Chapter 198: Talking
After Lin Yi arrived at the hotel that Kim Ji-yoon said, he paid the fare and got out of the car.
After walking into the hotel lobby, Lin Yi took out his mobile phone and dialed the number he had just called, and the ringtone rang twice before it was picked up.
But before Lin could speak, he heard the laughter of several girls on the other end of the phone: "Zhiyun, you won't come back tonight, haha."
"Lin Yixi, have you arrived? I'll come down right away." Kim Ji-yoon hurriedly said and hung up the phone.
Lin Yi looked at the phone that had been hung up and was stunned for a moment, he hadn't said a word yet.
After waiting in the hotel lobby for 4 or 5 minutes, Lin Yi saw Kim Ji-yoon come out of the elevator, and after seeing him, he beckoned and walked over here.
After approaching, Jin Zhiyun said with some embarrassment, "Lin Yixi, I took the liberty of calling you today."
"It's okay, I didn't expect to run into you so coincidentally." Lin Yi said with a smile.
"yes, that's a coincidence. Are you coming to the U.S. for work?"
"yes, there's some work to be done here."
"Are you going to be here for a long time?"
"Well, it will take a long time to come back this time, almost half a month."
"Well, I'm wondering if I'll be able to meet you when I go back."
"Let's not talk about that, there's a nice restaurant around here, let's go there."
"Okay."
Speaking of which, Lin Yi is quite familiar with this neighborhood, because it is not far from the high school he attended at the time, and there is basically no change here, at most, a few stores along the street have changed their signs.
Lin Yi walked out of the hotel with Kim Ji-yoon, and he didn't take a car, so he walked along this road.
After walking for a few minutes, the two came to the door of a restaurant, Lin Yi was also very glad that this restaurant was still open here, he was still thinking about where to go if this store was gone.
"Kim Ji-yoonxi, this restaurant has been open for a long time, and the dishes are all more traditional food in San Francisco." Lin Yi pointed to the signboard of the restaurant and introduced.
"Well, well, every time I used to come to the United States, I used to eat hamburgers and pizza, and I really didn't eat much of the traditional food."
Lin Yi opened the door of the restaurant with the help of a gentleman and made a gesture of please.
"Thank you."
After Kim Ji-yoon spoke, she walked into this restaurant, and as soon as she entered the door, she was attracted by the decoration inside, because the interior decoration of this restaurant is very western cowboy style, not like the traditional style of Western restaurants.
"The owner of this restaurant has a big farm, so a lot of the ingredients here are raised and grown, and they taste good. The style of the restaurant also has some of these considerations."
Jin Zhiyun looked at Lin Yi curiously and asked, "Lin Yixi, how do you know so much? Do you know the owner of this restaurant?"
"If the boss hadn't changed, I would have known him." Lin Yi also looked around, it was basically the same as before, except that some decorations had changed.
At this time, a white female *** person walked over, holding a menu in her hand, looked at the two of them and asked with a smile:
"Is it two dining?"
"yes, please find us a spot."
"Please follow me."
The waiter took Lim Yi and Kim Ji-yoon to a double table in a restaurant that was relatively dim, and it was obvious that the waiter thought they were a couple.
After sitting down, the service staff put down the two menus and went on to do something else.
"Lin Yixi, come on." Kim Ji-yoon looked at the menu, although her English was good, but there were some words on the menu that she couldn't understand.
"Okay, do you have any taboos?" Lin Yi asked.
"No, I can."
Lin nodded, the two sisters are somewhat similar in this regard, and Kim Jisoo doesn't pick and choose when he eats
Food.
However, Lin Yi remembered that Kim Ji-so didn't seem to eat animal offal and mangoes, and he didn't know if Kim Ji-yoon was the same. Of course, Americans rarely eat offal, and this restaurant doesn't have any of that.
"Kim Ji-yoon, how cooked do you want the steak?"
"Seven points, I don't like to eat raw food."
Lin nodded and beckoned the service staff just now, and then said:
"Two portions each of the cream clam bisque, Dungeness crab, and sirloin steak, the steak is 7 medium rare, and a portion of sourdough bread."
After the waiter wrote it down, he asked, "We have our own estate wine here, would you like to try it?"
Lin Yi looked at Kim Ji-yoon and asked, "Kim Ji-yoon, do you want to taste it?"
"Okay."
"Then you can open a bottle for us, and just decant it." Lin Yi said to the service staff.
For red wine, although Lin Yi didn't drink much, he still knew some knowledge of red wine. And he had drunk the red wine in this restaurant before, and he generally knew the price and taste.
"Okay, wait a minute."
After the waiter left, Kim Ji-yoon also spoke:
"Lin Yixi, you speak English very well, have you lived in the United States for a long time?"
