Chapter 111: Halfway to Kill the Way and Bite the Gold (2-in-1)
Jin Wenlu deliberately took Wang Juncheng's card and booked a seat in a membership-only Western restaurant in advance. Pen & Fun & Court www.biquge.info This western restaurant is most famous for its steaks, especially the limited supply of Kobe steak, which attracts the gourmets in the social circle of T City.
Jin Wenlu sat in a small semi-partitioned box, and the sound of the piano playing on the spot flowed like water in the restaurant, which was not noisy and could adjust the atmosphere well. But Jin Wenlu was a little restless, he wasn't sure how to face Huang Mingyue at that time. Did she conform to her heart, make a cold and polite gesture, or provoke her sensitive nerves with great courtesy to Huang Anna?
The phone rang.
Jin Wenlu couldn't be reserved, and reflexively picked up the phone.
"Where?"
Jin Wenlu breathed a sigh of relief, and was slightly disappointed in her heart: "Outside." β
"Where?" Wang Juncheng insisted.
"Siti."
Wang Juncheng's tone became a little subtle: "Dating someone? β
"No, no." Jin Wenlu didn't know why she was stuttering.
"Haven't you eaten yet? Then I'll come here, you estimate that the time is almost up and give me a seven-ripe Kobe steak, and I don't have time to go, and I really have some thoughts. β
"Mom-" Jin Wenlu dragged out, almost begging. From childhood to adulthood, no matter what he did, he couldn't hide it from Wang Juncheng's eyes.
A hearty laugh came from the phone: "You stinky boy pretend to be me, you don't have enough Taoism and you have to cultivate again!" Cut, who is rare with your wilting steak, if you really know how to eat, you would have taken a plane to Japan to eat a fresh one. β
"Yes, yes!"
"Don't be sloppy with me, I know you're a beautiful woman at night." Wang Juncheng couldn't help but show off in front of his son, "Your father is back, and the two of us will have a candlelight dinner in the evening, just because I'm afraid that your kid will come over and be a light bulb." Well, I'm relieved! β
Jin Wenlu couldn't cry or laugh, and was about to say something, when he suddenly found that the waiter was leading the two people with Nana to come to him, it was the Huang family sisters.
Jin Wenlu hurriedly closed the line and stood up.
Huang Anna walked in front, and her whole body was extremely bright; Huang Mingyue followed behind, but was covered by Huang Anna in front of her, although she also had a slight smile on her face, but Jin Wenlu, who was familiar with her, knew at a glance that it was a reluctant smile.
"Miss Huang!"
Jin Wenlu took a step forward on the road, trying to focus on tonight's protagonist, Huang Anna.
Huang Anna smiled lightly: "I'm sorry to keep you waiting." β
Jin Wenlu's afterglow swept Huang Mingyue behind her, and she was dressed better than the first few times, but the moss-green skirt clearly did not line her, and it was even more inconspicuous under the half-bright and half-ambiguous lighting specially created by the Western restaurant. But Huang Anna, who was dressed in a small white dress, was set off by her extraordinarily delicate and cute.
"I've only been here for a while." Jin Wenlu diligently pulled out a chair for Huang Anna. He had already calculated it, he booked a place for four people, just enough to sit opposite the two of them, and took the opportunity to carefully observe Huang Mingyue's reaction.
Huang Anna was not in a hurry to sit down, glanced back at Huang Mingyue who was wooden, and said with a smile: "I haven't discussed it with the host, so I brought someone over without authorization." Lawyer Jin doesn't have to pay for it, right? She smiled so brightly that her smile seemed to sparkle. But in front of Jin Wenlu, even if she can laugh with diamonds, he probably won't pay attention to it.
Jin Wenlu's eyebrows raised, did he mean Huang Mingyue? didn't wait for him to pave the way last night, didn't Huang Anna herself propose to bring Huang Mingyue with her?
Celebrities in T City are not easy to eat alone with men rashly, and if they are seen by a tabloid reporter and published in the newspapers another day, even if they are very good-looking, I am afraid that they will be subject to rumors - but if you bring one more, you will be fine with dinner for three people.
Huang Mingyue kept her eyes down, trying her best to avoid eye contact with Jin Wenlu.
Since the morning, Huang Anna has been courteous and attentive, and her sister has been calling non-stop, begging her to accompany her to a dinner, and she knows that nothing good is good. It's not self-inflicted, the woman's sixth sense tells him that people who are so proud of Jin Wenlu won't let go so easily.
After weighing it repeatedly, Huang Mingyue agreed.
