Volume 4 The Gate of Memory Section 21 Family Disputes

China is indeed a very mysterious country.

Generally, after foreign friends hear that you are Chinese, they will say, cake seller, China, mysterious country. But this from another point of view, that is, China really makes foreigners not very understandable, this truth also applies to men and women, people are curious, lovers remain in love, but because of mystery, but if you go to bed, the last trace of mystery is also in broad daylight, which will make people interested, and then look for another mystery.

"Oh?" Ye Feng responded, feeling that this is not a good thing, courtesy and people, there must be something to ask for, this Korean woman has changed from ice cream to freshly baked cake, which inevitably makes people feel that there is some purpose.

"I've heard that the Chinese are very hospitable and welcoming. The girl continued, looking like she had a good impression of Ye Feng.

Ye Feng had a headache, "The Chinese are hospitable, but I'm here and I'm also a guest." ”

The implication of his words is obvious, I am also prepared to be entertained, not intended to entertain others.

"Are you here for the first time?" asked the girl.

"Been here a few times. Ye Feng felt that something was wrong, and it looked like he was going to move the garlic snail out as a rescuer again.

The girl smiled, "It's my first time here. ”

"Huh?" Ye Feng was a little surprised, "The first time you came here, you were chased and killed?"

"It's not a chase, it's not. The girl just shook her head, looking a little hesitant, "Would you like to hear my story?"

Cool breeze on the night. The lights are blurry, and it is difficult for people to refuse what such a girl says, but Ye Feng just shook his head, "I'm sorry, I still have something." ”

"Don't you want to see it again?" the girl pulled out another bill, and it turned out to be five hundred euros.

She didn't seem to have anything. It's just a large denomination of currency, and it looks really rich.

Ye Feng sighed. "It looks lovely. ”

"That hour, let you see it once?" the girl smiled slyly.

"Deal. Ye Feng looked at the time, and also felt that it was a little late, he wanted to go to the place that the hermit said immediately, but as soon as he came to that place, it was far away, in the suburbs, and he had always felt that the French were romantic. At this time, it is indeed a bit abrupt to wake people up from the bed. After thinking about it for a while, he felt that it was better to find a hotel to stay for one night, he was not greedy for money, but he didn't want others to owe him love.

It is very troublesome for others to owe him affections, and for the affection he owes to others.

The girl smiled. felt as if he had found Ye Feng's weakness, and put the money in Ye Feng's hands before saying: "Actually, you think I'm inexplicable, I'm also suspicious of you, I'm really afraid that you were also sent by them." ”

"Them?" Ye Feng wondered.

"Let's find a place to sit down and talk," the girl smiled, "five hundred euros an hour." Very high price. I want to take a break. It's my first time here, and I'm a little hungry with you to show me the way. ”

Ye Feng took people's money and eliminated disasters with others, and nodded, "Actually, the driver has been going around in circles, and there is not much distance to walk, not far from here, is the Champs-Élysées, which is very prosperous." Yes...... ”

"I'm not here for tourism. The girl smiled a little wryly, "The more prosperous the place." I'm more afraid to go. ”

"Haven't you heard that the most dangerous place is the safest?" Ye Feng smiled.

The girl's eyes lit up, "Then listen to you." It's just that you can help me find a restaurant, I'm hungry enough to eat a cow. ”

"OK," Ye Feng gestured, "I know there is indeed a good restaurant around here, I don't know if you can eat a cow if you are hungry, but I'm only afraid that you will eat your own tongue." ”

The girl laughed 'poof', and the slight awkwardness between the two had disappeared without a trace.

"I eat Korean food, I know there is one in the neighborhood, but it's not professional. Ye Feng smiled.

The girl sighed, "I don't eat enough in China every day, do I have to come to France to eat Korean food? ”

"No problem," Ye Feng also laughed, feeling that this girl was amazing at first sight, and after a few more glances, he didn't expect that it would be easy to get along with.

Ye Feng did seem to have been here, no longer called a taxi, just walked forward with the girl for a few minutes, turned left, and a wide avenue appeared, but Ye Feng went around in a circle again, came to the door of a restaurant, and smiled, "Here, although it is not very famous, but the taste is not bad." ”

"You come here often?" the girl was a little curious,

"Occasionally. Ye Feng smiled and walked in.

The girl looked at the surroundings of the hotel with some curiosity, the exterior wall of the hotel is a two-storey giant glass curtain wall, although it is late at night, it looks like it has a strong visual effect, and during the day, let as much natural light as possible.

