Chapter 32: Cool, Warm
Since it was a working day and the time was close to nine o'clock in the evening, Yan Yu picked a restaurant that he frequented - Liang Element.
The restaurant is located in New World, the legendary business district of S City.
Created by a retired sports star, "Pretty Elements" focuses on "fresh and healthy food" and has branches in many first-tier cities in China.
The S City of the Celestial Empire, like the New York of the American Imperialists, the London of the Corrupt Country, and the Tokyo of the Neon Country, is a melting pot of cultures.
Restaurants like Pretty Elements are loved by people of all levels.
And this beautiful element located in New World, due to its special geographical location, is open until after the early hours of the morning, and is a veritable petty bourgeois "late-night canteen".
New World is one of the most atmospheric commercial landmarks in S City, and there is no parking nearby.
Yan Yu parked his car in the apartment's parking garage and walked to the restaurant in about five minutes with Lan Weiyan.
Yan Yu knows the manager of this restaurant.
After saying hello, the waiter with a professional smile on the corner of his mouth stepped forward to greet them and led them to the specially reserved view position on the third floor.
Lan Weiyan took a look at the surroundings.
The dim orange lighting, whispering diners, retro tables and chairs, and interesting potted flowers on the balcony.
Yan Yu sat down with a flat face, "I've been delayed for a long time today, so let's eat as much as you like." I'll make up for you another day. ”
Lan Weiyan watched Yan Yu take off his suit jacket and hang it on the back of the chair, and loosened his tie again, "Hehe, okay." ”
Sitting near the two sat two young girls dressed stylishly.
One is an easy-going foreign girl, stirring a coffee cup.
The other was a Chinese girl who was fluent in a foreign language, and the Polaroid in her hand was aimed at the foreign girl, and she chuckled softly, "Turn a bit... Cheeze... Perfect!”
This is the most common scene at this restaurant.
Yan Yu smiled knowingly, flipped through the menu casually, and ordered a vegan salad and a margarita cocktail.
Lan Weiyan ordered a steak, and was worried that he would not be full, so he added a seafood stew.
As for the wine, Lan Wei is referring to the fresh taste of the mojito.
Yan Yu has a clear separation between work and life.
It's off-duty time, and he only treats Lan Weiyan as a friend.
Ah no, gay honey.
Yan Yu listened to Lan Weiyan talk about his own experience, and was surprised and sighed, "So, you have been an orphan since you were a child?" ”
"Well, I got into trouble at my adoptive parents' house and went back to the orphanage when I was a teenager."
"There are very few children of that age in orphanages, right? Don't you feel lonely? ”
"Fortunately, at that time, I wanted to go to C University, and I didn't want to play, so I soaked in the stacks of books all day long."
"I can't see it, you worked so hard at that time, why can you doze off now by reading a copy of "Three Treatises on Sexuality"?"
When Yan Yu said the title of the book, he did not deliberately lower his voice.
The Chinese girl at the next table glanced at the old man, and then whispered something in the foreign girl's ear.
Immediately afterward, the two young girls next door let out a melodious laugh like silver bells.
Yan Yu was not surprised, and calmly stuffed a small piece of roasted artichokes into his mouth.
"Maybe it's because people change." Lan Weiyan thought for a moment before prudently answering Yan Yu's question.
"Young man," Yan Yu wiped his mouth, "don't talk so vicissitudes. Now that you're in the sex industry, you'll find that while everyone is changing, everything is the same – at the end of the day, it's a thrill. ”
Lan Weiyan felt that the old man's words seemed to be very philosophical.
He took a sip of a cold cocktail, "Is Brother Xiao Yan interested in doing something exciting with me?" ”
