for me to explain it to you for a while. If it's the latter, well, how to put it, maybe he cares that you used to be this female creature...... Boyfriend? probably. After all, you haven't turned on your mind snooping ability yet, so you can't see what he's thinking. β
Deep Blue's words made Tang Yifeng suddenly understand a little, looked at Li Yan's miserable face, and then looked at the man's provocative appearance, and suddenly sighed for a while.
"I have to say, I'm really jealous of you. β
As soon as these words came out, the man and Li Yan were stunned, not understanding what this sentence meant at all.
At this time, Tang Yifeng continued: "Li Yan, she has a very unique vision and has found such a ...... Congratulations on your successful boyfriend. β
Tang Yifeng searched his intestines and scraped his stomach, so he finally gritted his teeth and praised the man, and then sighed pretending to express the depression of the loser.
At this moment, the man finally withdrew his provocative gaze, and after a while, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, revealing a smile.
Obviously, this sentence is very useful.
"Sir, may I ask what is the matter?"
Just as the man was about to speak, the waitress interrupted.
"It's okay, it's just that I saw old acquaintances and reminisced about the past, and now it's okay. The man waved his hand, and after telling a lie as a matter of course, he took Li Yan and left.
"He didn't get in the way of your meal. It wasn't until the man left that the waitress asked.
"It's okay, well, it's okay. β
Tang Yifeng responded with a smile, but the hands under the table were already tightly clasped together.
The words that kept repeating in his mouth were more like comforting himself than a reply to the hostess.
After Sen Sen finished eating the last bite of salad, Tang Yifeng went to the front desk to settle the bill with his credit card, and was about to leave when suddenly, a voice came from behind him.
"Yi Feng, thank you for what happened just now. β
"Thanks?" Tang Yifeng turned his head and looked at Li Yan in front of him with a tangled face, and shook his head for a while, "I didn't do anything, and you don't have to thank you." β
Li Yan bit her lip, her eyes were a little complicated, "I know you said those words to give me the stairs, didn't you?"
Tang Yifeng didn't reply, just looked at Li Yan, and felt a little emotion in his heart.
Sure enough, her mind will still be seen through by her at a glance as always.
In fact, what Li Yan said was not wrong.
After Tang Yifeng knew the man's jealousy, in order to avoid making trouble for himself, and at the same time, he didn't want to see Li Yan angry by this jealousy, so he chose to praise the man.
And this thought, in front of this ex-girlfriend who has been dating for four years, can't hide it at all.
But unfortunately, this tacit understanding is still there, but the relationship is no longer what it used to be.
Tang Yifeng didn't continue on this issue, and after leaving a smile, he turned around and left.
Before leaving, Tang Yifeng turned his back, raised his arm and waved a few times, "Goodbye, Li Yan, congratulations on finding happiness." β
"Happiness?"
Looking at Tang Yifeng's departing back, Li Yan muttered softly.
Happiness, maybe there was once, the years of the students, the sweet love between the two.
Now, however, happiness ...... No need!
Ravaged by that pig-like bastard, he did all kinds of shameful things.
Reserved, no more.
Shame on you, give up.
So, for what?
For happiness?
Ha, no kidding!
After paying so much and throwing away so much, who would be rare and happy with such a cheap thing?!
Only by being the victor and dominating everything is the only thing that satisfies the heart!
All the processes and methods, how good!
Li Yan's face kept changing, angry, unwilling, and hesitant until ...... Resolute.
The roar in my heart gradually disappeared, and my pretty face regained its calm.
Then, she looked at Tang Yifeng's back, and for the last time, she showed a real smile.
"I wish you the best of luck, Yi Feng. β
With that, he turned and left.
Under the clear sky, the two drifted apart.
One to the left.
One to the right.