When Ye Feng arrived inside, he whispered something to the host, and went to the second floor with a familiar car.

The staircase is made of dark brown wood, and the lighting on the side walls is elegant and fashionable, but when you reach the second floor, it makes people's eyes suddenly brighten, dark brown wood panels as the theme color of the wall and floor, with blue ground pillars, and wood carved walls, and a variety of mirrors, cleverly matched, creating a rich sense of space.

There are also antique-looking furniture and lighting in the store, which makes people who enter the restaurant look nostalgic, comfortable sofas, and wooden tables with special characteristics, giving people a casual and comfortable feeling.

A warm, peaceful and tolerant song is played on an old-fashioned disc player, a French song, a butterfly.

"The place is really nice. The girl sat down and sighed, "I haven't been so relaxed in a long time. ”

"Oh?" Ye Feng smiled, "Actually, this restaurant has two dining areas. One is the modern zone and the other is the nostalgic zone. ”

"This must be the nostalgic district?" the girl laughed, looking a little warm, "You are not very old, why do you look like a vicissitudes of life." ”

"You don't seem to be very old, and you're a little old-fashioned. I like it every time I come here, it's quieter. Ye Feng said lightly and handed the girl the menu. "Lady Niudi, order food, but you have to pay for it yourself, and I'm just responsible for leading the way. I've only been eating for a short time, and I'm not hungry. ”

"You can help. The girl hurriedly waved her hand, "It's the first time I've been here, and I'm afraid of making a fool of myself." ”

Ye Feng was also polite. After reading it, I asked for a crab mussel asparagus salad, a roasted lamb leg with white kidney beans in spring garlic, baked lobster, and a green bean soup cooked with pan-fried duck liver.

When Ye Feng ordered, the girl kept looking at Ye Feng, and when he handed the menu to the hostess, she laughed. "Do you really think I can eat a cow?"

"It doesn't matter if you can eat it or not, I don't know what you like to eat, you can try various flavors," Ye Feng thought for a moment and added, "Anyway, I don't have to pay for it." ”

"I ate a little bit of meat. The girl sighed.

"For asking someone to speak. It takes 500 yuan to pay the fare, and the consumption here is really not high. Ye Feng smiled, leaned back a little, and sat on the chair, "Tell me, your story, five hundred yuan an hour, I just want to save you." ”

The girl smiled, "It's a blessing that any employer can find an employee like you." It's just seeming. You're more like an employer's. ”

Ye Feng just smiled. Noncommittal.

"I don't know your name yet?" the girl hesitated, "I found out." You are a complete stranger to me, the world is so wonderful, two strangers meeting in a strange country, it sounds a lot like a third-rate script. ”

"If you think that saying these things will offset your payment, I have no opinion. Ye Feng smiled, "My name is Ye Feng." ”

"Ye Feng?" the girl muttered to herself, as if she wanted to engrave the name firmly in her heart, "A nice name." Leaf maple, maple leaves, maple leaves, leaf maples, really good. ”

"As ordinary as a maple leaf. Ye Feng smiled, "In China, there are at least tens of thousands of people with this name. ”

"Don't you ask me what my name is?" the girl's disappointment flickered.

"Miss, what's your last name?"

"Why don't you take the initiative?" the girl laughed, hiding the sorrow between her brows.

"I'm not chasing you, I'm just doing things for money," Ye Feng smiled, "There's no need to take the initiative." ”

"My name is Choi Jung-ae. The girl said a name in a biting voice.

"Oh. Ye Feng didn't react, if Ye Feng is a very common name, this Cui Zhenai is undoubtedly a popular name in South Korea.

"I also like to listen to this butterfly. Cui Zhenai had a faint sadness in her words, and the topic changed, "Does Mr. Ye like it too?"

"It's okay, at least listening to this song can make us remember some things and forget some things. Ye Feng sighed a little.

"You're right," Cui Zhenai hummed along with the music, "I like these sentences the most, why is there a devil and a god? Why do wolves eat lambs? Because they have to eat too. ”

A smile appeared at the corner of Ye Feng's mouth, and he said slowly: "In late spring and March, the sheep and grass grow, and the weather is cold, ask who feeds the wolf." ”

"What did you say?" Choi Jung-ae was a little strange.

