Chapter 61: You Are My Life's Biggest Customer
After driving for more than half an hour, Xiaoying stopped the car, and when he turned around and saw He Cheng who was sleeping soundly in the back seat, Xiaoying did not wake him up, but locked the car and put the driver's seat flat, and also lay down and squinted his eyes.
It gradually got dark, and He Cheng woke up.
"Uncle! You're awake! Xiaoying had already woken up and was playing with her phone in the car.
"Well, I've been asleep for a long time, it's getting dark, where are we?"
"Where to eat, get out of the car!" Xiaoying said and put away the phone, and then opened the car door for He Cheng.
He Cheng got out of the car and found that there was a brilliant light in front of him. Looking up at the Western restaurant called "Wang Pin Formosa Steak" where the car was parked, judging from the location and decoration of this store, He Cheng could judge at a glance that this was definitely a high-end restaurant.
"Hungry! Don't be stunned! Let's go inside! Xiaoying carried the bag and walked inside with He Cheng.
He Cheng wanted to ask Xiaoying why he came to such a high-end restaurant to eat, but thinking about it, he had been with Xiaoying for so long and had not officially come out for a meal, so he felt a little sorry and simply didn't ask.
"Welcome, how many gentlemen are there?" The hostess is dressed in a Western-style restaurant, but she speaks Chinese, which is very standard.
"Three!" He Cheng replied without thinking.
"Both!" The little shadow and the little bird snuggled up to He Cheng and corrected softly.
"Huh?!" He Cheng stared at Xiaoying suspiciously, but he didn't speak again, and walked towards the restaurant behind Miss Etiquette.
At this moment, it is dinner time, and there are many people in the restaurant. When He Cheng and Xiaoying followed the etiquette and walked inside. At this moment, almost all the people eating in the restaurant raised their heads, and all eyes were focused on them, and handsome men and beautiful women dressed beautifully always attracted people's eyes. However, He Cheng was very unaccustomed to this kind of high-profile situation, and he suddenly became a little at a loss, and his walking was a little stiff. Xiaoying noticed his change, tightened his hands in the crook of He Cheng's arms, and then gave He Cheng an encouraging look, and then took He Cheng and walked inside generously.
When Xiaoying took He Cheng's hand and passed by a table where a foreigner was sitting, a young foreigner stood up directly, nodded and smiled and said to Xiaoying: "Hi! Youaresopretty. ๏ผโ
โThankyou!โ Xiaoying smiled and nodded, and replied in English.
Yourmalepartnerisalsoveryhandsome. The handsome foreign guy glanced at He Cheng and said a lot of words, He Cheng didn't understand a word, just stared at him stupidly.
I'msorry, buthedoesn'tspeakEnglish. He Cheng understood some words and heard a general meaning.
After Xiaoying chatted with this handsome foreigner in very fluent English, He Cheng stood aside as if listening to a book from heaven, and he felt a little embarrassed that he was standing between the two like a deaf and dumb person. But he was very unhappy in his heart, and he was entangled before he could eat, but fortunately, there was no squint in the eyes of the foreigner, so he endured it.
"Excuseme.SorryIshouldgo. Xiaoying glanced back at He Cheng, who was staring at the foreigner with hostile eyes, and said to the foreigner with a smile.
โOh! Ye, I'mreallysorry, yougoahead! The foreigner said to Xiaoying apologetically. Then he took out a business card from his body and handed it to Xiaoying, who politely took it and stuffed it into his bag.
Xiaoying nodded to him again, took He Cheng's hand and followed behind Miss Manners. For the foreigner, He Cheng didn't have a good face, and turned around and glared at the foreigner who had been staring at Xiaoying while walking. He Cheng thought to himself, your sister, if you had eaten barbecue at a food stall, you would have fought a long time ago, and He Cheng finally listened to the foreigner say "Oh yes! The more I think about it, the more angry I become, your sister, isn't this the only classic line of the hero and heroine in the "Western blockbuster", the meaning is similar to the "flax fall" in Little Japan.
"What do you think?" Xiaoying gently pushed He Cheng, who was still staring at the foreigner, and asked.
"What did he just say? I look at the hue on his face, like a hooligan! He Cheng asked Xiaoying very unhappily.
"Hehe" Hearing this, Xiaoying couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.
"What are you laughing at? Am I wrong? The foreigner is really wonderful, he is really cowardly, he dares to stop you when I am by your side, if I am not there" He Cheng didn't dare to think about it anymore.
"Hehe, uncle, this is the custom of other people's people," Xiaoying explained.
"Customs? When you see that other beauties are beautiful, you stop and ask, this is also a custom? Why doesn't he have this habit on the old man? This is pure hooliganism! They all say that foreign gentlemen, I see, it's complete nonsense, what kind of gentleman is this hooligan blatantly talking about" He Cheng seemed to be jealous, and he talked endlessly.
