Soon, the two of them were chatting while eating, and the whole meal was spent in such nonsense.

As a result, until everyone finished eating, Cao Zhiqiang didn't think about what excuse he would use to spend money on Deng Lijun.

Fortunately, Cao Zhiqiang's mentality is relatively optimistic now, so he can forget about it and doesn't force it.

Anyway, according to the nature of this system, you may encounter more "harem candidates" in the future and bind them if you have the opportunity, but whether you should implement it or not depends on the situation.

If you bind one and run one, then you don't have to do anything else and you can just pick up girls all day long.

But life is not just about picking up girls, nor is it just about blindly listening to what the system says.

In fact, Cao Zhiqiang has discovered long ago that every time the system wants you to do something, it will give generous rewards to induce you to do something.

It is true that the benefits given are good, but if you are just doing tasks and getting benefits, you will really become a puppet of the system.

If you want to be the master of the system, not a puppet, the key is self-control.

Knowing how to give up and refuse appropriately is the only way to be a master.

Now, maybe it's just an opportunity.

"Oh, I'm full. I can't eat anymore if I eat more."

Teresa Teng smiled playfully, and then said to Cao Zhiqiang: "It's really interesting to chat with you. I'm very glad that I met you, and I'm very glad that I had the courage to ask you for an autograph. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to talk to you.

acknoledged."

Speaking of this, Teresa Teng sighed: "To be honest, I haven't been as happy as I am now for a long time."

Cao Zhiqiang smiled lightly and said: "Okay, I'm going to go out to do some errands next. What about you, what are you going to do?"

Teresa Teng thought for a while and said: "Well, I don't have any good plans. I originally wanted to go out for a walk, but now I'm too thin and a little sleepy. I suddenly want to go back to the room to sleep, hehe."

In response, Cao Zhiqiang shook his head: "Okay, let's just say goodbye."

At this point, Cao Zhiqiang raised his hand and called the waiter to come over and pay.

But at this moment, Teresa Teng suddenly said: "Hey, wait, I'll do it."

Cao Zhiqiang frowned and looked at Teresa Deng deliberately with a straight face: "What do you mean by this? Are you afraid that I won't have the money to give you?"

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant." Teresa Teng waved her hands quickly, "Don't get me wrong!"

"Then what do you mean?" Cao Zhiqiang continued to ask with a straight face.

Teresa Teng was stunned for a moment: "Well, I just think it's inappropriate for us to rashly ask you to treat us just after we met. At the very least, each of us should pay half.

This, if you feel offended, then I apologize to you and say I'm sorry.

I really didn't mean to look down on you, really.

I'm just, I'm just familiar with the way things are done in the United States."

Cao Zhiqiang suddenly smiled: "Okay, no need to explain, I understand, it's an AA system.

There's no need to panic, I was just joking with you.

In fact, I should be happy if someone can help me with the checkout.

But forget it this time.

After all, this is Xiangjiang, and it is best to follow the rules here.

Here, when men and women eat together, the man usually pays the bill.

So, let me settle the bill this time, and you can invite me next time. Didn’t you say so before?"

Teresa Teng smiled awkwardly: "It seems so, hehehe, look at my brain, hehehe."

Cao Zhiqiang shook his head again, then decisively raised his hand and called the waiter to come over and pay.

When the waiter came over and Cao Zhiqiang paid the bill by swiping his credit card, he planned to leave.

However, for some unknown reason, Teresa Teng unexpectedly followed him and walked alongside him.

There were many people in the restaurant before, so Cao Zhiqiang didn't say anything.

After leaving the restaurant and reaching the elevator entrance, Cao Zhiqiang couldn't help but ask: "Why are you still following me?"

"Forehead……"

Teresa Teng was obviously taken aback, but soon smiled and said: "No, I'm just here to take the elevator, I don't want to follow you."

Cao Zhiqiang thought about it and nodded: "I see, I'm sorry, I'm too sensitive."

At this moment, the elevator door suddenly opened, and Cao Zhiqiang turned around and saw that many people were already standing in the elevator.

But the most surprising thing is one of the very familiar faces.

"Brother Cheng Long?" Cao Zhiqiang subconsciously opened his mouth.

Yes, at this moment, at the front of the group of people in the elevator, stood a young man who was not very tall and looked very enthusiastic and candid. He was none other than the famous Chinese and foreign superstar, Jack Chen!

That's right, at least before Cao Zhiqiang's past life time travel, if any Chinese star could be famous both at home and abroad and received the most recognition from foreigners, it would probably be Cheng Long and Chen Gangsheng.

