Volume 3: The Road of the Strong Chapter 62: Christmas Gathering
Leaving the Genetic Research Center, Yang Fan walked towards the operation command center, although he made up his mind, his heart was still a little heavy. He wanted to talk to Kevin and Sokolov, and he got into the habit of asking them about a lot of things.
But when he really arrived at room 502, Yang Fan didn't knock on Sokolov's door. Because he could guess that Sokolov and Kevin would have persuaded him to give up the experiment as Rogers did, he was afraid that he would be convinced.
Yang Fan went directly back to his dormitory to rest, and the next morning, he went to the racing track alone.
Rogers' words really made Yang Fan hesitate, everything he has now is what many people dream of, and accepting it may mean losing it all. But the tragedy that happened in Thailand three years ago is still vivid, and Yang Fan has never forgotten it for a moment. For his own mistakes, he never regretted it. It's just that at this moment, he has a little more worries.
After a few laps on the track alone, Yang Fan calmed down all of a sudden, he likes to empty himself before making a big decision, so that the voice in his heart will tell him what he wants. At the moment when Yang Fan took off his helmet, he still insisted on participating in Dr. S's experiment.
Back at the base, Yang Fan's mood also relaxed, and he felt that he could go to Kevin and talk to them now. As soon as he walked to the parking lot, Yang Fan was shocked by the scene in front of him.
In the open space in front of the car park are 10 blue BMW M5s and a bright red Ferrari 458 spider parked side by side. In front of this row of cars, Evan, Parker, Zhao Erhu, Jason, Bruce, Younas, Daniel, Han Long, Kevin, and Sokolov stood side by side, each standing in front of an M5.
Irina sits on the hood of a Ferrari, and Anna sits in the passenger seat.
This scene is also not common in T3, and it has attracted a lot of attention. Some of the staff members couldn't help but take a few more glances when they passed by, and some people were talking about something in their ears.
Evan was the first to see Yang Fan coming, took a few steps forward, hugged Yang Fan's shoulder, and said, "Let's go, hurry up, I'm just going to leave you!" I said that the all-hands party before Christmas Eve, today I will be your driver. ”
Yang Fan then remembered that Evan said yesterday morning that many people have to go home to accompany their families on Christmas Eve and Christmas this year, and today they will go to Huaxia Taste together while everyone is there.
Seeing this scene and seeing all his brothers in front of him, all the unhappiness in Yang Fan's heart had long since disappeared. He smiled at everyone, beckoned, and walked straight to the M5 behind Evan, and the others got into the car.
Irina Ferrari drove at the front, followed by 10 blue M5s, and Evan and Yang Fan's cars at the back of the line, and the long convoy went straight to "Taste of China". Along the way, the team attracted a lot of attention, although the M5 is not a luxury car, but it is rare to see 10 cars of the same style and color lined up.
Evan told Yang Fan about Daniel on the way. After they left, the meeting of God Bless America was over, and Mantis and the others did not continue to embarrass Daniel, nor did they dare to really accept Yang Fan's $1 million commission. Although they didn't think about being promoted to SS-level squad, Rogers was the head of the entire T3 mercenary business, and they didn't dare to offend.
The matter passed like this, and Daniel himself did not want to mention it again, but only expressed his gratitude to his brothers. Yang Fan also knows Daniel's character, he has a strong self-esteem, and he is not willing to cause trouble for his brothers. Yesterday morning's incident, I did something inappropriate, now that the matter is over, then it is best for everyone not to mention it, I just hope that through this incident, the praying mantis and others will be a little more restrained.
"Taste of China" is located near Fort Monroe National Park, close to the sea, the environment is very good, it is the most high-end, but also the most authentic Chinese restaurant in the vicinity. Everyone parked their cars side by side in the parking lot, got out of the car and went straight to the restaurant.
Evan walked at the front, pushed open the restaurant's double doors with Chinese characteristics, and stepped over the threshold into the hall.
A waiter in a Tang costume in the hall hurriedly greeted him and said, "Mr. Evan, you are here!" Our boss has explained that the box on the second floor you have booked has been arranged. Our boss will go up and greet him personally when he is done. ”
"Oh, thank you then." Evan said.
Evan was a regular visitor here, except for Anna and Irina, everyone else had come more than once, and everyone walked straight through the crowd on the first floor towards the stairs without the guidance of the waiter.
The layout of the Chinese taste is no different from the ordinary Chinese restaurant, as soon as you enter the door is the dining area, the decoration is mainly light yellow, although it is not magnificent, but it also belongs to the level of middle and high-end. In the middle of the hall is a round table that can accommodate 10-15 people, and on both sides are square tables for 4-6 people.
It's meal time, and there are almost no empty seats in the lobby on the first floor.
Evan took everyone to the innermost private room on the second floor, all the private rooms of Huaxia Taste are named after the word "Yuan", and the door of the private room booked by Evan is written in italics. In the private room is a large round table, which can seat 30 people.
Everyone didn't know much about the etiquette of the Chinese table, and Yang Fan had told you a few times before when he came here to eat, but they only remembered the position of the main seat, in fact, they didn't care much about it.
Everyone was more conscious, and the three positions facing the door were reserved for Yang Fan and the two ladies, Yang Fan sat in the middle, Anna sat on Yang Fan's right, and Irina sat on Yang Fan's left. The rest of the people sat casually, except for the fixed combination of Evan and Parker, Zhao Erhu and Han Long, everyone found a seat closer to them and sat down.