Although He Cheng's voice was small, the table man near him and the lady of etiquette could hear it clearly. There were two women at a table nearby, and they couldn't help but laugh when they heard He Cheng's strange talk, but they both tried their best to restrain their voices.
"Laugh if you want! Why are you holding back so hard! He Cheng whispered to the two beauties, looking bad. The beautiful girls glanced at each other, then stared at He Cheng deadly, but stopped laughing.
"I'm sorry!" Xiaoying apologized to the two girls, and then pushed He Cheng away.
"Hey, hey!" He Cheng suddenly felt some pain in the soft flesh of his waist, glanced back at Xiaoying, and approached her ear with some smugness: "Jealous?" Do I look like a hooligan? Hehe! โ
"By the way, what did that foreigner tell you just now?" He Cheng suddenly remembered.
"I really made you right just now, this foreign friend stopped me not for me, but for you! He said you're handsome and wants to be friends with you! โ
"How is that possible?"
"It's true! He also said that he fell in love with you at first sight! But I politely refused, I said, you already have a girlfriend, hehe! โ
"Stop, you girl, do you want me to eat?"
"Hee-hee!"
After that, the two sat down in an empty seat with Miss Manners. The waiter brought the menu, He Cheng didn't even look at it and threw it to Xiaoying, he had never eaten Western food, let alone ordered, so he simply didn't order, just waited to eat, Xiaoying smiled, took the menu and finished ordering. During the period, he asked He Cheng how much cooked steak he wanted, He Cheng said that he wanted to be fully cooked, Xiaoying told him that he couldn't bite fully cooked, and suggested that he should be medium-rare or medium-cooked, He Cheng said that it would be good to let her be in charge, and Xiaoying asked him for medium-rare.
"Didn't you say you wanted to meet your clients?" Sitting in the cubicle, He Cheng suddenly remembered.
"My client is here!"
"Who is it? Where is it? He Cheng stood up and looked around.
"Far away, close at hand!" Xiaoying looked at He Cheng affectionately.
"Huh?!"
"You come with me!" Xiaoying didn't speak, and pulled He Cheng to the bathroom.
Xiaoying pulled He Cheng to stand in front of the big mirror outside the bathroom, then turned behind He Cheng, hugged him from behind, pointed to the straight suit in the mirror, and the energetic He Cheng said softly: "He is my customer, the most important customer in my life!" After speaking, he hugged He Cheng with both hands.
He Cheng suddenly realized, and instantly understood everything today, he had always been worried about Xiaoying being so good to this so-called customer, it turned out that at this moment he was desperately trying not to let tears flow.
After a long time, Xiaoying leaned her face against He Cheng's back and whispered: "I'm sorry, uncle, everything was bought for you today, I didn't tell you the truth at first, I was afraid"
"I know, thank you, girl!" He Cheng turned around and hugged Xiaoying tightly.
"Hungry, go back!"
After the two washed their hands, they returned to their seats, and the waiter had already opened the red wine and sobered up, and poured a small glass for each of them.
"Come, to the most important customer in my life!" Xiaoying said, holding up the wine glass.
"Thank you! Girl! He Cheng clinked glasses with Xiaoying, raised his head and drank it all.
"Huh!" Xiaoying saw that He Cheng drank red wine as if he was drinking beer, and he also raised his head and drank it all.
After that, the two chatted while eating and drinking, Xiaoying taught He Cheng some things to pay attention to in the Western restaurant, such as drinking red wine and not toasting, when cutting beef, you should use your right hand to hold a fork in your left hand, and He Cheng also learned while listening.
"Hey, it's so troublesome, it's not cool at all!" He Cheng saw that Xiaoying was eating so gently, which made him feel very tired. In an instant, he returned to his true colors, cut a large piece of beef in half with a knife and stuffed it into his mouth, pouring red wine into his mouth as he chewed.
"Huh!" Xiaoying just smiled and watched him eat, eating so deliciously.
After eating, Xiaoying said that he couldn't drive after drinking, and He Cheng said that he would come and see it, it was okay to drink so much wine, but Xiaoying strongly vetoed it. Xiaoying said that she was not worried about being arrested by the traffic police, but afraid of accidents, and she wanted He Cheng to accompany her safely for the rest of her life.
He Cheng fell silent for a moment, and then the two slipped to a nearby movie theater to watch a movie, and two hours later, the two happily drove home.
The first thing Xiaoying did when she came back was to put all the books she bought back today into the bookcase, and then selected a book called "Beyond Inferiority" and handed it to He Cheng and said: "Uncle, from today onwards, you put the novels and TV series you are reading now, take a good look at this book first, and write me a piece of experience after reading it." โ
"Ahh No way!? He Cheng's scalp was tingling. At that time, the most he wrote about was "review".
"Hehe, I'm kidding you, forget about the experience, but you have to watch it carefully!"
"Yes! I know! He Cheng took the book and felt heavy in his hand.
