Ji Mengqing held her daughter's hand and walked into the restaurant with a happy expression on her face. This "romantic" restaurant is the fruit of her hard work. From its establishment to decoration, she did everything herself. Now that the restaurant's business is finally on the right track, she can finally rest assured and don't have to worry about everything. A single mother has to take care of such a big business and a young daughter. Sometimes she also feels very tired. However, every time she sees her daughter's innocent and lovely face, she feels extremely happy in her heart.
For her, her daughter is now everything to her. Even if she is exhausted, it is all worth it.
When entering the restaurant, Ji Mengqing casually glanced around and suddenly froze. She stared in astonishment at the young man in the corner who was dressed in a rustic style. When the daughter, Boung, saw her mother suddenly stop, she looked at her curiously and called out, "Mom, why aren't you leaving?"
Hearing her daughter's call, Ji Mengqing woke up from her daze, smiled kindly at her daughter and said, "Let's go." Then she took her daughter's hand and walked towards her office, her eyes still glancing at the man in the corner from time to time along the way.
This man made such a deep impression on her that if it weren't for her, she would have died in a foreign land long ago. Although two years have passed, the image of that man has always been deeply engraved in my mind. Sometimes, on lonely nights, the imposing image of that man would quietly climb up one's mind.
Over the past two years, she has also tried to inquire about his news, but to no avail. But I never expected to see him in my own restaurant today.
After arriving at the office, my daughter, Bung Bung, sat obediently on the sofa, eating snacks and having a great time playing with the doll by herself.
Ye Qian clearly didn't notice that someone was observing him from the shadows. After all, he was having dinner with Lin Rou Rou now, so there was no need for him to be on edge. When it comes to eating, one should relax. When the waiter recommended those dishes to him, Ye Qian gave a faint smile. Although the waiter pretended well, Ye Qian could still catch a hint of contempt in her eyes. He didn't pursue it. Ye Qian had seen so many people like her who always looked at others through tinted glasses that there was no need for him to be as critical as her. Moreover, he felt very happy having meals with Lin Rourou and was too lazy to care too much about it. However, since it was the first time to treat Lin Rourou to a meal, Ye Qian, such a kind girl, naturally couldn't bear to let her suffer any injustice. So when the waiter deliberately recommended those expensive steaks, caviar and red wine, he didn't refuse.
While "Rourou" was having a meal with the two of them, a young woman came over with a young man's arm and said.
Lin Rou Rou looked up at her in surprise and said with delight, "Yaying, you are Xu Yaying. Where are you working now?" Lin Rou Rou didn't expect to run into classmates from the health school here and was very happy.
I work in the Family Planning Bureau. Being a nurse has no future. My boyfriend doesn't want me to be too tired either, so he pushed me into the family Planning bureau. Now I'm on the public service payroll and can be considered a civil servant. "Are you still working as a nurse at the People's Hospital?" Xu Yaying said with a hint of pride.
"Yeah," Lin Rourou said indifferently, showing no reaction to Xu Yaying's smug attitude.
"Rou Rou, I really don't understand you. With your conditions, it's not that easy for you to get a good job. Why do you have to be a hard and tiring nurse?" Xu Yaying looked very concerned about Lin Rourou, but in fact, she was hinting at her own intelligence and how vigorous she was now.
Lin Rourou gave a faint smile and said, "I really like the job of a nurse. Although it's tiring, I'm very happy doing it."
Xu Yaying shook her head and changed the subject, saying, "Rou Rou, let me introduce you. This is my boyfriend, Zhao Xie. He works at the District Justice Bureau and will soon be transferred to the municipal committee." Xu Yaying's smug look on her face was a bit disgusting just to see. When Xu Yaying was at school, she was constantly outshone by Lin Rou Rou in terms of theoretical knowledge and practical operation skills in nursing. She was not as good as Lin Rou Rou. In terms of appearance, she is no match for Lin Rourou. But all of this is no longer important to her now. No matter how outstanding Lin Rourou was back then, she is still outshone by her now.
After hearing Xu Yaying's introduction, Ye Qian, who had been drinking red wine in silence all along, couldn't help but burst out laughing with a "puchi" sound. He secretly thought to himself, "What name is not good? Why should it be called premature ejaculation?" Seeing the three of them turn their blank eyes towards him, Ye Qian smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, it's okay. I just remembered a joke. You guys go on."
"Rou Rou, is this your boyfriend? Why don't you introduce him?" "Handsome guy, where can I find my place?" Xu Yaying asked. Although she called Ye Qian "handsome guy", her expression clearly indicated that this title was merely a formality. She didn't look down upon a rustic old man like Ye Qian at all.
Lin Rourou had only known Ye Qian for two days, and they had only met a few times. Therefore, she was not very clear about what kind of work Ye Qian did. Hearing Xu Yaying say that Ye Qian was her boyfriend, Lin Rourou couldn't help blushing slightly, but she didn't say anything in opposition.
"I wouldn't dare to be so high. I work as a security guard in a company." Ye Qian said indifferently.
Hearing Ye Qian's reply, Xu Yaying and Zhao Xie obviously showed a look of contempt. They were both young talents with bright futures and were at the peak of their success. How could they take an ordinary security guard seriously? Xu Yaying was even more smug, thinking to herself, "No matter how beautiful Lin Rou Rou is, her boyfriend is still a security guard. It's a job of just getting by and waiting to die. There's no future for him in his life."
"By the way, Rou Rou, today is Ouyang's birthday. We're going to the bar to celebrate. You come along too." " Xu Yaying said very politely, but anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that she had no sincerity at all. She had always just wanted to continue mocking Lin Rou Rou and hurting her.
Lin Rourou is a well-behaved girl. She has never been to a place like a bar in her life. Hearing Xu Yaying's words, she turned her expectant eyes to Ye Qian. Ye Qian shook his head secretly, thinking to himself, "What a simple girl!" However, since Lin Rourou wants to go, Ye Qian will naturally accompany her. Nodding slightly, Ye Qian said, "Tell us the place. We'll go there after the meal."
"Ok. Drunken Bar, eight o 'clock in the evening." Xu Yaying said, "See you then." Having said that, Xu Yaying proudly held Zhao Xie's arm and walked out of the restaurant. Throughout the entire process, Zhao Xie didn't say a word. It wasn't that he had any grace, but rather that he was so haughty that he believed someone like Xiang Yeqian had no right to deal with him at all.
