Xiao Qi never liked eating Western food, let alone half-cooked food.
So even when he attends banquets abroad or invites people to dinner, Xiao Qi most often orders cooked lamb chops, duck, goose, etc.
No one dares to say that Xiao Qi is old-fashioned. When a person's wealth is inferior to that of everyone else, then whatever he does is naturally correct.
But among Xiao Qi's wives, most of them like to eat Western food. Huo Zhuzhu, Yang Na, Su Xiaomei, Ling Shuangshuang, Mi Jiayan, Li Shaozhi, little Taylor... all like it.
Of course, wives prefer the atmosphere of Western food.
Every girl has a dream of Prince Charming and a romantic expectation in her heart.
Therefore, the romantic atmosphere created by Western food is most suitable for dates.
It won't be too formal and deserted like a Chinese banquet, or like a hot pot, where the mouth is full of oil and the market taste.
For example, today, Mi Jiayan and Xiao Qi were eating Western food in the Western restaurant of Rongjiang Hotel.
Rongjiang Hotel is not the most luxurious in Rongcheng, but its status is different. As an old brand and the most important hotel received by the government, it is simple and old and has a high status.
Because of this, although its food and accommodation are not cheap, the quality is guaranteed.
Mi Jiayan ordered a medium-rare veal steak, and Xiao Qi ordered a well-cooked lamb chop, which cost more than 2,000.
Oh, by the way, there was a kid sitting next to me. He ordered fried chicken steak and potato chips, plus a cup of ice cream, and the price was more than 500.
Looking at her daughter who was happily eating ice cream, Mi Jiayan looked at Xiao Qi with anger.
It was originally said that the two of them would have a romantic candlelight dinner, but somehow, Mi Jiayan was spotted by Mi Xiaozhen when she went out. Seeing her mother go out dressed so beautifully, she had to go with him life or death, and was pestered for a long time.
There was no way to persuade her to give up.
When Xiao Qi arrived, when he saw this situation, he hugged Mi Xiaozhen and got into the car without saying a word.
Although Mi Xiaozhen burst into tears and laughed, Mi Jiayan was a little helpless.
Although she looks angry on the outside, her heart is sweeter than honey.
She is already a woman who has given birth to a daughter. What she worries most about getting married for the second time is that her husband does not want to see her daughter. If she waits until the next child is born, it will be even more troublesome and there will definitely be constant conflicts in the family.
But marrying Xiao Qi does not have such worries, because Xiao Qi loves Mi Xiaozhen to the point of doting, and sometimes the relationship between the two makes Mi Jiayan jealous.
Take this time for example. It was supposed to be a candlelight dinner. Why did you bring a child to sit next to you? Could it be that with Mi Xiaozhen here, you could still say those disgusting love words?
But Xiao Qi didn't think so.
"The purpose of love is to lead to marriage after all, and children are one of the most important parts of marriage. Whose life is not about eating, drinking, and having sex? Who doesn't take care of children? In that case, what's the point?"
Listening to these words, Mi Jiayan just wanted to roll her eyes, thinking that this guy was not romantic at all.
But not being romantic doesn't mean Mi Jiayan doesn't like it. On the contrary, Mi Jiayan feels her eyes are a little moist.
Only women who have experienced vicissitudes of life know the beauty of a down-to-earth life.
The fact that Xiao Qi can say this proves that he is not just pursuing romance between the couple, but is already able to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the family, which is enough to make Mi Jiayan and Mi Xiaozhen live happily.
For a divorced woman with a daughter, isn't this enough?
However, superficial arrogance is still necessary.
At least when classmate Mi Xiaozhen was eating ice cream excitedly, Mi Jiayan was scolding her daughter, and then scolding Xiao Qi... It was like an ordinary family of three eating out, chattering but warm.
Halfway through the meal, there was a loud noise outside the restaurant. Although there were not many people in the Western restaurant, many people frowned and turned their heads to look.
I originally thought that the accident would stop soon. But the noise became louder and louder.
Mi Xiaozhen was still a child and she always liked liveliness. When she heard the noise, she knelt down from the back of the sofa and looked towards the door of the restaurant where the noise came from.
But after just one glance, she was so frightened that she quickly shrank back. Xiao Qi, who was opposite, noticed that her face instantly turned pale.
"What's wrong, baby?" Xiao Qi asked quickly.
"Dad..." Mi Xiaozhen murmured subconsciously.
Xiao Qi laughed when he heard this. Mi Xiaozhen now called him "Dad", which sounded very comfortable. "What did you see? Don't be afraid, Dad is here!"
"No, no, it's dad..." Mi Xiaozhen shook her head desperately, pulled Mi Jiayan's little dress beside her, and said with fear and panic: "It's him who's here..."
Mi Jiayan felt something was wrong. She stood up and turned around to take a look. Then her face changed, and her face became colder when she sat down.
