Chapter 147 Water People
Wang Nan walked out of the door of the hotel and walked towards the lake. The floating restaurant is not far from the hotel, a 10-minute walk away.
Along the way, Wang Nan saw many tourists also going there, and it was rare to have such an idle morning, so she enjoyed the late autumn scenery by the lake while strolling.
In a short time, you will arrive at the floating restaurant, which is built on this Taihu Lake as the name suggests.
Shaded by greenery, the flat bridge twists and turns, and a brown-red wooden staircase protruding from the intersection becomes a bridge at both ends of the waterway. There are several triangular roofs of various sizes forming the shape of a boat, and on the lintel of the front is a string of English letters, on which are hung many colored light bulbs. There are four Chinese characters below: Water People!
In the daytime, the restaurant doesn't see anything out of the ordinary, and the overall feeling is deep and transparent, because the entire exterior is made of mahogany columns and large floor-to-ceiling glass windows. The smooth black door frame line is the best color to separate the mahogany from the glass windows.
Wang Nan stood on more than a dozen mahogany stairs and looked up, and there was only one floor of the restaurant on the water. Houses built on water are generally not high, unlike those on land with solid foundations, which rely on the strong support of strong underwater stakes. Therefore, most of the common floating restaurants are only on the first floor.
Although it was early in the morning, this restaurant was full of people, perhaps because it was the only floating restaurant near Muwan Villa! Wang Nan guessed right, this is the only floating restaurant of this scale.
The opening of a floating restaurant here must have some background and connections, otherwise it is difficult to get many documents. The owner of the floating restaurant is a woman, she and Chen Yongrui are brothers and sisters, and they have a relationship with the Tang family, so they gave the Tang family one-third of the shares. In this way, Tang Lin can be regarded as the boss here.
Tang Lin is the first time to eat here, according to Chen Yongrui, the chefs here are first-class, especially the skills of Sichuan cuisine, and once won the third place in the country.
Shangguan Qing followed Tang Lin so awkwardly to the water house. She looked up at the people on the water bathed in the morning light, and then lowered her gaze and listened to Tang Lin quietly.
Tang Lin talked eloquently, glanced at Guan Qing from the corner of his eye, and the two stepped on the stairs at the same time.
Shangguan Qing listened to his low and pleasant voice in her ears, but her head was looking left and right, she was looking at Wang Nan's figure. Until I finished going up the mahogany staircase of more than ten steps and arrived at the open glass door of the restaurant, I didn't find Wang Nan in the crowd coming and going from all sides.
Shangguan Qing wondered in her heart, thinking that Wang Nan had probably already entered. She and Tang Lin had been delayed a lot just now.
Tang Lin saw her absentmindedly stopping in front of the door, so he also stopped the topic, stood beside her and faced her, half of the corners of his mouth were slanted, the corners of his eyes were slightly upturned, revealing a disdainful smile: "What?" Don't dare to go in? Afraid I'll eat you? ”
"Huh?" Shangguan Qing, who was thinking about her thoughts, raised her head suddenly, with an ignorant expression: "What did you say?" I'm looking for Wang Nanna. ”
"Oh! Hehe, she's definitely in, let's go, I'm going to starve to death. Tang Lin's frivolous aura came out again.
Shangguan Qing didn't know how he had changed several faces in one morning, as if he had gone out wearing a different mask. Serious? Ruthless? Gentle? Gentle.....
Shangguan Qing shook her head vigorously, she didn't want to guess what kind of person Tang Nan was. Maybe this time when she left the base of Muwan Villa, she and Tang Lin were like two parallel lines that did not intersect, and they would never meet again. Tang Lin's quality has nothing to do with her. Once he figured it out, he was no longer entangled, annoyed that he had almost strangled himself to death on the lawn just now.
Entering the hall, the door grew, bent down politely and humbly, with a servile smile on his face: "Young Master Tang, please quickly, a girl is waiting for you......"
Menying was a man of twenty-five or sixteen, not tall, mediocre-looking, with a pair of squinting eyes and interesting tightness, half-open and half-squinted, leading them to the predetermined position.
Chen Yongrui had already booked a seat in the morning, and it was he who suggested that Tang Lin come here, saying that the morning was a Huaiyang-style breakfast. Chen Yongrui knew that Tang Lin's mother was from northern Jiangsu, and Tang Lin occasionally said that the boiled dried shreds of Huaiyang cuisine were delicious, so he suggested that he go to the water house to taste the authentic boiled dried shreds, saying that he was invited to be a first-class chef. Tang Lin knew that his one-third boss still had to praise his own field, although he didn't know the tastes of Shangguan Qing and Wang Nan, he still brought them.
Shangguan Qing couldn't get used to seeing Tang Lin commanding the door, and seeing the appearance of the slave at the door. I can't help but sarcastically say: "How do you look like the king of the mountain and the eunuch, now it's a new society, and it's not the Qing Dynasty..."
Men Ying kept his head down and swept Tang Lin with the corners of his eyes, looking at the tone of their words, there were countless guesses in his heart.
Before Shangguan Qing finished speaking, Tang Lin immediately tilted his head and grabbed the white: "You should say that the emperor and the eunuch, how can there be a mountain king?" If he is a eunuch, I am the king of the mountain, then you are the lady of the village or," when he said the king of the mountain, he had already walked to the fixed table seat, stretched out his long arm to clamp Shangguan Qing's neck, and the two brothers whispered: "Little wife,"
"Get out!" Shangguan Qing's face was full of crimson when he was teased, and he rolled his eyes and glared at him fiercely: "It's really a dog's mouth that can't spit out ivory!" With a push of both hands, he jumped into the opposite position of Wang Nan.