"I'm talking in Chinese, but it's similar to the lyrics of the French butterfly," Ye Feng smiled, "I remember the last four sentences and said, everyone pities the sheep, the wolf is sad alone, the heart of heaven is unpredictable, and the world is like frost." It's about the same as why the wolf eats the lamb. ”

Although Cui Zhenai's Chinese is more awkward, her memory is actually good, and the few words Ye Feng said are more rhyming, she thought about it for a while, and read slowly: "It's cold, ask who feeds wolves? Everyone pities sheep, and wolves are sad." Yes, from the perspective of human interests, it is true that wolves eat sheep, but if wolves do not eat sheep, will they starve to death?"

The hostess had already brought up the dishes that Ye Feng had ordered, and Ye Feng pointed to the dishes with a smile, "Eat, I hope you like it." ”

"What you introduced, I'm sure I'll like. Cui Zhenai said. Suddenly, his face was a little red, he lowered his head, and took a bite with some trebenaration, but he choked on one bite and coughed non-stop.

Ye Feng smiled and handed over the water and tissues, "Eat slowly, no one will grab it from you." ”

Choi Jung-ae took the tissues and water. I took a sip and stopped coughing. Slowly stirring the dishes with a spoon, he suddenly said, "Mr. Ye is a very strange person. ”

"I've only heard people say I'm handsome, but I've never heard anyone say I'm weird. Ye Feng smiled, "When I eat, I don't like to talk. ”

"But I like to talk about things at the dinner table," Cui Zhenai couldn't help but talk about it when she looked at the baked lobster. Looking at the red and white dots and green, he said in French with some emotion, it was so beautiful, he didn't look at the hospitality, he just looked at Ye Feng, "Mr. Ye, please introduce me." ”

"This dish is actually called Flame Garlic Baked Lobster," Ye Feng explained with a smile. "It's fresh lobster seasoned with butter and garlic, which is actually similar to garlic shrimp, and the red lobster shell wraps the tender white meat, with herbs, which looks very good. ”

"Flame garlic?" Cui Zhenai was a little strange, "Why can't you see fire?"

Both the entertainer and Ye Feng laughed. The usher looked at Ye Feng with an inquiring expression, "Sir, now?"

Ye Feng nodded, and poured a liquid on top of the lobster, which smelled fragrant.

"The reception was filled with vermouth, which was aromatic, light and slightly bitter, but very high in alcohol. Ye Feng explained.

"What is he going to do?" Cui Zhenai's eyes widened in curiosity, "I don't drink." You'll get drunk if you drink a little. Then I can't eat it. ”

Ye Feng smiled and made a gesture of please. The entertainer has lit the absinthe, and in an instant, the fire shines, red, white, tender and green, and it is spectacular.

Cui Zhenai was startled, and only after a while did she smile a little bitterly, slightly around the side of the table, and poked her head towards Ye Feng, "It's so romantic, it's just," he lowered his voice, not wanting the hostess to hear it, "This seems to be a bit flashy." Romance is romance, probably a French character, right?"

"Not necessarily," Ye Feng laughed, and also lowered his voice, "Absinthe can stimulate the appetite, and it is very nourishing, although the flame lobster is beautiful, it is not all for visual enjoyment, because the heat of the flame can force out the fragrance of the lobster, and the taste of absinthe seeps into the lobster, and it is full of color and flavor." ”

Cui Zhenai couldn't help but taste it, closed her eyes and chewed it, and couldn't help but sigh for a while, "Ye Feng, I really didn't waste the five hundred euros, just listening to your voice and tasting the delicious taste of France, this day is worth the fear." ”

Ye Feng just smiled when he heard this, but it was hard to say anything, the hour had arrived, and the young lady was asked to pay for it separately, and tried her best to introduce the characteristics of the rest of the dishes to Cui Zhenai, and when the dessert came to the ground, he said with a smile: "Okay, my task for today. ”

"It's not done yet. Cui Zhenai actually knew the meaning of the strings, took out a banknote from her purse and pushed it on the table, staring at Ye Feng, "Ye Feng, talk to me, okay?"

