Chapter 715: Trouble is coming
Lin Fan and Emily sat face to face in the restaurant, he leaned back comfortably, ordered an exclusive secret sauce duck, a truffle sauce and a pan-fried Australian tender shoulder steak, beef is the best Wagyu tender shoulder, and finally ordered a bottle of Bordeaux red wine.
Wagyu is the highest quality breed of beef cattle, expensive, and although native to Japan, it is also farmed in Australia, which is one of the essential high-end ingredients in Australia's top restaurants.
The English name of the restaurant Lin Fan chose is RuYi ModernChinese, which translates to Ruyi Fashion Chinese Restaurant, and the dishes in it are a fusion of Chinese and Western deliciousness, and it is the first Chinese restaurant to enter the mainstream high-end restaurant industry in Australia.
Of course, the price of a meal here is also quite top-notch, but for Lin Fan and Emily, money doesn't mean much.
Most of the people who come here to dine here are Australia's wealthier white groups, of course, there are also a small number of Chinese, Lin Fan sat there and looked around, about a third of the guests were Asian.
When Lin Fan and Emily sat together, the eyes of the Chinese people who were dining around them showed a little surprise, and the Australian whites had a vague hostility in their eyes.
Lin Fan's senses were very sensitive, and less than three minutes after he sat down, he at least heard a few whispered complaints: "Damn, what the hell, such a beautiful Caucasian woman shouldn't be with an Asian, even if he has money." ”
Of course, Lin Fan will not care about these whispered discussions in private, most of the people who come to eat here, whether they are white or Asian, are well-educated, and even if it is difficult for those white men to accept this picture, they will not make blatant faux pas.
Through his travels in Europe, the United States and Australia during this time, Lin Fan clearly felt that although the topic of racial discrimination was a taboo in the Western world, it seemed to be focused on black people in comparison.
The status of Chinese Americans in Europe, North America and Australia is much lower than that of blacks, of course, this is not about economic status, but about social status.
Although most white people claim that they are not racists, in Lin Fan's eyes, almost all white people are racists, but most of them will hide their inner thoughts.
Emily, who was on the other side, smiled lightly at Lin Fan and whispered, "Hey, Lin Fan, it seems that you are not welcome here?" ”
Lin Fan raised his eyebrows and responded with a smile: "At least they didn't provoke directly, otherwise, I don't think I would mind moving my hands and feet before leaving." ”
Emily smiled and nodded, "This is the Lin Fan I know, you know, what I appreciate the most is that you have no scruples." ”
Next, the two began to eat slowly, although Lin Fan was not afraid of things, but he was not willing to cause trouble for nothing.
The meal lasted for more than half an hour, and just as Lin Fan wanted to order some more desserts after the meal, a waiter suddenly walked up to him.
"Hello sir, I was asked to deliver a newspaper to you." The waiter held a newspaper in both hands and respectfully placed it on Lin Fan's table.
Lin Fan had some doubts in his heart, looked at the waiter and asked, "Excuse me, it was the gentleman who gave you the explanation, can you invite him over?" ”
"I'm sorry, but the gentleman gave me the newspaper and left." The waiter smiled apologetically and replied politely.
Lin Fan nodded, picked up the newspaper on the table casually, and glanced at it gently, suddenly his face changed, and his originally calm and breezy expression suddenly became solemn.
I saw a missing person notice published in a Chinese newspaper, on which were photos of two Asian women, one was Yang Xiaomo, who had a close relationship with Lin Fan, and the other was his cheap sister-in-law Mei Ningxue.
"Does the gentleman who gave you the newspaper have any explanation?" Lin Fan suppressed the anger in his heart, glanced up at the waiter, and asked lightly.
Although he deliberately restrained his momentum, there was still an unquestionable majesty in this faint question, making the waiter next to him feel as if he was facing a verdict.
"Uh, that, that......" The waiter swallowed dryly, he didn't know why he was so nervous, he couldn't even speak clearly, the person in front of him seemed to change in an instant, and his expression of not being angry and arrogant made him can't help but rise a wisp of fear.
"The man didn't say anything, just asked me to ......, let me hand the newspaper to you...... and then ......, and then he gave me a tip......" The service officer broke out in a cold sweat and said what had just happened.
Emily on the other side could see that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and she looked at Lin Fan with an inquiring gaze, obviously she was also very concerned about what was going on.
Lin Fan waved his hand, took out a banknote from the pocket of his clothes, put it on the table, and waved his hand to the waiter, signaling that the other party could go.
The waiter turned around and walked away as if he had been pardoned, and even forgot to take the money on the table, and when he looked at the man in front of him just now, he couldn't help but be terrified, and he wanted to leave immediately, but he didn't dare to move.
"You forgot to take your tip." Lin Fan's voice sounded, with a hint of indifference in his tone, and a murderous aura began to condense in his eyes.
The waiter wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, turned around with difficulty, looked at Lin Fan cautiously, and reached out to get the banknotes on the table tremblingly.
When the waiter took the money away, Emily leaned forward and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" Lin Fan, did you have any problems with the waiter just now? ”
Lin Fan shook his head, handed the newspaper to Emily, and said in a low voice: "He should be fine, but it seems that my trouble is coming again." ”
Emily took the newspaper and saw Yang Xiaomo's photo at a glance, although the intersection of the two was not so pleasant at the beginning, but she still had a certain impression of this girl.
"Hmph, it's still the same old thing, these people are poor in donkey skills." Lin Fan snorted coldly and commented in a tone with a hint of anger.
Emily heard this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across her face, she and her accomplices had also used similar techniques at the beginning, and the purpose was exactly the same, that is, to lure Lin Fan out.
"What are you going to do? I advise you to think clearly, the reason why they are doing this must be to force you to show up, and the other party must have set a trap for you to pass. ”
Emily stared at Lin Fan tightly, wanting to get an answer from the other party's mouth.
