154. Flattery, promise, pain
The single yellow pipe intersects with the timbre of the violin.
Pleasant music wanders freely in the quiet restaurant, and waiters politely shuttle between the tables, showing the rather high-end style of Western style.
Two men and two women sat by the floor-to-ceiling windows.
One of the pairs looked older.
Such a combination and location can easily be associated with a blind date meeting, or a young man and woman meeting each other's parents.
In fact, it is.
It's just that the weak young man doesn't seem to be restrained, and he also keeps a smile on his face in the face of the woman's parents, leaning back in the chair and talking.
There was no nervousness or anxiety at all.
Instead, it was the girl sitting across from him.
At this time, he drank from a water cup, lowered his head slightly and looked a little silent, but his eyes revealed a trace of gloom, especially when he felt the sudden change of enthusiasm of his parents beside him, and his chest rose and fell for a moment.
It wasn't until the conversation lasted for more than ten minutes, and as the waiter brought the steak to the table, that the passion of the two middle-aged men was barely stopped.
The registration and identification information and car keys on the desktop had been put away, but now Yuan Laiguang still remembered the reluctant gaze of the middle-aged man just now.
"I was in such a hurry to come today that I forgot to prepare a gift for my uncle and aunt, which is really a bit unpleasant."
Yuan Laiguang cut the steak slowly and methodically, his movements were elegant and not unfamiliar, and with his temperament and dress, it can be said that he is completely different from ordinary people.
Although it seems to outsiders that it is obviously to meet the parents.
But during this time, there were also many female diners around.
The parents of the imperial medicine bag Chayin are definitely good-looking, even if they are middle-aged, they can still see what they used to be, but their temperament is a little inconsistent.
At least the middle-aged woman sitting diagonally across from him was like this, with an indescribable cunning and philistine in her eyes, and the tail lines at the corners of her smiling eyes never faded.
In the face of the apology on Yuan Laiguang's face, Hachishu Meiqin still greeted him with a smile and explained politely.
"It's okay, it's okay, so what's the politeness, your uncle and I haven't prepared any gifts for you, what are these things polite!"
If it were someone else, she might not have such a good face, but after seeing Yuan Laiguang's financial resources and some things, the middle-aged woman was only afraid that she would say something wrong and lose this golden beetle son-in-law.
It's not just the financial resources, but also the looks.
Although the appearance is ranked under the financial resources and family background, it doesn't mean that she doesn't care, but the combination of the two makes her feel too perfect.
Although Yuan Yoriguang said it just now.
His parents were just farmers living in the countryside.
But if Hachishu Mikoto believes it, there will be ghosts.
Just now from Minamoto Raimitsu's introduction to work, when Hachishu Mikoto heard about Kyoto Broadcasting, she already thought of her daughter's recent statement that the work had been solved.
Even if Gen Yoriguang is reluctant to reveal.
Hachishu Mikoto has also automatically brought into the concept of a local wealthy family in Kyoto, you must know that I didn't solve it when I found the personnel department, but now it is basically certain that the young man in front of me bulldozed the resistance.
What does this mean?
Of course, the other party has a very deep background.
As for the peasants who farm the land in the countryside?
Aren't those rich and powerful people most fond of building estates in the countryside or something?
Whether it is the financial resources and power that Yuan Laiguang currently shows, or his own appearance and extraordinary temperament, Hachishu Mikoto has already associated a lot.
"I was negligent in this matter."
Yuan Laiguang had a light smile on his face, his eyes moved to the silent Imperial Medicine Bag Chayin next to him, and said, "But I have prepared a gift for Chayin." ”
That's it.
He leaned down and took out a brown box wrapped in a black ribbon with letters engraved on it, and pushed it in front of the girl.
"Vacheron Constantin!?"
Hachishu Mikoto exclaimed.
The middle-aged man next to him couldn't help but probe.
The box is branded with a logo, and the ribbon is printed with English letters, and Hachishu Mai Tamin likes to look at luxury brands the most, and the name is immediately apparent.
Bashu Meiqin suppressed the shock in her heart, and didn't care about the eyes of her daughter next to her, but her face became gentle, and she looked at Yuan Laiguang and said in a strange tone:
"You kid is too generous, and you don't spend money like this, so you have to save a little."
Her appearance is very peculiar to be honest.
If she dresses younger, or if she doesn't have a husband by her side, it will make people suspect that she is the blind date.
Mrs. Imperial Medicine Bag's attitude has changed too much, from the blunt at the beginning of the meeting to the gentle like water, only a car key and a stack of documents.
"It's just more than 10 million, after all, it's a gift for Chayin, and it's too shabby to take it out." Yuan Laiguang still said with a smile as planned.
"You kid has too much heart." Hachishu Mikoto's eyes were even more gentle, as if she could really pinch out the water.
Then she turned her head, looked at her daughter and smiled:
"It turns out that Lai Guang knows that it is your birthday recently, and it seems that the relationship between the two of you is better than we imagined, so why don't you hurry up and accept it and say thank you."
Feeling his mother's flattery and flattery, the royal medicine bag tea tone forcibly suppressed the haze in his eyes, and just took the gift box on the table and said softly: "Thank you." ”
"Let's open it and take a look." Yuan Raiguang raised his hand.
After hesitating for a moment, under the eager gaze of his mother, the imperial medicine bag tea sound closed his eyes in some pain, as if his heart was still struggling.
But it only lasted a few seconds, and she took a deep breath and opened her eyes, recovering her usual beautiful look, but the fingers she raised trembled slightly, proving that she was still not angry in her heart.
Fingertips run through the supple ribbon.
The beautiful gift box was opened.
A shiny watch is revealed.
The white mother-of-pearl dial with toffee-style hands and the bezel and lugs are set with dozens of diamonds, giving it an elegant glow in the light.
The moon and stars on the dial complement each other, and the dark gold case echoes the pink gold luster, giving it the chic beauty of a high-end women's watch.
This is a watch that Minamoto obtained from the last time he mined the Master Mine, and it is a perpetual calendar women's watch from the Vacheron Constantin Inheritance series.
"It's beautiful!"
Hachishu Mikoto covered her mouth in surprise.
It's like a celebrity in a high-end hotel.
And the husband next to her seemed to be surprised.
As for the imperial medicine bag tea sound, the haze under his eyes was a little thicker, and his teeth began to bite the soft flesh on the inner wall of his mouth, using pain to hide the fall of his inner self-esteem.
As a mother, Hachishu Mikoto didn't seem to care about her daughter's strange appearance at all, looked at the watch and nodded again and again, and couldn't help but start to get started.
Of course, she didn't wear it herself, but put it on for the imperial medicine bag Chayin, for fear that this watch would run away.
"She's so lucky that this child can find you, and her father and I can rest assured, if we have time in the future, we will come to our house in Uji City to sit."
Hachishu Mikoto looked eagerly invited.
"Next time, definitely."
Minamoto kept smiling.
This was followed by other topics.
Basically, they were talking about him and the imperial medicine bag Chayin, during which Bashu Meiqin also tentatively asked about his marriage intentions, and Yuan Laiguang only said that it would be within two years.
This made her and her husband even more excited.
It seemed that they were too satisfied, and they were afraid that they would say the wrong thing themselves, so they left immediately after eating.
After all, Uji City is not far from Kamigyo Ward, and it is all under the jurisdiction of Kyoto Prefecture, so it only takes about an hour to take the fast automatic lane.
So it's nothing to rush around.
It's not a long way out.
And the two of them were the only ones left in the restaurant.
The atmosphere has also become more subtle.
Or rather, it's a little stiff and awkward.
