"Thank you, Mr. Jiang."
"Let's go. It's rare to come out. We'll go somewhere else." Jiang Xiaoyun glanced at the watch on his wrist. It was still early.
However, at this moment, Lan Qiqi's stomach growled in frustration.
Lan Qiqi touched his empty stomach and replied, "I'd better not go shopping..."
"You didn't have lunch?" Looking at Lan Qiqi's movements, Jiang Xiaoyun frowned.
Lan Qiqi nodded. "I thought you were coming to pick me up for dinner just now, so I didn't have lunch on the set."
"Then let's go eat. There's a restaurant on the top floor."
"To express my gratitude for the phone, I'll treat you to this meal." After a while, Lan Qiqi said, "But I can't afford to buy the top floor meal here. Can I eat out?"
It was rare for Lan Qiqi to treat him to a meal, and Jiang Xiaoyun nodded briskly.
"Then follow me. I know a private restaurant where the food is delicious." Lan Qiqi said happily.
"Oh? Is it really that delicious?" Jiang xiaoyun shook his head in disbelief. He had tasted all the delicacies.
"You'll know when you get there."
"I can't wait to hear you say that."
"The landlady there is not only warm, but also delicious. Duo La and I often go there."
"Really?"
"Yes, the boss is so good that he has nothing to say."
"Why do I think you're advertising their store for free?"
"I was telling the truth."
"...
They chatted along the way and soon arrived at the private restaurant that Lan Qiqi had mentioned.
As soon as the proprietress saw Lan Qiqi, she welcomed her warmly. "Qiqi, where's your boyfriend for dinner today?"
Boyfriend?!
These three words crossed Lan Qiqi and Jiang Xiaoyun's ears, and they were both stunned...
"Madame misunderstood. He's not my boyfriend..." Lan Qiqi explained in a hurry, afraid that Jiang Xiaoyun would get angry.
Lan Qiqi was a little anxious to explain. Jiang Xiaoyun listened, and his good mood immediately dropped to freezing point.
"Ah? Not a boyfriend, then you are..."
"Friends, ordinary friends."
Jiang Xiaoyun's face was very ugly. Lan Qiqi thought Jiang Xiaoyun didn't want to reveal their relationship, so he interrupted the proprietress.
Lan Qiqi thought that her contract with Jiang Xiaoyun lasted only a year, and after a year, they would have nothing to do with each other. After thinking about it, it was best to answer a friend.
"I'm sorry. The first time I saw you, I brought a friend of the opposite sex to dinner. She thought this gentleman was your boyfriend." The proprietress chatted.
"No, we're just friends. He's my boss." Lan Qiqi was afraid that Jiang Xiaoyun would be embarrassed, so he couldn't help explaining it again.
However, Lan Qiqi did not know that the more she explained, the more upset Jiang Xiaoyun became.
"I'll order."
Jiang Xiaoyun dropped the words coldly and walked into a private room first.
"Qiqi, did I say something wrong?" Jiang Xiaoyun's face was cold, and the landlady trembled. It was the first time she had ever seen such a handsome, yet cold man, with all his dignity and grace.
"It's all right, he's got that temper." Lan Qiqi explained to the proprietress.
"I thought I was talking too much and made him angry. You guys sit down and I'll come up and order for you later." The proprietress answered and turned to the kitchen to help.
"Yes, thank you, madame." Lan Qiqi turned and went upstairs to the private room.
"Mr. Jiang, this is the menu. The dishes in front are all signature dishes here. Everything is good." Lan Qiqi handed the menu to Jiang Xiaoyun and introduced him to the signature dishes.
However, Jiang Xiaoyun's face was very pale. Holding the menu, he felt that this was not pleasing to his eyes, and that was not pleasing to his eyes. "Kung pao chicken, mapo tofu, garlic and taro paste, shredded yam, mixed jellyfish, asparagus, pickled asparagus, sugar braised lotus seed, braised crucian carp, cold mixed kelp, braised meat with plum, seaweed and egg soup... And, with a braised fish head, I want all of these."
"Cough cough cough..." Lan Qiqi was dumbfounded. Did Jiang Xiaoyun finish ordering so many dishes?!
Besides, he clearly didn't eat greasy food, but he ordered several plates of braised meat and fish...
"It's your turn to order." After jiang xiaoyun ordered all the dishes, he gracefully handed the menu to Lan Qiqi and asked her to order.
"... Jiang xiaoyun ordered so many dishes, does she need to order more?
Almost all the dishes were ordered by him, and there was no need for her to order anything else. Besides, there were more than twenty dishes that two people could not finish!
Jiang Xiaoyun's face was as cold as an ice cellar. Lan Qiqi glanced at the menu and shook his head. "My... Favorite dishes are all in your order."
"Well, just order these dishes. It's not enough. It's your treat today anyway." Jiang Xiaoyun stared straight at Lan Qiqi, still dissatisfied with what Lan Qiqi had just done.
"... Jiang Xiaoyun wanted to eat her wallet flat on purpose!
Damn, the man in front of me is so dark!
"Qiqi, have you all ordered yet?" Lan Qiqi and Duo La were her regular customers. As soon as the proprietress came up, she went into Lan Qiqi and Jiang Xiaoyun's private room and ordered for them.
"All ordered." Lan Qiqi was particularly upset and handed the menu to the proprietress.
Especially heartbroken about her purse...