Before him, although there was Bruce Lee, Bruce Lee passed away too early and had too few works. Strictly speaking, his international influence was not very great.

Cheng Long is really the only person who can truly represent the image of the Chinese and have international influence.

No matter what his reputation is later, no matter how many women he has, how many affairs he has, or how many ridiculous things he has said, such as saying that he is half Korean, nothing can erase his international status.

with influence.

Of course, what interests Cao Zhiqiang the most is his relationship with Teresa Teng.

In his previous life, Cheng Long once revealed that he had been in love with Teresa Teng once.

Unfortunately, those are just Cheng Long's words, so I don't know whether they are true or false.

Now, I finally have a chance to verify it.

Thinking of this, the corners of Cao Zhiqiang's mouth turned up and he stared at Cheng Long's face.

Sure enough, when Cheng Long discovered Cao Zhiqiang and Deng Lijun, he was immediately stunned. He was chatting and laughing with a group of good brothers behind him, but he suddenly stopped talking.

Not only was he silent, but the group of brothers behind him, or members of the family class, each one at this time, also stopped talking, and they were all staring at one person.

That person is naturally not Cao Zhiqiang, but Teresa Deng.

Cao Zhiqiang turned his head slightly to look, and sure enough, Deng Lijun's face turned pale at this time, biting her lips, avoiding eye contact with Cheng Long, and subconsciously retreating.

It was obvious that the two knew each other, and there was something going on between them.

"Ajun? Why are you here?" Cheng Long suddenly walked out and said to Teresa Deng.

Teresa Deng didn't answer, but shook her head vigorously. Then she realized that retreating like this was not an option, so she suddenly ran to Cao Zhiqiang and directly put her arm on Cao Zhiqiang's arm.

It seemed that after putting an arm in Cao Zhiqiang's hand, Teresa Teng finally gained some courage.

After taking a deep breath, Teresa Teng faced Cheng Long's gaze, her face turned pale, and she said with a cold expression: "Sorry, you are not familiar with me, don't call me that!"

"Ah..." Cheng Long opened his mouth, but finally did not call Ajun out.

Soon, Cheng Long adjusted his mood and forced a smile. Then he looked at Cao Zhiqiang and asked Teresa Deng: "Hey, this junior is a bit unfamiliar. Who are you?"

"He is my boyfriend." Teresa Teng said with a straight face.

"Ah? Boyfriend?" Cheng Long was stunned again.

Cao Zhiqiang was also a little embarrassed, but because Teresa Teng was holding his arm at this time and leaning closely against him, Cao Zhiqiang noticed the trembling on Teresa Teng's body. Knowing that she was nervous, he did not expose her.

Forget it, if you are being used as a shield, just use it as a shield. Anyway, you won't lose a piece of meat.

At least, Cheng Long couldn't do anything to himself for this reason.

Thinking of this, Cao Zhiqiang took the initiative and smiled at Cheng Long and nodded: "Hello, Cao Zhiqiang, nice to meet you, Mr. Cheng Long."

Cheng Long frowned, but he stretched out his hand not to hit the smiling person. In addition, this was still a public place, so he nodded to Cao Zhiqiang: "Hello, Mr. Cao."

But soon, Cheng Long looked at Cao Zhiqiang suspiciously: "Are you really in a relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend?"

Before Cao Zhiqiang could speak, Teresa Deng took the lead and said: "It has nothing to do with you, does it have anything to do with you?"

"me……"

After thinking about it for a long time, Cheng Long got stuck again and didn't know what to say.

"Aqiang, let's go!" Teresa Teng tightened Cao Zhiqiang's arm again and continued to say with a straight face, "I don't want to see this annoying person again."

Since Teresa Deng had spoken like this, Cao Zhiqiang had no choice but to smile at Cheng Long, and then left with Teresa Deng.

Of course, since Cheng Long and his group were blocking the elevator entrance, Cao Zhiqiang and Teresa Teng did not take the elevator, but took the stairs.

When Cao Zhiqiang and Teresa Teng came to the stairwell and walked a few steps, Deng Lijun suddenly let go of Cao Zhiqiang's arm, then sat down on the steps, covering her face with her hands and started crying.

Seeing this situation, Cao Zhiqiang first subconsciously looked around.

After confirming that there were no outsiders, Cao Zhiqiang sat down next to Teresa Teng and presented him with a handkerchief.

"Thanks."

After Teresa Teng thanked her, she took the handkerchief and began to wipe her eyes.

"You're welcome." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, and then continued to sit next to Teresa Teng in silence.
