Chapter Seventy-Nine: But Goodbye
Cool Page Restaurant has arrived.
Jiang An parked the car, and the two got out of the car together, and then walked to the door of the restaurant.
The energetic waiter gave a graceful salute and said, "Hello, welcome to our restaurant, do you have a reservation?"
Jiang An looked into the restaurant, and it was almost full, which showed that this restaurant was doing very good business, and if there was no reservation, there might be no place or queue.
"There is an appointment, my surname is Tong, you can check it" Tong Yi smiled.
The waiter looked down at the list: "You are Miss Tong Yi?"
"Yes"
"Okay, you two, please go this way," the waiter smiled, holding out his hand to invite.
Have an appointment?
Jiang An glanced at Tong Yi, and Tong Yi walked straight inside, avoiding his gaze.
Soon, the two sat down across from each other.
"Two signature steaks, I want to be medium-rare" Tong Yi didn't look at the menu, and said directly to the waiter, and then asked Jiang An: "Teacher, what about you?"
"Just like you," Jiang An said casually.
"Then have two" Tong Yi nodded, "You still have to drive, so you won't drink red wine."
"Two signature steak sets, medium rare, please wait for two of you" The waiter confirmed before going down.
Then, Tong Yi stretched out his head and said softly: "Red wine with steak is the best, but I don't have enough money, so I don't drink red wine, don't be surprised, teacher."
After saying this, she was afraid that Jiang An would misunderstand, and added: "Because I invited the teacher to dinner, I want to use my own money, this money is my New Year's money, the bonus of the singing competition, and the remuneration for going out to work as a translator, Mr. Jiang, I'm sorry, every time I invite you to dinner, it will be discounted."
"No, I don't like to drink red wine, it's good for girls to be self-reliant" Jiang An smiled, "You usually go out to work as a translator?"
"That's right, I'm a top student in the foreign language department!" Tong Yi was proud like a princess, "I don't speak English, I can also speak French, I know a little bit of German, and I usually rely on this to make extra money."
"I see, it's very good," Jiang An nodded.
Tong Yi showed a sweet smile, supported his face with both hands, looked at Jiang An, and said, "Teacher, I usually ask you to answer when I speak, why don't you ask me a question too?"
Ask questions?
Jiang An was slightly flustered, and he didn't know what question to ask, so he thought about it and asked, "I heard your classmates call you Yan Yan, is Yan Yan a nickname?"
Hearing this, Tong Yi was a little embarrassed, and said in a low voice: "Actually, when I was a child, I was not called Tong Yi, I was called Tong Yan, so everyone called me Yan Yan, but who knows that within a few years, when I say Tong Yan, others will always subconsciously think of another word, that is, oops, teacher, you know, it's not very good, so my parents changed my name to me."
Child's face? Well, well, that's amazing.
Jiang An subconsciously raised his gaze, saving himself from looking at other girls.
"The name Tong Yi is fine, although it sounds like Aunt Tong, so my friends either call me Yan Yan or Xiao Tong, and they won't call Xiao Yi," Tong Yi explained.
This atmosphere made her like, ambiguous and heartwarming, and began to understand each other, she bit her rosy lower lip and asked, "Teacher Jiang, you still have it at home..."
Before she could speak, the dish was ready, and the waiter served two hot steaks.
"The food is coming" Tong Yi hurriedly beckoned Jiang An to do it, "Teacher, you taste it and see how it tastes"
Jiang An cut a small piece and ate it, the soft and tender beef tasted just right, but under the taste buds of the immortals, it could only be regarded as average.
"Well, it's good, it's delicious," Jiang An chuckled.
Tong Yi smiled with relief, revealing her neat and white teeth, and then she brushed back her long soft hair with both hands, and her perfect facial features radiated dazzling brilliance under the light, I have to say that this action is very feminine, sensual and charming.
"Teacher, I'm a big foodie, be careful that I eat it all first, grab your share" Tong Yi saw that Jiang An was eating too slowly, and said.
Jiang An smiled and didn't speak, and the two began to taste the food on the table.
Silence was not what Tong Yi wanted, her eyes rolled widely, and she suddenly beckoned to the waiter.
The waiter immediately approached and asked, "Ma'am, what do you command?"
"Hello, can I play the piano here?"
"Yes, if you want"
Tong Yi was very satisfied with the waiter's answer, and she asked, "Teacher Jiang, I'll play and sing a song for you, you have to listen to it and see how I sing."
As she spoke, without waiting for Jiang An to speak, she stood up and walked to the piano on the side of the corner, and the pianist who was originally sitting there playing a soothing piece stood up with a smile and let Tong Yi feel comfortable.
Tong Yi sat down very fan, her slender and white fingers were more beautiful than green onions, and she looked very suitable for playing the piano, she looked at Jiang An, and saw that he was looking at herself, so she began to play.
Under the flying fingertips, a beautiful lyrical piano sound slowly flowed out, like a warm spring breeze, making the people in the restaurant turn their heads one after another, and their eyes focused on her beautiful face.