She always has to give him a chance, so that he can dissipate the anger in his heart, and it can be regarded as a little mercy to him for her after breaking up in his previous life.
It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, and they will bite the gold halfway......
Before Jin Wenlu could think about it, suddenly a personable figure appeared beside Huang Mingyue, and his eyes couldn't help but widen.
Pan Jicheng was dressed in a high-end gray suit, but he stuffed a colorful silk scarf at the neckline, and immediately had that yuppie taste.
"Lawyer Jin, I'm not invited."
Jin Wenlu quickly adjusted, although she was unhappy, she still said haha: "Pan Dashao, you are a busy person, I can't even invite you." They are not living people, and the more people there are, the more lively they are. β
Huang Anna said apologetically: "Originally, I asked Lao Wang to send us over, but I didn't expect a little trouble on the way, and the car was not repaired after half a day." β
"Why didn't you call me?" Jin Wenlu didn't believe this statement, the Huang family had a big business, and it was impossible to have only one car.
"What's so embarrassing?" Huang Anna frowned slightly, "I'm afraid of missing the appointment, so I'm ready to take a taxi." "She's so big, she hasn't really been in a taxi except in the UK! The thought of her clothes specially prepared for tonight's date and sitting in a taxi where everyone sits, makes my scalp tingle a little when I think about it.
"Coincidentally, I just called Mingyue to temporarily act as a flower messenger." Pan Jicheng smiled gracefully, and put one hand on Huang Mingyue's arm weakly.
Huang Mingyue had to continue to smile, and Pan Jicheng's palm was only separated from her arm by a thin layer of fabric, which made her feel physiological disgust from the bottom of her heart. However, she tried her best to endure it, and the smile on her face was even more unruly.
Forbearanceβisn't that what she's going to do tonight?"
It took a lot of effort for Jin Wenlu to take his eyes off Jin Wenlu's restless hand. He called her "Mingyue", when did they become so close? He called her? Are they in constant contact privately?
"That's it, thanks to my cousin, otherwise I would have missed the appointment." Huang Anna is not full of confidence that Jin Wenlu will always wait for her. Originally, she was still a little annoyed that Pan Jicheng wanted to come over together, but after thinking about it, Huang Mingyue was like a wooden man, and Jin Wenlu had to take care of the two of them, where would she have time to discover her charm? Now it's okay, with my cousin on the side to adjust the atmosphere, even a little embarrassment can be invisible.
Besides, my cousin's mind is obviously on Huang Mingyue. Their cousins have their own place, which can be described as the best of both worlds.
Jin Wenlu really doesn't welcome Pan Jicheng as an uninvited guest, but even if he is unhappy, he has to get by on face.
"Sit down and talk!" How are these four people going to sit?
Before Jin Wenlu could react, Pan Jicheng naturally helped Huang Mingyue weakly, led her to the dining table, and very gentlemanly pulled out the chair inside.
Huang Mingyue paused, nodded at Pan Jicheng, and sat down gently.
Pan Jicheng was not polite, he pulled out the chair beside Huang Mingyue and sat down loudly.
Jin Wenlu couldn't help but feel a little angry, but Pan Jicheng Zhuyu was in front of him, so he had to learn from him. He gently pulled away the chair in the back and sat down, "Please!" β
Huang Anna smiled with satisfaction, brushed her skirt with both hands, and sat down in a variety of styles, not forgetting to fold her slender legs into the most beautiful posture.
Jin Wenlu sat down opposite Pan Jicheng in a daze.
The four of them stared at each other, a little embarrassed for a while. Fortunately, the waiter delivered a beautiful menu at the right time, which broke the strange aura of the four-person combination.
Huang Mingyue buried her face in the thick and heavy menu, and the three next to her were all ghosts, why shouldn't she herself? Ever since Pan Jicheng appeared in his luxury car, Huang Mingyue knew that the Hongmen banquet she had to go to that night would soon become more complicated.
None of the mouth-watering steak photos taken by top photographers made it to her. Huang Mingyue just used the movements of flipping, flipping, and flipping to resolve the uneasiness in her heart.
"What do you want to eat?" The host, Jin Wenlu, spoke.
"Naturally, I came to Xiti to eat steak." Huang Anna put down the menu and was entangled and distressed, "But people are losing weight!" β
"If you eat too little, it won't be beautiful if you lose it." Jin Wenlu had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue to say the established lines.
