Chapter 137: Make peace with what you have come
In a luxurious restaurant, Zhang Lin was standing in the lobby. Just when she was about to ask the waiter, she saw Mu Cheng waving to her. Zhang Lin and Mu Cheng sat down together, and the atmosphere seemed very warm and luxurious. Zhang Lin had never experienced this before.
After such a dining experience, she began to worry about paying the bill and whether she had enough money. She quickly picked up the menu, pretended to be elegant, and browsed casually. However, the price number on the menu left her stunned. 588,999
, 1288 and other numbers surprised her one after another. She realized that the price of a large table of meals at the company dinner might just be the price of one dish here. However, she immediately changed her mind. After all, there were only two of them.
Order up to three dishes. She gritted her teeth and reluctantly accepted this fact.
Zhang Lin politely asked Mu Cheng to order, and said that she would pay the bill today as a thank you for Mu Cheng's rescue that day. Mu Cheng sat opposite Zhang Lin and took the menu with a smile, clapped his hands gently, and signaled the waiter to come over.
The waiter came over respectfully and asked with a smile: "Sir, what dishes would you like to order?" Mu Cheng smiled faintly, glanced at the various delicacies on the menu, and then said confidently: "Let's order some
The luxurious set menu includes fresh seafood platter, roast beef, French foie gras, black truffle pasta and top-notch red wine." Zhang Lin struggled a little while listening to Mu Cheng's order, but still nodded with a smile, and then
She said to the waiter: "Just follow what this gentleman said." The waiter took the order respectfully, smiled and was about to turn around and leave. Suddenly, Zhang Lin said: "I'll take a look at the menu again to see if there is anything I want to add." She said
She took the menu and found the price of the luxury package that Mu Cheng had just mentioned. She was shocked by the number 5188. This was her two months' salary, and it was hard to say whether she had that much money in her card now. In order to suppress
Feeling embarrassed, she pretended to be elegant and handed it to the waiter again, saying: "Forget it, if there is nothing suitable, let's just leave it like this!"
Mu Cheng looked at Zhang Lin, noticed her strange expression, and probably guessed what she was thinking. Recently, Zhang Lin had been wanting to have dinner with him, but due to the fish pond incident, he had been busy these days and had no time to talk to him.
She met. However, today he finally finished handling the affairs and suddenly remembered Zhang Lin's invitation, so he decided to take the initiative to treat her to a meal. This restaurant was recommended by Li Jing when he had dinner with her a few days ago, and he also wanted to try it.
.However, he watched Zhang Lin's expression change when she was looking at the menu. Although she had always behaved very elegantly, Mu Cheng noticed her instant change. He found it all very interesting, so he chose to remain silent and not break the atmosphere.
.
After the waiter left, Zhang Lin remained silent and stared at the plate in front of her. The atmosphere became awkward. Mu Cheng observed quietly, his heart full of curiosity. He really wanted to open Zhang Lin's memory fragments and take a look.
The story behind it. However, he restrained his curiosity and chose to stay quiet.
Zhang Lin was grateful and had been thinking about treating Mu Cheng to a meal to express her gratitude. However, when she was ordering the food, she began to waver. Suddenly she remembered some things about wine and rice trays that she had heard her colleagues talking about before.
, which made her feel uneasy. Every dish in this restaurant was expensive, and there were only two of them but they ordered such rich dishes. What made her feel even more wrong was a bottle of red wine, which seemed to be much more expensive than what was on the market.
Much. This made her angrier the more she thought about it. The tall and glorious image of Mu Cheng in her heart began to change. However, she kept telling herself that this time it was to express her gratitude to him. After all, he saved her, and it didn't matter even if he was killed.
, just once.
After thinking, Zhang Lin raised her head and saw the red wine that had been poured. She picked up the wine glass and said, "Mu Cheng, thank you very much! Here's a toast to you." Mu Cheng looked at Zhang Lin and thought her words were a bit strange. Although
So, he still raised his glass and clinked it with her. He took a sip and just put down the glass, but found that Zhang Lin's glass was empty and drank it all in one sip. At this time, Mu Cheng felt a little embarrassed.
Is a lady so generous? As a man, he felt that he seemed a bit petty. At this time, he didn't know whether he should pick up the glass again and continue drinking, or wait for the next glass before drinking.
Zhang Lin saw that Mu Cheng only took a sip of red wine. She did not realize that red wine should be savored slowly. Instead, she was even more convinced that Mu Cheng was a wine waiter and deliberately ordered so many dishes, but she did not move her chopsticks much.
She was worried that there might be more accidents waiting for her. She considered slamming the table and getting up to leave immediately, but she looked around and observed the surrounding situation. She didn't know whether she was a little scared or was comforting herself to thank others. In short,
, she took no action.
Suddenly, Zhang Lin thought that she should take care of herself. Since she had ordered so many dishes, she would try to eat as much as possible to make up for her loss. She speeded up her eating speed and ate hungrily. Mu Cheng looked at Zhang opposite him.
Lin, confused by her sudden behavior, had no idea what she was doing.
At this moment, Zhang Lin's cell phone suddenly rang. When she saw the caller ID, she had a headache expression on her face. The call was from her boss, and she hesitated, not knowing whether to answer it or not. However, she thought
There was no need to maintain a good image in front of Mu Cheng, so she answered the phone decisively. But as soon as she put it to her ear, she took the phone away again. The reason was that the voice on the other end of the phone was full of anger and questioning her. Originally
, she wanted to apologize to her boss, but when she thought about it, her boss always asked her to socialize and drink. If it hadn't been for socializing so late, she wouldn't have had to take a taxi home, and she wouldn't have encountered what happened that day. She had something to do today,
But she was forced to participate in the entertainment, and Mu Cheng's tall and glorious image collapsed instantly, making her feel that the whole world became gray, and she felt very wronged. She put the phone close to her ear, and suddenly shouted emotionally
: "I said something happened, don't you understand?" Then she hung up the phone, then lay on the table and cried bitterly.
Mu Cheng was shocked when he witnessed what he saw. The surrounding restaurant guests also turned to their tables. Mu Cheng had never experienced such a situation. He couldn't stand a woman crying, but today it seemed that it had nothing to do with him! The waiter looked at
At this scene, he walked towards them, patted Zhang Lin's shoulder lightly, and asked with concern what happened. Then he said to Mu Cheng: "Sir, please come over and comfort your girlfriend!" Zhang Lin hurriedly heard this.
