Chapter 13 The Zhou family has a woman who has just grown up
Lin Shu, Lin Xi, father and son came to thank Cheng Long this time.
Originally, Lin Xi wanted to come alone, but after Lin Shu heard about it, he also wanted to meet this promising chef.
Don't see Cheng Long talking in the kitchen, but standing in front of a big celebrity like Lin Shu, he actually showed a bit of rare restraint, and when he shook hands, he was so panicked that he handed both hands together.
Lin Shu didn't think there was anything wrong with this, but he felt that Cheng Long's hand strength was not small, and he thought that this chef's knife skills should be good.
"Mr. Chen, thanks to your help that day, I came to repay your money today."
"Where, where." Cheng Long shook his head politely.
Lin Xi handed over the original amount of money owed to Cheng Long, and the thin two hundred-yuan Hong Kong bills didn't need to be counted, Cheng Long took it and put it in his pocket without looking at it.
Rather than getting back the two hundred yuan, Cheng Long hoped to take this opportunity to make friends with Lin Shu's father and son.
The popularity of "The Peerless Twins" made Cheng Long realize that Lin Shu would soon return to the ranks of first-line martial arts novel writers, and what Lin Xi said to him that day, Cheng Long never forgot it.
In recent years, more and more martial arts novels have been adapted into movies and TV series, at first it was simply to sell copyrights, but after seeing that this industry is very profitable, some novel authors have opened film and television companies themselves.
Cheng Long didn't know if Lin Shu would embark on this path in the future, but it was always good to take the next good fate in advance.
Both sides said a few polite words, and seeing that Lin Shu was not interested in talking, Lin Xi squeezed his eyes at Cheng Long, signaling that he would go to him alone later.
Cheng Longtui said that there was still something in the kitchen and took the initiative to leave, and before leaving, he took the initiative to cover the cost of Lin Shu's father and son's meal.
Lin Shuzhi shook his head and said, "Mr. Chen, thank you for your kindness, but I really don't need to, because we are here today, first, to thank you for helping Xizai out of the siege last time, and secondly, we also invited other people to come over for dinner, since I am a treat, how can I still let you pay the bill?" ”
Cheng Long wanted to say that Lin Shu's friend was his friend, but when he saw Lin Xi shaking his head behind Lin Shu, he realized that the relationship between the two parties was not so familiar, which made him no longer insist.
After Cheng Long left, Lin Shu asked Lin Xi, "Is your friend really a chef?" ”
Lin Xi put down the teacup in his hand and raised his head to look at his father: "What's wrong?" ”
"It stands to reason that a chef wouldn't have such a utilitarian mind." Lin Shu picked up the teacup, then suddenly thought of something, looked up and asked, "Do you have anything else to hide from me?" ”
"This person is from a martial arts background, and he has run tricks in Bruce Lee movies before." Lin Xi briefly talked about the process of his acquaintance with Cheng Long, especially mentioning that Cheng Long was a fan of Lin Shu's books.
Lin Shu glared at Lin Xi angrily, "Don't give me a flower gun, you have nothing to do with him, you need to introduce me so hard?" ”
Lin Xi did have another purpose for getting acquainted with Cheng Long, but now he wouldn't admit it.
"Believe it or not!"
After saying this, Lin Xi continued to bow his head and drink tea, no longer stubbling with Lin Shu.
The father and son sat and waited for about ten minutes, and a mother and daughter walked in at the door.
Lin Xi's eyes were sharp, and he recognized that the person was the guest they were waiting for, and immediately stood up and waved over there enthusiastically.
"Mama Chen, here!"
The waiter led the mother and daughter towards this side, Lin Xi's gaze swept over Chen's mother, and then fell on the thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl behind her.
It seems to feel that someone is looking at herself, the girl's face is red like blood, and the pink face is delicate, and because it is the first time to go to this kind of high-end restaurant, her eyes are dodging and she does not dare to look around, but it is even more charming and moving, and her whole body exudes a weak temperament that I see pity.
