Chapter 38 Return to China

At night, the brightly lit Wilser Avenue is particularly beautiful, and the streets are full of people. At this time, Hollywood's nightlife was just beginning.

"Ling Xiao, it's just to come out to have a meal together, do you really want to come to this kind of place?" Gan Jing sat in the car and looked at Ling Xiao with some uneasiness, she has been in the United States for three years, although she has been to many places, but it is the first time to come to this kind of high-end restaurant to eat.

"It's fine." Ling Xiao gently patted Gan Jing's right hand and said in a low voice: "Business has been good recently, we can still afford such a dinner, besides, since we did, I should also take our relationship seriously." ”

"Get out! What nonsense are you talking about! Gan Jing pinched Ling Xiao's arm vigorously, she was still a little embarrassed to mention that kind of thing, especially since it was her first time.

Gan Jing don't look hearty and generous on the outside, but she is extremely conservative on the inside, when she first came to the United States, although she had a boyfriend, but the two of them had never done anything except holding hands and kissing. If it weren't for Ling Xiao who rescued Gan Jing from the extreme suffering she was about to face when she was in the most danger, Ling Xiao would not have entered her heart so quickly.

In fact, Ling Xiao also had some intention of taking advantage of people's danger, he came to Gan Jing's side when she was most uneasy, walked into her heart, and refused to leave.

To this day, there is such a difference between the two people, but this kind of thing has never been talked about by the two, and it can even be said that the official boyfriend and girlfriend relationship has not been established between the two people. And tonight, Ling Xiao wants to solve this problem.

"Let's go!" Ling Xiao smiled at Gan Jing gently, then opened the car door and walked out, threw the key to the student in the restaurant on the side, walked to the door on the other side, opened the car door, stretched out his hand, and made a supply posture.

Gan Jing bit his lower lip gently, no longer hesitated, handed his left hand to Ling Xiao, and with a little force, he stood up from the car.

Ling Xiao drove not his own pickup truck tonight, but a brand-new Porsche, of course, this car was rented by Ling Xiao, after all, if you officially come to this kind of place for dinner, you must not drive your own pickup truck, otherwise he will be laughed to death.

Gan Jing wore a pale gold dress tonight, with her delicate face, and a string of white pearls around her neck, which looked particularly dazzling.

Mezzalo Restaurant is one of the top restaurants in Beverly Hills, and most of the people who come and go here are some middle- and upper-class celebrities, and you can often see some big and small celebrities coming and going here, so there are often some tabloid reporters outside the restaurant who are constantly filming with cameras.

As soon as Gan Jing got out of the car, he was immediately seen by several sharp-eyed reporters, and after a few exclamations, there was immediately the sound of a "pop" camera.

Immediately afterwards, other reporters also noticed the abnormality here, and subconsciously filmed, and the dazzling flash made Gan Jing subconsciously cover his eyes.

At this time, the reporters realized that this person was neither a Hollywood star nor a socialite in Los Angeles high society, and they quickly lost interest, and they had no newsworthy women, even if they were beautiful, they were not worth a few more glances.

Seeing this scene, Gan Jing glanced at Ling Xiao, and then couldn't help but burst out laughing. This extremely beautiful smile provoked several photographers to pick up their cameras and take pictures, and even a man in a suit and leather collar walked over to this side.

Ling Xiao was not interested in dealing with this kind of guy who looked like an agent, he stretched out his right arm and said to Gan Jing with a smile: "Let's go in!" ”

"Hmm!" Gan Jing nodded lightly, took Ling Xiao's arm and walked into the restaurant.

"Miss, Miss, wait a minute." The guy who looked like an agent kept shouting from behind, but he was only a few steps slower before he was stopped by the waiter at the restaurant.

"That's an interesting man!" Gan Jing couldn't help but laugh, and took Ling Xiao's arm and glanced back.

Ling Xiao reported his name to the waiter at the front desk, and when he checked the order at the front desk, he turned around and said to Gan Jing with a smile: "This kind of street agent, I only have my own interests in mind, they see a beautiful girl, they say that she has the potential to become a star, but after a little setback, they will abandon it." ”

"No, they're not as bad as you say." Gan Jing said as he followed Ling Xiao behind the waiter towards the dining seat.

"Let's put it this way." Ling Xiao watched the waiter pull out a chair for Gan Jing to sit down, and then sat down and said, "A really capable agent will not stand on the street looking for someone." The people who appear outside are some people who have little energy, and they will either hand over the customers in their hands to others in the future, or they will abandon the customers directly, do we still hear less about this kind of thing? ”

Many of Ling Xiao's clients are Hollywood stars, and they haven't heard this kind of thing again or twice.

"Hmm!" Gan Jing bit his lower lip, nodded slightly, reached out to take the menu, and looked at it, the previous incident had been left behind.

After ordering, Ling Xiao asked for another bottle of 98-year-old Bordeaux San Giuliano dry red wine, and when the appetizer came up, he said to Gan Jing: "Gan Jing, the summer vacation will start in a few days, do you want to stay in Los Angeles this year, or do you plan to go back to China?" ”

This is a question that Ling Xiao has always wanted to ask, after all, now that Gan Jing has been admitted to the School of Art and Architecture at the California Polytechnic University, he can get a doctoral diploma in two years, a little slower, and there is no big problem in three years.

"I plan to go back this year, and I don't plan to go back for the next two years and concentrate on completing my studies." I don't know why Gan Jing said, his face darkened a little.

"What's wrong?" Ling Xiao stretched out his hand and gently held her right hand, and asked with concern.

"I'm fine!" Gan Jing withdrew his hand, barely squeezing out a smile on his face, at this time, the waiter had already brought the aperitif and appetizers, so Ling Xiao didn't ask any more questions.

It is a mixed platter of sliced ham, olives, mushrooms, artichokes, etc., which is colorful and appealing, and it tastes quite good.

The first course is pasta, with slender noodles stacked with small pieces of golden potatoes, and the tantalizing aroma keeps coming to your nose, making you can't help but swallow hard and whet your appetite.

At this time, the waiter had already helped Ling Xiao pour the red wine and wake up the red wine, Ling Xiao raised his glass and touched it lightly with Gan Jing, took a small sip, and let the sweet and astringent taste linger in his mouth, Ling Xiao asked: "How long do you plan to return to China this time, if it is too long, I will close the pharmacy first, I can't take care of so many things alone." ”

"Huh!" He smiled lightly, looked at Ling Xiao and shook his head, and said, "Don't worry, I will go to stay in China for a month at most, and it won't make you feel too troublesome, and I won't leave right away, at least I will be able to leave in late June, and I will be back in August." ”

Ling Xiao knew that his careful thoughts had been seen through by Gan Jing, so he smiled wryly and raised his glass again.

The second meal is a good seven-ripe beef, plus a vegetable pairing, accompanied by delicious red wine, this dinner Ling Xiao arranged a good meal, at least Gan Jing looked very happy.

"By the way, Officer Beckett asked me to help investigate, Qin Ming has already replied, although some things have also been found, but in the end it is still a dead end, I really don't want to see Catherine's disappointed look." As he spoke, Ling Xiao couldn't help but sigh softly.