"Well, it's been about 7 or 8 years."
"It's been a long time, I used to think you were Korean, but then I heard Jisoo say that you are Chinese."
When Lin Yi heard Kim Ji-yoon mention Kim Ji-so, he also asked curiously, "Did Ji-so give you my phone number?"
"Well, I asked her for it."
"Are you looking for me for something?" This is also what Lin Yi is most curious about.
Kim Ji-yoon thought for a moment before he spoke:
"Actually, I don't have anything to do with you, even I can't talk to you more on the plane because of work, so I want to invite you to dinner and explain."
"Oh, you don't have to, I know you have a lot of rules for your job." Lin Yi also knows that the profession of flight attendant cannot chat with passengers at will when he is working, especially in places like first class, which is easy to be complained about.
"It's good that you understand, and it just so happens that I have two days off here, and I want to ask you where San Francisco is more fun."
"Fun place?" Lin Yi thought about it, in fact, although he had lived in San Francisco for so many years, he really hadn't been to any places, and his range of activities was usually around the school.
"I checked on the Internet, and they all said that Fisherman's Wharf is more fun, has Lin Yixi been there?"
"Fisherman's Wharf, I really haven't been to it yet, but it should be fine, you can go check it out."
"Is Lin Yixi free? Why don't you go shopping together?" Kim Ji-yoon sent out an invitation.
"I'm sorry, I've been busy these days."
"Okay then." Kim Ji-yoon was also a little disappointed and let her go shopping alone, she still had some concerns, after all, the United States is not very safe, and a single woman, especially a beautiful single woman with an Asian face, is easily harassed or something.
Lin Yi also felt a little unkind at this time, after all, the person in front of him was also Kim Jisoo's own sister.
If Kim Jisoo knew that Lin Yi treated her own sister like this, and she didn't know how to look at herself, would she feel that she was too unrighteous.
After thinking about it, Lin Yi said again, "That's it, Kim Ji-yoon, I'll call you tomorrow afternoon and take you for a walk."
"Won't it delay your work?"
"It's okay, I'm going to be here for a while anyway." Lin Yi had no choice but to postpone the work a little longer, and it would not be half a day.
"Alright then, then I'll wait for your call tomorrow."
At this time, the waiter also brought the sobered red wine, and Lin Yi first poured a little for Jin Zhiyun and then some for himself.
"Cheers."
"Cheers."

Ji-yoon took a sip, tasted it, and exclaimed, "This red wine is quite delicious."
"Well, you can take a bottle back when you leave."
"That's fine, I'll take it back and give it to my colleagues, they love to drink."
Lin Yi smiled, it should be said that the Koreans he knows love to drink, whether they are men or women, whether they drink well or not, as long as they are adults, they will drink, and they are often drunk.
After putting down the wine glass, Kim Ji-yoon said again:
"Lin Yixi, in fact, I met you with Jisoo at the Seoul Motor Show some time ago."
"You guys went to the car show that day, too?" Lin Yi was quite surprised when he heard this, and at this time he also remembered why he felt that someone was watching him that day.
"yes, but because there were a lot of people, I didn't come to say hello to you."
"Oh, that's a coincidence."
"yes, that's a coincidence."
Kim Ji-yoon wanted to ask if the girl who was by Lin Yi's side that day was his girlfriend, but he remembered his sister's instructions, so he put this question aside for the time being.
Lin Yiyi's food also came up one by one at this time, and the two began to chat while eating.
In the process of chatting, Lin Yi also learned a lot about the situation in Kim Jisoo's family, such as the two sisters have an older brother above them, who is the same age as Lin Yi, and is also 91 years old, but he is younger than Lin Yi in terms of months, it is in May, and he is currently serving in the army, but he can retire this year.
In addition, to Lin Yi's surprise, according to Kim Ji-yoon, their father also has an entertainment agency, and he also knows YG's president Yang Hyun-suk, and he has a good relationship.
Lin Yi also knew why Kim Jisoo would go to YG, otherwise with her appearance, she would have got.
Lin Yi thought of this, and suddenly had a rather outrageous idea in his mind, if Kim Jisoo was here, she and Bae Joo-hyun would form a girl group, it should be quite attractive.
However, this idea was quickly rejected by Lin Yi, it is impossible to have two people in a group, which is not conducive to the development of the team and is easy to form internal competition.
This idea also took root in Lin Yi's mind, and he was thinking that if there were more girl groups under Starship Entertainment in the future, it would be interesting to take out the face of each girl group separately to form a limited group.
After eating, Lin Yi took the initiative to settle the bill, and asked Kim Jiyun for a bottle of red wine to take back, and after sending her back to the hotel, he took a taxi back to the company.