Lin Xi was stunned all of a sudden, not because of the girl's extremely beautiful face, but because he actually recognized this face.
"Mr. Lin, this is my daughter ...... Comemi"
Chen's mother said hello to Lin Shu, who stood up, and then introduced her daughter behind her.
"Xiao Min has grown so big?" Lin Shu looked Chen's mother daughter up and down a few times, smiled and beckoned the mother and daughter to sit down, and did not forget to joke: "You were only a little older when your mother took you to my house last time, do you still have an impression?" ”
The girl shook her head shyly, not daring to look directly at Lin Shu.
"This kid is introverted and doesn't speak much, don't mind Mr. Lin." Chen's mother explained for her daughter on the side.
Lin Shu waved his hand to signal that he was out of the way, and after sitting down, he realized that Lin Xi's eyes beside him had been staring at Chen's mother's daughter's face, and he didn't even blink, and he suddenly felt embarrassed, so he coughed.
Lin Xi came back to her senses at this time, thinking that this thing was really a coincidence, who wanted to be a nanny in her own home for almost ten years, and Chen's mother, who was actually the mother of Zhou Comin, the future "head of the jade girl" in the Hong Kong entertainment industry.
Lin Shu couldn't help but shake his head in his heart, he thought that Lin Xi had matured after this period of tempering, but he didn't expect that the young man's heart was still the same, and he couldn't take his eyes off when he saw a beautiful girl.
Thinking of this, Lin Shu couldn't help but look at the girl sitting opposite him twice.
I have to admit that this girl is indeed a beautiful embryo, although she is still young and suppresses the display of other temperaments on her body, but with this youth and beauty alone, she can easily capture the attention of many people.
"Xiao Min is really getting more and more beautiful, I can't compare to those stars on TV."
Although he was dissatisfied with the pig-like look on his son's face, Lin Shu's praise for the girl was indeed from the heart.
Seeing that Zhou Yanmin's face turned red, Lin Shu no longer continued to embarrass her, and took the initiative to chat with Chen's mother about other topics.
When the meal was served, Lin Shu stood up with his wine glass.
"Mother Chen, you help me take care of my family and take care of Xizai, especially in the past two years, I have had some financial problems and have not been able to continue to hire you, but you still come over to help when you are free...... Really appreciated! ”
When Chen's mother heard this, she quickly pulled her daughter to stand up together.
"Mr. Lin, what are you talking about? If you hadn't taken care of me very much before, our family would have been very grateful to you, and I wouldn't have been able to help you when you encountered difficulties, but I just did what I could, so you must not say that. ”
Lin Shu waved his hand and interrupted Chen's mother.
"Mother Chen, I know the situation in your family, there are old and young, it is really not easy for you to support a large family as a woman, I also discussed it with Xi Zai before, and some things at home do need someone to help to do, and I don't feel at ease to find someone else, so I want to invite you back, and the salary will come as before, what do you think?"
Lin Xi said: "Mother Chen, you just agree, me and my old bean are not housework materials, but in the future, there may often be guests at home, and it is really not good to clean up without personal help, if you think the salary is low, then it will rise by three percent!" ”
Lin Shu, Lin Xi's father and son said this, Chen's mother couldn't refuse, otherwise it would be too unkind, but she didn't agree to what Lin Xi said about raising her salary, according to her, the salary that the Lin family gave her was already very high before, and if she raised it again, she wouldn't be sure.
Things were discussed, and the atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly relaxed a lot.
Taking advantage of the time between Lin Shu and Chen's mother chatting about family life, Lin Xi began to secretly observe Zhou Yimin again.
From just now to now, Zhou Comin didn't say a word, just sat there quietly, it can be seen that she is the kind of girl who is very bad at expressing herself, and maybe because of her flawless and charming appearance, people ignore her other qualities, but Lin Xi knows that some people are naturally calm and expressive in front of the camera, but they are very restrained and restrained in daily life.
This kind of person was born for the camera.
Thinking of Zhou Comin's future demeanor on the stage, Lin Xi faintly had some thoughts in his heart.
