Chapter Ninety-Six: Help
Walking into the restaurant, the owner greeted him. A hint of surprise flashed across his face when he saw Sioux City with a woman. "What's going on?" He asked, squeezing his eyes.
This gaze made Lin Qingqing a little embarrassed, because now she was asking others for help, and she was embarrassed to refute it directly, but it was impossible for her to nod and admit it in the current situation. So she could only bow her head and let Sioux City answer the question.
Fortunately, Su Cheng just glanced at Lin Qingqing, and then said lightly to the boss: "It's just a friend." Needless to say, these four words sum it all up.
"Okay." The boss shrugged and said helplessly. "Something to eat?" He then asked.
"As always." Su Cheng replied, and unconsciously dragged Lin Qingqing's arm to find a seat by the window and sat down.
Even if Lin Qingqing didn't have eyesight, he should have seen that Su Cheng and this boss had an unusual relationship. "You know?" In order to break the embarrassment, she found a topic.
Sioux City nodded noncommittally. "Friends I met in the United States later returned to China together." He said so far.
For this kind of topic, Lin Qingqing didn't ask much, she just nodded lightly. In fact, she doesn't care about these gossips at all now, but it doesn't seem appropriate to get straight to the point at this time.
Seeing Lin Qingqing's absent-mindedness, Su Cheng smiled bitterly. "Qingqing, just say how you want me to help you." In the end, it was he who provoked the topic.
Lin Qingqing glanced at Su Cheng with guilt on his face. In fact, no matter from that point of view, he has no need to help Ou Yuanlan at all, he owes neither himself nor Ou Yuanlan anything. If she hadn't been forced to be helpless, she wouldn't have asked him for help.
"Actually...... I don't know. Lin Qingqing looked out the window, a little depressed.
She didn't know how to find Ou Yuanlan and how to find him out of the Ou family. She didn't know how much people in high society would fight for their interests.
Looking at Lin Qingqing on the other side with a sad face, Su Cheng felt uncomfortable. "Qingqing, do you really care so much about Ou Yuanlan?" He referred to the issue again.
This question made Lin Qingqing fall silent again, from the moment she knew that she was moved, her feelings were already out of her control. When I saw that man injured, I would like to see where I was lying there, and when I couldn't see him for a week, I would think that I would corrode her like sulfuric acid. If she doesn't care, then she doesn't even know what it is like to care.
Facing Su Cheng, Lin Qingqing didn't want to hurt him. The acquaintance between the two was purely an accident, and as for the follow-up story, it was completely an accident. She was afraid of being sorry, she was afraid of being hurt, but now she had to do it.
"I care." Lin Qingqing finally answered, her eyes met Su Cheng's eyes, and when the two looked at each other, she could only show the greatest sincerity.
Su Cheng, who had already known it, couldn't help but tighten his heart when he saw the three words Ou Yuanlan written clearly in this woman's clear eyes. But in the end, he smiled with relief. "I'll help you." He replied lightly.
From the beginning, he had no intention of refusing Lin Qingqing's request, because he knew that he could not refuse. But when he saw that the eyes on the other side that had once made him heartfelt were now filled with the figure of another man, he still felt sad in his heart.
"Thank you." In addition to these two words, Lin Qingqing really didn't know what else he should say.
In the face of Sioux City, she had nothing to repay. Her feelings have been given to Ou Yuanlan, and it is impossible to take them back. As for the rest, she was now nothing, not even a job, let alone a decent thank you gift.
"But Qingqing, you remember, I volunteered to help you, you don't need to feel guilty." At this time, he can still see through Lin Qingqing's mind and take care of her delicate and sensitive emotions.
It would be nice if the person didn't like themselves, so they would surely become good friends. For the first time, Lin Qingqing would have such a strong desire to make friends. She had to admit that if the gentleness and elegance seen from Lin Yan was an illusion of a hypocrite, then the gentleman in Su Cheng was revealed from his bones, without a trace of pretentiousness.
As if feeling Lin Qingqing's gaze, Su Cheng suddenly showed a big smile. "Okay, okay, don't look at me like this, I can't help but feel my heart rippling!" He made vulgar jokes.
Lin Qingqing, who had always been gloomy, was amused by his words, and her shallow smile was full of gratitude that she couldn't express. All encounters in life are not groundless, and everyone's arrival must have his meaning. In the past, Lin Qingqing always resisted getting along with others, but now, she is grateful to meet these people.
When the conversation was almost over, the dishes were served. As the boss to serve the food himself, it should be for the sake of Su Cheng's face. When the boss put the delicate plate with steak in front of Lin Qingqing, he didn't forget to flatter her. "Beauty, leave a contact information, right?" He propped up the table, looking indecent.
Lin Qingqing immediately became embarrassed, and she cast an SOS glance at Su Cheng. "Go get busy with you, there's no shape all day!" Su Cheng said with a slap on the boss's shoulder.
The boss suddenly laughed, he was not annoyed, but said to Lin Qingqing in a very kind tone: "You are the first woman brought over by Su Cheng, it's a pleasure to meet you." He stretched out his hand, showing his friendliness.
Now that everyone else has taken the initiative to express their friendship, Lin Qingqing was also busy and stretched out his hand in flattery. Before the two could shake each other, they were interrupted by Su Cheng. "Alright, let's get back to your kitchen!" He was in a hurry to get rid of the talkative man.
Looking at Su Cheng, the boss shrugged helplessly, and then turned his head to say goodbye to Lin Qingqing: "Let's dine first, beauty, there is a taste of happiness in the dishes I cooked." He smiled warmly, then pushed the food cart away.
After he left, Su Cheng shook his head very firmly. "Don't mind, his name is Luo Ke, although he is not serious, but he doesn't say anything to his friends. The family's billions of family assets are too lazy to inherit, but they are only very interested in cooking. ”
Lin Qingqing nodded thoughtfully, and then echoed: "He is indeed a very interesting person." ”
Hundreds of millions of family properties and things they like, some people decisively chose the latter. Lin Qingqing looked in the direction of the kitchen, and his eyes couldn't help but have more approval.