As soon as Evan sat down, he said excitedly, "Oops, this is the first time I've eaten with the two beauties of T3. After so many years, I was finally able to date two beauties, it's not easy, today is a memorable day! ”
Parker said next to him, "That's a must, there are so many appointments that you can't remember!" ”
Evan immediately put away his smile, turned his head to look at Parker stupidly, and said very seriously: "Hey, I said Parker, you are a person who does intelligence work, can you have a sense of secrecy?" Don't keep telling other people's secrets! ”
Irina smiled disdainfully and said, "Evan, you're still a secret!" Is there anyone else in the whole T3 who doesn't know? ”
The crowd burst into laughter.
Evan felt a little embarrassed, and then turned his head to Yang Fan and said, "Yang Fan, you have too many rules for ordering food in Huaxia. I've already told the boss and asked him to arrange whatever he wants, but what do you like to eat that, what is it, what's it, 'vinegar and whiskers', and I've added it to you! ”
Irina turned her head and asked, "Yang Fan, what kind of dish is this?" Why is the name so strange? ”
Yang Fan lowered his head and thought about it, first smiled slightly, then showed a look of loss, and said lightly: "Oh, this is my favorite dish." When I was a kid, I was a picky eater and didn't like to eat vegetables, and my mother only ate meat and eggs in her dishes, which she didn't think was healthy. One day my mother made me this dish, which was mainly meat, eggs and fungus, which happened to be my favorite food, so I didn't have any leftovers. Later, every time I came home, my mother would make me this dish. Slowly, I started to like it. ”
"Oh, that's right." Hearing Yang Fan talk about her mother, Irina felt that her question was a little inappropriate, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.
Bruce suddenly said, "Yang Fan, thank you for the car." It's exciting to drive, but it's too boring for me! Every day, I flew around in various types of planes, and I was bored to death.
I heard that you are starting a joint mission, is there any chance to take me? If this continues, I'll forget how to shoot! Isn't it a shame that such a good assault fighter as I am wasted so much! This is also a loss for T3! ”
Younas smiled and said, "Who can blame this?" Who made you hot-headed at the time, and have you ever seen the boss of a medical institution fly all over the world all day long? ”
Bruce sighed heavily, looked like he was loveless, and said, "Hey, it was so sloppy! At that time, I thought that I could still be Isabel's full-time pilot every day. Who would have thought that every day was the transportation of some injured men! Listening to their moans of pain, the feeling ... Oh, what a pain! ”
He suddenly looked at Evan and begged in a pleading tone: "Evan, help me think of a way, I ask for a transfer!" ”
Irina picked up the glass of water and took a sip of it, chuckling and chuckling, "Bruce, with your patience, how can you catch up with our sister Isabel!" ”
Evan looked at Bruce's serious face, not like he was joking, and said, "Okay, okay, I'll help you figure it out." You also said just now, Yang Fan and they are on a joint mission, you can participate in a few missions first, and I will help you arrange it later! ”
Bruce looked at Yang Fan again, as if he had seen a savior, and continued to beg: "Boss, I will rely on you for the rest of my life!" I don't want to be a plane flight all the time, and I don't have a young and beautiful flight attendant! ”
Yang Fan really wanted to laugh when he saw that Bruce was worse than dead, but he felt that Bruce was rarely serious, so he still controlled himself, and pretended to be serious, and said, "No problem!" I'll try to take you with me on my next mission! However, whether you can transfer positions or not depends on Evan! ”
Bruce nodded hurriedly, hugged his fists at Yang Fan and Evan respectively, and said, "Then please take care of the two bosses!" Hurry up and bring me back with me! ”
At this moment, the door of the private room was opened, and two middle-aged Chinese people, a man and a woman, walked in. Evan and the others basically know them, they are Wan Linxi, the boss of Huaxia Taste, and Zhang Xiaofang, the proprietress of Huaxia.
They were all Southerners and came to California early to open this restaurant. Evan is a regular visitor here, so whenever Evan comes, they will come up and say hello. Yang Fan and the others have also been here several times, and they all call these two Boss Wan and Boss Lady.
Boss Wan looked at everyone and said with a smile on his face: "Everyone, I'm too busy today, I can't take care of it, I don't take care of it, please bear with me." ”
Zhang Xiaofang saw Anna and Irina, with an irrepressible look of envy on her face, and said, "Oh, there are two more beauties today!" I've been running this shop for almost 20 years, and I've never had such a beautiful girl in the store! ”
Anna and Irina nodded and smiled at the hostess, and the two did not talk.
Evan stood up and said, "Boss Wan, everyone is a friend, so you don't have to be so polite!" You're busy with yours, and we can take care of ourselves. Also, you have to help us order that dish. Huaxia cuisine is good at everything, but the serving is too slow. ”
"Okay, don't worry, we have told the kitchen in advance, and the dishes will come soon, so we won't disturb your meal." After speaking, Boss Wan and the two left the private room.
Boss Wan was right, not long after he went out, a table of dishes was immediately served.
There were no constraints on everyone being together, and everyone was eating while introducing their latest tasks and arrangements for the Christmas period. Kevin, Sokolov, and Jason are going home to their own devices, Younas is also planning to go back to Germany, and the others haven't figured out exactly where they're going, but they all have to relax.
Han Long put down the dishes and chopsticks, looked at Yang Fan, and asked, "Yang Fan, why don't we go to Chinatown?" By the way, I also looked at the situation on Ye Ting's side, and I don't know how she is doing now, the deputy gang leader. ”
"yes, let's go to Chinatown together, we don't have Christmas anyway." Zhao Erhu also said beside him.
Jason suddenly said, "Otherwise." If you are sure you don't want to go home, you can go to my house, Portland is also very beautiful. Moreover, my parents have always said that they want to meet you! ”
Kevin interrupted them with a wave of his hand, saying, "You can each think of where you want to go." You don't have to worry about Yang Fan's whereabouts, he has an arrangement! ”