Wang Nan greeted eagerly: "Xiaoqing! Why did you come here, make me wait! ”
"Nan Nan, you came so fast!" Shangguan Qing smiled at her embarrassedly, and when she squinted her eyes and saw Tang Lin sitting next to her, she turned her head and whispered viciously: "If you are so close to me, if you provoke me, you will bite you to death, hum!" After finishing speaking, he didn't look at Tang Lin, turned the cup upside down on the plate on the table, and said to the girl who came over to serve them: "Please bring us a pot of tea first, is it okay?" ”
The waitress smiled: "Okay, then you can order first." Hold on! She placed the ordering board in the middle of the square table, where all three of them could reach, and turned to get the kettle.
Shangguan Qing was annoyed, Tang Lin almost sent her to the West Heaven, and she couldn't tell whether Tang Lin intended it or not. I think since he has an agreement with himself, he shouldn't come nonsense.
When a person hesitates about something and feels that it is very reasonable to explain, he will leave a back hand, and will not turn his face immediately, but wait for the opportunity. Shangguan Qing was in this case, she couldn't figure out Tang Lin's intentions, she didn't know who he was, and she couldn't be sure of Tang Lin's attitude towards her, so she could only wait and see.
To vent your anger on this breakfast, that is to knock Tang Lin hard. When Tang Lin reached out to get the cutting board, she quickly pulled it over, rested it in front of her and Wang Nan, and said without raising her eyelids: "Nan Nan, do you have anything you like?" Order more and take it home to eat slowly, I like expensive ....."
"Expensive doesn't always taste good!" Tang Lin raised his eyebrows and pursed his lips, shrugging again.
The corners of Wang Nan's mouth hooked an arc in response: "Okay." "Lowering my eyes and ordering, my finger on the ordering board, watching the price go all the way.
Shangguan Qing tilted her head and smiled at the corner of her lips: "Good things are expensive, we like good things, so Mr. Tang is going to break the bill today!" ”
Tang Lin also turned her face, facing the two cold stars in her mist-like eyes, the autumn water and the sunlight refracted from the lake outside the glass were intertwined, even more crystal bright.
Tang Lin was stunned for a moment, and sighed secretly: Such beautiful eyes, it's a pity that the famous flower has a master! Ni Jie's luck has always been very good, and this time is no exception.
Shangguan Qing and Wang Nan only cared about picking up expensive points, but it was just breakfast, and no matter how much they ordered, they couldn't scare Tang Lin to death. Wang Nan winked at Shangguan Qing and compared it with his mouth: "There are also noon and night." ”
Tang Lin looked like he was patrolling around with a light breeze, his eyes were circulating, and he looked chic. When he saw a young man and a woman stop and stare at their table, he released the electricity with a smile on his eyebrows, only to make the young girls blush, and fled shyly. And two young men, fearing that the world would not be chaotic, actually went to the table and accosted them.
Tang Lin bumped his shoulder against Guan Qing's arm and sneered in a low voice: "Hey, hey, there's a handsome guy who has taken a fancy to you!" ”
Shangguan Qing pursed her lips with a cold face, turned her head to look out the window, and ignored Tang Lin and the two boys he recruited. She saw them at a glance, and the work card hanging down to her chest was the entry and exit pass for all the people involved in this competition, indicating that it was other participants, and she didn't want to cause any more trouble.
Wang Nan was facing away, so he didn't see it, and half-jokingly used the treated manicure, pointed at Tang Lin and said, "Mr. Tang, Mr. Tang!" Don't keep staring at Xiaoqing, look at me! ”
Tang Lin hooked his lips, smiled lightly and responded casually: "I'm watching, I'm using the afterglow." ”
Wang Nan cut off and ignored him, and handed the ordering board to the waitress. The waitress put the teapot, took the ordering board, looked at it with lowered eyes, and said, "Wait a minute." And he turned and departed again.
Wang Nan took a sip of the tea that Shangguan Qing poured for her, and stared at the three men in front of her silently.
The two male models who walked to the edge of the table, the pleasing one copied one hand, and the other hand brushed the hair that grew out of his forehead, revealing a dimple, and his eyes were on Shangguan Qing beside Tang Lin, but he said to Tang Lin: "Cousin, this morning is so leisurely!" Don't dislike my brother and bring someone to have breakfast with you! ”
Tang Lin's eyes flashed, and he pursed his lips politely and detachedly: "Sit down, if I don't welcome you, it will also seem that my Tang Lin is too unkind, right!" ”
Seeing that he agreed, the pleasing-looking young man said to the young man behind him who was watching coldly: "Ash, you sit over there!" He pointed to the vacant seat next to Wang Nan.
It's a four-person booth, and it's a bit difficult to seat five people, because it's all a small sofa chair, unless you sit in the aisle on either side.
Tang Lin looked at this distant cousin, went to the next place to find a wooden round stool, and sat in the aisle, at the horizontal head of Wang Nan and Shangguan Qing, he shook his head helplessly: "Tang Weichen, why are you so bored?" ”
Tang Weichen bent the corners of his mouth, moved his position to the table, and said with his face to Tang Lin behind Shangguan Qing: "That's right, it's just boring, so find someone to play!" He leaned his face closer to Shangguan Qing and continued: "We are really fated, this is what happened!" Little beauty, do you say yes or no? ”