"Really?" Huang Anna smiled sweetly, turned her head to look at her slender arm at Jin Wenlu's side, "When I was in the UK, I played tennis three or twice a week, and the most sport I returned to China was to plant flowers and weeds for my mother." "Xiti's light is just right, Jin Wenlu shouldn't ignore her white and flawless skin and bright eyes!
"I can't tell you can play tennis!" Jin Wenlu felt that her surprise was slightly exaggerated. Huang Anna is powerful enough to quietly lead the topic in the direction she wants.
Huang Anna said proudly: "I also participated in the competition on behalf of the academy!" If she hadn't made a British boyfriend who loves to play tennis during her study tour, her level would only be enough to put on a beautiful tennis uniform and pose a few beautiful poses.
"Then find a time to talk." Jin Wenlu said perfunctorily.
"I want the third package." Anna Huang pushed the menu.
"Me too."
Huang Anna smiled shyly, and couldn't help but glance at Jin Wenlu, but saw Jin Wenlu paying attention to Huang Mingyue, who was silent. Huang Anna couldn't help frowning. I knew that Jin Wenlu was so knowledgeable and interesting, so I wouldn't have brought Huang Mingyue out, and I don't know if she had eaten steak, and she would be embarrassed when the time came.
"What does Miss Huang want?" Jin Wenlu couldn't help it after all.
Huang Mingyue panicked, and squeezed out a stiff smile crampedly, the thick and heavy menu was almost impossible to hold.
Pan Jicheng thoughtfully took the menu and closed it without looking.
"I'll do it for her. Mingyue should be the first time to come here, and I don't know what is delicious and what is not delicious in this shop. Pan Jicheng glanced at Huang Mingyue almost dotingly, "Xiti's menu is so full of bells and whistles that it's almost inlaid with gold leaf." β
"Yes!" The waiter standing next to him smiled and was taught. Those who can enter and exit Xiti are either rich or expensive, and the guests cannot but listen to their words.
Jin Wenlu was disgusted as if she had swallowed a maggot alive.
Pan Jicheng gently tapped the table with the knuckle of his index finger and said, "On the last Kobe steak, choose a thin slice and fry it until eight ripe, don't put too much black pepper." Then he turned his face sideways and said to Huang Mingyue almost like a whisper: "This is the best Kobe steak, and there are a few other good ones, I'll take you to try it slowly next time." β
Huang Mingyue's ears were slightly hot. What is this Pan Jicheng's intentions, does he need to be so ambiguous?
"Hmm." She could only make a voice as low as a gnat.
But Huang Anna came to joke again: "My cousin is eccentric, and if there is something delicious, I only bring my sister, not me!" β
Pan Jicheng hurriedly explained to the waiter: "I want the No. 2 set with more lemon juice." Then he turned his head and said, half seriously and half jokingly: "Didn't I just hear you say that you want to lose weight?" Besides, I'll have to leave the opportunity to take care of you to Lawyer Kim. β
Huang Anna was silent.
Huang Mingyue didn't dare to say anything, she didn't know how to come and go, she made a pair with Pan Jicheng. Huang Anna thinks so, Jin Wenlu probably thinks so too!
That's it! Just let him misunderstand! It's better than leaving hopeless thoughts, anyway, the combination they have now is a copy of their previous life.
Jin Wenlu's face was a little ugly, and he even secretly compared himself with Pan Jicheng in his heart. Unless Huang Mingyue is blind, she will give up herself and throw herself into Pan Jicheng's arms. Pan Jicheng is a well-known prodigal in the social circle of T City, but then again, his love history is not necessarily a blank slate.
Huang Mingyue's Kobe steak came up first.
Pan Jicheng motioned for the waiter to put the steak in front of him, and after carefully examining the steak with a critical gaze, he nodded with satisfaction.
"Cousin, don't be confused, you ordered this for your sister."
Pan Jicheng smiled and didn't say anything, just skillfully handled the knife and fork, followed the texture of the beef, cut the steak into small pieces suitable for the mouth, and then carefully served the plate in front of Huang Mingyue.
"Mingyue, you taste it, this steak is more tender than last time, you should like it."
Huang Mingyue wailed in her heart, she knew that there were two hot eyes on the other side that surrounded her whole body. Under Pan Jicheng's expectant gaze, she picked up a fork and forked a piece of steak into her mouth, and chewed it a few times mechanically: "It's delicious." β
Pan Jicheng smiled with satisfaction.
Huang Anna pursed her lips secretly, no wonder there is never a shortage of women around her cousin, which woman can bear such thoughtfulness.
Jin Wenlu's eyes seemed to be on fire.
Last time? How many times did they eat together alone? (To be continued.) )