This meal, Jiang Xiaoyun almost ate up half a month's salary!
The proprietress took it and glanced at it. However, when she saw the menu full of dishes, she was stunned for a second.
"Qiqi, can the two of you finish eating?" The landlady thought that Lan Qiqi and jiang xiaoyun had ordered a little too much!
"I'm the king of the stomach. I can eat as much as I want." Lan Qiqi was just about to reply to the boss's wife when jiang xiaoyun got ahead.
"... The proprietress looked at Lan Qiqi doubtfully.
"Madame, Mr. Jiang is very good at eating. Don't worry about adding more food to him." Lan Qiqi's heart was bleeding, and his heart ached to death for his silver. But in order not to make Jiang Xiaoyun angry, Lan Qiqi resisted.
"Then you wait." The proprietress took the menu and went downstairs.
"Mr. Jiang, have some water first." Afraid that Jiang Xiaoyun would be bored, Lan Qiqi poured him a glass of water and ordered so many dishes that it would take him a long time to serve them.
"Heartache for your own money?"
"No heartache..." No heartache is fake!
Half a month's salary, half a month!
"As long as it doesn't hurt." Jiang Xiaoyun thought to himself, damn, if I had known better, I would have seen Lan Qiqi realize that he had said something wrong!
"Here you go, cold seaweed salad." The waiter brought a plate of simple cold sauce.
"It's finally served. I'm so hungry." Lan Qiqi mumbled to the side, but Jiang Xiaoyun didn't move his chopsticks with the dish.
Lan Qiqi couldn't help but ask, "Don't you like seaweed?"
"How can you say it so lightly?" Jiang Xiaoyun raised his eyebrows.
"... What a hard young master to serve!
How picky is eating a meal!
How many people in china's remote areas can't even eat, and Jiang Xiaoyun is still here to pick and choose!
"Stir-fried kelp is delicious. Try it." I'm so depressed. What's wrong with this?!
Lan Qiqi felt confused for a moment.
"No."
"... No, not at all. Jiang Xiaoyun was trying to squeeze himself!
What did she do to offend the young master jiang in front of her?
Oh, forget it. He won't eat it. He'll eat it himself.
Lan Qiqi picked up the chopsticks and ate them slowly.
After a while, the shop assistant served a few more dishes, and Jiang Xiaoyun did not eat them for a while. Lan Qiqi understood this time that Jiang Xiaoyun really did it on purpose!
However, he was Big boss, and Lan Qiqi didn't dare to say anything, so he lowered his head and ate there himself.
However, just after the dishes were served, before he had eaten a few dishes, jiang xiaoyun stood up and said that he was full!
Lan Qiqi was shocked. She had just eaten a little, and he was full when she was hungry?!
"I... I... I'm not full yet..." Lan Qiqi touched her stomach pitifully.
"Then you can eat here slowly!" Jiang Xiaoyun snorted, turned around and wanted to leave, his grim face not knowing how gloomy it was.
Lan Qiqi was at a loss.
Is Jiang Xiaoyun angry?
He's been getting more and more stingy lately, losing his temper all the time...
"Mr. Jiang, wait a minute. I'll go with you. But before we leave, let me pack these dishes. There are so many dishes, most of them have never touched their chopsticks. It's too wasteful to pour them out." Lan Qiqi sighed helplessly and went downstairs to get the lunch box. He packed up all the food and took it away.
Jiang Xiaoyun was fine just now. What happened to him?
Along the way, Jiang Xiaoyun was driving silently, and Lan Qiqi was carrying a large bag of food without saying a word. As he passed by the welfare home, Lan Qiqi suddenly shouted, "Stop the car."
"Where are you going?" Jiang Xiaoyun finally opened his mouth.
"I want to send these meals to the welfare home, where the government has taken in a lot of homeless people with mental retardation, and some disabled people who have been abandoned. They have no relatives, no ability to take care of themselves, and sometimes they can't even eat. It's wrong for us to waste so much food." Jiang Xiaoyun grew up with no worries about food and clothing. It could even be said that every day he lived was incomparably superior and there was nothing missing. Lan Qiqi did not know if jiang xiaoyun could understand this principle.
As soon as the car stopped, Lan Qiqi ignored Jiang Xiaoyun's anger, pushed open the door, and ran to the welfare home with two bags of food.
"Hello, Lan Qiqi..."
Looking at the thin figure, Jiang Xiaoyun was stunned.
Is that woman Lan Qiqi lecturing him?!
But seeing her go in alone, Jiang Xiaoyun followed her.
As soon as he entered the welfare home, Jiang Xiaoyun saw that the yard was filled with people with mental retardation. They were either disabled or retarded. They were eating, but even with such a simple action, some people couldn't do it on their own and needed the help of others to fill their stomachs. Seeing this scene, Jiang Xiaoyun was shocked.
He looked at Lan Qiqi carrying the packed dishes, one by one, to the people who had been deprived of their ability to survive, and at her tiny figure busy, until she finished dividing the box in her hand, Lan Qiqi walked up to him and called Jiang Xiaoyun back to his senses.
"Let's go. It's time to go back. You have to work this afternoon." Lan Qiqi buried her head in the front and felt that the gap between her and Jiang Xiaoyun was too big. One was a godsend, and she was never a dazzling person. There were too many barriers between them, and now she just wanted to find her home as soon as possible.