Xiao Qi heard the meaning of the conversation between the two mothers and daughters, put down his knife and fork, reached over, and held the hands of the two mothers and daughters.
After a while, Mi Jiayan's expression returned to normal, "Okay, it's okay with me... Baby, don't worry about him. Your dad is across the way. Do you want a hug from dad?"
Mi Xiaozhen nodded quickly, rushed over and fell into Xiao Qi's arms.
The young man noticed that the little girl was still shaking a little, so he quickly hugged her tighter.
It seems that Mi Jiayan's ex-husband left a really bad impression on the two mother and daughter.
Xiao Qi heard Su Xiaomei say that after Mi Jiayan found out that her ex-husband had a mistress, her first reaction was to divorce, but the man refused because Mi Jiayan's father was the executive deputy mayor of Rongcheng City.
, can bring many benefits to his work.
So he begged and promised not to find another woman, but Mi Jiayan refused to forgive him.
Seeing that the matter was irreversible, the man began to show his ferocious side, smashing things at home, drunkenly yelling at Mi Jiayan every day, and even beating Mi Xiaozhen... Such a situation naturally caused a lot of damage to the little girl.
A very deep shadow.
In the end, it was Wu Xiaowen who took action and directly broke his legs and hands. The man showed his cowardly side, cried out for mercy, and obediently signed the divorce agreement.
Originally, he was divorced, and Wu Xiaowen was not willing to spare this guy who bullied his niece and grand-niece. He chased him and beat him several times. In the end, he couldn't afford it, so he cried and knelt in front of Mi Jiayan to beg for mercy.
, Wu Xiaowen really might have driven him to death.
To be honest, if a man goes to find a mistress, it is not a big deal.
But such a shameless man with no sense of responsibility or self-awareness is very disgusting.
As his thoughts were passing by, a middle-aged man ran over there in small steps. When he arrived at Xiao Qi's table, he bent down and said to Mi Jiayan in a low voice: "Are you Ms. Mi Jiayan? That person outside.
The husband said he wanted to see you... He is so noisy, you see..."
Mi Jiayan reserved the seat with her own name, so people in the restaurant would know where she sat.
Mi Jiayan's face darkened, "I don't know him, what did you do? Drive him away!"
"We're on our way, but he's playing tricks on the ground. We can't knock him unconscious and throw him out, right?" The supervisor said with a bitter smile, "Please, don't worry, we'll send security to follow him, he won't dare to do anything.
.”
"I'll go!"
Xiao Qi stood up and handed Mi Xiaozhen to Mi Jiayan, "Don't worry, I will take care of it!"
"Um!"
Mi Jiayan looked at Xiao Qi, and a warm current flowed in her heart.
What a good thing it is to have someone you can rely on at critical times!
…
Outside the restaurant, Zhu Cong looked inside anxiously.
Several security guards standing at the door were like several walls, blocking him from entering. Several sturdy men who were sitting in the large open space in the corridor also looked at him with unkind eyes, asking him to
More impatient.
After finally finding out that Mi Jiayan was eating here today, he definitely wanted to see Mi Jiayan.
At this time, a young man came out, glanced at Zhu Cong and walked over.
"Are you Zhu Cong?" the young man asked calmly.
Looking at this decadent man with a beard, it is hard to imagine that he is actually Mi Jiayan's classmate. In other words, he is not yet 30 years old, but he is so sloppy and decadent. It seems that he has not lived a good life in the past two years.
"Yes, I am... who are you?" Zhu Cong looked at him doubtfully.
"I am Jiajia's boyfriend. My surname is Xiao. If you have anything to say to me!" Xiao Qi said.
"I, I want to borrow some money from her!" Zhu Cong hesitated, "You'd better ask her to come out and talk to me."
When he heard that Xiao Qi was Mi Jiayan's boyfriend, Zhu Cong didn't show any hatred, which surprised Xiao Qi.
I originally thought he was just looking for trouble, but it turned out that he wasn't.
But Xiao Qi will not let him see Mi Jiayan and Mi Xiaozhen, otherwise he will scare his good daughter. Who will be responsible?
After thinking about it, Xiao Qi said, "It's easy to talk about borrowing money. How much do you want to borrow? What will you use it for?"
"My wife...my current wife is pregnant with a child, but her health is very poor. The doctor said that we must go to a hospital in the capital to save both adults and children, and it will cost a lot of medical expenses. I don't have that much money.
, so..." Zhu Cong begged: "I know I am not a thing, but I beg her to help me because of our many years of friendship! My wife and child have two lives!"
Xiao Qi was surprised when he heard this, "Really?"
Zhu Cong glared at Xiao Qi, "Is this still false? She is currently hospitalized in West China, how could I joke about something like this? I have been divorced for so long, have I come to trouble her? If it weren't for my wife and children,
Can I come to her?"
"Then just wait a moment!"
Xiao Qi thought for a while, turned around and walked back to the restaurant.