"I snuggled up to myself, looking at the people who traveled far away
The evening is dawning, and the sorrow is entwined in my heart
The song sounded, and I looked back against the wind
Your figure is reflected in your eyes
I often dream of Penglai
...
As soon as Tong Yi opened his mouth, a melodious and infectious song sounded, like a painting, which made people see the sad back of the girl waiting for her sweetheart, but also heard the hidden joy.
Jiang An's expression moved, Tong Yi's appearance of playing and singing by himself was frozen there, he heard the true intention of this song, it was clearly a hidden poem, I-Xi-Huan-You, such beautiful love words, but... Jiang An gritted his teeth and suddenly made up his mind.
After a song, Tong Yi stood up, and she was greeted by warm applause and admiration, for her playing, for her singing, and for her beauty.
This made her face flush, and after bowing, she hurried back to Jiang An's side.
"Teacher, how am I singing, praise me, good friends should encourage each other shamelessly," Tong Yi said happily.
Looking at her soft and watery eyes, Jiang An felt a little guilty, but still smiled: "Great! As a girl, you are really good, you look very beautiful playing the piano, I plan to let my daughter learn piano too, but I don't know if she is willing."
The first half of the sentence was like a warm sunshine, which made Tong Yi's heart bloom, but the next sentence was a thunderbolt, her smile suddenly froze, and her head went blank.
Jiang, Mr. Jiang said, what did he, his daughter?
Jiang An made himself more ruthless, he took out his mobile phone, clicked on the screen, and handed it to Tong Yi's eyes, with a gentle face: "By the way, this is my daughter, and my wife, you see, our family of three is very compatible!"
This is a photo, a man and a woman are holding a little girl like a porcelain doll, the man is Jiang An, the woman's beauty is more than Tao Li, the family of three is full of smiles, and the taste of happiness seems to overflow.
A second is as long as a century.
Tong Yi's body couldn't stop trembling slightly, she suddenly reached out and wanted to pick up the water cup to drink, but the water cup was knocked down by her, and the water flowed to the corner of her clothes, she hurriedly wiped a few times, lowered her head and picked up the knife and fork to cut the steak, and said: "Sure enough, I am very happy, eat, eat, eat!"
Jiang An clearly heard the forbearance of choking.
She cut the steak very neatly, and then sent it directly into her mouth, the movement was very fast, because she didn't have time to swallow, her mouth was quickly stuffed, and the scattered long hair completely covered her face, and she couldn't see her expression, only the sound of her chewing hard.
Tick tock.
Through the gap, he saw drops of water fall on the steak, soak the plate, and then put it in his mouth again.
She burst into tears, but she didn't want him to see it, it was so heartbreaking.
Jiang An suddenly felt distressed, the green tendons in his right hand burst out, and the armrest of the chair was grabbed by him with his handprints, he wanted to reach out and caress her hair, telling this girl not to be sad, but when the interruption continues, he will suffer from it, he already has Song Wanshuang who is worthy of a lifetime of companionship and a daughter gifted by God, and he doesn't want to provoke this good girl again, amorous has always been an excuse for flowers.
Sorry you're late for my life, that's all.
Tong Yi also understood.
She has seen Jiang An so many times, he is always alone, and when he goes to Jiang An, he is also lonely, and subconsciously thinks that Jiang An is single.
And then, it all seemed too late...
You are still in the future, how dare I grow old, but when I waited for you, what I saw was the happiness of you and others, I was so stupid, I should bless you with a smile, but my heart hurts, it really hurts!
Tong Yi collapsed, couldn't hold back any longer, covered her face and fell on the table and cried bitterly, the sauce and tears mixed together, staining her long hair and body, but she didn't care, just cried.
The people in the vicinity looked over and whispered.
Jiang An sighed lightly, cry, just cry, you are still so young, you will soon forget about me, and I will disappear from your life.
He silently called the waiter closer, took out a card to settle the bill, then stood up, took off his coat, covered Tong Yi's body, wrapped her, and then in the surprised eyes of everyone, he directly picked her up and walked outside the restaurant.
Tong Yi shrunk into a ball and let him do it, Jiang An stuffed her into the co-pilot, she just buried her head under her coat, like a wounded little white rabbit, just kept crying.
The car sped all the way and soon drove to the downstairs of Tong Yi's house.
In the quiet car, only Tong Yi's suppressed cry could be heard, Jiang An looked ahead and said softly: "You are home"
Tong Yi's current state, it's better to send her home.
After a few seconds, as soon as Jiang An lowered his head, a pale and warm little hand reached over and was on the back of his hand, grabbing him hard.
Is this the last retention?
Jiang An closed his eyes and exhaled, then opened them again, his eyes were full of determination: "Go home, take care of yourself alone"
Tong Yi under his coat couldn't help but tremble lightly because of his ruthlessness.
She silently opened the car door and left slowly, untidy and messy hair, leaving Jiang An with a lonely and thin back, staggering step by step, gradually walking away, every step seemed to fall a fragment of the heart, and she lost her soul.
Long time no see, but goodbye.