Ye Feng looked at the banknotes on the table and shrugged, "I never knew that the fees for my conversation were even higher than some lawyers. ”

When she heard the word lawyer, Cui Zhenai's face changed, and she covered up the past in an instant, "But talking to you makes people feel happy, but it's much more pleasant than talking to those lawyers." ”

The characteristics of each dish are very distinct and delicious, Cui Zhenai didn't eat a cow, but she was very full, and when the dessert came up, she couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Ye Feng, it seems that it really doesn't cost you money, but I can't eat it." ”

"The desserts here are also more famous, fig French sweet buns, it should be in other countries, there is no such authentic," Ye Feng spared no effort to introduce, even more serious than the introduction of the reception, the receptionist looked at him just smiled, there was a strange taste in his eyes, "This is made of natural honey, with figs, it feels fresh and pleasant, and with soft cheese, hazelnuts, raisins, the taste is sweet and sour, many people like it." ”

Although she felt very full, Cui Zhenai couldn't help but taste it when she heard Ye Feng's introduction, but suddenly sighed, "Can you pack it?"

Although it was a sigh, there was a smile between the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, which was completely different from when Ye Feng first saw him, she seemed to have finally been temporarily relieved from the thrill, and she also enjoyed this mood and relaxation.

"Eat slowly, not in a hurry. Ye Feng smiled, "Anyway, it's late to close here, so it's not troublesome to find a hotel." ”

Cui Zhenai's face seemed to turn red again, "Ye Feng, you may not know me, but you must have heard of the Korean Contemporary Company." ”

"Oh?" Ye Feng nodded, "I've indeed heard this, its business is mainly in hotels, I heard that it has hotels all over Asia, and the scale is very large. It seems that when I have time, I am staying in a contemporary hotel. ”

"I am the daughter of Chairman Choi Seung-hee, my own daughter. Choi Jung-ae's voice was low.

"Oh?" Ye Feng was not surprised, it was five hundred euros at hand, and the value would not be too low.

"Actually, it's very strange, I know you now, but it's only a few hours," Cui Zhenai smiled a little bitterly, "I feel that you are the same as my good friend, maybe you have this kind of trusting charm, I really don't know who you are, but I feel that you are not an ordinary person, although you look stingy, in fact, you will never care about this money, you will cost tens of thousands of dollars for a random Piaget watch, how can you care about this little money?"

"A small amount of money is not small, there is a saying in China, gather sand into a tower, and gather armpits into a fur. Ye Feng admired Cui Zhenai's carefulness a little, "If I stay with Miss Cui any longer, it will not be a problem for me to buy a watch after I earn it." ”

"Ye Feng, you're kidding," Cui Zhenai shook her head with a wry smile, "I seem to trust you very much now, but I trust you because I don't know you, isn't it funny?" I know you're wearing a pair of leather shoes that look ordinary, but I know they're handmade by top Italian designers. It's never going to be more than a hundred pairs a year, but I really haven't heard of your name, so that's fine, after all, we're still friends today, aren't we?

"Miss Cui sounds pessimistic?" Ye Feng frowned.

Cui Zhenai smiled bitterly, "The first time I came here, to be honest, it was a friend who came to find my father, I let one of my most trusted housekeepers stay in the country, but I went here alone, it's not that I disdain to be with them, it's just because, it's hard for me to trust others." ”

"Oh?" Ye Feng laughed, "It sounds like Miss Cui is in a lot of trouble. ”

"For Ye Feng, it may not matter, but for me, it is a big trouble, my father passed away a week ago. ”

"Oh, I'm sorry to remind you of a sad past. Ye Feng was a little surprised.

"You are too polite, I took the initiative to mention these, what are you sorry for," Cui Zhenai pursed her lips, "Too modest is a bit hypocritical, and too polite is the outside." ”

"It seems that you understand the essence of the Chinese Chinese dialect better," Ye Feng smiled: "It's just that your father has passed away, and most of the things left behind are many things that you need to deal with, at this time, what are you doing in Paris, France?"

"I can't help myself. Cui Zhenai smiled a little wryly and was a little angry, "Originally, there is a saying in China that family ugliness should not be publicized, but I really can't help but say it in front of an outsider, because I don't know who else will listen to me except Ye Feng." I just don't know if you're interested in listening?"

"Listen up. Ye Feng nodded.

"My father, Choi Seung-hee, had only one daughter like me, and he always treated me like a jewel in the palm of his hand, and he let me go to the best university in Korea and accept the first-class business management philosophy, just so that I could one day inherit his career. In fact, people like me were born destined for this fate, but I found it very challenging and wanted to share part of the work for my father. But what he didn't expect was that he suddenly had a heart attack last week, and the rescue was ineffective, and he passed away. ”

When Cui Zhenai said this, her expression suddenly became very strange.
