Chapter 192 – Arriving in London (3)

Even their restaurant was booked ahead of time. As much as English food was not exciting to anyone, they still picked a restaurant that was full of local colors.

The server showed them to their seat, and when everyone was flipping through their menus, someone walked over quickly and said in a pleasant voice, “Miss Heloise!”

Everybody looked up and saw a tall English man walking over to them briskly. He had on a suit and a name tag on the front of his chest. The other servers bowed at him as he walked past.

Zhong Yuhuan stood up slowly and hugged him.

The man turned to a server and had him bring over a bottle of red wine.

The man looked around at the cameramen and asked, “Filming?”

Zhong Yuhuan nodded. “Yes, we have informed you previously.”

“Ah. That Chinese reality TV show filming crew? I didn’t think you’d be a part of it.”

With the exception of Li Jinyuan and Huo Chengming, everybody else looked at Zhong Yuhuan talking to the English man, dumbfounded. Her English was very fluent. The rest of them could only catch a few words in the conversation.

The man left after a little while.

After that, they received a few more dishes than they had ordered. The server said in broken Chinese. “New dishes. New chef. Michelin.” Then, in English, “For Miss Heloise.”

That wasn’t what Huo Chengming cared about. “Who was that?” he asked.

“Langdon’s brother. We met a few times before.”

Huo Chengming and Li Jinyuan searched their memories for this “Langdon” person and their faces turned into different shades of greyish black.

Langdon. Wasn’t he that English boy who professed his love for Huanhuan?

Huanhuan had even met his brother?

“Are you still keeping in touch with Langdon?” Huo Chengming blurted out.

Zhong Yuhuan nodded and said, “Of course.”

Huo Chengming shut his mouth tightly.

Li Jinyuan’s look was a bit peculiar as well, but he hid his emotions well. He smiled and said, “Let’s have dinner first. Then we can head back and get some rest.”

Everybody was baffled at what was going on.

Ge Mei somewhat sensed that Zhong Yuhuan seemed not to be as simple as she had thought…

What they didn’t know was that that was just the beginning of it all.

Zhong Yuhuan had lived there for a few years and knew many people. She has very strong networking skills. She might not be very close to the others, but they all have a good impression of her and are willing to be her friend. They’d all go up and greet her when they run into each other.

Zhong Yuhuan didn’t eat too much.

She had very little English food when she was living there. Her interest for them didn’t grow much over the years. Li Jinyuan watched it all quietly.

When everybody was done eating, Zhong Yuhuan went to pay.

“We got a discount,” said Zhong Yuhuan with a smile.

Yin Qiqi couldn’t help but say, “We really get discounts everywhere we go.”

Zhong Yuhuan shrugged.

Getting back to the hotel, the girls didn’t rush to remove their makeup.

Li Jinyuan took a trip downstairs. After he returned, he turned on the electric stove inside the little kitchen and put on a skillet.

Gu Yuling, curious, asked, “What are you doing?”

Li Jinyuan rolled up his sleeves and said, “Zhong Yuhuan didn’t eat too much. I am making her some snacks.”

There was a lot of information in that sentence. Gu Yuling’s eyes widened. Finally, she lamented, “You know how to cook?”

“Yes, I had made an effort to learn it in the past.”

Having said that, Li Jinyuan turned around and took a quick glance at Zhong Yuhuan, who was sitting on the couch, leaning to one side.

By now, Huo Chengming had taken off his jacket and rolled up his sleeves as well. The mature man’s feel was gone, and now he only seemed fierce and somewhat inexperienced.

“Give me the knife. I’ll do the cutting.” He said.

Li Jinyuan handed it over to him.

Stumped, Gu Yuling thought to herself how come the two of them seemed so familiar with working with each other?

As though the two of them had worked together many times like this in the past to cook for someone.

They went doing what they were doing for about half an hour and the aroma of food came from the kitchen.

Zhong Yuhuan looked up without thinking. “What are you two doing?”

Huo Chengming came over, an apron in hand.

When he reached Zhong Yuhuan, he bent over a little and put the apron on Zhong Yuhuan.

When he put the apron on her, his hands were around Zhong Yuhuan’s waist. He looked like he was her in his arms.

“Have some snacks. Don’t get your clothes dirty.”

Even Gu Yuling was envious.

How could he be that thoughtful?

What kind of a show was this?
